  • IPad 2 camera shutter won't open! PLEASE HELP!

    The iPad 2 camera shutter won't open!  I restored the iPad 2 and it still won't open.  Any ideas?

    I'm having the same problem as well with my U.S. bought iPad 2.
    My problem occures when I try to switch from the back camera to the front camera, then the shutter will not open.  I've tried everything: turning off, hard reboot, reset to factory, and re-applying firmware... still nothing.
    I have not tried charging it overnight, will do and post results.
    bummer!

  • My iphone 4 camera shutter won't open. I have already done a restore and I am using the latest iOS. The front facing camera works during FaceTime but crashes when I switch to rear camera. in Camera mode I can't switch to front camera.

    My iphone 4 camera shutter won't open. I have already done a restore and I am using the latest iOS. The front facing camera works during FaceTime but crashes when I switch to rear camera. in Camera mode I can't switch to front camera. I plan on replacing this phone with an iphone 5s when it comes out but I need this phone to work until then.

    When you did the restore, did you restore from a backup or restore as new? The final step of user troubleshooting is to restore as a new device, not from a backup. If you restore as a new device and the camera still does not function, it is probably a hardware issue. Make an appointment at the Apple Store Genius Bar and have the device checked by a Genius.

  • IPhone 4 camera shutter won't open when on WIFI

    SInce upgrading to iOS 5.0.1 on my iPhone 4 the camera app's shutter won't open when on wifi.  Works fine when on 3g.
    I reset the phone, restored the os, turned on an off location services, etc etc and nothing works.
    Anyone else have this issue or have a solution for this?

    Camera shutter PROBLEM SOLVED on my iPhone 4.   It looks the shutter locking is due to moisture.   I dried the phone using the cold very dry air from an air conditioner outlet for one hour.   The shutter began opening lickety split, better than ever before.(refrigerator or freezer wll not work!!!! - will not dry the phone internals) .   
    A guy on Youtube suggested drying out an iPhone 3 in the sun to solve Wifi operation problem and I decided to try on my iPhone 4.  The trick worked, camera shutter opens in about 1/2 second rather than 4 or 5 seconds or never.   To remove moisture from the phone, I suggest the A/C trick as more effective and safer than sun or hair drier.   Other possibility could be the 2 day jar of rice treatment.    RS in Kuala Lumpur

  • Camera shutter won't open in iphone 5

    I just got a new Iphone 5 as a warranty replacement.  The camera feature doesn't work.  The shutter remains closed.  The video doesn't work.  My flashlight app won't work.  I've tried a hard close on the camera app.  I've tried turning the phone off and on again.  The camera is not restricted.  It seems to be a software problem but I don't know how to download a new driver if that is how these phones work.  Please help.

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • Camera shutter won't open, have tried all the tricks, closing all apps, turning phone off, hard stop, etc. nothing is working. Any ideas ?

    My camera app on my iPhone 4 is not working. The app will open but the shutter will not open and I am unable to open the options, etc. I have tried closing all apps, closed and reopened my camera app, shut the phone off, did a hard stop and the camera still will not work. Any help ?

    Hard reset. Hold the top lock button & Home Screen button til you see the White apple. Try camera afterwards.

    problem : Camera doesn't work
    iOS 4.1
    iPhone 4
    Operating system : Windows 7
    If i Bring My iphone to The same Place That I Bought it from
    Will They Replace My iPhone or fix It ??
    Thank you

    I'm sure if you brought it in & explained your situation they'd replace it or try to fix it. You could also call Apple Care & perhaps they would mail you replacement. I personally would call Apple Care & most likely they will suggest you update to latest update but ask first whether that would jeopardize returning it....I don't think it should but I'm a cautious person

  • IPOD TOUCH 4th GEN WON'T SYNC PLEASE HELP!!!

