I have been considering running Linux in virtual box if linux can mount the camera so that I have write rights to it.Canon have released their promised firmware update for the EOS 7D. What other alternatives is there except buying an external card reader? It stayed complete nothing for a while and then I gave up. A dialog flashed past me saying it was unpackaging the files, then nothing. It came as a zipped dmg file with an app file on it (talk about over packaging.) Anyhow, I unzipped, mounted the dmg file and started the app. Okey fine I thought and downloaded the latest update version. Guess what? The program does not run under OS X 10.7.

Grabbed my CD that came with the camera and installed the EOS utility on it. I guess we have to wait for Canon to fix this right? Oh well, I googled a bit and seems I am not the only one with this problem. The 'Camera settings / Remote shooting' alternative is greyed out. However, when I plug in my camera the EOS utility doesn't seem to recognize my camera. I have no separate card reader so I planned to do it from the EOS utility, so I downloaded the latest version of it. I am running Windows 8 on my main machine and thought I would upgrade to the new firmware for my Canon EOS 7D.
