Shutter sound that camera makes when taking a picture sound like it's dying.

The shutter sound that my iphone 5s makes when I take a picture sounds like it's dying. Anyone else have this happen on their phone? This hasn't caused a problem with taking pictures but it sounds weird.

Unfortunately, your naivete about complex electronic devices has misled you into a common misconception that Problem A = Cause B = Painless, no-effort, Solution C. It's all magic to you.
Virtually any problem can have a multitude of causes, if for no other reason that you have incompletely described the total state of the phone. More broadly, your camera problem is being caused either by corrupted code and or settings, of unknown origin, or a hardware issue. There is no way anyone determine psychicly. The only way to find out is the standard troubleshooting steps developted by Apple, and described In the User Guide.
it's taking more than half a day to put a big bandage on the wound and hope it fixes it.
Nonsense. 1-2 hours tops for 2 restores.
This has been a problem with the phone since the day I bought it. It can occur everyimte I use the camera app for a week then not happen as much for a couple months. In the past year, I have restarted, reset restored, etc several times and I still have this problem
You oddly failed to mention any of that in your initial post, and instead endowed us with whining about your frustration level... You didn't mention doing ANY of the troubleshooting steps you now describe. Yet another example of entitlement trumping logic.
The bottom line: Restore the phone as new (without restoring the backup), if you haven't done so already. If that doesn't work, you need warranty replacement of the phone.

So every time i start up my comp i get a white screen with a question mark on a file. It also makes the clicking sound that it makes when its thinking. what do i do?

i have tried rebooting with the command+option+p+r keys and that doesn't work
i have tried holding down the shift key and that doesn't work
i have tried inserting the cd that it came with but nothing happened
i have only had it for about a year
am i screwed?

If it is a Mid 2012 model it did not come with a CD or DVD. So I don't know what disc you are using but it certainly did not come with the system. Now if it is older the a 2011 model then those came with optical discs.
Try holding down the Coomand+r key yo boot to the Recovery HD partition. If that doesn't work hold down the Command+Option+r keys until you see a spinning globe in the center of the screen. From that you can use Disk Utility to check the internal hard drive.
But I suspect your drive might be failing or it is totally corrupted. If the system is less then a year old you are still inside the one year warranty period and if you are I suggest you take it to an Apple store to checked out and fixed under that warranty.
Also if the system is still within the one year warranty I suggest you buy the Applecare Extended warranty. You may need it.

Turn of click sound when taking a picture

I have a BB Tour 9630. Is it possible to disable the clicking shutter sound the camera makes when you take a pic?

There is nothing natively on the device that will do that.
There are a couple of 3rd party apps that do, though. One is called BerryAnnoying and *I think* QuickLaunch will do it but don't quote me on that one.

Hi,
Tap the iPod icon in the Dock. Then tap the Airplay icon just to the right of the volume slider.
Make sure the iPad speakers are selected, not your wireless.

CK71 suddenly hang when taking a picture using the camera

Hi team, The customer is using the CK71 with camera option.
OS is. 1.61.22.72.
Our partner developed the camera application based on Intermec source file according to the IDL(Multimedia Resource Kit).
Regarding the source that the partner tested, I attached the zip file including the DotNetCF 3.5.
Also, I attached the CNxDShow.CAB that we have to install first for operating the camera. The symptom is... when taking the picture again and again in light environment and in dark environment by turns, suddenly CN70 hang. For restoring, we should remove the battery and install it again for rebooting.
But, the customer hates the removing and reinstalling the battery. To reproduce the symptom....
1. Copy all file under the folder "\FullSreenCameraCNx\FullSreenCameraCNx\bin\Debug" and paste them into the device.
2. Copy the CNxDShow.CAB and paste into the device.
3. Install the CNxDShow.CAB first
4. Create new folder "\My Documents\My Pictures" on the device, if the device doesn't have the name of the folder
5. Execute the FullScreenCameraCNx.exe on the device by clicking
6. Try taking a picture by pushing the enter key in light/dark environment by turns again and againIn our trouble shooting,
The application put the log file when taking a picture.
the location of the log is under the folder "Flash File Store\Log\Device_Conncet".
Normal log is...
===================================
2015-06-30 5:2:31 Camera Shot S
2015-06-30 5:2:31 Camera Shot E
2015-06-30 5:2:33 Start
2015-06-30 5:2:33 Shot Result : Ok : \My Documents\My Pictures\SnapShot-5.jpg
===================================or
===================================

