BUT I CAN'T BECAUSE MY CUDDEBACK FAILED ME ONCE AGAIN!!! 30 some pics on there along a secluded travel route that may be a buck's so a good number of pics for six days. I pressed A button and waited for green light to come on and go off and then pulled the card. Got home. Inserted into computer and said it needed to format the card. AHHHHHHHHH! This is a brand new card that worked the last time around. This same thing has happened two other times. I format the cards again after the initial use with the Cuddeback (IR Capture) and nada, nothing. It doesn't work and I'm ready to be done with this camera. What a piece of junk. You could say its the cards but they are name brand, work and all of a sudden don't, even after reformatting. Where's the tylenol?!?!?

I had something happen like that to me on a new cam I just picked up. I set it up at home and took a few practice shots and thought that I had deleted them all off the card, but i had not. So when I set it up in the woods and turned it back on and tested it, it seemed to work but no pic's after the two test ones were on it! cry I threw in a new clean disk, remembered to set it to OFF first from test before turning in on and had 35 shots by the end of a 3 day weekend. Dang those little stupid details like reading the instructions! mad

Been there before. Even if the instructions don't say it, I now turn the camera off, insert the card, turn it to setup, triple-check the settings then turn it ON. Even if I am just switching cards or moving the camera from one spot to another.

There's nothing worse than finding your camera hasn't been taking pictures

Don't reformat the card! Had the same thing happen to me. There is a HSOforum I went to that allowed me to get pics off of the card. Best thing is it was free. I will check and post the web site.
I just throw the cards back in my regular digital camera and delete them.

Well when I switched out the card today, the camera wasn't off. I believe I turned if off at one point afterward while rotating the dial and then back on. It took a picture of me. The problem is, will they go onto the card? I guess I never new that Cuddebacks had to be off before you put the memory card in. As mentioned, the instructions never said anything about turning the camera off before inserting the memory card. Weird. Well, I guess I'll have to go back out sooner than I'd have like to in order to check on it. I wanted to move a blind to my new camera spot anyway. Ooof.

Yeah, I tried updating itmany times and it started the update, then stopped and ended up draining a set of batteries after the failed updates! Before this, I had a digital regular flash camera I bought for $60 and it lasted 5 years being out almost all year! The one good thing I did learn is about these photo recovery sites. We had a laptop that crashed a year back and lost all our photos for about a year and a half. I started one of those programs today and it's recovered nearly all of them - for free! So I'm glad I made this post! Ha!

I never even know what to say..... I hear so much bad stuff. I have 8 Cuddebacks. I wouldn't trade my Captures for one single camera out there! Ive used them for almost 7 years now. I just bought 3 more last week. They are hands down the best, fastest, clearest camera ive ever used. I hate the other Cudde models... and I dont like ANY IR cameras. But the Capture Flash... best out there is IMO. And there customer service has been superb for me.

Ive got some different Moultries, Bushnell, Stealth.... none of them compare.

    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
    • I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
    • reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
