My lens cover won't close when the camera is turned off. I am constantly getting a warning message that the lens cover is not open fully and to turn the camera off and then on again. When I do this, nothing happens.

Try this as a last resort. This blog post outlines repair procedures for a stuck lens covers. An A400 is used as an example. But for the A620, you might want to extend your zoom all the way out before removing the camera's batteries. Also you'll be applying the ring loosening rubbing alcohol along the barrel's perimeter instead of the front as shown in the procedures.:

I also found that I couldn't operate the camera in play mode. There is a section of the troubleshooting guide that says that the "The cassette compartment cover will not open or it stops halfway while you insert or remove a tape." According to the guide the solution is one of the following:

- Battery pack is exhausted. Replace or charge the battery pack (pg 17).
- Attach the battery pack correctly.
- Use the compact power adapter.

I removed the battery pack and unplugged the power adapter, then plugged in the power adapter/re-installed the battery pack and could get the camera to operate in play mode, but when I tried to eject the cassette the camera it would not only "not" eject the casstte but it also stopped operating in play mode. I'm going to try letting the battery charge to see if that helps.

Had the same problem myself but discovered that I had previously moved the inside flap down when I put the ink in. I moved this back into position and bingo! (If you make sure all the covers are closed then look into the printer where the paper exits you will see the flap that moves up and down, this must be in the up position)
