robert_edelman1 Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 <p>On a November 4 post in this forum, it was mentioned that the latest version of DPP (v.3.9.2) has been available from the Canon Europe website. I have two questions. First, does anyone know why the US website does not have the update when it is available on the European website? Second, will there be any software conflicts if a user in the United States installs the newest version from the European website? I figure that there will not be any problems, but I thought that I would be cautious and ask before installing the update.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wgpinc Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 <p>I have it. I forget where I downloaded it from. Maybe I got it from the Europe site. Are you sure it isn't on the Canon USA site? Go out and look at their downloads. Don't believe what people tell you on the internet. Good luck!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert_edelman1 Posted November 13, 2010 Author Share Posted November 13, 2010 <p>I checked before I first posted this. Canon's USA website only has v.3.8.1 (unless I am missing the newer version). Canon Europe has v.3.9.2.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PuppyDigs Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 <p>I've been using DPP 3.9.2 on my Mac Pro (OS 10.6.4) for several weeks without any problems whatsoever. When you install, it asks for your geographic region. I always select North America although I live in Hawaii. I suppose you might get some sort of mismatch if your OS has been localized for a different geographic region than DPP.</p> Sometimes the light’s all shining on me.

robert_edelman1 Posted November 14, 2010 Author Share Posted November 14, 2010 <p>Thanks, Puppy. As you are somewhat of a guru on this forum, perhaps you could enlighten us as to why Canon Europe is ahead of Canon USA on its DPP software?</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PuppyDigs Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 <p>Perhaps they have an in house webmaster while Canon USA needs updates to clear legal counsel<em> </em>and generate disclaimers before bidding out to a freelance webmaster. Or maybe they're just slackers...</p> Sometimes the light’s all shining on me. Other times I can barely see. - Robert Hunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cabbiinc Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 <p>You'll also want to check the EU site for the other program updates that DPP will depend on. EOS Utility and the like. Still no USA release as of typing this for some reason. In retrospect the EU Canon site used to be behind on updates available for updates that were available in the US site. Maybe Canon just has one guy/team for all the worldwide sites and he/she/they are working on it. The US site also did just go through a major facelift complete with new menu trees.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
