   I can only power on my A1000 with the adapter (CA-PS800). I have confirmed that the batteries are good. Funny thing is everything was fine prior to uploading pix to the puter. Not sure if I disconnected power prior to powering off but I've tried every combination with the adapter but... no work. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

   Hi torotoro,

   First off, welcome to the forum! Regarding your A1000 problem, have you tried to reset the camera while plugged into the adapter? There should be a camera reset option in the menu. If that doesn't correct the issue, I'm not sure what the problem could be, although if it's an internal error, you'd have to send your camera in for repair.

   Another thing to look at is the contacts in the battery compartment. Are they corroded or damaged in any way?

   Try the reset first and then report back. Good luck!

   Thank you for the quick reply aberrant and for the welcome. Unfortunately the reset didn't work and the contacts are pristine. I had just run through about 3 sets of batteries through it prior to uploading the pix. Thanks again.

   torotoro,

   I would suggest sending your camera to Canon for repair. Is it still under warranty? Maybe someone else will chime in here, but that seems like the best option at this point.

   I bought just about 13 months ago so I guess I can get ready to pay.
