6 do not DOWNLOAD GPS files

I recently bought a 6 d, and everything was fine. I noticed that the battery was draining pretty quickly. Whenever I downloaded images I would be invited on GPS journal fles, I have accepted by download. After a week, I noticed that I had logs starting and ending whenever I removed the battery to charge and re - insert. Also, I noticed some of the logs indicated that the device was locked in my house to be exact. I quickly realized tha that GPS was still active despite the camera turned off, I could confirm when I took a day trip to the party for a photo shoot. The GPS log showed the camera traveling to the Park and back. So, I disabled the GPS until I removed the battery while charging. I was not able to download a GPS file since, even if I put GPS to GPS 'internal' in the menu. The device runs on firmware v1.1.6. [How to make paragraphs?]

There is a separate manual that accompanies your 6 d that covers the features WiFi and GPS.  It is not in the manual (some countries restrict the use of WiFi or GPS - so Canon includes this documentation in a manual for countries where the camera includes the feature WiFi & GPS.)

There is an option to enable or disable the logarithmic function.  With disconnection, the images will be marked, but the camera does not record a log of your movement.

In the GPS menu, there is the option to turn off the GPS, or enable the internal or external GPS (i.e. Canon GP - E2 GPS), but there is also a configuration menu.  In the menu setup, you'll see a caled 'GPS Logger' option.  GPS camera will record the log file, if this option is enabled.  If instead of using USB to transfer images, you use the card camera SD, the GPS of the paper used on this card (even if logging is enabled) unless you return to this menu of logging and use the option 'transfer on data card Journal '.

Interest... it has also an option to change the GPS update interval.  I noticed that Canon does not mention the impact of this on the lives of the battery for the 6 d, but I have a 5 d III with the plug-in for Canon GP - E2 and they DO not mention the interval to update to impact battery life.   The default update interval is 15 seconds.  I set mine to 30 seconds because I walk usually when you use the camera and I tend to find a place with an interesting topic and stay there for awhile while I shoot... I don't need GPS to update my position very often.

As you have already discovered, if you "activate" the GPS, then it remains on at all times when the battery is in the camera - even if the unit itself is 'off '.  There was a bit of discussion on this and Canon seems to indicate that they did this because the GPS may take some time to acquire a position statement and they did not want users to turn off their camera for a moment (for example when changing lenses for example), return - turn on the camera and have then no data position for a few minutes as they try to resume shooting.  I think it's the general consensus of the community, the community wish Canon would have set up a delayed start (for example don't not turn off immediately - from simply turn the camera off to swap lenses would not cut the GPS, but do power off after a certain period of time - perhaps 30 minutes.)  Although it sounds like a reasonable solution, there has been no update firmware to change how the camera & GPS manage power.

If you let the GPS running and that you do not remove the battery, then you'll probably find that the battery is exhausted the next day.

    Hello

    I have a problem with the iCloud drive and download the files of my iMac.

    I installed on my iMac El Capitan. This is a new install, no upgrades. I reconnect to the iCloud drive and it started to download the files on my iMac. Now, after a couple of weeks ago files that were not completed downloaded. I try to run my account to disconnect and reconnect. But it's not help.  The files are still online in iCloud. But not on my iMac, so I can't open them.

    Hope someone has a solution. Thanks for your help.

  • HP laptop does not downloaded program files

    Hello world

    I don't know when this started, but whenever I download a program file, the download is complete, but the file does not open when I click on 'run '. For example, I tried to download the installation of Flash Player and my laptop downloaded the file but I kept clicking on "Run" and nothing appears on the screen.

    Two weeks later, I tried to download the update for Epson printer and again, my laptop downloaded the file but when I click on "Run", nothing.

    I checked to see if it was my firewall settings, so I turned it off and tried to run the programs, but not luck. Any suggestions?

  • Clean install of Windows 10 on Aspire E3 - 574 G does not download executable files

    Hello

    Hope that get responses. A few weeks back I brought a new laptop Acer Aspire E5 - 547g here in Sweden. I have my own MSDN subscription and decided the get rid of default Windows 10 OS I had with the laptop. I downloaded the copy (Enterprise) MSDN and installed a clean place. Then I started to deal with the problems. Any browser that I use, I can't download executable files on the internet. Her work very well with zip files but executable can't do. I put avast license but could not able to download the installation from their site. Not only avast, I can't download any executable. The download will for centuries without updating of the progressbar. If I try to download using download managers, the download is 99% blockage. I've formatted the OS and installed clean several times. I tried different versions of MSDN Windows 10, the result is the same. I was frsutrated on it. I real need is supported now. I hope that I'm not the only one who has experienced this situation.

    "I didn't understand most of your answer." What is my English or the technical parts. With a MSDN and several copies I'm assuming you'd understand.

    With all your changes, the common factors are only the BIOS and an external firewall/router. So if you have a second PC on the same subnet it is the same way or it downloads the extensions correctly.

    BTW when you say 'clean install' are reformat you the drive first?

    I had this problem happen to me twice before involving 1gig zipped files or files unzipped pretending to be finished in the download bar.
