  • Two games apps just stopped working

    I'm new to the ipod and was wondering if someone knows why two of my games apps have justed stopped working. The icons display a "X" symbol on the top LHS when you hover over the icon. Tapping the icon tries to launch the app but they always fail. Its frustrating as they did work. Reloading, re-syncing and updating these apps does nothing.
    Thanks
    Mike

    Try resetting the device. Hold down on the sleep and home keys, past the red slider, until you see the silver apple and let it reboot.
    If that doesn't work, try downloading a free app. Any free app. This often clears the glitch. It's like the iPad 'forgets' who owns the iPad and when you have to sign into iTunes to download a free app, that act reminds it and clears up the non function of apps.

  • Camera Button just stopped working

    Very strange ... has been flawless since September.  Starting today, when I push the Camera Button, it no longer vibrates and starts my camera APP.  After I manually select the Camera App from my App drawer, the button works fine to take the picture...  I've rebooted.  I've pulled the battery.
    Any ideas??

    I press it a looong time - much more than "usual".  Anyway, this is very bazaar ....  I went thru the pain of uninstalling any and all APPS that I recently installed over the last week - including LPP which was a total pain.  1 by 1 uninstalling, rebooting, testing camera ...  It suddenly worked after an uninstall of 1 particular APP ... so I rebooted again, just to verify.  It failed to respond again to pressing the button .. Rebooted again, didn't install anything, tested - it worked this time ..  So honestly, I can't say any particular APP is causing this ... I reinstalled the APPS that I had uninstalled - and it is currently working  ..  So now am nearly convinced this intermittent bug was introduced with the latest OS update ...  ugh ...  It worked perfectly -- 100% of the time prior to this update.
    Anyone else experiencing this ?
    I've have the phone for over a month (yep, folks...past my 30 days.  I'm keeping the Droid X!)  It came with 2.2 (and I went through the latest update with no probs - knock wood), and I've always had to hold the camera button down for a few seconds.  Thought it was inherent to the phone. 

  • Swipe on remote app just stopped working

    all of the sudden I can't swipe (go left, right, up and down) on remote app for my apple tv. I can tap, press menu, even type on youtube search but not swipe. I can see app on my Iphone is reacting to the touch when i try to swipe as it slightly changes the light, but no reaction on apple tv. All the softwear is up to date, i tried turning off and on everything, re-instaling the app but no avail... help!

    I am having the exact same problem. Quit Remote app, restarted iPhone. Restarted the AppleTV. No change. The aluminum Apple Remote works just fine. The Remote app let's me click to select and hit Menu to go back, but will not swipe to go in any direction. Any help would be appreciated. Using an iPhone 4S and an AppleTV2.

  • My rear camera will not focus on my iPhone 6plus, I updated to 8.2 today to see if it fixed it but it didn't, what is the reason for my camera to just stop working?

    My camera doesn't focus anymore, I didn't drop it or get it wet either. The front camera still works like it should. I even updated my phone to 8.2 today and still it didn't fix the problem.

    Hello Jeremy76504,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you are having an issue with the camera on your iPhone not focusing as you would expect. In this situation, I would recommend reading over and working through the troubleshooting steps in the attached article. 
    Get help with the camera on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Your photos are blurred or out of focus
    If your photos are blurred, out of focus, or have dark spots, try these steps:
    Make sure that the camera lens is clean. If you need to clean the lens, use a microfiber cloth. If you see dirt or debris inside the lens, take your device to an Apple Retail Store or Authorized Service Provider for more help.
    Make sure that there’s nothing blocking the camera lens. If you’re using a case, try removing it.
    With iPhone 6 Plus, a metallic case or magnetic lens could interfere with optical image stabilization. If you have a metallic case or magnetic lens attachment, try taking a picture without it. Then compare the quality.
    Adjust the focus by tapping on the person or object in the preview screen. You’ll see the screen pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as the camera adjusts. In photo mode, try to stay steady when adjusting the focus. If you move too far in any direction, the camera will automatically refocus to the center. In video mode, you can adjust the focus before you begin recording.
    If the color seems too bright, or you see double-exposures of moving objects, make sure that HDR is set to Auto or Off. Tap HDR at the top of the screen to choose a different setting.
    Have a great day,
    Joe

  • Ipad4 front camera just stopped working

    My Ipad 4 camera has just stopped working; the rear camera works fine but when you toggle across the whole thing locks?
    three weeks out of warranty; feels like an Apple 'frig' to me!

