Dot in iPhone 5 Camera

Avid apple fan, so you cant call me no hater. It seems everyday i find another flaw in my phone today, I found that in all pictures and videos no matter the light condition, even after cleaning the lens multiple times i keep seeing this faded dot in my media anyone else have the issue ?

yeah i have the same exact thing but i seem to have about 10 of those dots, and they don't move even when I try to wipe them with a soft cloth or kleenex

  • IPhone camera purple dots

    Just today I went to snapchat and found that there was purple dots on my screen, thought it was something stuck to the outside of the rear camera but I cleaned it and it's still there, went onto my actual camera and there is actually 2 there not just the one
    I saw someone asked this before and the reply was take it to the apple store as it had happened to a few others who then got a replacement, but as my phone is out of warranty now, I don't think I'll get a replacement
    What should I do as I don't really like the idea of paying about £250 for a refurbished phone but also don't want to use a camera that has noticeable purple dots

  • Blue dot on Iphone 5 photos with direct sunlight in them

    I do not understand how this is not on EVERY SINGLE forum and website for the iphone 5. I recently purchased a new iphone 5s after struggling with a lot of issues with my 4.  I bought my 5s a week and a half ago and promptly began having tons of server errors, apps crashing, calls failed and on and on.  I also discovered that there was a VERY BRIGHT BLUE dot that showed up on every single phone and video taken that had any amount of direct sunlight in it (say goodbye to beautiful sunset pictures).
    I went back into apple and was told to restore, and then completely clear my phone. I did everything they asked and when everything failed and after literally hours and hours on the computer and in person with technicians, I went in for a replacement yesterday. After three hours in the apple store I walked out of the store with what I thought was a perfect new phone.  I went onto the street and took a short video. And you know what--there was a BRIGHT BLUE DOT on the video.  So I went BACK into the apple store for the 10th time.  I spoke to a salesperson and he had no idea what I was talking about.  I showed him the video and he was baffled.  I then picked up the other iphones and began testing them out. Every SINGLE one had this bright blue dot on the image or video when pointed toward sunlight.  Apparently there is something with the new glass of these cameras that cannot handle direct sunlight (which is ridiculous to me). The sales person went and spoke to the Apple Technitions that were "downstairs" and they acknowledged, this is just the way it is, the glass cannot handle direct sunlight.
    So, I thought, OK, well, I guess I will have to stop taking photos of sunsets and directly into the sun through cityscapes etc....I will do my very best to make peace with this..However, last night, I was taking photos of some lights at night and a variation of this happened again except with tons of little blue lights flaring of the christmas lights I was taking photos of.
    As a videographer and photographer, the new iphone camera was a serious draw and factor in my newest purchase. The fact that EVERY SINGLE ONE of these current phones on the sales floor seem to have the same faulty hardware with their cameras absolutely blows my mind.  What use is fancy glass on a camera if it takes shots with bright blue dots right in the middle of every screen? I would REALLY like to get some feedback from apple on this note because I am hugely dissapointed with this phone and blown away that this issue has not been addressed formally. 

    Under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, deselect Sync Photos followed by a sync. This should remove all photos transferred from your Mac to the iPhone. Follow this by reselecting Sync Photos and confirming your selections below followed by a sync.
    If no change after this, try targeting or deleting what is called the iPod Photo Cache on your computer.

  • Purple dots on iPhone 4S

    I've had my iPhone 4S for about 1 year and when I use the camera 2 purple dots appear on the screen. I think this is something in the camera lens. I domt have warranty on the iPhone so how much would it cost roughly ?

    Hello singhmaan7,
    Thank you for the question.  I found an article that addresses a purple spot that might appear when taking pictures with the iPhone camera:
    Symptoms
    A purplish or other colored flare, haze, or spot is imaged from out-of-scene bright light sources during still image or video capture.
    Resolution
    Most small cameras, including those in every generation of iPhone, may exhibit some form of flare at the edge of the frame when capturing an image with out-of-scene light sources. This can happen when a light source is positioned at an angle (usually just outside the field of view) so that it causes a reflection off the surfaces inside the camera module and onto the camera sensor. Moving the camera slightly to change the position at which the bright light is entering the lens, or shielding the lens with your hand, should minimize or eliminate the effect.

  • How can I get the many photos from my iPhone Camera Roll onto my iPad (no OS 7 on either) - thanks!

