Why wont my MacBook Pick up my Canon Powershot A80?

there are some pictures i want on my mac and it wont read my camera! its a Canon Powershot A80

Did you install the drivers? If not, go here: http://driverscollection.com/?H=PowerShot%20A80&By=Canon
How are you connecting the camera to the Mac? USB?
And, make sure your Finder Preferences are set correctly. Finder/Preferences/General. Make sure the top 4 boxes are checked.

  • MacBook Air not recognizing Canon PowerShot

    I just got home from vacation excited to import photos to my MacBook Air (either using Picasa or iPhoto) from my Canon PowerShot SD3500IS.
    For the first time, my MacBook doesn't recognize the camera. I tried connecting to my old camera too and nothing. I tried Googling for the issue and nothing made sense.
    An help?

    Thanks for the suggestion.
    Turns out the memory card had too many pictures on it. I cleared some out and everything worked. Sigh.

  • Why wont my macbook pro boot with external hard drives connected?

    After two years of uninterrupted success running my MBP with five external hard drives attached (two USB, two eSATA with LaCie Expresscard 34, one FireWire 800), my MacBook Pro with Mountain Lion 10.8.2 installed will not boot with the drives attached. Starting up with the option key depressed does not work. Anyone have insight? This didn't happen until I upgraded to 10.8.2, so is there a bug fix needed in that update?

    Update, I reset the PRAM (i think) and now the chime is back as I start up... small win but thats all it does.
    So I decided to dload a copy of Lion and burn to a disc, then try and boot from there. When i boot holding option and select the dvd it sounds like something is happening, contstant turning or reading of the disk, but nothing is happening on screen, just my old friend the apple logo and his mate the spinning wheel. Starting to concede now, just hoping to get my data back, its mostly photos and some files i cant duplicate.
    I am going to purchase Mountain lion on my current apple ID using a friends macbook and try and reinstall from there. Although i never had Mountain Lion installed in the first place (just lion) there isnt an option to buy lion on the app store (i dont think)  This is prob my last spin of the dice i think before handing it in, unless anyone on here has some ideas....

  • Why wont my MacBook import my iphone photo's?

    Macbook

    Number Of Processors: 1

    iPhone 4
    I have been trying to sync my photo's from my phone to my macbook.  All of sudden I am unable to import my photos to my macbook.  My macbook discovers the phone and i can see it under devices on the left side of iPhoto, but it will not let me import the photos.  I have tried unplugging and re plugging it to the macbook no help.  I have connect my iphone to a hp notebook and was able to import the photos no problem.  Which makes me feel 100% this issue is in the computer not the phone.  Any chance for a quick fix?

    Might find it easier to import photos from your iPhone to your Mac using the Image Capture app located in your Applications folder.
    Launch Image Capture then connect the iPhone to a USB port.
    The iPhone should show up under Devices top left side of the Image Capture window.
    Now look at the bottom left side of the window. Click the: Connecting this (device) opens: pop up menu and select an application to import your photos to.
    You can also select a folder to import photos from the Import To: pop up menu.
    Select the photos you want to import then click Import or Import All on the right.

  • Why wont my ipad pick up wifi anymore

    My iPad all of a sudden stopped picking up wifi. Whats the problem?

    Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
    iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks  http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304
    iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • Why wont my Macbook Pro Start in OSX anymore, it seems to love windows?

    Alright, so I'm running bootcamp and have done so flawlessly for the past year. My Mac asked me recently if I wanted to install updates and restart, I clicked yes and upon returning to my macbook it said an error had occured installing the updates, i thought nothing of it and shut down the computer.
    Since Then the computer will only start in windows xp, If i hold down the option key and both partitions show up, I click on the Macintosh HD partition, and instead of seeing the mac logo pop up, a small 'x' flashes and it starts in windows.
    Could anyone help me? this is quite frustrating.

    Furious400:
    Try Repair Disk
    Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
    Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    (Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel, and report if it says anything but Verified)
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    If DU reports errors it cannot repair you will need to use a utility like Tech Tool Pro or Disk Warrior

  • Canon Powershot S90, Places no longer working?

    Hi, my wife and I recently went on a trip to Seattle and Alaska, and before we left we picked up a Canon Powershot S90. The pictures we were taking in Seattle were great, and the Places stuff in iPhoto was working great. Somewhere between one side of Seattle and the other, all the gps/Places info stopped being saved to the pictures, and we got no more Places information for the rest of the trip
    Can someone please help?

    Sounds like a camera setting or hardware issue - not an iPhoto issue - suggest reading the manual for the camera and/or use the Canon support forum
    iPhoto takes properly formed EXIT location data and displays it - the camera is the source of the information

  • Why wont my brand new macbook pro boot to an external disk?

    why wont my brand new macbook pro boot to an external disk?  I have the 10.7.4 on both.  The MBP came with it so I installed it onto the hard drive i have been using the same way with an older macbook pro but the new MBP does not see the startup disk.  So i installed the same version of the os onto the MBP by hooking it up to my imac as a target disk because it would not recognize the install usb stick.  Now the brand new MBP doesnt start up

    I had the same issue.  The 2012 macbook pro has a different 10.7.4 build that is not yet available for public release.  It won't boot no matter how much you try.  You need to wait for Mountain Lion and create a start up disk from ML.  Apple most likely will release a 10.7.4 update for the 2012 models, but they are focused on ML now.
