Photo editor app now available but doesn't work, after latest What's New update

hi all
odd experience what I wanted to highlight with you all.
I've just had an updated (this morning) to What's New build 3.0.A.0.2
After installing this patch / update, I was then told that "Photo Editor" was available to download. Build is 5.0.A.0.12
As far as I'm concerned I've not had this app on my phone before - checking in system apps reveals this is a fresh install, rather than an update to an existing app.
Also, I've not worked out how to run it, as there's no app shortcut on my homescreen. The app is not visible in the app picklist (when adding new items to my homescreens) either. Nor is the app in the main app list (accessed with the 6 dots button in the middle of the permanent shortcut panel on the homescreen).
I've even tried using a very useful app "quick shortcut maker" and although I can find photo editor in its activity list, when i test the generated shortcut, I get "unfortunately, photo editor has stopped".
Any ideas?
I do have some apps disabled, so does photo editor have any known dependencies?
EDIT: I've tried clearing photo editor data and restarting - no change.
Cheers,
Gary

Hi MyAliasIsGary 
Photo Editor is a system app only, it is available for use when editing photo's through your Album or Photo's app. For example, if you go into Album > tap on a photo > tap the icon at the bottom that looks like a pencil on paper > tap Photo editor.

  • IMessage doesn't work after the installation of the update 5.1

    iMessage doesn't work after the installation of the update 5.1

    I am unsure whether my issue relates to updating to OS5.1 but seems coincidental that I have only had the problem for the last few days since updating.
    I can use iMessage without a problem although some messages are delayed in being sent or received recently. However, I can no longer send MMS picture messages. I have spoken to my provider who has been through all their relevant settings checks. I have restarted the phone (iPhone 3GS), I have tried turning off iMessage to send MMS but still nothing works.
    I've had no issue sending MMS picture messages since owning the phone right up until a few days ago.
    Has anyone else experienced this or does anyone have any suggestions on anything else I can try please?
    Thanks

  • Touch ID doesn't work after ios 7.1.1 update

    Touch id doesn't work after ios 7.1.1 update..
    Why????

    After IOS update, you first have to use passcode.
    Passcode is needed when
    After restarting your iPhone 5s
    When more than 48 hours have elapsed from the last time you unlocked your iPhone 5s
    To enter the Touch ID & Passcode setting

  • Imessage doesn't work after the installation of the update 6.0

    imessage doesn't work after the installation of the update 6.0

    iMessage will not work until it's activated.
    Switch iMessage OFF. Double tap Home button and delete Messages in multitask-bar.
    Do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears, ignore the Slide to Power Off that appears)
    Note: You will not lose any data.
    Switch iMessage back ON.

  • [iPhone] Calc.app builds fine, but doesn't work as intended

    Hi,
    Trying the Calc example in "Xcode Quick Tour for iPhone OS", I end up with an application that builds and launches fine in the iPhone Simulator, but that doesn't work.
    Did anyone try this example and did it work for you ?
    Here is what I observed :
    When I press a digit, the displayField's value isn't changed.
    Going in debug, I can see that the instance of the Calculator class does receive a message with the "input" selector and with the parameter "character" worth the digit that I pressed. The [_diplay appendString:character], but _display seems to keep being "nil".
    Any idea ?
    Many thanks in advance for your help,
    J.

    The Calc example worked well for me. The only bugginess I found was that if the text field is forced to reduce it's font size it never gets reset to the original size.
    Assuming you didn't touch the Calculator class files it's probably something simple. Check the IB connections, especially the connection between the displayField outlet and the UITextField. Maybe put a NSLog in the press method to check \[_calculator display\]. Of course if your Calculator class files are different from mine all bets are off, so if you don't have any luck we'll need to compare those.

  • Apps and media library doesn't work after software...

    Hey guys!
    Few days ago I updated my C3-00's software and my apps (Opera Mini and Facebook) doesn't work anymore. I tried reinstalling Opera but when I try to open it it says Opening Application and immediately after that Closing application (same with Facebook client).  
    My second problem is that my media library is messing with me because it maps the song artist and titles (484 songs) and only the few ones within a folder is played over and over. E.g. I try to play Queen - I want it all but Pendulum is played besides that.
    Thank for helping

    If reset doesn't work, try and force the iPad into Recovery Mode.
    Recovery Mode
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

  • Video camera doesn't work after ios7... Update! This *****!

