Using Yongnuo 560 III with Nikon d3200

[gmaddla]

I recently purchased a Yongnuo 560 III flash unit. Appears to work fine off camera in slave mode.
I can't get it to flash when connected via hotshoe, (in manual or slave mode)
I suspect it is in the camera settings.
Any ideas?

Manual?

I have a D3100 and my 560 III works fine. Is the camera in manual mode? I doubt this would make an issue, but I had also turned in the built in flash to manual mode before I got the flash. Again I doubt this would do it, but it's worth a try? I'm assuming you have mounted it fully in the hotshoe, and that you got the nikon version, and not the canon version?

How did you attempt to test the flash in slave mode while it was mounted on the hotshoe? Just curious.

Hi, I know it's a couple of years ago now but did you get this issue resolved and if so what did you do?

I think I have discovered the solution. Turn off the wifi when it's on the hotshoe!!
