The error message explains your problem in a somewhat obscure manner.  The cameras USB function is designed to work only one way which is to download images.  Trying to copy to the camera from a PC is "beyond device limits"
You need to place your cameras SD card into a card reader so it will have both read/write functionality.

My mother in law has a cool pix L120. How does she transfer photos from the cameras internal memory to a SIM card?

The only time the camera puts images on INTERNAL memory is when you do not have a SD card in the camera.

When I have an SD in my Coolpix camera and I want to get the images on my computer I take OUT the SD card and put it in the slot in my computer.

The only way to access images ON the camera's internal memory is to have the Computer access the camera via USB. You should be able to see the camera when you plug it in via USB you can copy images from the camera.

You can copy all of the images on the camera to a folder on your computer.

If you can read the SD card on the computer you can copy the images from your computer (folder you made) to the PROPER FOLDER on the SD card. The proper folder is a XXXNIKON Named folder. (I am assuming you took at least one IMAGE with the SD card in the camera.

It doesn't have an SD slot but you could try the USB, HDMI or VGA inputs.

For HDMI, if you have a DVD or Bluray player that has an SD card reader; for USB, if you have a USB SD reader, or copy your files to a USB flash drive; for VGA, if your laptop has an SD reader, transfer the files to the laptop and show it via your VGA input.

I want to transfer pics from the memory of my non active phone. How can I do it?

Either just transfer the SD card to the new phone and copy off what you need? Or get a USB SD card reader and use that or get a SIM card reader and use that or indeed put the old SIM in the new phone and transfer any data over and swap back. Or use software and hookup the phone to the PC via USB and copy the data over, then hook up the new phone to the USB and copy it back.

Sony dsc w30 i have transfered pics from camera to my laptop many times now it is not working and camera says usb connecting

Try NOT connecting your camera to your computer.

The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB or FireWire). This is likely to be faster than connecting the camera to the computer, and won't run down your camera's batteries.

Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system's drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer's hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or you can use any photo cataloging program.

How do I transfer pictures taken by my LG CF 360 phone to my PC?

The USB cable does not work apparently, UNLESS you have a micro SD card inserted. You also have to manually transfer the pictures from the phone's internal memory to the SD card first, then you can transfer them to the PC via the USB cable. The USB connector on the phone is one of the new USB micro A or micro B connectors - make sure you get the correct one. It looks like the one on the phone charger.

SD card

Once connected to your PC you can copy virtually any file to the SD card and transport it home. However, in doing so you do risk the possibility that the camera may not be able to properly display the existing images on its LCD screen. The files won't be damaged, so they can be manually copied to the PC afterwards. In a similar situation, .JPG images you obtain from other sources can be coped to the SD card for temporary storage, but the camera may not display them properly. In any of the above cases when a problem is experienced, manually copy the files to te PC anf reformat the SD card IN THE CAMERA.
