How to remove an old scanner from twain list?

I have Photoshop Elements 2.0 and when I import a picture I have an old camera and scanner that I need to remove from the list of twain connections that appear. Does anyone know how to do this?
thanks rick

First off, this is the main Photoshop forum. Folks here don't likely know much about info specific to Photoshop Elements. Click on the "User to User Forums" link at the top of the page for the top level index of all product forums. Navigate into the PS Elements forum from there.

Secondly—although the visitors on these forums might come up with an answer to your question, it really doesn't have much to with Photoshop (any version) specifically, AFAIK. I'm pretty sure a device's inclusion in the list is generated by the TWAIN component itself. (I could be wrong here; anyone may feel free to correct me on this! :))

Sooo, I just did a Google search using your thread title. You should find the info you need on the Google search results page < http://www.google.com/search?q=How%20to%20remove%20an%20old% 20scanner%20from%20twain%20list&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&am p;aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox -a>.

And last—but definitely not least—you may want to look into capturing image data from your scanner through its native software or a 3rd-party scanner app like VueScan <http://www.hamrick.com>, rather than using the notoriously buggy TWAIN component. One of the great benefits to working this way is that you can scan your image without tying up your image editing application. This way, you're free to work on one image while your scanner is capturing data from another.

Just to clarify I assume you mean the buggy PS TWAIN components? Third party software will be using TWAIN in any case.
