Napapete3,

When this is displayed on the LCD, that means there are no images on the card.  I noticed that you mentioned using an SD card.

Do you actually have the PowerShot A3000 or do you have the original PowerShot A300?

If this is a time sensitive-matter, additional support options are available at Contact Us.

How do I change the battery pack? How do I open the battery pack? I put new batteries into the camera and it says the battery pack needs to be replaced. I haven't used the camera in awhile and would like to download all the pictures on my several compact flash cards to my computer.

Thanks in advance.
