New camera dies Rebel t5i with old and new battery

Camera is 12 months old and the original battery appears as if not holding a charge. After charging, the camera will come on and die when pressing the shutter button to take a picture. I purchased a new battery, charged it and the same happens again. Seems that maybe the old battery may not be dead after all. Could this be the charger or is this a camera issue. If a camera issue where do I go to get this looked at. Bought camera at best buy. You think this caliper camera would last longer than a year???

Are there any third party components involved in charging or using your camera?  Did you, for example, add a 3rd party battery grip?  
I ask, because just occcasionally we'll get this sort of question where the camera fails to perform as expected but the person seeking help didn't mention the 3rd party component.  Once we find out about it and eliminate it from the test... suddenly the camera works fine again.
Canon factory batteries tend to last many years assuming you are using the original Canon charger (I do NOT like to use "fast" chargers as they stress the battery trying to charge it in a hurry and shorten it's life.)
When you insert a freshly charged battery and power it up... does the rear LCD screen come to life and, if so, do you see the battery charge level indicator showing that the battery is full?
This may be a problem with the camera itself and/or with one of it's cut-off switches.  There are two micr-switches will cause the camera to immediately power down if they are not engaged.  One is on the battery compartment door.  The other is on the memory card door.    If you power up the camera then VERY SLOWLY open these doors, you should find that you can open them about 1mm and then the camera will power off.  If you barely touch the door and the camera shuts down, then it may be that you have a bad switch.  Make sure the two doors are undamaged and able to close easily without any obstructions (if they aren't fully closed, it would make sense that your camera spontaneously shuts down.)
You may need to contact Canon service for help as there's no "setting" that would make the camera do this.  The T5i is a good camera, but it's just possible you have a problem with yours -- it happens and it's not an indicator of low quality.  I bought a new car that had a water pump failure within the first 5000 miles (that was a shock) even though everybody else with the same model car didn't have a problem with their water pump.  It happens.  Could they increase quality control to the point that it'd be very hard to get a car released with a bad water pump?  Well... they could improve build standards, testing standards, and inspection standards... that would REALLY drive up the price tag of that car... and just occasionally they'd still get a bad one anyway.  You can never get quality to 100% for any product.

  • I have PE11, new camera Canon Rebel t5i, in raw format, "not supported by installed version of raw".

    I am using Photoshop Elements 11, using WIndows 7 Operating System. I have a new camera Canon Rebel T5i, and having problem viewing images in raw format (cr2).
    Message in PE11, states, "Camera model not supported by installed version of Camera raw."
    Canon software views images.
    Suspect my minimum camera raw plug in version does not support this new camera....
    I am unable to locate in the software any menu item that allows me to view the camera raw plug  in version.
    Appreciate any support from our Adobe forum.

    At least one person was able to get ACR 8.3 to install into PSE11 using the direct-download link for ACR 8.3 CC  on Adobe’s blog, so you might try that:

    After downloading, if on Wndows, unzip the setup.zip to somewhere, like your Desktop, and then run the AdobePatchInstaller.  I expect there’s a similar process for Macs, but I don’t have one so cannot advise, specifically.

  • Best Airport Extreme Wireless Radio Mode with Old and New Macs and PC

    I'm running Airport Utility 5.3.2 and am running / connecting to the Internet with a new Airport Extreme 802.11n Gigabit Ethernet (the new squared off one) with "Version 7.3.2".
    In addition to my new MacBook Black (which has 802.11n, I have two other older Maxs that run 802.11b/g (and also a PC that has 802.11.b/g/n).
    Currently, the Airport Extreme's "Wireless" "Radio Mode" is set to
    802.11n (802.11b/g compatible)
    But, reviewing the Radio Mode menu, I see there are a number of choices that seem "faster" - 802.11n only (2.4 GHz), 802.11n (802.11a compatible) and 802.11n only (5 GHz).
    Can I set the Radio Mode to any of these other settings and still have my older Macs (and the PC) connect to the internet using this Airport Extreme? Or, do I have to leave my Airport Extreme Radio Mode set to what appears to be a slower speed 802.11n (802.11b/g compatible) setting to allow others to use this Airport Extreme Base Station?
    FWIW, I do have an older Airport 802.11g version 5.7 still connected and set up and the older computers can / could connect through that. However, I was hoping to give that one to a friend for their use elesewhere and wanted to have only one Airport Extreme set up at my house.

