Assuming that the battery is good in the camera and that it will power OK othewise, then this is most likely a memory card problem. Locate the problem to either the card or the camera, please:1. try the card in another device, such as a computer with a card reader or another camera.2. try the camera with a different card that is known to be good and that has been properly shutdown before removing from the previous device.If the card works in another device then the problem is the camera and given the age, it probably needs to be replaced.But if the camera works with a different card then the problem is the card and it probably has been corrupted. Try replacing it.
Consider NOT connecting your camera to your computer.The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB or FireWire). This is likely to be faster than connecting the camera to the computer, and won't run down your camera's batteries.Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system's drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer's hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or you can use any photo cataloging program such as iPhoto.

Here are some troubleshooting steps that you can try that may (or may not) correct your problem.

Some of the later steps do involve some risk to the camera, so carefully weigh your options before deciding to conduct them:And here's a video summary of the steps:
On the left of the viewfinder, there is a little wheel. That is the diopter adjustment, which must be adjusted for your eyes. Rotate the wheel until things look in focus when you look through the viewfinder. The diopter wheel on the SX10 IS is prone to move when you take your camera in and out of the case, so it may need readjustment regularly.
If you are using alkaline batteries, you should switch to rechargeable NiMH batteries. I highly recommend the Sanyo Eneloop products. You should be able to get 300 to 400 shots before you need to recharge. Get two sets of four AA Eneloop batteries. Don't mix them. They hold their charge for a year and can be recharged a thousand times.
hi, that problem mostly from dust on lens. Cleanup the lens using soft material such cloth, tisue etc, on telescopic lens (silinder which deliver lens forward un reverse).
good luck.
Lens errors are fairly common. Usually it's sand or grit interfering with the lens extension mechanism. Or the camera's been dropped with the lens extended. Or the camera has been powered on, but the lens had been blocked preventing its extension. Or the battery ran down with the lens extended ...Here is a blog article with troubleshooting steps that you can try that may (or may not) correct it.
