My iPad New camera won't focus when taking a picture or video!!

Today I bought the iPad New. Camera started acting up at once!! Everytime I try to take a picture the camera will not focus making all of my pictures blurry. What can I do to fix this? Anyone else experience this issue? Camera on the front of the iphone works and focuses just fine, however the back camera will only take a clear picture if you're like 6 inches or less away from the target. The tap to focus feature doesn't do anything for it.
Is that hardware problem or not?

Satler-
I had not seen that. It appears several people reported trouble, but no solutions.
Yes, I am sure that being out of focus beyond six inches is a defect.
There is another problem that you may encounter which is due to noise appearing as grain when there is not enough light for a useable picture. The "cure" would be to turn on more lights. The same thing might be true for focusing, which also requires enough light to function. See if it works better outdoors with daylight illumination.
Other unusual problems that have been reported for the iPad 3, have responded to a reset (reboot) of the iPad. Hold both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears. Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow. The iPad will restart after a couple of minutes. Resetting this way will not hurt anything, and sometimes clears up mysterious problems.

New photos won't focus, come out blurry

I've had my 3GS for about a year and half. I've always been able to take nice photos of documents (receipts etc.) with it for my records. In the past couple of weeks I've noticed that the camera won't focus well on document text under any lighting or angle. The lens looks clean. Could this be a problem with a recent software update? Or maybe a hardware problem since the phone has some mileage on it? Thoughts?
Thanks!

If resetting did not help, a restore "as new iphone" would be the next step. First, try to restore without using the backup after the restore process. If you can use the camera again after that, try to restore again, this time using the latest backup to get back your app data and settings.
If the camera problem comes back, your backup data contain the error and you'll have to restore again "as new iphone" without the backup, like you did in step one.

I have an iPhone 5 and the camera won't focus. I don't know if there's anything that can be done. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I have an iPhone 5 and the camera won't focus. I don't know if there's anything that can be done. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Basic troubleshooting
reset
restore with backup
then as new
as required if still issues then it is possibly a hardware fault suggest you take iPhone to an Apple Store genius bar

The glass on my iPhone 5 is missing and now my camera won't focus does it have anything to do with the glass missing?!

The glass on my iPhone 5 is missing and now my camera won't focus does it have anything to do with the glass missing?! Would buying a iPhone extension lens like the ones you just clip on the phone help?

Wow seems like some physical damage to the iPhone whether this is a manufacturing defect or misuse it would need to be evaluated and determined at either an Apple Store or Service provider. And yes this is most likely causing the camera not to focus.

My ipad front camera doesn't working,cannot take a picture this moment,how to fix this problem?

My ipad front camera doesn't working,cannot take a picture this moment,how to fix this problem?

Try closing the Camera app via the taskbar and see if it works when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Camera app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Camera app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

CK71 suddenly hang when taking a picture using the camera

Hi team, The customer is using the CK71 with camera option.
OS is. 1.61.22.72.
Our partner developed the camera application based on Intermec source file according to the IDL(Multimedia Resource Kit).
Regarding the source that the partner tested, I attached the zip file including the DotNetCF 3.5.
Also, I attached the CNxDShow.CAB that we have to install first for operating the camera. The symptom is... when taking the picture again and again in light environment and in dark environment by turns, suddenly CN70 hang. For restoring, we should remove the battery and install it again for rebooting.
But, the customer hates the removing and reinstalling the battery. To reproduce the symptom....
1. Copy all file under the folder "\FullSreenCameraCNx\FullSreenCameraCNx\bin\Debug" and paste them into the device.
2. Copy the CNxDShow.CAB and paste into the device.
3. Install the CNxDShow.CAB first
4. Create new folder "\My Documents\My Pictures" on the device, if the device doesn't have the name of the folder
5. Execute the FullScreenCameraCNx.exe on the device by clicking
6. Try taking a picture by pushing the enter key in light/dark environment by turns again and againIn our trouble shooting,
The application put the log file when taking a picture.
the location of the log is under the folder "Flash File Store\Log\Device_Conncet".
Normal log is...
===================================
2015-06-30 5:2:31 Camera Shot S
2015-06-30 5:2:31 Camera Shot E
2015-06-30 5:2:33 Start
2015-06-30 5:2:33 Shot Result : Ok : \My Documents\My Pictures\SnapShot-5.jpg

