SOURCE: Granddaughter forced memory card into slot incorrectly and bent pins

A long pair of needlenose pliers, or possibly tweezers. As you've noticed, it's near impossible to disassemble the needles from the mem card housing.

SOURCE: Broken prongs where memory card seats.

Hey jarapo,
There are many repair centers you could bring your camera to. I would suggest either contacting Canon and finding an authorized service center in your area, or you could bring it to a Geek Squad® precinct in a Best Buy™ store and they could send it out for service. I hope this helps!

Sincerely,
Allan
Go Ahead. Use Us.

SOURCE: the memory card slot is not accepting the memory card

CHECK TO SEE IF THE SMALL PROTECT TAB SWITCH HAS BEEN CLOSED ON THE CARD. IT'S JUST BELOW THE TOP EDGE. IF THIS DOESN'T WORK BORROW A FRIENDS CARD AND SEE IF IT WILL CLICK INTO THE SLOT. OK? IF YOU NEED MORE HELP, REPLY TO: ARCLIGHT1217.

SOURCE: I have bent pins in

At this point, you have two choices. You can send it in for service and you could try to straighten them yourself. If the bend is not severe, you could try coaxing them back into position with some kind of probe such as a dental pick or something similar. If you mess up, you still have the option of sending it for service. However, explain your problem in an e-mail to the service dept. and get an estimate first...you may decide it's not worth it.

Where can I get replacement sd card slot

Hopefully your phone is still under warranty. Replacing a SIM card slot requires skill and knowledge. Additionally, any attempt to repair it will nullify the warranty. All in all, the cheapest solution for an out of warranty phone is to go on eBay and buy a replacement.

The other option is to enter into a new contract and perhaps be eligible for a new phone.

Lastly, the alternative is to glue in aluminum foil in place of the broken contacts. This is what I've done to my current Nokia Classic. However, remember that I'm a computer and phone 'geek' and years of experience and knowledge. That's why I'm not going to tell you how to do it,

I have TECHNIKA SH-A366 when I switch this on this message comes on the screen CARD ERROR and it wont allow me to take any pictures please someone help me solve this problem.

It sounds like the memory card (what stores the photos) may be faulty, not inserted correctly or may need cleaning. There should be a memory card slot on the side or underneath the camera. Once you have found the slot push the memory card and it should click out of place. Give the memory card a quick blow and reinsert it, if the error still appears it may be the fact that the memory cards capacity is too large for the camera to handle or is incompatible. If you have another memory card, try that. Comment if you still have an issue. Good luck :)

As I am scrolling through the pictures on the camera, a "read error"message comes up. This is occuring with all of the memory chips - even the new ones so I do not think it is a chip problem. Can you offer...

you have two slots for memory cards .. one for XD and one for CF .. if you have trouble with one slot then you can try the other type card ..

if you are using a CF card or micro drive .. then look into the slot where they normally go .. look for bent or missing pins .. some CF memory cards don't have much of a "lead in taper" on their connector .. sometimes they will snag a pin and bend it, push it out of place or break it ... sometimes you can straighten it but replacing a broken pin is a big job .. usually the whole connector will be replaced if its sent in for repair .. if you have trouble with the CF slot you can instead use a XD memory card .. or visa versa .. the little LED flashlights are ideal for looking into the memory slot...
make sure you format any new memory cards in the camera before use .. that should pick up any problems and makes sure the card is compatable with the system ..

When i turn power on red light beside power light comes on flashes and system beeps

How many beeps? If there are several beeps then there is a hardware problem. It's either the memory card or video card. Try to removed memory and video card and clean its pins by clean cloth and blow it slots accordingly. If it doesn't solve, try replacing each card alternately if you have spare in order to identify which card is not working or malfunctioning or broken.

I have problem with my memory stick in w850

It should be a problem with your memory card slot in your phone. It could solved by dusting the inside of your memory card slot.

After trying this, please reply whether it worked.

Thank You

Memory card error

Check the slot and see if the pins inside are fine, no breakages, free from dust etc. Try turning the camera on and off (completely remove batteries etc).
