11. Verify or change the storage location and file-naming settings for your pictures.

The top half of the dialog box indicates where the program wants to store your downloaded pictures. By default, pictures are stored in the Pictures or My Pictures folder in Windows (depending on the version of Windows you use) and in the Pictures folder on a Mac. A new folder is created for each batch of files you download, and the download date is used as the folder name. To change these details, click the Destination Folder button.

Normally, the program retains the original filenames when downloading. But if you want to assign files different names, click the File Name button. (For example, if all the pictures are from Ted’s birthday party, you might tell the program to name the files Ted_001, Ted_002, and so on.)

12. Click OK to begin the download.

A progress window appears, showing you the status of the download. You also may see a preview window showing you a quick look at each picture as it’s downloaded.

When the download is complete and the memory-card access light on the back of the camera turns off, turn off the camera. You can then disconnect the camera from the computer. The EOS Utility window should close automatically after the program notices the disappearance of the camera.

Now for the promised details about the automatic downloading setting and a couple of other fine points about direct camera-to-computer file transfer:

• Using the automatic download option: If you don’t want to take the time to preview photos before downloading them, follow Steps 1–7 as just outlined. Then choose Start Automatic Download. (It’s the top option, appearing in yellow type in the figure.) By default, the program downloads only images you haven’t already transferred to the computer. But if you click the Settings button to the right of the Start Automatic Download option, you can specify that you instead want to download all images, all protected images that haven’t already been downloaded, or images to which you assigned a print order setting via the Print Order option on Playback Menu 1.

The program uses the default file destination and file-naming settings I described in the steps. To access those settings so that you can change them, click the Preferences button at the bottom of the EOS Utility 3 dialog box and then click the Destination Folder tab.

• Auto-launching Digital Photo Professional 4: By default, Digital Photo Professional 4 opens after the download is finished so that you can view, edit, and organize your files. To stop that program from launching automatically, connect the camera to the computer and click the Preferences button at the bottom of the first EOS Utility 3 window that. Click the Linked Software tab and select None from the drop-down list labeled Software to Link. Or click the Register button to choose another photo program that you want to open automatically after picture download completes.
• Setting other download preferences: You can adjust many other aspects of the download, including whether images are displayed one by one during the download, via the Preferences dialog box. Again, you must connect your camera to the computer to adjust these settings. (Turn off the Quick Preview option on the Basic Settings tab if you don’t want to see the image-by-image previews during downloading.)

How to download from a card reader

Canon’s EOS Utility 3 doesn’t offer an automated tool that works for downloads from card readers. But you can use Digital Photo Professional 4 to view and transfer your photos the “old-fashioned” way, which is to select the files you want to download and then drag and drop them to an existing folder on your computer.

When you launch the program, you should see the card reader as just another drive in the list of drives that appears on the left side of the program window. (If you don’t see the folder list, labeled here, open the View menu, choose Open/Close Pane, and select left.) The card reader may display the name EOS_DIGITAL, as in the figure.

After locating the card drive, you need to crack open its main folder, named DCIM. Inside that folder, you see subfolders containing your images; the subfolder names may be 100Canon, 101Canon, and so on. (Ignore the folder named EOSMISC.) Double-click the folder that contains the images you want to download.

You then see thumbnails to the right of the folder list, as shown in the figure. Select the images that you want to download as follows:

• Select a single file: Click its thumbnail to select it.
• Select multiple files: Click one thumbnail and then hold down the Ctrl key (Windows) or Command key (Mac) as you click additional files. You also can click the first file in a group and then Shift-click on the last file to select the first and last images and all the ones in between.
• Select all files: Click in the thumbnail pane and then press the Control key and the A key if you use a Windows-based computer. Press the Command key and the A key on a Mac. (You may see such keyboard shortcuts presented like so: Ctrl+A or Command+A.)

Next, just drag the selected files to the folder where you want to store them, as illustrated in the figure.

Although it’s not visible in the figure, you should see a little plus sign next to your cursor when you drag. The plus sign indicates that you’re placing a copy of the picture files on the computer; your originals remain on the card.

Of course, if you already have a program you like to use for picture downloads, you’re free to stick with it. You can even use the Windows and Mac file-management programs — Windows Explorer and Mac Finder — to drag and drop files if you prefer. You can still use Digital Photo Professional 4 to edit your files after you download them.
