Camera app and in-app camera options won't work

I have an iPhone 4S that I got about a year ago. It's been working great until a few months ago. All in-app camera options and even my built-in camera app won't work. They crash before they open and before I can snap a pic. It's the same when I flick up the camera from the lock screen. It stays black and I'm not able to take a photo. How do I fix this?

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • I have lost my camera icon and my app store icon.  I have tried to reset and even tried to restore factory settings...no luck.  Restrictions have been turned on, but I do not have the passcode.  Any suggestions??

    I have gone through the router reset for home network, Router reset at work. Restarted my personal hotspot on my iPhone that is running the same IOS.
    I have performed the Network settings reset on the iPad.
    I have performed a hard reboot on the iPad, (Home button and power button until logo appears)
    Also I had to update the Apple driver on my laptop for iTunes to see my iPad after I had updated iTunes, I'm not sure if I lost wifi after I updated the iPad IOS or updating iTunes.

  • I updated my iPhone to iOS 7.0.5 and I lost my messages and camera app and other apps i downloaded from app store. I was having the problem of losing apps since before I updated to the latest IOS. What should i do?

    I updated my iPhone to iOS 7.0.5 and I lost my messages and camera app and other apps i downloaded from app store. I was having the problem of losing apps since before I updated to the latest IOS. I have tried enable and disable restriction, connecting my phone to my laptop and sync from my computer and none of them is working. What should i do?

    Often when this type of thing occurs with missing default apps it is due to a situation where you are unable to 'see' the apps. If you will go to your front display of your device go to settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen layout.
    This reset allows for your apps that have for whatever reason been hidden in such an area as you arn't able to find them now to be returned to the area as which they were when you first had the device.
    As far as the missing Apps that were purchased through the Apps Store if you will go to settings>itunes and Apps store and click where it reads about automatcally downloading apps clicking on the toggle switch AND clicking on the toggle switch which allows for cellular data to be enabled this then will effectively automatically download all apps to your device that was purchased from the App Store.
    Good luck friend.

  • I'm using the sync option for when I'm not near my desktop and no matter what it won't work its telling me my account name or password is not correct and it is!

    I'm using the sync option for when I'm not near my desktop and no matter what it won't work its telling me my account name or password is not correct and it is!

    This is from my personal experience:
    It almost happens every time I tried to connect with Sync from my Android phone, the window asking me to enter my account name and password always shows up. And if I enter the information, it'll say I have the wrong password, etc. My workaround is to click the "cancel" button. But it does not cancel immediately. The window will stay on for a while (usually a few minutes), then it'll disappear and start connecting to Sync. And it'll connect and sync successfully.
    You can try this workaround but you have to be patient to wait for the window to disappear.
    I don't know what is the cause of this, but it has happened ever since FF4 for Mobile came out. I have searched around and couldn't find any solutions.

    Changing your Apple ID to your current, working email address will not create another Apple ID, it will only change it to your working email address.

  • I updated to ios7 on my iphone 4 and now cant install apps and one app says waiting for 2 days now. Also it started ading apps from my wife's phone onto my phone even though we have separate apple ids.

    I updated to ios7 on my iphone 4 and now cant install apps and one app says waiting for 2 days now. Also it started ading apps from my wife's phone onto my phone even though we have separate apple ids.

    We do not share an apple ID and her phone is now logged in with her account and I have since backed it up on itunes under her account as well. I have turned off automatic downloads on her phone but they still keep downloading. I delete one app and then another one just appears on the phone.

  • I saturated all the available iPad (3rd. generation) screen space (home screens or desktop space) with apps, and the apps that got bumped out of the last screen, mysteriously disappeared? Where are those missing quick lauch app icons?

    Running my 3rd generation iPad on iOS 7.0.4, I saturated all the available iPad screen space (which would be the 15 home screens or desktop worth of space) with apps, and the apps that got bumped out of the last screen space mysteriously disappeared. Where are those missing quick lauch app icons now? The apps are still installed and can be searched/accessed through the finder, but they no longer have a user friendly access. How can I solve this problem?

    Hi Hexonxonx, thanks for trying to help, but next time please read the entire discussion, in oder to better comprehend what is being asked. The reason being is that your answer added nothing to what had already been mentioned.
    Like I said, I was aware it was possible to access the apps through the finder, but the question revolved around how to recover the quick launch app icons for certain vanished apps.
    Wow, kind of a snotty response to someone who was taking their own time to offer help.  Whether you thought it was helpful or not, didn't deserve such an unkind retort.  Maybe when you realize we all just users here trying to help others like you, who have issues and we don't get anything in return for the countless hours some people here spend offering that assistance, you'll maybe be a little less quick to be critical.
    Just sayin.......
    Oh and Meg offered the right answer.  Put your Apps in Folders, which will create extra space for the apps which have disappeared.

    i found a solution for this issue when google maps shows you an empty map error message cannot reach server. Click on  the icon next to search and you are supposed to be presented with your profile, if not u will have an empty space. click on that space, then the "gear " Icon and logout.
    restart your iphone then strat google maps again and log back in.
    apparently this is happening when you change your google acount password or enble or disable 2 step verification.

  • When I try to record something it reverts to camera 1 and says "no camera found"

    I have just set up my webcam (Logitech QuickCam 9000) and I can see myself in the preview window of VC 3. In the setup menue, it indicates camera 1 as Camtasia Studio and camera 2 as the webcam. I set the input device to camera 2, but when I try to record something it reverts to camera 1 and says "no camera found". What am I doing wrong?

    First off, avoid any USB webcams when using Visual Communicator.  See why here:

    This is probably not the answer to all your questions, but I am sure it answers some.
    Unlike Word and InDesign, FrameMaker's anchored frames, which hold graphics, "hang" from their insertion points, typically at the end of the paragraph. An anchored frame that follows a paragraph is set to be below the line, the line being the last line in the paragraph. If you turn on View > Text Symbols, you will see a marker that indicates the point from which the anchored frame is hanging.
    If the anchored frame is taller than the available space, it is moved to the next page ALONG with that last line. If the paragraph style/tag has a widow/orphan lines number that is more than 1, then that number of lines are also moved to the next page, because the paragraph tag says to keep that many together, EVEN if there is space at the bottom of the previous page.
    So, you can set the widow/orphan lines number smaller OR as you have done put a blank line before the anchored frame, which now holds the marker for the anchored frame, and set its font size to 2 pt (the lowest FrameMaker allows) and its line height to zero. This is the standard workaround UNLESS you use the line above the anchored frame as the title/caption of a figure, which is also a typical way of dealing with FrameMaker's ways.
    To my knowledge, one cannot change the default of the checked cropped box. Maybe others know of some way to change this.
    There is no page break in FrameMaker, hence there is no symbol for it. In the paragraph designer for the paragraph, you set to Start of the paragraph to Top of page. Top of page is FrameMaker's equivalent to a page break. To "remove" a page break, set the Start of the paragraph to Anywhere.
    Since you are new to FrameMaker, I suggest reading throught the User Manual that comes with FrameMaker. You will likely find the answers to most of your questions there.
    Hope this helps,
    Van

    Click 'Check for solutions' to send data about this device to Microsoft and to see if there is a solution available.
    Any ideas why iTunes renders my DVD drive unusable?  I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes and when reinstalling I had my device manager open and saw during the installation how my DVD player went from accessible to not being able to start.
    Why is this happening?
