Software issue, computer can't recognize Canon camera

First time poster...
Running Vista 64-bit on a brand new computer... purchased a Blackerry Bold. Everything was running fine on the computer until I installed Blackberry software. Software stopped running... didn't do much anyway. When I installed Blackberry software, I noticed it also did some stuffwith Roxio.
I did an uninstall with windows only for the Blackberry... and didn't manually pull any stuff out of the registry.
I now have a computer that now won't recognize my Canon digital camera.
I uninstalled and reinstalled the Canon Zoom Browser... and tried various restore points for Vista that failed (just before I installed the Blackberry software). Notice on the restore registry the date software was installed, seperate entry for Roxio, and an uninstall for Roxio only. Did not notice an uninstall for Blackeberry... however it is nowhere to be found.
Anyone know a fix for the computer to recognize the camera again?
Thanks,
Richard

Both software apps work fine on the G4 and also on my regular MacBook. The ImageCapture sees the camera and even tells me how many photos are on it. System Profile sees the Canon attached to the USB.
Be sure your Canon software runs on Intel platforms. You were using a PPC before. Most, if not all PPC software is not Leopard compatible. You need all new apps for these things when you run an Intel-based system.

I have an older Kodak which they have stopped supporting and I have to take out the SD card and put it in the card slot to download pictures. I read other threads where this solved similar problems for others. Some have a separate card reader but I just use the one on my imac. Wish it was more convienent to get to it though.

Marco,
Here are some suggestions:
1) Check the manual the Keithley manual to see how to configure the RS-232.
    On some models you need set Factory defaults to USER and turn on the RS-232.
    Also there may be a setting for SCPI which you want on (probably on by default).
2) On your PC - open Device Manager. See if a COM port exists and is functional.
     You must get this working before continuing.
      You can set the COM port parameters by right clicking and selecting Properties.
     (On some PCs the onboard ports can be disabled in the BIOS)
3) If step two was OK, open MAX (Measurement and Automation eXplorer).
    On the left side, click on Devices and Hardware.
    Click on Serial and Parallel.
    Go to the COM port you found in Device Manager.
    Open a VISA Test Panel.
    Now I don't have one I can look at right now, so this is general idea:
   Configure the COM port to match the Keithley settings (should be OK if step 2 worked)
   Go to the (I think) Input Output tab (you want to send a command)
   The command string input should already have a *IDN? entered, if not, type it in.
   Click on the Query button to send the command and check the response.
   If you get an ID string back (Company name, Model, FW Version ...) then it works.
   (Disregard an error saying it did not get enough charcters back.)
I hope this helps,
steve

Help! Computer will not recognize my camera at all!

Hello, everyone. This is my first post, and I am at a loss as to what to do.
I've had my camera for over a year, and I have never had any problems before uploading pictures from my camera to my PowerBook. However, all of the sudden, last night, my computer decided it didn't want to recognize that I had my camera connected! Both iPhoto 4.0.3 and Image Capture are unaware I have my camera connected. The camera I'm using is a Kodak EasyShare Z730.
Any suggestions as to what I should do? I've tried plugging it in a different USB port, and I've tried restarting the computer.
Any ideas would be wonderful!
Thanks in advance!

Can you temporarily connect some other USB device to verify that your PowerBook's USB ports are in working order? Do you have another computer to which your camera can be connected to verify that a working USB connection is being made from the camera?
If we can somehow eliminate a hardware issue, then you can focus on software. Have you tried creating a new admin user account? If the new account recognizes your camera, it would narrow the problem down to something within your regular user account.

My computer can not detect a camera on my iphone 4S

When I connect my phone to my computer, it says it can not detect a camera and I can't download my pictures/videos. How can I fix this?

gdgmacguy asked for the OS your computer is running, why exactly did you think anyone wanted to know the version of iTunes on the computer?
Seems like there may be a user issue here. Try replacing the user, see if that resolves the problem.

Computer won't recognize iPhone camera

I used to have an original iPhone and I used to be able to import my camera roll. It randomly stopped working after a couple of months. I now have a 3GS and it still won't work. I have a Dell Inspiron running Vista. iTunes will still recognize my phone, but my computer won't recognize my phone or the camera. Any ideas about what happened or how I can import pictures again?

