Is it crashing at 'Rebuilding Library'? That would explain why your Camera is crashing too. If you had a Mac, you could just import & then delete your photos from Image Capture, iPhoto, or Aperture. On Windows I'm not sure where you can import as I dint have a windows machine in front of me but try looking through Camera Wizard app or Photo Gallery app for your camera, those applications should recognize the phone as a camera.
Then if you'd like you could always sync those photos back (in itunes you select Sync Photos)
Here is one article:
http://www.technixupdate.com/how-to-transfer-camera-roll-pictures-from-iphone-to -computer-automatically-automatically-sync-iphone-camera-pictures-with-windows-l ive-photo-gallery-on-windows/
However, while I suggest you import your photos (always good to have a copy!) you could just try Restore from Backup all over again & see if that resolves the issue. So in itunes, right click on phone, select restore from backup & then choose the backup that you made before the update. There should be a timestamp in the dropdown menu (the one without the timestamp is the most recent backup I believe, so that might not be the one you made pre update)
Let us know how it goes!

  • IPhone 3GS, photo app crashes after update to iOS 4.0.1

    After upgrading my 3GS to iOS 4.0.1, I can no longer use Apple's "photos" app. I start the app, it shows a blank page with pajama lines on it and then closes the app after maybe 20 seconds or so. It's worth mentioning that I have a lot of photos, ~15,000 of them, and most of them are both geocoded and with tagged faces. Anyone have an idea how to fix this?

    Try cutting down the number of photos you have stored on your phone (make sure they are backed up first). I say dwindle it down to a hundred. Just to see if it is because of too many pics for the app to go over, especially with the added data of face tag and geo location. You can always put them back on your phone if you still run into the same issue with far less pics. You also may want to make sure the app has been updated to be compatible with iOS4. Which app are you using by the way?

  • Third-Party Apps Crashing After Update

    After getting the new update for my 8GB iPod Touch, I discovered my third-party apps no longer worked--they would briefly seem to boot up before crashing to the desktop. I fixed this problem by restoring my iPod, reinstalling everything, resyncing music (which took several hours). But then when I connected my iPod Touch to charge it, it said it wasn't finished restoring it or something. I said to finish; it soon says the restoration failed with a maddeningly vague error message (-34), some of my third-party apps crash again, and all my music is gone. What is going on, and is Apple taking steps to fix this problem with the new OS? Is there any way to revert to OS3?

    Here is what I did & my phone now works fine:
    Ok.  I went back to the apple store.  They reloaded the IOS6 software from a computer they knew had a good version of the software and treated the phone as if it was a new phone.  We did not back it up from my pervious backups.  I then reloaded all the apps from the app store and not my computer.  My phone is working great now.  It appears I had a corrupted copy of the IOS 6 or a corrupted app that was causing the problem and it syncing just fine without the problem returning.

  • Why does my Ipod touch Music/Video apps crash after update to OS4

    Updated Ipod touch (64GB) yesterday to OS4. Today I cant run the Music or the Video apps. They will LOAD, but after 3 seconds, the crash. Any ideas?
    Ive tried to do the reboot thing (DFU??) that I saw in another post but same issue.
    Tried a search several times but have not seen any posts so far with this particular issue.

    I'm having the same issue as well, I'm currently at work so as of right now I can't try to restore mine, but the strange thing with mine is that I updated mine the day the iOS 4.0 came out and had no problems until last night. Now the music and video sections keep crashing after just a few seconds. Also all my Podcast are gone, the only things missing and I even re-downloaded them last night and they're still gone.

  • Apps crashing after update to 4.3.3

    After updating to iOS 4.3.3 all apps (both payware and freeware) crash apon opening. Not even facebook seems to work
    Any ideas, of what happened and maybe how to solve the problem?

    Thanks Paul for your response.
    This situation may be multi-factorial.  My experience keeps reverting back to Dell's issue with their introduction of the XPS Tower - and the USB ports. 
    I examined very carefully the USB tethering devices with a magnifying glass earlier today.  This revealed a possible change in the "teeth" configuration from the 2010 products and the 2011 products. 
    Using this premise - I have had yet to have "one iphone4 tethered MacBook crash" today caused by as a result of a unknown UUID.
    Simplistic - maybe - hey what ever works.  The curious thing is that I am not using any 3rd party apps - as I want to reduce the variables to be considered.
    Someday I will get my iTunes back.  I am really concerned about interfacing my Airport Time Capsule, which I purchased in 2010 also.
    Thanks again for your kind advice.  I am a novice - but this time I am determined to do it right.
    Respectfully submitted,

  • Why are several Apple apps crashing after update to IOS5? Safari, Appstore and iBooks all crash Frequently :-(

    Sine I updated to IOS 5.0.1 my iPad(version 1) crashes quite often.
    Especially when using Safari, Ibooks and Appstore.
    It is quite frustrating and I have  feeling that there are memory leaks.
    Would be good to know if Apple are working on these problems.

