DPP and EOS Utility update without CD?

I have lost the software CD for my 5DII and am trying to update my software. There are a couple of posts on other forums that claim to have a workaround but I have not been able to successfully update. Has anyone else had this problem?

It should not ask for the CD. However, there is a work around method for MAC since Canon just changed the installation packages, here is the link you can follow: http://www.northlight-images.co.uk/article_pages/install_canon_software.html
Pull down to the section "The Latest Mac DPP Install workaround [DPP 3.11.26 Apr 2012]"
However, even the article says that it should not ask you for the CD if you have the full version installed already.

  • Canon Digital Photo Professional and EOS Utility not responding

    Have been using both Canon DPP and EOS Utility since Dec 09 successfully. Installed Snow Leopard in Jan 2010, still worked fine. Installed Aperture 3 in August and now the Canon software keeps shutting down on me. I contacted Canon and they said it is Apples fault (since 10.6.4) andthat it is because I am running Snow Leopard.
    How can this be when it worked for 4 months fine?
    Is this an issue with Aperture not wnating any ohter editing software?
    I have a Canon EOS 50D camera and was exporting through the Digital Photo Professional software.
    thanks to anyone that can help.

  • I can't run LR5 and EOS utility at the same time

    I'm running Mac OS 10.9.5, LR5.7 & Eos Utility 3.
    I can't run LR and Eos3 at the same time. Eos just crashes and have to force quit Eos.
    Any tips anyone?
    Do I have to downgrade to Eos2. Not a problem really I suppose.

    LR supports tethering using a Canon DLL and EOS Utility probably also supports tethering or at least uses something from a similar Canon DLL.  You probably cannot have two different versions of that DLL loaded at the same time, so it makes sense there are problems.

  • Are you having problems with Windows XP Pro and Airport Utility Updates?

    I was having problems with my wireless laptop setting up my Bonjour Printer. I checked to make sure I had downloaded the latest updates to Airport Utility and Bonjour. Check. After doing this I noticed I couldn't see my Airport Extreme through the Airport Utility. After much frustration and bringing my entire network crashing down around me, I got help from a knowledgeable guy from Cox Cable in San Diego. He helped me get my trusty iMac Power PC online. It saw my Airport Extreme but no answers were forthcoming in any forums about my XP issues. Here is what finally solved my problem. I uninstalled all Airport Utility and Bonjour Programs. I then went back to Airport Utility 5.3.1 for Windows. It installs Bonjour Printer services with this download. Everything is working perfectly again. I have my Canon Pixma MP500 connected to the USB port on my AEBS and Bonjour walked right through the setup process. I suggest that if this works for you, turn off all Airport Utility and AEBS firmware updates until you see that whatever issue Apple created with these updates gets fixed.

    Well... it worked! :D
    I'm pretty sure the extra 512 memory stick was the problem, that would explain why it was being inconsistent with its type of failures before. I'm going to reinstall it later and run memtest86 and try and see if i can get it to work at all somehow without causing problems, cuz 1.5 was already low enough...
    DryHeat, yeah it was with SP2 but I got it installed now so no worries
    Thanks a lot!

  • EOS Utility update issue

    Hi all.
    I recently purchased a Canon 600D and I wanted to start experimenting with timelapses.
    I have done timelapses before using a 450D and the Canon EOS Utility, which I found to be perfect for what I needed.
    I have installed the EOS Utility that came with the 600D, but that "cannot be used with my current operating system", which is Mac OS X 10.7.5. I have read that a number of other people have had a similar issue, but that their problems were solved by updating the EOS Utility using the 2.13.0 updater which is available for download from the Canon website. This is where my problem lies. 
    I have managed to download the update installer, mount the .dmg file and get access to the installer. However, when I click on the installer, it extracts the files and then nothing. There is a little movement in the dock as it it's trying to do something (looks like a question mark comes up and then disappears again) but then nothing. This installer was downloaded from Canon's website, so assume it's not corrupted or anything like that?
    Any help or advice would be massively appreciated.
    Many thanks in advance.
    Matt

    Hi - Just wondering if you have figured out a solution to this problem. I am having the same issue on OSX Lion and have had no resolve after hours of searching through internet forums. 

  • T3i mavericks - EOS Utility update not working

    I recently upgraded to MAVERICKS.  I downloaded and followed the instructions for updating eu2.14.10x-installer.dmg.zip but I am still getting the error message "cannot be used with this version of the operating system"  ????

    EOS Utility is now up to v3.x.  You may want to update to the newer version.
    I was on Mavericks  using EOS Utility 2.13 with no trouble, but I am now on Yosemite and had to upgrade it to v3.0.  When you install 3.0 it actually installs both the latest 2.x series (2.14) as well as 3.0.  It seems to auto-decide which one to launch based on the attached camera.  However... both EOS Utility 2.14 and 3.0 and they are with the new OS.
    You might just want to upgrade to 3.0.

  • Eos utility updater fails

    I have a very old version of EOS UTILITY but I can't run it because it is powerpc based code. I was ok for a few years but now I need to perform an update on my camera and I need to connect to it via the EOS Utility. Downloaded the latest updated version from Cano (EU2.11.4) but it fails to do anything after the "extracting files' step.

    What is the eos utility?

  • Eos utility updater doesn't seem to be working

    I am trying to update my eos utility to run on osx 10.9.4 and have downloaded the latest updater for T3i from the dowloads page because I am getting the "Cannot be used on this version of the operating system" message, but when I mount the disk image for the updater and try to open it it just tells me that it is extracting files and then nothing happens. Is there a different updater for 10.9.4 or am I doing something stupid?

