Hello Joan,Are you using a memory card? If you are not, you should use one so you can save more pictures.To solve our problem, copy the pictures from your camera to your computer or memory card. After that, remove the memory card (if you are using any) and then delete all the pictures from your camera. That should give you back more space in your internal memory.I hope this helped you!-damneddle

You can also transfer them using the supplied USB cable and the software included.

The C340 works with MMC and SD cards. Your 16GB card is a SDHC card. While it fits into the slot, it is electronically incompatible and will not work. You need to use a MMC or SD card, which top out at 2GB.

The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB or FireWire). This is likely to be faster than connecting the camera to the computer, and won't run down your camera's batteries.

Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system's drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer's hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or you can use any photo cataloging program, such as Picasa ( http://picasa.google.com ).

If you want to install the Kodak software, go to http://support.en.kodak.com

I haven't delt with the Easyshare program in a few years, but it sounds like it got corrupted, as you believe. There should be a folder in the Easyshare program or in My Picures in the computer where the pictures are stored. Go in and look around and try to find them. You can bypass the Easyshare program by having windows open them through the drive device in lMy Computer, or Computer, depending on which version of Windows you are running, and then drag and drop them from the drive to a folder on the desktop, or into My Pictures, etc.
The program may be able to be reinstalled by removing the files, if you want to use the EasyShare program, but if you do this and install it again, if your pictures are in the program folder, they could be erased.
Wish I had more, but hope this helps.

This camera apparently has issues with batteries. No matter how new or how charged the battery is every once in awhile it acts as if the batteries are dead. I have no clue how to solve this issue besides complaining to kodak about it and make them fix your camera if it is still under warranty.

With no card in the camera, go into the menu and find "format" and follow the on-screen instructions to erase the internal memory.

Good day,

This tip will explain a few methods on how to try and fix your lens if it is stuck or you get a lens error on your screen.

Please note that all these methods are used at the users own risk and that I can not be held responsible for any damages or losses that occur while trying these methods.

1. If your camera is still under warranty, send your camera to the manufacturer to be replaced or fixed professionally.

2. If your camera is out of warranty try these methods.

• Make sure your batteries are fully charged.
• Remove the batteries for 10min. Replace the batteries and see if the problem persists.
• Try compressed air. This method can be useful if there are any sand or any other object stuck in the lens motors. Use compressed air with a fine tip. Direct the air between the camera body and lens and move in a circular motion around the lens to complete a full rotation.
• You can also try to tap the padded USB cover firmly on a flat surface like a table. This is sometimes a surprisingly effective method.
• The last method is to try and force the lens. Turn of your camera and place it on its back on a flat surface. Look at the spacing between the lens and the body and see if the gap is consistent all the way around the lens. If the gap is not even it is likely that the camera fell while the lens was extended. Now VERY GENTLY push down on the lens were the gap is the biggest until you her a "click". This will indicate that the lens is back in place. Try powering back on.
• If the lens does not extend or it extend and retracts turn of the camera. Hold the camera in your one hand and with the other hand turn the one part of the lens in a circular motion. Rotate both sections of the lens until you hear a "click". This will indicate that the lens popped back in place. Power the camera back on.
• The last method you can use is to turn the lens while powering on the camera until you hear a "click". Power the camera of and back on to see if it works.

If any of the methods listed above failed to work for your lens problem it would be wise to take it on to a professional to get your camera repaired.

Thanks for taking the time to read my tip and feel free to let me know if it was of any help.

Regards
