This picture already exists in this location. Would you like to save a copy anyway?

I have a Nikon Coolpix S4000. I'm trying to save a video to my computer but I'm getting the above message, even though the video has not been saved on my computer. It's an avi.file but somehow my computer is not recognising it.
Added (1). There has never been a copy saved… My computer isn't recognising it.

I've tried saving with a different name but that doesn't work either.
Added (2). I found someone with the same problem as me…

"I'm so frustrated.It's hit or miss transferring videos from my Canon powershot to my computer. I successfully transferred several videos but then there are others that do it really fast like the computer isn't really downloading a video, and at the end after it downloads to 100% the following message pops up:

"This picture already exists in this location. Would you like to save a copy anyway?"
With the option to choose from:
"yes, yes to all, no, no to all"

I don't have it already in the location - I am downloading it for the first time (it says picture instead of video because I download all my videos into my "picture" file, unless it is considering the video as an actual picture and not a video?

If I click on "yes", it'll give the icon of the video on my picture file but unlike the successful transfers, it won't show an image of the video but instead the icon is the windows logo and when I try to play it it says my computer doesn'
Added (3). Hi Elvis, downloading Quicktime will not help since my computer is not saving the file.

What do I do about the battery exhausted notification on my camera?

Okay so I have a Nikon Coolpix L120 camera and anytime I take a picture, or in the middle of a video, or after a few seconds, everything stops and this "battery exhausted" screen comes up that shuts the camera down. It runs on AA batteries so I tried changing those, but it still doesn't do anything because it says the battery is full when the camera actually does work. It's too late to return it and it takes really nice pictures when it actually works. Idk what to do!
Added (1). Again,
I HAVE CHANGED THE BATTERIES. It still doesn't work! It says it's full battery then goes to the screen anyway.
Added (2). The camera isn't old at ALL. A year maybe.

Photos cannot import into iPhoto (Nikon S70)?

I'm trying to import my photos from a month ago to this weekend into my iPhoto. The camera I'm using is a Nikon Coolpix S70. Half the photos from a month ago will import (all taken on the same night by the way) but the other half to the ones I took this afternoon will not upload. I get an error screen that says "Unreadable files: The following images could not be imported. The file is an unrecognized format".

Can anyone help me out? Is it my iPhoto, computer, or camera? And can I fix this? If so how?

Nikon Coolpix s3100 lens error? - 1

Alright guys, so a little kid at the preschool I work at dropped my camera while it was on. At first, it wouldn't turn on, then I got it to turn on, but whether it was on or off, the lens would always stay half open. I just scrubbed it with a toothbrush to get our any dirt, and got the lens to extend fully. But now when I look at the screen, I can only see half an image, the rest is black. I noticed if I look right into the lens, the thing inside there is knocked to the side slightly, and if I move my camera around it'll move too.

is there ANYTHING I can do.

Camera for journaling?


Hi, I was just wondering if anyone has any suggestions of a camera I could use for journaling? I already have a film camera which I use for learning technique but my main cause for getting into this hobby is for a preservation of memory. I journal a lot but I wanted to put some photographs throughout the text, because as a small child I thoroughly enjoyed flicking through my parent's photo albums. The camera's I am considering include:

- Instax Mini 8 ~ cute camera, takes instant photos (I love having the physical thing in my hand) but the film is expensive…
- Polaroid z2300 ~ digital camera with ability to take instant, film is less expensive than Instax
- Nikon Coolpix So1 ~ super tiny camera (that I can take anywhere), going for supersupersuper cheap at a store near me… Stock will probably run out soon though, no instant but could get them printed

Any advice for which one I should go for? My main purpose is to include tangible photographs throughout my writing, something I can look back upon in the years to come:) Thanks xx

Blurry Pictures with Nikon camera?

Got a new Nikon camera for christmas, and a lot of my pictures are coming out blurry, especially when using the zoom. (I have a Nikon - Coolpix L120 14.1)
I"m not sure what i'm doing wrong? Theres a spcial "up close" mode you can put it on for zooming, but that doesn't seem to help much.
Added (1). If it is the shutter speed, how do i adjust that?

What will Nikon charge me to repair Lens Error?

I have a Nikon Coolpix S6000 that I got for Christmas of 2010. Today i was taking pictures(i had already taken about 30 pictures) and i got the screen of death… Yes… The! LENS ERROR! Screen. I read a bunch of stuff about this and i know that a bunch particles and gunk got in the mechanics of the lens. I can turn it on and it shows a perfect screen… For about a second. Then it goes out of focus and then says LENS ERROR. After i turn it off the lens doesn't move. I have tried everything that camerarepair's blogspot says to do I promise. I was thinking to take it to geek squad at Best Buy but later read that they will more than likely just send it to Nikon then charge you extra.

So, if I send it directly to Nikon(like they suggest you to do for this problem on their website) how much will it cost? I rough estimate? I don't think i have a warranty or anything and I have never registered it on their website. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thankss

XO, Taylor
