Problems with Canon EOS Utility & Canon 5D Mark II

Canon EOS utility cannot see my 5D Mark II connected via USB.
I've installed the latest 5D firmware (1.2.4), latest EOS Utility (2.7.2) and i'm running Snow Leopard 1.6.2.
When I open EOS utility it cannot recognize the camera, neither with Snow leopard default photo import application.
How can i solve it? Already tested the usb cable and all the option under camera menus...

Yes, just started using this and noticed pretty soon afterwards. Seems to happen when I start clicking around or doing anything that uses the processor more than just surfing the web, but that's just anecdotal. I immediately stopped and started using MPEG Streamclip, but I really want the timecode.
Most recently, I had Log and Transfer open, transcoding some 7D footage, and a few of the clips didn't come in—they were left with the red stop-sign symbol/exclamation point. When I clicked to "retry," it stopped importing the current clip and started on the clip I retried. I clicked "retry" on another unimported clip, and again, the clip import stopped and the new clip began processing. I let it go through and, after the checking the footage, I discovered it had been incorrectly named the first clip's filename! Needless to say, I hand-checked every file to make sure it was the right duration (a few weren't), deleted the files from the Capture Scratch folder, and reimported—making sure I didn't touch the computer.
I hope they fix this bug, whatever it is.
BTW, I've experienced it on two separate Mac Pros.

Focus problems with Canon 1D Mark III

I have been having problems with my 1D Mark III, it take an unusually long time to focus. The problem is especially prevalent indoors. I am using a Canon 24 to 70 IS lens.

I have had the camera since it first came out, however I also aready had a Canon 20D at the time. I seemed to do better with the 20D. I recently bought a Canon 7D and it focuses much faster. I am very displeased with the 1D Mark III.
I am an experienced photographer, photography is a passion I have studied and pursued. The 20D was my first DSLR, prior to that I shot with a Nikon 2020 film camera.
The problem with the 1D Mark III is that it takes an unusually long time to autofocus. Due to this, I usually relied on the 20D. When I bought the 7D I retired the 20D and paired the new camera with he 1D for gigs (weddings, parties etc.). It is frustrating to attempt shots with the camera and have subjects wait for me to shoot.

RAW Processing problems with Canon 5D Mark iii

I am having problems with the RAW files coming from my new 5D Mark iii in Aperture. I have the latest version of Aperture (and update) installed. Selecting a picture style on the 5D doesn't seem to yield any results because when I import the photo into aperture all the images go very dark. I have to pull the exposure levels up all the way to get a decent exposure. The histogram on my camera looks perfect but when imported into Aperutre the histogram changes. I have my custom picture style set to give me a very flat image (contrast off, sharpening off, saturation -2, color tone 0). The images looks very flat and perfect in my LCD but once imported into aperture the RAW processing makes it very dark. I even tried shooting the exact photo in three completely different picture styles but they all look identical once they are in aperture. What's going on??

Here is a side by side comparison of a RAW image in the latest versions of Aperture and Lightroom. I have never had these issues with the 5D Mark II only the Mark III. As you can see Lightroom produces a nice flat image while Aperture is under-exposing the image. Any thoughts? I really want to continue to use Aperture but with my recent camera upgrade to the Mark III I don't see how this is possible. Anyones help would be much appreciated.

Problem with Canon LPB 6670,

Hello, I have problem with Canon LPB 6670, while printing both sides the paper is jammed every time

First clarify this statement...
I captured video, and when I went on FCP and did log and capture, it said the camcorder was offline.<</div>
Have you already captured with this camera or are you trying to capture with it now?
If you're trying to capture with it now, are you capturing to an external harddrive? If so, the problem may be because you're overtaxing your FW bus.
If you're not already, you might try capturing to your internal (so the iMac is only accessing the camera on the single FW bus), then transfer the media to an external to edit.
Does the iMac recognize the camera? (check in System Profiler)
Is the camera in playback mode?
Have you tried shutting down and making sure your camera is on before opening FCP?

Problem with Canon RAW 5D/7D Raw file and Magenta highlights

Hi everyone,
I've noticed a problem with some Canon RAW nightly shots when in scene are present magenta spotlights (also red and blue):
In the core of light, magenta color become "solarized" and white burned, and there is no way to recover it with any Adjustments. (also but in minor way, Red and Blue lights)
Opening the RAW file in Canon Digital Photo Pro the same images are perfect:
(left image Aperture3 - right image Canon DPP)
Any suggestion?

