Iphone 5c camera stucked/Hanged

All of a sudden my Iphone camera hanged/stuck like I can't take picture nor i can view.......pls advice

Hi stfromthimphu,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you're not able to take pictures with the Camera app on your iPhone 5c.
I recommend starting with these tips to troubleshoot the issue:
If you see a closed lens or black screen when you open the Camera app, try these steps:
Make sure that there’s nothing blocking the camera lens. If you’re using a case, try removing it.
Force the app to close, then open the Camera app again.
Restart your device, then open the Camera app again.
If your device has a front and rear camera, try both cameras by tapping the camera swap icon .
If you see the closed lens or black screen on only one camera, take your device to an Apple Retail Store or Authorized Service Provider for more help.

  • Iphone 4S camera stuck

    I bought my Iphone 4S a few weeks ago and until the date I'm pleased. But now I'm discovering a new little problem.Sometimes, when I'm going to take a picture and it identifies the objects and people, the camera gets stuck and it does not shoot in the moment I press the bottom but 2-3 min after. What's the problem with this?
    Thanks!

    2-3 "minutes" or seconds???
    Reset the phone (no data loss): Press both the home and on/off buttons until the Apple logo appears.

  • IPhone 5 Camera stuck in Macro mode

    The camera on the back of the phone suddenly stopped working. When I open the app the picture is in focus for about a second then everything is blurry except when I hold the phone close to an object. I have restarted the phone and reset it but it is still not working. I've tried other photo apps and they don't seem to be working either... I've only had the phone for about 2 and a half months.  I have no idea what is going on.

    Try a Restore of the iPhone with current iTunes on your computer. See if fixed. If still problem, make Genius reservation or set up Service and take or send to Apple for resolution under Warranty.

  • Iphone 4 camera stuck

    I dropped my iPhone 4 but it is in a case which must have protected it so everything still works except the camera.  The camera app loads but either the shutter remains closed or opens but all you see is a blank screen.  In another forum, they suggested that the iPhone should be re-set to factory settings with the latest software which I did but no change.  Is there anything else I can do or is it permanently damaged?  I guess I either have to do without a camera or pay for what I would imagine be an expensive repair with Apple

    Hi Everyone,
    I have recently updated my iphone 4s to IOS 5.1. I now have the camera button on the lock screen, but it doesan't work. I still have to unlock the phone to use it. When I touch the camera icon, the screen judders, but fails to go into camera mode.
    Any ideas, and has anyone in the UK had sinilar issues? I would be grateful for any suggestions.

  • Aperture hangs on import from iPhone or camera

    Since a few weeks I can't import from my iPhone or digital camera anymore.
    If I try to import Photos from my iPhone or camera Aperture hangs forever. The Photos should be imported as referenced ones to a folder on a network share on a Mac OS X Server. This works fine, if the Picture source is i.e. a memory card or a HDD. And it has been working with the iPohne and camera before.
    What happens is, that Aperture creates a file like "..importing.IMG0815.JPG" with 0 Bytes in the target folder. And than it hangs.
    From this point on there is a permanent network traffic, and reasonable CPU load on both Macs (the kernel_task on the client and the AppleFileServer task on the Server). If I delete the "..importing.IMG0815.JPG" file it is instantly recreated. This continues even if I kill the Aperture application. The only way to stop this is to unmount the Network Volume.
    Does anyone has an idea what this may cause?

    Aperture, Lightroom etc. are all designed to make use of direct import. They are safer than copying your files via the OS tools for the simple reason they access the cards read-only. If you use OS tools to copy then you are accessing the cards read-write which is far more dangerous if something goes wrong.
    Culling your images during import saves time and disk space also. Copying your images directly and then importing is a WASTE OF YOUR TIME.
    We disagree. Although such apps are indeed "designed" for direct import, my empirical observations since the earliest days of digital imagery have been that interacting indirectly using an app like Aperture is much, much less stable than directly interacting via Finder when properly done. One can peruse literally hundreds of digital image threads including this one to see overwhelming real-world evidence of what I am talking about.

  • I am frequently experiencing Iphone 5 camera issues, while taking photos all of the sudden the camera going to hang mode

    Hi,
    Greetings !!!
    I would like to know what is the root cause of Iphone camera hanging ?
    I am very frequently experiencing Iphone 5 camera issues like while taking photos all of the sudden the camera going to hang mode with full of pink & black line.
    I noticed while camera app turns ON the phone going to hand.
    I went to apple services server with this problem & they said they didn't see any errors.
    Kindly response with my request, and provide me the solution.
    Thannks & regards,

    That often happens with cameras when you take pictures of a computer screen. LCD screens "flicker" and the camera will often catch the flicker.

