have you put batteries in the flash, and did you flick the on button?

try this,
when you put a flash on the hotshoe the pop-up is replaced by that flash.

SO!
turn your camera's built in flash to manual power rather than TTL.... that might do the trick.
(i know my camera has that ability... i do believe many canons dont allow manual power to the pop-up)

just a thought
