Iphone 6 camera takes a picture and the picture is missing

Question about the iphone 6. Two different occasions now i have taken a picture with the stock camera app, the picture shows up in the bottom left preview window and when i go to click it and it takes me to the photo app, the picture is not there. Preview always stays there for the picture but the picture is missing. The first time it happened i tried to reboot the phone, it was still there, then i did a restore  and then the picture preview was finally gone. Now it happened again and i would like to not restore my phone again. Is anyone having this issue? It happened once before the ios8 update and after it. I have been searching all over and cant seem to find anyone who has this problem. I even plugged the phone into my computer to see if it was in there and it wasn't. Thanks!

Yes  the restore phone worked to lose the pic but then it just happened again a couple weeks later. I actually found a work around for getting rid of the preview picture. I plugged my phone in and deleted any recent pics from the camera and cleared the photo stream then I restored a photo I had from the trash on the phone and then delete the trash photo again, some reason the preview of the lost pic goes away. That just happened on a fluke but I Still haven't figured out why the camera takes a picture and it doesn't always exist except in a preview though. At least i figured out how to get rid of it without restoring.

  • HT4623 My camera just recently went blurry. It was working just fine yesterday but then I went to use it today and the pictures are so fuzzy. Has anyone else had this problem with their iPhone 5?

    1st... make sure nothing's covering/smudging the camera lens.  then...
    Standard troubleshooting...
    Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    Remove the Camera app from Recently Used list...
    - From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
    - Tap and hold any icon in this list until they wiggle
    - Press the red to delete the Camera app from this list.
    - Press the home button twice when done.
    - Restart the Camera app
    If still a problem restore with your backup.
    If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
    If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.

  • One day it just stopped focusing and the pictures are blurry.  If I switch it to the front camera it works well and looks like it should but when I turn it back it goes back to being out of focus and I can't figure out how to fix it?

    i installed ios 7.after  that my primary cam, one day it just stopped focusing and the pictures are blurry.  If I switch it to the front camera it works well and looks like it should but when I turn it back it goes back to being out of focus and I can't figure out how to fix it?

    This advice will sound like a joke or prank, but believe me it worked on my iPhone 5 and my daughter's.  The lens mechanism got stock on each of our iPhones.  We found a post on these message boards that said to hold the iPhone about 6 inches above a table or counter top and drop it so that it lands flat on it's back.  Now try the camera ...Fixed!  It has been more than six months now and neither of our iPhones have ever experienced the problem again.

    Try to force your phone into recovery mode. Disconnect it from the computer's USB cord. Turn it off if you can by holding the sleep/wake switch until you see the red slide to off. If you can't turn it off, please continue. Press and hold the home button while plugging it into the computer's USB cord. Continue holding the Home button while iPhone starts up. While starting up, you will see the Apple logo. When you see "Connect to iTunes" on the screen, you can release the Home button and iTunes will display the recovery mode message.  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    Then you can restore your phone:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

    Only way to get it back is to restore your phone from a backup, if those pics were included in that backup.
    But most likely those pics are gone.
    What you should've done was import http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 the pics to your computer and after you restored from your old backup, you could sync those new pics to your phone via itunes.

    Chances are you saved the file as a jpg -- which does not support transparency.
    Save the file as a psd or tiff and see if that solves the problem.

    Restoring a backup is specific to the backup program you are using to do your daily backups - consult it's manual, help file or author's support site
    Back up your iPhoto library, Depress the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library starting with the first option and trying others until you are succesful

  • When I click on my Facebook album, it just takes me to a page that says 'content not available' and the pictures do not show up on my page. Why?

    Hi everyone,
    I'm having some trouble with Facebook for iPhoto. I recently migrated my buisness profile to a Page, per Facebook's rules, so when I log-in, I only have my Page. I connected the e-mail and password with iPhoto and have been trying to upload pictures. The pictures go to iPhoto, and they pend and then get approved. However, they do no show up on my Page, and when I try to click on the album through iPhoto is just says 'content not available.'
    Does anyone know a solution to this problem?
    Thanks,
    Louise

    Hello TheGyzmo,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    It looks like your might have signed up for iTunes Match.
    Good to know
    When you enable iTunes Match on your iOS device, the music library on your iOS device will be deleted and replaced with your music in iCloud.
    Syncing music with iTunes will be disabled while iTunes Match is enabled on your iOS device.
    By default, when you add an iOS device to iTunes Match, the option to download over a cellular network isn't enabled1. To enable downloading over a cellular network for iTunes Match, choose Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Use Cellular Data > On.
    When you use iTunes Match on an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac, or PC, it will be associated with the Apple ID you use for iTunes Match. Learn more about subscribing to iTunes Match.

    What I suggest is that you move your music from your old laptop to your new one by following the steps below:
    iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
    After that, you can then add iTunes match on your computer, or turn off iTunes Match on your iPhone, and then sync your iPhone as you would normally with your new computer.

  • Iphone 3GS- How do you get the pictures to show up larger when someone call

    Iphone 3GS- How do you get the pictures to show up larger when someone calls? I know this seems trivial but I have difficulty seeing, so one of the reasons I actually purchased this phone was for this feature. When the photos do come up they come up in the top right corner in small boxes / windows. I already google'd this topic and they suggested importing the photos - to itunes and than directly on to the iphone, I did this and it didn't work. Additionally I took a few test photos from the iphone and tried setting them to contacts. This didnt work either. I looked in settings and could not find anything that discussed this issue. Although I do believe I have seen iphones that ring with large pictures. Am i Crazy?

    You aren't crazy.
    Adding the photo to contacts on the computer gets you the smaller pix when people call.
    Assign the photo on the phone itself and you get full-size pix.
    Additionally I took a few test photos from the iphone and tried setting them to contacts. This didnt work either.
    So, that certainly should work. Try it again? Try it with a brand new contact, maybe it is not overwriting a previously existing picture.
    I suppose there is a small possibility that Apple thought this differing behavior was a bug instead of a feature and "fixed" it with a recent update, but I doubt it.

  • I am trying to apply a lens filter in CS6 to a mp4 movie from the phantom 2 . I do the normal steps of lens filter and choose dji, phantom2 , and I click ok and the picture improves and there is less curve etc. What I don't know is why it seems to revert

    I am trying to apply a lens filter in CS6 to a mp4 movie from the phantom 2+. I do the normal steps of lens filter and choose dji, phantom2+, and I click ok and the picture improves and there is less curve etc. What I don't know is why it seems to revert back to the old movie when I come back later on. I know I saved it but I must be doing something wrong. Here are my steps:
    Open an Mp4 movie
    Choose filter, lens correction
    Choose dii
    choose Phantom FC200
    click ok and the image improves.
    I then save as a name.psd and close the file.
    I reopen the file and it looks good. When I play the movie it just jumps back to the old curved horizon.
    What am I doing wrong? If you can help me I would be very grateful.

    •  If you have not already done so, restart Mac and
        try again.  If the iSight still does not work, continue.
    • If Apple's http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
       suggestions do not help you, (are you certain that you
       used the correct "reset" procedure?), yours is most likely a
       hardware problem that will require a professional fix. 
       Unless you have a current backup, make one now.
      Then use the final "Troubleshooting" suggestion:
    "... contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service."
    • If you want to try one more thing on your own first,
      use Disk Utility to repair permissions.  Then
      download and apply the latest Combo Update for
      your OS.  Currently, the latest SL Combo is here:
        http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
    • Repair permissions again immediately following the system restart
       that completes the Combo update.
    Properly applying the Combo version of updates can sometimes correct software problems, but, if your trouble is caused by a hardware problem, there are no user serviceable parts of iSight.

  • I was processing pictures and the Basic function on the right has disapeared ( the one that has Exposure etc) I know see the Histogram, then Tone Curve, HSL/Color/B

    I was processing pictures and the Basic function on the right has disappeared, the one that contains Exposure, Contrast etc. I now have only the Histogram, Paint Brush etc, then it goes to Tone Curve, HSL/Color/B&W and all others down to Camera Calibration. How can I recuperate Basic ?? Thanks for your help

    i have now found where the OS permission is located but cannot find a way to change it. Here is what I have done:
    - Selected the Local Disk Folder
    - Chose  File>Get Info
    - Click on Sharing and Permissions (It shows Read Only)
    Now this is where I am stuck, the instruction in Apple Support says "Select a user or Group from the Name Column then choose the following Pop-Up menu in the Priviliges column(this is where the Read &Write option should be. I can't choose a user or group under the name column, all I have in the Name column is "Local Disk"
    Can someone help me from here to convert to Read & Write, thanks

  • If I turned off picture backup on iPhone, is it possible to restore the pictures saved before the settings change?

    Hi,
    Anyone know if iCloud keeps older backups?
    If I turned off picture backup on iPhone, is it possible to restore the pictures saved before the settings change?
    Thanks.

    No. but restoring from backup will if hey are in a backup
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up     
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
