Hi Whitetie1,

 

The issue you've encountered may be with the Canon iMAGE Gateway.  It was undergoing scheduled maintenance yesterday and earlier today.  Please try logging into the Canon iMAGE Gateway using your web browser.  If you're able to do so, you should also be able to send images to Facebook.

I am having the same problem with my SX510. I have sucessfully attached to my wifi and I have downloaded the software to my surface in readiness to share photos.  But the camera tells me busy evety time and switches to Set date and time

I just got off the phone with Canon technical support. We double checked the date/time setting on the camera and to my surprise I had the year set at 2013, but the other interesting thing was they said I had to turn ON daylight savings time. It worked and I was able to see the Authenticate code on the camera.

Rock thats good info thanks for sharing that !

I can't find my Authentication Code.  I have tried entering the very small number on the camera, as well as 3 different numbers on the box.  Where is the code, please?
