charles_clark1 Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 <p>I got LR2 for Christmas. I use a mac. I have been using Elements 6. I have also been using Canon's download software.<br> I want to be able to have LR2 as my default downloader when I put in a CF card into my card reader. I can't find out how to make this happen.<br> Please help.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
