Why can't I take pictures or record movies with my Nikon Coolpix S9900?

If you cannot take pictures or record movies with your Nikon Digital Camera, and the battery is exhausted, the camera might be in playback mode. Press the c button, shutter-release button, or b (e) button. If menus are displayed, press the d button. When the scene mode is Night portrait or Backlighting with HDR set to Off, raise the flash. Note that the flash is charging while the flash lamp is flashing, or the camera and smart device are connected using Wi-Fi connection and the camera is operated by remote control.
