Hello, This is a problem with the back-up battery on the camera. Inside of it, near the mainboard there is a small coin like battery that powers on a memory chip storing those data. As it is empty or has a problem with it's connector to the mainboard, it could need to be changed. If you want I could instruct you on how to dissasemble the camera but I strongly don't recomand a DIY repair because in the process you might damage the lens assembly wich is a verry delicate mechanism. Any camera service will do the job fine and quicklly. It isn't an expensive repair neither and it's the safest way. Please reply if you need more info.

How do I get the date to show and stay on the pictures I take.
You need to set the date using Set Up menu and you must remember to reset it after you change the batteries. Have you done that but still don't get dates on pictures?

No internal battery. After the batteries are in the camera for 2 hours, there is enough charge in the camera to hold on to settings for 6 hours. If you take longer than that to install fresh batteries, the settings are lost. Here's what the manual says:

DATE/TIME

DATE/TIME

OKOK:At the time of purchase and after leaving the camera for a

long period with the batteries removed, settings such as the

date and time are cleared. Once the AC power adapter has

been connected or the batteries have been installed for 2

hours or more, the camera settings will be retained for

roughly 6 hours even if both sources of power are removed.

CHANGING DATE. SET DATE INCORRECTLY WHEN USING 1ST TIME
I understand that you wish to change the date on your KODAK camera.;
Please go into the menu, camera settings, date and time.

You can also reset the camera: Take the batteries out for longer than 10 sec. reinsert and the camera automatically asks you to set date and time.

The date will not stay set. Every time we turn the camera on it opens with the date screen. We set the date and it then goes into shoot mode but the date is not set. All pictures are stamped with the...
to keep the date on, you have to leave the camera off with a charged battery for 24 hous to charge the inner battery that keeps date on. If this doesn´t solve the problem then is because the inner battery won´t charge anymore, but it will take pictures as normal without the date. To avoid this don´t leave the camera too long without use or with a worn battery.

Can't change date or time on my new Pentax K2000
Date/time are set at "first use" or through the tools menu.
Remove the batteries.  Leave the camera overnight, this may be enough to lose the current settings and allow setting new date/time.
Press Menu button.
Press right arrow on the 4-way controller to get the Tools (spanner) highlighted.
Press down arrow to get to date (or time).
Press right arrow
Now set to your preferred format.

If this does not work, try changing another item in the Tools menu.  If that change is not accepted, then it's into the dealer.

Date and time will not stay set
Have you changed the CR2016 clock battery? See the picture and sentence at the bottom of the following webpage:

http://www.steves-digicams.com/2003_reviews/a300_pg2.html

It's a common battery, available just about anyplace that sells batteries.

Samsung S630 date gets reset while changing the batteries
It is really NORMAL that the date will be reset to the Manufacturer's date whenever you are changing batteries.

For you not to keep on changing the date and time of your camera, use Rechargeable batteries for a longer battery life span but make sure that you will be setting the battery type of your camera for the Rechargeable ones.

To set the correct battery type.
- Press on MENU button
- Press on the right button until you see SETUP 2
- Scroll down until you see BATTERY TYPE
- Select ALKALINE if you're using NON-RECHARGEABLE
- Select Ni-MH if you're using RECHARGEABLE
- Press on OK/MENU button for changes to be saved

Turn off camera after the settings
have been changed to refresh the camera.
