Not sure that you can shoot tethered in the trial version... investigating that.

I was using the trial to see if I could use this on this laptop. You think I have to sign up and pay to find out?

If your laptop is new and you're running current versions of software across the board tethering shouldn't be a problem. I shoot tethered to my laptop without any issues... Nikon D810, Macbook Pro 2017, 16 GB RAM...

If you've followed the steps below and can't select your camera it is likely that this feature isn't offered in the 7-day trial version.

Steps to tether EOS 6D in to Lightroom

Configure the WiFi on the EOS 6D for your network environment.
Set EOS Utility to start up in Remote Shooting mode.
Configure the folder that the images from the EOS 6D are stored in.
Configure Lightroom to Auto Import from the folder created in the step above.

Do you have a card in the camera?
