Canon 500D Appears in Control Panel

Question

When using my camera with BYEOS ...

 

In Control Panel > System > Device Manager

 

My Canon 500D (T1i) does not appear in Ports (COM and LPT).

 

It appears in Portabable Devices as "Canon Rebel T1i".

 

So with BYEOS, camera does not need a COM port, or is Portable Device another type of COM port?

Canon 500D is not going to show up as a Com port.  It is a Device, attached via USB.  

 

You have it connected correctly.  And you should be able to connect to it with BYE (assuming that you installed the Canon Drivers which ship on the Canon Software CD and install with the "EOS Utility" installation)...
