Ok I've had my camera our for a while. Tried new cards and the batteries are good.
Last night set it on the kitchen table should have had 100 pictures
And onlyhad 9. Can it be fixed or just throw it away and buy a new one.

I'll take it before you throw it away lol but really I don't know buddy.Maybe it's just a lemon.

Test it out. See if it takes pics of you and at what ranges. Could be battery or card issue or could be the camera itself. What kind of cam?

With some cameras, you can do a hard reboot and it will clear up some problems. But, my experience has been once they quit working, that is pretty much it. You can sell old defective trail cams on Ebay from about $20. I think folks use the cases and parts to build homebrews AND some people use them for decoy cameras.
