Shutter not opening, tried all suggested fixes, nothing...

Ok,
So I've followed these threads for weeks attempting to fix camera.
I know it's a common problem, ie shutter remains closed, unable to take pics...
I've reset, rebooted, held finger over lens, deleted pics, rebooted again, restarted, used third party apps, even changed camera itself, so definitely software issue...
Will a visit to an apple store help? Will they take it off my hands and replace it?
Any ideas?
I need the camera but love my phone...
Help
Cheers
Chris

Bring the phone to Apple if you've done all the suggested fixes.  However, you'll pay $149 for an out of warranty replacement.  Personally, I'd just get a new phone.  I wouldn't throw money at a phone that has been discontinued.

  • I can't send email in Thunderbird and I have tried all suggested fixes I can find!

    I moved Thunderbird from my old MacBook Pro to a new MacBook Pro (I have done this before with no problems).
    I updated Thunderbird on both laptops before I did this - to version 31.0
    The new machine's running Mavericks 10.9.4
    I started to notice intermittent problems with sending email - this seemed to free up when I opened up my BT email account (the account that 'feeds' Thunderbird) and then resent the email in Thunderbird.
    This 'fix' has now stopped working and all I continually get when trying to send is the message:
    'Send Message Error
    The message could not be sent because connecting to SMTP server mail.btinternet.com failed.
    The server may be unavailable or is refusing SMTP connections.' (etc.)
    I checked with both Mozilla and BT forums/help pages, then went to Thunderbird>Tools>Account settings>Outgoing Server(SMTP)>Edit
    I then changed the settings to those recommended by both BT and Mozilla:
    Server Name: mail.btinternet.com
    Port - 465
    Security - SSL/TLS
    Authentication - normal password
    User Name - (my user name)
    I also tried many variations (including the original settings)
    Server Name: mail.btinternet.com
    Port - 587
    Security - none
    Authentication - password transmitted insecurely
    User Name - (my user name)
    I tried deleting my password and then doing the above all again.
    I tried turning the router off and back on and doing the above all again.
    Nothing - apart from not being able to send email Thunderbird's working fine with incoming, I really think I've tried everything I can. Can I delete my prefs - will this help? Is there anything I've missed? I've wasted 4 hours and it feels like 4 days!
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Error message as above and below:
    'Send Message Error
    The message could not be sent because connecting to SMTP server mail.btinternet.com failed.
    The server may be unavailable or is refusing SMTP connections.' (etc.)
    BT won't deal with this - they redirect me to a 'partner' who want to charge to discuss the problem. Nice, eh!

  • Adobe/Acrobat PDF documents will not open, tried community suggestions, version 9.4.4.235

    Assorted websites may refer to links for documents to open, but I receive an error message stating that the Adobe/Acrobat loaded will not open them, I have tried all of the community suggestions to no avail

    Click the Firefox button, go to Add-ons, then Plugins and disable the following.<br><br>
    #Fun Web Products<br><br>
    #My Web Search Plugin<br><br>
    #Smiley Central<br><br>
    For the above three, see: http://www.pchell.com/support/mywebsearch.shtml
    In addition, disable the Yahoo ActiveX plugin.
    ActiveX is a Microsoft technology which is frequently targeted by criminals. Although the technology is reasonably safe when running inside Internet Explorer, it potentially exposes your system to attack when installed in Firefox.
    You do not need it to access Yahoo in any event.
    If the problem persists in spite of the above steps, try running Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If it functions properly in that configuration, then one of your add-ons is the culprit.
    '''N.B.''' You do not need to run "Hijack This" as described in the link since Firefox provides the option to disable plugins as mentioned above.

