My rear camera on my iphone 5 no longer works in camera app after ios 7 install

My iphone 5 updated to ios 7 and the new camera app no longer works. Sometimes I can get the front camera to
Show on the app. But the rear camera just shows black. And it won't switch bewtween the two cameras at all
Sometimes. What could this be?

I got the same problem with my iphone 5 rear camera and tried the solutions suggested here but it did not work.
The camera application which came with ios7 is frozen as soon as it opens. I does not take photos or switch between cameras.
I have been able to use the front camera with Snapseed, QR reader . however no application is able to open my rear camera.
I am not sure but it can related with the application updates either ios7 or the camera applications already installed on our iphone. Uninstalling those apps which has access to camera and rebooting may solve the problem. This is just an idea !

Help!!! iphone 5 rear camera blurry after iOS 7.0.6 update.

Help!!!! I just updated my iPhone 5 software to iOS 7.0.6. I realized that my rear camera became blurry. It won't focus even if I tap in the middle. There are no physical problems with the camera itself. I checked. Plus the camera is quite fine when the object is near but it can't focus on objects 2 feet away. What should I do?

If the issue reappears, try the same steps. Also, you can try restoring as a new device: iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device
If the wi-fi remains greyed out, your device needs service.
If within warranty, it should be free.
If not, it will probably cost $199 USD + tax.

IPhone 4s No Longer connects to Car Bluetooth after iOS 7.1 Update

My iPhone 4s has been paired to our 2006 Acura TL hands free link (Bluetooth) and working flawlessly for more than a year. After the iOS 7.1 update installed on my iPhone the connection has been lost and the car's Bluetooth does not recognize, and will not pair with my iPhone anymore! I noticed there were two back-to-back updates for iOS7. The first one caused intermittent interruptions and lost connections with the iPhone. The second update completely destroyed the connection between the car bluetooth and the iPhone. Any ideas on how to correct this problem would certainly be appreciated. Thanks!

Hello algee1,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with pairing your iPhone with your Acura.
In my experience, when updates are released for iOS devices, compatible devices release an update to maintain compatibility. Step 2 from the article below recommends checking with the manufacturer of your car stereo to see if there is a firmware update available for your car stereo:
2. Update software and firmware if necessary
Verify that both your car stereo and your device have the latest software versions. Contact the manufacturer to see if any updates are available. If your device does not have the latest version of the iOS, update to the latest software version.
I recommend reviewing the full article here for additional troubleshooting steps:
iOS: Troubleshooting car stereo connections
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3581
I also recommend these steps if the issue persists after following all the steps in the previous article:
Unable to find nearby Bluetooth accessories
If a pairing record already exists, the device does not appear as discoverable. Try to connect the device using that pairing record.
If you are unable to connect using the existing pairing record, delete the record and pair again.
Ensure that the firmware or software on the Bluetooth accessory is up to date.
Ensure that the Bluetooth accessory is charged or connected to power.
Verify that the Bluetooth accessory is using a profile that works with the iOS device.
Turn off both the iOS device and the Bluetooth accessory, then turn both devices on again.
If the issue persists, test Bluetooth with another device or consult the manufacturer's documentation.

When my iPhone rings so does my wife's phone after iOS 8 installed

I updated all our Apple products to IOS 8 last night. I have 2 iPad 3's, iPhone 5s,iPhone 5c and a macbook pro.
Now when someone calls my phone it rings on both iPad's and iPhone's. What can I do to fix this?

Open Settings then tap FaceTime and turn iPhone Cellular Calls to off.

Rand new iPhone 5s black, dead, won't power up after ios 7 upgrade...held down top button, held down home button...dead. Was fully charged, working fine tell said yes to upgrade. HELP!!!

Brand new iPhone 5s dead, black won't come on after ios update...is fully charged, was working fine till said yes to upgrade. Did not watch process beyond seeing Apple logo appear, left it alone, came back, dead. Tried holding top button, tried home button, nothing...HELP!!!

If iTunes does not recognize your iPhone even if it’s plugged in, you may need to put it into DFU (Device Firmware Update) mode. If you have to put the device in DFU mode, you will most likely be unable to back it up.
Hold Power button for 3 seconds and then the Power and Home together for 10 seconds (exactly).
Release Power but keep holding home until the your iPhone shows up in iTunes.

HT201210 cant find my camera app after the ios 7 update and no airdrop

No Airdrop for iPhone 4S. And the Camera should be the same place it was before. Did you try searching Spotlight for it?

My iphone is no longer working I have black screen with a picture of the itunes logo and a USB cable. When I try to connect my iphone to itunes the device is not detected, can anyone help me? I desperatley need my phone back

I have had a 3GS for 2+ years. After upgrading to IOS 4 (now 4.3.5) I began having problems. In the past week, my screen went to the itunes logo and USB cable twice -- unprovoked -- just found it sitting there like that! I connected to itunes and it did restore from a backup but it is a major inconvenience. I am also searching for answers, but better back-up regularly!

