People may be happy to hear that Nikon has released Nikon Scan 3.1.4 that is compatible with Mac OS 10.2.2. the frustrating part, and something i hadn't tried under 3.1.3, is that one cannot have other scanners connected via firewire for the software to work. I have an Epson 2450 flatbed also connecetd via firewire and Nikon Scan wouldn't work. Disconnect the Epson and the LS4000ED is found by the software. Hurrahh!
I have yet to test with SilverFast 6 now. Has anyone tried?

Well, I tried the Silverfast 6 Demo after installing Nikon Scan 3.1.4 and making sure my Epson 2450 was also not plugges in via firewire. Only the LS4000ED. This time, the scanner was recognised. When I make my settings and press preview, I get the usual scanner sounds, which finally stop, but then there is just a spinning color wheel. No Preview. Seems to have frozen. Should I just wait until lasersoft match version with the newer Nikon maid software versions. Are these in fact new MAID versions with Nikon Scan 3.1.4?
I have this problem also.

Have you had any luck with this problem? I get the same spinning wheel after the scanner seems to have focused.

I have the same problem with my LS-40 (IV ED) and having only installed nikonscan 3.1.4. The prescan focusses, measures exposure time... And looks like it completes the prescan, but just hangs, chewing up 100% CPU. I let it sit for 10 mintes and finally got an error message "Scanner error: 0" I closed this dialog box, but the software is still hanging, chewing up 100% cpu.
Maybe I should try installing SF again.
