The camera app doesn't start from lock screen

One of the new features in IOS 5 is the ability to start the camera from teh lock screen. However, my phone doesn't allow this. Was this function built into the final release version of IOS 5?

This feature is not working on my iPad 2. When I double-click the Home button--in lock-screen position-- the iPod features appear at the top of my screen, as they always have. The photostream icon remains in place to the right of my Home screen slide lock. No camera icon comes up anywhere. I have photostream set to off and tried switching it to on, to see if this would make a difference; it does not. I'm very computer and device-literate. The problem isn't in the way I'm double-clicking the Home button. This feature is definitely not working on my iPad 2.

    You don't swipe but actually press, hold and push up.

  • Camera App Won't Launch from Lock Screen after update

    After updating to ios 8 and then 8.1 my camera app will not launch from the lockscreen. When I swipe up on the camera app I see my home screen wallpaper until I press the home button or the lock button.

    Hey morpeo,
    Thanks for the question. Let’s see if we can isolate the issue further. To do so, try restarting/resetting your device:
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
    If the issue persists after a restart, let’s see if we can isolate to software or hardware by backing up and restoring your device as new:

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
    After erasing and setting up as a new device, your device is now in a factory configuration. Test to determine if erasing and setting up as a new device resolved the issue. Content on the device may have caused unexpected behavior.
    If the issue is still present, you may want to contact Apple Support.
    Thanks,

  • The Camera app is suddenly missing from my iPhone, how do I get it back?

    My camera app is suddenly missing from my phone.. how do I get it back or find it? it's not in any 'folders' -- Same with my Safari app--  Not sure if my 2 yr old deleted it? I didn't think those were deletable apps.

    Default apps are part of the iOS and cannot be deleted.  Search all home screens and all folders and/or search for it with Spotlight, that will tell you what folder it's in.
    Also check Settings > General > Restrictions to see if it has been restricted.
    If not found, Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout.

  • Xperia Z3 Compact camera error when starting from locked screen (symbol lock)

    Hi
    I'm a new owner of Xperia Z3 Compact and I have noticed a problem when launching camera. The app itself works perfectly well but when trying to launch camera from locked phone (screen locked with symbol) it shows only black screen with error message that camera app it unaccessible. After removing lock screen protection both camera symbol on lock screen and dedicated camera button works as intended. Is it supposed to be that way? On my previous phone I could launch camera app without unlocking screen but couldn't access any other parts of the phone. I'd love to have it working the same way here especially with the dedicated camera button.
    Hoping for a fast answer. 
    Regards

    You may need to perform a software repair using PC Companion.The process will erase all internal memory.You might need to charge your device for about 1-2 hours before so the device has at least 60% battery.
    Make sure the device is not connected to computer or laptop and turned off (sometimes you have to press power button and volume up until the device vibrates 3 times or on some devices you have to press the small button near the SIM tray or on the back of the device).
    Open PC companion->support zone->phone/tablet software update->repair my phone/tablet blue highlighted.Follow the steps given,do not connect your phone until prompted to press volume down while plugging USB cable. If PC companion does not start the repair process, you might need to run it in compatibility mode with Windows 7 (in some cases XP).

  • [SOLVED] KDE Start New Session doesn't work from lock screen

    On my laptop, if I lock the KDE 4 session and then click Switch Users > Start New Session, I get a login screen and can log in as a different user. All good.
    If I do the same thing on my desktop, it doesn't work. When I click Switch Users > Start New Session, it doesn't start a new session or switch VTs. Instead, I just get reprompted for the existing user's password.
    Both machines are running fully updated Arch. Anyone know how I can troubleshoot this? The only difference I can think of between the laptop and desktop is that the desktop has nomodeset specified as a kernel boot parameter. (It won't boot without it.) Could this be interfering with automatic VT switching? Manual VT switching (e.g. Ctrl+Alt+F1) works fine.

