Canon powershot 1200 stolen need serial number

My camera was stolen and I don't have the serial number to give to the police because they want to put a trace on it. I've seen on the internet that the serial number can be found in the EXIF data stored in a photo - but I can't seem to get the serial number from any of the data I've been able to pull from a picture. Any ideas what to try next??

Can't help you this time but when you purchase anything you should have a note book and write all the information in it then you would not have this problem. A lot of people do not think of these things.

SOURCE: Powershot A430 canon camera battery problem

Alkaline batteries just don't have the power for more than a few pics in a digital camera. Some may have reached their shelf life, and though brand new may even have problems just powering startup of the camera. Digital cameras for the most part should only be used with rechargeable NiMH batteries. Retailers sell these for around $7 for a package of four (about $15-19 for the batteries with charger). Keep in mind they'll save you big bucks in the long run over alkalines, AND they'll last for at least 100 pictures per charge (and probably many many more). You'll be very pleased with their performance, and may slap yourself for not buying them sooner. When at the store, look on the package for a power rating of at least 2500 mah.

SOURCE: Photo card locked and can not take pictures.

There should be a tiny slide switch on the side of the card. Merely slide this switch to the other "unlocked" position.

SOURCE: Canon Powershot A20 compatible with Vista?

Canon did not update their drivers for many of their cameras under the Vista OS. In order to download photos, you'll need to do the following. Sorry, but it's the only way:

My tomtom Go Live 1535TM was stolen at Vallejo Plaza, along redwood st and sonoma Boulevard

There is one thing you can do if you have the serial number of your device. You can find it on the device itself and on a sticker on the packaging of your device. If your device was registered to your TomTom account, you could try contacting TomTom support by phone and ask if they can give you the serial number when you provide them you're account data.
Once you have the serial number you go to the police station and inform them your device was stolen. If you're lucky, one day the police will find the gagsters who stole your GPS, and if they find lots of stolen products, they will probably check the police computer to check if the serial numbers are reported as stolen.

Lost ip address

They most likely mean serial number.
An IP address is issued by a router and can change from time to time when you connect to the router.

My Dell vastro Laptop is stolen and i dont know the MAC Address of it so that i can trace it... Plz help me finding my lappy's MAC address... I have its serial no. And also its saved as a paired...

My my that is a terrible thing to happen, the only thing I can suggest is report it stolen give the serial and information to the police more than likely I hate to say this you may have to write this laptop off and purchase another one. Tracking them is difficult once they are out of your possession. Regardless if you had the MAC address even.
If you report it stolen if the police find stolen items they can track a recovery by identifying its serial number. So doing a report would and possibly beat a blank and who knows you may be surprised one day when you get a call is this your laptop? I hope this happens for you but it will not if you do not report it and register it with the police as stolen.
Sorry for your loss really.......John

I recently had this camera stolen... and cannot, for the life of me, find my instruction manual--as it was bought 6 years ago--to give the serial number to police. I was wondering, as I have my charger for...

The serial number is not on the charger. Contact the manufacturer at their website. If you registered the camera with them, they will have the records.

My camera was stolen over the weekend. To try to find the camera, the police need the serial number. I still have the box it came in with teh manual. Is there any way to get the serial number off the box...

Hi, On the side of the box there should be barcodes, the serial tends to be a mixture of letters and numbers where as the product identifier is just numbers. If you need more help let me know.

I have had my camera stolen. I am trying to file a police report and they need the serial number. All I have left is the instruction manual and the cd-rom guide. Is the number in there somewhere?

Hi, Those wouldn't have the serial number however it can be found with your camera's EXIF data which you can get from putting the photo on Flickr or into photoshop. If you need more help let me know.

My nikon camera was stolen about 5 months ago and i wanna know if tell them what the serial number was if nikon can track it down

Giving the police the serial number will only help if it turns up somewhere such as a pawn shop. They cannot "track" the camera by the serial number.

My Canon Powershot G9 screen cover is cracked and I need to find a replacement screen cover.

Try this place: www.camerasandparts.com If they don't have it, they'll get it if it's for a Canon Powershot. They have everything for these cameras as long as it's a Powershot. If you ever need to have one of these cameras serviced, they're fabulous for service work on these as well. They are about half the price of most places and they do fabulous work only for the Canon Powershots, they don't work on any other brands. If you don't see the part on that site, they should have an email address to email. I'm sure they'll be able to help you with it since you have a Powershot.