    Hi I have a refurb ipod touch 4th gen, I bout it a little over 4 months ago and have sync-ed it with the same emac g4 running 10.5.8 iTunes 10.2(at time of purchase) to 10.4(today) and abruptly today I plugged it in, and my computer will not recognize it in the slightest. I followed instructions and guides and trouble shooters, and put it in recovery mode, dfu mode and plugged it into all the computers in the house, from 2010 MacBook to lenovo running ubuntu. It still charges using my wall charger, bit WON'T EVEN CHARGE When I connect it to the computer. and I would leave well enough alone except I want to sync new music and update iOS 5 when it comes out. But as stated before I have tried all I can, even looking into jailbreaking. PLEASE HELP I JUST BOUGHT THIS, if you can help in any way please do

    I Have Now For 5 Days Tried Everything On Apples Website, MacRumors, MacHeads, Etc. And Still Nothing, Although In Windows it Comes up with "USB Device Not Recognized" And When In Device Manager I Right Click on "Unknown Device" And Click Properties, And Its USB ID is All Zeros, Apple Had an article on this but i did all that was stated and still nothing.
    The Nearest 'Apple Certified' Genius Bar is At a Computer Store, but, Unlike Apple Stores; Diagnostics on ipods is $15 and then more to Fully Repair, So i Think I'll Call Apple First. haha
    thanks

  • Itunes 10 Installs but won't open - Please Help

    I had Itunes 10 installed working on my computer. I installed a program which also installed an older version of Quicktime which I think was version 6.5. The next time I tried to open Itunes it said I needed verion 7.5 of Quicktime to open Itunes please reinstall Itunes. Now comes the problem. I have installed and uninstalled Itunes about 10 times, everytime it install ok but does not open when I click on the icon. The itunes.exe file opens in task manager for a few seconds then closes. I have searched a few places for solutions with no avail. I have tried the correct order of removing apple programs and deleting temp folder and internet cache. I have tries msconfig but can't find any of the programs which have affected other users. I have tried creati9ng another user account for windows but Itunes still won't open. Can anyone please help. My computer is Windows 7 32 bit. Thank in advance.

    No, the program I installed was Winavi MP4 which coverts video to ipod psp format etc.
    Ack, that one's just as bad. It's been causing this sort of grief for iTunes users for over five years now.
    What it has probably done here is drop old versions of QuickTime componentry in unorthodox locations on the PC (usually down in your operating system files). So we're going to go looking for that.
    First we'll adjust some view settings on the PC.
    1. From the Start menu, click Open.
    2. In the Organize menu, click Folder and Search Options.
    3. Click the View tab.
    4. In the "Advanced settings" pane under "Hidden files and folders" make sure that the "Show hidden files and folders" option is selected, and the "Hide extensions for known file types" option is unchecked.
    5. Click OK.
    Now, in Computer, open your C drive (or whichever drive your operating system is installed on).
    Open the "Windows" folder.
    Open the "System32" folder.
    What files or folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the file or folder name? (In a standard installation of QuickTime, you should see precisely two files ... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

  • Lightroom 5 Catalog Won't Open - PLEASE HELP

    Hi,
    So, my most important lightrooom catalog won't open and I don't know what to do. Screenshot below. I guess it didn't shut down before I ejected my hard drive.

    Look in the backups folder, there should be several folders that are dated, look in the latest date and open that catalog, depending how much time was between the last back up and your last work, will determine how much work you lost.
    What I recommend (hind site here) is once you get your catalog open is save a catalog first in a location easy to get to, normally where your old corrupted catalog was. then select all images then save. (ctrl/cmd-s) This will write the metadata to your files on the drive or side car files(depending how you set it up and if they are raw or jpg. ) Then you will have this for a backup, as you will know that all edits you have done are in the metadata, therefore you can create a new catalog and import all files to get back to where you were.
    That said, use this method as a last case scenario, normally using a back up catalog would be good enough. However, if something happened to that main folder, like corrupted segments on the drive, you would have your images to fall back on, or at least those you can access.
    But if your backing up to an external drive, you should be alright anyway.
    I tend to go over board with backing up since I had a drive that crash a few years ago.

  • Iphone 4S Camera Shutter won't open after update to iOS 5.1.1

    are other people having this issue too and if yes then how did you resolve it?

    Did you try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes up again? You will not lose data doing a reset.
    If this does not help, set it up as new device again, without using the latest backup.
