Won't charge!! I've had my NV3 for awhile and never had any problems with it. I was downloading and Photoshopping some pictures this morning for quite some time and must have left the camera on until the battery completely drained. This afternoon, I tried to turn it on and it wouldn't work. I plugged it in for a couple of hours, still won't power up. I've taken the battery out, reinserted it, tried the plug in the computer's USB and using it with the travel charger. I see the charger flash 3 different colors, then nothing. HELP PLEASE!!!

    I bought a NV3 about a year ago, couple of months just after the warranty expired, and my camera won't power up anymore. Tried charging the batteries (I have 2 rechargeable batteries) but the light first turned green, then red, and then orange (blinking). What are the odds for 2 batteries to go dead at the same time? Then I sent my camera to the service center, and they told me that the 'motherboard' is not functioning anymore. A replacement motherboard would cost around USD250. Could've get a new camera with this money. The service center probably don't know how to fix it...

    exactly the same thing has happened to me! I have used and loved my camera for months now, and when I went to turn it on one day, it wouldn't. I went home and tried to charge it, but the charger just flashed orange, read user manual and it said "charging error" but doesn't explain how to fix it. I then decided my next best option was to buy a new battery, so I did. However, when I tried to charge this in the camera, once again the orange blinking light reared its ugly head...!! Somebody help please...

Hey ppl, my camera has just doen the same, it wont charge although it works completely fine in all other cases. Ive had it just over a year. Has anyone tried using a new cable? Or is it defintely the camera thats the problem? Either was a simple solution is to buy a charger for the battery itself, one thats independant of the camera. Its not as convienient, as you need to remove the battery and place it in a stand to charge, but it does solve the problem :-D They cost about £10.

Most of the rechargetable battery if completely drained for many hours,it will kill the battery and can't charge it back again.you need to replaced the battery.

Hoover lynx won't charge

I know this question was quite awhile ago, however, I've had the same problem. I love the vacuum when it works. Bought one in October, returned it in March because the battery just stopped holding a charge. The store exchanged it for another one, and now, in May, this one has done the exact same thing . . . . wondering if anyone else is having this problem and what they did about it? Was considering switching to the Electrolux but not sure if that is any better product?

Importing pictures

Try NOT connecting your camera to your computer.


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.

My Samasung NV3 is not charging and not swtiching on.

Hello,

My suggestion is to open the battery door on your camera and remove the battery for 60 seconds. Then put the battery back in and close the battery door. Then try charging it and powering it on
