Anyone else had this problem?

There isnt an online copy of EOS utility, so i dont know how to get it on my retina. Im using it in my studio setup, and im stumped with the new compooter.

Also, any way of putting the new 7D firmware onto CF without a card reader? (i.e. through USB into the camera? is there a way to manually put files on/off rather than image capture or the likes?)

+K for help

Download eos utility 2.7 here: http://www.hthring.info/downloads/eosutility_mac_2_7.zip

install.
blah.

download 2.10.4 update here: http://gdlp01.c-wss.com/gds/9/0200002119/01/eu211.4x-updater.dmg.zip

update. Done.

I'm running 10.7.4. Hopefully it works for 10.8 as well.

After you have EOS utility, yes.

DL link:
http://gdlp01.c-wss.com/gds/9/0400000629/01/eos7d-v200-mac.dmg

Go to page 4 of the pdf after it extracts and it'll walk you through it.

Canon says 10.8 version will be out in october but the 10.7 version should work. IDK. I've had issues where a non-canon usb hasn't recognized my camera but that's not a crash.
