Importing from "new" used EOS-1D Mk III - Is Canon software required?

This should be an easy one.
My camera manual says to install EOS Digital Solution software before connecting camera to computer. I just want to be sure if this isn't necessary before I connect the camera.
If I do install the software bundle can I still import to iPhoto as the default or will it automatically open and import to Canon's ImageBrowser, causing me to have to create duplicate files by transferring them to iPhoto?
The disk contains:
Digital Photo Pro 3.0
ImageBrowser 5.8
EOS Utility 2.0
PhotoStitch 3.1
WFT Utility 3.0
I am on OS10.4.11 and iPhoto '08.
I am not using a card reader.
I have used 2 other camera brands (Panasonic & Olympus) with this version of iPhoto and never had to install camera manufacturer's software.
Thanks!

Thanks for your response.
So are there any advantages to installing the Canon software? Has anyone used the Canon utilities I described above and are they useful in addition to the features in iPhoto, or are they just a duplication of file management and editing features already found in iPhoto?
I may be shooting RAW soon, and I believe compatibility isn't a problem for my camera, the 1D Mark III, which has been in production for several years.
Could I simply install the disk and play with the ImageBrowser and then reset the default to open iPhoto on import.
I just wondered if this is software that most people just leave in the package, or do many Canon users find it of use as compared with or in addition to iPhoto?

Problem printing PDF picture files imported from JPG using HP Colour InkJet cp1700 printer

When I print PDF picture files imported from JPG using an HP Colour InkJet cp1700 printer, the picture spills over. A wide range of other PDF files print OK. Have tried things such as configuring the printer to scale to letter size, etc,, but without success. Have a Windows 7 64 bit computer and Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended 9.5.5. Any ideas?

Hello there! Welcome to the forums @rt70
I understand you're having some issues with printing PDF files from a website on Windows 7.
I would personally suggest trying to print from that website using a different web browser. If you're using Internet Explorer, try FireFox or Chrome, for example.
You can also try running the Print and Scan Doctor tool, that will search and try and fix printing issues.
If you have any issues that continue, please let me know what they are and which programs, websites, and web browsers you have tried, along with the results from running the diagnostic tool above.
Good luck and have a great day

Can't import from DB using Admin tool

Hello
I have a problem that I'd like to get some help on. I have installed OBIEE 11.1.1.7 on Linux as well as the OBIEE Client Tool on Windows. I have modified the user.cmd file so that now the file has the following content:
@echo off
REM This file is a placeholder for setting environment variables
REM set TNS_ADMIN=/home/oracle/app/MV_Home/Oracle_BI1/network/admin
In my Tnsname file, I have 3 entries:
Entry 1 -- DB1
Entry 2 -- DB2
Entry 3 --DB3
The same Tnsname file has been stored in the linux machine as well..
My dashboard and reports are working fine.. I am also able to import table from DB1, DB2,DB3..
Now I have added one more entry to the tnsname file for DB4. So I modified the tnsname with the entries and updated them on both windows and linux..
On my linux, I am able to connect to DB4 with sqplus, on windows, I am able to connect as well via toad and sqldeveloper.
When I open my rpd in Online mode, I change the connection pool parameters with DB4 information, I am able to update rowcount.
However, I am not able to import table from DB4 using neither offline rpd nor online rpd.
I am not sure where to look in order to debug this issue.
Any thoughts?

Hello Srini
I double-checked my tns entry on my windows, it has the below:
186 =
(DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = xxx.xx.xxx.xxx)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVER = DEDICATED)
      (SERVICE_NAME = xman)
So I to the comment line i did 'tnsping xxx.xx.xxx.xxx', i got the following result:
TNS Ping Utility for 32-bit Windows: Version 11.2.0.3.0 - Production on 20-Jun-2013 11:08:51
Copyright <c> 1997,2011, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Used parameter files:
c:\Oracle\product\11.2.0\client_1\network\admin\sqlnet.ora
Used EZCONNECT adapter to resolve the alias
Attempting to contact <DESCRIPTION=<CONNECT_DATA=<SERVICE_NAME=>><ADDRESS=<PROTOCOL=TCP><HOST=XXX.XX.XXX.XXX><PORT=1521>>>
Ok <10 msec>
So that means I was able to ping xxx.xx.xxx.xxx.
What would be the next thing to look into?
Much appreciated

Using old version iMovie and import from new camcorder

I got a new camcorder which won't let me import to the old version 4.0.1 Does anyone have any idea how to move the clips to the old version from the 7.1.4 version which is sooo infuriating. The old one was soooo simple to use as I don't need 90% of the NEWER features. I also miss being able to turn one frame into a photo.

I got a new camcorder which won't let me import to the old version 4.0.1
As an iLife '08 owner you are also entitled to a free download of iMovie HD v6.0.4 if you want it.
Does anyone have any idea how to move the clips to the old version from the 7.1.4 version which is sooo infuriating.
You can open the named_Event folder containing the iMovie '08 imported clips and "drag 'n drop" them to an open previous version of iMovie or you can open the previous version of iMovie, select the "Import" option, navigate to the named_Event folder, select the file(s) you want, and import it/them to the older application.
I also miss being able to turn one frame into a photo.
JPEG images are automatically created in the named_Project folder any time a single frame is selected/added to an iMovie '08 project. They can also be created by QT Pro ($30) or MPEG Streamclip (free) directly from a source video clip.

