I can't take a picture with my playbook

The camera doesn't work anymore. When I try to take a pic or record a video, I have a message error. 

Rule of thumb with apparent hardware faults is if a restart does not fix it, reinstall OS using de-brick usb method..
If it still does not work it's a hardware fault, and depending on the warranty status and your country consumer law take appropriate steps with your supplier or RIM

  • Can I take a picture with my Mac?

    Can I take a selfie with the camera on my Mac?

    Yes. Look in the Applications folder for Photobooth. (It may already be on the dock.)
    Double click to open it. When you are ready to take a shot, click the red camera icon below the picture.

  • Can you take good pictures with your Z1 Compact?

    Hi,
    So many people here complaining about the overall picture quality of Z1C (I’m one of them).
    Sony offered me to send my phone to their service center so they could check if something was wrong with my phone.
    I wonder if it could be the case and that after being fixed by Sony it could be a decent camera without the overprocessing, lack of detail and the noise seen on all my pictures now?
    So i’d like to hear from you, please let us know if you are able to take good quality pictures. Maybe we are just unlucky people with bad units.
    Also, do you think that the service center can actually do something with a bad phone or i'm just wasting my time?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    camera on my Z1C does fairly good images (in manual mode, good light conditions), but I do think it's absolutely inadequate to the sensor size and resolution - there is extremely much noise in all of the pictures. In low light conditions, my HTC Sensation (over 3 yrs old, 8MP) does a better job than my Z1C, which is really sad. The post-procesing must be somehow flawed in Sony's phones (last Sony's phone I had that took IMO adequately good pictures was the Xperia S), because Apple or Samsung can produce quite the same (in good light), if not better photos (definitly in low light), with much worse optics.
    There are many test photos in the internet reviews, which are probably the best you can take with the Z1C. I'd say it's a general problem of Sony, nothing they can fix at the Service Center, but if the procedure is covered in your warranty, it's probably worth a shot - your lens could be defected, resulting in blurry photos.

  • Can someone help me with an iCloud problem when I take a picture with my iPhone 4s it some of the times go to my ipad2 but mostly it doesn't can anyone help me out

    I'm assuming you have Photo Stream set up of both devices.  However, it seems many users are experiencing the same as you - my take is that streaming photos is not foolproof yet.

  • When i take a picture with flash in a dark place , the photo appears with a blue line . how can i default this ?

    when i take a picture with flash in a dark place , the photo appears with a blue line . how can i default this ? is this normal ???

    You probably have a filter set for the normal camera mode but not the square.
    To fix, in Photo mode, touch the filter icon (three circles) and select None for the filter.

  • When I take a picture with my IPhone and send it to my home computer, why do the pictures turn sideways or upside down (it's an HP windows computer)

    When I take a picture with my IPhone and send it to my home computer (HP Windows) why does the picture turn out sideways or upside down?

    OK, here's the explanation.  When you take a picture, the iPhone knows what orientation it is in (portrait, landscape, etc.) and adds that information to the picture's EXIF data so it knows which side is up.  Apple devices can decode this information and show the picture right side up when it is viewed.  However, Windows computers cannot do this.  They are not capable of decoding the orientation information added by the iPhone, so they are displayed in a default orientation (which may not be right side up).
    This only happens on Windows machines, and unfortunately there is nothing you can do about it, except use the rotation buttons in Windows picture view to orient the photo correctly.

  • My iPad 2 is updated to iOS 6. My question is, can it take panoramic pictures? I tried looking around to see if i could figure out how, but no luck. Help please.

    My iPad 2 is updated to iOS 6. My question is, can it take panoramic pictures? I tried looking around to see if i could figure out how, but no luck. Help please.

    When you look at how they distribute apps it seems that iPods/iPhones are deemed more portable, which is why they have the better camera features, stuff like weather and passbook and stocks, while Apple doesn't seem to plan for the iPad being used as peoples cameras or being carried around with them on a daily basis....and I know evidenc is to the contrary. I've seen people using their iPad as a camera in national parks and at disneyland.

  • Cannot take a picture with Camileo X100?

    After connecting my Camileo X100 with the RCA connector to my LG LCD TV, browsing through my pictures and eventually unplugging the camera, something wierd happened.
    After I turned the camera on and tried to take a picture, nothing happened. I can't take a picture, shoot a video, zoom in and out or set the picture and video preferences and settings. I can only browse through the pictures and videos that I took before. It seems like my camera is stuck in the same mode when it was plugged to my TV.
    I removed the battery several times and nothing. The only button that is responding is the playback button and when trying to take a picture, only the (white, green, or red) square is shown. Please, help :(

    Uh-oh. I jump to conclusions too fast.
    This is my second question that I answered by myself but still, don't delete it if other users get this kind of problem.
    I basically turned on the camera, plugged it into the TV with my RCA connector, turned off the camera, unplugged it and turned it on again.
    *Now it's working prefectly.*

  • My ipod touch can not take pano pictures

    I cannot take pano pictures with my ipod touch,when I touch the option for pano it appears a blurried screen.I dont know what to do,it is a new device (2 weeks new)

    If that is not successful
    - 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: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar                                                              
    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable              
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • When i take a picture with flash the camera goes black

    Whenever I try to take a picture with flash on my camera goes black.

    There are two issues that come to mind... the first (hopefully it's this one) would be that you have a software issue that could be solved by restoring your iPhone from a back up...
    The other would be that you have a hardware issue with the camera ... if the camera worked fien before you upgraded, then likely it's a corrupted software file that can be solved by doing the restore.

  • Can I capture a picture with my ipad, and save it as a PNG and/or SVG file to a specific folder?

    Can I capture a picture with my ipad, and save it as a PNG and/or SVG file to a specific folder?

    Kind of, sort of. (You can't save as SVG, but you can export as PNG.) PS Touch projects themselves are self-contained UNTIL they are exported, and even then they'll get exported to a specific location. (e.g., To the Camera Roll or Gallery/Photos, to Creatve Cloud, etc.)
    The procedure would be to start a new project using the "add image" icon (looks like a landscape with a plus sign, in the lower right in the project selection user interface) > Camera. Take your picture, then PS Touch will bring you to the editing user interface. Edit your image as appropriate.
    Go back out to the project selection user interface by tapping the back arrow in the upper left to save. You can then export the project using the export icon (5th icon from the upper right).

  • HT4993 When i take a picture with my iphone 4s, with flash on the phone dies.  Has anyone else experienced this?  Does apple support this?

    When I take a picture with iphone 4s the phone dies.  I hold power button to power up.  Thanks for any Help.

    Apple Warranty should cover this hardware problem. You could try a Restore of the iPhone Firmware with iTunes on computer to confirm it is not software problem. Then make Genius reservation and take to Apple for resolution.

  • When i take a picture with my iphone and then forward the picture in an email (regardless of picture size) it will not send - any thoughts????? Thanks.

    When I take a picture with my iPhone and then forward the picture to an emaila ddress (regardless of picture size) it will not send the email with the pciture enclosed - any thoughts on how to fix ?????
    Thanks -

    The collum to the right listed similar problems.  The solution appears to be that under smtp outgoing settings the user name and password are listed as optional.  I have not plugged in the information and it seems to be working.  However from my office it always allowed the relaying.  The true test will be when I try to respond later from the road.
    Thank you for your help.
