I've tried restarting it and everything, I honestly think this is out raging because i spend over $200 on this. To have for music and instagram. I use it about an hour a day, but i've only been using it for about 3 months although i've had it since December. Any suggestions that may help me?

The back camera is not working but front camera is

hi
my back camera is not working anywhere, not on the camera app nor on any other application.
the front camera is working still
since that time, the light is not working neither.
my iOs is already updated
what should i do?
THank you

Hi Moudira.me,
I understand that you are experiencing an issue with your back camera and LED light on your iPhone. Here is an article for you that will help you address this issue:
You see a closed lens or black screen
If you see a closed lens or black screen when you open the Camera app, try these steps:
Make sure that there’s nothing blocking the camera lens. If you’re using a case, try removing it.
Force the app to close, then open the Camera app again.
Restart your device, then open the Camera app again.
If your device has a front and rear camera, try both cameras by tapping (camera swap icon). If you see the closed lens or black screen on only one camera, take your device to an Apple Retail Store or Authorized Service Provider for more help.

I have purchased an iPad camera connection kit and when I attach my Canon Rebel XT I get a message that camera will not work.

In the title, I have this kit and it will allow me to connect my camera to the iPad (and my iPod) but gives me a message that this model camera (?) will not work with either. The camera is a Canon EOS Rebel XT and about 5 years old. I had an earlier connection kit that worked with a Canon (don't know the model) earlier but now I have no function with this equipment. Any suggestions?

With a Rebel XT / 350D you need to enable PTP (Picture Transfer Protocol) on it in its settings :
Is that what it's currently set to ?

Will not: rotate screen, camera will not work, iPad will not turn off, sound on side.

Ipad will not turn off, sound button does not work, camera does not work, screen will not rotate. Have new ios and update.

Reset all settings
Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings
Note: Data will not be affected but settings will be reset.

My iPad 4 is kicking me out of apps and camera will not work

The camera on my iPad 4 will not work and it will kick me out of apps constantly does any one have any ideas why this is happening

Reboot your iPad, restore your iPad, or take it to the Apple Genius Bar for them to look at it.

TS3367 my camera will not work

I've got a brand new macbook air. went to use facetime & camera is not working... showing a colorful distorted image. tried photobooth, same thing. anyone know what's wrong? thanks

I am going to assume, that even though you mentioned the MacBook Air, that this question does pertain to the iPad because you posted in the iPad forum.
Quit the camera app, FaceTime and PhotoBooth completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Or .... Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Droid 3 Reboots, Looses Apps, and Front Camera will not work

Here is the situation:
YES. My DROID3 randomly reboots itself. Annoying but manageable since mine only does it every couple of days or so.
NO. I cannot seem to find any help or way to resolve this.
YES. Apps dissappear occasionally. I turn the phone off, wait a couple of minutes, turn it back on and they are usually back.
YES. My front facing camera stopped working. If I try to use it, my phone crashes then I cannot initialize the rear facing camera either until I restart it then go into the app settings for the camera and clear the data and the rear works again but now I have to set the SD card as the location for pics again everytime.
NO. I did not downoad any untrusted apps.
I hope the response I get does not say "working diligently" or "they are aware of the issue"

Hello saxegotha2003,
I hate that you had to go through these problems with your Motorola DROID 3. I would like to offer assistance.
I would like to know what is the software versionnumber of your DROID 3? If not up to date, please check for updates. Also, have you tested the device in "Safe Mode"? This can help determine if the problem is hardware or software related. Please let me know the results of your testing so I can further assist.
Thanks,

Web Cam will not work

I recovered and reinstalled all software but the Webcam will not operate.
There is not Camera listed in the Imaging devices
but under sound, video and gaming there is the Cyberlink webcam virtual driver listed.
I did a hard reset by removing the battery and holding down the power button and had it check for new hardware but nothing was found.
The Cyberlink YouCam SW states that no webcam detected.

This sounds like the webcam is dead or now working anymore...install skype and test that will tell you if it detect the webcam or not.

After updating software to 8.2 on iPhone 6 both cameras will not work. Black screen.

I updated my iPhone 6's software to 8.2 and now when I want to take a picture the screen is black. If I try to activate the front camera it is also black. Sometimes it will work ok, however, most of the time it doesn't. I have also tried tapping the button to take a picture and the a preview comes up.... what?! Then I click retake and the camera will work. But I have to go through this whole process every time I want to send a picture. This must be a bug, Apple, please help! =(
