Having a difficult time tethering Canon 6D to OS X 10.9.1 laptop.

Question

For a short time the tethering worked, but now it shows an error message that it cannot connect to camera.  Any thoughts?

Answer 1

The System Management Controller may not have much to do
with the issue found in copying a picture into Pages from Mail.
After upgrading to Mavericks, did you check for other system
update or upgrades in addition? Also, by now the Mavericks
OS X 10.9.2 with security fix and updates has been out, too.
Software Update should be able to show available items.
If there were any other updates to Mail or Pages, they may
(or not) be of some help, of that I am not certain.
Had you tried to use Disk Utility's 'repair disk permissions'
on the Macintosh HDD, in D.U's first aid section?
There may be some ideas on the topic in the Help viewer, in
either Pages help, or Mail help, in your system; it will access
Apple Support database as well as a help files in the Mac OS.
Perhaps someone else with more immediate experience in
your stated issue will see this and enter the discussion.
Maybe there is another way to add an image from email
into a Pages document? To Import, or export.
You could also attempt to sort out similar issues online via
a search in google or yahoo (use 'Mac OS X' first in search)
and see what comes up, with usual modifiers to look deeper.
Good luck & happy computing!
