The shutter on my camera wont open

The shutter of my IPad 3 won't open.

Try closing the Camera app completely and see if it works when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Camera app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Camea app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

  • Ipad2 camera wont open

    My new ipad 2 is just over two weeks old. The camera and video worked fine for the first week I owned - then, whilst on my flight to a holiday, i noticed it would not open. The shutter remains in the closed position after clicking to open the camera app and I'm very frustrated that it will not work anymore. The same thing happened on my relatively new iphone 4 a few weeks ago and now both devices are experiencing the same issue.
    I'm hoping there is a fix out there as this is very disappointing - lucky I still carry and use an old fashioned digital camera on holiday!!!!
    Any help/ advice appreciated please.

    go to the home page
    double click the home button
    now hold down on the camera app icon till it starts to wiggle
    now click the red circle
    click the home button twice
    now launch the camera app

  • Why has my iphone 4g been crashing in apps and camera wont open?

    I will be playing in an app and it will randomly crash and the camera once open it shows the shutters closed and i can leave it open for as long as it takes for my phone to relock and it still wont open. I need to know whats wrong. thanks all.

    did you get the most recent update? also you might have a lot of apps you need to update, or have too many apps open. to update apps just go to the app store and update all, and to close appls double click your home button and press down on one of the apps that comes up until it starts to wiggle and a - comes up, then touch that to close all your apps.

  • Lumia 800 Camera wont open

    Hi the camera function in my brand new Lumia 800 wont open. This is both from trying to use the on screen button and side of phone button. I have tried changing the camera settings but this has not helped? Any suggestions please? Thanks

    @jtsticks
    As a pre-cursor to returning your device can only suggest that you perform the hardware reset press the Power key and hold it for 10 seconds, when screen turns black press the Power key to turn on the phone; After that the software / operating system (OS) reset returns the phone to its out-of-the-box state by Tap Settings > About > reset your phone - default Nokia lock code of 12345 unless altered by user (Note: that this procedure erases all consumer data!)

  • My front camera wont open.

    When I go to switch from my back camera (which works fine) to my front camera, It doesnt open. It just shows the closed shutter screen, and I cant get it to go away? Help? I have a iPod 5, IOS 6.0.1

    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: How to back up           
    - 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.

  • The New 10.2 iTunes Wont Open In My Windows Vista?

    I used to have the iTunes 10.0 i think of what ever was the old version before the 10.2 came out. It said to download the new version and i did. and now when i try to open it, it says "This shortcut has been moved or changed" and i keep uninstalling it and everything and install it back and it still says the same thing. Any help?
    Thank you!

    Okay ... so it looks like some permissions are stuffed up around your program files area.
    Now you've got the folder open, can you check something further for me please? Try right-clicking on the itunes.exe and selecting "run as administrator". Does it launch when you do that?
    (Trying to work out here if it's a problem with your Windows user account's permissions that is causing the messages, or if some different set of permissions has turned to custard for us.)

  • IPhone 4s 16gb iOS 5.1 CAMERA WONT OPEN!!!!!!!!!  Help me

    My brand new iPhone 4s that runs iOS 5.1 won't open my camera. Everytime I click on it now the camera app just stays on the closed lens screen or it goes to a black screen. It doesn't work 75-90% of the time now. I went to my local AT&T store and they told me to do a hard restart which worked for a bit but know has no effect. My I have restored my phone plenty of times which didn't work and I have tried going in and out of Dfu mode and that also didn't work should I take it in and get a new phone? If so it hasn't been 30 days yet since my purchase but I don't want to get a refurbished phone. I have the apple care plan but I repeat I don't want a used phone . Taking it in is my last option but I would like to see if its fixable first . Help meeeeew

    If restoring your phone as a new device has failed to solve the problem, then you have a hardware failure.  Bring your phone back to Apple for exchange.
