    It was a computer cord that is connected to a wall plug. Is this the problem?

Are you charging it by connecting to a computer? The MSDC message says that the camera is connected to a computer. What happens if you disconnect it and then turn it on?

SOURCE: vivitar vivicam 7388s lens won't go back into

Hi Dear,

This issue is not with the battery. This is due to the misalignment of the camera lens. This is a delicate hardware problem. Hence,i would suggest you to take it to some professional or your authorized service center and get it repaired there only. Trying to repair it on your own might make the situation worse and would cost a lot money.

If you need more information on this. Please do write to use.

Have a nice day.

SOURCE: my camera flash is not

On the side of your camera is a switch. Looking at it you will either see mountains or a flower. For flash to work you must see the mountains. Then push and hold the up button that looks like a lightning bolt. The flash should work then.

Vivicam 8025 what does the MSDC screen mean while charging

The MSDC indicates that the camera has recognized it's connected to a computer.

My battery and memory card are in correctly, and it has been "charging for two days, but everytime I turn it on a blue screen that reads MSDC comes on and no matter what buttons I press nothing...

The MSDC simply tells you that the camera is connected to the computer. In order to use the camera to take pictures, you have to disconnect it from the camera.

I just bought the camera and am trying to charge it. I am not getting an LED light but instead a blue screen that says "MSDC" in white letters. I have checked the battery and storage disk...

Are you charging it by plugging it into a computer? The "MSDC" you see usually means "Mass Storage Device Class", which basically means the computer is using the storage on the camera as a removable drive. This would usually happen when plugging a camera into the computer via USB. There is usually an AC adapter that comes with a camera, or a separate charger for just the battery. If there was no charger that came with it, the camera is probably still charging. If the camera is on, try turning it off and plugging it in. Remember, even if it shows "MSDC", it is probably still charging. Hope this helps!

My camera is a vivitar pink (MID0050609) and it wont turn on, unless i plug it it to my charger and when i do the light on the left is red and it just blinks then flash a blue screen turns on that says...

MSDC is not a problem code. It is normal, the camera is informing you that it's connected to a computer. At this point you should see a new "drive" show up in my computer to transfer pictures.

Have you tried turning the camera on when plugged into a wall charger? If it turns on using the wall charger it might need a charge over night. If the camera will still not turn on after a charge the battery is dead and needs to be replaced.

My vivitar vivicam 8025 has been charging for a while and it wont turn on with out the charger . when connected to the charger and turned on it says MSDC on a blue screen.

Make sure the battery is in the camara correctly. I had the problem with the blue screen and MSDC showing and it would not hold a charge. the battery has to be in correctly. It will go in wrong and look right so match up the silver three marks on the battery to the three marks inside the camara where the battery goes. It worked after i did that. Hope this helps!!!

Is my camera charging when plugged in with usb cord it has a blue screen and says MSDC?

The charge light on the back of the camera will light red while charging and go out when fully charged. Your camera should have also come with a separate battery charger if the above method doesn't work.

Blue Screen MSDC

You should only get that screen when it's charging on the wall charger or when it is hooked up to your computer via the USB cord.
