My Polaroid iD975 video camera won't turn on but the green light is constantly on, even if I remove the battery and put it back in the light comes on again. How can I fix this?

This could be early signs of imminent failure of a defective CCD imager. If so, Canon should fix this for you for free, including free shipping both ways. This is regardless of your camera's warranty status. Please check the following two links for more info:

My pictures always come out very dark. I'm not sure if the settings need to be adjusted. I tried adjusting the color but, the pictures are still dark. What should I do?

I have a 9700 bold and the same thing happened. Flash stays on even when battery is removed and left out for a whole day! as soon as you put th ebattery back. Flash is back on!

Out of fusrtation i gave it a slap and the thing turned off and is now working as normal again!
