W7 compatible driver for canoscan lide 35 - Canon CanoScan LiDE 35 Flatbed Scanner

Guide to installing Canon CanoScan LiDE 35, 50 and 60 on Mac OS X 10.8. Mountain Lion:

FIRST PART: DELETING OLD LiDE DRIVERS AND SOFTWARE

• If this is the first attempt to install the scanner, skip this part

• Trash the following files/folders from these folders:

HD:/Library/Image Capture/Twain Data Sources

delete the CanoScan CanoScan XXXX.ds file

(Make note of any other files that may be in this folder. If other files are present, move them to the desktop for now. Then place them back after successfully using the scanner.)

HD:/Library/Preferences

delete the 'CanoScan XXXX' folder

HD:/Users/Shared

delete the folders containing the name CanoScan, or starting with CNQL.

HD:/Applications

delete the CanoScan Toolbox Application

HD:/Users/YOUR-MAC-USERNAME/Library/Preferences

delete any items named "CanoScan Toolbox"

• Restart your computer, then empty the trash

SECOND PART: MAKING YOUR SCANNER WORK

• Make sure your scanner is well connected

• Download the right driver depending on your Model. Also download the Scanner Software. Copy the filenames and search them via Google. Make sure you download the Canon files from an official Canon domain.

CanoScan LiDE 50 and LiDE 35 work both with the 35 driver:

lide35osx7721en.dmg

CanoScan LiDE 60 driver:

lide60osx11131en.dmg

VueScan Software:

VueScan 9.2 (or later) x32 for Mac OS X

Alternative to VueScan: CanoScan Toolbox. I prefer VueScan.

Try your luck with Version 4 or Version 5.

CanoScan Toolbox 4: cstbosx4934ej4.dmg

CanoScan Toolbox 5: cstbosx5014ej4.dmg

• Open the downloaded driver file (lide35osx7721en.dmg or lide60osx11131en.dmg)

• and Double-click the ScanGear file, install and restart when prompted

• Open the downloaded VueScan file (vuex3292.dmg) and drag the VueScan application to the Mac Applications folder

• Open the VueScan application. The scanner should be recognized automatically.

(Alternatively try and install CanoScan Toolbox 4 or 5)

Thanks for using FixYa.

this is the support site ...and the driver I found there is for windows 7 but on 32..Cause they do not have one for 64 bits OS yu should download and try the Vista one on 64 ..cause the compatibility is usually high and it s worth give it a try ..If not the only way you will be able to use is if you reinstall the windows & on 32..You will not feel much difference but the driver's compatibilities will be easier to match

You can download Scanner Driver from this site.

I'm not sure if this will work on the lide 20. I have an lide 35, and there are no 64 bit drivers for it. I downloaded and installed the drivers for the lide 60, told the computer to manually find the lide 60 drivers for my scanner, and installed the canoscan toolbox for vista 64 bit. Works like a champ.
