Hi having problem setting date ,month ,time on camcorder . The touchscreen is not working when i press against screen

To Set Date & Time on a Xerox 3635
Press: Machine Status (hard button)
Press: Tools (on touch screen)
Press: Device Settings (on touch screen)
Press: Set Date & Time (on touch screen)

The machine will have tabs at the top

Press: Set Date
Press: Month
Enter the Month: (Using the hard buttons)
Do the same for Day and Year
Press: Save

Press: Time
Same procedure as above setting the Date
Press Save

Turn the machine off and back on for settings to take effect.

It is likely that the flex cable that attaches your screen to the main camera is bad.
Try flipping the screen against the side of the camera and see if that makes it work, if not then a repair is probably needed.

It's important to set the date and time so that pictures and videos are organized by the date taken. The date and time procedure varies slightly between camera models, but generally:

1. Turn on the camera.
2. Press the Menu button.
   If you see a Setup tab, press the Right arrow button to highlight the Setup tab. If you don't see a Setup tab, press the Down arrow button to select Setup, then press the OK button.
3. Press the Down arrow button to choose Date and Time (or similar), then press the OK button.
4. Press the Right/Left arrow buttons to move between year, month, and date. Press (or press and hold) the Up/Down arrow buttons to scroll through the year, month, and date.
   Use the same procedure to set the time.
5. When finished, press the OK button.

NOTE: If your KODAK Camera has a touchscreen, the same principles apply. Tap the Menu icon, Setup, then Date and Time (or similar).

Taken from manual:
SETTING THE TIME AND DATE
You can set the time and date on the camera as long as the battery stays in the camera. Once the battery is

(11 p.m. military time). Press SHUTTER to advance to next date setting.

Hi, I have the same Problem with my HC3. This July the screen started to go funny and then now only works once its fully opend and flipped against the body. the touch screen did not work, As I had tapes to be transfered I needed to get the camera in to play mode and access the menu. I had no choice but to gentnly removed the LCD cover and tightend the connections and the touch screen now started to work. As I move the creen forward the image goes off and once? Looks like its a common problem as I see many having thesame issue. I feel it could be a loose connection inside but cant open and loose whats left working as it is still usable without the screen.
Thanks
BUD

Hi,
To change / reset date and time touch on lcd screen, HOME > SETTINGS > CLOCK / LANG > CLOCK SET and set the date and time.
Above said is mentioned in user manual of DCR-SR42 and you can download it from Sony Support.

There is a built-in rechargeable battery in the camera and after approx 3 months it will be completely discharged if the camcorder is not used. To recharge: Connect camcorder to wall outlet using the supplied AC Adapter with the power switch turned OFF for more than 24 hours. (To keep the internal batter charged, try to plug the camera in every couple of months or attach a fully charged external battery for at least 24hrs). To set the clock: Set the power switch to CAMERA and then press MENU. Turn the dial to select CLOCK SET, scroll to the toolbox looking icon -it may say DEMO MODE next to it. Then press the dial. Turn the dial to select the desired year, month, day and then pressing the dial to set each as you go. For the tape speed go to Menu settings scroll to find Tape settings (TAPE SET), select REC MODE and from there you can change the tape speed from SP to LP. Hope this helps. I have the Sony Digital 8 Handycam DCR-TRV250 I purchased about 3 or 4 years ago (700x digital zoom etc).
