EOS Utility CD needed to move photos off of EOS Rebel T2i

[trav012]

I have an old Rebel T2i that has photos on the camera still.  I tried to download "EOS Utility 2.14.20a Updater for Windows" however it states I need the CD.  For one, I no longer have the software CD and for 2 - laptops don't even have that functionality any longer.  Please help!  I need to get these pictures off my camera.  Any advise?

travo12,

Do you have a card reader, or an SD card port on your laptop?

You could take the card out and plug into one of those and copy the files directly, bypassing the need for the EOS Utility altogether.

You can remove the card from the camera and use a card reader.

If you want EOS Utility for other reasons go here:

Canon Support for EOS-1D X Mark III | Canon U.S.A., Inc.

and download EOSU 3.13.30

If you have a Mac just connect camera and use Apple Image Capture.

You can also connect camera to computer with a USB A-to-Mini B cable. (NOT micro-B). 

It will show up in Windows' File Explorer as a drive. Open it, open the DCIM folder, and move the image files to the computer.
