My Canon EOS 400D isn't reconized after 10.5.5 (HELP)

Hello,
My canon 400D isn't reconized anymore since the 10.5.5 update, iPhoto starts when i connect the camera , but you don't see the device to show up. (also not in the Finder)
When i start Aperture it also fails, it stops responding at the startup picture.
Does anybody have a solution, i need to use the camera professionally, so i really hope apple is working on this?
Thank you in advance

The article just recommended reinstalling the 2.1 updater. It was at either MacInTouch or MacFixit but I've not been able to find it. There is a way you could downgrade but it involves an Archive and Install (while keeping the user and internet settings) and then apply the various system, quicktime, iLife support and other updates to the version you want. A lot of work but a last ditch fix. If you do something like at, either now or in the future, I recommend you download the latest updaters from the Apple Downloads page and install them manually. That way you can get the combo system updaters and only those others that you need or want.
UPDATE: I found the posting at MacIntouch:
"TS Low
There is a serious flaw for many users with the latest MacOS update 10.5.5 and the Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 2.2 which followed shortly thereafter.
The problem causes Aperture and Image Capture (and some say even iPhoto) to hang and sometimes crash on imports. About a dozen threads sprang up on the Apple Support Forums immediately after the updates came out. Critically, some of the newer camera models are affected by the RAW update, so instead of enabling, the update is crippling image import.
Apparently someone took an afflicted system to an Apple Store where the baffled staff got in touch with the mother ship directly and were informed that the problem was known and would be resolved by yet another update soon. The Apple engineer's are on it, but frankly, this is very poor quality control. Apple is already ridiculously late in supporting many models of camera compared to Adobe. Apple's photography support has been found wanting lately and could be evidence of a company stretched too thin.
In the meantime, some users have found respite from the problem by downgrading to Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 2.1 found at:
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/digitalcamerarawcompatibilityupdate21.htm l"
I don't know where Low got the info on it fixing the problem for others.

  • RAW of Canon EOS 400D: No Preview before Importing, no import in projects..

    Hi all
    After updating to 1.5.1. and RAW Support 1.0.1, I experience following behavior: After connecting my Canon EOS 400D, there is no preview of the RAW-Pictures. JPEG-Pictures work fine. Then, when I import, the RAW-Pictures get imported not on the project I pointed it to (and the JPEGs are imported as planned), but still are imported and viewable perfectly afterwards in the "year" folder.
    Does anybody have the same issue and by accident know how to sort this out? Thanks in advance!

    It sounds as though the RAW update did not work.
    To check, go to
    System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framewor
    k/Versions/A/Frameworks/ImageIO.framework/Versions/A/R
    esources
    Open Raw.plist in a text editor. Scroll down and you
    should see Canon 400D. If not, you need to reapply
    the update.
    I had real problems with the original universal, so I
    suggest you use the specific PPC or Intel version for
    your machine.
    G.
    Thank you for the hints. The camera is listed in the plst file, and I noticed something else: The RAW-Pictures get imported in a "new project" which is automatically created. JPEGs are imported in the project I selected. So basically it is not really a big problem, since the import works and the pictures are displayed correctly after importing them, but still I find the behaviour somehow strange... I will play around some more and see if I can sort it out. By the way, I only found the universal version for my MBP - there is no "intel"-specific.

  • Canon EOS 400D Raw file Adjustment

    Hi
    My question may sound like beginner level but that is where I am.
    I have a Canon EOS 400D (Rebel XTI in US) and mainly shoot RAW images.
    Recently bought Aperture 2. It imported and displayed the images but could not do any adjustments. The adjustment inspector in grey meaning inactive for the RAW images.
    Please educate me
    Badra

    Bingo
    That helped. It was yellow border. I changed and RAW adjustment is working.
    Thanks for the quick response

  • I am not able connect my canon eos 400d with mac pro 10.7.2, i am not able connect my canon eos 400d with mac pro 10.7.2

    hi, i have downloaded canaon utility for macbook pro 10.7.2 but whenver i connect the camera it fails, kindly help...