    "you'll use N+B/G at 2.4 GHZ."
    I guess you means that I should continue with my current setting on the Airport Extreme - which is "802.11n (802.11b/g compatible)" - if I want all my computers to access the web via the Extreme. Correct?
    I'm too much of a novice to try a "bridge" mode setup.
    However, your suggestion (I think) "It would be more reliable and faster speed if you could connect both routers to using ethernet" does give me hope.
    My Verizon Fios modem is actually a router. Indeed, I have my TiVo box connected to the Fios modem/router.
    If I connect BOTH of my Airport Base Stations to the Fios modem/router and then do the following:
    (1) set the newer "Extreme" Base Station to "802.11n only (5 GHz)" and
    (2) keep the older Base Station (running 802.11g) as is
    then my (and others') newer computer(s) with 802.11n can connect at high speed via the Extreme and older computers can still connect using the older Base Station.
    Correct?

  • To recover a database with old and new datafiles.

    Hi;
    Please Give a Solution for the following problem.
    First I shutdown the databae.
    Copy all the redolog,control file and Datafile except one.
    One datafile i miss at the time of copy.
    Then I start the database and do some transactions.
    At that time my system tablespace has been corrupted.
    So i copy the old backup and overwrite with the actul file.
    So one file backup is not there, that i forgot to take.
    At the time of opening the database it shows that datafile version is higher than the controlfile.
    Now what i did is came to mount stage and type the following command.
    ALTER DATABASE DATAFILE <FILENAME> OFFLINE DROP;
    After that i open the database.
    Now the problem is that missing file contain very important data.
    Is it possible to recover the data?
    Please give me an immediate solution.

    Is the database running in archive log mode? Do you have any export dump files for the data in question?

  • Problems with Old and New Appraisals (switch HAP00 / REPLA)

    Hello Experts,
    I'm working on a HCM Global implementation and my country is joining now, and there are others countries that have already been there since 2002.
    Through of switch HAP00/REPLA (transaction OOHAP_SETTINGS_PA), it is possible enable the use of Appraisal Systems subcomponent (Old Version) or Objective Setting and Appraisals subcomponent (New Version).
    The others countries are using the Old version and we need use the New version.
    When I activated of switch to flag u201CXu201D and after I tried create appraisals to employees through transactions APPCREATE or PHAP_PREPARE_PA, I could see only the new appraisals forms templates that Iu2019ve created through transaction HAP_CATALOG_PA and I could not see the old ones  that I created through transaction OOB1.
    After this problem I have tested activation of switch HAP00/REPLA and the screen in infotype 24, tab Appraisals where appraisee changed after the switch was activated, in other hands all the Appraisals on tab  u201CAppraisals where appraiseeu201D disappeared and the columns are totally  different comparing to old version.
    My question is how can I activate (flag X) the switch HAP00/REPLA and without losing the existing Appraisals on TAB u201CAppraisals where appraiseeu201D in Infotype 0024?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Lima,
    The old appraisal system only supports appraisal templates with object type BA where as the new template uses object type VA. It is therefore you cannot view both of the appraisals in one tab 'Appraisals where Appraisee' or 'Appraisals where Appraiser'.
    I suggest either use new or the old appraisal because by the time you run APPCREATE report for creating appraisals, the SAP systems queries the table OOHAP_SETTINGS_PA to identify which appraisal system is used. Based on the selection made in this table, the system opts for the settings.
    I've went through your issue but cannot find the solution to it. It seems to be impossible.

  • BB DESKTOP SOFTWARE STOPPED WORKING WITH OLD AND NEW PHONE

    Im running 10.6.8 on my Macbook pro. The problem started with previous Mac already. The BDS starts up, connects with phone but can not backup, restore or update phone. Get the following error msg. "DBS failed, device could not be backed up. This started on my previous mac already, older version of software.
    I uninstalled, re-isntalled the software many times and in the end thought it must be by phone - BB9700. Now on new phone BB9900 and same problem. Tried again re-installing the software, dumping all prefs etc - no luck. i installed the software on a different Mac at the office running same software and the phone backed-up, no problem.
    can anyone help. what can i try.

    I guess that you are using the latest software available for BDS.
    From what I see there, this could indeed come from a corrupt file on your MB Pro.
    I would suggest to uninstall completely the BDS software and to be sure that all related files have been deleted too. This is probably the most "challenging part". If I remember correctly there is an uninstaller provided with the disk image, so use this one and then search for any other BDS file using Spotlight or the shareware "AppZapper" which is used to delete all files related to a specific software at once!
    If you say that it is working perfectly on another computer, the phone is not the cause of the problem logically.
    A good idea is also to repair the permissions on your Mac starting up from the original DVD and using the disk utility software. This will help your Mac anyway
    Hope this helps.
    Please don't forget to mark as "solved" if your question is replied and to "like" a useful reply to your post ;-)

  • My airmac no longer finds cameras.  Will find iphone, but no longer photos either. My Canon Power Shots, old and new, are as good as rocks.