2015-06-30 4:58:1 Start
2015-06-30 4:58:1 Snapshot failed
===================================But, Abnormal log when Device hang suddenly is ...
No "Start" or No "Snapshot failed" like the below.
===================================

2015-06-30 5:5:35 Camera Shot S
2015-06-30 5:5:35 Camera Shot E
===================================Please see the logfile in the 20150630.txt that I attached additionally.
The thing that we are feeling that it was strange is....
in the source, if invoked "Cam.Snapshot(CurrentResolution)", "Cam_SnapshotEvent" should be called. But, when we experienced the "Device Hang" during taking the pictures, I guess that "Cam_SnapshotEvent" were not called. I copied and pasted the some part of source that I want to highlight like the below.
============================================================//---------------------------------------------------
// make snapshot
bool AcceptingEnter = true; //for eliminating repeating enter keydown events...
void Form1_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
if (e.KeyData == Keys.Enter && AcceptingEnter == true)
AcceptingEnter = false;
log_Entity.write_Log(1, " Camera Shot S");
Cam.Snapshot(CurrentResolution);
log_Entity.write_Log(1, " Camera Shot E");
e.Handled = true;
// Received snapshot event
void Cam_SnapshotEvent(object sender, Camera.SnapshotArgs sna)
log_Entity.write_Log(1, " Start");
if (sna.Status != Camera.SnapshotStatus.Ok)
log_Entity.write_Log(1, " Snapshot failed");
MessageBox.Show("Snapshot failed");
else
log_Entity.write_Log(1, " Shot Result : " + sna.Status + " : " + sna.Filename);
============================================================ Can anyone provide the information or solution why the CK71 suddenly hang and how to avoid the "device hang"? Best Regards,
Kim, Hyun Wook

Hello
you opened a case at our support portal. That is the right way to get support for such very specific issues.

No focus when taking video

Hi,You can't focus when taking video with Lumia 800. Sometimes the video is clear sometimes it is not focus at all. Is it a bug?

I think the problem only appears sometimes the phone is autolocked when video app is not exit. Then after you unlock and you find the video is not focus. You can just restart the video again and find it back to normal. It's not a bug.

After several years of use very satisfied with Firefox, recently loaded version (4.0.1) severely slows my browsing, and even my system, especially when there are pictures or videos. I said that this was not the case before and my system is Windows XP SP3.

After several years of use very satisfied with Firefox, recently loaded version (4.0.1) severely slows my browsing, and even my system, especially when there are pictures or videos. I said that this was not the case before and my system is Windows XP SP3.

I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

Black spots when taking a picture

When I take photos or videos, two black spots appear at the screen, this just happens when taking a photo or video so I guess that it might be something with the camera. I would like to know why is this happening and if there is any solution. This is really annoying so please help me,
Pablo

Are the spots in the same places every time? Do you have an example picture?

I have a white haze over photos when taking a picture with my flash

I have a white haze over photos when taking a picture with my flash. What can I do to fix it?

After the ios7 update, my wife's phone began having these same issues and we assumed it was a flaw with the update.
But after some trial and error, we concluded it was the illumination of the white plastic backing of the iPhone 4. We tried a different protective case, we blackened the apeture of the black case with a black sharpie, none of those things worked.
It was noted that the white and blurry photos only occurred with a case installed. Without a case, the photos were perfect. It is a *** issue.
Since we were using a case and appearance was not that big of an issue, I decided to apply a strip of black electrical tape with holes punched out for the camera and flash mechanisms and reapplied the protective case. This tacky fix solved 95% of the white blurry look to the flash photos.
So a work-around is to apply a non-transparent piece of tape, or sticker with appropiate sized holes for the camera lens and flash LED on the back of the white plastic phone case. It's tacky, it's a poor design from apple, but it works.

Zooming when taking a picture

I have a Blu Win HD Win Phone and when taking a picture and i'm trying to zoom in I stretch out using my thumb and forefinger but it doesn't do anything. How do I zoom in?

For help using Windows Phone please post in the Windows Phone forums on http://answers.microsoft.com

When taking a picture with home button and sleep button can you get rid of the tool and task bar??

When taking a picture with home and sleep button can you get rid of the tool and task bar?? (the search bars)

No, but you can use any picture editing tool to crop out the bars. (Many are free in the App Store.) Me personally, I use PhotoPad, which I use to crop as well as rotate the screen shot. Takes less than a minute to do both with PhotoPad.
