It was working fine yesterday,but then thebatteries died when I put new batteries in this morning it wont turn on.

what do i do?

Answer 1

Make sure the batteries are in right, if you have one backwards your camera won't work. The marks are kinda hard to see. If it still won't turn on try the batteries in a different device and make sure they are good. I've had dead batteries in a pack, it doesn't happen very often but it does happen.

Answer 2

If you remove the batteries for at least one minute, the camera should reset or restore to the original settings. This may help, but the problem could be with your camera and battery electrical contacts. Make sure the new batteries and old batteries are cleaned and charged.

The source link will help you clean these contacts.

The secret to making digital cameras work better is having good electrical contacts between the batteries and the camera.

Digital cameras require lots of power. If electrical contacts are not really good, this can cause lots of problems so battery and camera contacts must be cleaned properly.  Batteries may have a full charge, but will be viewed by the camera as low if contacts are not really good. The LCD display is a low steady load, but with extending the lens, focus, optical zoom, and flash charging in the capture mode; it is like starting a car.  With bad contacts, cameras can do strange things like making bad pictures or shutting off with the lens out.

Answer 3

Sorry if this seems a little condescending, but you'd be surprised how often this is the problem...are the batteries turned the right way?  If they are the right way then I'd suggest holding down the battery cover so it's nice and tight against the batteries, and then trying to turn it back on.  

If that works, use a length of duct tape or something equivalent to secure it more permanently.