2015-06-30 4:58:0 Camera Shot E
2015-06-30 4:58:1 Start
2015-06-30 4:58:1 Snapshot failed
===================================But, Abnormal log when Device hang suddenly is ...
No "Start" or No "Snapshot failed" like the below.
===================================
2015-06-30 5:5:34 Camera Shot S
2015-06-30 5:5:34 Camera Shot E

2015-06-30 5:5:35 Camera Shot S
2015-06-30 5:5:35 Camera Shot E
===================================Please see the logfile in the 20150630.txt that I attached additionally.
The thing that we are feeling that it was strange is....
in the source, if invoked "Cam.Snapshot(CurrentResolution)", "Cam_SnapshotEvent" should be called. But, when we experienced the "Device Hang" during taking the pictures, I guess that "Cam_SnapshotEvent" were not called. I copied and pasted the some part of source that I want to highlight like the below.
============================================================//---------------------------------------------------
// make snapshot
bool AcceptingEnter = true; //for eliminating repeating enter keydown events...
void Form1_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
if (e.KeyData == Keys.Enter && AcceptingEnter == true)
AcceptingEnter = false;
log_Entity.write_Log(1, " Camera Shot S");
Cam.Snapshot(CurrentResolution);
log_Entity.write_Log(1, " Camera Shot E");
e.Handled = true;
// Received snapshot event
void Cam_SnapshotEvent(object sender, Camera.SnapshotArgs sna)
log_Entity.write_Log(1, " Start");
if (sna.Status != Camera.SnapshotStatus.Ok)
log_Entity.write_Log(1, " Snapshot failed");
MessageBox.Show("Snapshot failed");
else
log_Entity.write_Log(1, " Shot Result : " + sna.Status + " : " + sna.Filename);
============================================================ Can anyone provide the information or solution why the CK71 suddenly hang and how to avoid the "device hang"? Best Regards,
Kim, Hyun Wook

When taking video the sound is a loud hiss on the playback (and when transferred/uploaded to computer) drowning out the sound of the video itself. How do I fix this?

When taking video the sound is a loud hiss on the playback (and when transferred/uploaded to computer) drowning out the sound of the video itself. How do I fix this?

I'm using the default camera app with the phone. Happens every time with videos that I take with the camera. does not occur when watching other videos, only videos taken with the phone. and when the video is uploaded to a computer or online, the hiss stays with the video.
I just bought the phone a few months ago, so this is the first time I’ve tried taking video with it. I’ve tested repeatedly to see if its intermittent but it’s constant.

Red Camera Light when taking Video

Dear All,
            I know this has been discussed many times but I just want to check whether is there any way or nokia have any intention to solve this issue of having the red indicator light when taking video/picture.
             I do understand is for privacy issue and have no regards in shutting off simulated camera shutter tone when taking video and picture.
             However problems comes in when we try to take video/picture through windows and we see the red reflection light instead, and we are not able to capture our young children without them staring at the red light.
Do advice, im using a nokia 6710 navigator by the way
Regards

well, i got a 6120 classic- video camera is not the best in the world. what i have found- in during the day and just for more colorful photos it is better switch a Sunny mode. but every thing goes wrong with the video.
and during the night it is better not to shooy at all.
some people told me, that the panel of a phone and the transperent part of a camera is not of the best quality.
i even tried several programms for photo's quality development- no use.
the example of on my honda's board in the night- i guess the topic starter is talking about this effect. http://xcuber.com/photo/kiilo89/1/1 - this is an xcuber account- there are 4 photos in that album. except one all photos shooted at night with the light source.
can it be fixed somehow?

