It may have been damaged. Was it exposed to a lot of heat?

Hello, I have a Canon Power Shot sd1000 Digital ELPH. I cant get the time and date stamp to print on the pictures. How can I fix this?

If the pictures are the ones you have shot without time and date stamp, you can't add them by your camera then. You only can add them by your computer.

Camera lens cover won't open when you turn the camera on. Says "power off then on" but still stuck

This kind of problem occurs if camera dropped on floor that broke lens mechanism OR lens mechanism got dust particles that make it stuck.
Usually lens mechanism needs to be replaced to solve the issue, however, user level try to solve the problem is to tap camera on your palm a few time gently that may release stuck lens mechanism and it start working again, if that does not help then lens assembly will be replaced.
Thanks.

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.

Says turn off and on but does no good.

If the lense cover does not open when you turn the camera on the lens cover motor is bad.

Lense Error on a cannon SD600 power Shot Digital Elpha

Hey Antwon954,
Before you have the camera serviced I would try a couple of things first like try blowing compressed air into the side of the lens. What this does is dislodge anything that might be obstructing the movement of the lens. If this doesn't work I would try putting the camera on a flat surface with the lens pointed up and hold down the shutter button, and while doing this turn the power on. If neither of these options work I would have it looked at by an authorized service technician. You could bring it to a Geek Squad® precinct in a Best Buy™ store and they can send it out for service. As far as how much it would cost it depends on what is causing the error, but I will say that most digital camera repairs often exceed the value of the camera. I hope this helps!

Sincerely,
Allan
