Take your media card out of the camera and insert it directly into your computers media slot. Or use a card reader. No need for the cord.

If you insert the memory stick into your laptop and it does not open a window/box immediately,go to START And click on Computer and look for Removeable Disk, your memory stick should be there with a letter under Removable Disk, now click on it and it should bring up your photos which you can then copy and paste into your picture folder.

Take it to a good camera shop some do repair most dont. The problem most likely is the pinion gear has been moved off the gear that runs the lens in an out. I have gently taken them apart before anrepaired them. It is a trying job, believe me. This is why I never recommend point an shot camera to anyone. You cant remove the lens an the slightest bump will disturb those cameras. You have a noce camera, but I hope someone will try to set it right for you.

Go to Windows update and check for updates while the camera is connected,if It don't download them automatically you have to get them from the manufacturers website.

I had same issue. The battery was empty, and even with USB cable cannot be charge it. I took apart , couldn't fix it so put it together. I had a different brand digital camera battery charger which I modified to charge up this battery. After full charge my digital camera started working. Now I can recharge with USB cable as well.

Memory cards have different write speeds. When making a video it's best to use a series 10 card. This number has nothing to do with the capacity of the card but does have a faster read/ write speed.

check if it belongs to the car or bike with the engine number look in the phone book for the company and ring them up and ask questions about it and quithe the docket number etc and you will know thatis is true or false waranty.

You didn't provide a camera model or describe how your pictures are distorted. However, just try these preliminary steps to start with. First make sure you have a fully charged battery, your lens is opening and clean, then reset the camera's options to factory default options. See if the problem is resolved.

I would confirm that you are installing the batteries correctly (Positive is the +, Negative -)... I would also confirm that your NEW BATTERY is also GOOD. On more than one occasion, I have purchased a NEW BATTERY just to discover it was defective.

This sounds like a mechanical problem inside the camera. If it has a flip-up mirror behind the lens, for example, the mirror may be stuck in the up position. Have it serviced by a qualified technician.

What photos are you trying to take? If you are too close the camera cannot focus. Also you may have camera shake when you take an image. Here is a link to the professionals at Olypus

Please don't try to do a firmware upgrade, on a device that is not working 100 %. You need a good working device, to be sure the software is placed in the flash memory, as it was meant to be. I don't think there will be any firmware around for this camera. So if anything is wrong with the camera, first try to find out what it is. Solve the problem, and only then (if available) upgrade.

You didn't give the model of your Olympus camera so I'll assume it uses SD cards. SD cards have a slide switch along one edge. The position farthest from the metal contacts locks the card, protecting it from writes. The position nearest the contacts unlocks the card.

Do you have these lines on the screen, while taking pictures in the dark, or ale these lines there always, While taking pictures and viewing the pictures as well? Dod you view the pictures on the computer and are there also lines or not on the PC?

Please check the shooting mode. Restore Default might help

There could be several reasons. The camera isn't focused. Adjust the focus. The diopter is not set properly. Some cameras have a viewfinder diopter adjustment. This is similar to putting eyeglasses on the camera. Just as things will look blurry to you if you look through someone else's glasses, the viewfinder will be blurry if the diopter is not set properly for your vision. I wish I could tell you how to adjust this (or even whether your camera has it) but since you didn't bother to specify the model of your Olympus camera...

Point at thing to photograph. Press button.

Did you remove the battery and replace it after a few moments? this will "reboot" the camera, like a cold boot from a computer. Then try again. I can't believe a landing on the carpet would cause mechanical problems, but you never know. Could be just a setting, and that will be restored after the boot.
