My iphone camera issues

When i try to edit a picture on my iphone 4s in the built in camera app my iphone keeps rebooting (ios 5.1.1)

Basic troubleshooting steps clearly outlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as NEW.
If you've been through ALL these steps and you still have problems, then you'll need to bring your phone into Apple.

  • Iphone camera issue when using flash

    camera takes photo when flash is off.  when we use flash, no matter what we do, the photo is all white

    Is there a case on the iPhone? Is it designed for that verison of the iPhone? What color is the case and what color is the back of the phone? It is possible this "wash" is being caused by a reflection of the flash on the case. This can reflect back on the camera lens and wash out the picture.

  • Iphone camera issue

    i have a green "casting"/hue when taking pictures... are there any setting to do white balancing? I have checked someone elses and it appeared fine....

    From what I can tell this is normal- the green tint and magenta center. I looked at many iPhones at the Apple store and they were all pretty much the same.
    Note that with bright ambient lighting (like outdoors) this problem is significantly reduced. Not sure if they can fix this with a firmware update.
    Here are some examples of good and bad photos from my iPhone:

  • I am frequently experiencing Iphone 5 camera issues, while taking photos all of the sudden the camera going to hang mode

    Hi,
    Greetings !!!
    I would like to know what is the root cause of Iphone camera hanging ?
    I am very frequently experiencing Iphone 5 camera issues like while taking photos all of the sudden the camera going to hang mode with full of pink & black line.
    I noticed while camera app turns ON the phone going to hand.
    I went to apple services server with this problem & they said they didn't see any errors.
    Kindly response with my request, and provide me the solution.
    Thannks & regards,
    -Vamsi

    That often happens with cameras when you take pictures of a computer screen. LCD screens "flicker" and the camera will often catch the flicker.

  • Weird issues between iPhone Camera Roll and iPhoto?!?!?

    I just noticed when opening Photos and then my Camera Roll of pics taken with my 3G that there is a large black irregular shape area covering the top 2 rows of pics and part of the third row as well. I have exited and returned to the app, shut down and restarted my iPhone and no change. If I tap in the black area (don't know what I'm tapping) it will bring up whatever photo is actually there, but there is no way to see it in the thumbnail preview screen because of the black overlay. If I connect the iPhone to my Macbook and open iPhoto, it seems to see that there are photos in my Camera Roll, but they are all blank and iPhoto thinks there are 32 photos there but there is not that many because I have deleted some of them :-O Clicking on a blank photo does not bring up the actual photo, just nothing happens.
    So, to try and remedy this I manually deleted all the photos from my Camera Roll on the iPhone, so there were NO PHOTOS in the Camera Roll and then did a sync with my MacBook. iPhoto still thinks there are 32 photos and they are all blank placeholders like before! I tried to "import all" just to see what would happen and 4 were readable and the rest were "unreadable files". I said to delete all the photos after importing but it still lists 32 photos there. Even when the iPhone is disconnected, the iPhone icon stays in iPhoto and I have to manually unmount it. So, there is total disconnect between what is actually on my Camera Roll on the iPhone and what is being seen by iPhoto. It's as though iPhoto is stuck in a particular point in time and can't get rid of some cache or memory of a previous iPhone Camera Roll state. Before updating to OS 3.0, whenever I unplugged the iPhone after a sync, the icon would disappear as a mounted drive in iPhoto so that has changed as well.
    I have no idea where to even begin trying to fix this problem. I'm using iPhoto 7.1.5 and not sure whether this is an iPhoto problem or iPhone problem or both?!?! Any feedback would be extremely appreciated!

    I'm having a similar issues. Every program on my Mac that is capable of acquiring images from a digital camera (iPhoto, Graphics Converter, Image Capture, etc.) thinks that my iPhone is mounted and that there are 77 pictures to download. It doesn't matter whether the phone is actually connected to the computer or not. I've even restored the iPhone to the factory state and it makes no difference. Thus, I believe the problem to be on the Mac itself. I don't know the details on how it works (could anyone enlighten me?) but I'm very surprised that multiple programs are having the same issue. Obviously, there is some layer that is between the actual device and the programs that use the device. That layer must be corrupted. But what is it, where is it, and how can I fix it?

