Photo App Keeps Crashing

I took a picture with the camera app and my phone froze. I rebooted it and now when I open the Photos app it crashes when I open an album. Help!

I've been having the same problem with my iPhone 4S. I went to an Apple Store last week and they said just to restore the software to a previous backup. This did the trick but last night my Photos app started crashing again (and thus when I take a picture the Camera app crashes because it can't save the picture).
I have a hunch that the problem has to do with using the camera from the lock screen. Whenever my Photos app has started to crash it's been when I've been using the Camera directly from the lock screen. The Photos app is supposed to block access to you previously taken pictures but I guess if I do it too much it makes the app not work. Did you all have this occur from using the camera from the lock screen too?
Anyways, you can fix the Photos app by restoring your iPhone to a previous backup that took place before you started having the problem. If you backup your iPhone while it has the problem and then restore your phone with that backup, the app still won't work. I'm going to avoid using my camera from the lock screen from now on, and hopefully Apple will release an update of iOS 5 that will correct this problem. Hope this helps!

Photo app keeps crashing on new ipad mini retina

When clicking on the share button in the photos app it is very, very slow to load. My iPhone 4S loads faster than the new ipad mini then the photo app will crash.
Any ideas? Is it an ios 7 bug?

It's probably because you don't have enough storage to add all the photos. This happened to me too last week, but I (finally) figured it out. I have many apps and photos on my iPad, so my storage was low. I deleted a few things, and it worked perfectly fine!! Hope this is the same case for you

Photos App keeps crashing, won´t open and I can´t view my photos anymore

Please HELP! The new Photos App got installed and now everytime I try to open it, it crashes and I don´t know how to solve this!
I used to work with a shared library between iPhoto and Aperture but most of the time I used Aperture, but when I assigned the shared library to the new Photos App, overtime I try to open the app, after 5 seconds it crashes!
I used the Ctrl+Alt thing with the Aperture to keep seeing my photos but as I understand, nothing I do in terms of modifying and updating (adding photos and stuff) the library, it does not update the original library because it is already working with the app that keeps crashing down.
What do I do??? How can I get the Photos App to work?
PLEASE I´M DESPERATE

HI,
Maybe try it this way this is what I did with mine because I did not migrate and didn't know about that either.
Photos application for Mac Instructions that might help!
On your iPad,iPhone keep the iCloud on in settings for Photos.
if you have not opened the New Photos application yet to have it transfer your photos from iPhoto let it Transfer the Pictures.
once you have all the pictures from iPhoto to Photos then in Photos go to Preferences
there is general and iCloud tab and go to the iCloud and only uncheck the iCloud button that will make it so it doesn't sync with your iPhone and iPad for Photos.
Then in Photos go up to View and press show sidebar because with that view you can move your pictures easier to albums snd delete or move any pictures or make new albums
For Duplicates if you have a big pile in a row and I mean not like every other picture of the same pictures on the keyboard Hold down the shift button. or the other way is to Hold down the Command buttom that is right by the space bar then on the trackpad or mouse click once on the picture you want to delete and do a bunch at a time then on the last picture of that pile either right click the picture and delete or go up to the edit button which is next to file on the top left and click delete in edit.
when you are all done with moving around your pictures or whatever go back to Preferences and turn on iCloud and make sure you have the optimize Mac Storage and then you are done! I hope this makes sense and works for you! here are the 2 pictures I'm talking about in settings.

Camera and Photos app keeps crashing!!!

I had no problems last week until yesterday...i even did a clean restore but still the camera and photos app tend to crash
it keeps stating "Please Wait" Updating Library...
and the bar reaches up to about 30% loading and then crashes....anybody else having these problems on their 3gs?