  • Ipod not working, tried all suggestions i could find none worked

    I have a 20 gb ipod that my mom got from sam's club, there is an hp thing on the back so guess that means it's and hp ipod and not a straight apple ipod which my brother says is bad, it came with a griffen itrip and a griffen powerpod car charger, that's all the background about it that i know.
    so i was listening to it today and went to change the song and it didn't play so i figured i must have paused it accidentally, so i hit the play button again, and it changed songs..so then i decided to turn it of and turn it back on again, and it didn't turn back on, it started making wierd clicking noises, so i plugged it into a charger to see if that would fix it and that didn't work either, then i plugged it into my computer and it didn't show up on my computer or in itunes, so i went to this website and started looking around, i did the whole hold down select and menu for 6 second thing and the apple sign showed up, but nothing else happened so i tried to restore it, but the updater wo't regonize it, so then i downloaded the new updater, and it says that it won't mount, so then i did all the stuff i could understand on the "what to do it your ipod won't mount" page i tried forcing it into disk mode like it said to but i wouldn't go, then it just kinda went into disk mode by itself, but the updater still didn't recognize it, so then i tried downloading the new itunes and all that stuff and tried removing the itunes software from my computer, and i guess i did b/c i can't find it now... and now my ipod stopped making the noise, but it's random displaying either the apple symbol, the DO NOT DISCONNECT symbol and that folder with the exclamation point, i tried all the stuff under " folder with an exclamation point" page as well nothing has worked...
    what do i do?

    Hi ...
    The problem is the iPod, not your Mac.
    Place the iPod in recovery mode > If you can't update or restore your iOS device
    If that won't work, contact Apple >  iPod touch - Apple Support

  • Firefox cant find a server after updating. other browsers can. tried all suggested fixes, any suggestions?

    "Server not found
    Firefox can't find the server at....."
    keep getting this when trying to access the internet. only started happening after updating to firefox .36
    Running windows xp, firefox has been working great until now. ive tried all the suggested fixes, firewalls etc.
    Chrome and explorer are working fine but im a firefox fan and dont want to change. any help would be gratefully appreciated

    Hello gregmurphy128,
    This does sound like a Firewall issue. Are you running any security software on your PC?
    If not, here are instructions for Windows Firwall: [[Configure Windows Firewall to allow Firefox access to the Internet]]
    Thanks,

  • After trying all suggested fixes, download error - javascript application still occurs when I try to download using Ant video downloader - help?

    This started after the latest security update for Firefox26 self installed. I have tried all of the suggested fixes; restarting in default mode, un-installing then re-installing the Ant video down loader etc all to no avail. How do I fix this?

    Ant Video Downloader 2.4.7.11 is a Firefox add-on that doesn't look like it's been updated yet for Firefox 26. See https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/video-downloader-player/
    The best I can suggest is to contact the add-on developer.

  • Firefox constantly freezes on my Mac, although I've installed the latest version and tried all suggested fixes - without success.

    I used Firefox up to version 3.5 and it worked well. But ever since, FF has frozen as soon as I've opened a webpage other than Google. FF even freezes when I'm in Mozilla's help pages !
    I have trashed and reinstalled several times, updated constantly as suggested. I'm now using (or trying to use) version 25. No success.
    I have done everything that was suggested :
    - trashed and reinstalled ( several times over the years, to see if new versions of FF would work)
    - restarted FF in safe mode
    - tweaked the profile as recommended
    - I've painstakingly checked that all my plug-ins etc were up to date. They are.
    None of these solutions have worked. As I have written more than once, none of them should be necessary : Firefox should "just work". After all, other browsers do - I use Safari and Chrome, for instance, as well as SeaMonkey. Does any
    one know what's happening ?
    I'm now running Mac OS 10.9.

    A moderator (AliceWyman, whom I thank for her post) suggests I reset Firefox. I've done that, more than once.
    The problem remains. And so does my question : why does Firefox keep on hanging/freezing ?
    Why should fixes be necessary? Mozilla, in its Firefox page, generously offers the browser free, and users assume that it will, simply, work. In my case, it doesn't.
    And as I've said: I've tried a whole range of fixes and workarounds (that aren't necessary with other browsers) and they haven't worked. If my iMac can handle all the other browsers with no problem, this indicates that the computer works, and that the other browsers do too. So this problem seems to be a specific Firefox one.
    As I've already said, I could just give up and use Safari, Chrome, Chromium, SeaMonkey, Maxthon, or Slimboat, for instance.
    But it irks me that FF, with such a good reputation (it's the third most widely used browser), should behave in this way.
    "Different by design", says its webpage. Well, it's certainly different. Can anyone help? I've been asking these questions, trying "fixes", trashing and clean-reinstalling for about a week now.