Synching calendars between itunes and iphone 5 no longer works.

Syncing calendars between itunes and iphone 5 no longer works. I do not get any errors, however calendar items are not updated.
I am syncing via USB on a Windows 8 computer. It worked a couple of weeks ago. Since then itunes has had its weekly update, my IOS may have been updated, and I've run a malware removal program on my computer. I curently have iTunes 11.1.3.8 and iOS 7.0.4. I read the posts and verified ICloud was turned off.
I really need to be able to sync my computer and iphone again. Any suggestions?

So you'll either need to attempt further repair yourself or take the iPhone to some unauthorized repair shop, pay them, and hope they fix it correctly.
The iPhone 5 has no Touch ID, and an iPhone 5S should still be under warranty, so I'm puzzled as to what you really have and were attempting. If you do have a 5S, why you didn't get it serviced under warranty?
Regards.

IPhone 3GS no longer works with bluetooth since ios 4.3.2 update

Hi all. Since the ios 4.3.2 update my iPhone 3GS no longer works correctly with the bluetooth in my car (2006 Acura TL). I know it's not an issue with the car and the only thing that has changed is the update with the phone. Anybody else having this issue? I have unpaired, tried to re-pair, reset the network settings, reset all of the settings, and did a restore. I'm at a loss with what to do next.
Any thoughts?
Thanks

Its becoming a problem of epic proportions...so many people are having the exact same problem...I have a Feb 2010 Toyota Land Cruiser Series 200 and since upgrading to OS 4 my USB function no longer works like it did before the upgrade.
My Apple has become a LEMON!!
Would be nice to hear that Apple recognises there is a problem...buut maybe they are too busy counting all their money to care!!

My 3GS iphone voicemail no longer works

My 3GS iPhone voicemail no longer works after installing OS 4.2. My ATT voicemail box still works ok. I've reset the password and network. Any ideas? ATT can't help as they think its a problem with the phone.

A call comes in, gets listed as a missed call and shows up as missed call. No indication nor a message saying that a voice mail has been left. When I dial my ATT voice mail box by holding down the 1 key, I have a message waiting. Used to be when voice mail arrived there would be an indicator lit on the voice mail icon on the phone and I could listen to the voice mail via the visual voice mail on the phone.

My Iphone 4S no longer works it's wifi connection as well as the share internet option

My iPhone 4S no longer works it's wifi connection nor it's internet share option

That's unfortunate.
Do you have a question?

After iOS 5 install on iPhone 4 my "other" category in iTunes is huge.

After iOS 5 install on iPhone 4 my "other" category in iTunes is huge. I can't find any clues as to why. Anyone else have this issue or any clues? I now only have 1gb left whereas before iOS5 I had 9 it's a bit strange. This isn't a complaint btw, just trying to problem solve!
Gracias.

I have noticed the same thing! Any suggestions??? I also notice that when I uncheck the boxes for not including music videos and voice memos the size of the music folder increases, and it does it so much so that I exceed the space on my phone.

HT201406 why is the iphone 3G 4.2.1 so slow? after ios 4 on iphone 3G i don't want this phone anymore. So disapointed about apple!!!

why is the iphone 3G 4.2.1 so slow? after ios 4 on iphone 3G i don't want this phone anymore. So disapointed about apple!!!

First try Resetting it: hold down the home and sleep buttons, ignore the red Off slider, wait for the Apple logo, let go of the buttons.
If that does not work Restore your iPhone in iTunes.

No Camera App after restore from backup on iphone 4

OK so I backedup my iphone 3g which was on 312 on itunes 9.2 before my iphone 4 arrived today. I restored from backup and all of my apps restored. I can't seem to find the camera app! It's driving me crazy that I am trying restore the iphone 4 as a new phone but downloading the iOS4 firmware for iphone 4 is taking more than 3 hours for some reason.
Has anyone seen this?

Why not? If old data is recovered by restoring, then new data after last back up lose. If keep new data after last back up remain, lost old data can't be regained, even may be user's lack of knowledge, iPhone should not be for the people of one class...I am really sad for all who suffer the lost of their hearts (valuable data that can never be recalled) like me. How can I continue to use idevices?????

Macro focus on iPhone 5s no longer works

My iPhone 4 took fantastic macro photos. Jump to I finally upgraded to an iPhone 5s and it did macro images at the beginning but after the first update, it no longer wants to focus. I know it CAN since it will focus to the correct spot then jumps back to "uhhhh I can't focus on that" mode. Is this a hardware issue or software issue? Also, why is this: iPhone 5 camera autofocus question the only discussion I can find on the topic. I can't be the only one.

Hi Michelle,
If you are having difficulty with the focus on your iPhone’s camera, I would suggest troubleshooting using the steps found in this article -
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
Specifically -
Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
Try to remain steady while focusing:
Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Brett L