This means the answer is no - a clean restore does not mean you restored your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup. If there is a problem with your iPhone's backup, restoring from the backup will also restore the problem.
All photos and/or video in your iPhone's Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera. Not a good idea to depend on your iPhone and your iPhone's backup alone for this data in the event your iPhone is lost or stolen and it is not replaced with another iPhone, or there is a hardware problem with your iPhone.
I always import all photos and videos captured by my iPhone with my computer ASAP as with any other digital camera and as with any other digital camera, I delete the photos and videos from the camera after the import process is complete. This also helps to keep the iPhone's backup time to a minimum, provides me a copy of this data on my computer for viewing along with including this data with my computer's backup along with all other important data, and if I want any of the imported photos and videos available on my iPhone for viewing, I can transfer the photos and videos from my computer to my iPhone via the iTunes sync process as with any other photos/video.
Try importing the photos/videos from your iPhone's Camera Roll followed by deleting the photos/videos from the Camera Roll after the import process is complete. If no change after doing so, restore your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup.

Photo app keeps crashing when I try to delete a picture.

I have an iPad Mini 16GB WiFi and I have no memory left and when I try to delete a picture the Photo App crashes, I've tried Rebooting my device several times. Do you know what I could do?

i think.... It is crashing because it has no memory to move around. suggest - resync with your 'puter. on the photos tab, do not reload (sync0 a bunch of the existing photos, and deal with them - deleting or otherwise - on you computer.
Otherwise - you have no option but to remove stuff from the pad - music, apps, videos etc to give you enough space to move.

Why does my Photos App keep crashing?

I have a 4G Ipod Touch. 4 or 5 days ago I went to upload a picture to my facebook using the Facebook App, and when I clicked upload from library, the app crashed. I tried it again, and it crashed again. I then closed out of my Facebook App and tried opening my Photos App (The one that comes pre-loaded) and I can get to the albums, which shows Photo Stream or Camera Roll, and when I click on one or the other, the app crashes. I've tried restarting my ipod, didn't work. I just restored my ipod, and it didn't work either. This is really frusterating me, can anyone help please?

Go over to the Facebook support site and report the problem there.

IOS 8 Photos App keeps crashing...What to do???

As soon as i open the iOS 8 Camera Roll / Gallery photos app, it just crashes, What could i do to ???

Try a Restart. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Resetting your settings You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
Resetting your device Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

Can you start Firefox in [[Safe mode]] ?
You can also do a clean reinstall and download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
You can initially skip the step to create a new profile, that may not necessary for this issue.

Why does my bridge photo downloader keep crashing

Hello, I'm running Adobe CS5 on a Mac OS X 10.6. For some reason my bridge photo downloader keeps crashing in the middle of trying to import pictures from my iphone camera. Is this something to do with iphoto preferences maybe? I believe I've set my Bridge as the default photo importer because that's the program that opens as soon as I plug a camera into the computer and it worked fine for the first few times but has suddenly developed this crashing problem.
Thank you very much for any help or suggestions.

Apps keep crashing after upgrade to ios 7 ipad2

After upgrading to ios 7 most of my apps keep crashing on ipad2 why? Do i need to re-install them? Please help

i am having the same experience (as well as several other problems) since installing iOS7 on my iPad2. The apps briefly appear to open when I tap their icons, but then disappear. double tapping the Home key to bring up the multi-tasking view idicates that the apps are running in the background but, I cannot access them.
This fiasco began because I was unable to login to my One-to-One account after the iOS7 update. I spent 4 hrs on the phone last night, with 4 different people from Apple support, restoring the iPad to factory settings & then restoring the image from my iCloud backup, only to end up with the situation described above. And I still can't login to my One-to-One account, plus I amnow also unable to access the iTunes store. I am sure there are other problems that I have yet to discover.
This has been such a "Windows" experience that I find myself wondering if Apple truly has lost its mojo & mystique. Are their pretty products worth their premium prices? More importantly, are they worth the frustration I experience, & the time that lost from my life, in trying to resolve problems with their"improvements". If asked today, my answer would be a very loud & resounding "NO"!!!!!

My apps keep crashing after the 7.1 update. Help, please?

After the update, I have noticed that my apps keep crashing even after I have updated the said apps. It's getting worse and, frankly, very annoying. How do I resolve this issue? Please help.

Hello Mona269,
It sounds like your apps are quitting unexpectedly quitting. I recommend starting by closing all the running apps on the phone:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that and restart the phone and test the apps again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

IOS 7.06 my photos app always crashing

iOS 7.06 my photos app always crashing, how can i fix it ?

You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
Try again to see if the problem persists.
