Grainy pictures on the iPhone 4

Hi All,
Does anyone else face this? I took a couple of pictures using the iPhone 4, while some of them came out really well, most of the time, the images are blurry and grainy.
I ensured that HDR mode is turned on. Frankly I don't understand what HDR mode is for.
Could my camera be faulty?

You are probably taking pictures with insufficient light if they appear grainy. The grainess is caused when the normal electrical "noise" in the sensor is stronger than the incoming light. If these are flash pictures remember that the range of the flash is only about 5 feet.
The other possible cause is a dirty lens, but I assume you checked for this.

  • I upgraded Windows 7 to Windows 8 with iTunes installed. Now my iPhone 4S is no longer recognized in iTunes. Connecting with USB sends me directly to the MS app that downloads pictures from the iPhone. Suggest this is a question of missing Apple driver.

    I upgraded Windows 7 to Windows 8 with iTunes installed. Now my iPhone 4S is no longer recognized in iTunes. Connecting the iPhone with USB sends me directly to the MS app that downloads pictures from the iPhone. Suggest this is a question of missing Apple driver for Windows 8, iTunes and iPhone. MS does not care! This seems to be a general problem with Windows 8 that a number of drivers that used to work with Windows 7 now do not work, ie. iPhone to iTunes, HTC to HTCSync, Samsung to Kies etc. I need this connection to work in order to syncronize with Outlook and my iTunes library.

    Maybe it would have been a better idea to confirm that iTunes is supported in Windows 8 before buying a computer with that Operating System.
    There will be a new version of iTunes released this month... no one forced you to upgrade prior to a supported version of iTunes being released.
    Like the fact that you just called most of us stupid there

  • I would like to transefer some pictures from the Mac to the Iphone. How do i do this without losing all the pictures on the iphone through Synching?

    The options in itunes seem quite limited. For instance, I have culled the pictures on the iphone down to a nice 250 or so pics i dont want to lose. But when I try to add another selected folder through itunes it wants to erase all the pictures on the iphone I have. I could create a folder out of all the pic i have on it now and then select that as well when Synching but that means any new pictures i like in the future won't be saved either if i wish to add more from the compuiter through synching.
    How do i add a folder of pictures from itunes without affecting the pictures on the camera roll.  This doesnt seem to be an issue when adding music manually to an ipod for instance. Wheres the openness of the system to hand-pick and create your own scenario?
    Thanks for the help...
    Pic-ed off.

    Are they in iPhoto?
    Some possibilities:
    iPhoto Sharing:
    IEnable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and move to the other machine. There, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
    Any user can drag a pic from the Shared Library to their own in the iPhoto Window.
    Remember iPhoto must be running on both machines for this to work.
    Use iPhoto Library Manager
    Export from one Library and copy to the other mchine and import there

  • Spill water on my Iphone and I want to recover photos on my Ipad The pictures on the Iphone were not shared with other apple devices is it possible get my photos from the iCloud ?

    Had you set your iPhone up to use Photo Stream?
    Had your performed an iCloud backup of your iPhone before it was damaged?
    If you did neither of the above, then your photos are not in the cloud, and they are gone.
    If you performed an iCloud backup, then it would contain the photos in the iPhone's Camera Roll (taken on the iPhone) at the time of your last backup.  You could restore this iCloud backup to a device.
    If your iPhone used Photo Stream, those photos are immediately accessible to your iPad if you set it up to use the same Photo Stream.

  • How to export Videos and Pictures from the iPhone 4 to my PC

    Hello together,
    maybe this question will have a simple answer, but finding this answer seems to not so simple...at least for me...
    I have several 100 photos and some videos (made by the iPhone 4) on my iPhone 4.
    I want to export some fotos and also a video to my Windows PC to give these files to friend. For example the video is to long to send via Email. I would like to burn the files on a disc.
    How can I export these files to my PC?
    I tried to use a SW called ifunbox, but this SW always closes with an error message before even starting up.
    I also found some information about copying pictures and videos directly to the PC via the Windows Explorer. Unfortunately my iPhone 4 is not listed in the Windows Explorer and I can not find the iPhone via the device manager...
    Can anybody help me?

    Hello roaminggnome,
    thank you for the quick reply.
    I tried Photoshop Elements, which is also mentioned in the pdf file you linked in your reply.
    Unfortunately I can not select the iPhone 4 from the device list. It seems that the iPhone is not detected.
    In iTunes I have no problems...
    ...any ideas...

  • Manage pictures with the Iphone

    Hi There
    In order to avoid the tedious process of deleting pictures directly from the Iphone, can anyone guide me through the process of deleting photos which are exported to the computer , so at the next synchronization, they won't appear in the Iphone Camera Roll?
    ( does that make sense ?)
    Also, can I import in the Iphone using Itunes or Iphoto photos taken with another camera ? or do I need to use a third party software or App?
    I've owned an Iphone for 2 years now and I still didn't get around to work this out.
    Thanks for your help
    David

    You should be able to do this with iphoto. Treat the camera roll as you would import photos from a digital camera. You should be given an option of moving or copying the photos and deleting them when you are done.