  • Config Tool doesn't start from the application list

    Hi all,
    I have installed Planning, EAS, and Workforce on a server but when I go to configure the tools, the config tool doesn't start from the page where you select the applications to configure. Instead, it starts with all the apps listed with the message: "You have selected the above apps to configure" and it has a Back button but it doesn't work, and it has a Next button and when I press it, it says Done.
    I need to configure the database and deploy to the application server.
    The Shared services is on a different server and is up and running. Essbase is on a separate server and that's up and running.
    I am working with 11.1.1.3 32 bit applications on a 64 bit Windows OS.
    If you have run into this, please let me know what am I missing?
    Thanks

    Hi
    First of all I couldnt get your problem as in your query description you have written "sometimes the video doesn't skips a couple of seconds from the beginning even though the value of NetStream.time property is 0" which is contradictory with the query title "Video doesn't start from the beginning".
    But anyways I think you should check ns.time in Play.Start there you should get always 0 but in Buffer.Full there may be the case that ns.time is not 0 but has some value but that value is very small less than 1.
    If still you have issue please clarify your problem then probably I will be able to answer your query.
    Regards,
    Amit

    Guessing by the name "Class_Fun_MB.GetWMI()", it might have something to do with WMI. The WMI itself seems to be working fine: my event viewer shows no error regarding it, and I can run wmic.exe and execute commands like "PROCESS get Caption,Commandline,Processid"...
    The other application (MSI afterburner) works just fine, but it's way too scary for me to use, and I'd really like to have the Gaming App working - please help!

    I'm using a hp z230 tower workstation, with LGA-1150/i7 4771 processor, PCH C226 chipset, and 16GB RAM (can't post external link to hp page).
    I tried reinstalling Gaming App, etc. but to no avail.
    Except that, I have no other problems with the PC or graphics card. Played Witcher3 for several hours - all smooth and stable.

  • Sending Photos from the Camera App

    So, I know for a fact that this existed in iOS 6, but it does not any more in iOS 7. I was just wondering if there was an option to put back the share button while viewing photos from the camera app? I used to use it all the time, but now, I have to go elsewhere and it makes more steps.
    This image is from within the photos app. It has the share button on the left
    This one is from the camera app in the photo viewer. It doesn't have the share button. any way to get it back?
    Thanks

    That's a feature they might add down the line, but I don't believe it is possible now.
    I'm going to guess at their reasoning for it - if your phone is locked and someone else besides you gets ahold of it, do you really want them to be able to access not only your messages but also your social network?

  • IPhone 5s camera app won't open and crashes from lock screen and control menu

    Hello, I recntly got a Black iPhone 5s 16gb and it was working fine. Then sudenly the camera app started crashing after i took photos. Soon later the camera app wont open at all and if i try opening from the lockscreen the phone just reboots. Ive tried just resetting all settings just off the phone and nothing happened, so i decided to restore my iPhone to factory settings and still had no luck. I also had a problem with the flashlight it stopped working aswell (went gray on control menu) and all flashlight apps wont even. I also found out that my snapcat front camera (selfie camera works) and there is no 'swap button.
    This is the second time Ive been suffering from a camera issue the first one was ery similar the shutter wouldnt open because there was no memory, but now ive got 9.1GB free so this cant be the problem.  Other reviews i have read state that the phone has a hardwear issue and need to be replaced.

    FIX FOR REAR CAMERA AND FLASHLIGHT!!!
    I also had the same flash and rear camera problems as everyone else but I figured it was a software problem.
    To fix the flash/flashlight, simply download the flashlight app. The one everyone used before iOS 7. The flash should work immediately.
    To fix the rear camera go to Settings > General > Restrictions. Enable restrictions and turn the Camera off, then take the restriction off. Check your camera, it should work immediately.
    Hope this answers a lot of questions and saves a bunch of money due to Apple's failures.
    Cheers,

I only have 400 photos saved on my phone so its not a fact of not having enough space. any help would be greatly appreciated

  • A camera icon (with the ends cut off) is on my lock screen, and it wont open the camera app. how do i fix this?

    A camera icon (with the ends cut off) is on my lock screen, and it wont open the camera app. how do i fix this? does anyone else have this problem with the iphone 4s?

    What do you mean "with the ends cut off"?
    You swipe the screen upwards starting on this icon to open the camera app.

  • I cannot connect to my camera at all. I have tried turning it off then on and downloading all the camera apps but it still won't work. My iPod doesn't even give me the option to use anywhere.

    My iPod doesn't give me any choice to access the camera. I have tried sownloading a camera app and restarting my iPod but when I had the camera app the screen just turned black. Any idea what's going on?

    Try the following:
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order
