Did you try to press the display button several times? Most of the time you can cycle through different views on the display, with different information during record mode. One is display off.

Send it to the company if you still have some warranty left. Otherwise you may just need to pay around $50 and they will replace it for you with a refurbished one.Hope it helps!

Since you can see the menus, did you try to go to the setup menu, and adjust the brightness of the screen? It is in the setup menu, the line under Sound settings. Try to make the display brighter and don't forget to ok that one, because otherwise nothing will be changed. OK with the ok / Func button.

check if you can find any obstruction, that blocks the free movement of the lens barrel. If nothing is visible on the outside, perhaps something inside went wrong. (broken gear?) As long as the camera finds the lens barrel does not go out to the end position, it will try to get the lens in and switch off. Also try to charge the battery, because an almost empty battery, can do the same. Although after a few times the camera will not start at all.

hit the DISP button. else the lcd screen is bad and needs repair

See pages 57-58 of the manual: http://gdlp01.c-wss.com/gds/6/0300007146/01/psa4000is-a3400is-a2400is-a2300-a1300-a810-cug-c-en.pdf

Hi, it's one of two things--if you accidentally 'protected' your files (look for a small key symbol when you view the files), then you can undo this in the playback menu or look at the SD card-on the left there is a little tab, slide it upwards, this will unlock your card. Hope this helps.

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 ).

My display and the photos are not coming out clear. They look like someone went from the top of the screen and wiped their hand down it.. Streaks

Given the age of the camera (it's at least three generations old), it will almost certainly cost more to fix it than to replace it with a current, more capable camera. The actual cost will depend on how much your local shop charges for labor and the availability of parts for a camera nearly five years old.

If you can display pictures in playback modebut screen is black in capture mode then the CCD sensor has stopped working and needs replacing.

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...
