Replacing a part on my Canon PowerShot A610 Digital Camera

Canon Support Drivers PowerShot A610

OK, long shot, but you never know. Press the top cover dowsn when you shot a photo. If camera is not powered off, then fasten the 3 screws that you may find at the top of the batteries housing unit.

Hi,

The option to format the card should be in the camera's menu.

To do it properly consult the manual.

Other than that you can pop the card in a card reader, connect it to a computer and format the card that way.


Regards.

Try the solution posted by frozen80 at http://www.fixya.com/support/t295396-canon_s2_black_screen. It fixed my Canon PowerShot A610 black screen (closed diaphragm) problem.

make un full reset.........i don't now ...how

No luck so far. some idiot copied an pasted my posting as a solution. thats it so far. if ya figure it out let me know

My camera stopped working some time later after being dropped.
If you are brave (or desperate), try this... I found it was not too difficult to open the camera up. Take all the screws from the bottom, sides and under the card and usb, and inside the battery compartment. They are all different lengths so keep some record of what goes where. Then I made sure the multiway connector underneath the top was firmly in place. That was all I could see that I could fix myself. And what luck! when I put it back together it worked.

hi maria
1:plug the USB cable in the camera body on the lefthand side, and plug outher end to USB point in computer body ,then turn the camera power on , a menu will apper on the computer screen then follow a simpel instruction .

or they may offer to repair it for you.
