Install Canon camera software without the CD
Installing Canon software on an Apple Mac
Easiest way &#; A disk image file/installer
First of all, you might be able to find an images of the install disk.
This varies with Canon site around the world, so for example, in September , the Canon 6D page on their US site had two versions of the Disk. VA and VA.
Unfortunately the availability of the disks varies, so in Oct , they had gone, but selecting Mac OS X as my system let me download [EOS Digital Solution Disk Software A] and selecting OS X offered A
This has been set up for the following cameras (EU site as of Jan ) I&#;ve added the US &#;Rebel&#; names in parentheses
| EOS-1D X | EOS-1D Mark III | EOS-1Ds Mark III |
| EOS-1D C | EOS-1D Mark IV | |
| EOS 5D Mark II | EOS 5D Mark III | |
| EOS 7D | EOS 6D | |
| EOS 70D | EOS 60D | EOS 60Da |
| EOS 40D | EOS 50D | |
| EOS D (T5i) | EOS D (T4i) | EOS D (T3i) |
| EOS D (T2i) | EOS D (Ti) | EOS D (XSi) |
| EOS D (XS) | EOS D (T3) | |
| EOS M | ||
| EOS D (SL1) |
Look for software for your camera, although I should note that the disk image is the same for all cameras.
Looking on the www.cronistalascolonias.com.ar site (Oct ) the disk images had gone for newer versions of OS X, but I noticed that some software was showing up as full versions.
An example download link on the UK site is
www.cronistalascolonias.com.ar?DLtcmuri=tcm&page=2&type=download
You may need your camera serial number (I used a 5D3 serial found on the net [], since our EOS 1Ds3 serial number didn&#;t work).
If you don&#;t see a CD disk image &#; try setting your Operating system back to or for an older install disk image.
Remember that you only need install one bit of software from the CD for subsequent (newer) updates to install.
The Canon site in Australia also has some disk images. I downloaded a copy via this route (it needed the serial number above)
- Go to the Australian Canon support site www.cronistalascolonias.com.ar
- Select the 5D mark 3 in the list of products and click on the drivers link
- On the software listing page pick your Windows version
- Look for the &#;EOS Digital Solution Disk&#; &#; this is a disk image that will install Canon software
What if you need older software, such as for an EOS 5D or 1Ds ?
Very old Mac?
There is a DPP V1 file that you can download: www.cronistalascolonias.com.ar
This seems to be a full install of DPP &#; not an update.
The easiest approach is to download a disk image for a newer camera. It&#;s the same disk image
Once again you may need a serial number, since the s/n for our old EOS 1Ds was not recognised.
I&#;ve no disk image &#; just an updater
If for some reason, you&#;ve only got an updater and can&#;t get a disk image, then you need to look at using the updater and fooling it.
There is no Windows type registry to edit as such in Mac OS X.
There are a number of techniques for installing the software if you&#;ve no CD, but they do vary as Canon seems to change the install process every so often.
Some Canon sites do have a CD image to download but the links change, so you may need to do a bit of hunting around, or use the process below.
The original technique works with Mac software versions up to the DPP release in Aprll
- We hear that there may be problems with any method as of DPP , so until a workaround is found, it may be worth finding an earlier version of the software (look for an older camera)
- Remember that you only need have one bit of the Canon software installed, to use the updaters (more info).
EOS Utility software
The latest version ( &#; Oct 10th ) adds support for the EOS-M and says that it works with OSX )
It also changes the internal layout of the updater and needs the newer install technique)
Important note for OSX
Background: Mountain Lion&#;s Gatekeeper feature recognizes that the updater app has been altered by virtue of trashing the &#;www.cronistalascolonias.com.ar&#; file.
The system generates a dialog box that gives no choice but to trash the entire app, thus preventing installation.
To get around this, you have to disable Gatekeeper in your System Preferences.
- Open System Preferences / Security & Privacy / General and select &#;Allow applications downloaded from [Anywhere]&#;
- Follow the install process outlined below
- Open System Preferences / Security and Privacy / General and restore desired Security and Privacy settings
Thanks to Ben for sending this info and the screen shot below.
- I&#;m also hearing of other general install problems with and Canon software &#; please let me know if this works for you, or you still have problems?
The original Mac install workaround (pre DPP / April software)
The installer looks for previously installed Canon software (any of the Canon software will do, so you only need do this trick once).
For the latest DPP, you will need a slightly different approach which is covered further down the page. It&#;s probably best to read right through from here, and see what you need.
- Note: If you are installing on a very old Mac, there are some alternative approaches that worked on old software described in some of the earlier techniques below.
Do read through the process here fully to appreciate what is going on, before proceeding.
- If you are one of the few Mac owners with a case sensitive filesystem, then jump to the process at the end of this article
Installation procedure
You need to download the appropriate files from Canon &#; any file will need the minor alteration applying before you install, if there is no other Canon software in place.
This screenshot shows an example from the Canon US site [Canon]
Note that the files are compressed as .zip or .gz files &#; double clicking on the file will expand it to the appropriate disk image file (.dmg)
Clicking on the image file will mount it as a disk
You now need to copy the &#;UpdateInstaller&#; file to your disk (since you can&#;t modify the version in the disk image file &#; hence the little pencil with a line through it above)
Now eject the disk image
You need to modify the contents of the UpdateInstaller file, for it to run as an installer, without checking for old software first.