I have exactly the same problem with the 7D RAW files. I have tried Leopard+ Aperture 2, Snow Leopard + Aperture 3 trial and nothing makes a difference. Horrible magenta colour cast on the neutral tones, yet the blues are over-saturated and total lack of sharpness no matter what you do.
I shot JPEG (neutral) and RAW together so know what they should look like. I don't get any problems with Canon DPP software so the error seems to be in the Aperture RAW converter. The issue seems to be more apparent in low light or images with a lot of neutral tones, other images shot outside in good light appear to be pretty much ok. I even tried the latest version of Lightroom and that can't seem to handle them well either.
The link below was a thread that was running on the 7D problems, but no solution was ever provided.

Problem with HP Printer Utility and Mac OSX 10.5.4

I have a problem with HP printer Utility. When a standard user adds a new paper profile HP Printer Utility asks to type an administrator's name and password to allow HP printer Utility to make changes. Is it possible to avoid this? Otherwise I have to give admin rights to every user because they have to be able to add new papers. HP printer Utility sharing and permisssions are set to read and write to everyone.

Raw file rendering problems with Canon EOS 5D in Aperture 3

Since upgrading to Aperture 3, I have had serious problems with the rendering of Canon EOS 5D (not Mark II/III) RAW files. With Aperture 2, both the preview and full-sized images looked basically the same as the original images as displayed on the camera's display, without any adjustments.
With Aperture 3, each preview images initially look fine after import, but when Aperture re-renders it from the RAW file (e.g. when displaying the full-size image), the colors are drastically intensified, and the hue is shifted generally towards green/blue. I've checked the RAW Fine Tuning, and it is set to the defaults. If I turn the default RAW Fine Tuning settings all the way down, the image is still not at all like the preview from the camera - it becomes much darker and stays too blue/green, with washed-out colors.
A friend with a Canon EOS 5D MkII also recently upgraded her Mac from Aperture 2 to 3, and hasn't experienced any problems. We've tried importing RAW files from my (non-MkII) camera to her Mac (with the default RAW Fine Tuning settings), and get the same results as with my own Mac (i.e. strange colors), so the problem seems to be related to the camera model.
I've also noticed that scanned greyscale tiff images (including images that were originally imported under Aperture 2) are changed when first displayed by Aperture 3 - they become darker and more contrasty, with lots of information lost in the shadow areas.
I've also tried removing Aperture preferences, Aperture itself, and re-installing from download, with no change in the problem. (Aperture is the current latest version, 3.3.2.)
Has anyone experienced similar problems?

I'm having the same problem.
iMac running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4 and Aperture 3.3.2. Workflow is importing through Canon's DPP and then using referenced images in Aperture. The images look great in LR4, or Canon's DPP but are flat and dingy in Aperture.
There's a free preset that goes part way to fixing it at http://theapertureblog.com/2011/02/10/my-aperture-workflow-for-working-with-cano n-5d-mark-ii-files/
but as good as this fix is, it doesn't quite do the trick. [not being a hater, and not saying I can do better]
I just got back from shoooting 1,500 images with a 5DMii and a T2i using Canon 24-105L IS, 70-200 2.8L, 50 1.8 and a Sigma 120-400 and the T2i images are not just better, they're in a different league.
I've tried shooting in Faithful, Neutral and also toggling these presets in different ways and still can't get Aperture to match what I see on the camera's screen or in other Apps. I love the interface and DB of Aperture, but what's the point of using it if it doesn't produce and awesome image in the end?

Problem with Canon EOS 5D MK II & LR 2.2

Good day! I love LR. I've used it very successfully wih my Nikon D-80. I've recently purchased a Canon EOS 5D MK II & upgraded to LR 2.2. I've got an issue with importing RAW images. None of the 3 RAW sizes are recognized by LR. When I go to import the images from device, the RAW picture files are displayed as gray blocks with no picture detail. Check marks are still there and I can go through the motions of importing, but there is always an error message that the files are unrecognizable. I would hate to start shooting in JPEG again. Does anyone have any advise that may help?
Thanks ahead
Rich

Try using a dedicated card reader instead of importing directly from the camera.

