Olympus problems

Brenda, Although I only have a little to go on, I'll give it a try.
(only brand, not model)
Olympus camera's do have an internal memory, but just for a limited amount of pictures. When your camera says Memory full, this internal memory is full. You can place a memory card, or free memory, by deleting pictures. But don't delete a picture before you are sure you saved the picture on the computer or some other media.
If you want a memory card, check what type of card goes into your camera. When you place a memory card in the camera it has to be formatted (check the manual) but NEVER format a memory card, when you have any pictures in the internal memory, because you could loose all the pictures in the internal memory too.

My Samsung ES30 camera gives me the DCF Full error message.I tried other solutions ,such as formatting the memory cardd,I even tried a new memory card.Still the message comeup.Who know what to do?I am in...

The manual says: the files names does not match the DCF format. Transfer the files on the card to your computer and format the card.
You tried to format and it did not work. Sure the card is not locked? The lock switch should be up, so the card is unlocked an you must be able to format te card and you should be able to write files to the memory card.
Although the camera is compatible with SCHC I wonder if you did not put in a very big card. Perhaps your camera cant work with 8 or 16 GB. Is surely can't work with SDXC cards.
Did you try a normal SD card, and could you format that one?

If you just deleted the pics from the internal memory, it may still give the full message. Try formatting it while your card is out of the camera.

Took 5 pictures and camera said memory full. shouldnt it take more pictures than that?

Generally there ara two memories in a camera. First one is internal memory but some camera does not have internal memory. Second one is memory card. There are a couple of memory card models are used in cameras. These days SD/SDHC cards getting very famous in the market. According to your settings generally cameras use firstly its internal memory and automatically passes to the memory card. But if there is no memory card in camera then it gives a message that its memory full. You should control if there is a memory card in your camera.

I just bought a new memory card but I keep getting "Internal Memory Full" message. How can I fix this problem.

Your camera is supported by: Memory card support : SD/MMC up to 2 Gigabyte. If you are using any other card your camera might give you an error message such as this one.

Try to format the memory card in my camera? NOTE this will delete all existing data on your card.
Do the following:
  1. Insert the memory card into the camera. Make sure the card is firmly seated (push in the card until it clicks into place).
  2. Turn on the camera.
  3. Press the Menu button, then go to the Setup Menu.
  4. Scroll up or down to the Format option, then press the OK button

When switched on camera gives message - memory card is write prot

SD cards have a slide switch along one edge. The position farthest from the contacts locks the card, protecting it from writes. The position nearest the contacts unlocks the card. If the switch is already in the proper position, slide it fully the other way and then back again.

I'm only getting 12 pictures before I get a "Memory Full" notice

You didn't state whether or not you are using a memory card in your camera. If you are storing pictures strictly on the camera's internal memory and you have a high megapixel camera, it is quite possible that your memory is full. I have seen cameras with only 8 MB of internal memory which will hold very few pictures before giving you a "memory full" message.
