When i switch on my camera up appears a black screen with a red square and written in red inside is write protect with an exclimation mark. I have read the manual and it tells me how to protect files but not how to undo the protection.I cannot take any photos and it won't let me delete any photos on the camera or plugged into the computer. Can you help? Thanks Kim Ingram

Olympus Stylus 1010: My lens is stuck.

I've tested the battery and it is fine. I've removed the memory card and held down the function button while turning the camera on. This hasn't solved the problem - the lens is still stuck. What else can I try?

the camera is really old though like 17 years old. i think the problem is in the battery itself because it's not charging as well

Olympus Stylus 1010: dark mark in view and on photo

Wed, 04 Mar 2015 22:11:51 -0700

When looking through the view finder there is a dark mark which also shows on the printed photo. It is not something on the lense. I figure it is dust/dirt inside. How do I clear this away? Camera works fine.
