The front and back camera on my itouch second generation stopped working. Any thoughts on how to fix it?

First, try to reset the device by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data by resetting.
If this does not work, set it up as new device again, explained in this article:
How to back up your data and set up as a new device
If still no luck, get it serviced, the issue might not be software related.

  • How many megapixels is the front and back cam on ipad 2?

    i wanna no how many MP are the fron and back cam in an ipad2 3G and Wifi version

    While those numbers seem low its important to remember what the ipad cameras are for. They are not for taking photos. Who wants to hold up a huge ipad to take photos anyway when the chances are we all own a camera phone with much higher resolution or better yet, a real camera.
    The cameras are designed for video. The front camera is good enough for facetime only while the rear can handle 720p video. Again, enough for a video call but thats about it.

  • My front and back camera won't work, and my flash will not either.

    I took some picture in the rain, my iPod 5th gen wasn't affected, then my iPod was dropped in a parking lot and found later. Other than that, nothing has really happened to it, but both the front and back camera do not work. When I open up a camera, it's just black. The flash doesn't work either. Can anyone help me?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • IPad 2 front and back camera is not work after update iOS 7.0.4 it gives like the resolution is not adjusted

    After updating my ipad 2 to iOS 7.0.4 , front and back camera is not working it gives like very small dots or dash. I did restore from iTunes and reset by holding on the home and sleep button, I also tried to close the app from the task bar but still all trials didn't solve the problem.

    I haven't heard of this before so I doubt it's a bug. Probably something happened during the 7.04 download.
    Backup your iPhone to iTunes and restore it as a new iphone, then restore from the backup. This will give you a fresh copy of iOS 7.04.

  • Video storing on iPhone 5, front and back camera

    Ok I am going to be taking a fairly lengthy video in a few days. I have the iPhone 5 16 GB. I am needing to know how much space I need on my phone to store the video. The video is going to be around 45 minutes long. Anyone who can shed any light on this would be greatly appretiated. I would like to know how much memory I would need for both front and back camera.
    Thanks

    I have also found out that the front camera contains more noise than the back camera when taking photos. Is that normal?

  • Front and back cameras stopped working after IOS 8 update

    My front and back cameras both stopped working after i updated my phone to the IOS 8 software. Does anyone know why this would happen or any way of fixing it?

    Hi VictoriaViking,
    Not sure why your cameras stopped working with the update, or what the exact symptom is (black screen, no response...), but please check out the Camera troubleshooting section of this article.  (I know some don't apply to your issue.)
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
    If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
    Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
    Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
    Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
    Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
    Try to remain steady while focusing:
    Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
    Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
    Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
    Take care,
    Nubz

  • I bought a new 5s and its front and back camera are not working, showing black image. My phone is IOS 7 updated, and some one insisted that its is software updation problem, and can be resolved by updating to IOS 8. Kindly suggest.

    I bought a new 5s and its front and back camera are not working, showing black image. My phone is IOS 7.1.2 updated, and some one insisted that its is software updation problem, and can be resolved by updating to IOS 8. Kindly suggest.

    I have the same issue on my iPhone 5s
    I've closed the app and re-booted the phone several times but it did not resolve the issue.
    Upgrading to iOS 8.0.2 did not resolve it either.
    Erasing the iPhone and restoring from a backup did not resolve it.
    I'm not sure what else to do.

  • Still waiting on Apple to come up with front and back camera for laptop.

    The Ipad, Iphone and Ipod have front and back camera.  Why can't the laptops have front and back camera? I have a mac pro and it would be great if I don't always have to turn the laptop for people to see what I'm trying to show them. 

    You would like to be looking at something while using facetime (for
    example) and switch over to a different camera while continuing the
    conversation without moving the computer.  That way you could see what
    you are showing them without having to look sideways at the display.
    So basically he wants a rear view camera.
    There is a issue with this because computers are stationary and thus the rear view camera could be used as a covert monitoring device.
    At least with a iPod or iPhone when someone holds it a certain way you know they are taking a video or picture, with a desktop/laptop one wouldn't know.
    For instance say your a pretty girl in coffee shop using your laptop, so now instead of a bunch of rabid geeks trying to catch your eye you have all their laptop rear view cameras pointed at your direction and streaming it online.
    Creepy.
    If one wants a rear view camera, buy a third party one and mount it on the top. It comes with a swivel base and thus can be pointed at any direction. Thus people can see your video recording and it's not covert.
    A rear mounted camera requires the entire Mac to be moved, which in the case of a large iMac is impracticable. Laptops being moved increasing their chances of being damaged, even more so if they have hard drives.
    Also there are laws about covert video recording/taping in many States and countries, you have to do so with the persons consent so things are not taken out of context.
    I'll have to vote no on this, especially since not many people will use it and we will all have to pay for it.

  • My front screen of my iphone 4 is cracked and if I bring it in to be fixed can I replace the front and back glass with a different color?

    I recently dropped my iphone 4 and cracked the front screen if I brought it in to be fixed can I get both the front and back glass replaced with a different color?

    No. They will not. The replacement will be identical to the old one. You always have the option of buying a brand new phone for the full retail price.

  • HT2837 Firewire ports on the front and back...

    The Firewire ports on the front and back... do they share bandwidth, or are they distinct and separate cards such that I can get (theoretical) 400Mb off of either, 800 total?

    2008, A1186, MacPro 2.8 Quad.
    Has both FW400 and 800 on the front and back.
    Question still stands though.  Are the ports on the front sharing bandwidth with the ones on the back?
