EOS 4000D Not Saving Photos!! Please Help.

[Thomas02]

I use my Camera about Twice a Month. Having, not used it for a month I returned to it, and started taking pictures outdoors only to discover that none of them were saving them too the memory card. My initial thought was that the fault is with Memory Card. But the card was working fine last month, when I was taking pictures, and also, I did try to switch the lock on the Memory Card as advised, but this created a error message saying something along the lines of "The Lock on the Memory Card is on." And then when I pressed the button to take a picture when the lock on the memory card was on, it wouldn't even take a Picture... I know this is a long story, but what I'm saying is, I don't think the reason the Pictures are not saving to the memory card is because of the lock on the memory card, or the position of the memory card. I think it's something else.. Can someone help. Also its not the quick take in the setting, i tried that too didn't make any difference! But the camera is still not taking pictures!?? Can someone please help??

Yeah! I think that going to the camera shop is going to be the best idea. 🙂

OK, I will have a go at Formatting the Card... (Card Completely Blank After Last Time I took the Camera Out?)

[Thomas02]

The Pictures from my Last Session were still on the Card 🙂  Yeah I will take it to the camera store and see what they say..?

Actually that's not true, the photo's from the Previous session were on the card, just not from the time I took the camera out over Christmass.. SO that's why I was hesitant to format the card... But by the way... How do you format the card?? Do you do it on your computer, by the RIght Clicking and choosing format in the drop down... or do you, use an option on your camera??

Safely download all the images from your card to the computer.

Then use the Format Card option from the camera menu to format in camera.

Also, have you disabled the "Take images without card" setting in the menu.

OK , I'll try that... can't say I've seen that option  to "Take Images Without Card...?"
