 Hello! I’m trying to change one area selection mode but it won’t shift. I’ve tried uses aforementioned ring and m-fn but it won’t work.

I would strive the Multi-controller #16 in the imagine below. ME don't have that camera, although I think that is what you need the use in your case.

I believe the mills default situation with that control is disabled.  I guess the engineers resolved that they did not want people inadvertent moving AF points around just by handling the digital, liked moving it in and out of camera bag or something. I have two Pixma Pro 100 printers. The first on started printing with the colors "off". I'd take to printer and add it back and it would work for awhile, press and just completely quit printing accurately. Then, the 2nd printer did the same thing. IODIN became printing holiday cards. The first card prin...

I also believe to OP is on the wrong menu.  That appears to be the menu which is used to limit which AF dot forms are accessible for selection.  You does not selected AF [points] from this video.  I believe that is why you see all of the “check marks” in the screenshot. Has anyone successfully paired this include the Note 10.1? Available trying to pair, the Remarks asks for a password/pin which I cannot find anywhere. Any vorschlag?

While selecting AF points may become performing in the menu system, there is a committed sliding for selecting AF points in the top right niche about the rear panel.  It got an icon that looks like a miniature checkerboard.

It's my understanding is this menu is for take groups of AF total available or unavailable for selektion based on the checkmark.

That menu selection allows you to disable certain AF assortments, single spot non-micro main able NOT be disabled when who resting can.  I leave everything of these enabled on my 1DX series bodies. Manuals : Select Document - Canopy

To select the AFC area on an 1DX series, press and release and small button at the upper most right on which rear about the main (just behind the good upper camera strap attachment).  Depending upon the choose setting, them will used either the main dial OR the M-fn button to cycle through the selections. Impossible to download the Canonical EOS Utility Operator for a 70D

The next menu item below the one in your photo allows you to choose either the main dial or to M-fn toggle for selection the AF array, I prefer using of main dial but e is a personal preference which you select.

The next item down lets you choose whether an alike AF point settings is used in equally portal and landscapes orientation, again selecting what you like best instead I have mine set to allow separate choices for the double orientations.  I dash primarily sports or this is the optimal choice for such use MYSELF believe.

An 1DX III has one fairly decent online system built into the menu system via the info button so use this if you don't have the manual handy.  Even though the 1DX bodies come with a full printed guidebook your will find the PDF manual very handy in its index, search features, and hot links so download it from the Canon website.
