Do you really need a driver?
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, the same way you copy any other files. Or you can use iPhoto or any other photo management program.
My Samsung Es90 digital camera's shutter is not working, plus, the batteries are fully charged but when inserted, it only last 2-3 minutes. What can I do to resolve this?
I'm assuming by "shutter" you're referring to the one inside the camera and not the cover blades on the very front of the lens.
How old is the battery and do you use the camera a lot?
Old batteries can be fully charged but can become weak and not hold that charge when the camera is powered on. The shutter issue could be part of this as the battery might not be strong enough to power the shutter.
I think the batteries for these cameras are reasonably cheap so you could invest in a new one to see if that helps. An extra battery is always useful if you use the camera a lot.
If this is an old, well used camera part do wear out so if new battery doesn't help you may need to take it to a good repairer as the camera will need to be taken apart to find the problem.
Samsung Digimax 301 will not turn on only green light flashes
- Check battery polarity: Ensure that you have inserted the AA batteries correctly, aligning the positive (+) and negative (-) ends as indicated by the camera's battery compartment. Improper battery placement can prevent the camera from powering on.
- Clean battery contacts: Over time, battery contacts can accumulate dirt or corrosion, hindering proper electrical connections. Use a clean, dry cloth or a cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol to gently clean the battery contacts inside the camera's battery compartment. Make sure to let the contacts dry before reinserting the batteries.
- Replace batteries: Even though you inserted fresh AA batteries, it's possible that they may not have sufficient power to operate the camera. Try using a different set of new batteries or fully charged rechargeable batteries to eliminate the possibility of a power issue.
- Reset camera settings: Some cameras have a reset option that restores the default settings, which can help resolve certain issues. Look for a small reset button or a menu option within the camera's settings to perform a reset. Refer to the camera's user manual for specific instructions on how to reset your Samsung Digimax 301 model.
- Firmware update: If your camera has an outdated firmware version, it may cause compatibility issues or malfunctions. Check the Samsung website or contact their support to see if there are any firmware updates available for your camera model. Follow the provided instructions to update the firmware if necessary.
