Need fix for change the batteries error on canon powershot s2 is

"change the batteries" error message is popping up after taking 2 or 3 pictures with a new set of batteries. After surfing the Internet for solutions we found changing the date battery should solve the problem. But it does not work. We also tried formatting the SD card. Please help

Hi Vindhiya!
Thank you for posting and welcome to the Canon Forum.
The connection between the batteries and the camera may be dirty.  Gently clean over the contacts on the battery compartment cover, inside the battery compartment and on the batteries.  Make sure the batteries are fresh as well.  If this does not help, the camera will be in need of repair.
The Powershot S2 IS is no longer in service life, so it is unable to be repaired by our Factory Service Centers.  However,  you may participate in the Canon Loyalty Program instead.  The Canon Loyalty Program option allows you to replace your current camera for a discounted fee, plus shipping.  The original non-functioning camera would then be returned to Canon USA for recycling using a prepaid shipping label that would be provided.  
If you would like to take part in this option, please call our Sales Department at (800) OK CANON (800-652-2666) seven days a week, 8am to Midnight.  Let them know you have been working with online support and the Canon Loyalty Program was offered.  Be sure to have your serial number for your camera at the time of your call.

  • I have bought the wireless keyboard for my iPad.  I was working for a day but now the power light won't stay on and as such won't connect to the iPad.  I have changed the batteries but still no difference.

    I have bought the wireless keyboard for my iPad.  I was working for a day but now the power light won't stay on and as such won't connect to the iPad.  I have changed the batteries but still no difference.

    Not knowing which wireless keyboard you bought, it is difficult to be specific.  but ...
    it is quite normal for the keyboard's power light not to stay on - it is a way of conserving battery power.
    Try this:
    turn you keyboard off
    on your iPad go to Settings > Bluetooth
    if your keyboard is listed under Devices, then touch the little blue i to its right and choose Forget this Device
    now reset your iPad:  hold both the Home and Power buttons down for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears, let go promptly when the Apple logo appears and wait another 30 seconds for your iPad to turn itself on
    After your iPad is back on again go back to Settings > Bluetooth
    now turn your keyboard back on and see if it appeard under Now Discoverable
         if it doesn't read your keyboard guide to figure out how to put it into Discovery mode
    touch the listing for your keyboard under Now Discoverable, it should now appear under Devices
    touch the listing for you keyboard under Devices, and choose to pair with it.

  • Im unable to open my wireless mouse back to change the batteries. The little black button seems to be stuck - I've tried to pry it open using 2 small screwdrivers but to no avail. Will I need to buy a new mouse?ve tried to pry it ope

    I am unable to open the back of my wirelss mouse to change the batteries which I've changed several times before. The black release button on the back does not seem to work. I've tried using a couple of small screwdrivers to pry it open but I don't want to break the plastic and therefore the mouse. Anyone have any other ideas or do I need to buy a new mouse?

    You may have caused more damage with the screwdrivers.  It can be tricky as it works the opposite way to what you may first imagine.    Hold the mouse, bottom upwards, the black catch nearest to you.   Then flick the black catch towards you with your nail.   (Not away from you towards where a space is showing).

  • My wireless key board doesn't seem to communication with my computer even though bluetooth shows it is connected.  I have changed the batteries on the keyboard and when turn on the key board the green lights comes on shortly and disappears.How to fix ?

    my wireless key board doesn't seem to communication with my computer even though bluetooth shows it is connected.  I have changed the batteries on the keyboard and when turn on the key board the green lights comes on shortly and disappears.  Can any one  help?

    Hey Annar99,
    I found a few articles that might help with the issue you're encountering. These first two are if the Bluetooth keyboard you're using is the one that came with your iMac. The first is a general "how to" for setting up your Apple Wireless keyboard, while the second one is for troubleshooting if the advice in the first article isn't working:
    Bluetooth: How to set up your Apple Wireless Keyboard
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1809
    Troubleshooting wireless mouse and keyboard issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3048
    If, on the other hand, you're using a third party keyboard, then I would take a look at the following article's troubleshooting section:
    Bluetooth Quick Assist
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1153#Tips
    Hope that helps,

  • My canon sx120IS continues to show low batter and shuts off even after changing the batteries.

