How to fix front camera

Front camera won't work

Apple Genius Bar will only replace the hardware if it is still under warrantee. My iPad 2 isn't..
This has to be a software issue with the new iOS as it seems to commonplace to be a hardware problem. It's arising across iPads and iPhones. Best we can do is make apple aware and hope they can resolve the issue in an updated version of iOS7...sooner rather than later a I can't Skype or FaceTime in my iPad anymore..

    You're welcome.
    The 6.1.4 update had nothing to do with this. If it did, then every iPhone with 6.1.4 installed would have the same problem.
    Apple doesn't support downgrading the firmware, which won't change anything.
    If an Apple Store is miles away, then call AppleCare.

  • How to access front camera

    Am devaloping a small applicatioin using JME.. I have to retrive image from front camera for that.. S there any API to access front cam in a Midlet application.. Anyone who knows ploease explain in detail.. Thanks in advance..

    Hello mlmarsh2, To access the front camera, will the camera is on and showing the live view, swipe up from the bottom and you will see a taskbar with the option to "Change camera". I see from another post you created you were having difficultly with some apps uninstalling.To restore Windows back to factory, turn off the tablet completely. Press and hold the Start button and Volume Down button simultaneously for a few seconds.A screen will come on showing some options.Choose F11 for the System Recovery option and follow the prompts. Hope that helps. PS: If this is the first time you have used a tablet, you might prefer the traditional desktop like Windows 7 had. You can install Classic Shell Setup on the Stream Tablet for the old desktop and it will work just as good as it does on a tower or laptop.

  • How to fix the camera of an iPad?

    My iPads camera app keeps on getting frozen  after clicking just one picture and doesn't save my pictures which I clicked.

    Hi there, maybe you need to restart the app.
    Double-click on the homebutton to reveal the multitask-bar and then hold you finger on the camera-app. Tap on the minus-sign to "close" the app. Then try to restart it by tapping the Camera-icon again.
    If this doesn't work, you could try a soft reset of your iPad (data is not getting lost by this) by pressing the homebutton and sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 10 seconds until you iPad shuts off and the Apple logo appears. Then release the buttons and when your iPad is ready, try to tap the Camera app again to see if things are working out for you

  • My iPod touch 5 front camera isn't working, how do I fix it?

    My I pod touch 5 front camera isn't working. How can I fix it. I have also already tried to reset it multiple times.

    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • 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.

  • One day it just stopped focusing and the pictures are blurry.  If I switch it to the front camera it works well and looks like it should but when I turn it back it goes back to being out of focus and I can't figure out how to fix it?

    i installed ios 7.after  that my primary cam, one day it just stopped focusing and the pictures are blurry.  If I switch it to the front camera it works well and looks like it should but when I turn it back it goes back to being out of focus and I can't figure out how to fix it?

    This advice will sound like a joke or prank, but believe me it worked on my iPhone 5 and my daughter's.  The lens mechanism got stock on each of our iPhones.  We found a post on these message boards that said to hold the iPhone about 6 inches above a table or counter top and drop it so that it lands flat on it's back.  Now try the camera ...Fixed!  It has been more than six months now and neither of our iPhones have ever experienced the problem again. 

  • The front and back camera on my itouch second generation stopped working. Any thoughts on how to fix it?

    The front and back camera on my itouch second generation stopped working. Any thoughts on how to fix it?

    First, try to reset the device 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 work, set it up as new device again, explained in this article:
    How to back up your data and set up as a new device
    If still no luck, get it serviced, the issue might not be software related.

    Really.  You cannot exchange a 32 gb for a 16 gb at all.
    Sorry.

  • My camera always freezes when I try to switch to front camera view. How can I fix this?

    The original camera app on my iPod touch does not work. The camera shutter would not open. I purchased and downloaded another camera app and it works- only the camera freezes when Itouch the icon in top left corner to get it to switch to front camera view. Has anyone had this problem? If so is there something I can do to correct it?

    Have you tied the standard fixes:
    - Reset:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    -restore the iPod from backup
    - Restore the iPod to factory defaults.
    - Also look at this long-running previous discussion on your problem.

  • My front camera lend wont open it just stays blurry and one know how to fix this? Restore didnt help tried it already

    front camera wont open it stays blurry its an ipod touch 5g

    Hey Techmeout, If a restore to new did not solve, most likely dealing with a hardware issue. Contact your Apple store or the Apple Genius Bar, set up an appointment and have your iPod evaluated for possible hardware issue. Then go from there.  Good luck. Cheers.