  • No sound on iPad mini. Have tried all suggested fixes

    Make sure sound is not muted (little bell)

  • Firefox will not open at all, no message , nothing. The other browser (internet explorer) opens fine. Do I delete the old program and reinstall it? It works fine on the other two accounts on this computer.

    no other details, I click on foxfire, the hourglass figure
    appears for a few seconds then goes off and nothing else happens.

    Try the procedures in the [[Firefox will not start]] article.

  • Cannot connect to app store to buy OX X lion.  Tried all suggested fixes.

    The only way is through the App Store. If your wireless isn't working, try using an ethernet cable to directly connect to your computer, or look online for some ways to get your wireless working again.

  • I've tried to update my i-Tunes version after the site suggested I should following my i-Pad being plugged into it for the first time. The update seemed successful but the program would not open at all despite switching off the PC and re-starting several

    I’ve tried to update my i-Tunes version after the site suggested I should following my i-Pad Air being plugged into it for the first time. The update seemed successful but the program would not open at all despite switching off the PC and re-starting several times. I then tried wiping the original software from the computer and re-downloading from scratch. Each time I tried the download failed with a message saying “Service “Apple Mobile Device” failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services” At this stage, the only way forward was to “abort” the download. This I have done now four times and the same thing happens. When I did finally manage to get an i-Tunes shortcut on my desktop, the program wouldn’t open saying: “i-Tunes was not installed correctly. Please re-install i-Tunes. Error 7 (Windows error 193)” Any ideas to resolve this?

  • I upgraded from 3.6.13 to Beta 4.0 and now Firefox will not open at all I tried to uninstall to start again but it will not uninstall either it does nothing.

    I uninstalled Beta 4 and re-installed 3.6.13 now Firefox will not open at all I tried to uninstall to start again but it will not uninstall either it does nothing, I have been using Firefox for a long time but cannot resolve this problem can anyone help and give me a solution please. As I use Firefox as my web browser it is very frustrating.
    The fact it will not uninstall appears to be something completely new as nobody I know who uses Firefox has ever encountered this in the past.

    Did you check your security software (firewall)?
    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.

  • I'm having trouble connecting to apps, itunes store, internet on my iPhone 5 running iOS 7.0.4.  I am currently connected to a perfectly running WiFI connection.  Why am I not able to connect anything?  I've tried ALL the fixes suggested.  HELP!!!!!!!!!

    I'm having trouble connecting to apps, itunes store, internet on my iPhone 5 running iOS 7.0.4.  I am currently connected to a perfectly running WiFI connection.  This just started happening today (2/19/14)!  Why am I not able to connect anything?  I've tried ALL the fixes suggested.  HELP!!!!!!!!!  BTW, I know my Wi-Fi connection is good because I'm using it on my desktop and other people in my office are also connected on their iPhones and desktops.  Again, HELP!!!!

    You may not really be connected to your WiFi network.
    Your router may not have given your iPhone a valid IP address. Go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the "i" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
    Sometimes the fix can be as simple as restarting your router (remove power for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPhone (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
    If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router make, model and version, the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc.

  • HT1473 My itunes will not open at all - I repeatedly get the message"itunes library is corrupted...not installed correctly...please reinstall itunes" I have tried opening all my itunes folders but nothing will even open.

    My itunes will not open at all - I repeatedly get the message"itunes library is corrupted...not installed correctly...please reinstall itunes" I have tried opening all my itunes folders but nothing will even open.

    Let's try a repair install of iTunes first.
    Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "iTunes" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "iTunes", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
    Can you launch your iTunes now?
