IPad Air - Front Camera in Camera App

Hi,
I just purchased the IPad Air as an upgrade from orginal IPad.
I have a question regarding the front facing camera when in the camerqa application. If you switch to the front camera in the app, you will notice the 'toolbar' remains on the same side of the actual front camera, weather you are in horzantal or vertical mode. The toolbar sits on the same side of the camera; thus when you go to take a picture your hand goes over the camera. Why is this??? and Can it not be changed?
Obviously, you could awarkwardly use your other hand but then it covers the screen.
The orginal Ipad didn't do this.. So why does the NEW model do it? Any help?
Thanks,

Thanks for the replies !!
I have flipped the ipad into all directions and for me the 'shutter' toolbar always remains on the same side of the camera. Nothing is rotating etc. The camera is on the right and the toolbar is on the right.
@ JimHdk - I meant Ipad 2 sorry.

  • IPad 2 front and back camera is not work after update iOS 7.0.4 it gives like the resolution is not adjusted

    After updating my ipad 2 to iOS 7.0.4 , front and back camera is not working it gives like very small dots or dash. I did restore from iTunes and reset by holding on the home and sleep button, I also tried to close the app from the task bar but still all trials didn't solve the problem.

    I haven't heard of this before so I doubt it's a bug. Probably something happened during the 7.04 download.
    Backup your iPhone to iTunes and restore it as a new iphone, then restore from the backup. This will give you a fresh copy of iOS 7.04.

  • My ipad air keeps restarting and closing apps plus it wont connect to itunes when i want to do a full restore

    i have just bought a ipad air 2 weeks ago from a tmobile store and the day i got it, it started turning off which i though was normal since it was the first day and my second device so i had it the first week went by and it continued to happen after that it got more serious and i got made i took it back to tmobile they said to take it to apple and i did inboca raton the people there are nice but what ever they did only stoped it from happening for a while i came back the same week a day later saying i contined to happen and they said did u delete the apps and i told the person i had no apps on thier he/she was supprised and said if he could run a web search and a dianositcs report i said sure he didnt find anything wrong but it turning off on the apps i also know that the device (ipad air) should have a good amount of memmory and that the main reason it turns off is because it has a 64 bit prossessor with a 1GB Ram so i turns off but their is a way to make it work fluentlly without turning off you have to connect it to iyunes on a PC or MAC and restore your device so that it repairs itself after that u have to manually redownlaod all the apps again and not use icloud to back up when u are done redownlaoding then u have to backup and then hopefully it will work fine but i cant connect to itunes so i later retuned that same day trying that and told him/her that it didnt work and the idea that i tried and he/she said that he can replace it if i brought the box so i said no i didnt bring it please fin a solution so i can connect to itunes its only 2 weeks old and i dont want a new one so fast

    When my phone crashed for the first time I noticed that the ios update 6 was on my phone and i updated it at that moment... it still continues to not work... i now have a grey screen saying activation request could not be completed. if problem persists contact customer care.  I cannot get to the home screen or any of my settings.   I have been trying to contact but i think i was to late and to early this morning to reach anyone. 
    When i connect my ipnone to itunes there is no music, no apps, no photos, no updates or any thing that I can see..... it says that softwware version 5.1... does that mean that my phone did not update ios 6?
    I can't get to any options or different screens on my phone either, just the grey screen i spoke about before.....
    you spoke of downloading from apple directly does that mean on my iphone or my computer? 
    thanks:)

  • I have a new iPad Air and in using the App Store, it seems frozen with an app that I didn't want.   I cannot look at other apps in the store or anything.  How do I unfreeze it?  Something equivalent to Control Alt Delete with Window.

    I have an iPad Air just acquired yesterday.   The App Store seems to be frozen and I have on idea how to undo it.  It is as if i clicked on an app to download and it came up but it is frozen.  I cannot get rid of it or go to anything else in the App Store.   I tried downloading that app and opening it - didn't help.  Guess what I am looking for is the equivalent of Control +Alt+Delete in Windows.  Thanks.

    Double tap your home button and open apps will appear above as smaller screen shots.  With your finger swipe the open app upwards and it will fully close.
    The cntrl/alt/delete option on an iPad is a reboot and to do so, press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time for about 10 seconds until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will restart.

  • My iPad Air won't download any apps or app updates.

    Okay, so my iPad Air has not been downloading any apps, when I tap update it brings the download icon up but does nothing. I stop it then start it again and the loading icon just spins constantly. It's sorta the same thing when I download an app or anything else. my wifi is fine and I can connect to the internet with safari or any of my apps, I even tried it from a friends network and it did the same thing.
    A List of things I have tried:
    1. Turn off/on IPad
    2. Reset iPad, (holding lock and home for 15 seconds)
    3.  Reset network settings
    4. Reset all settings
    5. updated iPad to iOS 8.1.2
    6. signed out of iTunes threw settings>iTunes and App Store>Apple id> sign out, then restarted the iPad and signed back in
    7. Downloading things from a different and working wifi connection
    none of that has fixed it, I seriously do not want to back up and restore if at all possible because 1 it's such a hassle and 2 I have such bad luck with backups, last time I did a backup and restored from it I lost the app data for 5 of my apps 3 of them being games I loved playing (infinity blade 3, gangster vegas, modern combat 4) because no matter what I did or how many times I restored from the backup those apps would not sync over to the iPad. I had read something that I should check the Downloads tab in the ITunes store to make sure there were no downloads stuck preventing other things from downloading, but recently I noticed the download tab is no longer an option on my bar in iTunes and no icon for it in edit. same with my iPhone 6. (why would Apple remove something like that?) I searched every inch of the iTunes store and even in view your apple ID i can't find the download queue anywhere.
    Am I overlooking the download queue? Did they remove it from iOS 8? Anything else I can try besides restoring? X.x this has been going on for to long now and I just got a Jot Touch for my iPad and wanted to download some apps i could use it with but I can't because of this, I'm also missing out on holiday stuff and new games :/ If anyone can help me with this I would love you forever.

    Yeah, I know I can restore it, but I might as well go ahead and try. I just finished a backup for icloud and itunes to make sure, I'll go ahead and restore it and set it up as new and see how that works. Seems like I have no other options at this point, I'd still like to know what they did with the Download tab in itunes store, if they removed it or if I'm just overlooking it.

  • Why wont my ipad air let me download any apps or get rid of some that i dont want? it all started after i updated it

  • HT201269 I am trying to transfers my iPad 2 apps to me new iPad Air, but some of the apps did not back up on the computer.  Every time I go to back up the old device, some of the apps don't get transferred.  My big concern is the Olive Tree Bible Study wo

    I have the Olive Tree Bible Study app, which is one of the best tools I have ever used for study and within the app I purchased several resources/concordances that are very useful (plus they had up in the wallet, but very worth it)
    I had it on my iPad 2 and when I went to back it up on my iMac, the app doesn't populate in the apps tab.  This also applies to some of my games but I'm not that worried about losing those.
    I am trying to get those particular apps on my iPad Air.
    Has anyone else come across an issue like this?
    Thanks and I appreciate anyone's time.

    Go into the App Store from your iPad and select Purchased, then select Not onThis iPad, and download the apps that you want.  Because you already own them you can download them again for free ... provided that you are using the same Apple ID as you used when you originally purchased them.
    In fact when I look up the Olive Tree app, it seems like the main app is free in any case.
    Once you are in the app look for some option to restore purchases.
