Help. My camera app stopped working after I deleted the DCIM file.

I had to delete the DCIM because the gallery app didn't work on my Galaxy Nexus. After I did that though, the gallery worked but now my camera app tells me to "Mount USB storage before using the camera."

Google hasn't helped at all. Is my camera just SOL now?

EDIT: I'm an idiot. I forgot to reboot. I'm all good now!

well if you deleted the folder just re add it.
plug the phone on to you pc and add it.

also try shutting off the phone and taking the sd card out then put it back it.
