N95 Camera Stopped Working

Hi,
My camera has stopped working on my phone.
When I press the capture button it goes green for
autofocus, but just makes a click and doesn't take
a picture.
The video function works, and the secondary camera works,
but my main camera just won't take pictures.
Anyone else experienced this or got any idea?
Many Thanks.
Andy

That is almost certainly a hardware problem
I'm afraid you need to take the phone to a service centre where they're probably going to have to send it away for repair which could mean 2 or more weeks without your N95

    Hi there Fgonzalez2015,
    You may find the camera troubleshooting steps in the article below helpful.
    Get help with the camera on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    You see a closed lens or black screen
    If you see a closed lens or black screen when you open the Camera app, try these steps:
    Make sure that there’s nothing blocking the camera lens. If you’re using a case, try removing it.
    Force the app to close, then open the Camera app again.
    Restart your device, then open the Camera app again.
    If your device has a front and rear camera, try both cameras by tapping the camera swap icon . If you see the closed lens or black screen on only one camera, take your device to an Apple Retail Store or Authorized Service Provider for more help.

  • My camera stopped working, I get a blank screen. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    My ipad3 is a couple of months old and the camera stopped working. When I select the camera app I get a blank screen. I can't do anything but close the app. Has anyone else experienced this? How can I correct?
    Thanks,
    Jojora

    When you say that you can close it are you closing the app this way?
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button when you are done.

  • Photo Booth Camera stopped working

    When I installed the OS from the installs CD and launched the computer the photobooth built in camera turned on. As soon as I installed the files from choosing software update the camera stopped working. Is anyone else having this problem? If so how do I fix it?
    Seems like a driver or software conflict.

    Found out that the problem occurrs when I hook my Canopus ADVC Analog to Digital box. For some reason it turns off my built in photobooth camera.

  • Camera stopped working in all applications on my new MacBook Air 10.8.5 Any help?

    My mid 2013 new MacBook Air camera stopped working in all applications, facetime, photobooth and skype. It says camera not found. Does anyone have a solution for this problem? Thanks!

    I have figured it out! You just have to install the new plug in to your macbook.
    Download  the AppleCamera.plugin provided.
    Click on go in the finder menu, select go to golder and paste in /Library/CoreMediaIO/Plug-Ins/DAL/ ,
    move that item, AppleCamera.plugin, to the trash
    Go to your downloads folder and copy the new AppleCamera.plugin, then paste it in the folder where the old one was.
    It works

  • Macbook Air 13" Camera stops working after a few hours. Needs Restart to be functioning again. How do I fix this?

    Hello!
    The camera stops working. Not detected by any program (Facetime, Skype, Hangouts, Zoom). This happens usually after a few hours of work or after the computer sleeps. To make the webcam function again I need to restart.
    Any suggestions?

    Why does that seem likely to be a hardware issue? How did you come to that conclusion? Do you know something about this issue that indicates that? (I realise that this might sound short and rude - I am not trying to be rude here - just to understand) My thought is that conventional troubleshooting would say that this is a software issue because it is fixed with a restart.
    I also have this problem. The camera quits working after some time - I have not been able to make it stop working. Sometimes it is after I suspend the computer (close the lid) other times it still works.
    All I know is that intermittently my camera stops working and it is a big pain to have to reboot whenever I am going have a video chat.
    Anyone got any solutions, I'm not covered by applecare so would rather try and fix it myself if possible?

    See this thread:

    FIX: 
    1. You need Time Machine
    2. Go to folder /Library/CoreMediaIO/Plug-Ins/DAL/
    3. Copy AppleCamera.plugin to good place (usb memory stick is the best place).
    4. Go to Time machine in date that skype work fine.
    5. Change AppleCamera.plugin with file from Time Machine
    6. Restart system, Now skype need to work with camera.
    If that doesnt pass,

    Hi Midnightbrat,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The troubleshooting steps for the camera on the iPad are similar to the iPhone:  I've highlighted the pertinent steps below:
    Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
    Camera
    If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
    If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tapping Settings > General > Restrictions.
    Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
    Third-party cases can interfere with the autofocus/exposure feature and the flash; try removing the case if you have image-quality issues with photos.
    Try turning the iPad off and then back on.
    Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
    Try switching between the front and the back cameras to verify if the issue persists on both.
    I hope this information helps ....
    Have a great day!

  • Web cam stopped working with Windows 7 (but works fine with Ubuntu Live CD).

    Since two days my web cam stopped working. I am using Windows 7 64 bit and I have a Toshiba L505d S5992. It does not show in Device Manager and Windows Update doesn't recognize it, manually I can not install it, so my best guess it was broken.
    But then I tried the LiveDVD of Ubuntu 10.10 (64 bit) and it recognized immediately my web cam and the blue light came on. I have no clue what happened with Windows 7 but it's getting very frustrating.
    Any help would be very welcome at this point.

    Download the webcam application for your unit from this website.
    Uninstall it on the programs and features then installed the downloaded webcam application.
    Hope this will help you solve the issue.

  • HT1459 4th Generation iPod: camera stopped working; I touch the icon, the screen goes blank navy blue. What do I do?

    4th Generation iPod: camera stopped working; I touch the icon, the screen goes blank navy blue. What do I do?

    Have you tried closing the Camera app completely and seeing if it works when you re-open the app ? From the home screen (i.e. not with Camera '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 you could 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 equivalent of a reboot.

  • After update to 11.2.202.228 mz USB 1.1 web cam stop working

    Hi,
    I have a camera from MediaTech company, it is written on it MT400 and serial number 2604050599. Before latest update it works, after install newest version of Flash Player it stop working. I tested it on http://testmycam.com as one of Adobe employee advices on forum but I have only black rectangle. On top left corner of this rectangle it is written Camera: USB PC Camera (SN9C 102) , FPS 10. I disabled Hardware acceleration but problem remains. 
    As I remember this camera is USB 1.1. Does new Flash Version support USB 1.1?
    I have checked on Device Manager on my Windows XP Home Edition 2002 Version with SP3 device driver version it is written:
    Manufacturer : Sonix
    Driver date: 2004-04-02 (I can't find newer drivers on web )
    Driver version: 4.6.6.1
    Is it bug or Flash Player stops supporting such devices?
    Regards

    I pressed Allow, before pressing Allow background was grey, after Allow
    it gets black. I see the name of this camera on list. I also try another
    camera from Logitech (I can't remember what name was it, but one of the
    newest) and everything works which suggest it is strictly related with
    this specific camera which I'm using.
    Regards