    ***? Updated to iOS 7, video doesn't work when I use camera ap!

    Nice one, Apple. Swipe to change between camera and video and disable tapping on the word "video" because tapping makes sense and is easy enough for even a 5 year old to understand. Don't be Microsoft and make things harder to use. Keep the swipe if it satisfies your sense of feeling all modern and relevant, but put back the tap on "camera" and "video" so we don't have to Google it to figure it out and leave irate notes in your product forums. Missed a really cute video of my toddler singing thanks to you.

    Try repairing permissions with Applications -> Utilities -> Disk Utility.
    There select First Aid.  After that select the hard drive within Disk Utility's window.  Finally click on the button that says Repair Permissions.  A reboot may be necessary to finish the work when it is done.
    Ignore any errors reported.

  • New laptop & OS (Win8); have Pro 7 which doesn't work...what do I update to?

    I have a new laptop with Windows 8 and have tried to download Acrobat Pro Ver 7, which doesn't work on Win 8 as I've found out.  What do I need to update to for a compatible program?  Do I have to buy an entirely new product or can I just upgrade?

    Thanks Klaus,
    It's a long time since I installed a new OS but I thought you had to go through registration before it would work. You certainly have to supply your name and address, and then it prompts you to register. Will it let you skip that step?
    If the new owner can do that, why would he need the install disks? And how do I get through to the right person at Apple?

  • How can add captions or title to a picture now that iPhoto doesn't work after updating to iOS 8.

    I Have updated to iOS 8 and iPhoto is dismissed. How can add a caption /title (not in the image) like I was used with iPhoto? Photos has not this feature.
    please, could anyone help me. I'm a real beginner. Thanks,

    The photos.app does not (yet) have the option to add captions or tags. It is not possible right now. You can however search for the captions you added previously using the search field.  You can also search for album names.  So, as a work-around, put photos that should have the same caption into an album with a name like the caption.
    See:  Migrating from iPhoto for iOS to Photos on iOS 8
    You may want to send feedback to Apple, that captions and tags are essential and need to be added in an update. Use this form:   Apple - iPhoto - Feedback

  • I updated new iPhone 6 to iOS 8.0.2 and now Touch ID doesn't work...what gives?

    I thought they fixed this bug???

    I have the same trouble with my 3 weeks old iPhone 6+. After update to the last iOS, touch ID doesn't respond anymore.
    I delete my fingers print and now I'm unable to set new one.
    The Apple Shop of my place in Yogyakarta (Indonesia) says they didn't gave any service for iPhone (!!!) so I contact the Apple Support online who advise me to restore it. I did, but it didn't solve the problem: Touch ID still not responding.
    At this point I don't know anymore what to do...

  • This worked just fine in Acrobat Pro 9 but doesn't work in X.  What gives?

    I hate Acrobat X.  I am getting stupid errors and am missing all sorts of metadata functionality.  I can't even browse (nevermind edit) metadata in Explorer, and see no solution for it anywhere on the net.
    I used this javascript in Acrobat 9 with NO PROBLEMS.  In Acrobat X  I get Syntax error missing ( before condition 8: on row 9 and can't proceed.  So what is different about Javascript in 9 that changed in X, and where do I find these changes?
    /* Filename to metadata (title, author) */
    var fname = this.documentFileName;
    var deliminator = " - "
    var lookfor = fname.lastIndexOf(deliminator);
    // Splice components
    if lookfor = -1
    var string1 = fname.slice(lookfor + deliminator.length, fname.length).replace(/.pdf/gi, "")
    else
    var string1 = fname.slice(fname, lookfor)
    var string2 = fname.slice(lookfor + deliminator.length, fname.length).replace(/.pdf/gi, "")
    // Insert values
    this.info.Title = string1
    this.info.Author = string2

    In Acrobat 9, you could have a folder of pdf files in Windows Explorer.  You could see all of the metadata for those files in Explorer if you set explorer to show those fields.  You could sort on any of those fields so that you could group the files by the metadata.  You could also easily see which files were lacking in metadata, rather than having to open each file to determine whether it had metadata.
    In Acrobat 9, you could right click on a pdf file in Windows Explorer and enter the metadata.  While the file itself was closed.  Saved the steps of opening the file, going to file properties, clicking on save, clicking on close file and clicking to confirm to save the changes.  Something like nine or more clicks saved to change metadata, down to one or two.
    In Acrobat X, you can no longer display any of the metadata fields in Windows Explorer.  You can no longer right click to edit the metadata of a pdf file.
    I would like both of these functions back.  it is a lifesaver if you have repetitive stress.
