P: Tethering from Canon cameras doesn't work on macOS Catalina 10.15.2

They issue updates without checking that everything works correctly
This is not professionnal

Please see Victoria and Sunil's comments above. 

hi guys
i noticed the issue this morning during a pro shooting.
I did an other tethered capture last december when I already had my new macbook pro with Catalina 10.15.2 and it worked
So I reach the conclusion that it is probably an Adobe update installed this month.
This is unacceptable.
Does the people from Adobe know that we do professionnal activity with they products ?

so is there a solution now or should we switch all to capture one !!??!!Sorry guys...this is a mess !!

Using MAC Pro and Catalina 10.15.2 In Lightroom Classic 9.1 when I go to Tethered Capture the program can not find my camera Cannon D5 Mark III.

I had several large portrait jobs in the last two weeks and tethered the pictures onto the Mac without any problems. I did not tether directly to LR but via EOS utlilty and 'automatic import'.

Procedure: (equipment and software used)
1. connect camera (5D4) via WiFi to MacBookPro (16" - late 2019 - MacOS 10.15.2)
2. start EOS utility and configure it to save in a folder 'to_import'
3. set up 'automatic import' in Lightroom Classic (9.1) to import from this folder
4. ready

When the camera goes to sleep, the connection is terminated as it is when I change the camera battery. The connection is unrecoverable.
However, I was able to restore the connection reliably when I completely reestablished the WiFi connection from the camera. With a little practice, this can be done in half a minute.

I hope this helps somebody.

Thanks for bringing a solution to a problem. Looks interesting. I'll give it a try 😉

Thaks for the comments. I'll take it for "months" ;-(

The tethering with LR with my macbook is catastrophic. And it has Mojave, not Catalina. Recently I tried to tether with may desktop machine, which has High Sierra on, and wow, there is now problem at all!! I remembered, that previously I didn't have any problem with my macbook either, but since upgraded to Mojave, issues just started.
So, it's not just Catalina, Mojave also very problematic, when LR tethering is on. It seems, that the problem is more complicated... Canon, Adobe, Apple...:-D
