How do I display date and time for Canon Power Shot?

Turn on the camera and press the DISP button 2 -3 times and see the result.

Don't know if you have the user manual for it but I uploaded it to here:
UManual
Hope it helps.

The date and time (and a lot more) are stored with every picture in its EXIF metadata. Any photo viewing/editing program should be able to display this data. To print this data, please consult the documentation for whatever program you're using to print your pictures. Depending on the program and printer you may print the date on the image, in the margins, or on the back.

When you download the pics to your computer and view them, is the date and time on the pics then? If not, then your camera is not including the info on the pic itself.

Hi Steve, thanks for coming to FixYa.

First, for your model of camera, you do know that you can only Print the date and time the pic was taken on the photo right? It does not embed the date and time data into the image, like some cameras do.
Here is a direct quote from the manual if you want to check my information. You will find it on page 21. "Setting the date and time settings does not cause the date/time stamp to appear on the images."

This may/maynot be what you wanted, either way let me know with a comment. I can describe how to set the date and time in the camera's setup menu for you if you want, and/or I can tell you how to make sure you print the date and time on your photos. Otherwise, have fun with your camera and please rate my solution a fixya.

Just download the free image software 'irfanview' . this small software got tremendous power of batch-processing. U can easily stamp date on each shot with it. Just go through its 'help' menu

You have to select 'Postcard' for the image size -- on the same menu as L, M1, M2, M3, S, Postcard.

Hi, I have the same problem and I was told it works in a postcard mode. Try it.