What reigon is a dvd created from new using Toast?

Hi all
I've just made a dvd from some .mov files with no DRM issues using toast titanium. All fine, but I want to send it to someone in New Zealand. I'm told that the dvd will be reigon 0. Is that correct?
Thanks in advance

I have been faced with this problem before and have tried the different tools that are available including using UNIX scripts ect. I usually end up frustrated and spend half my life trying to understand how things work and how to use stuff. In the end it just became such a hassle that I gave up!!
What really crunched it was when I bought a DVD RW player and started recording stuff from the TV and found myself more and more needing to do exactly what you are saying. Take extracts from the TS_Video folder and import them into imovie.
In the end I saw an article in Mac World magazine for Cinamatize2 from http://www.miraizon.com. I have only had it a week or so, and am still getting used to it. What I will say is that it's a lot easier to use than all the other "scripts" etc that I've tried. It has a user friendly GUI and good instructions!! at the moment you can get it for just over $50 with the Mac World 10% discount. I think that it's money well spent if you intend to do this regularly!!

I am trying to import from camera using windows 8.1 and I get a message that Lightroom program has stopped responding. Ideas?

Lightroom has stopped responding. That's what I get when I try to import images from my D7100 into the library. I'm (foolishly, no doubt,) using windows 8.1. Can anyone help?

It is lightroom 5.7. I will have to try to run it again to get the exact
message, but essentially, it is "the program has stopped responding".
thanks!

My Favorites, imported from Explorer, used to appear in the Menu bar as "Favorites," now I have to menu down thru bookmarks to find them. Why did this change all of a sudden?

The last few weeks, my firefox has been acting up. Sometimes when I load it, my RoboCom Icon does not appear, sometimes it does. Now, I lost "Favorites" in my menu bar.

Check that you still have the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" placed on the Bookmarks Toolbar.
Make sure that all the toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
* Check in "View > Toolbars > Customize" that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
* If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the Customize window onto the Bookmarks Toolbar
* If you do not see the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" or other items that are missing in the toolbar palette or on a toolbar then click the "Restore Default Set" button

EOS 5D Mark III or Canon 6D

Hi
I'm planning on upgrading to a full frame from my T3i. Most of my photography is outdoor wildlife and landscapes. Usually involves hiking to get there. I was thinking the 6d cause of it's size but I'm reading alot about autofocus not so good. The 5D sounds good but it's biggest con is it's size that could be a problem when hiking.
Any thoughts or suggestion?
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

FWIW, I have the 6D and love it but the AF is my biggest complaint. I do children's' photography a lot, which some would argue isn't that different from wildlife and the AF is quite often a limiting factor.

Import from Word - tab space used with a Word style does not import consistently

When I import from Word using RH 10 (but this has been the case with all versions of RH that I've used) the import messes up my tab spacing in my Note style. To clarify: The Note style in my Word document has the word Note followed by a tab space and then the content of the Note. When I import a Word doc to RH, the conversion of this tab space is inconsistent (from 4-6 spaces) - it seems to depend on the length of the note and whether it continued onto a second line in the word document. Is there any solution to this? TIA.

Simply that plans change at this time of year.
I got exactly the same result and at first I wondered if it was because the document had tracked changes in it. I have seen that cause problems in the past and always recommend accepting them, in a copy document if you don't want to lose the tracking.
Accepting the changes made no difference and I would say this is a bug. Fortunately though there is a workaround that may be acceptable. Quite simply, add a full stop (period) or some other character after the number. A space will not work.
The more people who report a bug or request a feature, the more likely it is to be actioned. Please follow this link.

Song Quuality after importing from CD

Hi guys,
I bought my nano not long ago, and I'm still familiarizing with the iTunes.
The obvious problem that I have now is that the songs that I imported from CD using iTunes are all of bad quality, overlapping vocals & music.
Usually I import CD using windows media player, it may not be as good as other ripper program, but good enough. But importing with wma means I need a longer process to download songs to my iPod.
According to a friend of mine is about the iTunes setting, which I still can't figure out till now.
So, all the apple wacky out there pelase help.
thanks

If you import your audioCD to a format that has to be converted by iTunes this will result in a loss of quality.
Use iTunes itself to rip your audioCD and choose either AAC as codec or Apple Lossless.

Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:

- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

I am trying to use the new plug-in for import from aperture. But the "import" button always disappears ... any help out there?

Hi there
I have up-dated LR to the latest version and like to use the plug-in for the import from the Aperture library. I follow the steps suggested by an article, have saved all picture into separate folders (folder = project name) and still, after the analysis of the library, the "import" button disappears and I am stuck and can't import.
Any ideas what can be done/must be done to get this working?
