I can't figure out how to unprotect my pictures. I want to delete them and can't.

Mystery cameras are always a problem, but this looks like the Sony camera question I just answered a few minutes ago.

You need to connect it to a computer and then you can take off everything that is on the camera and take the camera to a Sony Service Centre for repair. Download the Software and Drivers.

If you want to delete ALL your pictures, the easiest and best way is to format the card. In fact, the card should be formatted each time you finish downloading your pictures to your computer. FixYa is full of people asking how to retrieve pictures from cards that haven't been formatted regularly.

Please unprotect the images and try to delete the files. I have attached the Manual of the Camera where you can get the instructions to unprotect the images.

Please refer to page # 43 of the above Manual to unprotect the images.

You can download the manual from the manufacturer's web site here:

Hi!
The focus is stuck. Contact your local Sony service center, but if they ask too much, you can contact me at [email protected] and I will give you a good price.
I work in Sony service center.

You don't have to do anything. If you don't have a memory stick in the camera then all pictures will be saved to the internal memory.

Your quality setting is probably set to the E-Mail quality. This makes the video low quality and tiny.

Just press the button that you use to delete pictures with the regular screen on and change the image quality.
