There are a number of comments in the reviews about the lack of documentation, no argument there. If you read the reviews, there are a couple (including mine) that give pretty good detailed instructions. I found additional information doing a quick web search. Basically you need to connect to it with an ethernet cable, then configure the wireless settings, unplug the cable, reboot the camera and it should connect to your wireless network. If you provide more details about your issue I can provide a more detailed answer.

A "simple" Question:How do I go FULLl manual with my EOS XSi? I want to set the ISO, the shutter speed and the aperature.?I might even want to "Spot Meter" as well.

join the crowd.. My printer was delivered with a bad Wifi chip. I was told where to take it to be repaired by the Canon people. Low and behold that wasn't the only problem. They said it had another broken chip and for me to return the printer. I never got to print one single paper. The whole process took over two months. Needless to say I will never buy a Canon product. Sorry you are having a problem too............

I tried this also ended up throwing it away as a waste of time. I have a Canon EOS Rebel XT and I belong to a group of collectors that has been meeting once a year for the last 30 years. I take a group photo of up to 70 people. It is just the last 10 years that I have been able to be in the photo also.FOR WHAT I USE: Go on the internet and type in SATECHI WR-C100 WIRELESS REMOTE CONTROL when the screen loads this is the one I use. It's a little spendy but it works great. I can be in the photo and and take the picture, even thou I am 60 feet away.

If you mean to set up the details of how the camera works? YES. Im a little technical and this camera is not a simple plug and play. I have yet to figure out how to get it to work on wi-fi so I have it plugged into ethernet and still have some kinks to work out. The quality of the day/night viewing is amazing and it basically works as a IP Camera. I think im going to buy some different software as I cant seem to get the record to work well.

I was having problems connecting as well. My problem.... I had the password in all caps instead of all lowercase lol as soon as I fixed that it connected right away. I'm inlove with the printer now!

It's about the app. Check with the instax app to see if you can download it. All you need is wifi and that app.

Thanks for the response. In the interim from posting and now I actually purchased a Canon as the gift, but I found a lot of solid information about photo formats and more at CNet.

Yea, I can't get mine to work either. Idiotic Vista, or idiotic Canon? take your pick, I suppose. Canon's software is pretty cruddy to begin with. oh! wait...wait... THERE! Got it to work. I simply re-ran the installer EXE downloaded from the Canon web site, but this time I right-clicked on the EXE file and selected "Run as Administrator...". Yes, I recall now, on Vista, even if you ARE the Administrator, you really aren't, unless you select this option for running your install scripts and so forth. Goofy, but now it's working just like it did on XP before I migrated. (The migration involved a new machine etc).

Sean, why do you say it's a no brainer if you don't need wifi???? I would think most people need wifi. I have the brown one and use the wifi all the time.

Are you trying to connect via WiFi? If so, unplug printer for a couple minutes. Plug it back in and go to the WiFi setup and enter the password for your network. If no workie, call Canon support..

Actually what Im trying to figure out is how to actually connect to that wifi connection. HOw do I hook up to it with my PC? Or do I actually need something to plug into my laptop that picks up the signal. Im not sure if the tiny laptop I have will automatically pick up a wifi signal if there is one in the area, or If I have to buy some kind of device to hook up to it. And if I need a device, I wouldnt even begin to know what Im looking for.

I use mine everywhere. I take to the store, I put an app for shopping. I take it to doctors. I take pic all the time on it. The only thing is if I am wanting to post a pic to say facebook, you have to have WIFI or connect it to a computer. I have my house set for WIFI so I am good. A lot of places now have WIFI hotspots so you should be good.

I just realized that a memory card doesn't come with this camera. What a bummer. My camera is on its way to me and I have to go out and buy a memory card before I can use it??? This has never happened before, and I've had four or five previous digital cameras. Is Canon getting stingy?

I would advise you to return it. I went through the same thing. What I learned from an IT friend....I live in a townhouse complex, the wifi could not distinguish my wifi code due to so many other wifi subscribers near by. I do think he was correct in his evaluation. I gave the printer to my sibling. He lives in a home. No problem receiving a connection to his wifi subscriber. This meant no more off line nonsense. I hope that helps.
