I was wondering if someone could help me....I recently moved so our wifi is clearly different.
I deleted out the old settings and connected it to our new wifi.
Everytime I try to connect to the cloud, it prompts me to "set the correct date and time".
The date and time are correct.
I cannot get my camera to upload pictures.
Any help is apprecaited!

Hi,
This can happen under a few different circumstances. First, when you moved did you move to a different time zone? The camera tries to sync with your internet connection's time so if it is off by an hour due to time zone changes it may be seeing an issue. The other two potential causes are the date layout or time layout. I recommend doublechecking that the date layout is as expected (mm/dd/yyyy versus dd/mm/yyyy) and that the clock time is set appropriately for either the 12 hour or 24 hour format. A lot of times the clock may be accidentally set to 24 hour time which is typically not a problem but it can mean that a setting of 4:00 is interpreted as 4:00am when 4:00pm would be 16:00.

What camera are you using? What are attempting to connect to? Canon Image Gateway?

So that the Community can help you better, we need to know exactly what problem you are having with your PowerShot G7 X Mark II and which operating system is running on your computer (i.e. Windows or macOS, and which version thereof). That, and any other details you'd like to give will help the Community better understand your issue!

Hello and thanks for your reply,
My camera is the first version of the G7X and I never tried connecting with Wifi,
I tried yesterday for the first time to upload to cloud (I'm using windows but I wanted to link the camera to my Canon ID regardless my OS) but every time after connecting to my router it says please set your date&time the date and time are set correctly and I tried moving it backward and farward but no change 😞
Resseting the camera and ressetting the Wifi settings also didn't seem to help anything,
Would be very thankful if anyone could help.

You should start a new thread of your own. This would put your description of your issue at the top of the page. It gets confusing when members start posting on old threads, especially when multiple members do it on the same thread.
Thanks, in advance!
