To scan negatives and get them into Photoshop Elements, the Epson tech rep said I would have to call either Adobe or Apple. There is no 64-bit Epson Scan or Epson Scan 2 software which will work with the old 4990 scanner. Having spoken with Epson, it seems that I did successfully download their 'ICA Scanner Driver v5.8.9 for Image Capture' which (a) they say is Apple software, not Epson's, and (b) is in the Image Capture app even though it does not show a new update date. More info: A trial copy of VueScan can be downloaded from I'm back again. The Professional Edition adds unlimited free upgrades, support for film scanning, document feeders, and some other advanced features. Both licenses are for life and support up to four computers. Pricing: VueScan is available in two editions, Standard Edition ($49.95) and Professional Edition ($99.95). VueScan also has built-in IT8 color calibration for scanners to ensure that scans are “color accurate”. The software also has some advanced features like batch scanning and multi-page PDF output, plus options for scanning faded slides and prints where colors are adjusted automatically for optimum color balance. There’s also an easy-to-use auto button which will make scans with all the settings adjusted automatically. VueScan is targeted at all levels of user and includes three operating modes: Basic, Standard, and Professional. older scanners won't work because their drivers haven't been updated.

Catalina is the latest version of macOS and no longer supports 32-bit software.
