N73 Camera problem auto-focus but no picture!!!!

Can somebody help it's driving me mental.
When I select camera mode I try to take a picture, It does the auto focus thing and a green square comes up with a beep sound but won't take a picture.
I've tried all modes,lighting brightness settings,manual settings etc, but all it does is the focus then beep thing.
Please please somebody help!!!

N73 Phone Memory Formats:
*#7780# format n73 softway means restore original settings but does not remove the calender contacts and data on the phone..
*#7370# format n73 hardway it does remove everything and install them from ROM..so you will loose data and calender contacts, messeges etc..
note: it will ask you for a password and its 12345 goodluck!

• If you have not already done so, restart Mac and
    try again. If the iSight still does not work, continue.
• If Apple's http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
   suggestions do not help you, (are you certain that you
   used the correct "reset" procedure?), yours is most likely a
   hardware problem that will require a professional fix.
   Unless you have a current backup, make one now.
Then use the final "Troubleshooting" suggestion:
"... contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service."
• If you want to try one more thing on your own first,
use Disk Utility to repair permissions. Then
download and apply the latest Combo Update for
your OS. Currently, the latest SL Combo is here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
• Repair permissions again immediately following the system restart
   that completes the Combo update.
Properly applying the Combo version of updates can sometimes correct software problems, but, if your trouble is caused by a hardware problem, there are no user serviceable parts of iSight.

N73 - camera problem

i have a problem with my n73 camera. when i open camera cover,and camera starts,at once it show "system error" message and it quit's operation. i had that problem three times now,this is third. last two times i did *#7370# reset code and camera worked fine for a while, but the problem comes back. i don't want to reset my phone over and over again,can you help me fix that? thanks in advance

If it works after a reset but stops again soon after, I suspect it may be due to an application you may be reinstalling on your phone after the reset. The challenge would be to figure out which application it may be. The good news is it is not hardware related as a hardware issue cannot be resolved with a reset.

Camera connected and controllable, but no picture in monitor when importing

I have a Sony DCR-TRV17E connected through firewire port on my powerbook, and I CAN control the camera using the capture controls, but no picture (or audio) appears in the iMovie monitor. Likewise when I click on import, either for a magicmovie or normal.
It's driving me mad, and all the help pages say is check this, check that, unplug and start again etc. None of which helps!
Thanks

Hi Ashley & Art et. al
May be time for my faulth finding list:
Mac:
- hardware
◊ Slow hard disk (fragmented: repair permissions, repair hard disk, use a faster hard disk)
◊ Disconnect all other ext devices (FW and USB) exept Camera (and keyboard + mouse) and try again
◊ Reset PRAM
◊ Bad RAM-chips
◊ disconnect Mac from powerline (not just switch off, really plug out) for a few minutes to reset FW ports
- software
◊ File-Vault is on - turn it off
◊ Something is occupying the CPU/System, like other programs, Internet etc.
◊ Do You have desktop pictures or screen or energy-savers active? Try turning them off.
◊ Updating - OS has to be a clean install - not an update eg from X.3.x to X.4.x (no good) OS X.4.0-5 needs a clean install to work (I use X.3.9)
◊ Updating QT and/or other updates (to 7 needs v6 to be cleaned out first) QT v.7.0.0-4 needs a clean install to work (I use 6.5.2)
◊ Have you tried the crazy fix: Open GarageBand, play a few notes, close it and reopen iMovie. The camera should import fine now. Sue/SDillini
◊ Running iDVD at the same time as iMovie can cause problems: (Lennart Thelander)
◊ If You also have installed FinalCut Express/pro there are possibly problems with this
iMovie:
◊ remove bookmarks in iMovie project
◊ Trash: com.apple.iMovie.plist and com.apple.iMovie3.plist : files (Xinram)
Connection:
◊ don’t Daisy chain Camcorder <--> external hard disk <--> Mac
◊ FW-wire cable, is it OK?
◊ USB/USB2 is NO GO !
Camera:
◊ The Camera is set to VTR ? (not as when You ”film” record with it)
◊ You may be need to go to the Camera menu and select digital out.
◊ defective camera TRY IT ON ANOTHER MAC ! (if the A/D chip in the camera is harmed then it will say in iMovie that the camera is connected and You can forward rep. backward the tape but there will be no picture or sound just the blue screen.
◊ Cheque the menu on Your Camera so that it communicates with the FW digitally to Your Mac
◊ Date and Time is correct on Your Camera ?
Tape:
◊ Drop outs on the miniDV-tape - make a camera to camera copy on a tape which You have previous recorded with a time code (dummy recording).
◊ Break in the time-code on the miniDV tape (make a camera to camera copy on a tape which is pre-recorded with nothing/anything so that the tape has a time-code from beginning to the end)
◊ If You recorded in LP-mode (90 min on a standard 60 min tape with 12-bit sound). Try to change in iMovie pref. to import but not as individual clips. If this doesn’t work You have to make a Camera to Camera copy with the receiving Camera set to SP-mode and 16-bit sound.

