Why won't my nikon d3000 focus on autofocus?

Its not even a year old
i've never dropped it
i'm using the lens that it came with from the box

it works fine on manual focus but when i switch to auto focus itll focus in and out but the shutter won't snap.
its not too dark because i'm always in a well lit room
i've tried cleaning the connections on the lens and body,
the lens itself is clean
the lens and body are both set on autofocus

i have no idea what's going on.
sometimes itll be fine then right in the middle of shooting itll start doing it and sometimes itll be it right from the moment i turn it on and sometimes not at all

Nikon D3000 settings

I have a Nikon Digital Camera D3000 and a AF-S NIKKOR 18-55mm 1:3.5-5.6G lens, and I want to do a photoshoot by a motel. The only light I want to use is from the motel signs/lights. What settings would I have to use to take good lighting photos without flash? I try many different settings but if there ever is a good one it comes out blurry because the shutter takes too long. Any ideas?

Beach Photography with a manual focus lens?

I'm going to get a 50mm 1.8 nikkor lens for portraits (but i figure i could use it for other things). The manual focus is 100 bucks cheaper than the AF-S.

So my question is, can you capture pictures of waves with manual focus? Does it just take practice? It seems somewhat difficult…

The reason i want a low light lens for the beach is for sunset/sunrise.
What lens is best for beach photography? I'm jsut talking about general pictures taken from the shore (not like from inside of a wave).

btw i have a nikon d3000

Will my camera be okay in the rainforest?

I have a Nikon D40X with a standard Nikon 18-55mm lens and two Sigma lenses (telephoto and a macro). I'm going to the Amazon rainforest in Ecuador for 3 weeks and we have been told "nothing will dry, bring dry bags, you'll be damp all the time", that sort of thing. Will the dampness get into my camera or lenses? Should I take precautions? I'll obviously have cases for them all but I'll probably have them out for long periods of time. I'll try to take at least two of my lenses.

I'm buying a DSLR for my little brother for his birthday late summer. I'm planning to buy the D3200 bvody only with a very sharp tamron lens. But I can't find any info about the compatibility with the Tamron 17-50mm f2.8 lens? It's the non VC version. You know with the no internal focusing motor and all…