    Hi Brendan
    Unfortunately that doesn't work; and had already done all the guidance and also tried full resets from the settings as well.
    The rear camera works fine but when you toggle to the front facing camera it blurs the previous rear facing image and then effectively locks the screen and doesn't allow you to toggle back to the rear camera or move between photo/video/square. Even when you close the application it then reboots into a  front screen black image which you can only get out of by rebooting the iPad.
    As I bought this from Apple as a refurbished model and it's 12 months and 3 weeks old which means from an Aplle perspective its out of warranty and any kind of support assistance. It seems the only way I can get support is to spend £25 to get someone from Appleto talk to me.
    The guidance from numerous facebook contributors suggest is it would  be wiser to spend the £25 pursuing Apple for a resolution on the HM Courts Website 'Money Claim Online' as under the UK Sale & Supply of Goods act its reasonable to expect it to continue to work after less than 13 months usage.

  • TS1702 My camera app has stopped workin

    My camera app has stopped working when I press the app nothing happened it just seems to close down the iPad. Can you advise how to fix this

    Have you tried closing the Camera app completely and seeing if it works when you re-open it ? From the home screen (i.e. not with Camera 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Camera app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    Try closing the Camera/Skype app:
    1. Double-click the Home button to reveal the Task Bar
    2. Hold down the Camera/Skype app for a second or two until you see the minus sign
    3. Tap the minus sign to close app
    4. Tap area above Task Bar to return to Home screen
    If the above doesn't solve the problem, do a reset:
    Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the red slider

  • " My Verizon" app on my iPhone 5 running IOS7 just stopped working

    The " My Verizon" app on my iPhone 5 running IOS7 just stopped working (connecting). Apps says it can't establish a connection. I've tried WiFi and LTE connection and it won't work on either. I've rebooted iPhone and even re-installed My Verizon App. What gives???????

        Hi EPNApple,
    Oh No! That indeed sounds alarming! We want all of your applications to be fully functional. Are other applications able to connect properly? Can you access web pages? Have you attempted to remove and reinsert SIM on the right side of the device? Please keep us posted, thanks!

  • CS6 just stopped working last night.

    PS CS6 Extended  just stopped working over night and so has my version of CS5.1. I have a trial of CS6 Master Suite going and they are all dead too, and no the trial isn't over.I don't even get a flash screen.  Actually I got bridge to open and it asked me to install ACR6.7??? I have  LR 3&4, Element/Premiere 10 and they are fine. I have wiped my MAC twice with the CS cleaner and have spent the entire day on chat help and the phone. Nothing is working, any ideas?
    Oh and NONE of them will recognise my camera, it's just plain bizarre

  • Can't open a dng or raw file in cs5, just stops working. So many problems in cs5!

    I totally feel for you. Just upgraded from cs4 to cs5 and it was the  biggest mistake i ever made. It will probably end my livelihood as a  photographer since EVERY time i open a raw file it crashes photoshop,  makes it freeze up after i have adjuted the file in camera raw then I  hit open; i get a few bars then it just stops working.
    Even got  tech help, which helped when i was on the phone with them. The next day  the problem came back even when I danced the same jig that I did when I  had the guy on the phone - he had me move a raw file on to the desktop  rather than take open from my hard drive, then I was able to open it, so  we came to the conclusion that my drive was corrupt. I had the same  information backed up on a brand new hard drive so we compared files  from the each drive against the other. The files from the new drive  opened successfully. Yesterday. Now Photoshop cs5 doesn't open any raw  or dng files at all from anywhere so it can only be a problem with  photoshop. We thought we had the problem solved but we did not. This  never happened on CS4 unless i was trying to open 30 or more raw files,  and even then it gave me a warning that it had no more ram, it didn't  just lock up and do nothing. I'm at my wit's end. Even though there are a  lot of great new things in cs5, they aren't very useful if you can't  use the product to do the simplest thing.

    1) Install the Photoshop 12.0.1 update
    2) Install the latest ACR update.
    If problems continue after that, then there probably is something wrong with your system.
