Yeah I found these, but for some reason it wont install for me. basically I open it, and it runs though its installation but then craps out saying there is an 'error creating file' and after that it says "You do not have enough access priviledges for this installation, which is bogus because Im logged in as administrator.
Oh Im on Mac OS X 10.4.8 by the way.

You might try becoming the root user -- you have to set this up as I recall. I've done it, but I can't remember how (use Google).

Alternatively you might try "down grading" to an earlier Mac OS (a pain yes, but maybe worth it).

also try the british version

maybe it has the owner settings right.

Oh and there's always vuescan.

Try using the disk utility (located in /Applications/Utilities) to verify and repair disk permissions. Good chance it can find what folder/file is causing it and correct it.

Its leads to the same software, thanks for trying though.

I thought about doing that and its been quite a while since I did it last time... fingers X'd.

I had a scanner that had no OSX drivers but when I installed Vuescan it started working.

Drivers!?! Who Needs Drivers???

Awesome! You made me very happy!

I have read elseware it is no longer supported for latest MAC . One reason I still have a PC.

Go get Vue Scan and it will work. Shame once you figured out how to work KM software.

Well, Im a very happy boy. I got my camera at the beginning of the summer and since have shot through hundreds of rolls of film, and originally I thought I would just have a lab scan them for me which I did for four rolls and it cost me $10 a pop. So I figured I would just get 'some kind of a scanner' and use it until I could afford something better, and of course a few months have gone by and I am deep into the hundreds of neg pages and until yesterday didnt get a scanner, so I have a lot of work to do.
Ill be posting a new thread here about getting the best out of it.

Thanks to you all for your help.
