Iphone 4S takes really bad pics when using the flash. All the pics have a white haze. Is there a fix to this?

When I try and click pics in low light with my iphone 4s, the quality is really poor with a white haze on all the pics. The iphone 4 had a similar problem and I upgraded thinking they may have fixed this. We tried taking some pics on NY's eve with the iphone but the result was really poor. Switched to my wife's blackberry and got amazing results. So I guess its a software related issue. If blackberry cameras can give such amazing pics with a flash why cant iphones? Apple please fix.

@Holman - I only have a bumper on my phone, no screen protector or plastic cover but thanks for stating the obvious.
@Dave - Posting some pics here which show the white haze when taking pics in low light using flash. I know numerous other iphone 4/4S owners who have the same complaint and also the forum is full of people having similar queries so I guess mine is not a one off case.
As you can see there is a white haze in both these pics and every other pic I take in low light. Using this phone's camera in a nightclub is almost embarassing when blackberry users see the results.

HT6010 Unable to turn on wifi on my iPhone 4 after the iOS 7.03 update. Is there a fix for this?

After installing the iOS 7.0.3 update on my iPhone 4S I am unable to turn on wifi. Is there a fix for this?

Not really.
I upgraded to ios 8.0.2 and the problem goes on.
I restored it to factory settings, and started installing every app, one by one, and the Copy + Paste problem still happens.
I have an iPhone 4S 32GB

Hello Nigel.
Are you sure the Bookmarks you important are nowhere to be found? They should be stored in your bookmark manager, somewhere. To access the bookmark manager, go into ''Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks...''. Try searching there.
You can change their place from there too.

Task Scheduler - Bad login when using the correct password

Greetings,
I have been working an issue with Task Scheduler for a while now. I have done the forum rumble as well and looked at most if not all the posts to no avail. So here is my setup is on Server 2008 R2 SP1:
I have a service accounts, we are looking to automate a basic file compile of data then a file copy. Nothing fancy however it is nothing I can share. I have all unc paths in the file so there is no odd drive latter mapping going on. The BAT file executes
without issue from a cmd prompt without issue nor error.
When I put it into Task Scheduler however things do not go so well. I have checked permissions: the account is a local admin to the system, it has the right to logon as a batch and service as well as create global objects. The account
has rights to the directories explicitly applied as well as in groups it is a part of. I can execute the task when running the console as the account, I can run the task when I relax a policy for Network access: store passwords, to allow the task
to run when the users is logged in or out. However when I run the task and check don't store the password it fails with the error that it is a bad logon user name and password are incorrect.
I swapped the target account to the local Admin GROUP and it works but this is not ideal for tracking and security reasons. I created a new group and gave it rights locally as above and add the account to it but that failed.
At this point having hit just about everything I can find to include path for Start In option, Run as highest privilege, changing to UNC, and explicit permissions I am not finding a light at the end of this tunnel.
I have a feeling there is something simple or maybe it is something I am not aware of. I had read a few places of a possible corrupt store for the password cache for Task Scheduler but I did not see that anything else on it beyond mention.
Any help ANYONE can provide on this would be greatly appreciated.

As you maybe looking for an update I did find a workaround but not a solution.
I went in and disabled the local storage of password block in the local system registry. This allowed the task to store the password for the task and work. We next ran GPUPDATE to reset the change but, DID NOT change the task itself and it worked.
So what does this mean?
From my perspective, we are seeing an issue or bug where the hand off of the account information to the S4U/system is dropping the account credentials and not storing the information as needed/required to run the task with the Do Not Store setting in
place. This narrows down things tremendously and I am going to proceed back to isolated testing on this issue. Meaning I am going to take the box back to square one and move it up progressively to see if I am missing a setting here or there to allow/disallow
the use of Do not Store Password for scheduled tasks.
I am not sure there is a MSMasters program for Task Scheduler but I think I should be able to apply for it now.
As always if you have an idea for me to try PLEASE POST IT. I will give it a whirl and report back in.

3rd iPhone 5, due to purple lines when using the camera.

