Troubleshooting

If DPP is not operating correctly, see the items below.

  1. Installation could not be completed correctly

    • Select an administrator-level privilege ([Computer administrator], [Administrator], etc.) as a user setting. You cannot install the software if a user setting other than an administrator-level privilege is selected. For detailed information on selecting an administrator-level privilege, refer to your computer User's Manual.

  1. DPP does not work

    • DPP does not operate correctly on a computer if its system requirements are not met. Use DPP on a computer with compatible system requirements.

    • Even if your computer has the RAM capacity (memory) described in the system requirements, if other applications are running at the same time as DPP, you may not have sufficient RAM (memory). Exit any applications other than DPP.


  1. The card reader does not detect the SD card

    • Depending on the card reader and computer OS used, SDXC cards might not be correctly detected. In such a case, connect your camera and computer with the provided interface cable, and transfer the images to your computer using EOS Utility (provided software).


  1. Images do not display properly


  1. An image could not be adjusted

    • The JPEG and TIFF images cannot be adjusted using the image adjustment function of the [RAW] tool palette. Adjust these images with the [RGB] tool palette.

    • PowerShot Pro1 RAW images cannot be adjusted with the image adjustment function of the [RAW] tool palette. Adjust these images with the [RGB] tool palette.


  1. A recipe could not be pasted (applied) to another image


  1. Color appears weak in the image when viewed with other software

    • A RAW image which has a color space other than sRGB set (Setting Work Color Space, Color Management) and is then converted and saved as a JPEG or TIFF image will appear weak in color when viewed in software that is only compatible with sRGB color space. In this case, set the RAW image color space to sRGB, convert again to a JPEG or TIFF image and save, and then view this image.


  1. The colors of the image displayed on screen and the colors of the printed image do not match


  1. Printing a large number of images in batches cannot be performed

    • If a large number of images are printed in batches, printing may stop in the middle or the images may not be printed. Reduce the number of images to print or increase the memory on your computer.


  1. A file remains in the folder after images are deleted

    • Delete [CRW_YYYY.THM] (camera index display image) if it remains in the folder from which images have been deleted.
      * Numbers are entered for [YYYY] in the file name.


  1. The image information does not display

    • A JPEG image set to Adobe RGB and shot with some cameras may not display image information.