  • IPhone 5 camera issue.... NEED HELP please

    I just got this iPhone 5 camera issue. I was taking pictures (around 20 pictures), suddenly the camera only focused downward (to the ground). Even I raised the iphone higher and focused to the head of person that stood in front of me, but the camera still took the pictures of that person's hip and legs. Every pictures that I took were focusing downward.
    I tried it today the second time. After I continously took 40 pictures, this problem started again.
    Should I get a replacement? IS it a ios6 or phone problem?
    Actually, after I restarted the phone, this problem was gone. But I just want to make sure that this problem will not come again after 1year warrantee.

    when your r on your camera app, press and hold the sleep/wake button and after 4 secs you'll see the red slide of power off option. without sliding that, just press and hold the home button until the camera app quits. This will reset the app.
    If this doesnt work, go to your comp and delete the softwareupdate.ipsw file from itunes media folder (if you've previoulsy updated or restored) and do a restore. this will download a new update file from apple server that will be error free.

    Have not seen this issue, but keep an eye on it so to not miss the warranty period. If it does it again, take it to apple and get a replacement.

  • I've read a lot of comments/suggestions about camera issues that it turns black when opening the phone camera but nothing is worked for me. I'm so frustrate on my iPhone 5s im using it like for a month, I thought its more better than Samsung but I failed.

    I would have had the phone looked at long before a month of problems.
    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
    If that doesn't help Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support. You phone is under warranty and someone at an Apple store can help you.

  • IPhone 4s camera issue, extra grid line - please help!

    Hi everyone,
    I have a lovely new 4s, have had it for less than 24 hours and there is a problem with the camera that I cannot find anywhere else on the web yet... I have an extra grid line that does not disappear and which does show up on the photos I take!
    Details: the grid line is on the main rear facing camera only; it is there whether the grid is turned on or off; it appears as a grid line on the photos you take; the camera is up-to-date with the latest version; I have tried restarting the phone; it only happened after I switched to HDR mode and then when I turned HDR off, this mysterious extra grid line was there; the line is only there in photo mode - it disappears when switched to video mode...
    and I think that's those are all the details I can give you!
    Is anyone experiencing / experienced this same problem? If so, please help!! Thank you so much!
    Thanks everyone, and Happy Holidays to all!

    Hi KiltedTim. Thanks, yes, I will definitely have to do this if I can't get rid of it - just so annoying, because won't be able to go for a while, until after the Christmas holidays, which means I'll be without my cool iPhone camera!
    Also - the one thing I forgot to mention in my original post is that I took several photos which all came out perfectly. The issue only happened after the first time I switched HDR mode on and then turned it back off.
    Thanks for your help,
    Any more suggestions out there anyone? Thanks all!

  • IPhone 4 camera issue: check it out!

    I'm asking you, iPhone 4 users, if you can make a test of your camera.
    I am substantially pleased by the iPhone 4 camera but after some days of use, viewing the images at 100% crop (1:1), I discovered a defect on all the shots.
    At the far left side, next to border and top to bottom, the image is blurry, independently of the point of focus of the lens.
    I post five shots of mine (original, not edited) so you can check out and compare:

    Please let me know if this is happening to you too and is to be considered "normal" or if my iPhone camera lens got some problems and need to be swapped.
    Thank you

    I don't see anything, but I might be blind. If there's a bit of blurring on the edge, it's easy to crop.
    The reason it might be blurry is because of how the iPhone takes a photo. You might think it's an instant capture of the whole scene, but it actually quickly captures the image from left to right. You might be seeing a small amount of jiggling as the image is captured. A real camera, using a CMOS image detector is much faster. A good digital camera can go up to ISO 6400 with 1/1000 speed (OK, only in very bright light).
    This is why mobile phones (whether the iPhone or whatever) are just junk for taking real photos. You're trying to find perfection with a $20 part on the iPhone. If you want perfect photos, you need a $5000 Nikon D5 with $2000 lenses. But of course, a great camera is not the panacea for all photo issues or user incompetence.
    I think your photos are nice, considering you're using a very limited iPhone camera. Crop it, and it'll look really good. Otherwise, your expectations are way too high for the iPhone camera.

