Import photos from a camera or phone using Photos on Mac. You can connect a camera, iPhone, iPad, or other mobile device to your Mac and import your photos into the Photos app. You can also import photos from a camera’s memory card. See Import photos from storage devices and DVDs using Photos.

1. This is a brand new camera, for me, I know it came out in 2012. So no damaged cable and I know I can download EOS Utility from canon, I just dont want to. Anyway, I just took ONE photo, turned off camera, connected it by USB to my Mac, turned camera back on and in seconds the image popped up in the Photos App on the Mac.
2. If you wish to edit images using Digital Photo Professional or ZoomBrowser EX/ImageBrowser, refer to the Software Instruction Manual supplied with your camera. Downloading selected images With EOS Utility, you can select the images you want from the images shot and download them to your computer.

In the Photo Downloader window, choose Refresh from the Get Photos From drop-down. (Android devices) When connecting an Android mobile device to a Mac or Windows machine, if you see a USB For alert on your device, unlock your device and choose any one of the available USB connection modes — MTP, PTP, USB mass transfer.

Before you can make any edits to your pictures, you first need to get them from your camera or phone to your computer. This can be done in a few simple steps.

You can use the photo software program that came with your digital camera. In this guide, I’ve used the Windows 10 built-in Photos App which follow a very similar process.

You’ll need:

• a computer
• a digital camera
• a memory card from your camera (see right) to insert in your computer’s memory card slot. If your computer doesn’t have a memory card slot, you’ll need an external hard drive or memory card reader. Alternatively, if you have an appropriate USB cable, you may be able to connect your camera or phone directly to your computer.

Follow these step-by-step instructions to download pictures from camera or mobile phone to computer using the Windows Photos App

Step 1: Connect the digital camera or mobile phone to your computer with a USB cable that can transfer files.

Step 2: Turn your digital camera or mobile phone on and unlock it. Your PC can’t find the device if the device is locked.

Step 3: On your PC, select the “ Start” button and then select Photos to open the Photos app.

Step 4: Select Import > From a USB device, then follow the instructions. You can pick the items you want to import and select where to save them. Allow a few moments for detection and transfer.

Alternative method: You don’t always need to use photo software to transfer photos from your camera. You can move photos from your camera as if you are moving them from an external hard drive or flash drive. Here is how:

Step 1: Connect one end of the USB cable to the port in your camera.

Step 2: Connect one the other end of the USB cable to the USB port in your computer.

Step 3: Turn on the camera or phone.

Step 4: A dialog box may appear on the screen. If it does, select “Open folder to view files” or “Open Folder”. If the dialog does not appear, click the Windows “Start” menu, select “Computer” and then choose the drive labelled for your connected camera/phone (your may need to all confirm on your phone that you want the computer to access the files on your phone).

Step 5: The pictures are probably located in a particular photo folder on the camera or phone. Open that folder. Drag individual photos from the camera or phone folder to the folder on your computer. You can select all the photos by pressing “Ctrl-A” and you can then paste them into a pictures folder on your computer by pressing “Ctrl-V”
