Camera Failed - Samsung Note II

I don't know why but the camera on my phone has just stopped working? What should I do? I got the phone in March, it seems too soon to be having these kinds of problems. I googled the problem and have already tried the following:
1. Reboot
2. Force close and clear data in camera
3. format SD card
4. Factory reset
Nothing has worked. What now?

I'm sorry to hear your phone is having camera issues metro_bk. Has the phone been damaged? What specific issue is the phones camera having? Are you able to snap a picture, or access the camera or do you have issues with the camera saving pics? Are you using a 3rd party picture application? I look forward to hearing from you.

Samsung Note 4 Camera Failed

Just received my Note 4 and set it up. Camera does not work. It says Camera Failed. I turned device off and back on, forced stop on camera and cleared, no software updates are available. Really don't want to do factory reset with hours invested in setting up. Any suggestions?

Matnean,
The camera function is definitely important so I totally understand your concern. Let's get to the bottom of this and get your camera working right.
When are you getting the camera failed error? Have you ever been able to use the camera since you purchased the phone? Any damage physical or liquid damage on the phone?
Try running the phone in safe mode http://www.verizonwireless.com/support/knowledge-base-121765/ and retest the camera. If you are able to use the camera in safe mode without getting the error, the issue is due to a 3rd party app. You will then need to start uninstalling the 3rd party apps one at a time to determine which one is causing the issue. Keep me posted if the issue persist.

Hi, I was able to reformat my iPod and that worked. I read it on one of the threads and I am copy pasting the method below:
I opened the "My Computer" window and right-clicked on my ipod, and then selected "Format". I select "Yes" to format since I don't have anything on the nano to delete anymore.
I then Eject my nano from the computer and did a restart while the nano is disconnected from the computer.
Once Windows finish loading I reconnect the USB to the nano(back of computer) which automatically pulls up iTune. It asked me to name the new ipod detected and created a playlist for that specific ipod name.

Samsung Note 3 Camera and Flash Issues

I have a Samsung Note 3 that is only a few months old and the Camera continues to not function correctly.
Android 4.4.2
* Flash will randomly turn off and I will need to restart my device to get it working again.
* Pictures taken with camera are slow and very often out of focus.
The camera flash issue is something most people might not notice until they absolutely need the flash.
The camera taking a long time to focus/take pictures I'm sure a lot of people have seen on a more regular basis.

Hello Tazman4u, a working phone is super important! My apologies for the issues plagueing your device. Please test the phone in safe mode: http://vz.to/1aFxLK8 If issue persists, you will want to backup contacts, pics, and files to perform a hard reset: http://vz.to/1kpmPp0

Web camera fails to initialize, not in device manager

Hi,
I have a Satellite L650D with Windows 7 'Home Prem' and have recent issues with my webcam. All was running smoothly for a year or more until one day this error message appeared " Web camera initialization failed. Please restart application or computer ".
I also had trouble on Sykpe with the camera failing mid-conversation then not loading at all. I have un-installed and re-installed Skype in the hope that it was the problem...unfortunately not. Then after searching through the forum and Toshiba's website, I checked my application and Device Manager and was not even able to locate the device, it is not listed.
I am more than happy to try anything to fix this problem ( although I am not very computer literate! ) and would really appreciate any advice anyone can offer!
Many thanks =)

Samsung note 3 is not giving audible alerts for all my text messages since the 4.4.4 update.

Samsung note 3 is not giving audible alerts for all my text messages since the 4.4.4 update. I get an audible tone about 3/4 of the time. Thinking a conversation is over I come back 45 minutes later to find another text I didn't know came in. I've restarted my phone and checked my message settings. Any ideas? Factory reset is not an option!

I'd try going back into the Text Message settings. In Sound setting, work the setting from None to an alert. Then in Vibrate put a check in the box then uncheck. Just to see if that will free it up, could be a possible corruption with the new software update?

Will there be an update for the samsung note 10.1?

I know that an update came out, but where is the update for my samsung note 10.1?

With it being on Verizon and Samsung, I believe it will be a long wait for an update.

Malware or virus on Samsung Note II?

Anybody had a phone taken over by malware or a virus? Are Samsung Note IIs a target of viruses or malware? My phone came up with a screen message "don't turn off target" and was unresponsive. It had been plugged in for hours and had not charged at all. When I found it it was inresponsive to any commands. I unplugged the phone and removed the battery. It then was responsive but said battery was critically low. I turned it off and plugged it in multiple times and each time it turned itself on and quit charging and said battery was critically low. Anybody seen anything like this?

Were you running antivirus software on your phone before this happen? What phone are you using? Have you installed any new apps or had any updates? Need more detailed information.

