According the camera manual, troubleshooting section, page 286, if you shoot continuously with the built-in flash at short intervals, the flash might stop operating to protect the flash unit.

After I have detached my external flash (Nissin Digital Speedlite Di622), my Canon EOS 60D does not recognize the fact that the external flash is already detached. Thus, this does not allow the built-in flash to pop out when needed.
I have tried turning the power off and on again. The problem persists.

Hi, What external flash did you use on your Canon 60D? The internal flash will not automatically pop up if in the "Creative Zone" it will pop up with the button in the creative zones (M, AV, TV and P) it will not pop up with the button if you are in the the full auto mode (that's the little green box mode) but, should pop up automatically if required. The flash should pop up automatically in the basic zone for Portrait, close up and night photography, the button won't activate (pop up) the flash. Also the internal flash will not pop up if there is an accessory in the hot shoe. Again what external flash was it you used and did it flash?

you have to take it out of auto mode to have any control over flash, try putting it in P mode then press the flash button which is next to the flash. if this doesn't work, take it back to where you got it from to take a closer look.

Hi,
First remove the batteries from your camera and switch it off for 10 minutes and then insert new batteries and switch it on. In most case, you won't get the error message.
If you still get the message then there tends to be a problem with flash lamp. The inner conductivity between flash lamp and circuit board is causing you this error. You need to take to service center to get it repaired.
Hope this helps.

Hello,
Usually if my flash isn't firing I check to see if the flash is mounted into the hotshoe properly. I take it off the camera, put it back on and tighten it down then test it.
If that doesn't work then check the display of the flash and see what mode you are on or if the display is flashing. If it is flashing then the wide angle adapter may be covering the flash which you will need to take off and put back inside the flash. It's that white plastic tab that slides in and out of the flash head.
Hopefully that will fix it.
