Are you looking for a way to import photos from your Canon camera to your Mac? With the right set of instructions, it’s not as difficult as you might think. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to get your Canon photos onto your Mac.
First, open the Preview app on your Mac and choose File > Import from [camera name]. This works even if more than one camera is connected to your Mac. You’ll be presented with thumbnail images of all the photos on your camera.
Next, make sure the USB or USB-C cable is securely connected to both the camera and computer. If not, try plugging it into another USB port on the computer. Then check that the camera is turned on and set to the correct mode for importing photos (check the instructions provided with the camera).
Once everything is connected properly, click Select and Download in Preview. This will open up a viewing window where you can select which images you want to transfer by checking off each individual box. When ready, click Download and then set the destination for where you want them saved before clicking OK.
Now all that’s left is to wait while they transfer over to your Mac! Depending on how many images you’ve chosen and their size, this could take anywhere from a few seconds to several minutes. Once they’re finished transferring, you can view them in any folder you chose as their destination earlier in this process.
And that’s all there is to it! With just a few steps, getting your Canon photos onto your Mac doesn’t have to be complicated or time-consuming anymore.

Transferring Photos from Canon Camera to Macbook Using WiFi
To transfer photos from your Canon camera to your MacBook using Wi-Fi, you will need to set up a direct connection between the two devices.
First, make sure that both devices are powered on and that they are in the range of each other. On the Canon camera, go to the [Wireless communication settings] menu and select [Wi-Fi settings]. From there, select [Auto send images to computer] and choose the [Image sending options]. Specify the transfer conditions and make sure that the camera is turned off.
On the MacBook, open System Preferences, then click on Network. Look for your Canon camera in the list of available networks and select it. It may prompt you for a password – if so, enter it. After connecting, open Image Capture or iPhoto (or other photo management software) on your Macbook and look for your Canon camera in the list of connected devices. Select it and it should allow you to access all of its content. You can then drag and drop photos from the camera onto your Macbook.
Troubleshooting Issues with Importing Photos to a Computer
It is possible that your computer is not able to import photos because it is not connected to the same Wi-Fi network as the device containing the photos. Check the settings on both devices, making sure that each is logged into the same network. Additionally, make sure you have given your computer permission to access and edit photos from your device. If either of these two conditions is not met, your PC won’t be able to browse or import your photos.
