Canon EOS Utility software DVD or CD

I wonder if anyone can lead me to a source for the above mentioned software.

I work at a non profit and someone donated a Canon T1i that we are attempting to connect to a laptop. However when connecting the camera the message appears that we need to install the EOS Utility using the CD that came with the camera (which of course we don't have) - and I cannot find that on the Canon site. Have they changed it to something else?

TIA

Send them to their local Canon.com website. The support section for the specific camera model will have the software for download, with ZERO need for physical media. Some software will require a valid EOS serial number, but the software is free and any valid EOS serial number will work, it doesn't even have to be for the camera model being 'supported' via the download.

As an older model, possible the T1i has been removed. Still no problem, just pick the oldest EOS Rebel model available and find the software in the downloads available for that model.

Thanks for all your advice here and great help. I appreciate it a lot! I have a T1i and a T8i…and a T6. Walt

If you are on a Windows computer go to the W7 page of the Canon support site and download a digital version of the CD. If you are on a Mac you are probably out of luck because if you even had the CD the software probably wouldn't be compatible with later macOS versions. But, on the Mac, you could use Apple Image Capture to connect.

Thank you to all - we will download the package and see if the camera serial number does the trick

By the way, you may be asked for the camera's serial number.

When going to the T1i support page, you would have to hit "load more" until you reach the bottom to find EOS Utility
