Camera app acting weird - not saving photos - iphone 6 plus

I just got my iphone 6 plus... I'm trying to use the stock camera app and it's acting weird. I'm able to focus and take a photo... after I take a pic, you know how the little thumbnail of that photo appears on the bottom left of the app? You should be able to touch that and then view in full screen your last pic, right? Well here is when it starts acting up... When I touch it, nothing happens! I exit the app and go to the photos app and my picture isn't there! The app doesn't appear to freeze - as I can still view the screen and what the camera is looking at! Before the 1st photo is "taken" I am able to choose between any of the photo types (square, pano, video, slo mo, time lapse)... but the same thing will happen no matter which photo I choose. If I pick a video, the video begins and then the touch part doesn't work... the video will run on 'forever' or until i press the home button - in which case the video isn't saved.
I have restarted my phone many times... and even done the power cycle (where you hold the sleep/lock and home button at same time)
Any ideas? Please help - this is a 2 day old phone and the camera doesn't work properly.
What is really weird is that I can post a photo taken by instagram with no problem.. I can also use the Camera Awesome app but the photos aren't saved in the photos app... even if I try to export to camera roll in camera awesome!
Thanks

Hey Bender1031,
Thanks for the question, I can definitely understand how frustrating this issue may be with a brand new phone. Great troubleshooting so far by already attempting a restart and reset. If the issue persists, let’s try restoring your device and updating to the latest software (iOS 8.0.2):
Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
After erasing and setting up as a new device, your device is now in a factory configuration. Test to determine if erasing and setting up as a new device resolved the issue. Content on the device may have caused unexpected behavior.
- If the issue is still present, you may want to contact Apple Support.
- If the issue is now resolved, sync one type of content at a time back to the device. For example, if you had an issue playing music, add songs from iTunes and confirm they will play. If your contacts weren't loading successfully, add the contacts back. After each sync, test to see if the issue has returned.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Photo from iMessage saved to my camera role, how come the saved photo is not available to edit with iPhoto on my iPhone?

When I save a photo from iMessage to my camera role, how come the saved photo is not available to edit with iPhoto on my iPhone?

I tapped a photo in Messages to vie it full screen.
Tapped the Share icon and saved it to my camera roll.
Opened iPhoto for iOS and my image library updated. After the update I could see the image in my camera roll. I selected the amera roll, then tapped the image I had copied from Messages. I was able to edit the photo with no problem.
Did you follow this same procedure or ry to copy the little thumbnail photo from Messages?

Nokia 1520 not saving photos

Is anyone else having issues with thier 1520 randomly not saving pictures when using Nokia Camera for default photo app. For some reason my camera is now frequently not saving the photos. A camera reset works, but then in a few hours it stops saving again for no apparent reason. Kind of sick of having to always do camera resets and then lossing my photos.

No such issues here. Happily clicking away and saving everything. You could if you want, try a reset and failing that, perhaps there may be an issue with the memory which would probably require a trip to your local Nokia Care Point. Alternatively, you may also consider bringing it back to thge retailer for a replacement.

I have verified permissions via Disk Utility, but that hasnt helped.
Any ideas?

I have fixed it! All I did was to select "replace all information in iPhone from Maill" and worked.

My kids now each have an itouch, should we all have different apple ids even if I am paying for all itunes and app store purchases? what about icloud? I would like to share itunes and app purchases, but not necessarily photos...help please!

The recommended solution for most families is to share the same Apple ID for iTunes and App Store purchases, so you can share your purchases, but us different IDs for iMessage, FaceTime and iCloud. With this arrangement, each person can automatically download purchases made on the shared ID (by turning this feature on in Settings>iTunes & App Stores), while keeping their FaceTime calls, text messages and iCloud data (including photo stream) separated. There is no requirement that the ID you use for purchasing be the same as the ID you use for these other services.

Iphone 5S camera roll acting weird

Hi could I please get some help with my iPhone 5S?
I went travelling and used my iphone 4S to take pictures and set up the photostream for my mum to save the pictures onto my 5S. Everything was fine until i got home and put them onto my iphoto. There were some photos that were then saved into my camera roll that would show a thumbnail of one picture and when i look into the picture, a different picture would show up. I have no idea what happened. I tried to plug it back onto iphoto and looked through iphoto and the pictures on iphoto were fine.
Please anyone help me fix this.

Delete them from the Camera Roll and sync them to your iPhone as intended.

Camera not saving photos correctly

I can take photos with my camera but in the corner where the photo taken shows up, it shows loading bars like it's trying to do something with the photo. When I click there or try to open the photos taken on any of the apps to open photos, it starts loading indefinitely with a black background. Those photos also don't open in the computer. It's like the camera is having difficulties saving the photos correctly.I've tried restaring the phone, stopping and clearing the data for the Camera app, but nothing seems to have worked so far. Do you have any ideas of what to do?

Try performing a system repair using PC Companion as this will often fix issues - This will factory reset your phone and erase all data so best to backup before you begin
Switch off your phone and unplug from Pc (Hold volume up and power for around 10 seconds)
Start PC Companion and select Support zone then Update my phone/tablet then in Blue Repair my phone/tablet and follow the on screen instructions - When prompted connect your phone still switched off holding volume down or back button - This should start the repair or reformat process
If you are using Windows 8/8.1 or a 64bit operating system then adjust the settings for PC Companion and run in compatibility mode and chose Windows 7 or XP

Pop Art function is acting weird (not really acting normal)

On my isight camera (it is built in) pop art is acting weird! You know how there are 4 different coloured sections. Not all 4 are appearing. Only the upper left one is.... Why is that? Please help!