    My canon sx120 is  continues to show low battery and shuts off even after changing the batteries.  Any suggestions? Do I need to send it for repair somewhere, and if so, where?

    Hi LB!
    Thank you for posting on our forum!
    Try cleaning the electrical contacts on the camera and the batteries using a soft microfiber cleaning cloth.  If the same warning still displays, then the camera will need to be serviced.  To start the repair process, you'll need to complete a Repair Request on our website.
    If the camera is more than a year old, you may participate in the Canon Loyalty Program instead.  The Canon Loyalty Program option allows you to replace your current camera for a discounted fee, plus shipping.  The original non-functioning camera would then be returned to Canon USA for recycling using a prepaid shipping label that would be provided.

  • TS3048 my wireless mouse is not working at all. I have changed the batteries and still nothing, not even a flashing green light. I am using someone else's computer to ask these questions as I now can't use mine. Help!!!

    my wireless mouse is not working at all. I have changed the batteries and still nothing, not even a flashing green light. I am using someone else's computer to ask these questions as I now can't use mine. Help!!!

    I just had the same problem. And I found the solution, on Youtube.
    The problem is that these ******** at apple designed the battery compartement, the distance between metal contacts too big.
    That means the batteries plus or minus poles are not touching the corresponding contacts in the mouses battery compartement.
    Most likely the battery doesn't get pushed up to touch the plus contacts.
    I used a fingernail to push the battery up and tadaa, the green LED came on.
    The guy in the Youtube video just put some folded aluminium foil under the minus poles for bridging the gap.
    See here, "How to fix the Apple Magic Mouse!":

  • My IMac has stopped seeing the keyboard. I have changed the batteries and the green light comes on saying it is looking to pair with the IMac but without success. I am left with the IMac switched on and I am unable to enter a password.

    I have been using my IMac without a problem when I left it and went back to enter the password the IMac did not see the keyboard. I have changed the batteries and the green light comes up on the keyboard and then starts to flash indicating it is looking for the IMac but nothing happens. I have tried another set of new batteries with the same result. Is there any known problems in this area. The IMac is 5 months old.
    Thank you for any help

    What operating system does your iMac have? (please always post your operating system to prevent confustion).
    If it's pre-Lion you will have to set Mail up manually:
    Entering iCloud email settings manually in Snow Leopard or Leopard
    Entering iCloud email settings manually in Tiger

  • My wireless keyboard no longer connects with my iMac since changing the batteries. It now shows as not connected, not paired and not configured. A friend recently connected his iPad to the iMac and since then the problem started. Any ideas to resolve this

    My wireless keyboard no longer connects with my iMac since changing the batteries. It now shows as not connected, not paired and not configured. A friend recently connected his iPad to the iMac and since then the problem started. Any ideas to resolve this?

    a friend told me that he wants my os x cd for my macbook pro to upgrade his imac.
    The discs that come with your Mac are "machine specfic" and cannot be used on another Mac.

  • [svn:fx-trunk] 12078: Fix for change events in Slider and ScrollBar.

    Revision: 12078
    Revision: 12078
    Author:   [email protected]
    Date:     2009-11-21 00:14:46 -0800 (Sat, 21 Nov 2009)
    Log Message:
    Fix for change events in Slider and ScrollBar. They now dispatch change events as before, whenever the user alters the value. In addition, changeStart and changeEnd events will be dispatched at the start and end of a user interaction or animation.
    TrackBase.as - Added metadata for changeStart/End events. Dispatch change, changeStart/End events when appropriate.
    Slider.as - Dispatch change, changeStart/End events when appropriate.
    ScrollBar.as - Dispatch the appropriate events. Note that changeStart/End will not dispatch when shift-clicking on a non-animating ScrollBar. Renamed animatingSinglePage to animatingOnce to better reflect its function. Refactored some method calls to the new private stopAnimation(), which is more consistent with Slider. Refactored the button handlers to make stepping more readable. Added a setValue call in animationEndHandler where we were ending up off the snapInterval when shift-clicking.
    Updated FlexEvent, ScrollBarTestScript and VideoPlayer to handle the new events.
