IPhone 4S Camera not working at all since last update

Please Help!!! I use my iPhone camera as my primary camera and so does my wife. We are both having the exact same problem. No matter which way we try to use our cameras, whether through text messaging or directly from the camera app, when the camera starts up the screen is black. I try to kill the app and then restart it and on restart it appears to be fine, but when i click the shutter button to capture the pic the app crashes and takes me back to my home screen.
I've tried restarting my phone and nothing works. Please fix this bug or tell me what to do!
HELP!!!

Please fix this bug
This is a user-to-user tech support site.  Your problem is not a "bug" - it's in your phone.
Try basic troubleshooting steps as needed:
1. Double click the home button to show the recently opened apps.  Slide the preview screen of the Camera app up to close it.
2. Reset phone (no data loss): press both the home and power buttons for at least 10 seconds, releasing when the Apple logo appears.
3. Restore the iOS using iTunes, also restoring a backup
4. Restore the iOS as new, without using a backup
5. If restoring as new doesn't help, there is a hardware failure that requires evaluation by Apple or an Apple authorized service center

  • Sync does not work at all since last update.  This is ********.

    Pretty self-explanatory.  I had to perform a full restore after the last software update failed to install properly, as usual.  Now when I try to sync it gets stuck on the last step and nothing gets copied.  I better not have to do another restore just for this.  Clearly numerous people are having this same problem.  Get it together.
    P.S.  Censorship is b ull$h!t.

    Do you really have OS X 10.4.1 as listed in your profile? The iPad requires 10.5.8 or later to sync. You can install either a retail version of 10.5 or 10.6 directly over 10.4 to upgrade.

    Basic troubleshooting steps outline in the manual are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new.  Try each of these in order until the problem is resolved.  If you've been through all these steps and the trouble persists, you'll need to bring your phone to Apple for evaluation.  Be sure to make an appointment first at the Genius Bar so you won't have a long wait.

  • It came to my attention there a new program working with itune since last update named Apsdaemon.exe its been using 99% of my processor when its active any idea why so much and will it be fix eventually? And why is it so Heavy consuming ?

    It came to my attention there a new program working with itune since last update named Apsdaemon.exe its been using 99% of my processus when its active.
    Any idea why so much and will it be fix eventually because before last update i never encounter any issue using Itune? Now when that aplication or extention from Itune is working my computor froze to a huge alt. I play video games online and love listening to my music with itune playing in the background and normally was able to have firefox open and a program called ventrillo all working at the same time and now i can barelly have itune and play a game. As soon it start been choppy i just control alt delete wait 5 minute to close down apsdaemon.exe when i'm capable most of the time i have to restart my computor. And why is it so Heavy consuming on the process its memory utility is under the 100ko i believe so why 99% of my processus is been use ?
    a good exemple i could give is itune.exe working it shows process 02% for 123 000ko that is light and perfect.

    Wow, Karan Taneja, you've just embarrassed yourself on a worldwide support forum.  Not only is your post ridiculous and completely inappropriate for a technical support forum, but it also shows your ignorance as to whom you think the audience is.  Apple is not here.  It's users, like you. 
    If you would have spent half the time actually reading the Terms of Use of this forum that YOU agreed to by signing up to post, as you did composing that usesless, inappropriate post, you (and the rest of us on this forum) would have been much better off.

    Hi Hellside,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like there is an issue with the camera on your iPad. The article linked below has a lot of great troubleshooting suggestions for a similar issue on an iPhone but the suggestions should resolve the issue with your iPad too.
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
    If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
    If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
    Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
    Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
    Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
    Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
    Try to remain steady while focusing:
    Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
    Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
    Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
    Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
    If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
    Issue not resolved
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.
    I hope this helps.

  • Apple password not working in iCloud since I updates my email address. Still lists my old email but doesn't accept old password. How do I access?

    Apple password not working in iCloud since I updates my email address. Still lists my old email but doesn't accept old password. How do I access the cloud?

    To change the iCloud ID ("email") you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  When you do this you may find that the password for your old ID isn't accepted.  If this should happen, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, you need to temporarily recreate your old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • Firefox does not open at all since I updated to version 3.6.4, not even when I re-download it.

