Incredible- Camera Lag (and lag in general)

hi there... i just got a "refurbished" incredible in replacement of my older one (speaker blew for the 3rd time)... anyway, in the transition, i lost 30 pictures.... 
BUT... the camera on this phone is taking over 30 seconds to even start after i push the camera option....  once it's on and we press the button to TAKE the actual photo-  it takes about 30 seconds to shoot the picture.  it's way too long... i don't know **bleep** to do to fix it.. make it faster.. i've messed with all the options, nothing makes the actual picture taking process quicker.  it's awful.
also- the phone itself seems to be lagging in general with almost every operation..  ideas?  anyone else having these sorts of issues?! 
thanks!  jennster

Is the self timer set??  If not, you may want to try booting up in safe mode and see if there is still a delay. If so, you then may have to do a master reset.

  • ISight camera lag on photobooth and video chat

    Ever since I updated my computer with the new safari and just a general software update 2 days ago, my camera has been lagging with video chat, and photobooth.
    I just got this computer in January and it has never had any problems with the webcam, or excessive lagging. Like if I move on photobooth it'll show the action 2 seconds later.
    Any way I can fix this without going to the apple store?

    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 Disk Utility to repair permissions and then
       download and apply the 10.7.2 Combo Update:
         http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1459
    • Repair permissions again immediately following the system restart
       that completes the Combo update.
    The Combo version of updates can sometimes correct
    strange problems like yours.

    Is that a known issue?

    OK, Then you may want to talk to you IT guy, or try some of the standard resets, with all peripherals disconnected.

  • Disappointed in CS6 and Adobe in general

    I am more and more disappointed in CS6 and Adobe in general.  I no longer have any respect for Adobe or their products.
    I can't read the new title editing function in Premiere CS6 (it was fine in CS5). Somebody here said you can make it bigger: No you can't. You can make the box bigger like a picture frame around the edit, but the text is still unchanged and unreadable. Soundbooth was usable as a wave editor, Audition is not. Installed on an AMD machine, Premiere Pro CS6 imports Nikon video as audio and after more than a month of playing with it Adobe's India supper support still doesn't have a clue.
    Dreamweaver CS5 Ste files won't fully import into CS3 or CS5 (it can't read the FTP user/pass), my install of Encore CS6 is missing all the menu templates and buttons so I go back to CS5, and I was totally disappointed that CS6 won't edit in 3D. The After Effects work around for 3D is a joke.
    The Master Collection download install file is just a little too large to fit a backup on any DVD. How inconvenient! The first one kept asking for "Disk 2 - English/Japan". It would be nice if they got it right before releasing it to the public.
    Finally frustrated with the idiocy of Adobe, I bought Grass Valley Edius 6.5. When I called GV for a minor issue I got an office in the USA on the second ring and a quick, correct answer. Everybody there speaks clear English. The Edius product simply works (it's been a broadcast news editoring standard for years) and I can also edit 3D.  I can actually see titles when I'm editing them. It imports any file I want correctly, including the Nikon files that Premiere CS6 can't. It has all the functions that Premiere does, including good stabilization, and a few that Premiere does not.
    And Grass Valley Edius is a product from Japan!
    Wake up Adobe, your ship is sinking fast into the Indian Sea and I'm sailing in the other direction.

    I had another adventure today. Learning from this forum that the menus and buttons missing from Encore CS6 were in a "missing items" update, I downloaded and installed the update only to find there were still no backgrounds, no buttons and only a few "menus". So I contacted Adobe Chat Support. I was put in contact with Rahul.
    I filled in form indicating that the missing files update did not contain very many missing files.
    Rahul asked what the error message was.
    I said there was no error, that Encore CS6 after installing the update still contained no backgrounds or buttons.
    Rahul asked for the serial number. I provided it.
    Then Rahul asked what the error message was.
    Rahul is not paying attention.
    3 cents per hour would be overpayed for Rahul.
    Rahul is not unlike all the others I've encounter with Adobe's outsourced support. They don't pay attention. They simply don't understand plain English. They are robots.
    Adobe is not saving anything by hiring people who act like robots and accomplish nothing. They are only alienating customers. (Double meaning on the word "alienating")
    Two other "Rahuls" wasted hours doing the same things over and over by remote into my computer trying to figure out the AVI files that came up as audio only, and they solved nothing.

  • I have a photo in an album and in camera roll. I am trying to delete the photo from the camera rol and the only option that i get is : delete everywhere?     Noooooo i just want to delete it from camera roll!!!!!

    I have the same photo in an album and in camera roll. I am trying to delete the photo from the camera rol and the only option that i get is : delete everywhere?     Noooooo i just want to delete it from camera roll!!!!!

