Its broke Baby Girl, its broke. As it is not new you will not get much joy from Canon - though you could look up their web site and tell the tale to Technical Support. I tell you this because if it is more than year old - nobody is going to mend it. But if its a model that had a problem- they might - just might swap it for another one. You can only ask. PS to get a nice reply-rewrite this story in normal type and grammar Never send messages in capitals -thats kinda like shoutin' and no one likes to be shouted at do they?

My camera is doing the same thing, but my problem started by my taking pictures in a ususal fashion and getting a 'Change the Batteries" message and the battery indicator indeed showed a low battery at the time...Ofcourse, i milked the batteries for all they were worth and it died on me...I purchased new batteries, Energizer Max...and the bottom green light just winked at me once and the camera did not power on. So, ofcouse I tried this 20 more times. I flipped the batteries, cleaned the terminals, anything I could think of, and chaulked it up to bum batteries (..never my camera!...). So, i slipped to the store and bought some Duracell fancy-smancy high performace batteries. Rushed home, slipped them in the camera...same thing. The camera winked that bottom green light - but, no power. What in the world? To think just days prior I was snapping pics left and right!! It wasn't dropped or mishandled! It happened right in my own hands...it started with a "Change the Batteries" message...something I've seen more times that I can guestimate! Can anyone help??
