How to activate date/time stamp on nikon d90

The date and time are stored with the picture as metadata, but the D90 won't mar your photos by scrawling a string of numbers on it. Any good photo editing program will let you print the date and time on the picture, in the margin, or on the back, depending on your printer.

My 1 year old Nikon D7200 camera will not take a clear picture of Christmas lights unless I put it in mirror up position. .. why

By not clear do you mean out of focus or streaked due to movement? Try using a higher ISO setting in order to allow for a faster shutter speed and/or use a tripod.

I Have a Nikon D40 DSLR and a Vivatar zoom thyristor flash unit. I want to fire it off camera in a dark with my shutter in bulb setting when sound is made. any Ideas?

My Nikon D3100 will not turn on. Is there something wrong with the batteries/memory card? Or rather the camera body itself?

It could be either the battery or the camera. If you have a second battery, try it. If it works with the second battery then the first battery is bad. If you don't have a second battery, take your camera and battery to a good photo store. They should have a second battery to try. You might be able to test your battery with one of theirs. This will tell you whether the battery or the camera is bad.

Can the Nikon D90 stamp the date and time on a photograph

The date and time are stored with the picture as metadata, but the D90 won't deface your photos by scrawling a string of numbers on it. Any good photo editing program will let you print the date and time on the picture, in the margin, or on the back, depending on your printer.

How do I turn on the data screen. The light is not turning on. I can't see it in dark situations.

The light has no manual on off, so if it is not working you need to contact NIKON and arrange to send the phone in for exchange.

Battery cannot be used on this camera

Nowadays, some camera mfrs are protecting their equipment by ensuring that no third-party batteries can be used (presumably by incorporating some kind of firmware check). They say that using generic batteries will invalidate your warranty. You may have to spend the extra and get an own-brand battery, which should solve the problem - hopefully.

Nikon Teleconverter

You could probably use either a 1.4 x or a 2 x, depending on how much you wanted to increase the focal length of your lens. A 1.4 x would give you a range of 98-420, a 2 x would give you a range of 140-600. Having said that, teleconverters are not usually recommended for use with zoom lenses, and you would lose one stop with the 1.4 x, two stops with the 2 x, thus necessitating longer exposures. Also, with the increase in focal length comes an increased probability of camera shake being more apparent, due to the increased magnification. In your position, I would attempt to get closer to the subject, using a teleconverter as a last resort if this is not possible.

Tried to connect firewire to Pc via firewie to USB adapter. This caused total camera failure. Will not power up even on AC adapter or other batteries

Fire wire is old and never competed with USB. They may be able to transfer data, but you probably fried your camera. Possibly due to older USB format.
