Hello All,

 

New member here!

 

I got the same issue when I try to transfer an images from my EOS R to my iPhone 8+. I've tried it both ways...transfer it from the camera and  download it via the CameraConnect app.  both would give me an error  saying "Failed to save image".  App has Read & Write permission.  My iphone has 40G free space.  Any Idea what else could it be?

 

Tech support told me to disconnect the bluetooth connection and try to transfer again with the built -in WIFI and It did not help.  he said it got to be something with the phone setting which I agreed...but what is it?

 

Could it be IOS recent update?

 

Thanks,

B

I did what you suggested and it did not help. it is not a big deal. I can always take the memory card out and transfer them with my tablet.  It just a little inconveince.

Still an issue for me too!

It states ‘image failed to save’. Please help! I’ve deleted the app and reinstalled all the WiFi details on the camera.

Any help would be much appreciated!

The only thing that helped for me was to factory reset the iPhone and manually set it up again. When I tried to do the automatic restore process from backup, I was experiencing the same issue again. I figured it was some setting like the storage access that I declined while setting it up for the first time. And it doesn't get reset by just erasing the app. So factory reset and manual restore was the only solution for me.
