Im charging the battery, but when i put the battery on the camera nothing happens, no lights come on, the battery is charging but i was wondering if the only way the camera will come on is if the battery is fully charged. This camera has not been used in more than 4 years.

Lens errors are fairly common. Usually it's sand or grit interfering with the lens extension mechanism. Or the camera's been dropped with the lens extended. Or the camera has been powered on, but the lens had been blocked preventing its extension. Or the battery ran down with the lens extended ...
Unfortunately, many cameras that fall prey to this can only be corrected by professional repair. But, here are some things that you can do that may correct it. They only seem to work for less than 40% of the lens errors, but if the camera is out of warranty, they're worth a try.
Hi,
Most likely the battery has been depleted. When you are not using you camera you should always recharge the batteries every now and then. This ensures that they will last longer. Try buying a new battery for your camera.
You can charge the battery using the USB cable. The camera has a built-in recgargeable Li-ion battery, but the AC charger is "optional" ... go figure...
Nice camera, btw...
I'm not aware of any indicator light on the camera. The optional external charger has a red lighht that turns amber, then green.
The S210 is a camera, not a battery charger. In order to charge the battery, remove it from the camera and insert it into the supplied battery charger.
I have the same camera.
But when your camera is flashing the green light, that means it's transferring pics.
If the light is just green on the camera, that means that it's charging i think.
But i don't know how to tell when my camera is through charging is my problem.
Not sure if this will help, but you might try removing the batteries from camera, then see if it responds on the dock, if so it is most likely bad battery. That battery should be easy enough to find at locally.
