Canon Digital Rebel Xti Firmware 1.1.1 For Mac
This document describes the Installation procedure for `400plus ; if you need information on using the hack, please read the User Guide.
The cable connects to your camera and to the USB port on your PC or MAC Computer. Comes standard with the EOS 1Ds Mark III, 1D Mark IV, 1D Mark III, 1Ds Mark II, 1D Mark II N, 1D Mark II, 5D Mark II, 7D, 5D, 50D, 40D, 30D, 20D, 10D, Digital Rebel XTi, Digital Rebel XT and Digital Rebel. Please see Compatibility tab for compatible models.
Before you begin
In order to install 400plus you are definitively going to need a CF card reader; it is simply not possible to install 400plus through a USB cord attached to your camera.
Open icontainer for mac. Container 🔴 Can't open a.icontainer file?When you double-click a file to open it, Windows examines the filename extension. If Windows recognizes the filename extension, it opens the file in the program that is associated with that filename extension. When Windows does not recognize a filename extension, you receive the following message:Windows cannot open this file: example.icontainer To open this file, Windows needs to know what program you want to use to open it.If you don't know how to set the.icontainer file association, check the.
Preparing the camera
The following steps prepare your camera to execute 400plus each time it starts up; this procedure must be done only once per camera:
- Use a fully charged battery.
- Your camera must be running version 1.1.1 of Canon's official firmware; if yours has an older version, follow the update instructions at Canon Firmware Update.
- Download the '400plus-testfir-1.bin.zip' from the latest release at the 400plus releases page, unpack it and copy the
testfir.firfile into the root folder of your CF card, using the card reader. - Insert the CF into the camera and run the firmware update procedure using
testfir.fir; the screen will go blank. Wait at least 2 minutes, then turn it off, and finally take battery out and back in.
Preparing each card
The following steps prepare a card to contain 400plus and be recognized by the camera; this procedure must be done once per card:
- First step is to format the CF card, preferably using the camera, but you can format it on the PC, too.
- Now the card must be made bootable, so the camera recognizes it; you need CF card reader and a Windows, Linux, or Mac computer. On a Mac, you can use the native method, or use Windows under Bootcamp/VMware Fusion, or use the Linux method instead.
Make card bootable
Windows XP
Use EOScard. You need to check both EOS_DEVELOP and BOOTDISK, and filesystem must be FAT (for cards smaller than 4GB) or FAT32 (for cards 4GB or larger); do not select any ML or CHDK at all.
Sometimes, EOScard will try to download and install some files from Magic Lantern, and leave the card unprepared if that fails; in this case, try to copy the files for 400plus to the card first (see 'Install 400plus into card below'), and then make it bootable using this procedure.
Windows 7 / 8 / 10
EOSCard
Try first the method described above for Windows XP; some users report that it just works for them. If you have problems, try right clicking the EOSCard.exe and click Compatibility tab, then check 'Run this program as administrator'. Free manycam for mac.
CardTricks
If that fails, you can also try using CardTricks:
- Mark CF boot sector
- Click Make Bootable
Virtual Machine
Some Windows 7 users reported that no method was working for them, however; in that case, install VirtualBox with a Linux LiveCD or WinXP running in it, and then use the appropriate method inside the VM (after attaching the card reader to the VM).
Mac
Use zeno's MacBoot automated tool (select 'Make DSLR Bootable').
Linux
Use the direct method (below) or use the method and files described here (use the second version).
Direct method
Use this method for Linux; Mac, and Windows can also use this method, with cygwin or dd.
- Find the device corresponding to your CF card (this command produces a list of devices, to see where your CF card is; easy way to find it is to match the size):
- Linux:
sudo fdisk -l - Mac (unmount the card from Disk Utility before):
diskutil list
- Linux:
- FAT12 / FAT16 (CF cards up to 2GB) (replace sdX1 with the name of the device corresponding to the first partition of your CF device):
- FAT32 (CF cards 4GB or larger) (replace sdX1 with the name of the device corresponding to the first partition of your CF device):
Install 400plus into card
- Download the latest official release, extract it, and copy the
AUTOEXEC.BINfile to the root folder of the CF card. - Create a new
400PLUSfolder on the card's root. - If you want support for additional (non-English) languages, also copy the
LANGUAGES.INIfile to the400PLUSfolder. - Insert the CF card back into the camera.. and you are done!
Testing 400plus
If the blue LED of your camera briefly lights up when the camera is turned on, the hack has been successfully loaded.
Updating 400plus
To update from a previous version of 400plus, just overwrite the AUTOEXEC.BIN and LANGUAGES.INI files in all your cards.
Removing 400plus
Permanently remove 400plus
The first step of the installation procedure cannot be undone (at least for now), and the camera will always try to execute 400plusif it is in the CF card; thus, formatting all your cards will remove 400plus for all practical purposes.
Temporarily disable 400plus
Power Off the camera, then press and hold the TRASH button. While holding the button, power on the camera, it should boot without 400plus now.
