PowerShot SD1300IS has dark blurry spot on inside lens, shows up on picture. What to do?

When I zoom in the dark blurry spot expands.  Is there anyway to get rid of it?  i looked on Youtube but taking the camera apart looks pretty complicated.  What is the source of the spot as it seems to be a closed system?  Please advise.

Hello Magoose,
From what you describe of this issue it sounds as though there is either something either on the lens or embedded inside the lens.  If cleaning the lens with a cleaning kit does not resolve the issue then you may need to consider sending this to Canon for evaluation.  We do not recommend that you attempt the repair yourself.
To arrange for service, or to contact Canon directly, please visit the service and support section on our web site at your earliest convenience.  You can arrive directly there through this Link.

    I want to at least slow the cracking and bleeding of the LCD/ pixels

    You cannot slow the cracking, etc., but you can take it to an Apple store genius bar and have the technicians look at it and give you an estimate for a screen replacement.

  • My camera has a black screen and I can't see the picture, what's wrong.

    Just went to use the camera and it comes on with a black screen.  How do Ifix something that I am not sure what's wrong.... PLEASE HELP !!!!!
    This is a brand new gift to me

    Or try this if the reset doesn't work.
    Quit the app completely and restart the iPad. 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 or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • Blurry spots on screen

    I have blurry spots all over inside my computer screen-giving a slightly blurred effect. It is not on my screen-i checked to see if the glass was smudged or dirty and is not. can someone help me fix this problem?

    Wireless router would not affect the LCD panel.
    My 12" started to develop blurry/bright white patches on the display. Luckily I was under Applecare and Apple replaced the LCD panel.
    If you haven't, try resetting the PMU (this will also reset the PRAM). To do so, hold down:
    Shift + Control + Option and press the Power button. Do this while the computer is off. Doing this while the computer is on will force it to do a hard shutdown.
    Otherwise, see if the issue happens on an external display is possible, although in this case I don't think it will since it does not sound like a typical logicboard issue...

  • My iPad 2 screen has a faded spot at the bottom near the home key

    Hi All,
         My iPad 2 screen has a faded spot near the lower bottom corner above the Home key. When i start it, i could see the faded portion clearly, but when the screen comes up live, its normal. if i open any app which has a black portion falls on that location can make it visible. Rest of the time its fine. Is it a light leak from the corner? Should i get it serviced or live with it?
    I bought it 2 weeks before.
    Vijay

    I Have a similar problem. My iPad screen will not respond to touch. If I tough the start button a message appears that says slide to unlock, but will not respond to my touch. If I touch the on/off key a message says slide to power off, but the screen will not respond to my touch. What must I do?

  • My macbook has this purple spotting on the sides of the top. It's comparable to a bruise because it's not a surface stain. Any ideas?

    As I said in your original post, iTunes U is not available to any institution, government or otherwise, in South Korea. If or when Apple will extend iTunes U to your country is something none of us here can say, and Apple will not until such time as they're ready to make an announcement. What Apple's criteria and requirements are for being able to open iTunes U in a given country is unknown; there is no "procedure" that any of us here can state or direct you to that you could initiate. It's totally up to Apple, and if they are working on this, I'm sure they know who in the SK government they would need to work with.
    Sorry, but you will just have to wait and hope that something develops in the future.
    Regards.

  • Ipad 2 front camera has a blurry black line down the middle

    Evening,
    My Ipad 2 front camera has a blurry black line down the middle, tried resetting but still there. back camera is fine.
    Any ideas ???

    Hello AndyPharris,
    It sounds like you're seeing an unexpected black line when you take photos with your rear camera. I would next backup the iPad to your iTunes library:
    iOS: How to back up and restore your content
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    And restore it from your backup with this article as a new device to test the issue:
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
    If it works, restore from your backup and verify it still works. If the issue persists when you restore as new, I would seek service for your device with this page:

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,

  • I am running OS X Mavericks, and all of a sudden everything in safari has become blurry

    Everything has become blurry,the search bar, the webpage, everything. I've attached a screen shot showing what is wrong
    I know its hard to tell, but if anyone could help it would be fntastic

    with your cc apps you should try to use the sync feature.  that's never worked consistently for me, but when it does work, it's helpful.
    there are preference folders and presets and settings that you could copy but you're better off installing fresh because a common problem for people with adobe program issues is a settings issue.

        Oh goodness,SLEEPER888. We wish you didn't have this problem while trying to complete this update.You have done quite a bit of troubleshooting on your own. If the phone update does not take, we would need to replace it with the warranty. Is it still locked up?