    How can I get all of the photos from my iPhone Camera Roll onto my iPad3?  Both are running OS 5x and 6x.  Thank you -

    Hey David152,
    Thanks for the question. First, you’ll want to import the photos to your personal computer:
    iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
    After doing so, you can then sync the photos over to your iPad:
    iOS: Syncing your data with iTunes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1386
    Also, you can enable Photo Stream so that new photos taken with your iPhone will automatically appear on your iPad. For more information regarding Photo Stream, see this resource:

  • Why is my iPhone Camera Roll using 10.0 GB but my Photo Library only using 6.3 GB?

    When I look at usage in my iPhone, Camera Roll is using 10.0 GB, but Photo Library is only using 6.3 GB. I do not have Photo Stream enabled. Why the difference?

    In my case, Camera Roll is just the pictures taken on my phone and the remainder of the photos on my phone were synced from my computer via iTunes and are under "Photo Library". If you go to Photos and then tap Albums at the bottom right, it will show which pictures are in the Camera Roll. My Camera Roll usage is much smaller than Photo Library as I only have 2 pictures there since I regularly import them to my computer where I have more control and extra backup capability. I then sync back some that I want to also have on the phone.

  • Iphone camera not recognized in Windows 7

    Hello Fellow iPhone users
    I am having a problem with the iPhone camera on the iPhone 3g 3.0. I cannot get it to allow me to open up the camera to get the pictures off of it. When I go to Devices and Printers it shows the Apple Mobile Device USB driver and that is installed fine and it works in ITunes, however, it also shows the iPhone but with the yellow triangle and exclamation point. It says that the driver is not installed properly. The status is needs troubleshooting. When I go to properties, it says "The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)". I have tried reinstalling iTunes, unplugging, replugging the iPhone. I have tried a different iPhone (a 3GS with version 3.1.2) with the same results(they both work fine in XP).
    I have been trying to get this working for a few hours and have no idea what is wrong. Are there any other drivers I can get? How about reinstalling the usb drivers? This is on an Acer netbook, and it was working with Windows 7 starter, but when I upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate, it stopped working. I assume it is a driver issue, but I don't know what other drivers I can use or which ones to change out. Other USB cameras are working fine.
    Please let me know if you need any other information.
    Thank you for any help you can provide.

    Windows sometimes won't detect the phone and allow camera/scanner access if there are pics on the iphone not taken by the iphone camera. Email any non camera taken pics to yourself, download them on your computer, then delete the pics from the iphone. When you reconnect your computer it should start the camera/scanner download as usuall.

  • My iphone came up with that timing circle and just turned off and did not come back on ? even when i charge it now it still wont turn on ,do you know the problem?

    my iphone came up with that timing circle and just turned off and did not come back on ? even when i charge it now it still wont turn on ,do you know the problem?

    If the battery was empty (and it may then take 10 to 15 minutes of charging before it will respond), then have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.

  • Is the only way to zoom on iphone camera to pinch and spread the screen?

  • How to delete iPhone camera roll's photos in new version Photos for Mac

    Hi,
    Before upgrade to new version Photos for Mac. I was using iPhoto + Photo Stream to manage all the photos took from my iPhone.
    Photo Stream will upload all new photos to iPhoto; when I connect iPhone to my mac, I can use iPhoto to delete my iPhone's camera roll's photos to clear the storage space.
    After I upgraded to Photos; the Photo Stream still running well, all new photos also upload to Photos' library, however, when I connect iPhone to my mac.
    Photos doesn't offer me any method to delete my iPhone camera roll's photos.
    What I can find is "Import Selected" or "Import All" and "Delete items after import" these functions are doesn't help.
    Because, all the photos are already imported by Photo Stream, when I click "Import All", all the imported photos will "RE-IMPORT" again and the photos will duplicate in my library.
    This is also a BUGS in Photos because in old version iPhoto when I import a photo which has already imported before, the software will pop-up a Dialogue Box to ask me options to choose between "Skip" or "Overwrite" or "Duplicate".
    Do anyone know how to delete the iPhone camera roll's photos by using new version Photos?
    Thank you very much.

  • IPhone Camera App Crashed...

    Hello, I was taking some pictures with the iPhone camera app when all of the sudden after taking the picture, the camera app closed and the iPhone screen showed the shutdown spinwheel for a few seconds and then returning the the unlock screen. When I reopened the picture app, the picture that I took before the crash was gone. What could have cause this crash issue? but most importantly where's the picture? is it gone or was transmitted to somewhere else (folder, camera roll, iCloud, etc.)?
    Thanks for the assistance!
    P.S. I am looking at the iPhone logs and see that there was a springboard crash near the time of the crash. Can a springboard crash cause the iPhone to show a shutdown spinwheel and then leave you back in the log in screen?

    I am using iOS6.1.1
    Can you try to load up the apples and try take some HDR photos.
