IPad camera problems
I have a brand new iPad, I can take pictures with my camera but for some reason it won't switch to video. How do I take video? I shut down all my apps and did a restart by holding the home button and the top button together. Nothing seems to be working.
Wow! Thank you so much!
I didn't know that. I was just pushing the video words.
:) I have a lot to learn.

Is there a solution to iPad camera problems with iOS7? Specifically, switching from back camera to front camera.
First, try a reset: hold down the home button along with the power button until you see the Apple, then let go.

IPad camera -problems with still shot, very grainy images indoors or atnight
Hello, I have the ipad 2 and am experiencing problems with the still camera shots (using the built in rear camera). The images are very grainy to such an extent that th ipad camera images are unusable when taken indoors (under full light), in early evening (under partial light) or at night (under normal indoor night lighting). I can not see any camera settings so not sure if this is a camera problem with my ipad2 or a more general problem with ipad 2 camera images. Any suggestions welcome as It means my iPad2 camera is effectively unusable
The cameras on the iPad won't produce the quality of photo that you'd get from a compact digital camera, and when the light isn't good there will be a noticeable graining. The cameras on the iPad are mainly for things such as FaceTime or for use in good light conditions - otherwise you'll get better results with a digital compact, or even something like an iPhone 4.

When I select the camera on my ipad, the apple icon comes up like it's restarting and nothing happens.
Hello cjgallag
The first thing I would do is to Reset All Settings by going to Settings > General > Reset and the test. If it is not resolved then you will want to restore the device. The article below will assist with that process.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Hold Sleep and Home buttons until the iPad restarts, so the message won't appear after restarting it -
I have a problem with my ipad 2 camera quality . My ipad cam is very-2 bad quality and not clear ... Hope u can help me ..
The iPad 2 cameras are not very high resolution:
Back camera: 960 x 720 pixels (0.7Mp), Video recording, HD (720p) up to 30 frames per second with audio; still camera with 5x digital zoom
Front camera: 640 x 480 pixels (0.3Mp), Video recording, VGA up to 30 frames per second with audio; VGA‑quality still camera, face detection
If you take photos in poor light the quality will be even worse. -

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:

If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Why does Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit no longer work with iOS8
Why does Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit no longer work with iOS8?
The kit is firmly inserted in thhe iPad's dock ? You could also try a reset and see if it's recognised after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
I haven't had problems using the kit with SD cards from Canon cameras . What capacity is the card, and it's an SD or SDHC card - if it's an SDXC card that's formatted as ExFAT then it won't be recognised -
IPad Camera Connection Kit doesn't work
Some time ago I ordered from the Apple Store an iPad Camera Connection Kit.
This morning, when testing it, the following happens :
- SD card reader : when testing the SD card reader with the card from our camera, the message below is displayed :
"Contents not available
Cannot read the connected storage media"
Strange, as the camera has taken hundreds of pictures, and when checking the card on my MBA I can access the card's subfolders without any problem.
- USB camera connector :This works well (with the same card as mentioned above plugged into the camera).
Does anyone have experience with the SD card reader ?
Thanks.
Note : in the iPad Camera Connection Kit documentation, reference is made to the iPad user guide. However, that user guide, a circular reference is made to the connection kit documentation.Is the SD card one that was formatted by your camera? In order for the CCK to read the card, all the photos need to be in a directory name DCIM and they need to have 8-character file names. This is the way digital cameras generally format things. However, if you put the photos on the card yourself, you might have done it differently.
I use the SD card reader quite a bit as it's easier for me than keeping track of yet another cable. Once or twice, my iPad didn't see it. A reset of the iPad fixed that. Press and hold the Home button and the power button until the silver apple appears. -
I have a Nikon Coolpix P500 but am unable to download photos from it to my iPad2 via the iPad Camera Connection kit. The iPad does not see either the Sandisk 8GB card or the Nikon camera. I have turned the camera on, but it seems that the camera just want to recharge its battery through the iPad as the iPad states that the devices draws too much power?? Anybodu solved this problem yet? Advise please?
One thing to check is the format that the camera is saving pics to the card in. Many are selectable and, in most cases, if PTP is one of the options then you need to have that one selected for the files to be visible to iOS and the CCK (connection kit).
Another thing which sometimes comes up, especially with older cameras and therefore probably not with yours, is the filenaming conventions used by the camera. iOS is quite strict about what it expects to see and if files are being stored with unsupported name formats then they simply won't be seen at all. -
RAW picture previews loading extremely slow since IOS 8 using the Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit
Hi all
First, sorry for my poor english, I hope you understand my problem.
Device is iPad Air Wi-Fi with IOS 8.
I just realized this issue yesterday. I wanted to import some of my RAW pictures from my Nikon camera's SD card, using the Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit. In the Photos app / Import tab, the RAW picture previews show extremely slow. It takes a second to show each photo preview before import. A second for every single picture preview
For example, if you have 500 pictures on your SD card, and you want to import pictures from this card but just some selected, then you need to wait for an overview preview a lot of minutes. On IOS 7 this process was maybe 10 seconds for all of the pictures...Same problem here. As a professional wedding photographer, sifting through my photos while on the go is the reason for me purchasing the iPad (Retina) 2 years ago, I now have an $800 paperweight after iOS8.x.x. Apple, if you actually read these, please inform your engineers to fix this in the next update or at least provide us with a solution to return to iOS7.x.x. Makes me wonder if there is any QA or testing that goes on before an update is released. As an FYI, here's my thread from a few weeks ago: Native Photos App, Slow... No, I mean really slow.

Why can I not load pictures from a micro SD 64gb using scan disk adapter plugged into an Apple iPad camera connection kit. I have the iPhoto app but pictures not being seen on iPad. So incredibly frustrating. Apple please fix this.
Do you have a smaller capacity micro SD card to try? I seem to remember from past posts that users were having problems with cards larger than 32GB, however, Apple's page doesn't mention this.

I had no problem importing photos to my iPad using the iPad camera connection kit, but now that they are there, I can not get them back off of my iPad. I have set up an iCloud account and enabled Photo Stream on my iPad, downloaded and installed the iCLoud control pannel for Windows, enabled Photo Stream there, and set the download and upload folders. In my "Photos" on iPad I curently have 3 albums: Camera Roll, All Imported, and a sigle folder with some of the photos included in the "All Imported" folder. If I select Photo Stream, there are no photos present, and the note at the bottom explains that it uploads and stores the last 30 days of photos on iCloud and downloads them to all my devides... except.. I just enabled iCloud, and the pix were imported 6 months ago. I really see no logical way of getting them back off this device. Can anyone help highlight what I have overlooked? Thanks. -njw
Never mind... when all else fails... use a cable. D'Ohhh...

Help! Photos stuck in iPad camera roll
Ok so I have seen other discussions but I believe my case is different.
Here are the facts:
It's an iPad 3, latest software, using photostream, NOT syncing photos in the iTunes settings.
Pretty much every photo I have ever taken with my iPhone or imported into iPhoto has synced into my iPad camera roll, as well as the photostream.
In addition, albums on my iPhone have synced and even random albums with 1 photo in them have appeared on my iPad.
I cannot delete these photos or albums becasue it says "you cannot delete photos imported from another device" or something like that.
It's driving me nuts because my camera roll is a mess and I cannot organize it by moving or deleting the photos.
I'll say again, these photos are not just in my photostream. They have imported themselves into the camera roll and albums and cannot be deleted.
Info and links are appreciated.Ok, so I went back into iTunes and clicked sync (becasue it was unclicked), then unclicked it again and clicked apply. It told me that it would delete all the synced photos so I clicked "ok" and continued.
No such luck, the photos remain.
Maybe I can clarify a few things. By camera roll I actually meant "Photos".
For example, when you open the photo app on the iPad, there are tabs at the top labeled "Photos", "Photostream", "Albums", etc.
The photos in question that cannot be deleted or moved are in the "Photos" section.
I have used a camera conenction kit once but that was last month and this problem existed long before.
UPDATE:
A little background first. In Photos, under the Photos tab, I click "Edit" and click photos until I select a photo that I CAN delete as well as a photo I CANNOT delete. I click "Delete (1)" and the following message appears:
"Only items direclty imported to iPad can be deleted"
-End-
Hope this info helps -
Apple iPad Camera Connector query
for starters i have a Sony Digital Still Camera so the Apple card reader wont be any good for that.
Although i do have a perfectly good USB Card reader that can cope with every memory card that was ever made, so copying from Sony Memory Card to SD card isnt a problem.
However my question is this :- if i can put my photos for the iPad2 into my PC iTunes Program why do i need the Apple iPad Camera Connector ?.
On the other hand, wouldn't it sometimes be easier/quicker to put MUSIC onto a SD Memory Card (instead of into iTunes), so why cant i transfer Music to the iPad2 using this Memory Card reader, or perhaps i can but it isnt documented ?.
Does this Memory card reader fit onto iPad1 as well ?.
i think i will have to give it a rest asking all these questions, and perhaps patiently wait until we actually have one of these iPad2 gadgets in our grubby little hands.
timHey Tim
Yep the cam connector is really only for transferring photos. To be honest I wouldn't spend money on this UNTIL you find a real need. If you are just a casual photographer then you will find it just as easy to store photos on your cameras storage card until you get back home, and then transfer them to your iPad via iTunes. Some more serious or professional photographers want to back up photos via iPad before they get home in case of loss etc. Or to display to clients.
Don't worry about asking lots of questions - the better prepared you are the more you will enjoy your iPad, plus it adds to the excitement
PS the kit does have a few extra uses that might just interest you if it's your thing