  • How do I get pictures from the iPhone to my Windows 7 PC?

    I am running Windows 7, and I have iTunes installed. When I connect my iPhone, iTunes opens automatically, but I can't access the pictures from Windows Explorer. It used to show up in Computer, but it suddenly stopped. I don't think anything has changed since then. How do I get the pictures onto my computer?

    The only way you can get pictures FROM your iPhone to your computer is if you took the pictures with your iPhone. The only other way you can move photos from the iPhone is to mail them to yourself ( which is very time consuming). If you are trying to get photos from your computer TO your iPhone...in iTunes, click on "Photos" and make sure you check the photos you want to sync.............then sync.If you're still having problems, let me know.

  • Can we Zoom while taking pictures by the iPhone 3 GS camera?

    Hello Friends,
    I have a very simple query, that I am not being able to get answer to !
    Can we Zoom in while taking pictures by I phone 3GS camera?
    I couldn't find any specification in the User guide about the same.
    Pls reply.
    Thanks a lot !
    regards

    As already provided, the iPhone includes a fixed lens and does not include a digital zoom feature. Although there are some 3rd party apps that provide for a digital zoom, you can accomplish the same with photo viewing/editing software on your computer after importing a photo that was captured by your iPhone.

  • Sending pictures from the iphone to bluetooth ready printers

    I was trying out a new HP printer the C309 and the printer is a bluetooth printer. The printer does see the iphone but the iphone doesnt see printer. Is there something wrong. I have other bluetooth devices already paired with no problems. I was just wondering if the iphone doesnt support printing pictures via bluetooth yet or what! Does anyone know about this?

    The iPhone does not support printing via BT. FWIW, there are some printer specific apps that support printing via wifi.

  • Recently, my computer hard drive crashed. If I sync my iphone with the new commputer will I lose all the pictures on the iphone. I lost the music that was not saved on my itouch.

    Recently my hard drive crashed. I had to get a new computer. I lost songs on my itouch. Will I lose the pictures on my iphone?

    Ihas always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your comptuer for just such an occasion.
    Use your backup copy to put everything back.

  • TS3322 Hi I moved my photos from my computer and then synced with my iphone. The pictures library on my computer had some pictures on it but they overwrote my pictures on my phone. Can I recover my pictures on the iphone as I have lost my back up on my co

    Hi, I deleted my backup of Photos and the only place I had the photos were on my old phone and when I connected to download the photos I synced and the library on the computer is now on the phone and my old photos are gone...Can they be recovered?

    Sorry, Photo Library photos are not contained in the iPhone backup so restoring from the backup won't recover these photos.  (They aren't backed up because they are assumed to already be on your computer since that's where they were synced from in the first place.)  I'm afraid there's no way to get them back unless they were backed up somewhere esle on your computer.  (What you experienced is one reason why I have automatic syncing disabled in iTunes.  If you want to do this so you have more control over when your phone is synced, go to iTunes preferences, on the devices tab check "Prevent...from syncing automatically".)

  • Grainy pictures in the internet

    Hello, i am using facebook and some profile pictures of friends are grainy on the home page. nevertheless after clicking on their profile they aren't grainy anymore. i asked some friends who own a macbook as well but they haven't got that prob. is there anything wrong with my setting? thanks for answering.

    Are you using iCloud Photo Library? Then syncing is automatic and your mobile devices should be showing the same albums automatically.
    See:  iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ
    If you are not sing iCloud Photo Library, use iTunes to sync selected albums to your mobile devices.
    For more information and instructions for transferring photos using iTunes, open iTunes, then choose Help > iTunes Help, or see:  iOS: Syncing photos using iTunes

  • How can I recover deleted pictures from the iphone? I accidentally honeymoon pictures, is there some sort of recycle bin feature?

    How  can I recover deleted pictures? is there a recycle bin with iphone 4?

    No recycle bin. When selecting Delete for a photo in the Camera Roll, a big red Delete Photo button is provided along with Cancel. Selecting Delete Photos means deleted.
    Photos/videos in the Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera. The Camera Roll is also included with your iPhone's backup which is updated by iTunes as the first step during the iTunes sync process. If you synced your iPhone with iTunes since the photos were captured by your iPhone and you haven't synced your iPhone with iTunes again since the photos were deleted, you can try restoring your iPhone with iTunes from your iPhone's backup.
    If you have an iCloud account, you have the option to update your iPhone's backup wirelessly which is automatic when your iPhone is connected to a power source while connected to an available wi-fi network. With an iCloud account, you also have the Photo Stream option. All photos captured by your iPhone are placed in your iCloud Photo Stream. Deleting a photo from your iPhone's Camera Roll does not delete the photo from your Photo Stream.