    Recently my MacBook Air  does not list devices that are cameras.  It used to, but does not now.  I have recently a) used MacKeeper, b) deleted movies, photos (thousands of those spawning ones) for space, c) installed ios 7 on my iphone, d) bought a Canon Power Shot SX 170is. 
    Image Capture, Image Browser EX, iphoto--nothing gets photos...nothing sees photos residing on my Canon PowerShots (old and new) or my iphone.  Macbook Air can not find cameras.
    Help.  All cameras are rocks now.

    MacKeeper is considered Malwear and has destroyed many iPhoto libraries - read the user tip on it - https://discussions.apple.com/community/ilife/iphoto?view=documents - my best guess is that your problem was caused by MacKeeper - I suggest you remove it according to the instructions in that user tip
    to  test depress the option key and launch iphoto - create a new library and see if it works correctly with your cameras - post back with the results

    Try looking in your User folder.
    Either hold down the option key while using the Finder “Go To Folder” command and select your user Library in your home folder or use the Finder “Go To Folder” command and enter ~/Library/Mail/V2
    If you prefer to make your User library permanently visible, use the Terminal command found below.
    Show User Library
    You might want to bookmark the command. I have to use it again after every update. I have also been informed that if you drag the user library to Finder it will remain visible.

  • Combing lines in all of my footage old and new???

    I am having combing lines problem with all of my footage. It doesnt matter if it is DV,HD, or uncompressed footage. On all of my projects old and new. Could this be a quicktime thing? It has affected all of my footage. I just noticed this the last time I worked with it all was fine???
    FCP 6.0.4

    Never judge the quality of your footage on the computer monitor nor in the CANVAS or VIEWER. They lower the quality to allow for smooth playback.
    I SHOUT in this stock answer...pardon that.
    #2 Blurry Playback
    Shane's Stock Answer #2: Blurry playback
    ONLY JUDGE THE QUALITY OF YOUR MATERIAL ON AN EXTERNAL BROADCAST MONITOR, OR AT LEAST A TV.
    The Canvas shows you what happens after the codec you are working with has been applied. The Viewer shows you the material in its native format. Once you drop the footage from the Viewer into the timeline, it inherits the attributes of the sequence. If it is a DV sequence, the footage will render out as DV.
    1. Disable overlays on the Canvas.
    2. Make sure you've rendered everything (no green bars at the top of the timeline).
    Video playback requires large amounts of data and many computations. In order to maintain frame rate and be viewable at a normal size, only about one-fourth of the DV data is used in displaying the movie to the screen. However, the DV footage is still at full quality, and is best viewed thru a TV or broadcast monitor routed thru your camera or deck.

  • T.code FF7A: how to see old and NEW open items?

    Hi All,
    I've filled the "Cash Managemeng Group" in the master data of a Customer.
    The report Cash Manag.& Forecast doesn't update its old open line Items.
    Only the documents successive to the insertion of the "Cash Managemeng Group" in the master data are updated in the report.
    Could anyone tell how to obtain all the items (old and new) in the report?
    Thanks
    Gandalf

    There are a couple options depending on the additional details of your situation....
    Within t-code FDFD, there is a button labeled Data Setup.  This button is intended for use when cash management (CM) is activated for an existing company code and CM needs to be updated with transactions created prior to the activation.  It deletes all data in cash management for the Co.Cd. and then builds the CM data for all GL, customer and vendor accounts.  There are also options to update CM for other areas (Sales, Procurement, Treasury, etc.)
    Also within t-code FDFD, there is a button labeled Correct Data.  This button can be used instead of the Data Setup button, if the CM data for a particular area needs to be corrected.  This function has the following options:  All GL accounts, All GL accounts with open items, All GL accounts w/o open items (non-open item managed accounts), All Customers/Vendors, All Customers, All Vendors.
    It's best to run these functions when transactions are not being created on the system.

  • Please help me to merge two places.sqlite to get my old and New history at the same time, every time i rename my two places.sqlite to see my old and new history

    Thank You all in Advance

    You can't merge history otherwise then using Sync to store the history and bookmarks of one places.sqlite on the Sync server and then disconnect.<br />
    Copy the second places.sqlite file to your Firefox profile folder with Firefox closed.
    Then setup Sync once again using that account and merge the content on the Sync server with your computer.

  • I accidently created a new apple account on my new phone, How do I merge my old and new accounts

    I had an old account but had lost access to the email. In frustration I created a new account to use with iTunes on windows. Now history repeats itself and I've a new iPhone 4 that I want to load with data from both old and new accounts. Do I need to just go to the Genius bar next time I'm in town or is there some way to log into each account, back up the data and merge to the new account?

    Actually not trying to merge the accounts, but back up the DATA i have stored in those accounts. Once I've pulled the many songs I purchased under the old account I'll burn them to something and delete the old account... and I think I've just answered my own question.
    i.e. Don't try to merge anything, just salvage music and other data (contacts, notes)
