I got this camera last
Hi,
Sounds like the battery is toast. Batteries can stop charging any point in their life span. Usually I'd suggest just buying a new battery but because a battery shouldn't die like that within the first year I'd suggest contacting Nikon in your country and seeing what they'll do for you.
I have dot of my
Hi,
Sounds like some dust or sand got into the camera and is on the sensor. That means you need to have the camera cleaned, if you contact Nikon they can tell you of authorized service centres in your area that can clean the sensor.

Hi,
It almost sounds like the battery won't hold a charge anymore which means you need a new battery. Since the camera isn't quite a year old yet I'd suggest contacting Nikon and seeing if they'll do anything for you before you buy a new battery.

My guess is that the lens has some sand in it. You might just want to open the lens as much as possible and give it a good cleaning with rubbing alcohol on a cotton swab as well as blowing it out with canned air. I know it seams kinda nuts, but if cleaning it doesn't work try to manually push the lens in slightly to free up some stuck sand. Also, you could tap the camera on a hard surface with a small piece of fabric under it to try to knock out some more of the sand.
Hope that helps!
When I'm taking a picture,
Most digital cameras jams are the cost of lens problems while zooming, with Nikon Coolpix S4000, simply use your fingers carefully pulling on the lens while turning the camera on. this can be done by getting your fingernail under the lens opening and gently pull.
Help me fix my camera please it keep saying this
Hi, and welcome to FixYa-
Have you tried another card in there? They are relatively cheap these days. if that isn't an option, do you have a computer/laptop that has a digital card reader on it and if so, have you tried to see if the card can be on those devices? If you can read it on a computer/laptop, then your camera might not be recognizing the format (file system) of the card. Try to format the card (in Windoze, right click on the drive icon in My Computer, select 'format' and select FAT32 as your option.

Tap MENU to bring up the menu screen. Tap the wrench tab to access the Setup menu. Scroll down if needed, and select "Sound Settings." Turn off the "Button Sound" and, if desired, the "Shutter Sound."
This is described in the "Sound Settings" subsection of the "Setup Menu" section of the manual (page 148 in my copy).

Remove
the memory card and you will find a switch on the left side of the
card. It must be locked, so slide or push the lock on other side to open
it and then insert the card back to the Camera.
Your
problem carries all the hallmarks of "your card isn't fast enough".
Check your manual to see what speed of card is required for HD video. If
it doesn't say, try a card that says as least "Class 10" or "10Mb/s" or
"66x". If you set the movie resolution down to 640x480 it has a better chance of working

How do i download pics to my pc please
The easiest way to transfer the pictures onto your computer is to remove the memory card and plug it into a card reader (either built in or a USB card reader if you have one). If not, you can connect your camera to your computer by the USB cable.
Once you plug the camera or the card in, Windows will usually ask you if you want to import the images. You can do that or import them manually by opening up the SD card or camera in my computer and dragging the files to the folder you want to store them in.
Please leave feedback if this was helpful. Thanks.
My camera froze....it will not turn on or off,
Hello Dejen218 - The standard procedure for pretty much any locked digital camera is to remove the battery, wait a few minutes and reinstall it.
If that doesn't work (unlikely) remove the battery and leave it out for several hours. When this is done any off the settings you changed from the camera's defaults will have to be setup again. Photos on your memory cards will be safe. If you aren't using a separate memory (SD) card pictures stored in internal memory will be lost.
Good luck and thank you for consulting Fix Ya

My Nikon S4000 (red) won't charge. I've tried
The battery itself won't charge in-camera like a cell phone-- you'd need to remove the battery and plug it into the supplied charger (EH-68P). You may have an ac adapter for the camera that basically would just be used to power the camera without a battery or for long periods of time without relying on the battery. It wouldn't be used to charge the camera.
Every time I try and upload pictures onto my
this is a very odd problem, I have the same camera and it works fine, your best bet is to buy a usb SD memory card dongle. they are about 14 dollars, this will solve your problem with the photos, but I don't know why your camera won't work properly with the cable., have you tried it with the cable on your friends computer?
