My camera is not working properly ,the switch to turn on stays in camera option and do not slide to play,please tell me if i can do something about it.

Hi you might want to check if your back up lights and your back up sensors are working, this can be a sign of the transmission control module not working properly. There is a controller that tells the radio to switch to camera view. Let me know what you find out.

Look at your memory card. SD cards have a slide switch along one edge. The position farthest from the contacts locks the card, protecting it from writes. The position nearest the contacts unlocks the card. If the switch is already in the proper position, slide it fully the other way and then back again.

If that doesn't work, try another card.

Take the memory card out of the camera and look at it. SD cards have a slide switch along one edge. The position farthest from the contacts locks the card, protecting it from writes. The position nearest the contacts unlocks the card. If the switch is already in the proper position, slide it fully the other way and then back again.

Look at the memory card itself. SD cards have a slide switch along one edge. The position farthest from the contacts locks the card, protecting it from writes.

Your camera's function switch fails(the slide switch at the top,POWER, REC and PLAY select switch). If you have background in repairing, you can clean that switch from the inside with contact clean. Coz what you see in the outside is just a knob, the switch is far inside. Take a lot of care when opening, avoid stress on flexible wires. Good Luck

Make sure you have set the camera to the appropriate mode under the Set Up Menu -- choose NTSC or PAL (for USA it should be NTSC.)  Ensure the proper connections are made to the TV -- Yellow to Video and White to Audio (the camera plays music to accompany your photos).   Make sure your TV is tuned to the proper video channel, which is usually 3.   Now you can turn the camera on.  Now go under the Playback Menu and choose the folder your photos are located in, usually "Current" Now, since there are quite a few options from here, check on page 75 of your manual under Slide Show, and you will see the various options available, such as choosing the music to play.
