it would help if you expound a bit, and give a little more background of the problem. given limited info, i suppose you take pics by tapping onscreen? ..in that case, maybe you're just not pressing the button well enough. when you press the camera button (halfpress), it should focus... then press deeper, it will take the pic.
its a long shot, but do you have a silicon case on your fone? i used to have the same problem before.. it was a bit hard to operate and 'feel' the button's accuracy with that protective rubber case on.
on a totally different point of view... are you talking about waking your fone up with the camera button when it's locked?
again, its hard to get a specific answer if one does not actually see / test the unit, let alone a vague question.

Nokia Lumia 720's Camera Is Not Working Properly

I have a nokia lumia 720 phone.
Os- WindowsPhone 8.1 cyan
My phone's camera is not working properly.
Sometime the camera closes automatically.
And some pink lines appear in the screen.
Sometime camera don't open when press the camera key or click camera app.(it just opens and closes)

Hi. After updating the device to Lumia Cyan, did you also update the system apps? If not yet, please scan the QR codes found on the below link:
http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Pool-of-Knowledge/Nokia-Windows-Phone-8-App-Updates/td-p/1640082
Aside from the built-in camera, are you also experiencing the issue with the other lens apps? Also, please confirm. Did this issue arise after updating the device to Lumia Cyan?
If you have updated the system apps and the issue is still present, try resetting the camera settings of the device. Go to Settings > applications > photos+camera > reset camera.
If you have identified that the issue also happens with other lens apps, try pressing and holding both the volume down and the power keys for 10-15 seconds. The phone will vibrate. It will restart afterwards.
Keep us posted.

My camera does not work on my ipod touch 4th gen. it just goes to a black screen i have done everything from resetting and rebooting... help :(

I fell down the stairs the other day and busted my other ipod to the gamewerks near my house. the guy said he couldnt fix that ipod so he gave me a new one.. a better one a 32GB, the broken one was 8GB. but he told me the only bad thing is that the camera does not work and he doesnt know why... he just couldnt get it to workkk... any ideas on whats wrong?

Try the following:
- A reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

Take the iPhone to an Apple store genius bar for testing, and if it is defective and under warranty they will replace. Since you say iPhone 4, was this a used or refurbished iPhone?

I have done absalutely nothing to my 4g apple ipod touch, and it over heats, won't hold a charge, and the front camera will not work. I bought this brand new in december, and i've barely used it. I've tried restarting it and everything, what should i do?

I've tried restarting it and everything, I honestly think this is out raging because i spend over $200 on this. To have for music and instagram. I use it about an hour a day, but i've only been using it for about 3 months although i've had it since December. Any suggestions that may help me?

Hello Manishshakya,
I see that you are having problems with the webcam on your computer. The unit you have is a HP commercial unit.
I would suggest posting your problem in the HP Commercial Forum as well. There are more users with the computer you have on this board and it is specific to your computer.

Web-Cam does not work on Lenovo G480, PLEAS HELP!!

Hello,
I have a Lenovo G480 (20165), and my built-in Web-Cam is not working.
When I enable it by pressing Fn+Esc the little light by the Web-Cam turns on, then shuts off after a second.
So I downloaded the Lenovo Easy Capture, and when I open the software, I get a message saying "Failed To Open Camera".
And when I turn on my laptop, the little light comes on for a short moment, then the light shuts off.
I don't know what to do, It's a brand-new laptop and I've never been able to get the Web-Cam to work, not even on Skype.
I would REALLY appreciate the help. Thank you!
