ok my canon elph 110 point and shoot camera always stops at 4gb even though there's 4gb left on the card . I researched and it said it's the limit then I have to hit record again. I can't do this when i'm recording volleyball games since i'm playing. How do I make my camera record continuously without stopping.

You cannot
The 4 gb per video file is a physical restriction caused by the FAT32 format used by memory cards.
Since you can get from 17 to 20 minutes on a 4 gb file, it is no different than when we used to shoot 16 mm or 35 mm motion pictures
400 feet of 16 mm film only captured 11 minutes at 24 frame/s
400 feet of 35 mm film only captured 3.5 minutes worth of film.
So the 4 gb limit of from 17-20 minutes is actually a blessing to videographers
In order to shoot such long takes, you need to buy a mini-DV video camera and buy 60 minute tapes
