Why won't my Nikon Coolpix s550 turn on?

I've had my camera since Christmas of 2008. I charged the battery for the first time in about 5 months and it won't turn on… Help? Even when I press the power button, nothing happens.

Battery problems with Nikon Coolpix L100 Camera?

I bought it off Ebay so i cant return it and get a new one from a store etc etc. The firmware is updated to 1.1 and the option for rechargeable batts is on. But when i put in brand new fully charged batts it shows that the battery level is low.

is there anyway i can take it some where and they can install a different battery (like a battery pack?)

Im using this to help shoot my honeymoon and with batterys that die so fast im not sure what to do. I just bought it and my honeymoon is 2 weeks away so returning it and finding a new one and getting it here wont work.

Any help?

Waterproof cameras: which is better for the price, Panasonic or Nikon?

I'm trying to decide between two waterproof point-and-shoot cameras:

PANASONIC LUMIX DMC-TS5 BLUE + BUNDLE $320
Shape is easiest and most comfortable to hold, but not as streamlined and would be bulkier in pocket. Heavier than the Nikons. I was told this one is 'the best' by two different sales people.

NIKON COOLPIX AW110 + BUNDLE SPECIAL $260
This one is last year's model on clearance and includes Photoshop Elements 11.
Feels lighter and has a slimmer design that would be easier to slip in and out of my pocket.

My purpose would be 99% land use, especially landscapes, nature, outdoors, but also people, indoors, night pics, etc. I may use when traveling, hiking, trekking, snorkeling or doing other activities where the waterproof/rugged features as well as GPS would be handy. I don't plan on diving for needing deep underwater pics, but who knows, I am in the future. Camera must be easy to use as I am usually active and only have one hand free when taking photos.

I'd like good quality pictures because I share them online and often print them.

So, do I get this year's Panasonic Lumix DMC-TS5, touted as 'the best waterproof camera', or save some money and get last year's Nikon Coolpix AW110, the 'second best waterproof camera'?

Where can I learn how to use digital cameras?

I currently have a Nikon Coolpix P80. I recently have really gotten into photography and I would like to get a DSLR camera during Christmas sometime. However, by the time I get the new camera I want to know how to use my current camera very well so that I can know how to use the new one proficiently as well. I am at a very beginner level currently. Where can I learn how to become a good photographer. I know I have to learn though experience but I am very willing to spend hours taking pictures. Where can I learn what all the terms mean and how to adjust them to do what I want them to do. Thank you!

Why does my point and shoot camera have such a big zoom compared to a DSLR lens?

A while ago I was into photogrophy and I got a Nikon Coolpix P80. Recently I have gotten a lot more into taking pictures and I have been looking at a lot of DSLR cameras and their lenses. Why does my Coolpix have an 18X zoom and is 27-486mm, while a normal DSLR kit lens is 18-55mm. The Coolpix has a much larger range. Why is this? How can they do that on the Coolpix normal lens? Sorry this is a beginner question, but as I said I am just getting into it all.

How to get my Nikon Coolpix L110 to take better pictures without flash?

Whenever I'm unable to use flash when taking a picture-- like in a museum, for example-- the picture ALWAYS turns out blurry. Always. I use my Nikon Coolpix L110, and even when I use a different setting (like, as I used previously, when I'm in a museum I set it to museum) it's not a stable picture. I've tried every setting there is, as well as tried fixing it through the camera menu. If I'm unable to have this feature (which I need half the time), I'll have to buy a new camera!
I don't know what to do! Please help!

Thank you!

Camera has a DC - 5.0V port?

What is it for? My camera isn't marketed as chargeable, only battery powered. It's a Nikon Coolpix L820. It didn't come with a charger, only a USB cord and HDMI cord.
What is the DC - 5.0V port for? Google shows it's a charging port, but I don't think my camera is actually chargeable.
It would be nice if it is chargeable, four batteries go dead pretty quick with just minimal usage.

Sorry for repetitive details, lol.
Thanks.

How to get money fairly quickly at 13?

Hiya! Okay so, I want a good camera because the one I have now is really awful. I want to take good pictures and make a scrapbook about this summer but I don't wanna horrible pictures. So I want to buy a waterproof camera to take pictures at the beach and pool as well as other summer stuff. I'm deciding between two:
