IPad mini camera won't load, what's wrong?

I click my camera button and the camera won't load. It's hard to describe, but just the lense-like black shutters show

Try resetting your iPad.  Hold the on/off and home buttons together for about 10 seconds till the Apple logo appears.
Then try the camera again.

  • Ipad mini is not charging anymore, what is wrong with it?

    i tried plugging in my ipad mini, and it doesn't charge anymore, i tried plugging it in the wall i got nothing and also my computer. Could there be something wrong with the cord?

    Most computer USB ports do not prove enough power to charge your iPad efficiently so don't bother with that.
    Use the charger that came with the iPad and plug that into a known good wall outlet. If the iPad does not charge the problem lies in one of these areas:
    1. The outlet is not supplying power
    2. The cord is not plugged in correctly at one or both ends.
    3. The cord is defective. You might try a friends cord to see if that makes a difference.
    4. The charger is defective. Try borrowing one from a friend to test that.
    5. The plug on your iPad has dirt or debris in it.
    6. There is a hardware failure in your iPad.
    For any of these items you cannot test yourself I suggest making an appointment at an Apple store to have your iPad, cable and charger looked at.

  • I have an ipad mini that won't power on. It was turned off to charge overnight. In the morning it was warm and now won't turn on no matter what I do. I've tried resetting using the power / home button combination and nothing works.

    If you have owned the device, as in purchased from Apple, less than a year then there will be no charge to repair, or most likely, replace the device. If you have had the device more than a year you will be charged an out of warranty cost for replacement ($219 I think) and that is much cheaper than a new device. If you have Applecare+ then you have an additional year of coverage and the replacement will be $49 or $79 depending on when you got the Applecare.

  • IPad mini camera pictures look like an xray

    My mother just called and said when she is taking pictures they look overtly floresent and like an xray. I am 500 miles away from her and I cant provide a picture because well I don't want the headache.
    Any idea what would cause this and in turn how to fix it?
    Tried looking this up on google but all I get is links to how the iPad mini camera takes great pictures.
    Thanks in advance.

    ipad was on invert colours no need to fix

  • My iPad mini charger works but my iPad mini refuses to charge. What do I do?

    My iPad mini charger works but my iPad mini refuses to charge. What do I do?

    Try a different cable
    Try to clean out the 30-pin/Lightning port on the device using a clean toothbrush (or similar) & blow it out. There may be dust/lint preventing proper electrical connection. The older 30-pin port is much more prone to dust & lint getting inside and it's internal conductors are very small. Clean the port out thoroughly and also the 30-pin connector on the cable.
    Don't charge using the USB ports on the PC. Most PC's USB ports do not supply enough current to properly charge your device. A USB port (or the iPhone's charger) supplies 5 watts of charging current. The iPad Air's charger supplies 12 watts of charging current. Trying to charge your iPad with your PC's USB ports or the iPhone's 5 watt charger is like trying to fill a water bucket (iPad's battery) with a little toy squirt gun (PC's USB ports or iPhone 5 watt charger).
    Instead, use the charger that came with the device and the cable that came with the device.

  • My ipad used to print to my HP B210 eprinter, now it won't. What's wrong? iPad 1

    my ipad used to print to my HP B210 eprinter, now it won't.  What's wrong?  (iPad 1)  Everything is hooked up correctly, am online, and can print fine from my wireless HP laptop.  The iPad finds the printer, but after trying to contact it, it says the printer is offline (which is isn't)
    This question was solved.

    cgtoni,
    You have been very thorough, try these steps in sequence:
    Unplug the power cord from the printer.
    Unplug the power cord from the router.
    Turn Bluetooth off on the iPad.
    Plug the router in and allow to power up fully.
    Plug the printer in and allow to power up fully.
    Try to print from the iPad.
    If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!

    Im having trouble syncing google calendar.  If I add event to my calendar using my ipad mini, it won't appear on my google calendar when Im viewing it using my computer or phone.  However, if I post an event using my phone or computer, it appears on ipad mini, why is this and how do I fix it to where everything syncs both ways?

    let me ellaborate on this part:
    "b) perhaps I've got some kind of virus on mine?"
    I mean, " perhaps I've got some kind of virus on mine, and I've passed it on to hers?"

  • My iPad mini screen is cracked. What do I do?

    My iPad mini screen is cracked.  What do I do?

    It will cost you approximately US$219.00 to US$299.00 depending on the model.
    Apple will replace the entire iPad; they don't repair.

  • My iPad mini screen won't rotate

    Why my ipad min screen won't rotate.

    If you see a lock icon in the upper right corner of the screen - then the screen orientation is locked.
    Try the side switch above the volume rocker first and see if that unlocks the screen. If that doesn't do it, swipe up from the bottom to get to the control center. Look for the lock icon in the row of icons at the top. It will be the last one on the right. Check that to see if the screen is locked.
    If the screen is unlocked but still will not rotate, reset the iPad.
    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 button

  • Just bought the new iPhone4S yesterday, and my back camera isn't working/loading up. But my front camera works fine. What's wrong? Can anyone help?

    Just bought the new iPhone4S yesterday, and my back camera isn't working/loading up. But my front camera works fine. What's wrong? Can anyone help?

    I had the same problem- go to Utilities, General, Use Side Switch To, and change it from Mute to Lock Rotation- this solved the problem for me.
    Good luck!

    Sry for disturbing, but i would to ask that how to overcome the problem of synchronising ? Itune showing me that the sync session is failed to start with my Ipad mini. Any ideas about what is going on ?

    What are you trying to sync?
    I see you are on ios 7.
    I also had upgraded my iPad Mini to ios 7 & then the 1st time I tried to open a Numbers file that was set up to sync w my MacBookPro, I got a warning that I would not be able to sync it any more w my Mac until I upgraded to Mavericks.
    So if you are trying to sync Numbers, Pages or Keynote files between your iPad mini in ios 7 and a Mac that hasn't been upgraded to Mavericks that could be the problem.
    I was very shocked to get that message since I bought Numbers on the iPad so that I could have a particular file on both devices & keep them synced. I had no clue when I upgraded to ios 7 on the iPad Mini that it would make it so the files in the iWorks apps woudln't sync any more.
    So I finally decided to go ahead & upgrade to Mavericks after carefully preparing & updating other software so that it would work w Mavericks. But I got error messages so haven't even been able to download Mavericks & now having 2nd thoughts about doing so.