HT201401 iPhone 5 camera not auto focusing

Any ideas how to fix ?

I took my iPhone 5 into the apple store this afternoon and after confirming the auto focus wasn't working properly, they replaced my phone. New phone camera works perfectly.

Camera zoom auto focus

If I use one of the apps that does zooming will the autofocus lens of the 3GS improve the quality?

Not like you're wanting. The 'zoom' apps aren't the camera itself zooming. They zoom in on what image the camera is taking pictures of, which causes pixelation. The focus won't clear up the pixelation but it will make for a clearer pixelated picture. Sorry

Canon EF-S 18-55 random auto focus problem

Hello I have been working with Canon EF-S 18-55 NON IS lenes and have found a problem I can't seen to solve. The problem is that I do get auto focus but at certain points it will not focus. I have changed the board with a known good one, The motor assembly, The contacts with good looking ones from working units but not the contact strip as they look good. The assembly moves freely with little resistance. I have also seen this problem on IS versions too but mainly on the non IS versions. I'm looking for any other suggestion that might solve the problem.

Yes I do and have had very good success in repairing them but I have a few that just defy me and have this problem.

N73 Camera dissapointing, purple/pink bleaching

Hi folks, just spent a lot of money on a N73, when taking a picture on the main camera, once auto focus has fixed an image of a pale pink / purple appears which is way off the mark interms of true colour andquality. However all apeears ok as the captured image is then displayed. But upon uploading to my computer the image is again pink/purple in coloue especially on the white subject. I have tried 2 N73's and they are noth the same.
My ols N70 2m camera produced far superior pics than this.
Any one else experienced this and is there an firmware software upgrade available? as it stands the camera isn't worth using asnd wish i'd bought a sony erricson

You would think most of the reviewers are color-blind based on their enthusiastic write-ups on the Nokia N73 camera.
Besides the issue of compression, the camera's auto-white balance function also seems to be poor. If you want better looking images, manually select white balance - you'll find that even your outdoor shots will come out a little bit better - or try fixing white balance on your existing photos and you'll see remarkable improvement.
Unfortunately, it does not seem to be possible to have the camera set by default to a particular white-balance mode - every time you restart it is back to 'Auto' and the disappointing colors (black is nearly always off).
But the most frustrating thing of all (I'm actually willing to pardon the suboptimal colors) is the shutter lag. The bottom line is that either the processor or the S60 operating system is not up to the task of taking a standard snap-shot. The shutter lag on the camera (even if you choose images with less pixels) is huge. To see why it's probably a software/hardware issue, just look at how slow the phone is at opening most Java applications or even loading up the screen for a new SMS after you press a short-cut button.
There really are many excellent features on the N73, but as far as the camera is concerned, Nokia has over-promised and under-delivered.

Having trouble auto-focusing using the digital display.

My Rebel T3 seems to have problem auto-focusing indoors when using the digital display . Seems to work fine using the viewfinder.

Live View focusing is always going to be very slow. It is not just your camera.

BB Curve 8900 Camera Problem

Whenever I go to take a photo on my BlackBerry Curve 8900, the camera just freezes and won't let me do anything at all. Does this sound like I need to reinstall the OS? Thank you, Sam
In Thrust, I Trust

I have the same problem, whenever I open the camera, the camera screen is there, but the picture is black and my phone freezes. How did you reinstall the OS. I just updated my phone, restored it, and the camera still isn't working.

One day it just stopped focusing and the pictures are blurry. If I switch it to the front camera it works well and looks like it should but when I turn it back it goes back to being out of focus and I can't figure out how to fix it?

i installed ios 7.after that my primary cam, one day it just stopped focusing and the pictures are blurry. If I switch it to the front camera it works well and looks like it should but when I turn it back it goes back to being out of focus and I can't figure out how to fix it?

This advice will sound like a joke or prank, but believe me it worked on my iPhone 5 and my daughter's. The lens mechanism got stock on each of our iPhones. We found a post on these message boards that said to hold the iPhone about 6 inches above a table or counter top and drop it so that it lands flat on it's back. Now try the camera ...Fixed! It has been more than six months now and neither of our iPhones have ever experienced the problem again.
