Why is the battery not charging when my Nikon COOLPIX S8000 is connected to a computer?

  dustin96Aug 27, 2025
  The battery may not charge when your Nikon Digital Camera is connected to a computer because the battery is not charged when the camera is turned off. Charging also stops if the computer enters sleep mode while the battery is charging or if the camera is turned off. Depending on computer specifications, settings, and status, it may be impossible to charge the battery via computer connection.

  meganwalkerAug 27, 2025
  The flash on your Nikon Digital Camera might not fire because the flash mode is set to W (off), a scene mode with which the flash does not fire is selected, or the flash cannot pop up fully. Also, check if On is selected for Blink proof in smart portrait menu, or if another function that restricts flash is enabled.

  If the date and time of recording are not correct on your Nikon Digital Camera, it may be because the camera clock has not been set. If the camera clock has not been set, “Date not set” indicator blinks with shooting and movie recording. Check the camera clock regularly against more accurate timepieces and reset as required.

  If the date and time are incorrect on your Nikon Digital Camera recordings, it's likely that the camera clock hasn't been set. A “Date not set” indicator will blink during shooting and movie recording. Pictures and movies recorded before setting the clock will be dated “00/00/0000 00:00” or “01/01/2010 00:00” respectively. Set the correct time and date from the Date option in the setup menu, and check the camera clock regularly, resetting it as needed.

  Your Nikon Digital Camera might be turning off without warning because the battery is exhausted or cold. It may also turn off automatically to save power. The camera also turns off if the Charging AC Adapter is connected while the camera is on, or if the USB cable connecting it to a computer or printer is disconnected.
