Hi

 

canon sx60 HS.  I was running camera window and wanted to change to camera connect. Followed some online instructions to delete my iPad from the mobile connect button in the settings menu but the button is now greyed out so I can't restore the iPad as the target device as imstructed.  ive trie resetting everything to default but that has no effect so I'm now baffled . Camera works fine but some night extended exposures need the camera really steady so I need the remote control facility afforded by the camera window or camera connect apps.  Would appreciate any help you can provide.

 

Cheers, David

 

I take it that you're trying to make a wireless connection.  Visit this link, and navigate to the SX60HS support page.

You should see a link to "Wireless Help".  Make sure your camera has wireless communications enabled, not USB mode.
