Tethered connection - Pictures are not saved on the computer

Hi,

I'm using a R6 mark ii, with a tether tools cable and a MacBook Pro M1 (Sequoia 15.4.1).

My goal is to instantly see the photos I take on my MacBook. I tried with Capture One and Lightroom. Basically, my camera is correctly linked, as I can change settings (ISO, etc...), trigger and take care pictures from the Mac. However, the pictures I take are not saved in the destination folder.

I switched to EOS Utility 3, and the same thing happened: I can trigger pictures, change settings, and get the live view, but whenever I take a picture, it is not save in the folder, or anywhere.

EOS Utility is setup to save pictures in both the SD card and the Mac:

I already tried uninstalling/reinstalling the EOS Utility software (v 3.18.41). The camera firmware is up to date. I don't think there is any issue with my tether cable since I can remotely trigger the camera.

Maybe the Mac is restricting the pictures to be saved... Or the camera needs some additional/magical setup.

Desperation is starting to take over. Any advice helping to solve this mystery will be much appreciated!

Thanks in advance

Indeed, I found in a different post that Wifi and Bluetooth MUST be turned OFF when connecting the camera with USB.
