How can I download my RAW photos from my Canon 40D camera to my MBPS

I have a Canon 40D camera, and in downloading my RAW photos to my new MBP the files convert to JPEG instead of staying in RAW. Is there a seething I can use to maintain my photos as RAW

How are you doing the downloading?
If you download raw files with iPhoto, iPhoto can only edit the JPEG preview that is embedded with each raw file. iPhoto is not a true raw editor, because it's a consumer-level product, not professional-level.
The files should remain in RAW format if you download any of these ways, by using:
Apple Image Capture (in your Utilities folder)
Canon Digital Photo Professional (comes with your camera, but since the 40D is so old, go to the Canon site and upgrade your copy to the latest version for compatibility with the latest Mac OS X)
Apple Aperture
Adobe Lightroom
Any other professional raw organizer/editor like Capture One

  • How can I export a RAW photo from iphoto to anywhere without it changing into a jpg?

    How can I export a RAW photo from iphoto to anywhere (PSE, or desktop) without it changing into a jpg???

    See if any of this info will help:
    Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
    1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
    Click to view full size
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop.  When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.  3 - however, if you get the navigation window
    Click to view full size
    that indicates that  PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file.  You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
    This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
    NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 9 the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
    Click to view full size
    I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.  In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
    Click to view full size
    NOTE: If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window".  That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and seledt "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu).  This way you get the best of both worlds.

    How can I best load RAW images from a Canon SX50?

    9Sorry, ........confused about this process.   When I attempted to Post the question I had entered, I was told a blank space could not be posted.  So, I reentered the Q in the "space"........ which apparently was the space for an answer....!! ??......)
    >  When I try to load RAW images taken by my Canon SX50 from the SD card, iPhoto 11 -  (iMac/OSX 10.6.8) tells me that it can't read the format or something like that.    OSX 10.6.8 came out before the SX50, thus, did not include the related program.           I want to shoot RAW on the SX50....... but I then want to load them into iPhoto....... which I do directly from pics I take with my Nikon D200.  
    Not sure if this will help.............

    How can I keep my RAW photo files from converting to JPEG???

    Hello briggiebunny
    If iTunes can read the movie files, then you will need to create an iPad version by going to the drop down menu File > Create New Version > Create iPad or Apple TV Version and then syncing that newly created file.
    iTunes: Videos may be unable to sync to iPhone, iPad, or iPod

    Did you use Nikon Transfer to get the files from your camera to computer?

  • How can I work the raw file from Canon 5D MkIII in Photoshop Elements 9?

    how can I work the raw file from Canon 5D MkIII in Photoshop Elements 9?

    You can download the 7.1 DNG converter to make copies of your canon raw files in the adobe dng format, which can then be opened in pse 9.
    As said above the the latest camera raw plugin 6.5 for pse 9 won't open those files directly, but will open the the converted dng files.

  • When creating a book how can I get all the photos from an album to show up in the order they were in the album?

    When creating a book in iphoto, how can I get all the photos from the album I want to use to show up in the order that they are in the album?  When I tried to use the option to add my own photos instead of having the program "flow" them, they showed up all mixed up.

    iPhoto puts them in the book in chronological order.  So to get your photos from an album into an iPhoto book in the same order you will need to use the Photos ➙ Batch Change ➙ Date menu option and set them all to the same date with a 1 minute time difference between each.

  • How can I make a still photo from imovie

    How can I make a still photo from imovie?

    Let's assume you have iMovie 11 (Version 9). (If you have a different version, let me know. The instructions will be different.)
    First, get an app called MPEG Streamclip, which is free. (google MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5)
    Open MPEG Streamclip.
    In iMovie, select the clip you need. Then, right-click/Reveal in Finder.
    Drag this clip into MPEG Streamclip
    In MPEG Streamclip, move the playhead to the frame you want.
    In MPEG Streamclip, click FILE/EXPORT FRAME.
    Choose JPEG, TIFF, or PNG and give it a name.
    You can then drag this photo into iPhoto.
    I have created a short video Tutorial on how to do this. There is one error in the Tutorial, where it says that Command-click is the same as right-click. I should have said Control-click instead.

  • HT1296 How can I transfer all my photos from my Ipad Mini to my new MacBook Pro

    How can I transfer all my photos from my Ipad Mini to my new MacBook Pro
    I am facing problem while I connect to my iPad mini with MacBook Pro , it only sync photo from its taken by and from it camera roll only. It doesn't sync all the images... Like my all albums. All photos in library....

    To copy photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.
    You should also be able to copy albums that you've created directly on the iPad via apps such as Simple Transfer (though I haven't tried it)

  • How can i download office for mac from a disc to my macbook air?

    how can i download office for mac from a disc to my macbook air?

    You have four options that I know of.
    1) Use an external DVD drive that will work on the MBA. (Apple's external Superdrive for MBA)
    2) Use a remote disk connection, using another Mac with a DVD drive, and sharing the drive with the MBA.
    3) Download Office from Microsoft's website, and then use only the registration code that came with your DVD purchase to authorize the registration.
    4) Copy the contents of the Office DVD to a USB flash drive, using another computer. Then install from that flash drive.
    Maybe someone else has an idea, if none of the above will woek for you.

  • TS3989 Only some of the photos I have taken on my iPhone appear in the photo stream on my iPad even thou they were taken at the same time. Why is this and how can I import the other photos from my iPhone to my iPad?

    Only some of the photos I have taken on my iPhone appear in the photo stream on my iPad even thou they were taken at the same time. Why is this and how can I import the other photos from my iPhone to my iPad?

    If older photos are missing it may be because photo stream photos are only held in iCloud for 30 days.  After that they are removed from iCloud but will remain (up to 1000 photos) on your device until deleted.  Also, only photos taken after enabling photo stream are added to your photo stream, and only when the camera is closed, your device is connected to wifi and you have at least 20% battery life remaining.
    To transfer the missing photos you can either create a shared photo stream containing them and invite yourself to it (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99), import the photos to your computer and sync them to your iPad, or use an app like PhotoSync to transfer them to your iPad over wifi.

    They can, but the images will only be the small thumbnail files that are created for optimized viewing on the iPod's smaller display.  That is unless you store the images on the iPod in their full resolution.
