Troubleshooting

Installation could not be completed correctly
EU does not start up
EU and the camera are not communicating
If EU is not operating correctly, refer to the items below.
Introduction
O You cannot inst all software unless you are logged into an account with
Administrator privileges. Log in again into an account with Administrator privileges. For how to log in and how to specify Administrator settings, refer to the Users Manual for the Macintosh computer you are using or for Mac OS X.
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.
Preferences Description
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 (p.2).
O Push the plug of the interface cable all the way into the socket. Loose
connections can cause faults and malfunctions (p.5).
O Check that the camera’s power switch is < ON > (p.5).
O EU and the camera may not communicate normally with a cable other
than the EOS DIGITAL camera-dedicated Canon interface cable
(p.5).
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.

Introduction
Communication between EU and the camera disconnected
Remotely shot images using EU do not display in DPP
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 checkmark from [Auto power off] in the [Basic Settings] window (p.34) of the preferences 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 you are using, 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 Users Manual for more information on sleep mode.