    There's a disk coming with the camera - have you installed all relevant software on your Mac?
    Your signature says you are on OS X 10.7.2 - is that true?
    Anyway, on the Canon website(s) you'll find updates for their apps and drivers. Make sure you have what's compatible with your OS X, nothing more and nothing less.
    Confirm?

  • Can't install Canon EOS Digital Solution disk

    Hi,
    Have got a problem installing 'EOS digital solution disk' which came with my Canon EOS 400D digital SLR camera. Here is a description of what happens:
    I click on 'CANON EOS Digital Installer' icon as instructed. First something called 'MasterInstaller' launches, and I select 'Europe' then 'UK' when prompted. The main menu appears again and I select 'Install', then 'Next' then 'Easy Install'.
    I 'Agree' the terms, then hit 'Next' in Starting Installation window.
    At this point, 'Installer' launches and a window appears with the text "Preparing to install ImageBrowser" (with a blue striped barber pole type line beneath) but nothing happens. The blue stripes do not 'move' as is normally the case when something is working. It just locks up, and usually the Mac beachball of death will spin. I've tried leaving it ages to sort itself out, but nothing changes.
    When I go into the 'Force Quit' option from the pull down menu in Finder, (as everything is stuck) the 'Installer' and 'MasterInstaller' are usually highlighted in red, I guess meaning they've either crashed or got lost. Sometimes the Finder joins in too (being highlighted in red).
    I'm not running any other applications, and I've tried doing a Custom Install, (instead of 'Easy') and choosing only 1 application at a time, and disconnected my external drive but to no avail.
    I tried emailing Canon, but they have just suggested I try loading it onto another Mac but I don't have one or access to one either.
    Some help would be appreciated.
    P.S. Gave disk to my partner to try on his PC and he said it loaded ok, so I assume it's not a faulty disk.

    So it still said Keys out of order ? That is a pretty serious error that Disk Utility rarely is able to repair. I would run it again and report to us exactly what is reported when you attempt a repair (not verify) please.
    Hi Dale,
    Well, the plot thickens....
    I kept running the DU repair (about 5 or 6 times), and interestingly enough kept getting EXACTLY the same message:
    Checking HFS Plus volume
    Checking Extents Overflow file
    Checking Catalog file
    Keys out of order
    Rebuilding Catalog B-tree
    Repair completed
    No details or other messages about what the specific problem was. (Is there a way to find out?)
    Well, I took another look on the link you posted and ran an 'fsck'. (I still have no idea what that means but it sounded as if it may throw up some info.) Indeed it did and here's what appeared after I typed '/sbin/fsck -fy':
    ** /dev/rdiskOs9
    ** Root file system
    ** Checking HFS Plus volume
    ** Checking Extents Overflow file
    ** Checking Catalog file
    diskOs9: 0x8 (UNDEFINED)
    Keys out of order
    (4, 1886)
    ** Rebuilding Catalog B-tree
    diskOs9: 0x8 (UNDEFINED)
    ** The volume Mac Hard Disk could not be repaired.
    sh-2.05a#
    (Hopefully there aren't any typos, I just typed this in myself, having written down the info on paper.)
    Obviously the DU knows there's a problem, but simply thinks it's fixing it every time I run a repair. A bit like Groundhog Day I guess....
    Now what??

  • I bought a canon EOS Rebel T5i. It came with photoshop elements 11.  PS won't open my C2 raw files and says my camera isn't supported by the software I have downloaded 7.4 dng converter and I still can't open the files.  What do I need to do?

    I bought a canon EOS Rebel T5i. It came with photoshop elements 11.  PS won't open my C2 raw files and says my camera isn't supported by the software I have downloaded 7.4 dng converter and I still can't open the files.  What do I need to do?

