Hi, this is amit from india. just started using iphone 4s. i am observing that when an incoming call comes, the phone smtimes shows two virtual buttons of red and green color so as to attend or reject the call. but smtimes it just shows green button with a slider to attend the call and there is no red button to reject the call. is it a bug or some setting?

Because it behaves differently depending on whether the phone is locked (in standby) or unlocked (in use) when the call comes in.

ISight : black or green picture

Hello,
on my mid-2007 20" imac, the integrated iSight doesn't work any more. All I get is a black picture (with iChat) or green picture (with Photo Booth). No error message saying the iSight is already in use. The green light on the right of the camera lights when expected. The iSight is seen in the USB device list. I've tried all the ideas found on this forum and the support section of Apple web site ... I've reset the SMC, unplugged all other USB devices ... still no picture. And obviously, it worked in the past, I have succesfully used it for a few iChat sessions.
I'm not quite sure it's a hardware problem, and fell a kind of bug due to some recent OS revision (10.4.10). Anyone having this felling ?
Regards,
Philippe.

Hello Philippe
Here are the solutions that help most iNtel Mac users who encounter black or green-screen problems. None are complicated, but the only way to find which one will work for you is to continue down the list until you find the one that fixes your Mac.
(1) Check your System Preferences as explained in this kbase article about Built-in iSight camera produces blue or green pictures.
(2) Aluminum iMac users who have not yet applied the iMac Software Update 1.1 should repair permissions (click here if you need help with permissions repair), apply the iMac 1.1 update, and repair permissions again. Then check to see if your iSight works correctly.
(3) If your software is up to date and your System Preferences are set correctly, try every suggestion re: Built-in iSight in the "How to Troubleshoot iSight" article.
Be sure to include the checks for whether the problem is "application-specific" and "user-specific".
If you need help creating a new user account to check whether your problem is "user-specific" during Troubleshooting, see this Help article.
(4) If resetting or the other suggestions do correct your problem, try the following:
• Backup your Home Folder, or at very least, your important files.
• Repair permissions.
• Then download and apply the Mac OS X 10.4.10 Combo Update v1.1 (iNtel).
• Finish with another Permissions Repair, and then check your iSight again.
Users have reported fixes to a variety of audio, video, connectivity, and software conflicts and unreliability issues after properly applying Combo Updates.
(5) Some iNtel Mac laptop users have also reported success after unplugging their Macs and leaving the battery out for half-an-hour to overnight. If none of the suggestions above corrects your problem, you might try disconnecting EVERYTHING, including power and peripherals, from your iMac for a while to see if that helps. However, nobody has yet reported that disconnecting helps anything but the laptop iNtel Macs.
(6) If none of these suggestions help, contact your retailer, Apple, or your Apple-Authorized Service Provider for professional repair.

Re: iSight : black or green picture

I'm experiencing a similar problem, although not QUITE the same. The green screen only happens in Photobooth. If I use the iSight for something like Skype or Yahoo, it works just fine.
Any suggestions on THAT?

Hello, jfoust
Because your problem is not EXACTLY the same, please start a new topic.
Your problem deserves the individual attention it will get in its own thread.
If you don't want to start a new thread, and if you haven't searched iSight discussions yet, you could try a search for "photo booth green screen" (without the quotation marks.) That search will return threads like this one that may obviate the need for you to post.

My Macbook Air won't come on - it just shows a picture of a folder with a question mark

My Mac was a blac screen when I came down this morning.
Icouldn't wake it up, so I decided to switch it off and on again.
Now it won't re-start it.It constantly displays a picture of a folder with a question mark across it.
Is this a bad sign?

You need to use the computer's USB thumbdrive or Lion's recovery partition(press Option at startup) to repair the internal drive or install a new OS; if the Disk Utility doesn't see the drive, it needs to be plugged back in or replaced.