How can I delete photos from my ipad that came in when I connected for the first time to my pc?

how can I delete photos from my ipad that came in when I connected for the first time to my pc? HELP

Photos that were synced from your computer using iTunes can only be deleted by de-selecting them from the folder from where they were synced - and then re-syncing.
Connect the iPad to the PC and launch iTunes.
Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
Click on the Photos Tab on the right.
If you want to remove all of the Photos - uncheck the Sync Photos from Heading
Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes
If you are using iTunes 11 - this will be helpful, Setting up syncing in Windows.

I have a white haze over photos when taking a picture with my flash

I have a white haze over photos when taking a picture with my flash. What can I do to fix it?

After the ios7 update, my wife's phone began having these same issues and we assumed it was a flaw with the update.
But after some trial and error, we concluded it was the illumination of the white plastic backing of the iPhone 4. We tried a different protective case, we blackened the apeture of the black case with a black sharpie, none of those things worked.
It was noted that the white and blurry photos only occurred with a case installed. Without a case, the photos were perfect. It is a *** issue.
Since we were using a case and appearance was not that big of an issue, I decided to apply a strip of black electrical tape with holes punched out for the camera and flash mechanisms and reapplied the protective case. This tacky fix solved 95% of the white blurry look to the flash photos.
So a work-around is to apply a non-transparent piece of tape, or sticker with appropiate sized holes for the camera lens and flash LED on the back of the white plastic phone case. It's tacky, it's a poor design from apple, but it works.

Camera closes after taking a picture & pic not saved

Hi there,
My iPhone has worked fine but now when taking a picture the camera closes and the phone doesn't appeared to have saved the photo at all. Nothing in the Camera Roll album!
I have tried shutting the phone off and powering up again but still experiencing the same issue.
Phone has the latest 1.1.4 firmware
Anyone else had this problem?

Yes I'm having the same problems. Taking pictures, then only seeing faint squares on the camera roll, with not pictures. When trying to raise photo, camera goes back to setting. This is my 4th Iphone, first one I purchased, took 100 pictures and downloaded them on a Dell Laptop, then faint squares on Camera roll showed up, taking it back to an Apple store in Louisville, Ky, getting a new phone, doing the same thing to a second party, another 100 photos, downloaded them, and again no pics, just empty squares, then I sent it to Apple, got a loaner service phone, and loaner phone wouldn't take pictures either, got a brand new phone from Apple service, invoice saying "replaced with new unit", and it again would not take pictures. 4 phones, and two service phones, and the last one a brand new phone from Apple service direct to my ole Indiana home, and still it doens't take and then store pictures, does just what the other phones have done, nothing different, still doesn't work, still doesn't take pictures, still not I wanted, and I'm going to keep trying. Let me hear from any one who has the same problem, or anyone who might have an answer, Joe

When I get a message it only vibrates even though all sounds are on and when someone calls the sound works perfectly normal.

Try a reset. To reset the iPhone, press and hold the home and sleep/wake buttons until you see the Apple logo (ignore the slide to power off prompt). If that doesn't work, perform a Restore via iTunes (from backup).

How do I turn the camera off after taking a picture?

How do I turn the camera off after taking a picture?

Exit the camera App by tapping the Home button.

When taking a picture with home button and sleep button can you get rid of the tool and task bar??

When taking a picture with home and sleep button can you get rid of the tool and task bar?? (the search bars)

No, but you can use any picture editing tool to crop out the bars. (Many are free in the App Store.) Me personally, I use PhotoPad, which I use to crop as well as rotate the screen shot. Takes less than a minute to do both with PhotoPad.

Shutter sound that camera makes when taking a picture sound like it's dying.
