Btw mine is MG7160 and I am still using mountain lion , but reading here the problems seem to be the same.

OK so you have a different printer and different OS. Go to ML forum and start a new question for 7160.

Mine works fine on WPA2-PSK type AES+TKIP

I use the Canon utilities that look like below. I have never used Image Capture in my life.

Image capture is very handy . It means I can use my very ancient Canon lide 500f . Which works really well. 🙂

I have spent sooo many hours and days trying to get this thing to work and I'm usually good at this stuff :lol: I am taking a tea break 🙂

Go to www.canon.com/ijsetup and get the latest utility and setup stuff for ML and 7160 and run it again.

Thanks for suggestions. Been there done that multiple times, .Went through it on the phone and via email with Canon . Found this and the problems were the same as I was having so hoped I might find a solution. End result is alway the same, printing and copying work , scanning doesn't. Also been in for repair , had to set up all over again and still have exactly the same problem. I'm going to give up for a while and use the trusty Lide500f .

I am having the same problem as above - called Canon for help 3 times. Deleted all files and set up again but the scanner still not recognising my mac. Interesting this afternoon my husband had his Windows computer which has also been set up for printer and that scanned to the his computer without any problem. I

I am actually about to throw mine on Ebay, complete with warning to Mac people NOT to buy Haha!!, and buy anything that ISN'T Canon. It is the biggest load of plastic crap I have ever bought. I have seen so many people complain about how difficult it is to set up for Mac and now matter what I did it has never scanned via wifi. Even the things it does do it does very ,very slowly. It doesn't switch off, or come on automatically when I want to print. Although it is supposedly connected, blue light on, every time I try to use it I have to set it all up again. Canon help, just isn't ! 😠It IS the elephant in the room !! 😁 and about the same size.

The Canon service place where it was supposedly repaired didn't have a Mac test it on .😝

Sadly because I upgraded to Maverick, where is my bandwidth going to now ??, I can no longer use my trusty Lide500 😟

I don't seem to have the Canon IJ Network Scanner Selector EX in the Canon Utilities Application.

I am unable to scan wirelessly to my Mac computer as unable to select scanner.

My husband has a PC computer and it works fine.

I would suggest if you are still within the the refund period of the printer, take it back !! Too many people all over the world have had this very same problem . Pursuing it will just make you all bitter and twisted like me 😁 And it still won't scan for you via Wifi. 😁