Right click on the UpdateInstaller. To see what&#;s inside it pick &#;Show package Contents&#;.
A new finder window opens up showing the contents
There is quite a lot inside most Apps (UpdateInstaller is a .app file, but the file extension isn&#;t normally shown)
- Note &#; this is the point that the process differs for DPP (and EOS Utility )
- If you are trying to install it, you&#;ll not find the www.cronistalascolonias.com.ar file mentioned below &#; go to the updated instructions below
You need to navigate to Contents/Resources and find the www.cronistalascolonias.com.ar file.
Right click on the www.cronistalascolonias.com.ar and &#;Show Package Contents&#; again.
A new window opens up.
In this new window navigate to Contents/Resources and locate a file called www.cronistalascolonias.com.ar
This is the file that stops you installing the software without a previous version installed.
Delete this file.
- Remember that you need to be working on a copy &#; you can&#;t delete it in the original disk image.
Close the two windows and doubleclick the UpdateInstaller app.
The software should now install normally!
- Note that once you have installed the software, you will be able to use future updaters and installers without going to all this trouble.

The Latest Mac DPP Install workaround [DPP Apr ]
Canon have changed the contents of the Mac installer, so that the original workaround above will no longer work with the latest updater for DPP
Note that not all software requires this updated technique &#; EOS Utility, for example, currently needs to be installed with the earlier method.
If you open a copy (as described below) of the new type of installer, you will see an &#;www.cronistalascolonias.com.ar&#; file &#; if there is no &#;www.cronistalascolonias.com.ar&#; file, then you need to use the earlier approach. This may change with new releases of the software.
In DPP , the &#;www.cronistalascolonias.com.ar&#; file to delete (in the original technique) no longer exists.
You can of course use an older version of the installer to install the latest version of DPP, Then you use a newer updater, which should work fine.
Such &#;OK&#; versions include DPP and , which can still be obtained from Canon sites. EOS Utility pre also works with the old approach.
Remember that you only need one of the bits of Canon software installed to use any of the updaters with no modifications.
I was able to download this from the Canon UK EOS 5D page. You need to go to the Downloads tab and select &#;Software&#; &#; there is the latest DPP listed, but if you scroll down there is an earlier version
For the Canon USA site I found that the EOS 5D drivers page had a copy of
However if you copy the installer from the disk image to your deskop, as in the process below, and look at its contents, there is a new file in this latest installer that you can delete to make an installable version of the updater.
- Don&#;t worry what all these files do &#; they just make the installer app work.
So the new procedure would be:
- Open the installer disk image &#; a window appears with the installer in it.
- Copy the installer app to your desktop
- Close the window that had opened and eject the disk image
- Right click on the installer (on your desktop) and select &#;show package contents&#;
A &#;Contents&#; window will open up showing the files inside the installer folder
- Open the &#;Resources&#; folder within this window and look for a file called www.cronistalascolonias.com.ar
- Delete this file (move to trash)
- Close the window, and double click on the installer icon. It will open normally and install DPP for you
- You should reboot your Mac
I&#;m told (thanks John) that the installer may auto-run after you reboot your Mac. Just click next a few times if this happens. The software is already installed, so nothing new will get installed at this time.
You now have a full version of DPP installed.
Future updates and any other Canon software should just install normally, without the need for any of these procedures.
If you deactivated gatekeeper under OSX for the install, then go back and reset it.
- If you&#;re not sure about doing this, I&#;ve tried to make the instructions as clear as possible &#; read through everything and get an idea for what it is you are doing. It&#;s quite a simple procedure, and only needs doing the once. As ever, if you can&#;t follow what&#;s here, let me know and I&#;ll try and make things clear.
Earlier installation tips
Aug A slightly different version of the Mac Install process was sent to us (thanks)
Copy EOS Updater to Desktop, Right-click, &#;Show Package Contents&#;.
Navigate to &#;/Contents/Resources/&#;, right-click on &#;www.cronistalascolonias.com.ar&#;,
&#;Show Package Contents&#;.
Navigate to &#;/Contents/Resources/&#;, delete &#;www.cronistalascolonias.com.ar&#;
Note that you must copy the installer from the image to your hard disk, since the file can&#;t be deleted in the disk image
Sept We&#;ve been sent an alternative way of turning a Mac updater to an installer
You can actually change the &#;update&#; to an &#;installer&#; without having to create fake apps.
Just copy it from the disk image your desktop, then control-click the app and &#;Show Package Contents&#;. Navigate to Contents > Resources and delete www.cronistalascolonias.com.ar
Now double click the modified application and it should install without any issues.
We were sent details (thanks) of how to modify an existing application on your disk, to fool the updater.
It involves a bit of renaming of the contents of a package but is of no danger if you pick an unused application (my disk is full of the things)
The example involves EOS utility &#; do read the comments at the end of the article.
www.cronistalascolonias.com.ar?p=16&cpage=1#comment
It&#;s been suggested to us that you can use Automator to create an empty &#;App&#; and call it the file name you want, such as &#;EOS File Viewer&#; and then edit the www.cronistalascolonias.com.ar file.
Case sensitive file system on Mac OSX?
If your Mac has a case sensitive filesystem, the the installer will fail. Note that these instructions only apply up V of DPP
Note &#; if you have a normal Mac, you do -not- have a case sensitive file system
Since none of our default OSX systems have this type of filesystem, I&#;d not seen it. However we&#;ve kindly been sent this suggested workaround [Thanks Kristian].
