When i take a picture, it either pops up sensor cleaning, or that the sensor can not read the lens.. please help!!

If the spot is in all foto's and in a video, it is most likely not the lens. Could be a dead pixel (some pixels). But almost certain a spec of dust or othes debris that entered the camera.
Because this camera came with a fixed zoom lens, there is no sensor cleaning option. And I can't find a posibility to make a dust retentie picture.
To check if the spot is on the sensor, put the camera in manual, set aperatur to the greatest figure (smallest opening) an make a picture of a white object. If you see the spot, you were spot on. When the camera is new, this could be a reason, to go to your dealer and ask a new camera. Take the dust retentie picture with you.

Are you talking about spots you see on the pictures? Are these spots you see in the same place on all the pictures? If you really want to see if your sensor is dirty pick a clear day with a great blue sky focus to infinity and then shift the lens to manual focus and the program to "P" take a pitch of the blue sky. Then down load this picture to the computer and open it up to 100% and look it over if there are spots then the sensor should be cleaned. Even if you take the lens off and look into the camera body you still can't see the sensor all you are looking at is the mirror inside the prism box.
To clean the sensor you need to put the camera into "clean" mode which locks the mirror up. It may be possible you just have a dirty lens or UV filter.

Before testing your sensor look at and clean the front element of your lens or lenses, clean with the proper lens cloth don't use liquid lens cleaner instead just huff on the lens to create a little moisture and clean off with the lens cloth. That's a lens cloth not tissue, also remove the lens and keep teh camera body mount facing down so not dirty falls into the cavity and ot put the body cap on.

Check the lens rear element for dirt partials and remove carefully if there is, remove body cap and install the lens back onto the camera.

Next I'm going to give you a quick test method to actually see if your camera sensor is dirty.

On a good clear day with blue sky go outside switch the camera to "P" program focus on a subject at infinity then shift the lens to manual focus. Point the lens skyward to a clear patch of blue and take the picture(s) Now down load this picture to your computer and enlarge it to at least 50% I use 100% but I'm way fussy and my prints can go to poster size so i need clean/

Anyway look closely at that blue sky if you see spots of black then the sensor is dirty and needs to be cleaned by you or a professional. There are special kits for cleaning sensors on the market BUT, make sure you are confident it what you are doing because the sensor is extremely sensitive to damage. Read your manual on this cleaning function.

Sounds like dust on the sensor. Google the words "cleaning a DSLR sensor" and you will find sites explaining the cleaning procedure with pictures and places to get the supplies needed.

Your lens would need to be absolutely filthy with enormous dirt specks to cause the fault you describe. Dust, fingerprints, and regular minor debris simply doesn't show in the final image. In any case, you cannot clean inside the lens without dismantling it and that is a job for experienced specialists only.

Your fault is a dirty image sensor. You can buy sensor cleaning kits, but if you're inexperienced with them or trying to clean the sensor in a dusty environment you'll just make matters worse. Many camera shops offer sensor cleaning while you wait at relatively low cost. The reason you don't see the dirt when taking the picture is either because you're looking through the optical viewfinder or because the LCD screen simply doesn't magnify the image enough to show the marks which are present in the image.

You can prevent the dirt from reoccurring by never leaving the camera with the lens throat open for more than strictly necessary, and by always trying to keep the open lens throat pointing slightly down when swapping lenses.

I hope that I've helped, please take a moment to rate my answer.

This error relates to the lens not being mounted correctly

if you've got a non G-series lens (it HAS an aperture ring), you'll get the F EE message if the lens isn't stopped down to 22, and you're not in M mode. Also check the contacts on the lens... make sure they're clean. Normally, the CHA error will pop up if it's a CF card problem.

err 99 means there is moisture inside of the camera, probably inside the hot shoe

try to clean dvd plaer lens with a lens cleaner...

Hope the problem is not with the sensor. First try cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth. If you can't get a microfiber cloth, use a clean cotton cloth. If you can still see some smears on the lens, put two drops of lens cleaning solution on the cloth and wipe carefully.
If you still find these bubbles, take the camera immediately to an authorized service center.

Cleaning the lens and CMOS (Canon uses CMOS instead of CCD sensors) would be the first thing I would do. Before an expensive cleaning (usually at least $60) try getting a blower and blowing off the lens and sensor (find the sensor cleaning thing in the yellow section of the cameras menu, select it, the mirror will lock up, take off the lens, blow on the sensor with the blower)
For the lens, besides the blower, use a microfiber cloth on it.

If the problem persists, almost any camera store will clean cameras. Try Ritz cameras, here is a list of their stores in NY city.
