svn: Failed to add directory 'trunk': object of the same name already exists

Hi,
 I have a folder named myproject in svn repository. The myproject contains 3 subfolders branches,tags and trunk.
 I had to download it to my local machine. I was able to download using
     svn co  https://svn.url.com/myproject
 No problem in this.
But I want to update my code in local machine from the svn repository frequently to receive new changes from repository.
When I tried using
    svn update
    it is displaying an error like
svn: Failed to add directory 'trunk': object of the same name already exists.

I have already made some changes in my trunk folder files. So I should be able to retain my changes as well as receive changes from the svn repository.

How can I solve this problem and update my local copy of the code from repository?

Awaiting for your reply.
Thanks in Advance.
Athi.
