Have you saved all these deleted photos on the inner memory card of this digital camera?
If you have, you can try my steps to see whether your deleted photos are recoverable:
Step1. Stop using this camera in case that any new file would rewrite your original photos.
Step2. Insert this camera to your computer and prepare to restore your photos.
Step3. Download a deleted photo recovery freeware to your computer and start to retrieve all your deleted photos back:
http://blog4mark.blogspot.com/2012/12/photo-recovery-after-delete.html
In fact, this freeware has ever successfully saved all the inaccessible data of my friend off from his camera. So, I believe it can also work successfully on your camera memory card, too.
Simply read more information of this freeware here:
http://www.freeware-fix.blogspot.com/2013/02/photo-recovery.html
Step4. Save and back up all the restored photos on a different memory card or drive in case of data recovery failure.
Note: Next time, you'd better back up all your important photos on different memory cards or drives in case of the similar data recovery problems.

If you are using a memory card, take no more pics until you've recovered the photos, take the card out of the camera. This is to reduce the chance of you overwriting some of your "lost" photos. There are many good freeware photo recovery software options that are available to help you recover your photos. This blog article reviews and outlines several of the better ones.

My A540 Digital Camera will not keep date and time. I replaced all batteries.

Did you also replace the CR1220 clock battery, located behind the tiny slide out door labeled "CR1220" (see this pic)?

I deleted all pics from A540 but ended up with "no image" message on black screen. The shutter won't open either. It appears to be stuck in viewing mode.

hi,

first: be sure the battery is full charge.

second: by a compressor try to blow around the shatter and lens .

third : 3 or 4 times try to inflict a blow on the lens by your palm .

at the end see the result


good luck

I just got a new computer and need to download pictures from my powershot A540 digital camera but cannot remember what or how I once downloaded pics on my old computer. I have the usb port and need...

You can download Canon software from

You might want to consider 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. Or you can use any photo cataloging program.

I have a Canon Power Shoot A540. When I turn it on and get ready to take a picture I am getting a message "Memory Card Error". Wonder if you can help! Thank you. Bonnie Steele

It may just want you to format the card in the camera. This will erase it so download any pics you want to save first. Use a card reader if necessary.

First of all, you're not supposed to upload from the computer to the camera. You risk corrupting the card and camera. If you want to delete all the pics from the memory card, just insert the card into the camera, go into the menu and find "format" and follow the on-screen instructions.
