Taking a picture inside iMessage

Ever since updating to iOS8.1 on my iPhone 5S I can't take pictures within the iMessage app.  I press the picture button and the camera appears to open but never really opens.  Meaning it looks like there is a lens cap on it.  I have to exit iMessage, open the camera, take the picture, then go back into iMessage and send the photo.  Anyone else have this issue?

Select Print and then in the PDF menu, select Save as PDF. You could then convert that to a jpeg or other format Preview supports.

  • Black screen when taking picture in imessage

    I have a new iphone 6 and updated to iOS-8.02.  When I try to send a message and include a picture, I click on the camera icon, and can take the first picture.  When I try to do it again, I get a black screen...  Nothing appears.  I have to go to multi-tasking and close the imessage app, before I can get the opportunity to take another picture inside of imessage.  I don't have any problems using the camera normally,  Tried this on my daughters iphone 5 with iOS 8.02 and she has same issue. 
    Any ideas?
    Is Apple aware of this issue and working on it?   Or is this a new problem?

    Sounds like the known bug in Windows 8.
    Update your video card drivers from the GPU maker's website.
    Or set the GPU mode in Photoshop down to "Basic".
    Microsoft hasn't released a fix yet, but those should work around the bug.

  • I can't change the picture on iMessage on my Macbook Pro. Please help! :(

    Every time I try to change my picture on iMessage it only changes until I close out of it and then it reverts back to the default.
    So I know I go to Message --> Change My Picture --> Defaults --> Done
    Am I doing something wrong to where the picture won't stay permanently or missing a step?
    Help would be much appreciated (:

    The OP is running 10.6.8 so Java 6 is his option at this point.

    I bought iPhone 3GS(Used) recently and updated ios 6.1.3 my iPhone is taking blurry Pictures through basic default Cam app.Can anybody please let me know any solution for this?

    Basic troubleshooting steps right out of the user guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new.  If you've been through ALL the steps and you still have the problem, then you'll need to bring your phone to Apple for evaluation.

  • I keep getting a "not delivered" message when I try to send a picture through imessage

    Over the last week each time I sent a picture in iMessage it goes out then I get a "Not Delivered" message. The other person gets the picture even though it says not delivered.  I've shut iMessage off then back on, I've done a hard shutdown/restart.  I'm not sure what else to do.  Is anyone else having this issue and been able to resolve it?
    Thank you!

  • 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...

    ===================================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

    you opened a case at our support portal. That is the right way to get support for such very specific issues.

  • Hello, my iphone 5s fell, thereafter i tried taking a picture, the camera app just shows a black screen and hangs, the front camera works on other apps but the rear camera is not working, all other apps work perfectly well, how do i resolve this

    Hello, my iphone 5s fell, thereafter i tried taking a picture, the camera app just shows a black screen and hangs, the front camera works on other apps (such as facetime and skype) but the rear camera is not working, all other apps work perfectly well, how do i resolve this

    Double tap Home button and delete Camera app from multitask-list.
    Do a
    Reset: Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Note: You will not lose any data

  • Is there an app where it saves your photo shortly after onto the web/online after taking a picture?

    Is there an app where it saves your photo shortly after onto the web/online after taking a picture? In essense, I want to be able to take a picture with the stock camera app on the Iphone 4 and have it saved immediately online after...without hooking it back onto a computer...completely automatic and wireless/using internet data.
    Thanks very much.

    If you're running iOS 5.1 or later you could use Photo Stream.  See http://www.apple.com/icloud/features/photo-stream.html and http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486.  It will upload up to 1000 photos to iCloud.com for 30 days.

  • 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

  • How to put pictures inside the table in Pages for IPad?

    How can I put pictures inside the table in Pages for IPad? I can do that in Pages in my macbook, but I can't in IPad.

    It would appear that unless you are working from a document that already had section breaks (or the equivilent) ,you can't. I have some files in pages that began as MS Word documents with multiple sections that allow that by tapping on the footer (or header) and making the change. Files created in Pages (or from other sources but without section beaks) do not.

  • IPhone crashed while taking a picture then rebuilt library????

    I was in the middle of taking a picture, and my iPhone 3gs iOS 4 crashed. I turned it back on, and went to find the picture i took. When i clicked on photo albums, or whatever its called.. it said loading.. rebuilding library. (something like that) and when it finished, over 150 of my pictuers were gone. ALL of my pictures from this summer, im talking trips.. going to the lake.. my friends going away party.. and family coming to visit. Is there any way i can get these pictures back? Im not sure that rebooting my phone would work, because the last time i have plugged my phone into the computer was over 2 months ago.. so these pictures were taken after that.
    I will do anything. I just want these pictures back. Help?

    Probably not. That's why the manual says to connect the phone to your computer and back up frequently. I do it daily.

  • 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.

  • 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.
