My Eos utility wont work on El Capitan Macbook pro, Canon t5, CD wont install software

woodrm2 — Sun, 15 May 2016 20:01:53 GMT

I got my Canon t5 January 2016, I recently found out it includes Eos Utility. I have the physical CDs.

Today I inserted the solution disk to install the software, but when I clicked "Set up" nothing happens... it'll open something on my dock and then dissapear. It just won't install or anything at all!

Please help!

I am running Mac OS El Capitan!

Your disks are probably too outdated for El Capitan. You can get the latest applicable software from Canon's website. I just went there and downloaded DPP 4.30 this afternoon and I have El Capitan on my Macbook Pro. Once download is complete you can double click on it in your Download sidebar on your Mac.

I've tried this a few times, but everytime i go to open it, I click it, and nothing ever pops up. It shifts my dock on the bottom of my mac like something is going to open, and then nothing ever opens!

Is it possible that you're inadvertently telling the program to look for an actual CD, rather than an installation file or folder? The noise from the dock suggests that it's trying to query an actual (or hypothetical) CD reader.

That may be the problem! when I click the updater, it asks to look for a CD, but says none is found!