Hello again, mariah
Unless you erase your hard disk as part of your reinstallation, your data files should be safe on your iMac's startup disk. Whether you erase or not, your data files will be safe on your backup copy, so be sure you have a good backup! If you do not have a current backup, NOW is the time to backup your important files. Having at least one good backup copy of expensive or irreplaceable information is good insurance regardless of whether you decide to reinstall OS X.
Sorry about the Leopard reference. You can reinstall the Photo Booth that came with your Tiger version of OS X using the same methods I mention above except that they will be in your Tiger disk.
Although you may decide that you want to reinstall your Mac OS, you do NOT need to do so to reinstall Photo Booth and your OS X bundled applications. If you have decided to Reinstall your Mac OS, carefully consider which method you want to use to reinstall.
If you use the "Archive and Install" (A&I) method and choose A&I's "Preserve user and network settings" option, your data will be preserved and you will save significant time versus other reinstall methods.
Unless you have already tried reinstalling only the Photo Booth application or are having problems with more than one of your iMac's functions, you should consider reinstalling only the Photo Booth app first. Reinstalling only the Photo Booth app may resolve your problem without the time and effort required for reinstalling your Mac OS. See the "Reinstalling the Software That Came With Your iMac G5" chapter of the Users Guide manual that came with your iMac if you need help on how to reinstall the apps only. Alternatively, you could use the Pacifist method I mentioned earlier with the Tiger disk that came with your iMac.
If all this is more than you want to contemplate merely so you can use Photo Booth, you might rather consider installing and using one of these Photo Booth alternatives: Funny Photographer or Freak Show.

Apps acting weird and doing actions against my will.

Hello I'm here to write about the latest issue I got on my iPhone 5c, while I was writing a message my app started acting weird. Successively I moved to another app and it did the same thing so I suppose it's a general problem.
Ex: while I write my iPhone clicks and opens other options on the page by itself.
While I scroll down on tumblr app it clicks other options by itself like unfollow, changes pages, as if I clicked those options but I didn't.
Like on whatsapp for instance, while I write it opens the user id, the user info, shuts the keyboard down as if I did it but I didn't at all.
Also now while I'm here writing this sometimes it acts as if I clicked on he top bar and opens the http:// of this page, but I didn't.
While I'm on drafts/notes app it does the same, I wrote a long message last night hoping it would help being that out of an app which needs connection but it happen again; while I was about to finish it clicked the delete button by itself and everything disappeared.
Also now again, I luckily copied this email line by line in order to prevent it from delete everything I wrote again.
I just need to know if there's something I can do or if I should just take it back to an apple store since it's still pretty new..

Appletv remote app and airplay not working with iphone 4S

I have the latest appleTV. I have the remote app loaded onto my ipad3 and iphone 4S. The app is not working with iphone 4S, nor do I get the airplay icon, hence I can't mirrior my phone on appleTV. It used to work. I have deleted and reloaded the app, and still nothing. It worked fined until a month ago or so. I have enabled home sharing.
The app and airlplay are working just fine with the ipad3. I have the ipad and appleTV hooked up to my router using 5Ghz, and the iphone only connects to the 2Ghz network on the same router. I don't think this is the issue, because it worked before.
Also, when I click on the remote app on the iphone, to add an itunes library, a code pops up on the phone, which I enter into itunes on my Win7 PC. Nothing seems happed on the computer when I enter the code. Could this have anything to do with recent appleTV or itunes updates? Any possible solutions?

It seems like I am having the same problem.
I have the latest AppleTV 1080, imac 27", ipad, ipad2, 2 iphone 4, all with the latest iOS. After I have the AppleTV connected, a few problems showed up:
(1) ipad plus iphones cannot airplay photo to AppleTV. After the play button and the grey screen displayed "the playing msg on AppleTV", nothing happened. it is the same for ipad/iphone.
(2) iMac not Airplay to AppleTV
(3) Airplay Mirroring not working
The following are done:
- Home sharing enabled
- To test the devices are connected. I set a passowrd for Airplay and the ipad/iphone both requested for it so they are network and devices are ok

N79 not saving photos?

Hi, recently updated my n79 and now it will not save any pictures that I take (at least not that I can find). Has anyone any idea what is happening? The camera etc work as normal, but when you go to view the pictures you have taken they are nowhere to be found
Solved!
Go to Solution.

So are they there or not? You ended your sentence with a "?"
If you don't see them then your camera is not saving them. If you see them then your camera is saving them but for some reason they are showing in your photo browser.

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?????

HT1414 i have just upgraded to iOS7 and when pdating my apps some have not saved data and others have. Why would this be and how do I get the data back?

I have just upgraded to iOS7 and when I open my apps some have data saved and some (Eden, Survivalcraft) do not. My son is distraught that all his hard work has gone so does anyone know why this would be and how do I fix it please?

Nevermind. Problem solved. They were there. I just couldn't see them.

Lumia 720: Power and camera button act weird

Hi,
My Nokia Lumia 720 is acting weird.
The camera button doesn't work and so does the power button.
However if I press the volume down and the power button simultaneously the button does work.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
I've already brought the phone back to the default settings.
I'm running the latest developer preview if that matters.