Problem with delay printing utilizing a canon IR c1030 with the lasted drivers

Hi, I am a total noob at Mac OS
I have Macbook pro with Mountain Lion installed I also have conected to our organization a Airport Express which I use around the office. The problem is that my department have a network printer Canon IR C1030 which I installed the lasted driver UFRII but when I print its takes a very long time and most time a get the error code: 9 and out of 10 pages I get only 3 to 4.my guesss is that is a problem with the Airport Express and latency but I am not sure. could someone give me a clue what to do next
Thanks in advance

Does the iR C1030 have support for WiFi or is it using it's built-in Ethernet port to connect to the AirPort Express? Or are you using the USB port on the C1030 to connect to the Express?
If the C1030 is connecting to the Express via Ethernet, then as a test I would suggest you connect the MacBook Pro to the Express via Ethernet also.
Note that if there is only a single Ethernet port on the Express then you will need a unswitched hub to connect to this port on the Express and then you can connect the Mac and C1030 to the other Ethernet ports on the hub.
If you get the same latency when printing from Mac for this Ethernet-only setup, then this would confirm that it is not a WiFi issue and there is something else contributing to the delay.

Printing problem with Canon LBP3370

I'm having an issue relating to the Canon LBP3370.
I also notice that Canon Europe seem to have removed all trace of any MacOSX drivers from the support page for this printer.
I have an 'early' MBP running 10.6.6 w/ Suitcase3, QXP8.5 and CS5.
Just bought a MacMini updated to 10.6.7. Same software. Same files. Same fonts.
I have one file which gets printed weekly from a template in QXP. It prints fine on the MBP on a Canon LBP3370 using the last 'auto updated' driver. Not sure how to check the version number of the driver, but it works. I looked in 'About this Mac' and looked up the printer, and it says driver version is 2.0 - then again, it says the same for the version on the MacMini, which was installed today using an installer marked 2.24.
On the MacMini, the same file, on the same software yields an output error to the printer and requests the printer be switched to 'raster' mode in 'Quality' settings in order to print, which I understand yields diminished quality on more complex files.
I experimented with the file, removing elements and isolating them in another document to test if they print OK on the MacMini. 99% of all the page elements print just fine including a complex EPS without switching to 'raster' mode. All except for... wait for it... a SINGLE weight of the Adobe Helvetica Neue LT Std OpenType font. The document has about seven separate weights of the same font in use, and it is only one of them that triggers this problem.
I've scanned the font completely for errors and corruption and it gets a clean bill of health. The exact same font, on the MBP, using the same software and the same printer, but used on 10.6.6 prints perfectly without having to switch to raster mode.
Bizarre.
What actually is the difference between UFR and Raster modes anyway? How do I fix this? It seems more likely to be a 10.6.7 issue than a Canon driver issue specifically... I notice the webs full of people commenting on 10.6.7 causing problems with OpenType fonts.
Any ideas?

sig
Not really, thanks anyway. I'm already on a later driver than that.
PAHU
Thanks for the input. I'm still somewhat confused by the aparrent existence of two different problems - first the sheer number of complaints that 10.6.7 in itself has broken a good deal of OpenType font functionality, particularly in the PostScript flavour, and second that users have been having similar specific problems with this exact printer which appears to be a result of a driver in need of fixing.
I'm not sure which option to place my bet on, or whether indeed the two are, in fact, connected and the development of the 2.24 and later drivers are in essence 'fixes' for the 'breakage' introduced by 10.6.7 in general.
The part that confuses me most is that it is a single weight out of five weights of the same font used in the same document which causes the problem. Part of me says that the solution is to just abandon that specific weight, but then another part of me says that I'm managing some three thousand faces on this system, any of which could need to be used, and I cannot test all of them to disable or deactivate the weights (or families) which might cause issues.
Can you point me in the direction of a clean, pure source of 2.24 for UK English, which I cannot find on the Canon Europe website at all (certainly on the UK site, all Mac drivers for this model appear to have been discontinued and removed from the site, even though the vestigial tech notes for the printer still on display on the product page state that MacOSX is supported). I'm prepared to try a reinstall from a fresh source to see if it shifts the problem. Otherwise, as you say, it would appear that another 'bug' has been found which the attempted fix has not cleared.

Problems with Canon Pixma iP4300

I just purchased a new Canon Pixma iP4300 printer and can't find it in Printer Setup Utility to add as a new printer.
When I connect it directly to my MacBook Pro (Core Duo) it is invisible. I have downloaded the latest drivers available from Canon. Given the point below I am fairly certain it is not a problem with my USB cable either because the printer is recognised when I plug my USB printer cable into the Airport Express.
Confusingly, I can connect to it through my Airport Express base-station using Bonjour. A problem with this connection is that it does not allow me to use the utilities - so, for example, I can't align the print heads - or use any of the other software that came with the printer because it doesn't recognise the printer over the wireless network.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

And as soon as I posted this I found a spare USB cable and tried that... and it worked.
I guess the USB cable connects properly with the Airport Express and not with my MacBook Pro. Curious. Very curious.
