Two years after your post, it’s now 2023… 7 years later. Sure wish Canon would provide a help video on each specific feature.

Nice Job Roy. Enjoyed your step by step approach, your perceived pitfalls and how you overcame them.

Really good video, I'm buying a used Vixia and you just saved me tons of grief! Thank you!!!!!

Thank you Roy very much , as i will soon buy this camera, and it will be my first time recording and then sending to youtube Chris.

Hey Roy, I just want a simple on/off remote for my r60. Do you know if the Vixia is capable of using an ir remote?

I just purchased the r800. Thank you so much!!! I must share!!!

how did you do this with the r800? there's no home button on it so I can't follow this video

THANKS!!!!!!!!! You have done a great service to humanity!!!!!! LOL no but thanks....they should hire folks like you to do the manuals and instruction videos.

SO what is the conclusion on iMac's I have an iMac and I can't get it to work with my camera nor is there a download to for them to be compatible with each other.

Extremely helpful, thanks.

Thanks, Roy. This video was helpful. Do you have any suggestions if my iPad won't stay connected to the Vixia wi-fi? I 'forgot' my home wi-fi, but my iPad keeps finding it even if I manually type the SSID and password.

I have an hf r52. It seems a bit different. I love you easy instructions, any help with this model?

That was really helpful. Thank you!

Is the process similar on the G series?

Thanks so much for this, Roy! Now that I’ve used your instructions to connect my Vixia Mini X to wifi, do you know if it’s possible to live stream by connecting the camera to my laptop? Also, I’m seeing this 6 years after you created the video. Do you know of a more compatible app than Pixela? I’m not sure that app is still supported in 2020! Thanks again for your help!

Awesome tutorial! Thank you!

I was stuck at the end key till I found this. Thank You

Does it work with a Canon Vixia hf200 camcorder

Hey! Im looking for a camcoder which is able to use in normal recoreding mode and takong the movies and at the same time read movies through the tablet... is it possible with any of the camera? Thanks!!

Nice tips. I learned something today.

Very helpful. Thank you.

Sorry, my Vixia HF -800 doesn't have this feature. It doesn't even have the home button.

Any app I could use for windows 8?

Thank you soooooo much! The directions online and the directions that comes with the camera were soooo confusing! I'm just getting into filming and this vid helped a lot!

Does this app still exist on Macbook? Cant find it...

I have an HF R42 little different but while he was explaining I just keep trying different things , while rewinding video and listening ,,, thank you Sir,,, now how do i control the recording, zooming in & out ????

Does this work for the hf r30?

Thanks Roy. That was great

Does this work for the rf800 because I can’t they the WiFi button to pop up on the camera

Hi Roy, my Canon Vixia HF R82 is taking ridiculously long to transfer hockey game video to my computer. (It takes about 16 hours to transfer my hockey game). What am I doing wrong?

After an hour of frustration, this video was great! Any chance you could make a video on how to do the same with a Windows PC instead of an Apple IOS?

ACTUALLY, I have a WINDOWS10 LAPTOP, and I'd really love how i can hook the camera videos, if they just went to the camera's memory, to my laptop, and WINDOWS8 PC. Do we need different apps on those devices to transfer the videos from the phone memory. Also, even easier, how do i make sure that my camera is recording on the SD CARD, so I don't need to pull the videos from the camcorder memory?

Wondering if you could help me I have the vixia HF R20 and I just want to take the SD card out of my camera and put it in my Samsung iPad but when I go to my files and click on canon window it say cannot find app to perform this action I tried several apps none of them seem to work

Will this work with my Canon Vixia HF R800?

Is there a way to simply get the vids on a PC manually? Because I cannot find the WiFi button. my PC isn't even detecting the USB when I plug the camera to my PC

Excellent tutorial! I've owned my Canon Legria about 10 years now and have never attempted to use the WiFi function. I've always inserted my SD card in my laptop, but now I'll use your tutorial to try and transfer videos via WiFi. Thank you.

Thank you sir I hope canon sends you a shout out also ... do one on how to live stream or how to use camera as baby monitor etc

How can I download the image on a iPhone 7 ?

BIG HELP !!! thank youuu

Omg I needed this 😁

My Vixia HF R70 has slightly different menu options. Here's how I got mine to work: Press “play” button on camera to get into “play” mode. Hit the “home” button on screen. Choose “wifi”, then “check/edit settings”, then “access point configuration settings”, then pick the first “not configured”. The easiest way to set it up is “search for access points”. Find your network on the list, and enter your password. Then go back to the “wifi” menu and choose “playback via browser”. This sets up a wifi network, and it gives you the password on the screen. Choose this network from your computer or device and join it with the given password. When you join the network, the screen will tell you to go to “vixia.canon” in your web browser. When you’re there, you can see your videos and photos and download them.

