I turn my C913 on, and it turns right back off again. I put new batteries in it. Two days ago when I tried it, it said, you have changed the date and time, and then it turned off. It is only a couple months old, but I bought it refurbished on buy.com and can't find my receipt.

Hi,

What you have been told is correct. When the real time clock battery (CMOS) runs out then the date and time will revert back to the day the bios was programed, in your case 3 years ago.

You can set the date and time while you are using Windows but each time you power the laptop down it will loose this information.

A quick workaround is not to power the laptop off but put it to sleep instead until you have got a CMOS battery for the laptop.



Regards.

Hi! My phone had exactly the same problem a few days ago! I got a new battery - it worked fine for a couple of days and here we go again... It is dead! Please let me know what you did with your phone! I have a new BB curve! Thank you!

frist chack your batteries may be you batteries are not charged frist time you have to charge minimum 6 hrs. if you batteries are rechargeble then chak what is the MAH if you r camera is taking morethen 600 MAH then it will not work u have to go for more then 1200 MAH

then only it will work

I had this problem as well. After spending an hour with a service representative from Kodak, I was told that in order to fix it, it would cost me $60 + $10.95 shipping + applicable state sales tax. I was frustrated when I realized that I may as well just buy a new camera. I then proceeded to gently poke/prod/slam the camera against my hand, but nothing changed. Then, in a moment of inspiration, I turned it on and gently held the outside of the lens as it turned off. When I tried to turn my camera back on, the problem (whatever it was) was fixed!

Make sure you are using rechargable batteries. Normal batteries are not strong enough. Try using either rechargable Lithium Ion batteries, or rechargable Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries. These are much stronger and should give you a good battery life.
Let me know if this helps :)

Hi I had the same problem with my daughters c713. Tried several bateries found out that the camera is specific with its bateries brand. When i put in new ones from kodak itself from my sons camera a c913 the c713 turn on again. Tried a new pack local brand checked them first and voltage was ok but didn´t work again. Back in those from kodak and ok again. Tried philips also ok.
So try different brand and find out. Good luck.

It looks like the date battery has dried out, check your user manual and try to replace with a new button battery.

Hi is the camera felt on the floor

I had a similar problem with my Cyber-shot S600. It just turned off every time I tried to take a photo. I bought a Sony recharger + batteries and it fixed the problem. Camera works fine and I'm impressed with the how long the batteries last between charges.