    I found the answer here: http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/imacefifirmwareupdate13.html
    I had to go into /Applications/Utilities/iMac EFI Firmware Update.app and run the updater manually.

  • DPP and EOS Capture problems

    Hi. Im new here and I have a problem. The problem doesn´t involve Aperture but I thought that this might be the area to find a guru to help me. If anyone know a better forum to post this question in I´d be happy to know where.
    I use DPP 2.0.3 and EOS capture 1.5.0.8 on a Powerbook 17" G4 1,67 1GB. The camera are 1Ds Mark II.
    The problem are that after som pictures taken with EOS Capture everything gets very slow. Everything works, all the pictures end up in the powerbook but it takes a long while.
    I had a 12" before and did not have this problem. But that one didn´t run in tiger.
    Are Tiger and EOS Capture a bad combo?
    Regards/Johan

    Hi all, just got in.
    The card in my camera is a Lexar 1000x and a Sandisk card, both 32g.
    The files (raw images) are fine when I veiw them in ACDsee Pro
    And when I bring them into Photoshop, they are fine as well.
    The only problem I have, is with the EOS utility, and DPP.
    I normally process all my image in Photoshop CS6 and don't use DPP.
    I was interested in the new interface for DPP so downloaded it and when I opened it up.... well the image posted is what all jpg, raw, tiff and everything else looks like in DPP.
    Not sure what the problem is.
    Any other suggestions?
    Oh and I did recently reformat the Lexar card as I got a err while doing some night photography. I reformated it in the Lexar USB 3 card reader, then in the camera. Still the same problem with EOS utiility quick viewer.
    Some of the recent photos on my Flickr stream are images all taken recently with the Lexar 1000x card.

  • Does eos utility update new versions automatically?

    Having trouble upgrading to eos utility 3. Using version that came with t2i. Learning to shoot feathered but some functions don't seem to work. Only tutorials I've found are with utility 3.

    I was wondering that, too. Then I realized that the Digital Photo Pro was older than what I saw under the Rebel upgrade page. It was a slight number upgrade. I had to manually upgrade to the newer version! You might have trouble because you have a t2i. I just bought a t6s and had to enter my body number to update anything.! I have yet to use it.All I have are Canon products going back to a film camera, FT-QL. It seems to me that as the versions improve, a canon camera user should be able to upgrade the different versions needed. Will come back here to update If I can find this page, again.

  • EOS Utility, wifi, the 70D and long exposure

    Greetings,
    Can I use the wifi function on the 70D and EOS Utility function for take long exposures (1-5mins)  without any cables on the camera. Meaning, can the EOS utility accept or set exposure times above 30 seconds via wifi and the utility software?
    My desire would be to have no wires on the camera body nor to my laptop, yet have greater than 30 seconds exposure control. 
    Regards,
    Brian

  • Canon EOS Utility, 5D3 and Mountain Lion (10.8.2): connection/data transfer problems

    Hi all,
    a few days ago I bought the 5D3, which replaced the 5D2.
    I'm experiencing problems in communication between the camera and Mac Book Pro (17" - i7 - 8GB) using EOS Utility (v. 2.12.3) as well as Lightroom 4.3: when I try to transfer photos to my Mac, sometimes the transfer works, sometimes it freezes and crashes (EOS Utility crashes, while LR at the end says he's not able to read the files).
    Strangely this what happens randonmly and if the storage format is raw, or if it is the raw along with jpg, if I use only jpg seems to happen a lot less often.
    Today I tryed to do same things (photo transfer and thetering) using using a PC with windows 7 x64 with the same softwares (Lightroom 4.3 and EOS Utility 2.12.3): everything worked flawless.
    I'm inclined to think that problems are due to incompatibility issues between Mountain Lion and camera firmware's data-transfer protocols...
    Have any of you encountered similar problems?
    Daniele

    Hey Daniele - I am in the *exact* same boat as you - RAW transfers work a little, and then EOS Utility freezes.  I hope someone has a solution!

  • EOS Utility - not launching?

    I found out what was causing the problem on my computer.  It was AVG Antivirus.  EOS Utility stopped working on another computer and no I thought that was very peculiar.  I started looking harder at my configurations and starting turning things off. Sure enough it was AVG antivirus. As soon as I disabled it the EOS utility started working. They must have had a recent update that cause the problems because it was working before. No errors in AVG so I am going to have some choice words with them. It is unacceptable to disable a program and not display any notification that you are doing it. I have spent a considerable amount of time troubleshooting this.

    Same problem for me too. Camera: 5D III, OS Win7 x64 I tried to "manually" launch "EOS utility 3 .exe" and "EOS utility 2 .exe" from the folders where files are installed but I got the same problem.If I launch EOS utility in folder EOS Utility (which is in folder EU2) I can launch the program but I cannot download images. Only link active is " monitor folder". I have already tried to reinstall everything multiple times (and always re-strarting my PC between uninstalling and re-installing). Any help? Thanks!Uninstall both versions of EOSU and start over, installing only EOSU 3. One of the options displayed will be to include EOSU 2 as part of the installation, so check that option. Then when you start EOSU with its GUI, it will automatically select the correct version - in your case EOSU 3, because that's what works correctly with the 5D3. If you use it on, say, a Rebel, EOSU 2 will be used. One other thing you might do is make sure you've installed DPP 4. (DPP 3 and DPP 4 can co-exist on the same computer.) The latest versions of EOSU and DPP are more closely integrated than in the past, so it's conceivable that EOSU 3 needs DPP 4 in order for all its functionality to work correctly.
