How do you erase pictures manually through a Smartpart photo frame?

If this is not covered in the manual or user guide, chances are then you can't. If the images are on removeable media, then delete them on your computer.

I recently got Minolta F20r. After finishing first and inserting second film roll I can't reset the frame counter (the way its written in the manual).

I just read your manual. It is confirming what I said that opening the back resets the counter. As long as it automatically winds on to the next frame after taking the shot, you can just count the shots taken. At the end of the film, the winder mechanism will make a different noise. https://www.manualslib.com/manual/1387699/Minolta-Af-101r.html?page=6&term=counter&selected=2#manual You are brave using film cameras these days. I have a Bronica ETR medium format camera, and an Olympus OM1md and an OM4 plus a Canon Zoom XL that haven't had a film through them in 20 years. Goodwill stores must be full of them. ..

I recently got Minolta F20r. After finishing 1st film roll and inserting 2nd, I realized that the frame counter stayed at 34 and doesn't move back. How do I reset it back to 1?

Opening the back should reset the counter. It's not worth repairing. Just remember how many shots you have taken. https://www.ebay.com/p/54950716 ..

Nikon N65 with Nikkor 35~80mm AF lens will not focus or shoot

N65s were notorious for bad shutter release buttons. The metal is thinner than a strand of hair and they break. Search Ebay and see if the part is available to replace (note: Nikon stopped selling parts last year).

Threw away instructions/manual for smartparts spx8

First, check the manufacturer's website for the manual. You can generally enter the model number and do a search on their website.

Second, there are tons of manual websites out there. Try: http://the-manuals.com/, http://www.devicemanuals.com/, or http://www.retrevo.com/samples/index.html but there are others if you do a Google search for "manuals" or "owners manuals."

Current file is bad message keeps coming up. I have 130 photos,

I had this problem - The problem is the way that the file was encoded after editing in photoshop. When saving it as a JPEG you must make sure that the format options are set to either Baseline "standard" or Baseline "Optimized". If the format settings are set as Progressive you will get the error "current file is bad blah blah blah"
Hope this helps.

Santek digital clock photo frame. Only has h and m button . No set button. I don't know how to set the clock

Have you considered consulting the manual or User Guide ? You may find that H stands for hours, M stands for minutes, and you press them until the clock displays the time you require.

How do i put a film on a kodak star 435 35mm? the tab to roll the film doesnt seem to work. I dont know if I am doing it wrong or if my camera is broken.

To the best of my knowledge all 35mm cameras load identically, apart from a few automatic models that claimed to be self loading. A new film cassette has a tongue of film protruding. Once the cassette has been loaded into the recess on the left and the rewind crank pushed down and engaged with the film spool, a couple of inches of film is pulled from the cassette and the tongue poked through the slot in the takeup spool - it might be necessary to use the film advance until the slot is visible. With about a half-inch of film pushed through the slot, slowly advance the film until the slackness is gone while fully engaging the sprocket holes at the edges of the film on the teeth of the sprockets. Advance the film a little more to check it is properly engaged and once you are satisfied close the camera back firmly making certain the catch is engaged and it won't spring open again. Once closed, advance the film until it stops which signals the shutter is set and is ready to take a photograph, however the first and perhaps the second frame has been contaminated with light and so press the shutter release, advance and press again and the third advance is where the photographs begin. If there is a frame counter it is best to be guided by this. Cameras that have a manual advance usually have a manual return crank that will be seen to rotate as the film is advanced. When all the frames have been used the film will be felt to come to the end. At this point the clutch button must be pressed to disengage the wind-on mechanism and the film wound back into the cassette using the crank on the left.

How to reset the locking system on a renault scenic megane 2005 after changing the batteries in the fob

You should not need to reset the locking system after changing a battery on the key fob. Did the fob ever work before the battery was changed? Try this: Press and hold the remote control button down for more than 10 seconds, the red light on the key will go out. Now press it again 3 times. Check that the doors lock and unlock correctly.