    You need camera raw 8.4 for your camera, if it’s Digital Rebel T5 EOS 1200D EOS Kiss X70. It is not compatible with PSE11; so it’s a bit odd if that software was bundled with the camera except that it will work with jpegs. I suggest you download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your CR2 files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the DNG files will editable in PSE11(keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
    Mac download (.dmg file) click here DNG Converter 8.4
    You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

  • After loading Lion I cannot open some pictures. I get Unsupported Image Format. It tells me picture was taken with Canon EOS Rebel with unknown lens

    After loading Lion I cannot open open some pictures in Aperture. I get Unsupported Image Format, all files even the ones I can open are .JPG. Also it tells me picture was made using Canon EOS Rebel with unknown lens.

    You mention that 'most' of your files are DNG. Try
    running the effected files through Adobe DNG
    converter again and then import your reprocessed
    files to Aperture and see if the problem persists.
    I had a problem with a batch of D2x files converted
    to DNG which had been metadata tagged by
    PhotoMechanic (the evil app).
    B.T.W. You mention that you had been using Bridge.
    Are you getting any of the embedded XMP metadata
    coming into Aperture during the import process?
    Already tried that multiple times...no luck. I'm wondering though if it might be related to metadata as you suggest. I'm still trying different things to see what happens.
    I was able to alleviate the problem on one set of images by painstakingly searching my external drive for the oldest backups I could find - CR2 files from before DNG conversion. I then ran those through DNG Converter and tried importing them again (this time, I embedded NO thumbnail, but I'm not sure if that made the difference - I think it was more likely a fluke in the original conversion that caused the problem). This time, it worked.
    Now, the big problem is that I still have a couple hundred images for which I can't seem to locate the original CR2 files. I don't typically keep them after conversion, as I don't have the space for both.

  • Missing photos after import - Canon EOS Digital Rebel

    Hi,
    After two calls to Apple Support I have solved this issue for this digital roll of 12 raw format images. Here are details for whoever might be interested.
    For some reason, iPhoto 6.0.6 was unable to import all of the images from a Canon EOS Digital Rebel camera. 7 out of 12 downloaded fine, however iPhoto seemed to stall at 5 remaining.
    Further efforts to rebuild photo library did not help, and the images were never transferred from the camera to the iPhoto 6.0.6 on MacBook Pro Intel (not in original folder).
    Then I tried to import the images to the iPhoto 6.0.6 on MacBook Pro Intel via a different user. Then I deleted the first 7 images from the memory card, and tried to import with iPhoto and with ImageCapture. None of these worked.
    Then a new memory card with 4 test images (2 large, 2 raw) did import to iPhoto ok.
    Then I used Canon File Viewer Utility to drag the 5 images from the first memory card to the desktop. And then I reformatted that memory card.
    Before deleting or reformatting the memory card I was also able to import the 12 images to a 12in PowerBookG4 with iPhoto5 version 5.0.4 ok.
    From now on however I will be counting the images from card to iPhoto.
    MacBook Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.9)

    There's an alternative. You can use the pre installed Image Capture app located in your Applications folder to import photos to your Mac.

  • Canon EOS Kiss Digital X Support Not Working

    I have just installed the RAW Support update that is meant to provide support for the 400D/XTi/Kiss Digital X. I bought my camera in Japan, so I have the Kiss Digital X.

  • How do you import photos from a Canon EOS 60d into Lightroom without distortion of photos?

    Is there a plug in needed or how does one get the photos from Canon EOS camera into Lightroom?  My come through looking distorted and noisy.