  • Iphone camera not recognized in Windows 7

    Hello Fellow iPhone users
    I am having a problem with the iPhone camera on the iPhone 3g 3.0. I cannot get it to allow me to open up the camera to get the pictures off of it. When I go to Devices and Printers it shows the Apple Mobile Device USB driver and that is installed fine and it works in ITunes, however, it also shows the iPhone but with the yellow triangle and exclamation point. It says that the driver is not installed properly. The status is needs troubleshooting. When I go to properties, it says "The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)". I have tried reinstalling iTunes, unplugging, replugging the iPhone. I have tried a different iPhone (a 3GS with version 3.1.2) with the same results(they both work fine in XP).
    I have been trying to get this working for a few hours and have no idea what is wrong. Are there any other drivers I can get? How about reinstalling the usb drivers? This is on an Acer netbook, and it was working with Windows 7 starter, but when I upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate, it stopped working. I assume it is a driver issue, but I don't know what other drivers I can use or which ones to change out. Other USB cameras are working fine.
    Please let me know if you need any other information.
    Thank you for any help you can provide.

    Windows sometimes won't detect the phone and allow camera/scanner access if there are pics on the iphone not taken by the iphone camera. Email any non camera taken pics to yourself, download them on your computer, then delete the pics from the iphone. When you reconnect your computer it should start the camera/scanner download as usuall.

  • IPhone Camera App Crashed...

    Hello, I was taking some pictures with the iPhone camera app when all of the sudden after taking the picture, the camera app closed and the iPhone screen showed the shutdown spinwheel for a few seconds and then returning the the unlock screen. When I reopened the picture app, the picture that I took before the crash was gone. What could have cause this crash issue? but most importantly where's the picture? is it gone or was transmitted to somewhere else (folder, camera roll, iCloud, etc.)?
    Thanks for the assistance!
    P.S. I am looking at the iPhone logs and see that there was a springboard crash near the time of the crash. Can a springboard crash cause the iPhone to show a shutdown spinwheel and then leave you back in the log in screen?

    I am using iOS6.1.1
    Can you try to load up the apples and try take some HDR photos.

  • Import photos off iPhone camer into iPhoto

    For some reason, I cannot seem to get iPhoto to recognize my iPhone anymore. I just need to pull photos of iPhone camera into iPhoto so I can make a book. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    Have you tried image capture (in your applications folder)?
    Check the iPhoto preference for action when a camera is connected
    A good general step for strange issues is to renew the iPhoto preference file - quit iPhoto and go to "your user name" ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iPhoto.plist and trash it - launch iPhoto which creates a fresh new default preference file and reset any personal preferences you have changed and if you have moved the iPhoto library repoint to it. This may help

  • Printing edited photos on my ipad and iphone camera roll using HP eprint app

    I edited and saved photos on my ipad and iphone camera roll. When I use the HP eprint app to print the photos to my HP 5514 Photosmart printer, the edited photo that I select does not show up in the preview, (the original shows up not the saved edited version). I am stumped because in the photo book and on the camera roll the edited version is the only one visible. I don't know what the problem may be. Why is it reverting to the original?

    Hi jdanrok,
    I did some testing on my iPad and found that after you edit a pic in photos and save it, it will only show the edited version. However, if you go to edit the "edited" photo, you can "Revert to Original", which means it is not really saving the "edited" version, it just "remembers" what you have changed.
    When you go into the HP ePrint app, it is only seeing the original, and not the "edited" version.
    If you are printing over local wifi (using Airprint) you can actually print the "edited" photo directly from the Photos App by touching the arrow towards the top of the screen and choosing Print.
    If you are wanting to use the ePrint app, and you are not on your local wifi (through ePrint), you can email the "edited" photo, save the "edited" photo from the email and it will be just the "edited" version. The old psuedo "edited" version will still be there also.

  • IPhone sim issues

    I am getting a jailbroke iPhone pretty soon. I currently use a nexus one with my pre paid at&t sim. I read issue people having problems with sim not recognized. If I restored with iTunes and restored to factory settings, will I have a problem? I'm new to iPhones and this forum. Sorry if posted in wrong place and any help or advice would be very helpful.

    No way to answer yes or no. Theoretically no, but if it is restored to the original firmware to remove the jailbreak. Also no way to tell where the iPhone came from (unless you know the owner) so it could have been hacked to unlock it so it would work.
    I'd say just find a non hacked iPhone for sale.
    If this iPhone works for you then great, but if it doesn't it would end up just being a big headache and a waste of money...
