Flash will not pop up on any flash setting. Everything else works. Battery is fully charged. Flash just stopped working after 5 years of trouble-free use.
Same problem for me. The flash won't pop-up anymore, even when I select the forced flash.
Mine started to do that too. I charged the battery and then played with it taking the battery out and placing it back in and it just started to work again. Try placing it in manual mode as in shutter or appeture, rather that automatic and see if it makes a difference. These are things i played with before it started to work again.
If you are having a memory stick problem this is what i did and if fixed a lexmar 256 (2X128) stick. I used a card reader so that is came up in MyComputer as a drive. I then right clicked on it and hit format. When it ask me if I wanted to format it I had to change the configuration from 32 to 16. That is important if you do not change that parameter it will not work. Then hit format and it should start working. This will probaly work on anything 128 meg or smaller. I don't have anything larger that that. Good luck.
Did this actually fix the flash or is this a separate issue?

I'm having the same problem.... I love my camera, and no matter what flash setting I use I can't seem to get the flash to pop up. I noticed this just last week I'd really like to get this fixed - better then trying to get a new camera.
I have the same problem as well.....I noticed in the multi-picture mode (where you can view multi prints at a time), where it also shows the iso, and many others that the flash is actually turned off! But can't get it to switch back on........tried removing battery,reseting, playing with all the settings, and increasing the snap time. NOTHING worked........very interested in a solution.
