To keep things simple at first inspect the battery compartment for signs of damage to the contacts and perhaps corrosion. How old are both batteries ? The likelihood&nbsp; of both batteries being bad is slim but possible. If you have the ACK-DC20 power adapter you can try that and see if the camera turns on...that would narrow it down.</P><P>Also be sure the battery compartment door is closing properly and not damaged, the camera will not turn on if it is not closed completely.</P><P>Next your looking at an internal fuse or circuit board issue which would require service. Or perhaps the power button also. I did a quick search on the G9 with Google and saw multiple You Tube videos and "hits" with the same problem you are reporting and how to repair it...depending on how brave one is lol !&nbsp;</P> Wed, 02 Jul 2014 12:40:46 GMT John_ 2014-07-02T12:40:46Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Point-Shoot-Digital-Cameras/PowerShot-G9-on-off-button/m-p/102198#M5521 <P>Camera Problem--PowerShot G9--Both my apparently charged camera batteries are all of a sudden not turning my camera on.&nbsp; Maybe the on-off button is not making a connection in the battery compartment?</P><P>Did something fall out, or did I overcharge both lithium batteries?</P> Wed, 02 Jul 2014 05:40:08 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Point-Shoot-Digital-Cameras/PowerShot-G9-on-off-button/m-p/102198#M5521 Karlyn 2014-07-02T05:40:08Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Point-Shoot-Digital-Cameras/PowerShot-G9-on-off-button/m-p/102230#M5522 <P>Hi Karlyn, there is a pretty long list as to why your camera will not turn on including what you mentioned, the power button or batteries.
