I had this occur several times before a conversation with a techy suggested that the memory (SD) card might be too slow and causing the camera to lock up. I replaced a 4GB Class 2 card with an 8GB Class 4 card and have not had the problem, so maybe this will work. Good luck.

I just got my camera back from the Cannon Factory and they said found that it was an internal issue, they replaced "something" and sent it back and it works just fine! Sorry this isn't a more helpful post for those of you without a warranty! I'll keep looking through my paperwork at home and see if they were more specific AT ALL in stating what the mystery "something" was that didn't work. Just wanted to update as I promised I would!

Make sure that when you set it up for use that you go into the camera settings and enable the remote for "quick response." I've noticed that when I go to long without using the remote it enters a stand by mode and I have to re-enable it again. If that doesn't work then you might need to change the battery. Happy shooting!

What I have found it to do is.... when it senses No activity, it goes in stand-by mode, then restarts another recording session when activity is present. I have had up-to 14 separate sessions on a SD card. I use a 8GB card with plenty of memory left over!

Sorry, I can't be much help. I can't remember if that's the same problem I had. I know the ink cartridges were stuck on the left side. I researched and found out others had the same problem. I don't think I had the printer more than a year and a half. I contacted Kodak support and they had no solution that wasn't going to cost me a bunch of money, so I junked it, after trying to take it a part and fix it. This was obviously a technical malfunction not due to normal wear and tear.Kodak should have owned up and fixed it for free. I'll never buy another Kodak again!

I thought I had the same problem but it seems that this particular type of camera is just a piece of junk. Sorry you got stuck with this!!

I got that too. I kept trying to insert and reset. Finally it said "formatting" and that was the last she wrote, i.e., the camera froze there. Packed it up and returned it the next day. I bought a (slightly) used Flip on eBay. I know opinions differ, but I had used (and loved) a Flip for years, had broken the lens and was looking to replace with something newer... hence the Kodak, which I found was shabbily made. Now back to another Flip. Even though Cisco dumped them, the Flip videos import as mP4's, and for my purposes, that works great and couldn't be happier with my new (used) Flip. Good luck!

I had same problem. Took it all open and nothing was there. Called company for help. She told me to do same as online instructions which didnt solve it. Then the cartridges wouldnt move anymore and her solution: replace it. OFFERED REFURBISHED ONE FOR $88.Mine was 13 months old. Why would I want another inferior product? It is in the trash and I bought a new Epson. Never to buy Kodak again.

you need to contact Kodak and tell them your power cord was not included in your order-they should ship it to you!

The one I bought in February for my daughters birthday is having the same problem. It will not turn on at all. Sent an email to Kodak today to see if they have a resolution. The thing is only 6 months old and she has used it only a handful of times. Quite frustrating, as she wanted to use it on our vacation.

try rebooting it by unplugging it for 30 seconds then plug it back in and start it to see see if that helps. Part of the problem is that when it jams all the way to the left and is not accessible because of the cover it is under, so you can't do anything with the printhead or the cartridges.

Ours stopped working as well. We tried contacting Kodak to fix it but navigating their customer service process requires the patience of a saint. No wonder Kodak is going bankrupt! We bought a more expensive brand thinking it would be higher quality, but I guess we were wrong.