I am now on my 3rd iPhone 5 in a year, after a lot of hassle getting one, but that was down to Vodafone, never use them again.
My 1st 2 iPhone 5's were fine for about 5/6 months, and then when I used the camera a lot, they started getting purple lines on the screen.
The 1st time this happened it was there every time I tried to use the camera, but the 2nd time it happened it disappeared afterwards, but, as you would expect I still had it replaced.
Although the 2nd time the 'genius' at Kingston were not so helpful, and told me that it was software, and was due to me restoring from a backup from my previous iPhone, I explained that I hadn't, but they wouldn't have it, but then realized that I was telling the truth, but didn't apologize, just said, 'oh you didn't restore did you?'
My phone is now out of warranty and Apple can not guarantee it wont happen again, or what they will do if it does. and the 'genius' said to e-mail Apple, but couldn't give me an e-mail address.
I think I'll be returning to android when my upgrade is next due.
Who else has had this issue?
And what did Apple do? Did they help you?
Why do Apple have no e-mail address for customers, or even an actual address!
It seems unbelievable!

I have the same issue - perhaps not exact but extremely similar. In photo mode, there is a small purplish speck, which I initially thought as dust or something, and of course it ends of in photos taken. However, this speck is not present in video mode, meaning there is no dust, but some sort of artifact on the photo processor or something. Either way, itsa product defect - I plan on seeing if Apple will support this and replace thephone.....

Mail 5.3 is deleting multiple messages when I click the trash button only once! Is there a fix for this bug?

Hi,
Any help appreciated! I recently ungraded to OSX 10.7.5 (Lion) and ever since, I am having trouble with my mail that I did not have before. When I am going through messages and I use the trash button, it sometimes deletes multiple messages that I have not even opened or read yet. I only click the button once. Any ideas how to correct this?
Thank you!

Thank you. I figured it out right before I heard from you. Running the OCR before the redaction made it work correctly.
Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my question.
Make it a great day.

You can try to use "Forget About This Site" in the History (right-click context menu in Library or sidebar) to remove all data from a website including possible exceptions.

When I use Quicktime on my iphone 4S, it stops playing when screen locks now that I updated to iOS 7. Is there a fix for this?

I am utilizing a radio station app while doing this. It used to work before the upgrade. I could listen all day long, but know when the screen locks or when I hit the home button the station stops.

You'll need to check on the web portal for the email provider as to whether they use POP, IMAP or both.
If you are using POP, that protocol isn't designed for access from more than one device.
The default behaviour for POP is to delete the messages from the server once the email has been downloaded to a PC. IMAP stores everything on the server and the client just caches a copy.

Every time I open Firefox 8.01, on my WinXP laptop, the "bookmarks" toolbar disappears but the checkmark in the view/toolbars menu is still checked when I reopen it, just no bookmarks toolbar showing on screen, Is There A Fix For This?

I've tried everything including reinstalling Firefox. It began after a new WinXP update. If I go into the view file and uncheck, then check the bookmarks toolbar it shows up and functions fine but to have to do this every time I open the browser is annoying and it just started happening

Hi,
The "Tools" are in the old drop down menu, which are not shown by default in the new Firefox Design. To show this menu:
Firefox Menu > Customize
On the bottom left there will be Show/Hide Toolbars. The Menu will be listed here.

Probably a few people have had this issue. But that's irrlevant. What you need to do is perform a restore.

Significant delay when using the "tap to click" trackpad function

(I accidently post this in the wrong forum -- for the old MBP -- so this is a repost)
Hello everyone! I bought a 2.4 Ghz unibody MBP like 3 weeks ago. I had an issue and they replaced the computer with a new one at the store. Today is the first day of using the new laptop. They switched out the ram upgrade and the hard drive.
The issue seems to be that when using the tap to click function on the trackpad, there is a relatively significant delay (at least for a click). With the regular mouse button the delay isn't there. Such as if I'm clicking on the finder or the file tab, there's a bit of a delay before they pop up, compared to instantaniously with the mouse button. When using the trackpad for regular types of tasks, there is a bit of a delay sometimes too. Such as I'll be moving the mouse across the screen and it will stop.
Please help me out. If I could solve it without going back to the Apple store that would be great. Thanks everyone in advance.

