If you are a proud new owner of Canon’s popular entry-level DSLR, the Digital Rebel, you may be confused as to why the camera does not appear among your drives or on your desktop when it’s connected to your computer via USB cable. Your camera is not defective, nor is there anything wrong with your computer. Canon has disabled this feature of the camera.

I just got the Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi. It’s a great camera, but I can’t figure out how to download the photos onto my computer. When I hook the camera up to my computer, nothing happens, and I can’t see it listed in “My Computer”.
It’s not the case that you can’t import photos directly from your Digital Rebel to your computer. You just need to know the proper way to accomplish this task. There are two methods for getting your photos from your new Canon DSLR:
- Use a card reader.
- Use the Canon EOS Utility.

Import Photos with a Card Reader
A compact flash card reader is a device that attaches to your computer, and features a slot that accepts your camera’s memory card. Remove the memory card from your digital camera, insert it into the card reader, then plug the card reader into your computer (usually via USB). The card reader should appear either on your desktop or among your drives. From this point, you can copy the digital photos from the card, to a folder on your computer.
A compact flash card reader is usually the choice of most photographers, since it doesn’t require you to waste battery life while importing photos.

Import Photos with the Canon EOS Utility
Your Digital Rebel came with a CD containing Canon’s EOS Utility software. The EOS Utility allows you to control your Digital Rebel through your computer, as well as download photos from it’s memory card. Locate the aforementioned CD, install the Canon EOS Utility, connect & turn on your camera, and start the EOS utility.
If you simply want to download every photo on the camera, press the button labeled “Starts to download images”. If you want only a few selected photos, press the button labeled “Lets you select and download images”. The final step before the download begins will be for you to select a target folder on your computer.
Import photos from your Canon EOS Rebel Digital camera into your Mac's iPhoto application using one of three methods.
Import using the EOS Rebel Digital camera and a cable
You can import photos using a USB cable that connects your camera and your Mac. This cable is usually included with the camera, but if you've lost it, you can search for the specific model on the Canon website and buy it, buy it from another website, or from an electronics store.
● Plug the USB cable into your camera's port and plug the other end of the cable into your Mac's USB port. Turn on your camera.
● Launch the iPhoto application on your Mac, click the 'File' button, and then click 'Import to Library.
● Select the Canon Rebel camera under 'Devices', then select all the photos from your camera that you want to import into iPhoto. Note that you can press and hold the 'Command' button to select multiple photos at once.

● Click the 'Import' button to start importing those images.

Importing using the SD card
Import photos directly from your SD card if you don't have the cable for your Rebel camera and if your Mac computer has an SD port. If your Mac doesn't have that port, buy an SD card reader and plug the included USB into your Mac's USB port.
● Plug the SD card into the SD card reader or the SD card port on your Mac.
● Launch the iPhoto application, and then click 'File' and 'Import to Library.
● Select your Canon Rebel SD card under 'Devices,' then select all the photos on the SD card you want to import into iPhoto. Press and hold the 'Command' button to select multiple photos.
● Click the 'Import' button.
