Ive had my GoLive since black friday sale this past November. It worked fine for a few weeks but once i moved it ive had nothing but issues with it. It takes pictures every 5 to 10 min of nothing. It claims motion is triggering it by the "M" on the pictures but its not. Ive changed sensitivity from normal to low.. ive reformatted the SD card... ive even put new SD card in from spartan and still doing it. In 2 months this camera has spent more time with sensitivity turned off than on. Ive tried contacting spartan but no luck yet but i have only tried today... are there any other things i may be missing to try?

  Have you tried requesting a video to see if maybe there's a bird or small critter darting in and out? Can you post a few of the pics here so we can see, you may have to set your phone to desktop mode to see the insert image icon. To test the sensor you can take the camera and put it face down in a closet and see if it still sends the motion triggered images.

  Well i originally thought it may be birds but i moved it to my house for "security" and it started right off doing the same thing. Ive since deleted all the empty pictures and i will try the closet thing right now so if i receive pics ill try to post them. What sensitivity setting should the camera be set on for this test? Just normal? I have a spartan gocam and never have issues with it so i feel like its the camera.

  So far it seems to be working fine.. ive gone live with it and even requested for it to take a picture. I guess i can put it back outside and try again.

  I run most of mine on normal. You might have an overactive sensor. Lets see how it does in the closet