    Well, I have an iPad 2 3G 32GB end I can say ios 5 is PERFECT, really never seen an appstore app crashing!(200 apps + games installed), the only system app crashing sometimes is Safari, very rarely.
    Os works very fast, notification center is awsome, the battery is good.
    Its perfect!
    iOS 5 on the iPad 1 of ipad different story, AppStore apps crashing all the time, settings apps crashing, reminders crashing. bad Battery 3-4 h! VERY slow.Rubbish!
    I guess what I'm trying to say is, the old ipad its slow end crashes, and so, if you want better, you upgrade.

  • IMovie App Crashes after Update on my iPhone

    I recently received an update for the iMovie app.  I updated the app and the icon looks a bit awkward.  When I launched it to check out the feature, it suddenly crashed and took me back to the home screen.  I uninstalled and reinstalled the app and no luck.  Continues to do the same.  When I double-tap the Home button my phone, it shows the iMovie active.  When I select it, it crashes again.  So I was searching for the app on the iTunes Store and somehow it doesn't appear anywhere.  Apple - what's going on?  I love this app a lot and I don't want to lose this.  Please help us and fix this situation.

    The app finally came back to the App Store this morning and I was able to re-download.  I installed it on my iPhone and it works now.  It didn't crash or glitch as it did yesterday.  I'm a happy camper now.  I can edit a few movie clips (from my camera roll) and put them together to upload to YouTube.  Woo-hoo!! :)

  • Voice memos app crashing after updating to iOS 8

    After upgrading to iOS 8 today, when I launch the Voice Memos app, it attempts to re-index the memos and then in the middle of the process, it crashes. When I re-launch the app, it simply says "No Recordings".
    I was really distressed, because I had some adorable recordings of my 3 year old that I didn't think I had backed up yet. I restarted the phone and it tried to index again and crashed.
    If you run across this issue, don't panic - they are still on your file system on your phone. Apple will hopefully fix the bug soon. In the meanwhile, to retrieve them, you can use a program that can read your iphone's file system. I used a tool that turned up after I did a search "download iphone file system reader ifun".
    After connecting the phone, I went to the leftmost tab and right-clicked "Voice Memos". There is an option there to copy the files to the computer. After they all copy, try dragging the files into iTunes and you should hear all the memos again.
    Good luck!

    Yes. Me as well. Did a factory reset on my iPad 3 (because iOS 8 killed speed and was crashing) Now I need to do some reinstalls. When I hit the cloud download icon it spins for a second then goes back to the reinstall cloud icon. Nothing!!

  • Apps crashing after update

    all I can notice is after I updated the creative cloud. Ai etc start to open but unexceptionally quit. Desktop and my laptop are doing this.......and I have multiple jobs to do.

    Without proper system info and details like the crash logs nobody can tell you much.

    My problem started after installing "smartsync app" which is supposed to sync my phone with the profilepage photos of my friends in facebook. All my apps crashed after using them for awhile.While using my apps, they will black out after a little while and the phone returns to the starting page. I have removed the smartsync app but my phone still behaves the same way. At the same time the dates that accompany my messages changed to another language. How can these be rectified?

    Eek.  Sounds like something in the app caused some serious software issues.  You can try a hard reset, but I'd imagine you're probably going to have to do an iTunes restore to get it running right again.

  • No 4G, Goggle location service and Amazon app crashes after 10/13 update.

  • Facebook app is crashing after updating to new IOS

    facebook app is crashing after updating to new IOS

    Yes, i also tried deleting and again downloading that app today. But still it doesn't works.

  • HT204204 My phone crashed after updating it to IOS 8. I can't use it cause its stucked on the start up menu, the apple logo with black background.

    Hi to all,
    I hope someone can help me. My phone crashed after updating it to IOS 8.3. I can't use it cause its stucked on the start up menu, the apple logo with black background. Even when I restart my phone, it is still stuck on the start up menu, the black background with apple logo in the middle.

