HI Alan,

thank you for using fixya. for you to be able to set videos on the Mac, first you have to have either the application for the camera that will convert the video file to a file system that the Mac will understand. Once this is done you can transfer videos with no issue. Secondly, you can copy the videos as it is and us itunes to convert the video to a file system that the Mac will be able to understand.

hi try to reset ur camera...To do such reset, turn on the camera and hold the menu button down for longer than 5 seconds. A message should hopefully come up on your LCD asking if you want to reset the camera. Select Yes...
thank u!!!
rate me!!

I was looking thriough my camera and all of my pictures were erased, how do I get them back

Hi,

Try using a can of compressed air on the shutter mechanism. You may have a piece of grit between the blades. Also whilst the camera is switched off you can gently move the shutter manually when you do and there's something stopping it you'll feel it. Move the shutter up and down quickly and the grit may fall out. Even a gentle tap with the camera upside down and the right way up may dislodge any dirt.
One of my customers had the audacity to put a dab of super glue on the shutter. He never had a half open shutter again. A bit drastic but it worked for him. He ended up fitting a UV filter to the lens and his lens is safe from damage or dirt.

First thing I would do is reset the camera. This is a fairly easy procedure which involves either going into your setup menu and choosing "reset" (or initialize), holding down the menu key for 5 seconds, or, removing the batteries for a few minutes. It may be that the firmware loading got corrupted and the camera just needs to be "rebooted," which is something that turning it on/off won't accomplish. But after which, you should have the camera reset to factory default settings.

Another tip is to go to Manufacturer's website and look for firmware updates. Download and install
them.

If problem still persists, if UNDER WARRANTY, get it replaced, If not get it REPAIRED by Tech.

Hope i helped you.

Thanks for using 'Fixya'.

I would guess that the battery is not being charged. The problem could be poor connections between the charger & Camera or between camera and battery; or the battery no longer will take a charge.
First, clean the connections with the eraser end of a pencil. Clean the connections on the Charger and on the camer; clean the battery connections and in the camera, Charge overnight. If this does not get the camera working, borrow a battery and see if this works.

pin inside is stuck

These cameras have little memory and should be used with a memory card. The erase function may be for the memory card. Memory cards are not expensive now.

lol, i had mine for a year also and had the same thing happen to me. My camera wouldn't charge or even turn on for that matter. I was stumbled. After a week of thinking about it I realised I had put the Battery in the wrong way. I dont even remember taking my battery out ever, but I have a Sandisk SD Card Plus w/ USB and when I took it I I think I accidentally popped the battery out too. Then I must have put it back in the wrong way. Make sure the (+) and (-) is on the correct sides. Hope this helps. If not, sorry

Tear off two small pieces of aluminum foil, each one no larger than a fingernail. Fold each one into the same size as the contact points on the Casio Exilim battery you want to jumpstart. Place them on that battery and press them onto the battery contact points. The aluminum foil pieces should protrude enough from the Exilim battery to touch the jumping battery. Then take a 9-volt battery, match the positive and negative terminals to the Exilim battery, and press the 9-volt onto the pieces of foil that protrude from the Exilim battery. Keep the batteries together for about 30 seconds; you may feel the Exilim battery become slightly warmer. Then put the Exilim battery into the charger; you should now see a steady red light with no blinking. This method worked for me.

I just had this happen to mine too. I think this is a design problem with the camera/battery combination. My camera has a lithium polymer battery (most do now). Lithium polymer (lipo for short) batteries should never be allowed to discharge below about 2.75 volts. Letting the battery discharge below that level will actually permanently damage the cell.

In order to keep that from happening, the device that uses the lipo should have protection circuitry that prevents the battery from falling below that level. I think this is where the Casio camera may have an issue. I found that if I left the battery in the camera for about a month, I was not able to charge it! Lipo battery chargers are more sophisticated than typical charges because lipos need to be charged in a specific way. The first thing a lipo charger does is to check the voltage of the battery you insert into it. If it is below a critical minimum voltage, it will not even charge the battery (Casio charger blinks red continuously).

There are a couple tricks you can do to get the battery to charge, but that's not the important thing here. I think Casio needs to address this issue with our cameras. It would be nice if we could just update the firmware in the camera, but I'm not sure we can do that. I intend to contact Casio to see if they know anything. Based on how many posts like this I have read, I bet they do.

Good luck to use all.

Turn off the camera
Take out the card
on the side of the card there should be a little tab switch it to the other possion
reinsert it
turn on the camera please befor leaving a lower feed back if this does not work let me know so I can try to help you correct this. low feed backs hurt my ratings and I am tring to help you with your problem.

from another thread, posted by theslug. This worked great for my camera.

"Hi,I just found a soultion on another website and it appears to have worked for me.Apparently the battery loses it memory when fully discharged,to fix this take a 9v battery and place the terminals + to + and - to - with the camera battery for 30 seconds or so then put the battery back in the camera and charge as normal.I just did this and it seems to be charging and the red light is solid.hope this helps."

try a different computer, restarting your computer, taking the battery out of the camera and putting it back in.

call Casio Customer Support. They should be able to assist you.

make sure that you didn't put the battery in backwards. It can be done and obviously, it won't charge

from theslug on another thread. Thi worked great for me...

1. Remove the battery from the camera and leave it for couple of minutes.

2. Re-insert the battery after maybe 20 seconds and turn the camera on.

on sd cards there is normally a slider on one side of it. next to this is normally an arrow (usually pointing down) that says "lock" next to it. take your memory card out of the camera and make sure the slider isn't on the side that the arrow points to.
hope this helps ;-)

The chances are pretty good that the battery is bad. Buy a new battery - they are inexpensive.

I had the same problem as this.
what i did was...
i kept putting the battery on the charger then took it off as soon as the red light came on.
i did this about 6 times.
doing this puts a bit of charge in the battery each time before the charger starts to flash.
after the battery as got enough charge in it it can start to charge.
hope this helps.
