REBEL T3 TO BE TRASHED

Bought a REBEL T3 last August 2014. On a few occasions the power needed to be turned on and off to get the camera on. Tonight it is now giving me ERROR 30. Found another forum with suggestions to clear problem but none have worked. This is apparently a shutter fault but I've removed the lense and the shutter is working fine. Considering the glitches I experienced before the fatal error I'd say the camera was defective out of the box. The waranty is still in effect. Problem is I'm in the Philippines until September and by the time I'm back in the U.S. the waranty will have expired. As far as I'm concerned the camera is junk not worth paying to get fixed. I'll sell off the lens and my wife says she can sell the body for scrap here in the Philippines. I just use the camera for personal photos, from now on it's going to be cheap throw-away cameras no more $300 throw away ones.

The warrenty is only honored in the US and shipping from here is not cheap. I also have no faith in currently produced electronic gear with tiny circuits and components. I'm retired from the electronics industry and am aware about the push from a small special interest group in Europe to have lead removed from solder. Without the lead content, solder used to assemble components onto circuit boards deteriorates over time limiting the life of products. I've had to repair some rack sized equipment soldered with lead free and many of the connections were coming loose. There have been articles on what a mistake it was switching to lead free solder. Of course nobody wanted to lose the European market so now everyone has to put up what a few idiots pushed through in Europe. I will not be buying any more expensive electronic cameras but instead rent when I have a special need.

  • So what happens if i drag the harddrive icon to the trash?

    I'm trying to use a new harddrive icon other than the default one... so i downloaded one and i can copy it and paste it on my desktop, but i dont want two harddrive icons...
    if i drag the original icon to the trash, and "eject" it, am i going to screw anything up?

    Hi, John,
    I am an old, unreconstructed rebel, a Confederate, and when I bought my iBook I thought it would be funny to name the hard disk after the Yankee general, Maj. Gen. George B. McClellan, who was affectionately called, as you might guess, "Little Mac."
    Would it be possible to replace the normal icon for my hard disk with a picture of Gen. McClellan?
    Could you tell me what the image size should be for fastest placement as an icon by the operating system? I can adjust the size with a "save as" operation in Adobe Photoshop Elements. I now have the desktop icon size set to "20 X 20," but that would not be much of a picture, I'm afraid.
    Many Thanks,
    Jim Chumbley

  • Adobe Stock Photos Stuck in Trash and Photoshop CS2 won't run!

    Okay, I apparently did something stupid. I'm not even sure how this happened, but I realized that Adobe Stock Photos folder was sitting on my desktop (I'm using OS X 10.5.6). I don't know when this happened and I didn't think I needed it so I dragged it to the trash. NOW I cannot run any of my Adobe software (includes Photoshop CS2, Illustrator CS2 and GoLive CS2).
    I can see the folder sitting in my trash, but it won't let me drag it back out. So, just as a test, I tried dragging out the one other file (.jpg) and I can't get that one either. I know this isn't a Mac forum, but I'm desparate and cannot find anything to help me.
    Probably I am going to have to reinstall everything and (of course) I can't find my CDs!!! Please don't get angry if I'm asking the wrong question. I've done an internet search and I cannot find any solutions.
    Thanks, Anne

    Adobe stock photos does not even exist anymore.
    Have you tried deleting your trash? I have no Adobe stock Photos on my computer and everything works. try restarting the computer.

  • DOWNLOADS FROM TRASH FOLDER

    I have founbd a further problem somewhat related to my previous posting today.
    My Windows live Mail is downloading the emails which BT has been moved to the trash folder.  Surely if they have been regarded as trash, it should not be possible for them to be downloaded.  I thought only the inbox was downloaded.
    If this is not the case, how do I stop what BT regards as trash, from being downloaded.
    Thanks again,
    Geoff.

    Have you checked your BT Mail settings? There are options to switch spam filtering on or off under "Spam settings for POP users".

  • Unable to delete file from trash because it's "in use" not locked.

    I'm unable to delete a file from trash. I keep getting the following message: "The operation can’t be completed because the item is in use."  I've confirmed the file isn't locked and I've tried renaming it but still no luck. I'm running OSX 10.8.4. Any thoughts?

    Check the 'More Like This' discussions on the right hand column.  I suspect you may find the answer there.
    Ciao.

  • Cannot delete file from trash - tried EVERYTHING

    Wow. I have an incredibly stubborn file (named :VBL followed by a bunch of non English symbols) in the trash that I cannot get rid of. I have tried all the usual methods of deleting, secure deleting, using Cocktail, and literally _EVERY SINGLE METHOD_ listed on both of these websites:
    http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/trash.html
    http://osxfaq.com/Tutorials/LearningCenter/HowTo/Trash/page2.ws
    All to no avail. There still is one file in my trash that will not go away. Any other alternatives?

    That worked!! Thank you so much. Can't believe I went through all those other methods and it was as simple as a Windows chkdsk. I wonder how it even happened that the Windows partition created an undeletable file in my OS X partition??
    it actually wasn't in the OS X partition. it was still in the windows partition but due to some file system errors in the windows partition it became visible (but not deletable) from OS X.

