Has anyone interfaced LabVIEW to the Canon SDK for digital cameras?

I'm trying to call the Canon SDK to remotely control a Canon powershot g2. The SDK is comprised of DLLs compiled from C code. I'm getting an error when calling the first routine to run the SDK apparently because it needs to allocate memory for itself and is failing. Any suggestions would be appreciated. TIA. David

It is always tough to use a third party driver. I recommend first reading "Using External Code in LabVIEW" manual. You can find it by opening LabVIEW >> help >> seach the labview bookshelf. This launches a pdf. The manual will be hyperlinked there.
The next thing to look for is a VB example in the SDK. Translating from VB to LabVIEW is straight forward and usually 1-1. Finally you may want to contact an Alliance member if you need this done fast. You can find the list at www.ni.com/alliance .

    has anyone managed to make the Canon 8000F Scanner work on this OX system?

    Part of the problem is that this is probably not a "logical" error.  The common cause of this issue is still image files where the pixel size is too large. This suggests that Encore's (and other Adobe apps) ability to handle image size is exceeded without a better error message. The link, which I'm going to post until I find a "new" location (if one exists) is now a bad link:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/encore/kb/error-software-used-decode-media.html
    And in this example where it was not an image issue, the user fixed the problem by re-encoding the problem file.

    Check what you've got 'Communications' set to on the camera's settings - it needs to be 'Print/PTP', not 'Normal' 'Normal' to 'PTP' :

  • Has anyone had problems with the screen freezing for hours?

    Yesterday my phone kept freezing when I went to unlock it, after 5 minutes or so it would then go to the code unlocking screen but last night my screen frooze for 12 hours until it finally ran out of battery and shut down.  When the screen freezes there is no way to force a shut down...can anyone help?

    If the screen freezes, reset the phone - press both the home and sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo appears (~10 seconds).  If freezing recurs frequently, restore the phone.  See Appendix B of the User Guide:

    Hi G-Money,
    The communication will be over TCP-IP.
    Thanks for your offer to help.  I don't really need assistance in figuring out how to communicate with the device in LabVIEW at a transport layer.  I'm just trying to take inventory on what's already been done, at a messaging protocol level, that could be useful as a reference or starting point.
    Thanks,

  • HT1349 Has anyone had issues with the iphone 4s and facebook.

    Has anyone had issues with the iphone 4s and facebook. I have downloaded the app and sometimes it will let me log in and then it will log me out and not let me back in. I have deleted and downloaded it several times and nothing is working. HELP!

    @razmee: rather unhelpful.
    @tata - we're having the same trouble, and the only solution we've found doesn't fix it.
    1) uninstall
    2) login on PC/MAC and change password
    3) reboot iphone
    4) install facebook app, reboot again
    5) login from iphone. 
    No joy.
    Safari works, but not for the apps.
    Of course, it's Facebook that has to fix this.

    Answering this question will not help your issue.  You need to take the iPhone to the nearest Genius Bar.  That's the only solution that will reach an affirmative result.

  • Has anyone managed to change the battery in a creative Zen MX

    =i bought a 6gb zen MX? in November 2007 and have used it every day since. The battery is now in a sorry state and doesn't hold a charge for more than about 4 hours. After fully charging it, if you then leave it overnight the battery almost totally depletes. The battery is definitely a goner. Has anyone opened one of these players, changed the battery and then got the thing back together successfully? I've looked around on the net but can't find any info on how i might open the player to insert a new battery. Meanwhile i've bought a new Creative ZenMX but i prefer the old one with its dedicated slider for on/off and lock and it would be great if i could somehow get a new battery into it.
    I still have my old Ceati've Zen Jukeboxes (30gb and 60gb) and i wore a couple of batteries out in those. But all you had to do was open the player and shove in a new battery. Shame that facility no longer exists in Creative's MP3 players.
    Any help on the issue of replacing the battery in an MX would be much appreciated.

    Re: has anyone managed to change the battery in a creative Zen MX%Thanks for the links Bertwin, much appreciated.
    Now i have a problem in obtaining a replacement battery. Back in the day you could phone Creative (in Ireland) and order replacement batteries but alas, no longer. On the net you can easily find replacement batteries for every Creative player.....except for the Zen MX. ? The replacement x-fi battery looks similar? and has the same wire connections but it is 3.7v as opposed to 3.6v in the MX. Also the x-fi battery is rated at? 550mAh while the MX is rated at 0.55AH. (Though i guess that could mean they are the same capacity only it's written differently)
    The Creative part number for the MX battery is BAC0603R79925 and the Creative Model No is : LPC6333445
    If anyone knows where to obtain this battery please post.

    I saw the set hibernet mode to 0 trick and it failed.  Guess I can try 3 because reinstalling OS X did nothing but cost me another few hours and a little faith in Apple.  Getting annoyed as I see how many people complain of the identical issue and the fixes are variable and random.  Suggests to me that it is a major design flaw in the hardware and Apple got too cute with the just works idea and didn't put a damned power button on the display so there is no manual way to do it and no 'insert a pin here' type trick to reset the thing.
    Asking for a refund tomorrow.  Past the 14 days so maybe they'll say no but if so then every time this happens I will swap it out.  At least then I know it is a three hour fix and as I was working on this for hours today it occurred to me that if the trick is to do 57 different things and maybe one will work then that is not why I made the switch to Apple.  I could plug everything in on my PC and it all 'just worked'.
    Really poor customer service - the support folks are very nice and I am sure they know that this is a systemic issue but aren't allowed to say so.  Feeling pretty stupid for going on faith right about now.

    Edge has very clear restrictions, one being that you must have 6 months of clean payment history which you don't. Either wait until April 14, or good luck at Sprint.
    I am unsure how it can be determined the payment mix up was the fault of CS, but regardless, the mix up was done. There can be any number of reasons why a payment could be missed without any fault on your part, however you are still the responsible party for the account and must live with the repercussions.

    I am using duel thunderbolt displays with a MacBook Pro. I only have the option to have sound come from one or the other. Has anyone thought of making the left channel come from both speakers on the left Monitor and the same of the right? If yes, how is that done? The MacBook Pro could even be a center channel if configured in that order.

    How much spare hard disc space have you got? ..Could your disc be so clogged that there's no room for any more movie?
    You'll need about 10% of your total hard disc space - e.g; 6GB for a 60GB hard disc - to be kept empty for your Mac to do its "housekeeping" (..creating temporary files, indexing things, and so on..) and iMovie footage uses about 13GB per hour of video.
    So if you have a 60GB hard disc, and it's only got 15GB spare, then 6GB of that will really be needed by the Mac itself, giving you about 9GB of usable space, and if you import half an hour of video (6GB) and start cutting it around and editing the audio too, and duplicating a few clips, and adding stills, you're soon going to run out of space!
    If your Mac's disc is almost full, you'll probably need to get an external FireWire disc ..say a 160GB or similar size.. then format it as 'Mac OS Extended' (..by selecting that add-on disc and using the 'Erase' tab in the Disk Utility program..) and then you can copy your project over to that new, empty disc, and continue editing it there.
