Referring to my previous post….

OK, I don’t know why it matters, but upgrading to 1.3 fixed the problem.

Thanks,

I have a strange situation that I’m hoping someone can shed some light on.

—
Macbook Pro (Late 2008 – intel)- DSLR Server 1.1 – OS X 10.6.2 8gb
Two cameras (Canon 30D & Nikon D700) Everything works perfectly. – YAY!
—
Macbook (Early 2007 – intel) – DSLR Server 1.1 – OS X 10.6.2 8gb
Canon 30D works perfectly – YAY!
Nikon D700 doesn’t get recognized by the DSLR server software, just simply says: (Camera: No Camera Detected) as if the camera is unpluged- Boo!!!
—

The Nikon D700 works in iPhoto, get’s recognized in System Profiler and like I said above, works fine on the Macbook Pro.

Here’s what I tried:

I updated the Nikon Firmware to the latest (again, doubt it that, works on MBP)

I reinstalled OS X 10.6.2 Combo Update

I made a new user account and tried it under that.

Swapped out USB cable, Tried both USB ports, camera battery, with or without a CF card, computer on power cord and battery. (some silly and desperate, I know…)

Made sure there were no other camera control operations running in Activity Monitor, but then I doubt it as we’ve really only used iPhoto, Lightroom and at one point Aperture on this machine.

Can anyone think of anything else I can try or should I put in a new hard drive and really start from scratch? Ugh.

Here is a list of the processing running on the machine:

kernel_task
mds
WindowServer
kextd
Finder
Dock
Activity Monitor
SystemUIServer
coreservicesd
loginwindow
DirectoryService
LogMeIn

Thanks,
Brad

I apologize for the LONG post and if this isn’t the proper place to find an answer to this…

Hi there. I just purchased your lite version and love it. I will be getting the pro as well very soon. I was wondering if there is any way to have the images save to your iPod Touch as well as your computer. Or how about just your iPod Touch?

@Juerg: I had the same problem. Turned out that he folder the photos are being saved to contained an ‘ä’ – so make sure there’s no other characters than a-z in the folder name!

I’d buy it if you decide to support the Sony Alpha series. It’s the perfect app for me. Normally I’d be shooting with a Nikon but a family member gave me a new A380 and I’m loving it so far.

Good luck on your product.. Very Cool!

I don’t get it. You can already control your camera through your laptop. Why add another layer of tethering? Now if you could replace the laptop with the iPhone to shoot pics that would be remote shooting. Anyone?

Saw the posts about using the eyefi SD wifi cards (using a CF adapter). I didn’t think Canon camera firmware allowed control of the camera through the CF port. If so, great idea! If not, then can the iPhone / iPod Touch USB port be configured as HOST mode? Then two iPhones (iPod Touches) could be used with one physically connected to the camera (USB adapter required) running the “receive” app while the hand held iPhone (iPod Touch) runs control app. A second iPod Touch at $230 would make a more portable set-up for some. This all assumes HOST mode supported which I don’t think any iPod supports, so maybe the next generation…..

I plan to get this app as soon as I get home today!

I can’t wait for the Nikon. I take pictures at small concert venues and this will allow me to put the camera backstage and shoot through the musicians towards the audience.

My only concern: do I need a phone signal? I have wifi in the computer, but this venue is out in the woods. No phone, no internet.
