Did you accidentally press the DISP button on the back of your camera? This manually turns the screen on and off to save batteries. Try pressing this button one more time to see if it turns the screen back on.

This seems to be a particular issue with this model camera, noting by the Fixya archived problems for this model. Noting that the slide switch doesn't seem to correct this problem for the majority, the only other possibility is that the corresponding switch internal to the camera might be gummed up. As such, please see the "toothpick fix" (Fix #4) of this link.

My cannon power shot sd780 lens cover does not open when turned on. Just a black screen. The barrel does extend. Is there something I can do to fix it?

Its not easy to dismantle this kind of gadget, a broken gear inside or some mechanical parts of the lens assembly caused lens not to open or a motor controller itself, so better to find a cannon service center ear you.
