Introduction Basic Operations Advanced Operations Appendix

Software Described in This Instruction Manual

Using mainly the following two programs, you can import images and manage them on your

computer.

zCameraWindow/EOS Utility

Used for basic image management, such as

importing images from the camera/camcorder.

• Users of cameras/camcorders other than EOS

cameras: Use CameraWindow for these opera-

tions. Also refer to the CameraWindow User

Guide (provided in PDF format).

• EOS camera users: Use EOS Utility for these

operations. However, versions of EOS

Utility before 2.10 are not compatible with

ImageBrowser EX. Also refer to the EOS Utility

Instruction Manual (provided in PDF format).

zImageBrowser EX

• Once you import images from your camera/cam-

corder and close CameraWindow or EOS Utility,

the main ImageBrowser EX window is displayed.

• Use ImageBrowser EX to manage images

imported to your computer. With ImageBrowser

EX, you can browse, edit, and print images on

your computer.

• The display will be updated automatically if you use operating system utilities or

other software to move, delete, or rename folders registered in ImageBrowser EX

(or images in these folders) while ImageBrowser EX is in use. If the display is not

updated automatically, click in the toolbar.

• To view which folders are registered in ImageBrowser EX, see “Configuring

Preference Settings”.

Precautions

Importing Images from Memory Cards

Camera/Camcorder–Computer Connection Precautions

• When connecting the camera/camcorder to a computer via an interface cable, connect

the interface cable directly to the USB port. Connection via a USB hub may prevent correct

operation.

• Using other USB devices (except USB mouse devices or keyboards) when the camera/cam-

corder is connected may prevent correct operation. In this case, disconnect the other devices

from the computer and reconnect the camera/camcorder.

• Do not connect multiple cameras or camcorders to a single computer. This may prevent cor-

rect camera/camcorder operation.

• Do not allow the computer to enter sleep (or standby) mode while a camera/camcorder is con-

nected via an interface cable. If this does happen, leave the interface cable connected to the

computer and try to wake the computer while the camera is still connected. Some computers

may not recover from sleep correctly if the interface cable is disconnected while they are in

sleep mode. For details on sleep or standby mode, refer to the computer user manual.

• Do not disconnect your camera/camcorder from the computer while the CameraWindow or

EOS Utility screen is displayed.

• When connecting a battery-powered camera/camcorder to the computer, make sure

the device is fully charged, or use an AC adapter kit or a compact power adapter

(may be sold separately, depending on your model).

• When connecting an AA battery-powered camera/camcorder to the computer, use

batteries with sufficient charge, optional fully charged AA NiMH batteries, or an

optional compact power adapter.

• For connection instructions, refer to the camera/camcorder user guide.

Click [OK] on the screen displayed

after importing, and then close

CameraWindow.

Imported images are now shown in the main

ImageBrowser EX window.

• On initial ImageBrowser EX startup, a screen

is displayed for specifying where to save

imported images. Follow the instructions dis-

played to choose the destination folder .

• Importing problems may occur if there are

too many images (more than 1,000) on the

memory card. In this case, use a memory card

reader to import the images. For instructions

on importing images from a memory card

reader, see “Importing Images from Memory

Cards”.

•

Movies take longer to import, due to the

larger file size.

from being shown in ImageBrowser EX. Instead, use CameraWindow for importing.

• CameraWindow may not start up in some versions of Windows, even when you

connect your camera/camcorder. In this case, click the ‘Start’ menu and select ‘All

Programs’ Æ ‘Canon Utilities’ Æ ‘CameraWindow’ Æ ‘CameraWindow’.

• If CameraWindow does not start up even when you connect your camera, click the

‘CameraWindow’ Dock icon.