    Ok, full story...
    I have a Canon EOS 60D and was editing in DPP software that came with the camera. 
    I wanted more editing options so I bought Lightroom.
    All of a sudden photos that look good at home were being sent to printer and I was being told they couldn't print them at all. If I take the exact same photo, import it into the DPP software and edit it to look good on my computer and send it to the same printer they print it with no issues.
    I was selling on Deposit Photos some, now they won't even accept my photos the quality is so bad. But again, same photo edited in DPP they accept again.
    THere are two issues I am having, the one going to the printer or deposit photos is they leave my computer looking bright and good to me and get to the other site so dark you can't see the photo at all.
    The biggest issue I have been noticing is if I shoot with 200, 320 or 400 ISO, they look very fuzzy and I thought pixelated at first.  After reading forums with other Canon users having the same issue, people are saying it isn't true pixelation.  That the real problem is Lightroom not being able to intrepret the data so they look like there is a lot of noise and I have a bad picture.
    Before reading forums, I had also emailed Canon to see if there was an issue with my camera.  This was Canon's reply.... If you are recording RAW image files, are you using the Canon software to convert them to jpg or a third party program?  Sometimes programs like Lightroom and Photoshop do not interpret the files correctly and the result could be noise or a colorshift.  Please make sure that you are using the latest version of the RAW plugin for which ever software application you are using, or try using the Digital Photo Professional software included on the EOS Solution disk.
    I use Lightroom 4 and it has been updated regularly to the latest updates as they come out.
    I shoot in RAW only and never shoot above 400 ISO, usually 160-320 range.
    I have taken the same photos at 400 ISO and opened them in the DPP software and there is no noise at all, nice and clear.  I am only having this issue when I put them into Lightroom.
    I would really prefer to edit in LIghtroom as you have a lot more creative options there but there has to be something I need to do that they work in Lightroom as they do in DPP.  I have also used NERO in the past with no issues.  The printer person I send to is accepting them in Photoshop.
    Do I need to purchase some sort of plugin to have them work in Lightroom? Distortion was a bad choice of word, more fuzzy noise look then true distortion, sorry about that confusion.
    Thanks

  • Canon EOS 5D Mark II with Adobe Bridge (CS4) and Camera Raw 5.4

    I use a Canon EOS 5D Mark II and store in RAW-format.
    The camera is updated with latest software etc.
    I have the Adobe Design CS4 package on my computer and updated to the camera raw 5.4 version (bridge/photoshop/etc).
    All this is updated to last versions / updates etc.
    I upload my pictures from the camera to my computer.
    When I inspect the files with the Canon software such as "Digital Photo Professional 3.6.1.0" or "Canon Utilities ZoomBrowser EX 6.3.1" (this are the latest versions and updates)  the files are copied correct to my computer.
    The files can be opened with the canon software without any problem and can be modified and converted and all normal operations can be performed.
    The files can also be converted to ".jpg" and no problem occurs.
    The problem starts after the folder with the pictures (in RAW-format) has been opened / viewed in Adobe Bridge or after Adobe bridge is started.
    After starting and viewing with bridge the folder only some of the file become corrupted and cannot be used anymore.So the majority of the files remain OK but some files become corrupt.
    A part of the picture is visible partly, the remaining part are lines, dots, squares etc and the divisions of correct picture and corrupted seems to be at random. There is no structure in the way the corrupted file are shown in bridge. Please look at the enclosed picture in this message.
    The files can be opened in Camera Raw and Photoshop but they show the corrupted file and can be stored etc.
    But the picture is destroyed.
    Does anybody have a sollution or similar problems?
    Best regards

    There are forums for Bridge, Camera RAW and Photoshop.
    Any of them would be better than posting here.

  • Iphoto will no longer recognize my camera, says it does not recognize the format....they are jpegs? And now it will not even open when I plug my Canon Eos Camera in to download. I have checked everything on the camera and it is working perfectly....

    Iphoto will no longer open when attaching my Canon Eos Camera. I have checked the camera and everything is working perfecty. When I open it myself, Iphoto is working perfectly too. But now when I attach the camera, Iphoto no longer opens at all. Yesterday it did open after a really long wait but it kept saying that it did not recognize the "format" of the images....they were jpegs??? Then it flashed on and off and if I hit download at just the right second they would download. But today it won't work at all. Any suggestions.
    thanks

    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
