1. Recharge the battery 2. Take the lens off and clean the contacts on both camera and lens with a lint-free cloth 3. Pray Tried all that, even prayed ;) no luck still continuously trying to focus with no luck in any mode :(

Had you set the camera to only focus with the back AF button? I've thought the same as you before now and that was the reason.

Kr autofocus problem
As the focus isn't settling it sounds like an issue with the camera, however several possibilities to consider: 1. I'm sure you're not, but are you trying to focus on something like a plain wall that confuses the focussing? 2. Can you focus the lens manually? 3. Something else to check, has the v...

Hopefully that's solved it, if not, when you focus manually, can you actually take a photograph? (Sorry, you've already answered that in the affirmative.) Another probably silly unhelpful question, what lens('s) are you using? Its not unknown for the motors in some lenses to fail should the lens a...

I would have expected that Live View should work: In Camera Menu 1 set AF Mode = AF.S. In Camera Menu 3 select Live View and set Autofocus Method to the black and white circle (contrast detect). In Spanner Menu 1 make sure that Beep is set to audible. In C Menu 2 see that AF.S setting is 1. Pre...

Check the AF/MF switch on the side of the lens mount fully one way then the tuther, also with lens off make sure that the screw for the auto focus making sure it extends retracts as necessary.

I am experiencing same problem, does anyone have any idea? I've been using a 9 year old pentax k-r. Recently it stopped focusing with af. When I press the focus button it does activate the motor and try to focus back and forth few times then it stops without focusing. When I switch it to MF...

'A' lens won't go below f4 (even though it can go to f2.8)
Okay another test this evening seems to have found the problem. As some suggested it was the contacts on the lens. It seems that one of the pins (the one that makes the camera think the lens is f2.8 instead of f4) isn't electrically connected to the bayonet. Easy enough to check with the multimeter...
