    How to fix a Canon POWERSHOT A85 that doesn't turn on?
    • A
      austinprinceJul 26, 2025
      If your Canon Digital Camera isn't turning on, here are a few things to check: * Ensure the camera is actually powered on by pressing the ON/OFF button. * Make sure that the CF card slot cover and the battery cover are securely closed. * Verify that the batteries are loaded in the correct direction. * Try replacing the batteries with a fresh set of alkaline or fully recharged batteries (AA-size). * Confirm you're using the correct type of batteries: either AA-size alkaline or Canon AA-size NiMH. * Clean the battery terminals with a dry cloth to ensure good electrical contact. * Try reloading the batteries several times.

    What to do if my Canon POWERSHOT A85 Digital Camera won't shoot?
    • J
      jamesfordJul 30, 2025
      If your Canon Digital Camera isn't taking pictures, consider these potential solutions: * Format the CF card. * Ensure the camera is in Shooting mode, not Playback mode. * Wait for the flash to fully charge. You can press the shutter button when the indicator next to the viewfinder lights up orange. * If the CF card is full, insert a new card or download images to your computer and then erase them from the card to free up space. * If the card may be defective (its logical may be corrupted) contact the nearest Canon Customer Help Desk.

    Why do the batteries drain so fast on my Canon POWERSHOT A85?
    • T
      Tony DeanAug 11, 2025
      If your Canon Digital Camera is draining batteries too fast, try these steps: * Make sure you are using the correct type of batteries, which should be unused AA-size alkaline or Canon AA-size NiMH batteries. * If you're shooting in a cold environment, keep the batteries warm until you're ready to use them. * Clean the battery terminals with a dry cloth before inserting them. * If the batteries haven't been used for over a year, try charging them several times to see if performance improves. * If the batteries have exceeded their lifespan, replace all four with new ones.

      Donna SuttonAug 16, 2025
      If the lens on your Canon Digital Camera won't retract, check the following: * If the battery cover or CF card slot cover was opened while the camera was on, close the cover and then turn off the camera. * If the battery cover or CF card slot cover was opened while the camera was recording to the CF card (and a warning signal sounded), close the covers and use the ON/OFF button to turn the power off correctly.

    Why can't I play back images on my Canon POWERSHOT A85?
    • H
      Hannah AndersonAug 20, 2025
      If you cannot play back images on your Canon Digital Camera, it might be because: * You attempted to play back images shot with another camera or images edited on a computer. Computer images that cannot be played back will playback if they are added to the camera using the bundled software program ZoomBrowser EX or ImageBrowser. * The file name or location was changed using a computer. Set the file name or location to the file format/ structure of the camera.