    Try resetting it: hold the on/off and home buttons until you see the Apple logo (ignoring the off slider that appears first), and release.  If that doesn't work, connect to iTunes, go to the Summary tab and Restore.

  • Iphone 3g camera sutter stucks

    iphone 3g camera sutter stucks. i have tried reset all setting, open camera for 1 hrs, hard slide option but nothing worked. may someone get me out of this problem?

    Hi,
    If you have a protective case or film on the iPhone, try testing without it.
    Also try restarting the iPhone by holding the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears> then slide to turn off> and turn the iPhone back on by pressing the Sleep/Wake again, as described on page 34 of the iPhone User Guide.
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/iPhoneUserGuide.pdf
    You can also try restoring the iPhone, to rule out issues with the software on the iPhone. This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414 will walk you through restoring the iPhone.
    If the issue persists after removing the case and restarting or restoring, the iPhone may need hardware repair. Make a reservation to have a Genius take a look at it or call AppleCare.

  • IPhone 4 camera hang

    I bought iPhone 4 three months back. For a while it was working good until I upgraded the software to 4.2
    after that the camera started hanging both on still and video modes. This makes situation very disgusting
    Please suggest any remedy.

    Sorry to hear you have a problem. Have you tried killing the app and relaunching? You can kill it with a double tap of the Home button (which brings up Switcher) then put your finger on the Camera icon until the X comes up, then delete it that way. Then relaunch it.
    If that doesn't work, perhaps a reboot?
    how many photos have you taken with your camera?
    Also if you live near an apple store, there is always the option of going into the store and asking for assistance too.

  • IOS 8.02 crashes iphone 5 camera

    My iPhone 5 camera function will hang with a black screen and crash on me ever since I have upgrade the iOS 7.2 to iOS8.02
    Occasionally, I get back view camera working (1 in 10 attempts). Would appreciate a solution from Apple since downgrading back to iOS7.2 is not permissible.

  • TS1702 The music app on my Iphone 4S is stuck.

    The music app on my Iphone 4S is stuck.   It keeps playing that same song over and over.  It won't progress to the next song on the playlist on its own, I have to use the next button to move it to the next song manually.  The shuffle doesn't work either.  I was going to delete it and reinstall it, but I can't even get an x to appear in the corner to delete and reinstall it (perhaps because it came preinstalled on the phone).  Anybody have this same problem, or a solution?

    If it keeps repeating the same song, then you probably have Repeat activated. See this graphic for the oval arrow to the left.
    If it is white it is off, if orange it is on. See the User Guide. http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf

    My latest iphone 4 with iOS6 hangs a locked. Cannot use it since the phone hangs even when typing password. Kindly help in regards to what can be done. The phone is now disabled for 60 mins.

    Hello lakshya.mangla,
    It sounds like your iPhone is stuck on the lock screen.  I found an article that provides steps you can take when locked out of your iPhone:

    It also sounds like you are also having some issues with the iPhone freezing in general, and the following steps will help address issues with an unresponsive iPhone:

  • Can't *insert* SIM card in iPhone... stuck... ?!

    A friend of mine has a new phone that I wanted to try out for a day or two.
    I popped the SIM card out of my iPhone, it came out fine, just like normal.
    But now when I try to re-insert the SIM card, the tray will go 95% of the way down and I simply can't press it down any more. There's some kind of mechanical obstruction on the side of the paperclip hole. The spring assembly seems stuck or broken. When I push a paperclip in, there's no action, it just hits a hard, immobile surface.
    I have tried to use a flashlight to see what's going on, but the slot is too small for me to see anything meaningful. At least not when I don't know what I'm looking for.
    Please help! Thank you!

    Just use this article to verify you have the SIM and card holder lined up correctly.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1438
    If you are lining it up correctly and the issue persists, the iPhone may need hardware repair. Make a reservation to have a Genius at a local Apple retail store take a look at it or call AppleCare.

  • IPhone 4 get stucked in animations in iOS 7.0.3

    Hi everyone,
    Since updating to iOS 7.0.3 my iPhone 4 get stucked in the transitions when:
    - From lock screen, use de camera. The lock screen moves up a bit and then get stucked at some point
    - In desktop, when using control center, it get stucked at some point when is moving up, it doesn't fully spread all the way
    - Sometimes, when navigating between desktops, it get stucked in the middle of them.
    I have made restoration and load my iPhone copy, everything is still the same?
    Any other person with this issue?
    Regards

    Hi, Escarcha. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    I would close all applications in multitasking and power cycling the device.  Once this is done test the results.
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    If you are still having trouble with the text appearing as you type after following those steps, you may want to try turning off Documents & Data under your iCloud settings.  On your iOS device’s Home screen, go to Settings > iCloud, then tap to turn off Documents and Data.
    iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings
