Iphone 6 plus ios 8.2 update camera wont focus

i just recently updated my iphone 6 plus to ios 8.2 however the camera won't focus i've noticed a few people are having this same issue. what should i do ?
i've already contacted my local apple authorized dealer however they want me to go five days without my phone. do you guys see this as being reasonable
and did i mention my phone is still underwarrenty.

The problem is much more complex than is there a smudge on the lens or is your finger covering the lens. It appears to be iOS 8.2 related as the issue coincided perfectly with my upgrade to iOS 8.2 on my 6 plus. The focus is now fixed to approximately 12 inches. Landscapes are incredibly blurry. If I tap to focus the lighting box will come up but it will not focus. Reboots and changes to HDR do not fix it. Changes in mode (i.e. slo-mo, time-lapse, video) have the same problem.

  • I just updated my iphone to ios 7 and updated itunes to 11.1.  Yesterday I noticed I couldn't move music from my library to my iphone.  Today I noticed that most of the music on my iphone is gone.  What do I do?

    I don't see how the AAC Version thing really applies here - the issue seems to be with
    the time it takes for "Preparing to Update" to run when adding new songs and
    the fact that a bunch of songs can get temporarily deleted from your phone, then need to be recopied over.
    I should also add that I'm using iTunes for Mac (OS 10.6).
    And Linda0410, if you view your phone's library in iTunes on your computer while it's copying, you should be able to see a bunch of grayed out songs, and there will be a little indicator on the left hand side of each song that's currently being copied.

    Hello Kunmon,
    The following article provides some useful troubleshooting that can help get your iPhone's camera working correctly.
    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.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.

  • IPhone 4S, iOS 8.2 update, iTunes album cover art missing

    Hello,
    I just updated my 64GB iPhone 4s to the new iOS 8.2, after reading online that it addressed issues with previous iOS 8 updates.
    Everything on the phone seems to work fine as far as I've found, but the album cover art for almost every album isn't coming over.
    I know this may sound insignificant, but it is the fastest way to look up music, especially when on the go.
    I have all my album artwork included on iTunes on my laptop.  Previous to this update, all album covers came over to iPhone.
    I just did the update to 8.2 last night (March 9, 2015), and synced my iPhone with my laptop to update my music catalog.
    First time it didn't bring the artwork over, so I re-synced and tried again.  Our of the 474 albums currently on the devise, album artwork came over on 58 albums.
    Has anyone else identified this issue?  If so, were you able to find a solution?
    Thank you.

    This has happened about 2 other times since updating to iOS 8.3.  I have an iPhone 6 Plus (128 GB).  I am able to retrieve the album artwork by removing the music from the device and then syncing with iTunes again.  This is a hassle, though, as I have 12,000+ songs that I sync to the device.  Album artwork hangs around for about 2 weeks and then mysteriously vanishes again.  So I have finally given in and will wait until the next software update and then hope for the best with another remove/sync cycle after the update has been applied.
    Bush league, Apple.  Bush league.

  • Car Stereo No Longer Recognizes iPhone after iOS 7.1 Update

    I connect my iPhone to my car stereo with via USB (the stereo doesn't have bluetooth) and now after the iOS 7.1 update, it no longers works in my car. My stereo displays an error message of 'iPod err' when I connect it. I've used this same car stereo and USB cable to connect my iPhone for years without any issues, until the 7.1 update a couple days ago.
    Anyone else having this issue? This is real frustrating.

    In another thread on this issue, Brendan writes:
    Turns out restarting my car and/or rebooting my iphone "fixed" the issue. Apparently this was unrelated to the iOS 7.2 upgrade. Honda + iPhone has been rock solid (even if the Honda Fit UI is terrible), so I'm not sure what to make of this problem. Maybe a glitch? Who knows.
    Here is the URL for that thread: https://discussions.apple.com/message/25211736?ac_cid=tw123456#25211736
    His suggestion worked for me: turn off your car, completely shut-off your phone and let it sit a few minutes. Then reboot phone and start car and try again.
    Good luck!

  • Iphone 4s - ios 8.1 Update, No sound

    Hello,
    I have just updated my iphone 4s from 7.1 to 8.2 (not a stepped migration I know, more of a big bang update!) I did this thinking 8.1 was stable and that stories I had heard of 8.0 problems would have been ironed out. They haven't.
    I am a seasoned iPhone and IOS user having had all the models of phone upto the 4s, however now I am very unhappy that I have to consider rolling back my IOS version to be able to continue using my phone effectively.
    The problem is that the sound no longer works at all for Youtube, music app, videos =, basically any applications that require watching moving images,.. the slider just simply does not appear on the screen to be able to adjust!.
    The sound buttons also do no longer work (apart from within Setting>sounds, where the buttons work intermittently once you have manually adjusted the 'ringer and alerts' slider)
    Doing some diagnostics, the mute switch on the side and the buttons both start working, when being manually adjusted in Setting>sounds, though the minute I step outside of Setting>sounds all buttons and the switch stop working completely ??
    Glitch, I think so... What step of your your Sprint are you on for 8.2 and when can we expect the next iteration?
    Thanks
    Mark.