  • 2TB Ext. Hard Drive is corrupted?, error code -50 and then error code -35 when i try to empty out my trash

    okay so a few days ago i received and email for one of my colleagues to do some final editing to a music video. the folder contained 2 videos a rough chops and the main which was about 2-3GB which i dragged on to my external hard drive . and at the time i was trying to install a trial version of parallel lines and me being a newbie to the software i didn't know i need windows installments for it to run lol but yeah... so i was just getting frustrated with the software i kept installing it uninstalling it and then i was thinking my the problem might be because my MacHD space is low (less then 40GBs on my MacHD), so.. i installed it on my hard drive where all my important files are (I'm a graphic designer and do light video editing) video projects and many photoshop projects form 2007 and logs and just a bunch of important files in my hard drive. so because i was so frustrated with the software i wasn't thinking and i installed it on my external 2TB hard drive. and when i realized parallel wasn't working i gave up, uninstalled the program form the hard drive and for some reason when i did that and i tried opening the video my friend had email to me and for some reason it did load up but a few seconds maybe about 10sec in the video is froze and closed my media app (VLC) and when i tried opening other video files it would freeze every few minutes but those specific files i had drag in last were not playing after at least 5 secs and eventually didn't open at all so i restart my computer login and now i get scared i see that my MacBook Pro isn't reading my external hard drive so i search threw forums... i unplug from the wall plug my external hard drive back in my computer and it loaded up but when i opened my external hard drive all my files had that plank white paper icon on my folders (because i have everything organized but subject when you open then drive folder. so... i go in to my projects and nothing, i open my edited photos and nothing... my hart feels like its about to drop and i keep opening files and there is nothing in them, but in "get info" of my drive it shows that there is filled so i go to "disk utility"... i "verify disk" passes ..."repair disk" doesn't past.... i look it up in forums... so i reboot my computer and go to the safe recovery menu. go threw the same ting "disk utility"... verify, pass... repair, pass... so now i feel relieved. i login files in the ext. hard drive load up i tried again to open the files and same thing happens... so now I'm thinking its the files i drag the files to the trash and try to empty and its gone i reboot the computer and my drive didn't load up so i tried unplugin it and back in... drive comes up i notice theres trash.. i tried emptying it and i get the error code -50. and no files are popping up on my external drive and i try to repair/unmount disk and the verify disk doesn't pass and when i click repair disk it doesn't past and another error code pops up -35.... so i felt my drive alone for a few days and yesterday i go the files deleted from the trash and now I'm not getting any codes but when i try to unmount.verify/repair the disk. keeps letting my tits need to be repaired so i click the repair button another error unable to unmount volume to repair...
    what do i do? my files still don't show up. and I'm very sorry for the long paragraph but i have to be detailed for you to understand my situation

  • Power Mac 10.5.8 Cannot Eject Drives or Send Files to Trash

    Hello,
    I'm posting to the forum for a friend. He is using a Power Mac OSX 10.5.8 with Dual 2 GHz Power PC G5 processor. The past two months he has been having issues deleting files and ejecting drives (flash drives and external hard drives). He will move files to the trash and the animation (poof of dust) and sound will occur but the actual file is not deleted. Also, when he tries to eject any drives, an error message appears stating the drive is in use by other applications. However, no other applications besides finder are open, and when I check the task manager, none are running in the background. This error has caused one of his external hard drives to become corrupted. We recently updated the computer and after the update the permissions were messed up and we couldn't even create a new folder due to insufficient permisions. We're currently running all available first-aid commands from disk utility. If anyone knows what the issue might be, please respond.
    Much appreciated, blessings.
    Isabel

    Hello,
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.

  • How do I uninstall from iMac? I keep getting malware saying my pc (wrong!) has suspicious programs, etc., even though I have drug it to trash and reinstalled several times.

    Earlier today Firefox crashed. Later a window came up, with the rest of the screen grayed-out, saying there is suspicious programs on my 'pc' (wrong because I have an iMac) and it will run a scan to see if there are any suspicious programs. I immediately quit Firefox, with an additional window popping up asking if I really wanted to quit the page, that data may be lost. I quit. I tried restarting my computer, but in opening Firefox, it did the same thing. I then tried to delete FF by dragging it from my appl. folder to trash and reinstalling using Safari. Did this several times with the same result...still get the popup window saying the same thing each time.

  • Is this a copy of my hard drive?  Can I trash it?

    Hello Helpful Apple People,
    I recently hit too many of the wrong keys at the same time and I ended up with this icon on my desktop:
    I'm not sure what it is, but I believe it's a copy of my hard drive?  (My original hard drive is still on the desktop.)  I'd like more than anything to throw it in the trash, but I want to make sure that before I do, that won't ruin anything.   Thanks.

    Thanks, Niel.
    Can you explain what an alias is and why someone would want one?  Why is it useful?

  • HT1449 Ok. I have an '06 Macbook Pro still running on Snow Leopard 10.6.8, and iTunes 10.6.1. I did everything in this article leading up to step 14. I thought I trashed the right file, now I can't access my music which is on my external drive now. Help!

    As stated in my above Subject field. I have an older Macbook Pro and I was attempting to move my iTunes media file using this article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1449
    After getting to step number 14, I "thought" I selected the correct media file to trash from my system. Now I have my correctly copied Itunes file on my external drive that can't be accessed when I reopen iTunes. How can I get iTunes to open to my new destination now? I went to iTunes > Preferences > Advanced and selected the new location then click OK, but it still won't access.
    What am I doing wrong here?

    I had the same problem and found the answer! 
    In Outlook, go to the Help menu, then Check for Updates.
    I downloaded & updated Outlook, then it upgraded my database, and everything worked out fine for me!
    Good luck!
