i cant get my camera to work it says its on but has no feedback, any ideas?

Here are my best suggestions for your camera problem:
• If Apple's http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
   suggestions do not help you, (the "reset" suggested there
   often restores normal function,) continue with the following.
• Use your Mac's Disk Utility to repair permissions and then
   download and apply the latest Combo Update for your Mac OS.
   If you are using OS X 10.7 or later, reinstall OS X.
• Repair permissions again immediately following the system restart
   that completes the Combo update or reinstall.
Properly applying the Combo version of updates can sometimes correct software problems, but, if your trouble is caused by a hardware problem, there are no user serviceable parts of the camera.  For hardware help, contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service.
(Over time, Apple has changed the built-in camera's name on newer Macs from "iSight" to "FaceTime" and then to "FaceTime HD."  Regardless of the name of your Mac's built-in camera, the same info and troubleshooting applies.)
   Unless you have a current backup, make one now.
  Then use the final "Troubleshooting" suggestion:
"... contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service."

  • After updating to io5 my front camera wont work, have done a restore but still no good,any ideas anyone

    I have an iphone 4 and have updated it to io5, the camera on the front does not work now, it will not open the shutter, I restored it but still no joy, has any one had this before and how do I fix it please

    I am having the SAME problem. It is making me want an Android this is so FRUSTRATING! Here's my issue:
    I have an iPhone 4 with 5.1.1. It fairly recently decided to have tons of issues connecting to Wifi. The 2 places I connect to Wifi are my home and my work. At home, my phone manages to about 95% of the time find the wifi signal, but I have to go manually put in my wifi password every time I want to connect, otherwise it'll just stay on 3G. When it doesn't find the signal I have to keep refreshing it and it eventually finds it.
    At work, the wifi that EVERYONE else uses, I have the most trouble connecting to. I have to manually go into my wifi settings and find the signal. That is IF it actually finds it. About 50% of the time it just doesn't find it. Then about 40% of the time it sees it, but when I try to connect it says "Unable to join the network "SEWELL"" (that's the name of the Wifi). Then about 10% of the time I can find it and connect to it. AND then sometimes when I am finally connected it'll just kick me off in the middle of browsing and I'll go back to 3G. This happens with work and home.
    I have tried EVERY troubleshooting method. I reset the network settings, I soft reset the phone, I did a full restore and deleted everything and still it doesn't work. I reset it all the time trying to get it to work and it just does nothing.
    Any other suggestions or am I just going to have to deal with it until the Samsung Galaxy S III comes out?
    Do you think if I took it to an Apple store they would replace it and that might help (iPhone 4 probably had it for over a year)? I know other people with iPhones (3G and 4's) and theirs work fine so I don't know how it can be the Apple 5.1.1 update?
    HELP APPLE!!!!

  • HT203167 Cant find downloaded rental film. ITunes says its downloaded but nothing in download screen

    Cant find downloaded rental film. ITunes says its downloaded but nothing in download screen

    If you've downloaded it on the iPad then it should be in the Videos app (iTunes on the iPad is just the iTunes store) :
    If you can't find it in there then have you got a film age rating set in Settings > General > Restrictions that is hiding it ?

  • I cant get my camera to work on safari or firefox

    Hi,
    Also.
    Do you have the Google Video Chat Plug-in installed ?
    You may have gained this by Installing Chrome if you did not manually download the Installer for Intel Macs Only.
    This can conflict with the Flash Plug-in.

  • My Creative Cam wont work properly in MSN Messenger! I cant get the effects to work PLEASE HELP!

    When I open the webcam centre everything works fine I can get all the effects...BUT when I open messenger (MSN) I get a good picture but when I open the effects window I cant get the effects to work in there.... I went to the creative site which tells me I can use this cam ok in MSN Messenger....Please help before I pull my hair outThankyouBillie-Jean x

    I had the exact same issue but finally after much reading found that the Advanced Video FX utility must be activated first, then open the Web Cam Center.
    On the upper left side just above your image is a Device Selection box. You may not redily recognize it as such.. Click on the down arrow just to the left of the Format tab and select the "Creative WebCam(With Video Effects)". Now try the effects. This did the trick for me. Hope it works for you!

    Well, have you tried leaving the monitor cable connected to the onboard VGA and tried booting up? Sometimes you need to disable it within BIOS.

    There is something wrong in your settings. As the settings for each email provider are different you need to check your email server's web site for instructions. Most now have specific instructions for the iPhone. Also see Apple's instructions: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1385

    Could you capture your screen and post it. Have the layers panel open and any layers that are collapsed, expanded. We will need to see the entire screen, as some information in the tab is important as well.
