Hello Gail, Sounds like this needs to be looked at by a camera tech to determine if it is due to worn parts or dirty.
Best Regards, Russell

Here are the steps:
1. Make sure you will install a new or fully charged battery/batteries into your camera.Pls. use lithium batteries Ni-Mh or rechargeable Batteries (2000 M.Amp or higher).
2. Clean the battery contacts.
a. Remove the battery/batteries and the memory card from your camera, then wipe the battery contacts with a soft, clean cloth.
b. Reinstall the battery/batteries into your camera
3. Without the memory card,turn on your camera.

I have this camera once you remove the case screws than when ever you seporate the case the door will come out. I repair these all the time and if I have on in stock it is only 25.00 to get it fixed. I beleave you can order one directly from kodak also.

Completely uninstall EasyShare and download the newest version from the Kodak website.

Can't fix it yourself. Contact Kodak or try a good camera repair shop, as they stand the best chance of getting the alignment back in place.

IF you still have warranty - then back to the store or Kodak it goes. If it is out of warranty - check Kodak site for tech help- they may offer a swap out for a low price.

Try blowing lots of compressed air around the open lens shutter to clean the mechanism. Or use a hair dryer for a few seconds (don't want to heat up the camera). Also with the lens barrel extended and pointed downward, tap the lens barrel with a pencil while you extend and retract the lens by powering the camera on and off. A grain of sand in the mechanism is usually the culprit, and you want to try to dislodge it.

You can open it up, but only as a very last resort. The above procedures usually work if you try them enough. But for those particularly nasty stuck mechanisms, here's an example repair on a Canon Powershot A400 (do this at your own risk, and it will void your warranty):
