How to fix HP photosmart 850 Digital Camera that won't turn on?
If your HP Digital Camera doesn't turn on, the batteries may be incorrectly installed, missing, or not functioning properly. Try using only photo-quality AA lithium, alkaline, or NiMH batteries. The charge in the batteries might be low or completely drained, so try installing new or recharged batteries. Make sure that the batteries are inserted correctly. Alternatively, ensure that the HP AC adapter is connected to both the camera and a working electrical outlet. Also, verify that the HP AC adapter itself is not damaged or defective.
Why won't my HP photosmart 850 Digital Camera batteries charge?
If your HP Digital Camera batteries won't charge, ensure you've installed NiMH batteries, as lithium and alkaline batteries cannot be recharged. Charging won't start if the batteries were recently charged, so try again after they've been used for a while. If the battery voltage is too low, the camera won't attempt to charge them to prevent damage; try charging them in a dedicated battery charger first, and if that doesn't work, replace them. Also, the camera only charges when it is off or asleep and connected to an AC power source. To initiate charging immediately, turn off the camera; otherwise, it will start charging when it turns itself off after 6 minutes of inactivity.
How to reset date and time on HP Digital Camera?
If your HP Digital Camera is showing the wrong date and/or time, it's likely because the batteries died or were removed for more than 10 minutes. To correct this, reset the date and time using the Date & Time option in the Setup menu.

If the camera has stopped operating, try removing and reinserting the batteries, replacing them if needed.

Why is my HP Digital Camera image too dark?
If your image from HP Digital Camera is too dark, there might not have been enough light. Wait for better natural lighting, add indirect lighting, or adjust the Exposure Compensation. If the flash was on but the subject was too far away, ensure the subject is within the flash's working distance, or try turning the flash off (which will require a longer exposure). If light shone behind the subject, use the Flash On setting or adjust the Exposure Compensation. Also, ensure your finger isn't blocking the flash.