  • Iphone 4 ios 7 not updating or downloading apps

    My iphone 4 ios 7 is not letting me update or download apps. I have tried rebooting and redownloading the
    Multiple times. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

    Read this for error 21
    Error 20, 21, 23, 26, 28, 29, 34, 36, 37, 40
    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.

  • Bookmarks not syncing on iPhone after iOS 4.3 update

    I have the following problem since the iOS 4.3 update on 1 iPhone 3GS and 2 iPads (no problem on iPhones 4)
    If I attach device to iTunes and start syncing, everything seems synced except the bookmarks. I get either messages:
    'iTunes could not sync bookmarks to the iPhone "name" because an error occured while merging data.'
    'iTunes could not sync bookmarks to the iPhone "name" because the bookmarks are in use bu the iPhone.'
    If I do a second sync - without quiting iTunes - the bookmarks are synced.
    Any idea how to solve this ?

    Any update on this. All problems started with the update to iOS 4.3. It is with first sync only after connecting to iTunes Mac. After a second sync I get no error
    I also found below solutions but they don't help:
    http://discussions.info.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2161044
    "On your phone, open Safari, close any pages by hitting the red X, then force quit Safari(Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on top of iPhone for a few seconds until a red slider appears, and then press and hold the Home button until the application quits.). Then go to Settings, Safari, Clear Cookies, Clear Cache, Clear History. See if this fixes the problem. ?

  • Iphone 5/ios 7.0.2 camera issues

    I have an iPhone 5. Since the update to 7.0.2, my camera keeps crashing. Especially the back camera seems to be the problem. I did restore my phone two times on iTunes and it does not help for long. Is this a  software issue and should i wait for 7.0.3? Or should i go to a Apple store?

  • Internet (partially) not working on iPhone post iOS 8.1 update

    I updated my iPhone to iOS 8.1 this morning (iPhone 5S, 64GB).
    Since then, I don't seem to be able to access data through the cellular connection, EXCEPT:
    - data seems to work in SOME apps (but some apps will load text, but not images for example). Same problem on emails through Mail
    - most websites won't load, though bizarrely Google does (not just cached - I can make new searches)
    No problem with reception. And have also tried reinstalling the carrier's WAP settings, but hasn't changed anything.
    Any suggestions?!

    HI, I would like to help you with this FaceTime issue. Can you expand on the problem please?

  • IPhone 3G - iOS 4.1 Update Issue

    Ok, I don't know whether anyone has had this problem before, but my iPhone won't complete its update progress. It's stuck at approximately half way of the bar and stops completely. It's been sitting here for a couple of hours now.
    I really do not know what the deal is with this! It's really driving me nuts. I'll be taking this over to the apple store tomorrow to get it checked, but until there are there any suggestions that can be made to hasten the fix for this poor iPhone? * I wish I had a 4 *
    Thanks for all the comments!

    Don't worry, it's syncing you'll want to keep an eye on. Restoring from another computer is completely safe, all you have to do is once it actually finishes restoring it'll ask you (in iTunes) whether you want to setup as a new phone or as a backup. Obviously you won't have your backup on that machine, so you'll just have to unplug your phone (prior to setting up as a new phone) and plug it into your normal machine. It'll ask you (again) whether you want to setup as a new phone or use your backup (which would be on the machine you'd be using now). Then viola! You're phone is working again.
    Take care not to setup your phone on the alternate machine, just use it as a restoring centre.
    Again, it's still your risk. I did mine using these steps which fixed my phone. I was, also, able to use the backup that I had on my original machine, no problem.
    Hope this helps,
    Kind Regard,
    Mathan

  • IPhone 5 ios 6.1.4 camera no longer works?

    Since the ios update my camera and flash have stopped working. I've done both soft and hard resets and neither fixed the problem. I'd rather not have to wipe my phone and start over if I don't have to. Anyone else with this problem?? Also I don't have a computer to re-sync to, I just use iCloud.

    Since you don't have a computer and you did an OTA update just take your iPhone 5 and go to the Apple Store and when you talk to someone first describe the problem you are having. Like when you open up the camera app does it crash? Does it show a black screen? When you tap the camera icon does it not take a picture? Are you sure you have the flash on? If the camera app isn't opening then it sounds like a bug. If the camera app opens and it shows a blank screen then it's a hardware issue or if the flash is on and it's not working then it's a hardware issue.

  • IPhone 4s iOS 5.1 update, iMessage- my contact is coming up as my apple ID

    I updated my iphone 4s to ios 5.1 last night and then today when I texted someone else with an iPhone using iMessage, my contact came up as my Apple ID email on their phone instead of my name that was associated with my phone number. This obviously caused a lot of confusion because my email isn't my name and the person I texted didn't know who the message was from. The message looks completely normal on my phone and their contact came up fine but mine didn't work on theirs. I also determined it was my phone that was the problem because I texted another person with an iPhone and the same exact thing happened again. I checked to see if anyone else had this problem and I couldn't find any postings on the Apple forum. So if you are having the same problem and/or know how to fix it, please help!

    Go into Settings>Messages>Receive at>See that the phone number is the one that is checked off.
    EDIT: Sorry, I forgot,there is one more layer, scroll down to Caller ID and make sure the phone number is the one checked. For some reason mine sometime today showed an error for the phone number. It wasn't that way even after the update. I just toggled iMessage off and back on and that corrected it.
