Hi everyone.

I have been using Canon Dpp 3 for the past 9 years " raw edits"

Camera gave up a few months back so I have had to upgrade.

I bought the R6. Dpp 3 would not open the new files so I installed Dpp4.

Also installed the Utilities software at the same time. I had not used that before to download my images to the pc. Turns out it is a nice piece of software as it made folders with date taken then downloaded the files to them pretty much automatically.

So all went well when I first used the software.

I had not downloaded any images for a while, plus the pc had some issues I think relating to updating at some point, anyhow it is behaving itself at the moment.

Problem is when I connect the camera to the pc " Utilities" via cable it is not allowing me to downlaod the file the tabs are greyed out apart from the montitor folder option which i'm not sure about anyway.

If I open the Dpp4 and navigate to the camera it see's camera and folders on the card but not the files.

If I access the camera form within windows and drag the files onto hard drive thats fine. This is how I used to download my images. Dpp4 will see the files and allow editing.

Some screenshots below.

I would appreciate any help with this. Is there something on the camera I may have done ?

You need to use EOS Utility 3. It should automatically open when you turn the camera on.

Many thanks.

I uninstalled what I had (not sure of the version) judging from your reply the wrong one.
Then downloaded the most up to date version 3.1. All is working now.

Thanks again.
