In early January I bought a Canon 6D. While setting it up, i also successfully paired it through its wifi facility to my PC operating XP SP3. The pairing software operated without any hitches. Today when I reverte to attempting to download through wifi, the pc's EOS Utility's WFT pairing software screen remained blank, not recognizing the camera. The camera was switched to wifi enabled, and had recognized my wireless router. I uninstalled and re-installed the EOS Utility software from the disc.

No difference. If anyone has any suggestions what may be causing this hiccup, I would be delighted to hear from you. Problems with WiFi connectivity date back to the WFT-E4, so I'm not surprised that the 6D has issues too. As far as I know it does (or at least it can) work with XP, though whether Canon specifically designed it to or whether they went with Windows 7/8 I don't know. They don't seem to specify anywhere exactly what compatibility is guaranteed, though they'd be idiots not to support XP at this point since it still has around 35% of the Windows market. You might be able to tell their official policy by seeing what software is available for download from their website for the 6D with your OS specified as Windows XP rather than Windows 7. Any difference in what's available should reflect what Canon officially support.

What's supported and what works can be different. I believe that Windows 95 supported USB ports, though as I recall actually getting then to work on any consistent basis was a struggle. I seem to recall giving up on it myself. It's always possible the rat's nest of services etc. That Windows uses is causing a problem. Just because it works one day doesn't mean it will always work the next, especially if Windows has updated itself or some other program is requesting some Windows service that interferes.

I've heard that disabling Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service can sometimes help (I've no idea why), but that's 3rd hand info since I don't connect by WiFi myself. Good luck with help from Canon! Despite a couple of exchanges by phone and e-mail with Canon Technical Support, we are no further forward. I uninstalled ALL Canon software on my p.c. Shut the p.c.

Down, and reinstalled the software which came with the 6D, from the disc. I reset all settings on the 6D - Still the same problem. I also disconnected and restarted the router.there's not a lot else left, unless you can come up with a successful fix which I haven't yet thried or thought of. Any further suggestions would be most welcome, short of sending it back to Canon! An update: a solution to the problem, has been supplied by the technical people at www.camerainthepost.com, who had supplied the 6D to me in the first instance. They responded to my pleas for help with the following advice: QUOTE we think the problem may be caused by the network setting in Windows XP.

It is possible that your computer's firewall setting/sharing setting has blocked the network discovery function which make the PC failed to discover the camera, though the camera is connected to the same network. We'd commend you to check your PC's network setting and make sure UPnP - also called network discovery function is turned on so it can recognize other devices in the same network like the camera. To find how to enable UPnP function, please refer to:. UNQUOTE The UPnP function had not been activated, or had been deactivated, so that was sorted, and I discovered that AVG PC TuneUp software in Turbo mode had turned off synchronisation with mobile devices and limited support for cameras and scanners. Unchecking those limitations, and we were back in business with p.c.
