    can not get camera icon in iMessages to work on iPad

    Make sure that MMS is turned on in settings and your account with the carrier is provisioned for MMS. If it is, then try a reset on the iPhone. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. That will restart the phone. See if it is there after that.

    So via imessage?
    Do you have MMS enabled and are you provisioned by your phone carrier to use MMS?
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages - Apple Support
    If you're provisioned, then close out of the message app, double tap the home button and completely close out of the app.
    Then do a reset, no data loss, hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.  then check if you can send photos via message.

  • Camera icon missing after updating to ios 5

    After updating to ios 5, the quick access camera icon is missing on the lock screen, I cannot access the camera unless I unlock phone. Has anyone else had this issue? I thought this was supposed to be one of the upgrade features?

    Yes. Mine too. Infact, along with Quick Access Camera Icon, my phone is also missing FaceTime and Imessage and Icloud (if there is any) icons. The settings, however, for facetime and imessage looks "Activated" because it doesn't say "waiting for activation" anymore when I eneter my password. it reads "Your phone number and email address will be shared……"

  • Camera already on from lockscreen on iPhone 5c. How do I turn it off? The camera icon is running in the lower right corner and when I swipe up from the bottom of the lockscreen it brings up the camera running.

    My camera is already running from the lockscreen, the camera icon is displayed in the lower right corner and when I swipe up the control center it brings up the camera first. If I swipe up again I get the control center.  How do I stop the camera from staying on and coming up first?

    I thought the feature was for it to be available for me to use, not to swipe up and have the camera already going. The control panel is not coming up first, it is the camera. In order to get to the control panel I have to swipe up again and the camera is still going. Annoyingly, I have had to disable the camera from the control panel so it isn't coming up first, and now it is unavailable to use quickly.

    You don't, unless you disable the Camera app entirely.
    It's such a nuisance...
    Really, how so?
    I don't want people going into my photos or my iphone!!
    If you add a passcode to your iPhone as you should, then there's no way they can see anything in your iPhone.  Of course, if the passcode is set but not enough time has elapsed that's different -- but that has nothing to do with this icon.

  • HT3582 the camera icon is no longer on my iphone screen

    My son has been playing with my phone again and i now do not have the camera icon. How do i get my camera back?

    To prove it is there. Go the first iPhone screen, slide screen all the way to right. This is the Search Screen, in top bar type cam, or if you want type camera. There it is. You can now look for it on the iPhone. If you want the iPhone to find it by organizing all your Apps in order. Then, Settings App>General>Reset, near bottom of list, Reset Home Screen Layout.

  • I updated my iPod tough 4G to iOS 5 and can no longer access my camera. When I tap the camera icon it goes to a black screen. HELP?

    Camera no longer working in iOS 5 on my iPod touch 4G. I have a black screen when I tap the camera icon. I still have all my photos, but no camara. Any suggestions before I head to the Apple Genius Bar??

    Im having the same problem. I just got the itouch 4g this past sunday and everything was working great. Yesterday and today the camera went black out of nowhere and its black right now. After i turned it on and off it went back on but its doing it again. So i assume its just an iOS 5 bug thats doing this. But is there any talk about fixing this?

    Double tap Home button, delete Camera app in multitask-bar.
    Do a

    By the way, picture go through as MMS not SMS, do you have a SMS/MMS plan with your carrier?

  • I still don't totally understand the difference on my iPhone between PhotoStream (with iCloud icon), Photos (the icon) and Albums and Camera Roll (under Photos icon) and and Camera Roll (under Camera icon).  I want to delete photos from my iPhone 4.

    I  don’t  understand the difference on my iPhone between PhotoStream (with iCloud icon), Photos (the icon) and Albums and Camera Roll (under Photos icon) and and Camera Roll (under Camera icon).  They seem to be more or less the same thing, but deleting photos in one place does not delete them elsewhere.
    When I tried to import from my camera to my iMac computer the computer would not recognized 900 of the 920 photos on the camera so I had to (successfully) use the Image Capture application to import them.
    I want to delete photos from my iPhone 4 in order to free up storage (I only have 8GB.)  But in synching I do not want to delete any images from my iPhoto on my computer.
    Is there a way that I can Delete All under Edit in either Photos or Camera on my iPhone and check about 20 ijmages to remain on the iPhone?  I could find no command to Select All and then uncheck the 20 photos I want to keep.
    I have the 8GB iPhone and the iMac with OS 10.9.2 and iPhoto '09 Version 8.1.2.
    Help!

    I have Version 6.1.3 because the clogged storage will not allow me to upload Version 7.1.  Catch 22.  This is basically a storage issue, I believe.  I cannot delete enough stuff on my iPhone to allow me to either back up or upload the new OS 7.  I am unwilling to pay for more storage in iCloud, so I want to delete stuff I don't need.  But I haven't yet figured out how to successfully do that.  I synch my phone and computer.  I want to delete mail on the Mail app and photos and still keep my photos on my computer on iPhoto, but not on my phone.  I seem unable to do that.  Any advice?

  • How do I get my camera icon back on an iPhone 4S?

    My camera icon is missing from my iPhone.  It must have been accidentally deleted.  How do I get it back?

    Camera app can't be delete its a built in IOS.  I would try searching your apps folder and see if its in there. 
    If you still can't find it go to settings - general - reset - reset home screen layout - WARning doing this will remove all your apps from the folder and you will have to redo it, but at least you get your camera app back.

  • My camera Icon has disappeared. How do I get it back? - it had not been moved or hidden in a folder.

    Hi,
    I went to take a picture and my camera icon had just disapeared / was not there anymore.
    I thought that maybe it had been moved so I checked all the folders and I even did a home page reset but still can't find it.
    The photo files are still there thank goodness and I need to work out how to back them up / where they are stored when you sync your phone to itunes. That's another question though!
    If someone could please tell me how to get my camera back I would really appreciate it.
    Thanks
    Clotilde

    Hi,
    This usually happens accdently when we surf through the phone's menue trying to figure out more features, and one lands up changing some settings.
    Check Settings > General > Restrictions and make sure restrictions are not enabled for any icon missing from your home screens ie: camera, safari etc.

  • Why do i get a camera icon and volume bar on my lock screen now that i have updated to ios 5

    Why do i get a camera icon (bottom right)and volume/buffer bar (top centre) of lock screen....only happening since ios5 update..

    It's a feature of iOS5.  If you double tab the home button, you can use the camera or play music without having to enter your lock code.  If you single tap the home button, you should just see the lock screen.  It's nice if you want to take a picture quickly.
