For some reason just my iPod5 front camera doesn't work.

My back camera does work and everytime I select my front camera, it doesn't open. I haven't dropped my ipod and I have reset my settings and turned the power off my Ipod. Is there an obvious way to fix this problem or should I get my iPod repaired?

You can try a Reset first: hold down the home and sleep button, wait for the Apple logo, let go of the buttons.
If that doesn't work try a Restore from Backup in iTunes. Still no go? Try a Restore as new.
If that still doesn't work make a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store.

Front camera doesn't work! Battery dies super fast!

Hello! I received my ipod touch 5th generation as a bday gift in November 2012 and I'm having a couple of issues with it. First the battery dies really fast. I have wifi on all the time and I dunno if this is the issue, but using music playback for about 4-5 hrs/day and reading/instagram/fb/WWF for like 1-2 hrs, it lasts about 15 - 20 hrs. I think there has to be a problem because my touch 3rd gen lasted longer basically doing the same thing. And if I play a video for <1hr, the battery lasts less than 12 hrs. That's one thing. Also, a couple of times both the front and back camera have frozen up, and for about a week now, the front camera doesn't work. When I switch to it, it closes up as if it's taking a picture, but it never opens up again, it just stays there. This is for video and camera. The front one just doesnt work. PLEASE HELP! I'm obssesed with this thing and I'm really disappointed by these features. I dunno what to do. And the worst is that after I try to switch to the front camera, I can't switch back. I have to restart the ipod to be able to use the back camera, because it just doesn't do anything.

For the camera problem
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

The battery life you are getting is normal and expected. If you have a concern after doing the above make an appointment at the Genius Bar.

I have used Image Capture to scan images/documents and then saved them as either PDFs or PNG files. For some reason, just this past week Image Capture will no longer save the file. It scans, and the Scan Results window pops up, but it won't save file.

I have used Image Capture to scan images/documents and then saved them as either PDFs or PNG files. For some reason, just this past week, Image Capture will no longer save the file. It scans, and the Scan Results window pops up, but it won't save file.
The file name has no special character in it, just letters and no spaces.
I have done this in the past and it has worked, but now it will not.
I have not upgraded any software, that I am aware of.
After scanning, the Image Capture pops up the Scan Results with the file name in the window, but neither the Scan Results nor the Image Capture window responds to inputs. The Image Capture window is frozen, with only the "Overview" and "Cancel" buttons active (but non-responsive).
Is this a software issue or a scanner hardware issue? I am using a HP Photosmart C6200 series printer/scanner on a network using a Time Capsule airport.
Thanks.

I had the same problem.
Got a 90% fix. Apparently the Mavericks preferences won't work with Yosemite, so I just deleted the Image Capture preferences.
Unfortunately, the "Scan to" folder seems to be permanently set to the Pictures folder.
1. Quit Image Capture
2. Go to Finder > Go > Home, which opens up your home folder (named after your user name)
3. Open Library > Preferences > com.apple.ImageCapture.plist - Drag this file to the Trash
4. Start "Image Capture", click "Details" and change all your settings as you prefer
5. Quit and restart "Image Capture". Notice it remembers all your settings except "Scan to" folder. It insists on saving to "Pictures".
That's as far as I was successful. I tried changing the "Scan to" folder to "Desktop", but on launch, Image Capture always sets it back to "Pictures".
This is what I tried:
6. Download and install "Pref Setter" from http://www.nightproductions.net/prefsetter.html
7. Quit "Image Capture". Right-click on "com.apple.ImageCapture.plist" and open with Pref Setter.
8. Search for "Pictures", which finds "~/Pictures" (the tilde character at the start means your home directory).
9. Double-click on "~/Pictures" and change it to the folder you prefer. I like "~/Desktop"
10. Choose File > Save then Quit from Pref Setter. Note that re-opening the plist file still shows "~/Desktop"
11. Start up "Image Capture" -- on startup, "Image Capture" sets "Scan to" folder to "Pictures"
I consider this a bug.

As I said in your original post, iTunes U is not available to any institution, government or otherwise, in South Korea. If or when Apple will extend iTunes U to your country is something none of us here can say, and Apple will not until such time as they're ready to make an announcement. What Apple's criteria and requirements are for being able to open iTunes U in a given country is unknown; there is no "procedure" that any of us here can state or direct you to that you could initiate. It's totally up to Apple, and if they are working on this, I'm sure they know who in the SK government they would need to work with.
Sorry, but you will just have to wait and hope that something develops in the future.
Regards.

For some reason the speakers on my phone do not work unless it is plugged into a power source. Why?

If no change after the following steps, your iPhone likely has a hardware problem.
Power your iPhone off and on.
An iPhone reset, which is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release.
Restore your iPhone with iTunes from the backup.
Restore your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the backup.

My ipad front camera doesn't working,cannot take a picture this moment,how to fix this problem?

My ipad front camera doesn't working,cannot take a picture this moment,how to fix this problem?

Try closing the Camera app via the taskbar and see if it works when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Camera app '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 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.

