Camera screen fuzzy and not taking pictures

My  camera will not take pictures and will just show a fuzzy screen. Sometimes it flips to take a front photo and then locks up. Any ideas?

First, try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data by resetting.
If this does not help, set it up as new device, explained here:
How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
If still no luck, get it checked by visiting an Authorized Apple Service Provider or contact Apple Support to get it serviced:

    I had a similar problem, and i found that the photo was of very low resoluton. As a test I resized the image to a lrager resolution using photoshop CS4 and re saved it as JPG. I imported the new saved image and it seem to have fixed the problem.

  • My ipad froze with my camera screen on and my background on full screen?  If I press any button it takes a picture

    my ipad froze with my camera screen on and my background on full screen.  Every button I push on
    it takes a pic.  won't shut off either, it takes a pic instead

    First try a Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least Ten seconds... (But can take Longer)... until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons
    If no joy... Try a Restore...
    1: Connect the device to Your computer and open iTunes.
    2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.

    Yes if your already on OS X Snow Leopard 10.6
    See #8 Reinstall Just OS X + Software Update
    ..Step by Step to fix your Mac
    However you should backup files REGARDLESS as anything can happen at anytime.

    https://discussions.apple.com/community/notebooks/macbook_pro?view=documents
    Yes if your upgrading 10.4/10.5 to Snow Leopard 10.6
    However if your hard drive is more than 50% full, then it might be slow. Move just your users files temporarily to a external storage drive (not TimeMachine) and reboot, check in Activity Monitor than you have reclaimed drive space, then upgrade to 10.6, then reboot and Software Update to 10.6.8, then return your users files into their respective Music, Pictures, Documents etc., folders.

    I do NOT advise you upgrade to 10.7 or later on 10.4/10.5 issued hardware due to risks and performance issues, your PPC based programs will not work and require replacement.

  • HELP!: Canon Rebel XS Changing Settings Randomly and Not Taking Photos!!

    PLEASE HELP! This is a very desperate attempt at reaching out for help before I THROW MY CAMERA AT THE WALL! Frustration level 1000 reached.  The problem: I power up my Canon Rebel XS (purchased in 2009 and treated like my baby), point it at the subject matter, press the shutter button to take my beautiful photo, and all hell breaks loose! The camera decides to change all the settings, usually the shutter speed. When it's in full auto mode, the shutter speed changes between 3 or 4 different options (depending on the settings of the photo) and then it never releases, resulting in no photo. I've tried holding down the button and pressing quickly, neither work.  So I've tried this in all settings: In Shutter Priority mode, the aperture changes randomly. In Aperture priority mode, (you guessed it!) shutter speed changes randomly. What changes in manual exposure mode? Exposure level... all on its own. OH -- I FORGOT TO MENTION, as they change, they BLINK! Whatever setting is randomly switching itself, it blinks. As if to taunt me and grab my attention -- "Hey, you! This is why I'm not taking the picture! HAHA!"  So honestly, if anyone has any insight, I would be EXTREMELY grateful. But I'm pretty sure it's possessed by an evil spirit intent on seeing me rip all of my hair out. >.<

    What if we control the shooting conditions?  If you go outside on a sunny day, there would certainly be enough light for the camera to focus and take a shot.  Have you tried this? I ask this because if I attempt to take a photo in a situation where there is simply not enough light, the camera will do precisely what you are describing...   it has some limits to ISO, shutter speed, and aperture that it cannot exceed (it could in manual control, but will not in the auto or semi-auto modes.)   I've noticed that my camera doesn't want to exceed certain shutter speed limits, ISO limits, and of course the lens constrains the aperture values available.  Also, if the lens auto-focus is enabled and the camera is in "One Shot" focus mode (the default) it will not take an image until it can lock focus on at least one AF point. Give the camera enough light... and all of these problems go away. Shoot in Manual mode and all of these problems (except focus) also go away. If the camera is not moving (e.g. on a solid tripod) and the subject is not moving (e.g. a still scene) then you can take an exposure as long as necessary to get a shot -- but you may have to manually focus the lens if the lighting is poor and the subject lacks adequate contrast. 

  • Iphone (original model) not taking pictures

    My Iphone isn't taking pictures anymore. When I snap a picture, it looks like it is storing it but when I go to look at the photo gallery, all the images are blank. When I plug in the phone to sync it, it doesn't trigger my computer's software to download the images.
    Thanks.

    Yes, I am experiencing the same problem as are many iPhone camera addicts. There are quite a few threads on this issue here on the Apple Support board and although I have not heard anything I am sure Apple is aware of this issue.
    Several people including my self have had their iPhone replaced at the Apple store because of this issue only to find it was a software issue and not hardware. Sit tight, I believe the next update will fix this and several other nagging problems that has cropped up recently.

  • N97 camera screen goes and stays black after 10 mi...

    Since a month im the owner of an N97. Cost a lot of money. From the start the camera-screen goes black within ten minutes after booting. And it stays black, so the camera functionality is completely gone. The primary and the secondary neither work. I did hard resets, firmware upgrades, soft resets and i brought it to a Nokia service center twice. The second time they returned it after 2 1/2 weeks (today) but the problem is still there. Now I just wished i bought an iPhone instead, and its driving me mad...What to do? Like I said, I already went to the Nokia service centre twice... and did all the firmware upgrades.

    Almost the same here, with an N97, I found that I have to close the "so called" lens protector after the "processing image" disappear, and or close it when not processing anything, also I have to close it before it goes to stand by and that way the camera will work fine.
    Also don't open and close and open the "lens protector".
    In my case with a turn off and then on the camera comes to live again, is a pain, but not as bad as hard reseting all the time.

  • HT4060 my ipad has been charging for days and not taking the charge what else can be wrong.?

    i have an apple i pad 16 gb...i have it charging for days and its not taking the charge what else can i try...

    Could be the charger, cable or the iPad.
    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    And this - Unplug the charger from the iPad and then replug. May resume charging.
    Or - Recalibrate the battery. See link below.
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
    http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

  • Screen - Fuzzy And Blurred

    hi
         My phone has started behaving funny lately. While using the phone , my phone hangs and the screen goes all fuzzy and blurred.. Then the phone switches off and it cannot be restarted again. I recently upgraded it to the latest iOS 5.1.1 but this did not solve the problem. Is this a hardware problem? My phone is out of warranty!!!