Camera Raw Edits Not used in Batch

Hey Everyone,
I hope that someone can help me. I made alot of edits to about 100 images in Camera Raw ( ie (de)saturation, exposure adjustments, color adjustments,etc).
I wanted to finish up the images ( sharpening, saving) with an action that i created in Photoshop CS6.
However, when i run the action in photoshop, none of the adjustments that I made in camera raw are visible. In other words, the saved images that were output of photoshop batch were essentially the images right out of the camera. What am I doing wrong?
I appreciate your help in advance.
-Andre

The Action is very simple and does not make much sense to me. The open step is not expanded so I can only guess that its and interactive open step inserted into the action using insert menu item and you selected file>open. Other Since your original question is about RAW files I assume your opening a RAW file that has ACR settings previously set. So ACR should open the RAW file you select with its previously set ACR settings. If this is and interactive ACR step you can use Open as Object or Open Image. Since later on in the action I see select layer "Background" you must be using open image for open object would create a smart object layer not a background layer. You action then dupe the background layer and sharpens the duped layer select the background flattens and save as jpeg. The result would be the same without the dupe and flatten. These are needless steps.
I also don't fully understand your original title "Camera Raw Edits Not used in Batch". Batch actions would normally not have and open step. Photoshop Automate Batch or a Photoshop script like the Image Processor would normally process open document or open files select in the bridge or pointed to in the batch process dialog. If the action has an open step the Batch Dialog has an option that can be used to override open steps. You did not show your bath dialog setting. I have never user that option and don't know exactly that option works. Particularly in this case where you failed to expand the open step. If it is and Open As Camera RAW all image files in the source location will be open through ACR however JPEG and Tiff files may not have ACR settings and other image file formats other the raw may cause errors. I do not know how the open step was recorded or how a open as camera raw steps are overridden. I'm sure Open recent and open file would open raw file through ACR and other image files formats would be open Photoshop where JPEG and Tiff file may be set to open through ACR. Do all image file in you source image location have ACR setting and the file type set to be open via ACR?

720 camera fails to launch post black update

Hi
Lumia 720.
OS version 8.0.10517.15
Firmware 3056.40000.1349.2004
Since the black update the camera fails to launch either from the camera button or any app that uses the camera. All that happens is the camera attempts to open then depending on what was trying to open it it either displays message saying 'the camera failed to launch' or it justs goes back to the last screen I had open.
Tried hard and soft resets and also camera rest, no joy.
Any ideas?

Hi, Uncle_Mickey. Glad to see you in the Nokia Support Discussions! Since you've covered the basic troubleshooting steps, I suggest downloading the Nokia Software Recovery Tool to reset and recover your phone's software:

Samsung Note Not Seen using USB

PROBLEM: Samsung Note running Jellybean .. Doesn't show in Device Manager when USB connected. Spent many hours with both Samsung & HP tech support. Plug & play drivers are ok on every other laptop I tried ( a total of 8 ) all running Windows 8.1 EXCEPT THE HP LAPTOPS!! (Exception .. One Toshiba I tried failed too.) It has to be a conflict with something installed by HP. I know I can work around by loading an SD card with files and inserting it but I shouldn't have to do this. I have tried Samsung Kies but this failed and quite frankly, I don't want to do anything more than plug the usb in, see it in devices and transfer files to it. Help.. There must be someone else using an older Samsung tablet with an HP laptop running 8.1.

Hi,
Have you tried to use USB 2.0 port ?
Regards.

I have been trying to put music I bought on I tunes on my Samsung Note 2 phone but it won't play.I try to convert them to mp3 format so I can play them on my phone but it won't let me convert them because it says they are protected. Can anybody help me?

I have been trying to put music I bought on Itunes on my Samsung Note 2 but my media player won't play m4p files so I tried to convert the files to mp3 but I couldn't, because a message says they are protected files. I then tried downloading different media player apps to see if they would play them but had no success.Can anybody help with a solution to this problem?

First quit iTunes and look in your iTunes folder.
On Windows, the iTunes folder is in your My Music folder.
On Mac, the iTunes folder is in your Music folder.
Follow this path: iTunes > iTunes Media > Music >
Here there should be all your music folders. Open the folders containing the music that is not playing. Right click "get info" (mac) or right click "properties" (windows).
This window will tell you the file type. iTunes will play music in AAC, MP3, and Lossless, etc.
If the files are .wma you will need to convert them into ACC or MP3 format for it to play on an iPod. In iTunes, highlight the tracks that you want to convert, then on the menu bar, Advanced > Create AAC/MP3 version and the tracks will convert. Delete the old files.
If the file extenstion is anything like .exe .txt .rar then you don't have an audio file.

HT201302 How do I delete a photo from my camera roll and not delete it from a folder

When I delete photos from my camera roll, it also deletes them from the folder I've saved them in. How do I delete from the camera roll and not lose them from the folder?

"When I delete photos from my camera roll, it also deletes them from the folder I've saved them in. "
Correct. There is only one photo and it is in the camera roll. The folders you create are just a way to organize the pics. it does not create a duplicate pic.
Just as a song is in your library and a playlist, a pic is in the camera roll and the folder.
If you delete a song from the library, then it is gone. The same is true of pics.
