I have a Canon PC1183, 6.0 mpixels with 4xzoom. It goes thru batteries almost immediately. I ahve trouble keeping batteries in it because is usesthem up so fast. This is just a recent problem. I used to use rechargable, but I would have to rechargethem after every use, nwe rechargeables and old rechargeable. Now I use regular batteries, which does last longer.

SOURCE: Flip Mino HD battery will not recharge

I panicked when I saw all these posts but the reset did work for me. Others say it doesn't but this first time at least, it did the trick. I stuck the end of a paper clip in the little hole in where the tripod mount is (it's further recessed than the mount itself). It doesn't seem like it fits, but it does. The minoHD was off, since by this time it wouldn't turn on. When I tried to turn it on again, it finally came on with the battery in the red zone. I recharged and it appears to be fine.

SOURCE: How to recharge battery of Olympus FE-280 Digital Camera

When you purchased the camera, there should have been a charge in the box (you got a lithium-ion rechargable battery with the camera, no?). You put the battery in the charger and plug the charger in the wall.

SOURCE: I bought KODAK NiMH 2400 mAh and it isn't

NiMH tends to have a "memory". What this means is that the batteries will get used to being only charged and discharged a certain amount. What could be happening is that the battery THINKS it is charged when it is not... or.. it THINKS it is discharged when it is not. You can try to recondition them:

1. Charge them
2. reset the charger and charge again
3. put them in your device and drain them
4. let them sit, drain them again
5. recharge them
6. drain them again

SOURCE: Canon Powershot A470 - asks to 'change battery'

This happened with my Canon Powershot A470. I sent it back to he manufacturer and they said I was using the wrong batteries. Even though the camera is supplied with two alkaline batteries, they recommend using AA NimH rechargable batteries.
