How long will the batters last on kodak m753 iv had the camera for 7 years

Every rechargeable battery has a certain cycles of charging and discharging the battery. Not two batteries have the same life time. The amount of cycles a battery can have, can be influenced by the user. If you leave a battery without charging or discharging for months or even years, the lifetime can be shortened. That is why most of the time you get warranty on the equipment, but almost never on a battery. (sometimes a warranty of 90 days is given on a battery.)
Still when a battery won't charge, you could check all the parts in the chain. The AC / DC power convertor / charger the power cable.
When the light on the charger comes on, you can assume the charger is working.
If you can charge the battery in the camera everything looks the same. As soon as the green light comes on (starts to flash slow) you can assume the AC adopter is working. The charging of a fully discharged battery should take about 4 hours.
I have two Kodak Li/ion batteries and after almost 10 years, they are still on good condition. But I also had to trow away lots of other batteries, before they were about one year of age. (I did charge them wrong, with a high current, more then they could handle)

Hello Charles, On a Kodak this age it is not going to be worth having repaired. The cost will exceed the price of a replacement camera, sorry.

Hi,

Your Kodak Easyshare M753 Digital Camera should get fully charged in less than 3.5 hours.
The maximum you can charge or keep the batter for charging is 3.5 hours particularly for your model.

If this is not the case and your battery does not get full charged or takes more longer time then there are chances your battery is worn out and may need a replacement.

However, if you are using re-chargeable batteries then you can also charge the Kodak battery by connecting it to PC/Laptop

Were the memory card is, just pull it out

Possible solutions:
Remember you need to turn the camera on when transferring.
Try a different USB outlet
Try a diferent cable
Try a different computer.

If all fails.

Hi,
this is an hardware error. I'm sorry but you can't fix it by yourself. You've to contact kodak for a repair.

go to the nearest electronic place that sells cameras they will tell you wats wrong

to remove the purple tint on your LCD screen, all you need to do is:

1. Turn the camera off.
2. Take out the batteries and wait about 10 seconds.
3. Replace the batteries with new or freshly charged batteries.
4. Remove the memory card from the camera.
5. Turn the camera back on.

If the issue is not resolved, send cam for repair. Kodak cameras have 1 year warranty

Most of the time, if you can get a sharp knife to SLIGHTLY dig into the part of the tube that is bent, you can CAREFULLY wedge the tube back out. (With the camera OFF) then when you turn it back on, the camera will reset the lens and all will be ok. I've done this with three cameras so far.... ALL involving 13-year-olds dropping them!!! What is it with 13? Unfortunately, MY 13 year-old, smacked the 2.5 inch screen, and the crystal broke... Other than a $50 part on e-bay, I'm having trouble finding a REASONABLE priced replacemement...
Sigh....
