Sanyo Xacti - Recent Questions, Troubleshooting & Support

not car moved this to camera no model told at all the batteries are no good or connections rusty on most many of these are 13 years old and sold as new by liars endless on the web . models vcp-nnn (lots ) DMX-nnn (lots) the endless list is here. what it uses inside who knows lacking model the battery is bad, or allowed to leak and damaged connectors.

I suggest altering the settings a little and if that doesn't work try using a different software to enlarge images. Such as windows photo gallery. That's not too good for enlarging just good for keeping the quality up if that isn't good enough try using a free trial of photo shop.
Hope I helped Dr Red

Yes.

This is what the Sanyo CG9 Users Manual has to say about viewing videos taken with the camera:

"About video clip files recorded with this camera
You can use Apple’s QuickTime to play back video clips on a computer.
Playback may be possible using other software that supports the ISO
standard MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 (AAC audio)."

There are many ways to view mpeg-4 videos, but the one that is recommended for your camera from the CG9 support webpage is apple's quicktime available from apple here.

If it is still under warranty, return it to the shop where you bought it.

You can restore photos you accidentally deleted from camera easily with this camera photo recovery guide. It helped me get back my deleted photos from my Sony digital camera. hope that it helps you too. Here's the link:How can I recover photos from cameragood luck!

Do a system reset. Also, make sure the battery is fully charged. Pull the battery out then replace after 30 seconds.

If the batteries died while the camera was in use, the probability is that there has been internal damage to the camera.

TRY TO DO THIS FEW STEPS & INSTRUCTION;

1. If your camera is still under warranty, the best thing you can do is to take it to the nearest official repair shop and they should fix it for free.
2. If your camera is out of warranty, or if the manufacturer refuses to repair it for free (happens sometimes if for example they suspect the camera has not been treated properly) you can try the following methods to repair it yourself.
3. First, make sure your camera has fresh batteries and it is in recording mode.
4. Remove the batteries from the camera, wait for a couple of minutes, then put them back in and turn the camera on.
5. Try compressed air. With a fine tip blow off gun and dry compressed air (20 lbs) set the tip between the lens turret and the camera body and turn on the air while moving the tip around the lens. It should remove all dust and sand. Turn the camera on and it should function fine.
6. Another method is to tap the padded USB cover part on a hard surface, for example, a desk. Sounds simple, but it works.
7. Try forcing the camera lens. Turn off the camera. Place it on the back with the lens facing up and take a look at the spacing between the lens and the lens housing. If you notice that the gap is not even all the way around the lens, the problem should be easy to fix. This type of a problem usually occurs if the camera was dropped while the lens was extended. Simply - VERY GENTLY - press down the lens on the side where the gap is the biggest. You should hear a "click" as it pops back into place. Try powering the camera back on.
8. If the lens doesn't extend at all or it extends, and then retracts again, do the following. Turn the camera off. Take the camera in one hand and with the other gently take one part of the lens and gently move it round in a circular movement. Do so with both sections of the lens. You will hear a "click" as it pops back in place. Power the camera on.
9. Another version of this fix would be to pull and twist on the largest ring of the lens while turning the camera on. Listen for a "click". If at first the focus seems to be off, turn the camera on and off and take lots of pictures, close ups and distance. Focus should slowly start improving.

There are several possible causes for "memory card locked/protected", "memory card error", or "no memory card". Some include trying to use of a 4GB SDHC card with an older camera made before SDHC format came out. Others include problems with the tiny slide switch on the side of the card, or the electrical contact switch internal to the camera. The problem may also arise from simple formatting problems if the card has never been formatted in the camera (note that this will also erase the card). Troubleshooting tips for this problem may be found at this link.

It is almost inconceivable if mechanical failure, but a little WD40 spray you can buy at any street corner inside spray can work wonders

memory card connector in camera is defective,,clean & set pins
