Administrator privileges.
For how to log in and how to specify Administrator settings, refer to the User’s Manual for the Macintosh computer or for Mac OS X.
EU does not start up
O
If EU does not start up after following the instructions as explained, the software Preferences file may be corrupted. Quit all software, disconnect the interface cable from your computer, delete the
Preferences file that is corrupted from the [Preferences] folder, and restart EU.
Delete the Preferences file below from the hard disk drive where the system is saved
X [Users] folder X Folder of the logged in user X
[Library] folder
X [Preferences] folder.

EOS Utility Preferences file
The card reader does not detect the SD card.
O
Depending on the card reader and computer OS used, SDXC cards might not be correctly detected. In such a case, connect your camera and computer with the provided interface cable, and transfer the images to your computer.
EU and the camera are not communicating
O
EU does not operate correctly on a computer if its system requirements does not meet. Use EU on a computer with compatible system requirements
.
O
Push the plug of the interface cable all the way into the socket. Loose connections can cause faults and malfunctions
.
O
Check that the camera’s power switch is < ON >
.
O
EU and the camera may not communicate normally with a cable other than the EOS DIGITAL camera-dedicated Canon interface cable
.
O
Connect your camera and computer directly with the interface cable provided with your camera. Do not connect the camera via a hub; doing so may prevent EU and your camera from communicating normally.
O
If you connect multiple USB devices (not including the mouse or keyboard) to your computer, the camera may not communicate normally. If the camera cannot communicate normally, disconnect
USB devices other than the mouse or keyboard from your computer.
O
Do not connect more than one camera to the same computer. Two or more cameras may not operate normally.
O
Do not connect your camera with the computer while performing
“Linked shooting” with WFT-E2 II A/B/C/D, E4 II A/B/C/D, E5A/B/C/D
(sold separately). Your camera may not operate normally.
O
If there is insufficient charge left in the camera battery, the camera cannot communicate with EU. Either replace with a fully charged battery or use the AC adaptor kit provided with your camera. Your computer does not supply power to the camera through the interface cable.
59
Communication between EU and the camera disconnected
O
Operation of the auto power off function will automatically switch the camera off, disabling communication with EU, if you turn the auto power off function to [ON]. Remove the check mark from [Auto power off] in the preferences ([Basic Settings] window)
or set the auto power off function in the camera to [OFF].
O
If you do not perform any operation while the camera and computer are connected, depending on the computer system, a confirmation message may appear on the screen asking whether you wish to continue communicating with the camera. If you do not perform an operation while this message appears, communication with your camera is discontinued and EU shuts down. In this case, turn the camera’s power switch to < OFF >, then again to < ON > and start up
EU.
O
Do not put your computer to sleep while it is connected to the camera.
If your computer goes into sleep mode, never disconnect the interface cable while your computer is still in sleep mode. Always wake your computer up while it is still connected to the camera. Depending on the type of computer, disconnecting the interface cable while your computer is in sleep mode could prevent the computer from waking up correctly. Refer to the computer User’s Manual for more information on sleep mode.
