Check your set up for Date and Time, some camera software only goes as far as 2037.

If you still have the camera in 2038 and want to continue using it, the work around solution is to reset the date to 2010 which is identical: the days are the same as 2038 and both are two years before a leap year.

The other ways to keep it going is to demand a firmware update or if that isn't forthcoming you will need to find a way to access the Matrix software directly.  Hardware manipulation can be easier but it requires self-probing.  Many people find that uncomfortable.

The easier way:  Call your tech-guy and tell him you need help with a space-time continuum issue and you need direct access.  He'll know what you mean.

Check Page 22 of this Canon S1 IS manual - not sure what model you have but the software will be similar

Drax, no contest - it's call the tech guy!!  I have no idea what language you were using but i do not recognise any of it!!!! :grin: :grin:
I cannot down load photos from my camera to laptop, nor can I use, or even see, the camera on my phone.  The time has come for professional assistance... :shocked:

Ooops!  I took my phone to a man who fixes such things and asked him to re-instate my camera on it.  I haven't been able to use it for months.  He tried everything he knew for well over an hour by which time I'd lost the will to live (I'm not renowned for my patience).  I told him to leave it and I'd buy a new one but he wanted to get to the bottom of the problem - without success!  I was getting my things together after more time passed and as I was going out of the door, I was asked if I'd dropped it.  No, only once when I dropped it down the loo but it all dried out really fast and was OK.  NO!!!  It wasn't, that was the problem...  The lens had been damaged!  I now need another phone - maybe with some sort of waterproofing.....
I HATE technology! :huh: :huh:
