Canon Lide 100 does not work

I had the same problem and eventually gave up. But you could see if it works with Apple's own Image Capture application, which is also a generic scanner driver

IMage Capture comes as standard with the MacOS. It should be in your Applications folder.

Do you have the latest LiDE 100 drivers, which were released 09/24/09, installed? Go to Canon's website. There's a new ICA driver for the LiDE 100 that is specifically compatible with OS X 10.6. There's also Canon's own new driver that lists OS X 10.6 as being supported.

Apple's apps (Image Capture, Preview, etc) use the new ICA driver format, not Twain.

This driver is required if you want to use Canon's MP Navigator EX 2.0.4 application. You can download from here.

Once installed, you can then open the Preferences pane and set the LiDE 100 as the scanner and what applications open after the respective buttons are pressed.
