Need help with live ingest
« on: March 27, 2011, 01:16:38 PM »
Hi
I'm using PM 4.6.3 on a Macbookpro running OSX 10.6.6
I connect my Canon to the mac using USB and EOS utility. I created a folder EOS on the desktop. When shooting, photos go to this folder.
I tried Live Ingest, selected eos folder as the source folder and "test" as a destination folder.
When I press start, PM says : " Unable to start ingest: Source path '/Users/chris/Desktop/eos/' cannot be found. "
Live Ingest sees all the folders I create and they appear in the box but it doesn't start..

Any idea ?
Thanks
C.

Does the path actually exist at the time of the Live Ingest?  Is it visible in the Finder?

Yes no prob live ingest sees the path, visible in the finder...

Edit : I tried with last version of PM 4.6.6 and same problem..I also tried with card reader without succes.. (normal ingest works fine)


New edit : I deleted prefs, restart and it works now....
