I've done something to my powershot elph 160 and it won't focus. It's on program mode and I'm using the macro setting. It keeps adjusting the focus on it's own. I've reset to default setting and it still won't let me focus. There used to be a green square when I would press the shutter button halfway down. Now there is a white square always in the center. If I turn the camera off and then back on it sometimes lets me use the macro but then it goes back to the blurry screen and won't use the macro. What have I changed to make it do this?
Thank you!

It almost sounds like you have the Face AiAF set to on, When you are in this mode, the camera will be looking for faces to focus on, and won't find a focus if it doesn't recognize something as a face. Check your user manual from pages 51-54 to see if that helps to solve your issue.
