Gateway Camera DC-T50

The screen will only show "Format Error" iin all modes.
I cannot take pictures or see past pics (If they are still there...)
I would like to know how to fix this problem, and be able to use the camera, but more importantly, I would like to retrieve/save the pictures.

    It would be nice if this site told you there was a charge and what it would be BEFORE you sign in, etc.

    I have the same format error, even after emptying pictures off the card. Usually, we just have that problem when the card is full.

Check memory card from computer with card reader.
If that doesn`t help.
Try formatting memory card from camera or from computer (it will destroy data on card).
Most likely your pictures are alredy lost.

The memory card has been corrupted. This can occur when transfering pictures to your computer or if the camera batteries died while saving a picture. Try another memory card. If it works then try formatting the original card.

Hi,

Remove the batteries wait a few minutes. Put fresh batteries back in and turn the camera on. This resets the camera.Then remove the memory card from the slot from your camera. Then insert back and check you will not be getting this error.

If still there is some problem, take the memory card out and copy the pictures from the memory card to system and then format it. Insert the card back to the camera. You won't get the format error.


Hope this helps.

If you still have any queries feel free to ask us.

Dc-t50 won't transfer pictures onto my computer

Hey roboticgirl,
What is most likely causing this are the drivers that run the included software have either been accidentally deleted or they need to be updated. I would reinstall the software that came with the camera, or you could purchase a card reader and upload your pictures to your computer that way which should not require any drivers other than the ones in your operating system. I hope this helps!

Sincerely,
Allan
