be sure to have the usb unplugged when trying to make photos/videos. ^^

if no usb-cable is connected, your filesystem may be corrupted.
just connect you n900 in mass storage mode to your windows pc and perform a filesystem check.
under xp: rightclick on the icon of your n900. click on properties and go to the right tab where you can perform the check. set the check to repair failures on the drive.

please reply if that helped.
and if you're using an other os than xp you might want to write down the exact steps. :)

I got the same problem a few weeks ago due to a buggy file and solved it like b666m already said.

Have a SD card inserted, start the backup application, set the backup storage place to the SD card, create a backup?

After doing the error correction remove safely and reboot ur N900. this should solve the problem.
