focusing

I would use any bright star to lock your focus first (with mask if you have it) then move to M31.
Have you tried Astrophotography Tool software?- it supports most Canons and gives you a good screen to help focus with live view and I also use it when I am aligning as it has cross hairs.
You can also control your image acquisition and ISO etc.

Good luck
Graham
