[@dianna21aj]

OH MY GOSH. THANKS FOR THIS !!! I ALMOST THOUGHT I HAD TO THROW IT AWAY SINCE I GOT IT A YEAR AGO

[@anaasiyah9956]

Hellooo i need to know if i put the battery without the film,is it working?like the red lights or something to be sure it still working??

[@PaolaIvelySilva]

Hi! Do you know what to do if the camera has all the lights flashing at the same time but can't take any pictures? I don't know what to do and it's freaking new

[@SamanthaChoi]

+Paola Silva did you make sure the film is in properly and lined up with the yellow?

[@PaolaIvelySilva]

Yes. It is,i can see it through the tiny window that is right aligned

[@CautionaryLove]

Miss Paola Silva That means you need to change the batteries. When the lights start flashing like that it's because your current batteries don't have enough power to power the camera.

[@sohanthapa1218]

Miss Paola Silva m

[@purple2530]

Last night i've the same problem & i dont know how to fix. I just changed to new film and wasted 10 film. And today, still wont working. Do i need to change the batteries? Please help!! I've dinner this fridayy 😭😭😭😭

[@mal_cricemsp7851]

[@nicholasgriffith7032]

if you look in the battery area for the phone it says it needs specific batters names Lr6 it is a type of AA but apparently they are the batteries that are supposed to go in there.

[@orantrabrlsy6967]

hello there I even dont know where to start, i am frustrated from this camera:(( when i first tried to use it i put a new film and new battery inside. the camera turned on and everything was looked fine until i tried to take a pic but any pick went out, suddenly the 4 lens started to flash rapidly and also the red len near the eyeview on the other side (same problem like in this vid). !!!!? so i tried to press again, and take another pic but nothing happened and the lens still flashing !! i check in the internet for a solution for this problem and i found that its a battery problem, so i went to the shop and buy 3 diffrent sets of batterys from 3 diffrent companys (Gp,Energizer,camelon), all alkaline, and tried to fix . but its not only didnt fix it its now even have worse problem:( .i cant even turn off the camera, and now only 3 lens is flashing and one len is stay always on and also the red len near the eyeview is off !! wtf !? i also remove the film set from the camera(its destroy it probably!) but still, nothing change !:( Please anyone have this problem too and know how to solve it ? I am so frustrated that i almost put this cam in the garbage! Please help me:(

[@evamariepenton]

thank you so much! I have been messing around with the batteries so much and it still was not working but now it is after I watched this!

[@Jaydenwang664]

I bought one of these a few years back and used it a couple times before it ran out of battery I replaced the batteries and left it in my closet for a couple of days we went to California we tried to take some photos but saw that it was not working I thought it was the batteries so we stopped at a shop and bought some batteries and replaced them on the car then realized that it still didn’t work so I gave up after a few years I found the camera again so I decided to know what was going on so THANK YOU SO MUCH THIS HELPED ME OUT AND IM SO EXCITED TO USE IT AGAIN ON MY VACATION TO UNIVERSAL STUDIOS❤❤

[@peterschnaubelt1903]

[@nobody-yj6wo]

If my camera won't turn on and where the thing you look through to take pictures turns red and then turns off does that mean it doesn't have enough batteries

[@nobody-yj6wo]

Nvm I held the on button for like 5 seconds and it turned on
