  • IPhone 6 no camera access from lock screen

    iPhone 6 with iOS 8.1
    When I try to swipe the camera icon from the lock screen, then camera app will almost open and immediately closes upon release of swiping finger.  Thus, I can't access the camera without unlocking the phone.  Is this a privacy setting I am missing?

    Go to Genral>Reset>Reset all content and setting.

    Why can't I see the camera button? Is this a setting somewhere?

  • Camera option from lock screen missing

    I updated to the iOS5 and while I love some of the new features one feature is missing.  The camera option form the lock screen is not showing up.  Is there something in settings that I have not selected or something I missed.  Thanks for your help. 

    Double tap the home button while on the lock screen, the camera button is there.

  • IPhone 6 Camera from lock screen, closes after 1 second...

    When I access the camera from the lock screen, it opens for about one second then just blacks out to a screen off mode. I can still get to camera the long way by unlocking screen and clicking on icon, but want to know why the shortcut from lock screen is buggy. Please advise.

    I'm not sure what you meant with the first part of your reply. However, the reset seems to returned behaviors to normal... so thanks for that.
    Not that it matters much now, but again, the issue was that I wasn't able to go directly into camera mode from Lock Screen... the camera app would appear for one second, then the screen would just go into sleep mode. Unlocking screen with passcode or Touch ID worked fine then opening apps from there all worked fine. Just the camera shortcut from Lock Screen as the issue, but now it is resolved.

  • HT5858 Bug with control centre? - only accessible from lock screen

    I cannot access Control Center from my home screens or within apps, only from the Lock Screen - very annoying if I want to switch my music output for example or use the torch.
    My settings are on for both access from Lock Screen and Access from within Apps.
    Is this a bug or I am doing something wrong?

    Hello Adrian Biffen,
    After reviewing your post, it sounds like you can't access Control Center from inside apps. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
    Use Control Center on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
    If you're using an app that uses similar swipe gestures, like Maps or games, you might have to swipe up twice: once to reveal the handle for Control Center, and a second time to reveal Control Center. 
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Have a nice day,
    Mario

  • How do I turn off the Camera access from the lock screen

    how do I turn off the Camera access from the lock screen ?

    Only by hiding the camera via Restrictions. Settings>General>Restrictions. That hides the camera when unlocked unless you go to Restrictions  and unset that Restriction. That is not way currently from just preventing camera access only from the lock screen

    Press the home button once to wake the phone into lock mode.  Then press it twice while in lock screen and you will see camera button to right of slide.

  • Xperia Z3 Compact camera error when starting from locked screen (symbol lock)

    Hi
    I'm a new owner of Xperia Z3 Compact and I have noticed a problem when launching camera. The app itself works perfectly well but when trying to launch camera from locked phone (screen locked with symbol) it shows only black screen with error message that camera app it unaccessible. After removing lock screen protection both camera symbol on lock screen and dedicated camera button works as intended. Is it supposed to be that way? On my previous phone I could launch camera app without unlocking screen but couldn't access any other parts of the phone. I'd love to have it working the same way here especially with the dedicated camera button.
    Hoping for a fast answer. 
    Regards
    Huma

    You may need to perform a software repair using PC Companion.The process will erase all internal memory.You might need to charge your device for about 1-2 hours before so the device has at least 60% battery.
    Make sure the device is not connected to computer or laptop and turned off (sometimes you have to press power button and volume up until the device vibrates 3 times or on some devices you have to press the small button near the SIM tray or on the back of the device).
    Open PC companion->support zone->phone/tablet software update->repair my phone/tablet blue highlighted.Follow the steps given,do not connect your phone until prompted to press volume down while plugging USB cable. If PC companion does not start the repair process, you might need to run it in compatibility mode with Windows 7 (in some cases XP).
    All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us - J.R.R. Tolkien

    This thing does not happen on my wife's iPhone 5 or my iPad Air.

    Did you check Settings>Control Center>Access on Lock Screen and make sure it's set to ON?

  • Using IOS 5, but no camera from lock-screen or Week view in Calendar, as promised. What can I do?

    Using IOS 5, but no camera from lock-screen or Week view in Calendar, as promised. What can I do?

    Thanks. I don't know if it seems obvious to everyone, but it shouldn't be needed to double click to seet it. If anyone finds out why there isn't a week view in the Calendar native app, or a way to make it avaiable I would be thankfull. If not, I will continue using third party app for that purpose.
