Hello,
I am using a Canon 77D. Yesterday, I bought a Canon 50 mm f/1.8 STM. But when I try to change the aperture it is giving me the message "cannot adjust aperture, No lens attached." I have no idea why this is happening. I have a canon EFS 55-250 mm lens, with which I can change the aperture and everything works fine. Please help. Thank you.

From personal experience, the mount can be a tiny bit tight when that lens is new. Are you sure it's all the way locked into place? Check out this KnowledgeBase Article for instructions: https://canon.us/45zTmqf

My 80D is my only camera with the lens retract feature. I also own the EF-S 24mm f/2.8 STM, EF 40mm f/2.8 STM, and EF 50mm f/1.8 STM. None of them cause an error if I remove the lens while the camera is on.
Try using your 5D Mk IV with another STM lens, or try your EF 50mm f/1.8 STM on another camera with the lens retract feature. The error message should not happen just because you remove the lens with the power on.
Can you show us a screenshot of the error message?

I doesn't always happen. But it happens every once in awhile. But after updating the camera's firmware I haven't seen it. But when it does happen it's says "Lens communication error".
