Your problem may be due to weak/worn out batteries or corrosion on the battery contacts inside the camera which can prevent the full power of the batteries from flowing into the camera. Try this free fix before you do anything else: remove the batteries and wipe the camera contacts firmly with a dry cloth (heavy corrosion may require cleaning with a wire brush, steel wool, or sandpaper). Remove any residue that may have fallen into the battery compartment during cleaning, then wipe both ends of the batteries and place them back in the camera. This cleaning clears the problem about 90% of the time. If it doesn't work for you, your batteries may need to be replaced, or the camera may require professional repair.

My Stylus 7010 freezes when I press the shutter button in camera mode.

Try factory resetting it. Use then user manual for how to factory reset... Else you can call up customer care for a service centre location near you and if its in the warranty period you probably won't be charged.

I have a olympus 7010 digital camera. everytime i try to turn the camera on, a orange light flashes and turns off. i've tried charging the battery numerous times.

The Olympus Stylus 7010 has a rechargeable lithium ion battery that will eventually wear out-- your battery could be at the point where it does not hold a charge any longer.
Have you previously noticed a degradation in battery life? If so, you can try replacing the battery or connecting the camera to a constant power source (like an AC adapter) to troubleshoot.

When I go to turn on my camera it makes several beeps and shuts off. I bought a new battery and that didnt seem to fix the issue. I can hit the menu button and it briefly turns to the M/DD/YY screen and...

Make sure that the battery is fully charged and hols a good charge on it . This is very important as the fault relates to a poor charge or poor battery charge retaining. If you have confirmed that the battery does have a good charge present , the check the terminals for any crusting/erosion . If so use a good cleaner to wipe off the crusts and polish the terminals.
Now set the battery and try to put the camera to a manual mode- disabling the flash. If the camera works then the flash unit can be short and is draining the battery. If not the camera has some regulator in the circuit it can be short.

I didn't turn off the camera before taking out the battery. Now it wont turn on after reinserting the component. What can I do? The camera is the stylus 7010

Try to plug it into your computer using the usb cable and turn it on from there. If it doesnt work, fully charge the battery and try inserting it again after an hour.

I have an Plympus Stylus 1040. is the battery charger supposed to blink while charging?

Hi,

Yes, you are right.

The charge indicator light will keep flashing till the battery is fully charged.

The card access lamp on the olympus stylus 7010 blinks and then the camera powers off. What might the problem be?

Does it work in picture review mode? If so try turning the camera off and pushing the lens assembly in towards the body of the camera, otherwise, is the battery charged? Does anything come up on the screen?

Batteries are charged, flash doesn't go off and camera shuts down, ready light blinks amber, then read and then shuts down

Since the flash requires lots of energy it sounds like you have a battery problem. 1. Make sure you will install a new or fully charged battery/batteries into your camera. Please use lithium batteries Ni-Mh or rechargeable Batteries (2000 M.Amp or higher). 2. Clean the battery contacts. a. Remove the battery/batteries and the memory card from your camera, then wipe the battery contacts with a soft, clean cloth. b. Reinstall the battery/batteries into your camera 3. Turn on your camera without the memory card. (If it works then it?s your memory card that is faulty)

Olympus 7010 shuts down in picture mode - not a battery problem

I will tell you how I did it for the same price you were going to charge me for a solution. To ask how I did it once I found a solution without a fee goes against your business model.

Camera problem

Make sure that the battery is fully charged. If the problem still occurs, take the caemra with your proof of purchase to any authorised Olympus repair shop and they will repair it for you. Provided you haven't taken it to the beach and got it sandy or wet or spilled soda pop on it.