    Firefox crashes (does not open at all) since I updated to version 3.6.4. Not even when I re-downloaded it several times. Now, even the old version doesn't start. I have a Mac OS X version 10.6.4. It doesn't show that pop up window that explains why it crashed. It just stops and quits.

    Hello everyone.
    Hopefully this support article is what you need:
    https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox+will+not+start
    In any case, you may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
    If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

  • My song/ album-mixed up, missing contacts, wants verify my email passwords...all since last update...help

    My song and album covers are mixed up, I am also missing tons of my contacts, my phone shutdown on it's own yesterday and it's been repeatedly asked me to verify my email passwords...all since last update...help

    I have the same problems with emails and it has possibly cost me business. I deleted a load that I thought were from Facebook before noticing that the subjects were not always matching the content. I have since found out that emails were sent to me regarding some freelance work and as I did not reply they have gone elsewhere that I must have deleted because the subject said they were from Facebook.
    it is still happening with emails received today.

  • Does any one know what is wrong with my iphone 4 camera not working?

    when I use my Iphone and want to take a picture I cant because often times my camera on the back doent work and when it does I cant get the selfie camera to work at all. I like using my camera on my phone I am an avid camera user because I am a part time photographer. But I cant use it at all I have done all the resets there are available I have put it in DFU mode and erased everything and hoped that this worked but not relief. I did this only 8 times and still doenst work does anybody out there have this same problem and think it may be hardware related because I am about to have someone (apple ccertified) open it up to see if it is the camera ribbon cable that might be loose. Is anyone else upset with this issue if they have it? I know I am.

    Hi EMT-B,
    It sounds like you have done all the troubleshooting needed to narrow down your issue with the iPhone camera to hardware. Based on the information you have provided, it appears your iPhone needs to be serviced. The following link should help you get started with the process and has links with additional information on topics such as warranty and service pricing, battery replacement, and express replacement service.

  • IPhone 5 camera not working after iOS7.2

    after updating my phone to the 2nd iOS7, a week or so later my camera has completely stopped working. After looking all over these discussion pages I've tried EVERYTHING except erasing the phone & restoring it. other than that, NOHTING has worked!!! I've read where this is a "hardware" issue? I don't know for sure. My flashlight is also not working at all!! I want to take it to the iPhone store, but my screen has 2 small cracks at the top. taking it "out of warranty" so I have read. and that it will be aroud $230 for a new one, cheaper than what I have paid, YES! but... is that a set price?? or do they have certain prices for certain damages? I just need some answers!!!!

    I had the same problem it's definitely a software issue because the camera would sometimes work in camera apps but now I could not switch cameras at all.
    I may have found a solution of course I probably won't get credit for thanks to Apple.
    I believe the problem arises from a bug when the camera is used in lock mode, try restarting your phone with the home and power button. Then open your camera in locked mode and set the flash to auto. Maybe take a few pictures, switch the camera back and fourth, turn HDR on and off, but make sure the flash is set to auto before you unlock the phone. Heck even try playing with the flashlight.
    After I did this in locked mode to my surprise my camera and flashlight are now fully functional after I have unlocked it with the password. I'm not to sure what triggered this bug but when I first got iOS 7 and played with my phone some how I unlocked the lock screen without putting in a password. Just by using the camera and the notification and control Center, I unlocked the phone which might of triggered the bug.

    Iphone 5 main camera not working on iphone 5. Many folks comment on apple replacing phone.  Mine is older than 12 months.  Will they still replace phone?

    No. You can get an out of warranty replacement or buy a new phone. A an out if warranty replacement will be cheaper than buying a new one.

  • TS4436 iphone 5 camera not working

    iphone 5 camera just wont open shutter

    Had the exact same problem with my iphone 5.  Took it to Genius bar and was told that it was due to a camera software bug, not a hardware problem.
    The phone had to be reset, restored, and configured as a NEW PHONE.  The camera function came back and is now working.  The key thing they said is NOT to restore from a backup since it will just copy the bad software which will cause the problem to come back.  Once configured as a new phone, just sync your apps and backed up data.  The only item that you'll loose is your text messages.  Those will be forever gone.
    Hope this helps since it took me 3 days to get this resolved.
