Step 1: Preparing necessary items
1. Check the computer's requirements.
The camera can connect via Wi-Fi to computers running the following operating systems.
Windows: Windows 8, Windows 7 Service Pack 1
Macintosh: Mac OS X v10.6.8, v10.7, v10.8.2 or later.
IMPORTANT
Windows 7 Starter and Home Basic editions are not supported.
Windows 7 N (European version) and KN (South Korean version) require a separate download
and installation of Windows Media Feature Pack.
2. Confirm that an access point base unit (Wi-Fi router, etc.) is connected to the computer.
3. Make sure that the included CameraWindow software is installed.
*The software is available for download from the Canon website.
NOTE
A router is a device that creates a network (LAN) structure for connecting multiple computers. A
router that contains an internal Wi-Fi function is called a "Wi-Fi router".
This page will refer to all Wi-Fi routers and base stations as "access points".
When unsure of your computer setup, refer to the user manual provided with the computer.