    Slone,
    I finally decided to turn this annoyance into an opportunity.  After a lot of experimenting I found that my iPad was just fine under 7.1 if I simply restored it as new.  I have a lot of time on my hands and I had 1424 apps on my iPad!  This is why every attempt to restore took so long.
    I decided to restore as new, spend a day restoring the apps I really used.  Doing so gave me a quick iPad with only bout a quarter of the storage used.
    Granted it was a pain in the arse, but I wrote it off as in the old days when you had to do this with windows 95 just to keep a stable system.
    I DO have some data in a few files of the now unused backup but a quick google search finds a couple Mac programs out there that will allow you go extract audio recordings, app data files etc. from the backup.  I'll do that someday if I even miss the files I've probably forgotten that are there.
    Anyway, there was nothing wrong with my hardware.  I think there were just some troublesome setup items that 7.1 didn't like.  Once set up as new, the ipad was fine.
    Good luck!

  • Photo.app crashes. Can not delete or sync photos. Stuck!

    On my iPhone 3GS, iOS 4.1:
    Photo.app crashes whenever i try to delete certain photos from my camera roll. It freezes and I have to exit the app with the front botton. I have the crash logs on my computer.
    The iPhone appears in iTunes, however photos do not sync.
    The iPhone does NOT appear in Image Capture, iPhoto, or other photo importing programs.
    Now I am really stuck - ! I have no way to delete the (presumably corrupted) photos from my iPhone!
    If I "Erase all content and settings" from the iPhone, it once again appears (empty) in Image Capture. However, if I then restore the iPhone from a backup, the photo roll is restored and it has the same problem. If I do not restore the iPhone, I lose all my apps, contact info, etc.
    I am an Apple developer (MacOS, iOS) so I have expert skills tackling problems like this, but now I'm stumped!

    I had the same problem and spent 4 hours troubleshooting with Apple Tech Support. We uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes, drivers and checked every setting that had anything to do with my iPhone. As usual I was told that I need to restore my phone which is always my last option. I actually read your post and began to panic as it became clear that even after a reset I would get the same photos back when I synched and restored. Last time that I restored to new it took me 3 solid hours to tweak my phone back to the way it was. When I realized that I was basically screwed and was going to lose my photos I began to email them to myself one at a time. When I got to one picture I discovered that I had found the corrupt photo. I was not able to send it as it turned into a question mark when I tried to send to myself. I tried to delete 50 times but it froze my phone each time and wouldnt remove itself from my camera roll. I tried to select photos but each time that photo appeared in the window the app crashed and shut itself down. I had scheduled an appointment with the genious bar and figured I would call tech suoport one last time before I went through that nightmare and while I was on hold I pluged my phone into my computere and tried to delete the phote while plugged into my laptop and out of nowhere an error window popped up notifying me that my photo app experienced an error and would repair itself which within four seconds it did and the corrupt photo dissapeared. I cant tell you how relieived I was and my phone works perfectly well now. I tried to explain the results to the tech that finally answered but he didn't seem to care that much. I hope this works for you next time.

  • IPad photo app crashes when zooming into pictures

    I have about 15 GB of photos on this iPad- and the photo app crashes any time I try to pinch to zoom into a picture. anyone else having this problem? what's the deal? works sometimes but crashes 2 out of three times.

    Did you get any fruitful answers from an Apple Genius? Sure wouldn't mind saving myself a trip. Thanks.
    Nutshell:
    I've had two iPads thus far where I cannot use the Photos app because anytime I scroll it crashes.
    I had my first iPad replaced since it couldn't play any video without the entire machine locking up and requiring a forced restart. (see http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11320267&#11320267 ) The Photos app on my first iPad would also crash anytime I attempted to scroll through my photos.
    Now, the Photos app on my second, replacement iPad is behaving the same way, it always crashes when I scroll.
    Observations:
    • I didn't put any of the same photos back on my replacement iPad, I started with an empty Photos app which ever since only contains images that I've saved to the Photos app from other apps on the iPad, e.g. screenshots, saving images from Safari, Mail, etc.
    • I did test drive the Photos app after having saved only a handful of images ( ≈ 30 imgs) and was happy to see that it DID NOT crash. Unfortunately it wasn't long after, having had saved a handful or so more images to the photo library that the app again began to crash anytime I would begin scrolling down through images.
