How To Download Photos From Canon Camera To Mac

Before you can make any edits to your pictures, you first need to get them from your camera or phone to your computer. This can be done in a few simple steps.

The interface cable that comes with the camera is IFC-100U, of which both terminals of the USB are Type-C. If your computer is not a type-C terminal, then it cannot be used. Please refer to the computer’s manual for details regarding connection parts.

Import photos from a camera or phone using Photos on Mac. You can connect a camera, iPhone, iPad or other mobile device to your Mac and import your photos into the Photos app. You can also import photos from a camera’s memory card. See Import photos from storage devices and DVDs using Photos. Open Photos for me. A Mac can receive videos from any camera, be it a 100K Red Dragon or an off-brand GoPro knock-off. But then, you might just want to move videos from your Gallery or Camera Roll. Either way, there shouldn’t be too much of a problem to download a video.

You can use the photo software program that came with your digital camera. In this guide, I’ve used the Windows 10 built-in Photos App which follow a very similar process.

You’ll need:

  • a computer
  • a digital camera
  • a memory card from your camera (see right) to insert in your computer’s memory card slot. If your computer doesn’t have a memory card slot, you’ll need an external hard drive or memory card reader. Alternatively, if you have an appropriate USB cable, you may be able to connect your camera or phone directly to your computer.

Step 4: Select Import > From a USB device, then follow the instructions. You can pick the items you want to import and select where to save them. Allow a few moments for detection and transfer.

Alternative method: You don’t always need to use photo software to transfer photos from your camera. You can move photos from your camera as if you are moving them from an external hard drive or flash drive. Here is how:

Step 1: Connect one end of the USB cable to the port in your camera.

Step 2: Connect one the other end of the USB cable to the USB port in your computer.

Step 3: Turn on the camera or phone.

How

Step 4: A dialog box may appear on the screen. If it does, select “Open folder to view files” or “Open Folder”. If the dialog does not appear, click the Windows “Start” menu, select “Computer” and then choose the drive labelled for your connected camera/phone (your may need to all confirm on your phone that you want the computer to access the files on your phone).

Step 5: The pictures are probably located in a particular photo folder on the camera or phone. Open that folder. Drag individual photos from the camera or phone folder to the folder on your computer. You can select all the photos by pressing “Ctrl-A” and you can then paste them into a pictures folder on your computer by pressing “Ctrl-V”
