Wireless flash set up?

I have Nikon SB600 and new Pocket wizard Plus X.
I know how to triger SB600 wirelessly in TTL mode.
What I want is to use Plus X so that I can triger SB600 when it's blocked (IR doesn't fire).
Plus X doesn't support TTL so I need to go manually.
If I have SU-4 on camera, and put Plus X on top of SU-4… Will it triger wirelessly SB600 (with Plus X of course)?
And will manuall settings for SB600 work, I guess it will?

How long does it take Nikon to ship item (s)?

I ordered a Nikon SB-400 speed-light flash unit about 2 days ago. I haven't heard anything back from Nikon about my order other than the order confirmation (invoice) e-mail. I'm really excited to receive this item, but would like to have a general idea of when to expect it to arrive. If any one has had an experience with the Nikon store and shipping experiences with them, please share.

Aperture ring lock on Sigma 70-300mm lens?

I have a Sigma 70-300mm lens for Nikon. It is giving me an error which generally means that one does not have the aperture ring locked. I would love to lock the ring but I can't figure out how to. Does anyone here have this lens and have advice on how to fix it?

Here is a link to the manual (thank you Gary Huston)

The aperture issue is listed on page 2:
<For Nikon AF/MF, Minolta MF>
When you use the program exposure mode or the Shutter speed priority auto mode, the Diaphragm control ring must be set to the smallest F-stop (i.e.largest number). All Nikon AF/MF lenses have a safety button which should be moved to the lock position (fig2).

And on page one, fig2 is shown an aperture ring and its lock button.

I have the Nikon version of this lens. "All Nikon AF/MF lenses have a safety button which should be moved to the lock position (fig2)." I can't find either the aperture ring or safety button. How is it possible I can't find this component of my lens? I should note that I had this problem a few years back, remember finding a switch, switching it and the problem was solved. I really wish I remember how I did that…

Super thanks to anyone who can solve this mystery.

I recently upgraded my laptop to Windows 8, but now it won't read my memory card?

Well, title basically says all.
I recently upgraded my laptop to Windows 8, but no it won't read my camera's memory card. I just got back from a trip so it's a big disappointment on my part. My memory card is a Kingston SD4 8GB that came with my Nikon camera.
I already made sure it's not on Lock. When I put it in it doesn't read anything at all.

Added (1). I have a Dell Inspiron M5030, and I already tried visiting the website. I put in my service tag, but Windows 8 32bit isn't available in the BIOS List (Only options are Windows 7 32bit/64bit).

Can i bring my camera into warped tour?

The website says you can bring digital or disposable cameras but not proffesional ones. Mine is a nikon with the detachable lens and i don't know if it would be considered "professional". Has anyone tried this? Were you let in?
