EOS RP

[Lunar66Man]

  Hello group

            I have a laptop that has been with me in my travels of shooting the Moon, about 3 months it died, and i thought about a new laptop of a more portable tablet, so I purchased a Samsung S8+Ultra , now I want to download my BYE program but I have the newer Canon EOS RP camera, and Im wondering if BYE will support the newer cameras by Canon, secondly I have all my info on when I renewed my BYE how do I go about downloading it ?

         Thanks for any help you can give

I replied to your similar post from yesterday.

1) Yes, BYE 3.2.2 supports the EOS RP camera.

2) Download BYE by scrolling to the bottom of this page and click on the Download button under BackyardEOS.

3) Your existing license key is available by choosing My Purchases -> Orders from the menu at the top of this page.

4) BYE requires Windows and the .NET Platform. It also requires a USB connection, since the Canon EOS SDK software library does not support pairing via WiFi.

Please don't create several posts for the same question, it makes it impossible to follow.

I also noticed that this post and your post from yesterday were created from two  different accounts Lunar66 and Lunar66Man. Using two different accounts is highly discouraged since whatever license keys you have purchased are listed under only the account that was used to purchase them. This can be confusing for you and can lead you to think that O'Telescope has "lost" your license key.

Going forward you should only use one account...the account with your license keys.

Your Samsung S8+Ultra will NOT work for BYE/BYN as it is an Android Tablet. 

BYE/BYN requires a Windows PC/Laptop/Tablet running Windows 10/11 (or even Win7 with some updates).

I did see that it is possible to get a Samsung S8 Ultra with Windows 11. Even if the OP has the S8 Ultra with Windows 11, it may not have the required USB port to wire the camera to the tablet.
