Hopefully that will fix the problem.

The CCD is bad, or the connector.

This is not unusual for many cameras. They draw quite a bit of battery power, especially if you leave the LCD view screen on constantly. You will get longer usage id you limit the use of the display screen and use lithium batteries rather than rechargables. Costs more, but you won't lose tha shot when the batteries give up.

Ebay, or download from Fuji (free) and print it out (double sided).
Lots of pages !

I've had this happen before. By chance, Do you have a CD or DVD in your Mac? Eject any disk you might have in there and try the connection again.

I have Fuji FinePix 2650 Digital camera with same problem. I can almost guarantee this is not a firmware problem. I went mountain biking a few months ago and take pictures. I take out camera and turn on. I get lines then white screen. I banged on camera and fixed it. Later a few weeks ago I turn it on and white screen. i beat this thing and get bad menu selection screen for a moment then white again. It takes pictures well and talk to computer no problem but no LCD picture. I thinking it is loose connection for LCD. Send it for repair or if you seek adventure try to fix it yourself!

Sensor failure. Washy, distorted picture. All funny colours. Replace sensor.

On this link you can find all software and updates you could wide for, from Fuji, that you could need with your camera. There never was a firmware update for this camera, So i'm afraid you won't find that on the fuji site. Support and Contact Center

there is a open source software named "test disk" you can download it  from www.cgsecurity.org and use photorec to recover your files (you must have a card reader). I hope this helps...

The date and time (and a lot more) are stored with every picture in its EXIF metadata. Any photo viewing/editing program should be able to display this data. To print this data, please consult the documentation for whatever program you're using to print your pictures. Depending on the program and printer you may print the date on the image, in the margins, or on the back.

Don't be panic. you can try some picture recovery software. You can seehttp://www.asoftech.com/recover/It tells the steps how to perform photo recovery.If above does not work, you may have to format the memory card (use quick format), and then use above mentioned software to scan again the memory card and recover your files.

i would like to know if this is fixable please anyone

Try NOT connecting your camera to your computer.The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB or FireWire). This is likely to be faster than connecting the camera to the computer, and won't run down your camera's batteries.Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system's drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer's hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or you can use any photo cataloging program such as Picasa ( http://picasa.google.com ).Make sure you format the card after the downloading.

Apparently, there is a paper tray for it.

Sound like a malfunctioning CCD-image sensor. Rare, but possible problem with your LCD screenviewer... in both cases (LCD or CCD) this isn't a job that you could solve yourself; this wrong include distorted images or abnormal colors, scratchy purple lines, blank or black pictures, and/or black videos with good sound being recorded on the camera's flash card.

I suggest check THIS LINK for additional details in this previous solutions for an Defective CCD (Charge Coupled Device) and next contact your Samsung service. I strongly suggest (taking into consideration the age of your camera) to evaluate the cost of repair versus the cost of a new camera with similar features, before making a final desicion.

Hope this helps; also keep in mind that your feedback is important and I'll appreciate your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about this answer.

Thank you for using Fixya, and have a nice day.
