What's the best way to go about fixing that??
The best way to fix it is to understand the information you have been given.
Did everyone who has it on their camera just follow the instructions as written?
Essentially, yes. All the required information is there.
This thread is for development, not basic install help. The install process does not depend on which camera you have, and has nothing to do with the specific port.
The manual loading method is extremely simple. All you have to do is
1) copy the files to the root of your SD card. If using a Mac, make sure that it doesn't do stupid magic behind your back
http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ/Mac#Still_Having_Trouble.3F 99% of Mac users problems are caused by this.
2) insert the card and start the camera in play mode
3) press the menu button, and scroll down to "firm update"
If you continue to have problems, please start a new thread in
http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php/board,34.0.htmldescribe exactly which instructions you followed, and what the result was. Just saying "I tried to follow the FAQ and it didn't work" doesn't give enough information for anyone to help you. The install process is known to work. If it doesn't work for you
you are doing something wrong. If you want help, you have to give us enough information to figure out what you did wrong.
