Fujifilm S5100 says it's out of batteries, but it's not :(

My S5100 says it's out of batteries but it's not.

I measured my alkine's at ~1.45 volts for a pair of duracell and ~1.36 volts for a pair of sony's. It says it's out of batteries. I also have some rechargeable's that measure ~1.2 volts it also doesn't like those.

It shuts off after a minutes or to buy itself with the red battery thing in the middle of the screen. What's going on here?

probably a bad connector, this is probably a shot in the dark but maybe try cleaning the silver connector's with rubbing alcohol... might be totally wrong but hey, it wont hurt it. great camera by the way!