    The way that I understand that it works, is that the photos are not copied into the new albums, instead it just points to the photos - the number of photos on the iPad in Settings > General > About doesn't increase when you create new album so I assume from that that it isn't copying the photo, just pointing to it. So if you delete the photo from the camera roll you will therefore also be deleting all the pointers to it

  • Why did my camera flash and flashlight quit working on iPod 5 I did a complete restore and still nothing only had for a week can't believe it would be broken already

    Why did my camera flash and flashlight quit working on iPod 5 I did a complete restore just to see and still nothing have only had for a week so I can't believe it would be broken already any ideas

    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

  • IPhoto library - Events - pics imported from camera, scanner and internet - it doesn't seem to matter - for a while they show OK but then when I go into the event and start scrolling some--but not all--pics disappear w/ ? small and expanded.

    iPhoto Library - events - pics imported to library from camera, scanner and internet.  Some disappear--sometimes when scrolling and other times on their own.  Some disappear when in general event and some when I try to expand the picture.  If when expanding the small pic remains.  It's really annoying.

    Are you running a "referenced" or "managed" library?
    Give this a try:
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.>Click on the Add Library button,
    2 -  select the library you want to add from those in the selection window.
    3 - make sure that in the rebuild window the checkbox  "Scavange orphaned photos" is checked.
    4 - now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    5 - in the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed. Click on the Create button.
    Note 1: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost.
    Note 2:  Your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.

  • I updated my iPhone to iOS 7.0.5 and I lost my messages and camera app and other apps i downloaded from app store. I was having the problem of losing apps since before I updated to the latest IOS. What should i do?

    I updated my iPhone to iOS 7.0.5 and I lost my messages and camera app and other apps i downloaded from app store. I was having the problem of losing apps since before I updated to the latest IOS. I have tried enable and disable restriction, connecting my phone to my laptop and sync from my computer and none of them is working. What should i do?

    Often when this type of thing occurs with missing default apps it is due to a situation where you are unable to 'see' the apps. If you will go to your front display of your device go to settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen layout.
    This reset allows for your apps that have for whatever reason been hidden in such an area as you arn't able to find them now to be returned to the area as which they were when you first had the device.
    As far as the missing Apps that were purchased through the Apps Store if you will go to settings>itunes and Apps store and click where it reads about automatcally downloading apps clicking on the toggle switch AND clicking on the toggle switch which allows for cellular data to be enabled this then will effectively automatically download all apps to your device that was purchased from the App Store.
    Good luck friend.

  • My iCloud storage is almost full.  I keep deleting pictures from my camera roll and it makes no difference on the backup storage used.  Any thoughts?

    My iCloud storage is almost full.  I keep deleting pictures from my camera roll and it makes no difference on the backup storage used.  Any thoughts?

    See if the estimated size of your camera roll in your backup options agrees with what is reported in Settings>General>Usage>Photos.  If it's significantly different, try resetting your device (hold the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release).  Then check again.

    Rene-
    Mounting of externals where you are giving the command to delete images will certainly make a difference. Don't know if that's part of your problem or not, but in general, LR doesn't always do well with the X followed by Cmd-Delete (Mac)- sometimes it will say there aren't any, and I'll just repeat and there they are. I have tended to delete after a session, so never deleted more than say 50 images at once.
    I'd continue deleting all you have so marked, then go through and hook up images with the ? mark, followed by deleting the Previews folder if the first two steps don't help. This latter is radical, but sometimes the Previews folder gets frazzled. What size .lrcat and what size Previews folder?

  • 3D Camera Tracker and Effects

    Hello Everyone.
    I have noticed when using Tracking with 3D Camera Tracker, and having effects, It dose not work well. So what we have to do when using Camera Tracker and Effects ? Maybe using a Precomp  and apply Effects, and Track ?
    Also, I used The Foundry Camera Tracker many times, and I noticed the After Effects 3D Camera Tracker did a better job.
    Off course,  I am very new to Tracking.
    Thank you very much.

    The proper workflow for most tracking is to track the original shot then use the tracking information to control something else. In the case of 3D camera tracking you apply the data to a camera and position a reference layer in the scene.
    In some cases, where there is a lack of detail or the tracked object can be better defined by the addition of things like Color Correction effects you would apply the effect, pre-compose or pre-render to a lossless DI and then track the modified shot. Generally you would not use this modified shot in your production, you just want the tracking data.
    On rare occasions there are compression artifacts or Intra Frame compression problems with the original footage that you will only get a successful track if you render the original to a lossless DI before tracking. You also need to render a DI if your original codec is not compatible with the tracker. Mocha is very sensitive to highly comprised formats and the Warp Stabilizer (a form of tracking) and AE's other trackers may also not like highly compressed originals either.
    There is also one un breakable eternal law that no one has yet found a way to circumvent. Some shots will not track with one tracker but may track with another. IOW, you may not be able to do a 3D camera Track with the Foundry's Camera Tracker, or AE's Camera Tracker but you may be able to get a successful track with Syntheyes or MOCHA Pro, or other tracker software, but some shots cannot be tracked with any software. For example, an aerial shot of the ocean from an airplane cannot be 3D camera tracked because there is no fixed geometry in the shot. A shot of a wheat field with the wheat blowing in the wind many not be able to be tracked because there is no fixed geometry in the shot, but it may be able to be stabilized if the horizon is well defined.
    If you apply any distortion effects or do masking or anything else the the shot will only track if you pre-compose but the effects may throw off the final result. If you must apply effects do them after you track the shot unless paragraph 2 applies. If your track fails and you are confident that there is enough fixed geometry in the shot to track then see paragraph 3.
