The non-functioning of the camera can be a fault in the shutter, zoom or auto focus sections and may be due to the failure of the Main control system or the drive. A simple was is to reset and we can try by removing the battery and card for some time. Now replace only the battery and while switching power ON, tap the lens hood on the palm of your hands so as to disengage any dirt or mechanism being struck. You can spray a degreasing spray on the lens hood sides and also assist the lens as it tries to come out, attempt to pull it out slowly while powering ON the camera. Also in some cases you can slid a thin film/paper on the lens hood sides to wipe out any dirt.

Tips to open and check for common faults: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2Mj3Qp3xYU&feature=related
Use some air to blow between the lenses to dislodge any sand particles struck inside. Unless you are familiar with handling of small devices must you try and open. If so check the voltage on the motor drive check the auto focus and Zoom drives, it must be free with manual movement. If jammed the motor can be removed and released. If none of these works then you can think of taking consensus with the service centre.
Get estimate before you decide. It will be good to have it checked at the authorised service as you do not have to run around for spares.

Canon S3 is will not zoom, buttons will not work, and when viewing the photos, it zooms through them quickly and will not stop!

It sounds as though it may need to be serviced. If you do need to get it serviced, here's the place: www.camerasandparts.com They just service the Canons and nothing else. They do excellent work and they are not much at all in terms of cost. You may want to try emailing them and explain the problem, I'm sure they've seen it before. Good luck with it.

I think I pushed a button [2ND][+], and [ClrAllLIsts]. After that, I tried to draw graphs, but when I push the [GRAPH] button or [ZOOM][5]/[6], it doesn't make any graph! What should I do...??

You do not say that you opened the Y= editor and typed in at least one function and THEN pressed Graph. If you do not enter a function, all you will get are the axes (if the calculator is configured to display the axes.
1. Open the Y= editor.
2. Type in a function EXample y=2X+1 (To type X press the [X,T, Theta, n] key)
3. Press ENTER to validate the function.
4. Press the GRAPH button.
5. If you do not see a straigt line press the ZOOM button
6. Select ZoomSTD

The Simmons SD5K keeps spontaneously playing songs, even when all I want to do is play my own stuff with the metronome! I turn on the metronome, set the speed, hit the pads a few times, and the music...

Press the "click" button and then set the tempo you want, press the "click" button again this will stop the metronimoe but is also sets the tempo in memory. The next time you press the "click" button it will be ready to go.

Anytime you press the tempo + or - it thinks you are trying to use the "Tap Tempo Function".

My camera does not zoom in PROGRAM AUTO,DIS MODE and MOVIE MODE. Whenever i press the zoom button, it says, "not available in these settings". how can i resolve this?

Well assuming it isn't some new problem, I'd say the message is clear, the zooming is not available in these setting.
You shoul check on the camera manual.

If this is a new problem, then go to Olympus website an look for a firmware update for you camera model, this can fix the problem, and even if this wasn't a problem they might have make this function available in some new firmware.

Hope this helps

Hi , I haVE TI84 SILVER EDITION AND i LOST THE MANUAL ON HOW TO OPERATE IT iM TRYING TO DO GRAPH AND i CAN'T CAN YOU HELP ME I

Here is the link to the manual.
Here is a short tutorial to get you started.
First thing to do before any new type of graphing problem
1. Turn StatPlots OFF : press [2nd][STATPLOT][4:PlotsOff] [ENTER]

Second thing: Clear the statistical lists
2. Press [2nd][0][PGRM] DownArrow to point to ClrAllLists.
3.Press [ENTER][ENTER]

Third thing : Configure the graph type to be FUNCTION graph
4. Press [MODE]. If FUNC (on fourth line) is highlighted. Press [Y=] and start entering the functions.
5. If FUNC is not highlighted, use Down arrow till 4th line, highlight FUNC and press [ENTER]. Press Press [Y=] and start entering the functions.

Fourth thing: Enter function and select them for graphing
1. As you start entering the function Y1=, notice that the = sign becomes highlighted. Press [ENTER] when Y1 is typed in. Make sure the = sign for Y1 remains highlighted as cursor moves to Y2=.
2. Keep entering the functions and verifying that their = signs remain highlighted as cursor moves to another equation.
3. When finished press [ENTER]
4. Look at the graph style for each function: it is a bit of line to the left of each Y. Here is a picture of all the 7 styles.

5d53e23.jpg

To set a graph style, highlight the style to the left of the Y, and press [ENTER]. Each time you press [ENTER] you see a new style, in the order shown on picture.
Avoid the style of Y6, it is bubble, and as such will burst and disappear once graph is finished. Avoid also the triangular ones (for Y3 and Y4) they will shade areas of the graph, and may hide other functions.

Fifth thing: Graph Functions.
1. You can press [GRAPH] to see your graphs.
2. If one curve is missing (and you have not set its style to be rhe bubble), it may be due to the Window dimensions.

Sixth Thing: Set Window dimensions and Zoom.
1. Press [ZOOM][6:ZStandard] to use standard window dimensions.
2. If curve still missing, Press [ZOOM][3:Zoom Out] to zoom out so that you may be able to see a bigger range for the functions.
3. If necessary press [WINDOW] and set the Xmin, Xmax, Ymin,Ymax to values of your own.

Dimensions must obey the conditions: Xmin < Xmax, and Ymin < Ymax.

How do i turn off zoom function of synaptics touch pad Hp laptop

Are you talking about the two finger zoom by spreading your fingers apart on the touchpad to zoom out or pinching them together to zoom back in?
This works for Dell touch pads so below where it says ‘Dell touchpad’ it probably says HP touchpad?


· Goto your control panel
· Click on ‘Mouse’
· Click on the ‘Dell touchpad’ tab
· On the resultant popup screen, double click on the main touch pad region
· Click on the ‘gestures’ setting
· Uncheck the zoom
Good luck…Chris
