One quick question is it possible that your husband set the camera up for back button focus? And sorry for your loss
I tired that and when it takes a picture an error message comes up. I am thinking I will need to take to a shop.

No, it isn't. If you have a good camera store nearby-- sometimes they can help troubleshoot. It's hard to troubleshoot over the web. Good luck. Sorry I couldn't help more....
Yeah I might do that thank you for your help

You might try to see if you can find a known-good battery. If the battery in your D90 is tired (entirely possible with a ten-year-old D90) it might have enough voltage to show as fully charged, but still not be able to supply sufficient current to operate the on-camera flash or focus motors. It may be a long shot, but is one issue that could cause both the dark pics and lack of autofocus.
I will try that. Thank you

You should see the mirror before depressing the shutter. It will then raise and the drop back down. Use a longer shutter duration-- one second or so. Then you can observe what happens.
It doesn't do anything :/ that's probably not good

Set the camera to manual and remove the lens. Look into the camera while depressing the shutter. Verify that the mirror and shutter mechanism are operational...
This might seem silly but when you do that what should it look like to know if it is working right?

Check the AF/M lever below the lens release button. Make sure it is fully in the AF position and not in M or stopped midway between.
Also try pressing the AE/AF Lock button on the rear of the camera to see if it may be set to back button focus.

It will only let me take pics if the camera lense is on manual but nothing on auto. And now when i take pics I get this message. I hope to figure this out I would love to be able to use a camera again vs my phone.

Do you have both the lens and the camera set for AF?

I'm not familiar with this camera but I think under the circumstances I would start by doing a factory reset.

That helped changing the ISO now the only thing is it won't focus they only way to make it focus is if I put it on manual. I have changed lenses too.

So I have a NikonD90 which we have had for years but it was my husbands before hand and he passed away last year. I finally felt ready to use the camera after all this time and I can't seem to get it to work. When I try and take a picture it just stays dark and it won't take any pics unless I hit the button a few times for some reason it won't focus. The picture at the bottom is one I took in a lighted room with the flash and its dark. I have even swapped out lenses. I really hope this is a easy fix I would appreciate any help.
