the zoom won't work on my camera, the Canon Powershot SD550. can this be fixed without taking it to the shop. i have no warranty either.

The first thing to try is to recharge the battery.
Is it just the zoom, or does the lens fail to extend when you power-on the camera?
Are you getting an error message?
If it is the zoom, is it stuck in the zoom position or the no-zoom position?
Does the camera work otherwise?

The camera is working and when you turn it on and off the lens goes in and out. It was dropped and could be the explanation why the zoom is not working. The button which you use to zoom where you turn it does move, but the lens just does not zoom, but does close when the power is turned on and off. The battery is charged and there is no error message. So just the zoom is the problem.