Can this camera be used for live streaming to face book

Thanks for this ! .... big help !1

OMG, I wish I had found your tutorial a day ago. I spent probably close to 2 hours screwing around trying to do just this. I did figure it out but your video would have saved me hours. Now, how do you connect the other app which allows you to remote control the camcorder? This is also vexing me. I've got the HF-R50.

Can you hardwire it instead of Wi-Fi?

Does anyone know how close the camera needs to be to the device to see the video? If they're both on the same wi-fi can they be apart by 30-50 ft?

I want to use my Canon Vixia HFG20 to record live and for it to connect to facebook live, how can i do that

Great video well done .

THANKS!!! How do i do it on pc

setting up the wi fi was not difficult, but does make a utility for a windows pc? they don't make that pixela movie downloader for windows. my camcorder said it is successfully connected to my router, but it won't recognize my pc

How do I go live stream from vixia to Facebook or KZread

can I go live like this....thanks great video!!!

I use R82, there are only power and playback button, which one is home button?

I used two cans and a string. It worked way better .

Helped so much

How to do on the HF R500 tho?

Great video. However, the pixela movie uploader is unavailable. Just picked up the camera and trying to get up to speed.

For me it does not show the option save it on the phone .. how can I fix it ?

I am looking to stream video live with added audio so would be doing that through the HDMI - but we also want to connect a second computer to use another program to highlight places on the video can a second output be used at the same time??

I don't have apple products so I can't download this app. Is there an alternative method? Pixela is only available on iOS is the message I get.

I have literally spent hours reading and researching this software problem. nothing works when it comes to software detecting my VIXIA HF G40. everything on cam corder and iPad work properly. The AP will not detect my camcorder.

is there an android alternative for pixela?

Does this work with iOS 16?

Mine is an R62. Not sure which one you have, but I don’t have the home button by the power and play button. When I tap the home button on the lcd screen, it leads me down a dark, dark path. I’m going to try getting the footage I have into an sd card and save it the old fashioned way. Next I’m going to punt the camera into a landfill and never buy a cannon product again.

I just bought this camera but the WiFi section on the Menu is disabled in grey color, I cant make any changes on WiFi section

I don't believe that download from Pixela is available any longer. Any one know where I can get one?

thank u ♥

I just bought a Canon Vixia HF R800 Camcorder and am really peeved to find out it doesn't have Wi-Fi capabilities. That I can tell anyway. Which Canon Vixia Camcorders do?? Although, honestly, I would probably just return the damn thing and not exchange it. I'd go buy a different brand altogether. It ticked me off enough I had to go buy a memory card. They should be included.

Thanks for the video. I am an IT guy and I am having issues figuring that (*&%% thing out. Just about ready to box it up and send it back. I just want to be able to download to my PC wirelessly. What model is your camera? I have the R70. It doesnt have the HOME button you mentioned in your video. I only have a PLAY and ON/OFF.

guys guys guys! i wanted to add something. This video is how to use the wifi feature on this particular camera. you can dislike my video because yours didn't work considering I'm showing you how it works perfectly with these steps for me. Also this isn't about the quality of the camera or canons decision to use this type of transfer system. its just about transferring photos to devices via the wifi function. thats it! people are funny.

I put my Wi-Fi on my vixia hf r80 but it won't connect I know this one is different but can someone tell how

@cuzinzz7226

Did u figure it out, that’s the one I have

I tried that and the transfer rate is too slow. it's way faster just to take the SD card out of the camcorder stick it in the slot in the computer and then transfer the files.

I had no problem connecting my vixia hf r82s WiFi to my Motorola G3 Android phone

And THERE IS NO WIFI BUTTON

So basically this is like sharing files on a Windows HomeGroup. But can the Canon camcorder and the Android device talk to each other without needing any proxy server? Say you want to transfer files directly from the camera to the tablet on the go where wifi hotspot is not possible. And would it be possible to remotely control your Canon to shoot videos wirelessly through an Android apps much like an IP camera? Lastly, would it be possible to go "Facebook Live" just by connecting wirelessly through a 3G phone device?

This is a great review for the Vixia model he has but the model I (and others) apparently have is different. I have the Canon Vixia HFR70, 32X Optical Zoom, 57X Digital Zoom and my camera is all black. Notice in this tutorial video his camera is silver on the lens surround, obviously a different model year. I have no home button where he indicates, only on the LCD screen, and when I hit that the next choices are no where near what his are. This is why I and others cannot use this tutorial and are still stuck.
