Lightroom will not tether to my 5D, 5D Mark 2 but it will to my 30Ds

I am tethering to 3 new laptops using Windows 7 and LR 3.3 will tether to my 30Ds, but not to my 5D or my 5D Mark2.  LR 3.3 actually did work with the Mark 2 for about 400 images , then it said it could not find the camera. Still works with the 30. I have swapped cables, laptops, and even to some of my PC's and I get the same thing.
I looked at Canaons website for a driver download, but did not find anything.
Is anybody capturing tethered with either of these camreas?
Thanks

At the above Microsoft Windows 7 64 bit OS compatibility link the 5D MKII is shown as 'Compatible,' but not the 5D or the less than 1-year old 60D.

http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=781825&page=2 one of the posters suggests:
If you have win7 64 bit you have to change your connection type from PC to PTP and then it will work just like it should. I have no idea why that works but it does, at least with my 5D and win7 64 bit.
This may work for file transfers, but I don't think this will help for tethered mode. Other possibility is to use Windows 7 XP mode or Virtual PC:

Setup of a virtual enviroment for use with LR is not for the faint of heart....I would only recommend it if you absolutely need tethered mode for your 'Not Compatible' camera.
BTW - No harm will come from connecting ANY camera to a USB port on a system without comaptible drivers. It just won't connect or transfer files. Not to worry!

    Lightroom will not import my photos.   It did up to a week ago.   I have changed cards and cameras (both worked two weeks ago).   I can import the photos to Picasa and iPhoto.   I get the following error message:  
    Some import operations were not performed.
    The following files were not imported because they could not be read  [followed by a list of the files I wanted to import]
    Thumbnails show up.  LR just will not import them.
    Any idea what is going wrong?

    If the Import button is not clickable, that means that Lightroom thinks you have no new photos to import (one possible reason is that they are duplicates)
    So, you need to figure out why Lightroom thinks that. The way I would do this is to search your Library module for at least one of the photos, by file name. To do this, you would follow all 4 of these steps in sequence:
    Click on All Photographs in the Catalog Panel on the left of the Library Module
    Turn off all Filters (Ctrl-L or Cmd-L once or twice)
    Expand all stacks: Photo->Stacking->Expand All Stacks
    Search for one or more of the photos using the Filter Bar (press backslash), search by File Name

    If you are having the same problem, i.e. a disk permission problem, open your favorite search engine and search on, "change disk permissions", and I think you'll find plenty of information on how to fix the problem. This is a Lightroom forum. Your problem is with your operating system. There is no sense in rewriting instructions that are already available if you do a simple search.

  • I was in Lightroom and had a power surge and now Lightroom will not launch....what can I do to fix it?

    I was in Lightroom and had a power surge and now Lightroom will not launch. It encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit. Lightroom will attempt to fix the next time it launches. I have shut my system down and Lightroom still will not launch. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    delete your preview cache (.lrdata folder).
    Here has location:

    If not enough info, search this forum for "delete preview cache".

  • Lightroom will not let me import photos from either camera or desktop. I can see them in the preview part of Lightroom but when I click import, just says they can't be read.  HELP!

    Lightroom will not let me import photos from either my camera or my desktop. They show up in the preview bit of Lightroom and I select the ones i want to import, then add my metadata info etc and file handling, but then when I hit IMPORT just keeps saying they can't be read.  SO FRUSTRATING.

    You are copying the photos. Does LR have the permission to delete the files from its source location - as DdeGannes suggested? Maybe this dialog is misleading.
    Did you try to just add files copied to the destination before - just for finding the issue?
    If nothing helps: Any chance you can upload one of the jpg to some file sharing service so we can have look at it?
    I believe DdeGannes suggested permission on the Destination folder (not the source folder).  Performing a copy requires only Read&Write permission on the destination folder, not the source folder. You need to go into your operating system and change the permissions to Read&Write on the destination folder. (If you don't know how to do that, go to your favorite search engine and type in Change Permissions Mac)

    I'm not a "Cloud" member. I just upgraded to Lightroom 6 from Lightroom 5. All was working well yesterday. Today Lightroom will not open (Windows 7). I see the logo photo over my Lightroom platform but nothing loads and I see "Lightroom not responding." I checked the catalogs and see that lrcat-Journal and lrcat-Lock have been created every time I try to open. I have a backup from the first day I upgraded, but Lightroom doesn't want to access it. Should I reinstall?

    Well, is the catalogue (and the folder it is in) writable? Have you actually checked the permissions? Lightroom won't be spitting out the error just to tick you off, and - computer wizard or not - this sounds very much like something you'll have to fix at the OS level: it's probably nothing to do with Lightroom or those funny lads at Adobe.

  • Latest version of Lightroom will not download RAW files from my D750. How does one get around this? Bought Lightroom for it's ability to manage RAW files and now very disappointed.

    Latest version of Lightroom will not download RAW files from my D750. How does one get around this? Bought Lightroom for it's ability to manage RAW files and now very disappointed.

    Here is the contents of a batch file which will convert whatever raws you drop on it:
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe DNG Converter" -cr7.1 -dng1.4 -p0 %*
    Once you download the latest converter (release candidate from adobe labs, if necessary), and save the appropriate contents of the batch file (change path to match your system, and parameters to match your druthers, if applicable), the procedure is:
    1. Drop raw files on bat file.
    2. Import as usual (the DNGs).
    Not too bad once you're set up (if DNG converter supports your raws).
    Documentation:
    http://wwwimages.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/products/photoshop/pdfs/dng_commandline.pd f
    Note: on Mac, you may need to use "$@" (with the double-quotes) instead of %* (which is dos batch syntax), and you will need to use the full path to the converter executable file, e.g.
    “/Applications/Adobe DNG Converter.app/Contents/MacOS/Adobe DNG Converter”
    If too much, just use the GUI instead of the bat file.

  • Lightroom will not download into my creative cloud!

    I just purchsed the subscription for Adobe Photoshop & Adobe Lightroom. Photoshop downloaded fine, but lightroom will not download at all!
    I was using the free trial of lightroom before I subscribed and it worked fine. I have already tried everything.
    It is supposed to download via creative cloud, correct?
    This is so frustrating.

    Mac os10 Mavericks /Safari
    What was happening for about an hour after signing uo to the Photoshop/Lightroom offer that after going to  https://creative.adobe.com/products, clicking on the Lightroom download then being taken to the Lightroom page with the big blue download buttton clicking on it did not start a download and Lr was not present in the creative cloud toolbar drop down. Both Photoshop and Bridge downloaded without issue.
    24 hours or so  later I tried again and this time Lr was present in the drop down and has now loaded.

    Lightroom says that I have the latest version, but Lightroom does not recognize RAW captures from my new Panasonic DMC-GH4. When will an update for this camera be available?

    The GH4 must be very new as it’s not listed in Adobe’s supported cameras, so wait until the next version of LR.  Usually there is one every 3-4 months with a release-candidate available at Adobe Labs before that:  http://labs.adobe.com/
