Rebel T3 not taking pictures, yellow light flashing, please help!

My Rebel T3 won't take pictures.  A yellow light flashes on front, but nothing else happens.  I've tried replacing the battery, changing the mode, but it still won't take any pictures.  It was working just fine yesterday.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I actually did try that.  And this is going to sound like I'm totally stupid, but I figured out my problem. 
Somehow I must have bumped the timer setting.  I've never used the timer before, so I didn't realize it made the yellow light flash.  And I wasn't just sitting there waiting to see if it would take a picture. 
So anyway.... problem solved.  I feel dumb, but putting the solution here just in case anyone else has the same problem! lol

  • Rebel T2i not taking pictures,

    Camera fails to record picture, will not display preview (blank screen) and there is a red light lit on the reat of the camera. Might this be a card or camera problem?

    What type of card are you using? Did you format the card prior to using it?  Are you shooting RAW or JPEG or RAW + JPEG? What are your exposure settings?
    The red light on the back of the camera could mean that it is busy trying to create the image. If it takes a long time, that could indicate the card is not fast enough. Also are you shooting in continuous mode, taking numerous images fast? The buffer could be full, and it's trying to write to the card.

  • TS1410 My older iPod is not recognized by iTunes. A yellow light flashes.

    My older iPod is not recognized by iTunes. When plugged in a yellow light flashes. When unplugged and turned on, I see green and yellow lights flashing alternately. Help?

    The Jaguar there is nothing you can do, and the new interface from the dealer are not compatible
    For the BMW, you have to find out what brand interface was installed in the vehicle
    can be dension or original BMW  in the x5, if dension you can get something call
    Scosche passPORT if  BMW brand you can get a new cable from Bmw with the usb and dual power supply,
    In the Mini if DIce brand you will need a new cable or new iPod interface, now they have a usb plug to do updates in case iPhone 5 is release in the future or any other updates from iTunes

  • EOS Rebel T3 not taking quality pics

    I have a 2 yr old Rebel T3. When I first began taking pictures I was very pleased with the quality, clarity and vibrant colors. It seemed every shot was a great one! Within the last 8 months or so... My pictures look "blah"... The color saturation is not as vibrant. The contrast doesn't seem right.. And more of my pics are turning out somewhat blurry or just not as sharp. I've cleared the settings to return to factory settings. Is something just getting worn out from my camera because of use? I've taken over 5,000 pics with it.
    Is it the photo card? Do I need a better quality card? Or does the lens or camera that just need a tuneup?
    Love my camera...it's only 2 yrs old.... Don't want to have to buy a new one

    I doubt it it has anything to do with being "old". Try to change Picture Style for the look you want. Neutral and Faithful will provide most natural result but will lack of vibrant and clarity.  Landscapes, Portrait, Standard will be more clarity and vibrant. Or you can use custom style to pump up saturation, sharpness as you'd like.
    However, blurry photo could be due to lens malfunction or user error. I have used my Rebel (the original one) for 5 years, and took over 50,000 photos and it is still good besides the battery. My 30D also more than 6 years and over 100k and still doing fine. 5000 photo over 2 years is not a lot, not even consider fair amount. People do shoot that in a day or two.

    First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:

    Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
    You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:

    i am having trouble with exchange account connection .the vpn connects fine but the exchange account is still showing the yellow light .can anyone help?

    I had a similar problem.  Here is how I resolved the issue.
    1.  Remove Network Connect
    2. Run Terminal and remove /usr/local/juniper and everything within the juniper directory.
    3. Reboot the machine and reinstall Network Connect
    4. Test if you can now connect.
    During removal, you may encounter permission denied error, you will need to change the permission to 777.  For example "sudo chmod 777 nc".

    Clifton I must disagree with you on the above statement. It is my opinion and experience that you should never connect the camera directly to any computer, Mac Windows Whatever.
    It is always best to Remove the memory card from the camera and put it in a card reader, whether an external reader or one built into the computer, to copy images from the card.
    Hi Shootist. I would be interested in hearing some reasoning on this. I almost always use a USB cable to connect my camera to the MBP for transferring pictures, and have moved about 30,000 this way over the last 6 years since my photography went digital. Recently, on the rare occassions when I have only a few to transfer and I was too lazy to go for the cable, I have used the card reader; about half those times I have difficulty getting the MBP to recognise the card. I find I have to press the card very hard into the slot for it to be recognised.
    My rationale is quite possibly wrong, but I feel that the USB connectors are more robust and hard-wearing than the flimsy connectors on an SD card. Also, I haven't measured it, but I think the data transfer is faster with the cable. (I just came across this test, which reports noticeably faster transfer for cable than built-in card reader, but the computer was a PC)
    Chiara, sorry for hijacking your thread.

    I just purchased this movie on Thursday, May 15, so just a few days ago.  I have never had any trouble whatsoever since I have been in Vietnam.  I have downloaded several movies and even music and they have all synced to my respected Apple products except for this purchase. 
    Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean by studios and different versions.  Could you please explain? 
    I checked my purchased list in my purchase history under my account and there are no hidden items.

    try another cable it's a std cable that most consumer electronic use
    if that does not help then I would try to connect it by a microUSB cable to see if I could restore the firmware from a computer running itunes
    if that does not help then I would say that the appletv have died
