My sa-21 adapter is stuck in my nikon 5000 scanner. How can I get it out?

I inserted my negative holder in backwards on my Nikon 5000 35 mm scanner. Then I could get the last (5th) slide scanned. But I can not get the scanner to work on my new IMac because of no working driver. Silver Fast has no drivers for the Nikon 5000

Have you tried resetting the scanner itself?

The scanner is only 24mm wide and 36 mm long, so rotate you slide by 90 degs.

Take it into nikon specialty shop for a service.

you can get them from www.nikon.com

hope this helps!!!

come to me I will remove that.

Go to Nikon's official website, then search for support. You'll be able to download all the drivers and Nikon Scan software. Hope this helps.

Put the film in after it is powered up. The unit needs to run through a power-up and calibrate cycle first. Once powered up, the until will feed the film in once it reaches a certain point into the machine.

The unit is supposed to kick the film back out when you close down the scanning software. If your film ever gets stuck try this to get it out. DO NOT force the SA-21 out of the machine with film stuck in it.
