My Nikon D60 flash won't work

The built in flash on my nikon d60 won't work. The camera is on auto and when I go to take a photo, the flash does pop up but it won't flash when the photo is taken. I don't want to send my camera into Nikon if I can help it.

How to change the shutter speed of a Nikon D3100?

I recently moved and I'm not sure where my D3100 manual is. I've been searching for awhile and I can't seem to figure how to change the shutter speed. I know I have to use the spinny thing at the top and switch it to S but thats as far as I get. I'm still not sure how to change it so that its slower or faster.

Best lenses/equipment for weddings?

I'm just getting out of the "amateur" stage of photography, and have shot weddings before. I used a Nikon D7000, and the lenses I used were the Sigma 17-70mm, Nikkor 50mm 1.8, and the Nikon 18-105mm. I'm looking to get a couple of better lenses for this coming year's weddings. Which 2 should I get? I was thinking another prime lens, and another telephoto lens. I'm not worried about a price tag, and want the best (that will work well with my DX until I get full frame)

Would getting the Nikon 85mm 1.4 be too much work to use on a crop frame?
I was also thinking of the Nikon 55-300 mm, would that work for weddings?
I have an assistant that would be using a telephoto in the back and I would probably use the 17-70 up front, and a prime for portraits.

I'm self-taught, so forgive me if I don't make sense or have the 'photographer lingo' or whatever it is that makes them sound like pros, lol.

I guess another question I could ask is: What all should be in my bag as a wedding photographer?

So far I have:
Nikon D7000
Sigma 17-70mm
Nikkor 50mm 1.8
Nikon 18-105mm
Nikon SB700 flash (plus diffusers, bounce cards, etc)
Tripod
Reflector
Total of 48GB of memory cards
2 extra camera batteries
16 rechargeable AA batteries for flash
Remote shutter release

We will be getting a second camera in March, also.

Added (1). We're getting a second camera, flash, etc in March. Along with another lens or 2.

My shutter speed isn't the same time as what i'm setting on my camera?

I noticed this. That in Shutter or manual mode when i'm taking pictures. My shutter speed, if I set it to 30 seconds for example. It closes in 10 seconds, 11 seconds. Or anything I have not set! It's just lesser for lesser times.a 5 second exposure becomes 1 or 2 seconds. Can anyone tell me what's wrong? I'm using a Nikon D5100.

Added (1). And my camera is in good condition. Just a few months old. I use it occasionally.never dropped it.didn't expose it to any damage. Only connect to my laptop for transferring pictures.used the memory card to load picture controls. Thats all.
