My camera will not turn on no matter what I do.

You will need either the camera power supply or a charged battery, if don't have a power supply for camera or a charged battery there is no way around it.

Turn camera off take out battery's and sd card. Once everything is out put it to the on postion for about 2-3 min. Then put battery's back in with the camera being on still leave sd card out. Once it says no card turn camera off then put sd card back test in dark. If still not working call Moultire 8006533334 option 1 and 1 for a live person.

put it in a computer and see what it reads,it might need formatting .

Find a solution, you can have a try:

1. SD Card out
2. Battery out wait 10 seconds
3. Battery in wait 1 minute (this extra time was the key to getting this sequence to work for me)
4. Power up take a photo, power down (you have about a three second window before it goes into Tel mode)
5. Wait 1 min

6. Power up (NB still no SD card)

At this point camera appears to be working stays in normal mode with --- displayed because no SD card is inserted.

Also interestingly plugging a video output cable into HDTV output socket makes camera go to Tel mode AND when you unplug it camera goes back to normal.

However plugging the SD card sends camera into Tel mode permanently. On the plus side this 1-6 sequence was repeatable and worked every time.

From this point I tried many combination's of video cables, SD cards, formatted, erased waiting....then came the USB cable!

7. Connect USB cable to computer (NB still no SD card installed)

8. Insert SD (Computer should detect card and any photos taken should be viewable)

9. "Eject" Camera from Computer USB

10. Disconnect camera from USB (should power down by itself)

11. Power up Camera, Woohoo! it works again!

No . The pictures that are stored on the SD card can be downloaded on to the PC as the images are stored on to the card and will not be deleted unless you do with the camera menu or the PC.
Once the SD card is taken out remove the battery and tryt o tap lightly on the camera with the hood down. It might release any jamming . repeat with the battery put in , with the power ON.
If not contact Samsung service.

SD cards have a slide switch along one edge. The position farthest from the contacts locks the card, protecting it from writes. The position nearest the contacts unlocks the card. If the switch is already in the proper position, slide it fully the other way and then back again.

How to switch the camera over to saving pictures directly onto the SD card.

1. Menu
2. Cam settings
3. Chose AUTO or SD card option and Press OK

Note: If the SD card isn't in the camera or is unreadable the camera will automatically go back to saving you taken pictures on the internal memory.

If you still experience problems:
The lever on your SD card might be turned the wrong way so the SD card is reading protective.
Please turn the lever and try again.

The SD card might not be supported by the model: Your camera Memory card support is SD/MMC up to 1 Gigabyte

The SD card might not be faulty, try another card, since the camera could give you a message like the one you're experiencing.
Try with a different SD card that is supported by the camera.

After you having successfully switched over to saving onto the SD card. I would guess that you would like to transferre the pictures from your internal memory over to the SD card.:

Take your sd memory card out of your camera, and put it in your computer. A file with your pictures should appear. Copy thoes pictures into a different fold on you computer. Take you sd memory card out of your computer and plug it back into your camera. Your pictures will be both on your camera and on your computer.