I have an iPad two and my front camera doesn't work I have tried resetting it Clicking it twice nothing works can you please help me!!??

Iphone 5c front cam doesn't work...

hey, as I said my FRONT cam doesn't work on my Iphone 5c.. I had it 2 weeks ago. When I open the photo app its work good for the
other cam (extern one) but when I wanna take a selfie with the front cam it's like loading and I can't take any picture from the front cam. I'm on an Iphone 5c 8Go on 8.1.2. I was waiting for a bug correction on the new update but it still not working... HELP!
here the front -->

Hey there biloute35,
If you still have not been able to use the front facing camera, I would like to recommend the troubleshooting in the following article:
Get help with the camera on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If you see a closed lens or black screen when you open the Camera app, try these steps:
Make sure that there’s nothing blocking the camera lens. If you’re using a case, try removing it.
Force the app to close, then open the Camera app again.
Restart your device, then open the Camera app again.
If your device has a front and rear camera, try both cameras by tapping (camera swap icon). If you see the closed lens or black screen on only one camera, take your device to an Apple Retail Store or Authorized Service Provider for more help.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling

My iPod got wet, now front camera doesn't work

My iPod was in my pocket for a day when it was heavily raining like 2 months ago so I started checking if it was okay but it was wet so I wiped it and when I went on the camera the back camera was a bit weird but that went back to normal the same day, however my front camera is still broken. When I go to go on the front camera, the screen freezes and if I try to go on it through another app like snapchat or a photo editing app it either won't give me the option to do so or it will crash the app. Can this be fixed or do I have to just carry on with it not working?

The iPod has been water damaged...there is no way you can fix the problem. When it gets to be too annoying, or other functions fail, take it to an Apple store to get an out-of-warranty replacement. That will typically cost $99-249 in the US depending on the model and storage capacity.

For some reason, just recently i am unable to send e mails from my aol account from my i phone. I cannot send pics etc. as e mail either, when i have always been able to before. Can anyone help ?

just recently i am unable to send any sort of e mails from my i phone using my aol e mail account. I am unable to forward pics to others via e mail. It simply will not allow, when i have always been able to before.

We took our MacBook Pro to the apple store, after a long trial and error, they FIXED the problem!
It turns out that one of the files was corrupt, it was either Java or Silverlight.
My suggestion to you is to remove Java than restart and then reinstall Java. See if hotmail works. If not, than, remove Silverlight reboot than reinstall Silverlight.
For us, it was one of those two files that were corrupt and that was causing hotmail to not be able to send email.
I'm not sure what the procedure is to remove and reinstall files, all I know is that my wives MacBook can now send email using hotmail.
Hope this helps.

For some reason, since last nite, my Ipod doesn't recognize when i have turned OFF the hold...it still reads as hold

my Ipod doesn't recognize when i have turned OFF the hold...it still reads as hold..any ideas?
thanks

A Reset (in link from previous post) is not a Restore. It does not erase the iPod. A Reset is THE method to "re-boot the whole system."
The reason for the Hold switch has nothing to do with turning an iPod ON or OFF. It exists because most iPods have touch-based controls. The Hold switch is there to lock the controls, in situations when the iPod is playing music and you don't want to inadvertently touch the controls while handling the iPod.
Pressing and holding the Play/Pause button turns an iPod OFF. But I hardly ever manually turn OFF my iPod (except for my iPod shuffle). I just stop playing music and leave it alone. The display backlight goes off by itself within a few seconds, and if the controls are not touched, the iPod soon goes into the same power saving mode as turning it OFF manually.

For some reason my back button and refresh button dosent work,,,also my passwords are not saved in my craiglist windows

i just had some update today didnt really read it it was with mozilla so i just installed, now my pages were the wrong sizes and the toolbar with the backpage and refresh dosent work also my passwords are not being saved on my craiglist page

Don't worry about the time, as it took us a while to get it done. I learned a few things along the way, about Button Layer Set order, and what happens, once the Menu has been Imported.
Most of it will not apply to your original questions, at least not as I read them, but might prove useful in time.
Good luck, and happy reading...

I use to be able to hear podcasts when selected but for some reason I no longer can - it doesn't even appear to be playing and there's no sound when I try to play Pandora stations. Help!

I can no longer hear podcasts or Pandora music. Help!

Hello Budgets,
I would be concerned too if there was no audio coming from the speakers on my iPad. I found an article with steps to troubleshoot audio issue. The title of the article says iPhone, but most of the steps are still relevant to the iPad. You can skip any steps that apply only to the iPhone:
iPhone: Can't hear through the receiver or speakers

Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.

For some reason my volume on my iPad isn't working? I know how to turn it up and everything yes but I can't hear anything at all and I've tried everything can anyone help?

I can't get my volume to work and have tried everything! Anyone know anything else I can try I really don't want to send it in if I don't have 2!

I am making the assumption - based on the "tags" in your description - that you do not have sounds in apps, games and things like that - but you can hear sound when you use the music app. ......
If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds have been muted.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.
