Did you check if the batteries are inserted correct? + to + and - to -
Also it could be you have the wrong batteries.
Depending of what you use, always be sure all batteries are the same, charged and suited for your camera. Most of the time even new Ni-CD rechargeable batteries won't work, because the voltage is to low, according to Ni-MH or alkaline batteries. Checking the voltage of every cell with a multimeter could tell you for sure the batteries are good. Voltage should be jus above the voltage printed on the battery when measured.
Never use manganese (Zinc-Carbon) batteries, because they don't have enough capacity to let a camera work correct.

Buttons not working batteries

Check if they are the ones that fit to this exact camera. Sometimes cameras don't "read" random batteries and they have to be the one's that the manufacturer says (check the manual).

I have a canon camera and it wont turn on i bought brand new battries for it and still nothing!

Things to check first for a camera that won't turn on are battery contact points, and micro switches that are located on the battery and memory card doors. Troubleshooting tips on other things that need to be checked may be seen here. These tips won't work for every case, but they're worth a try.

My camera won't turn on...it is brand new

Brand new as in you just opened it out of the box? If thats the case you have to charge the re-chargeable battery first, then put it in the camera and it should work fine. Try giving the battery a charge first if you haven't already.

My camera wont stay on it bleeps once then turns off

That sounds like your battery could be dead/not hold a charge. If you've charged your battery already and your camera still won't stay off and turns off right away, it's time to purchase a new battery for your Samsung TL105.

You can purchase replacement batteries quite cheap here:
