Cannot import images to my macbook air from EOS T6i

[MValentin]

Though I have downloaded many images to the same macbook air, fromt the same Canon EOS T6i, I can no longer get the camera to be seen by the computer.  No images will import.  I, of course, do not have the canon software on my mac, because there is no disk slot.  The Canon web site says that I do not need software with OS El Capitan. Canon does not offer web downloads of basic camera software.  I have tried everything that I know to try.  Any ideas?

Hi, I have a Macbook Air, with Yosemite. I just got my Rebel T6 yesterday and was able to upload pictures just fine. Today, the computer is not recognising the camera, I went to Applications ---> USB ---> and it is not listed. 

As you can see from the screenshot I have the software downloaded and on my doc, it just doesn't find the camera when connected through USB, and yes, I am making sure I turn the camera on after it is plugged in to the Mac. It also doesn't show up in Applications ---> Image Capture. Nothing does.  

I should also add it is a Canon USB, I just bought it brand new with all of the extras included. Please Help!

Wifi is turned off on the camera?

That was it! Thanks so much, I set a Wifi nickname yesterday and guess I left in enabled

Glad I could help, and also that it was a simple fix.