Update: I think the 1/2 second delay is too long of an estimate, but the delay is significant enough to make me notice something has to be wrong. My previous MBP had no delay.
When moving the mouse around, I'm not sure if it's a MBP issue, but occasionally the mouse seems to "get stuck" on the screen and I have to begin moving my finger again on the trackpad. This happened on the first MBP too.

When using the iphone 6 Plus. I use iMessage it is terribly slow to attach photo or take a photo the app does not show camera and slow... like 2 mins at least.

When using the iphone 6 Plus. I use iMessage and then attach a photo or take a photo... the app does not show the camera fully or even to attach a photo does not work. I have about 8-9000 phones and like 10 short videos in there but it is incredibly slow and almost unable. I have the 128GB iPhone 6 Plus with 46 gb still available. I think this should not be so slow with so much memory still available. Please help. I am using 8.1.2. Yes I have set up the phone as a new phone. Apple store even reformatted this iphone 6 plus 2 months ago but it is still terribly slow Thanks

Hey Bender1031,
Thanks for the question, I can definitely understand how frustrating this issue may be with a brand new phone. Great troubleshooting so far by already attempting a restart and reset. If the issue persists, let’s try restoring your device and updating to the latest software (iOS 8.0.2):
Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
After erasing and setting up as a new device, your device is now in a factory configuration. Test to determine if erasing and setting up as a new device resolved the issue. Content on the device may have caused unexpected behavior.
- If the issue is still present, you may want to contact Apple Support.
- If the issue is now resolved, sync one type of content at a time back to the device. For example, if you had an issue playing music, add songs from iTunes and confirm they will play. If your contacts weren't loading successfully, add the contacts back. After each sync, test to see if the issue has returned.
Thanks,
Matt M.

My iphone 5 has bad audio qualities when using the telephone properties: what solution was offered by apple or provider?

I have a new iphone 5 that has a very bad audio quality when using the basic telephone function. Both wen called or calling the conversation is either of quite poor quality or drops awau alltogether. The latter happens sometimes 5 times on a row during one conversation or better attempt to have one..:)
Who has similar problems and what has been the solution offered by apple or their provider?

I have the same issue with the following setup:
Garmin 2597LMT
iPhone 5
Motorola T605 bluetooth hardsfree system
I ended up disabling the nuvi bluetooth -- I don't subscribe to any smartlink services -- so I'll guess i'll go without Weather on the nuvi for now.

Is anyone able to explain really poor performance when using 'If Exists'?

Hello all. We've recently had a performance spike when using the 'if exists' construct, which is a construct that we use through much of our code. The problem is, it appears illogical since if can be removed via a tiny modification that does
not change the core code.
I can demonstrate
This is the (simplified) format of the base original code. It's purpose is to identify when a column value has changed comparing to a main table and a complex view
select 1 from MainTable m
inner join ComplexView v on m.col2 = v.col2
where m.col3 <> v.col3
This is doing a table scan, however the table only has 17000 rows while the view only has 7000 rows. The sql executes in approximately 3 seconds.
However if we add the 'If Exists' construct around the original query, like such:
if exists (
select 1 from MainTable m
inner join ComplexView v on m.col2 = v.col2
where m.col3 <> v.col3
print 1
The sql now takes over 2 minutes to run. Note that the core sql is unchanged. All I have done is wrap it with 'If Exists'
I can't fathom why the if exists construct is taking so much longer, especially since the code code is unchanged, however more importantly I would like to understand why since we commonly use this type of syntax.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated

OK, that's interesting. Adding the top 1 clause greatly affects the performance (in a bad way).
The original query (as below) still runs in a few seconds.
select 1 from MainTable m
inner join ComplexView v on m.col2 = v.col2
where m.col3 <> v.col3
The 'Top 1' query (as below) takes almost 2 minutes however. It's exactly the same query, but with 'top 1' added to it.
select top 1 1 from MainTable m
inner join ComplexView v on m.col2 = v.col2
where m.col3 <> v.col3
I suspect that the top 1 is performing a very similar operation to the exists, in that it is 'supposed' to exit as soon as it finds a single row that satisfies it's results.
It's still not really any closer to making me understand what is causing the issue however.
