Flash fails I have three Microtek Take-it MV300. I cannot get flash to work on any of them

There are three issues, the flash bulb, high voltage capacitor, and the step up transformer, any one of these will cause the flash to fail.

If it fails to work on at least three machines that are known to accept other working USB storage devices then try low-level formatting.

There are 2 steps you can do to get this option back.

First, You need to update Adobe Flash player Or you need to uninstall and Reinstall the Adobe Flash player.

Since you uninstalled the Software and and reinstalled, the Software is not able to detect the latest Adobe software in your PC.

May i know what is the operating system ?

Try this step below to update to adobe flash player if you are using Windows XP or Windows Vista
Click on START button
Click on MY Computer or Computer
Open C:/ local Disk
Open Windows Folder
Open System32 Folder
Open Macromed Folder
Open Flash Folder
You will find few flash files
Double click on file Flashutil10 and it should give you update screen. Continue and complete the process.
Restart your PC and try to Scan

If this does not work, you need to uninstall adobe flash player and reinstall it and it will work.

your battery in camers is going bad replace.

Performance wise, the camera has a couple of niggles. Start up to first shot time is around a second, and shot to shot (without flash) is good with three shots (the top three or the last three in a sequence are captured) in around 1.5 seconds unless the camera needs to refocus ort the flash fires. Flash recharge is around five seconds and disappointingly, the camera locks up as the flash charges, which is a shame.

But, focusing becomes an issue in low light too, where the camera will hunt trying to key on the subject or just continually fail to focus. So, beware in low light. There was another focus niggle on smaller subjects in macro mode where the camera would simply refuse to focus on anything in the frame smaller than the central AF area, and no matter what you do.

The **mAH factor is storage capacity- or life between charges
so a high numbers mean more pix between charges - So fine fo for it
The Voltage is critical however - it must be as stated in the manual or as the original battery

There are two different versions of the users manual available on the Microtek Web site...you'll need to choose which manual to download depending on whether you are using a Windows or MAC computer.

I would suspect it needs to have electronic troubleshooting done in the power supply section to find and replace the defective components. Is it possible the capacitor is in backwards?
