Ошибка при отмене showInputDialog

Я хочу создать диалоговое окно ввода при создании новой записи и сохранить ввод пользователя как ввод в файл.

Вот код:

String input = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, "Enter name :  ", "New Record!", 1);                //This to let user input name
    try
    {
        JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Thanks for playing.", "Thanks", 1);            //Show this dialog after user input
        HighestScoreFile.HighestScoreFile(input, hours, minutes, seconds, click);                 //Store the data into a file, the `method` is in another class.
    }
    catch(IOException ex){}

Когда нет пользовательского ввода или какого-либо ввода, кнопка OKработает нормально, но если я нажму отменить, он возвращает следующие ошибки:
