ISight is not auto focusing .. any ideas?
that's it , it's not auto focusing, I can make it to focus using external apps like iGlasses....
**** , help ?Are you sure you have not configured iGlasses to allow Manual Focus ONLY? If that is not your problem, consider the following.
iSight's auto-focus needs plenty of light to work best. If you are testing in a work area that is not brightly lit, add plenty of light and test again.
If you have not already done so, try another Firewire cable. You should also try plugging iSight into another Firewire port. Finally, try your iSight on another Mac. These suggestions will help you rule out cable, connection, or computer specific problems.
If you have not done so already, test with more than one application that can use iSight . This will help rule out program software problems.
See if the focus testing suggestions in the second part of How to test your iSight to ensure it is functional give you any ideas that you have not already considered.
My only other suggestion that might help you is to disconnect all Firewire cables from your G5 iMac. Then download and apply the Mac OS X 10.4.8 Combo Update (PPC). Repair permissions after you restart your Mac. Finally, reconnect and check your iSight again.
Users have reported fixes to a variety of audio, video, connectivity, and software conflicts and unreliability issues after properly applying the Combo Updater. Using the Combo Updater to update to the current Mac OS X version also often seems to correct problems that exist with earlier 10.4.x versions.
If the suggestions above do not help you correct your problem, my only remaining suggestion for restoring your iSight's auto-focus is to contact your Apple Service Technician for service. There are no user serviceable parts in iSight.

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.

Why is my iPhone camera not as good as the one showed off by Steve Jobs?
In the WWDC 2010, Apple's CEO Steve Jobs showed off the iPhone 4's 5MP camera. But mine is not that great, I get a lot of camera noise and the digital zoom *****, the video capture has a lot of noise too. What's up? Is my iPhone messed up Or are all iPhone 4 cameras like this?

You are probably trying to take pictures outside of the lighting conditions that are optimal for the phone. Camera noise is almost always a sign of insufficient light.
And digital zoom is a hoax on the inexperienced photographer. All it does is use less of the sensor, so it is the same effect as cropping the photo on your computer after taking it. This is true of any digital camera, not just the iPhone's. -
IPhone Camera, Not to Bad
I did a little test today on the iPhone camera capability, is not my Nikon D200 , but fine for some snapshots. Some PP on CS3 to adjust the WB.
http://photos.nknd200.com/p174672880I am really impressed with the quality of pictures from my iPhone. As long as there is sufficient light the color depth is outstanding, the best I've seen for a phone. I think this is one thing Apple definitely did good with on the iPhone. Of course it doesn't have a flash but I can deal with that.

HT201401 iphone 4S not playing sound from itunes or videos
iphone 4S not playing music or sound through videos, it will ring, sometimes have the sound for keyboard clicks, have turned it off, reset, complete reset, no change, it seems to think it is on a dock connector and even switches back to dock connector when I m usin it in the car with Bluetooth, please help!!!
I am actually having the same issue. In Settings, lock sounds and keyboard clicks switches are set to "on" but that does not resolve it. iTunes, videos, and game audio (in addition to lock sounds and keyboard clicks) will not work through the speaker, but all work when headphones are plugged in. Ringtones and text tones function normally.

iphone 5 not able to hear audio through receiver jack. have cleaned it as well as restarted it. no issue. feeling depressed
- You are doing a double upmix/downmix. For me, I tried playing a movie I bought from ITUNES. It was 00% 5. sound but I, like you, only heard 4 channels. Then I realized that on my Logitech analog speakers that I had pressed the "matrix" button which is meant to physically take stereo and put it through all fi've speakers. So VLC was playing the file just fine but my speakers were taking the fi've to one sound and making it stereo.

HT201401 iphone 4s not charging when power ON
iphone 4s not charging when power ON
Amish/ Selvars4, i have exactly the same issue. I'm sure its software issue as mine has done it also just last week. i had it happen previously about 3 months ago also. the phone would only charge via a USB from a pc or if the phone was turned off.The way i got it working last time i kept reloading previous version of the phone back up and finally it worked normally again. It was always visible to iTunes so not an issue. Last week though i have had exactly the same problem as Selvars and itunes cannot see it now, and not charge by any device except when turned off. I did a backup and iTunes sync about 2 days before this problem started. (now thinking back it was the same when i had the previous issues with charging) this time its invisible to iTunes, pc,won't charge anywhere except turned off. i left it plugged into pc where it wasn't visible and then about 40mins later it recognised it. so i did a factory restore and update then reloaded a back up. it now is visible to pc and charges from pc and power adaptor but won't charge from a dock. Strange and Frustrating. Suvzero

Rear Camera will not auto focus
For the last 3 days my BlakcBerry's rear facing camera will not focus and takes blurry pictures. Front facing camera seem to be unaffected and takes good pictures. Have done soft and hard reboots and battery pull.
I am having the same issue. On another page people have said it's because the camera is stuck so they've fixed it by tapping the lense or smacking the phone against their hand by the lense and some people have fixed it by dropping it but none of those things have worked for me. Yesterday I shook my phone and it focused again but later on when I went back into the camera to take another picture it was back to not focusing anymore...

IPhone Camera not recognized by MacBook Pro
My camera is neither being recognized by Image Capture, nor by iPhoto.
This was working fine (iPhoto auto-launching to download the camera roll) before my vacation, and now I have 1000+ pictures on my iPhone that I want to download.
During my vacation I changed timezones, used airplane mode, etc.
Is there any way to get all of these photos off my iPhone without wiping the entire thing?
The whole phone still works properly, it still takes photos (I'm up to 1094 now).
Thus far I've tried rebooting everything, turning the iPhone off for a while, letting it be plugged into my laptop over night... Nothing works so far.
MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.10)When I plug in the iPhone, I get the following in the console.log:
Jul 23 10:59:19 Crainte kernel[0]: USBF: 3331.256 AppleUSBEHCI[0x3839000]::Found a transaction which hasn't moved in 5 seconds on bus 253, timing out!

Perhaps the camera device is timing out somehow...
I'm going to drive out to an Apple store to see if they can download the photos for me... and then maybe try a restore... -
Photos taken with iPhone camera not syncing during sync
I recently switched from the 3G to the iPhone 4 and have experienced some syncing issues which I never had before. For instance, previously, whenever I would sync / backup my phone, a message box would pop up asking if I wished to add new photos on my phone to my computer. If I chose yes, a folder (which was assigned a name according to the date of my backup) would be created on my computer into which all photos that I'd taken since my last backup would automatically be backed up to.
This no longer happens.
I took a lot of video clips at a wedding that I recently attended and I would like to back up the video and photos to my computer so that I can free up the memory on my phone.
Anyone have any ideas on how I can get things back to the way they used to be (ie get my phone to auto-backup all new photos from my camera roll to my computer when synced like it used to)?
Thanks.
~JAKIHave no idea since iTunes doesn't sync off photos from camera roll. (will embed as part of single backup file with rest of settings, but it doesn't sync photos).
Photos in camera roll get synced off by a variety of means. Like the Camera/Scanner wizard that normally by default pops up unless you altered some setting or installed some other photo software that has taken over that default.
You can also just browse to the phone from My Computer as it shows up as a camera (remember, the camera roll is treated differently than rest of device). Then once you browse to it you can just cut and paste files off. -
If I use one of the apps that does zooming will the autofocus lens of the 3GS improve the quality?
Not like you're wanting. The 'zoom' apps aren't the camera itself zooming. They zoom in on what image the camera is taking pictures of, which causes pixelation. The focus won't clear up the pixelation but it will make for a clearer pixelated picture. Sorry