In my case, the computer stopped showing images that were on the iphone and only showed blank squares.
You might try this. Open the Image Capture application on your Mac. Open the menu item, Devices > Browse Devices.... If there is a Local Device called Digital Camera rather than the name of your iPhone, see if there is a Connected box that is not checked. Check it and you may find that the device will change to the name of your iPhone and things may begin to work.
If it is checked, you might try unchecking and then rechecking the box.
If your iPhone doesn't show up in the Local Device list, this might point toward the problem. Call iPhone support.

YOu need to reinstall iPhoto.
To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

Ipad2 can not recognize Canon digital camera EOS?

Dear Sir
I connect my digital camera, Canon EOS to Ipad 2 through camera USB kits, and message shows " Cannot USE Device The connected USB device is not supported" on iPad 2 screen. Is it a known issue? I thought the camera kits should be good for all type of digital camera. Any suggestion? Thank you

Yu Chun-
The first article Allan provided includes a note about the format of the card in your camera. If the card was not formatted in the camera, an error message like yours might be generated.
I have an EOS camera that appears to be compatible with the iPad's Camera Connection Kit. I also have another Canon, two Sonys, a Pentax and an old Olympus camera. So far, all appear to be compatible.
If Allan's links don't provide a solution, your best bet may be to use a Compact Flash - to - USB adapter with the Camera Connection Kit. I have one that works, but also have a "universal" multi-card adapter that draws too much current. To use it, I have to connect it through a powered USB hub.

Windows XP computer can't monitor Canon Pixma iP5000 printer status

I just replaced old wireless router with Airport Extreme. Attached Canon Pixma iP5000 and can print using Bonjour, but the Canon BJ printer status applicaton (shows ink levels and reports printer issues) is not working (apparently can't communicate with the printer) on my main computer (Compaq Presario running Windows XP) which is attached to Airport Extreme by ethernet cable. Any suggestions on a solution?

To my knowledge this kind of ability wouldnt work but it all depends on the printer drivers aka "software" as when you have the printer connected to the airport express or extreme its being used via a print server where as the software included with the printer may not support such as most manufacturers intend for the printer to be connected directly. There are however some manufacturers such as hp and so on that do have printers designated as "network printers" that do have such ability to be monitored over the network via software for supplies, status n etc.
To sum it up though from what i can see on the canon website it doesnt look like this is going to work. You can print to it but as for the other features as ink monitoring it looks like unless its directly connected you cant use it.

Computer can't handle multi cam?

I am new to Premiere Pro CC, I have only been using it almost two days. I come from years of Final Cut Pro. Here is the issue:
     If I have 8 high quality camera takes, like a music video, and I want to edit it by doing it with multi-cam, obviously, even though I have a powerful computer, it's not powerful enough to handle 8 camera's of really large footage.
     Now, in Final Cut Pro X, this was easy. All I had to do was select the files I wanted in multi-cam and click, "Create Proxy Media," then I had to click, "Play proxy media and not original," in preferences. I edited the video, then when I was finished and wanted to export, all I had to do was go back to the preferences, uncheck, "Play proxy media," and the multi-cam would automatically now be switched to the original media, not the proxy media. Thus, exporting the high quality files.
    I have looked at tutorials and around the internet, I cannot find how to go about this in Premiere Pro CC. I know how to create the multi cam in Premiere Pro CC but as I said, I'm not going to be able to play it back.
     So, how do I create small play back footage such as proxies, and then turn that off when I'm ready to export and have it replaced with the original footage?

yes, you can try to relink to the originals when time to export. most of the time it will relink fine, but once in a while it goes haywire. the relink doesn't work when swapping out certain different media types, so best to test it all out first before getting stuck with a bad relink after editing is done.
using preview renders is limited, if you apply any effects to the footage it will have to make new preview renders, vs applying effects to a proxy file that wont need to be re-rendered. so its sorta easier just to do it once as proxy and not have to fight preview renders, or worry about the lost preview render bugs.