ISight green light is on, Photobooth shows green screen

Yeah, I started up my computer today and for some reason the camera light is on but I'm not even using it. I tried opening Photobooth so that I could quit it, and maybe the camera would go off, but Photobooth just shows a blank, green screen.
Anyone got any solutions?

Hey,
I had this issue awhile back too, I had no idea what caused it. I'm not sure if this is a real fix but I ran AHT(Apple Hardware Test) and it didn't find any issues, but after the test completed I booted up into OS X and everything was fine.
Intel-based Macs: Starting up into Apple Hardware Test
I have no idea if this is an actual real fix, but you can give it a try.
Heres a forum thread with the same issue: iSight Problem
Good Luck!

I have restored my new replacement iPhone 5s from my latest iCloud back up. However my camera roll pictures are not displaying. Its not saying i don't have any pictures, it just shows empty white squares? How do I get my pictures back? Thanks!

I have restored my new replacement iPhone from my latest iCloud back up. However my camera roll pictures are not displaying. Its not saying I don't have any pictures in my camera roll, it has all the spaces for them, but it just shows empty white squares? How do I get my pictures back? Thanks!

It's difficult to say whether it's stuck or not as the time to restore a backup can depend on many factors. You'll have to decide when you think it's just not continuing. You could try turning the phone off (hold the power button until you see the red off slider, then slide to turn off), then back on to see if that would get it going again.
When you're convinced it's just hung, you can go back to settings and tap Stop Restoring iPhone to stop the restore. You'll then have to try restoring it again (Settings>General>Reset, tap Erase All Content and Settings, go through the setup screens and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup). Be sure it's connected to your charger and wifi while it's restoring the backup.
You might also try the approach posted here by ezjules: https://discussions.apple.com/message/19518589#19518589. This seems to have worked for some people who had trouble restoring their photos from an iCloud backup.

Double tap Home button and delete Camera app from multitask-list.
Do a
Reset: Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Note: You will not lose any data
If problem persist, make an appointment with genius bar for evaluation.

I also got Motion and can't figure out how to use it with Final Cut Pro X. Any help woud be great. Thanks

I have no idea what may have caused your MacBook to stop working, but from your description it kind of sounds like it may have started before you ran Software Update and installed the new Apps. Just the general slow feeling and bugginess is what tips me off. You said that you weren't sure if you had closed all open windows, that doesn't matter if the computer restarts itself. It automatically closes all other open applications when restarting.
As to your data being retrievable, if when you take it in they do a fresh install of the OS, then no, it will not be unless you want to pay several thousand dollars to a software retrieval company.
I am glad to hear that you have taken into the Apple Store to get it fixed, and that you have all of your purchased music backed up to your iPod. You should be able to just transfer it all back to iTunes once you get your computer back should it be necessary.
As a side note, the proper place for this topic would probably in the MacBook forums, not iTunes since there is no evidence that iTunes started the issue.

I just downloaded iPhoto 9.5 to replace my old ver. 7.x. Downloaded the library upgraded but have no idea where it installed as it is not listed in Applications. Opened iPhoto added my Library (12.5 GB) but iPhoto shows no pictures.

I just downloaded iPhoto 9.5 to replace my old ver. 7.x. Downloaded the library upgraded but have no idea where it installed as it is not listed in Applications. Opened iPhoto added my Library (12.5 GB) but iPhoto shows no pictures. In fact, iPhoto indicates that I have zero photos in the library while at the same time indicating the file size as 12.5 GB.

If your old iPhoto version was iPhoto 7, you need to run the iPhoto Library upgrader: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1523
It will install itself in the Utilities folder in your Applications folder.
Run it, and after that, you should be able to open your iPhoto Library with iPhoto '11.

one fine day yesterday, my i phone just hangup lost all contact detail. The screen only show a picture depicting cable connection to iTune. I have tried to restore iphone to factory setting but not working . May i know how to proceed to recover lost contacts.

I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

Connect it to the charger and let it charge for a while. Then try again. Never upgrade your phone without first connecting the charger. Don't let the battery go dead or the entire device could become disabled.
