I recommend to use the caption package. It provides features for justification, also for centering, such as
\usepackage[justification=centering]{caption}
It offers many features, just have a look at its comprehensive documentation.

Kottwit, for my long table captions, i'm using \newline to make some comments about the tables. But i want these start from left is that possible? this is caption \newline this is more explanation (should be left aligned.) is there a way to do it?– berkayApr 19, 2011 at 7:31

1@berkay: Using
\newlineinside a paragraph which will be typeset centered is usually a bad idea. Better use \\ instead which should work under such conditions, too.– user2574Apr 21, 2011 at 5:26 -

Package caption Warning: Unsupported document class (or package) detected, usage of the caption package is not recommended. See the caption package documentation for explanation. (I use OverLeaf with XeLaTex Compiler) Oct 27, 2019 at 13:59
Note: If you do not want to change the justification for the whole document you can use \captionsetup{} within a particular figure and it will only change the captions within that environment.
Other than centering you may also want to try centerlast.
\usepackage{caption}
...
\begin{figure}
...
\captionsetup{justification=centering}
\caption{. . . }
\end{figure}
