Why is my shutter stuck on ipad

I just received my Ipad2 yesterday - and my camera is already not working   i have tried to reset back to orginal settings like the post says but still when i click on my camera  all that happens is my shutter sits there and will not open.  HELP!!!

Try this -  rebooting:  Press and hold both the power and home button at the same time for at least 10 seconds  until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons.
Is your iPad fully charged?
If after rebooting, your shutter doesn't open, you may have a hardware problem and you should make an appointment with the Genius Bar at your Apple Store.  If your unit is found defective, it will be replaced.
There's quite a few posts about this problem. Usually you will get a replacement from Apple.

  • Why can't I update my iPad 3G to IOS 5? It is stuck at IOS 4.2.

    Why can't I update my iPad 3G from IOS 4.2 to IOS 5? iTunes says that no upgrades are available for the iPad but it updated my iPhone 4 and iPod Touch to IOS 5.

    No idea. What exactly is it that you see when you connect to iTunes (provide complete text, please).
    But, before doing that, bring both your iPad and your computer/iTunes combination back to a 'clean' configuration; on the iPad do a Reset, on the computer at a minimum log out and in of your user account (in OS X,  or whatever the Windoze equivalent would be) or if you prefer just do a Restart. If any flags are incorrectly set anywhere that should set them back to their proper states and, if that happens, you'll be in business when you connect and will see the update available.

  • Why is Photo Stream stuck on "Uploading 98 Photos"?

    Why is Photo Stream stuck on "Uploading 98 Photos"? They appear to be camera photos that I imported into iPhoto. I can leave the computer on all day and it still remains the same, meanwhile photos I take on the iPad are still being synced.

    Try to reset the Photo Stream:
    Disable it in System Preferences > iCloud
    Wait for a few minutes - have a cup of coffee.
    Then enabe it again.
    Repeat, if it has no effect the first time.
    Have you exceeded your daily or monthly limits?
    See: iCloud: Photo Stream limits

  • Why does my shutter not open for front facing camera?  and remains black during FaceTime, iphone 5 6.1.3 completely restored to factory

    Why does my shutter not open for front facing camera?  and remains black during FaceTime calling over wifi even to a macbook, iphone, ipad 2, ipod touch and the device i have is iphone 5, 6.1.3 completely restored to factory, 5 times, 4 without restoring from back up, the last one i figured might as well have my content on it if its not going to work anyways.
    Thanks

  • Why does it tell me my ipad is synched with another itunes library and wants to erase the thing when I want to synch it?  I haven't synched it with any other mac but my own.

    why does it tell me my ipad is synched with another itunes library and wants to erase the thing when I want to synch it?  I haven't synched it with any other mac but my own.

    Hi Lisa,
    I know from experience that this must be a frustrating situation for you especially if you don't want to loose the music/video content that is currently on your ipod. Unfortunately though you may have to consider re-syncing it as it thinks its currently synced with another computer.
    If you bought any music that is on the ipod through itunes you can opt to right click the ipod in itunes and 'transfer purchases' if you authorise your library in the 'Store' menu in itunes. Some reasons for this happening may include some of the following:
    Deleting and reinstalling your itunes on the computer.
    Removing the account you had on the computer you used itunes in and making a new one. (User account, eg: Lisa).
    Changing computers in the past.
    A friend or family member syncing it on their computer to give you there music.
    A sign of a failing iPod.
    Alternatively you can opt to not sync it and keep the music that is on your ipod there but this means you will never be able to update your ipod.
    Hope this helps!

  • Why does the screen on my iPad mini jump around?  Apps open and close, I can't get back to the home screen.  Is my mini possessed?

    Why does the screen on my iPad mini start jumping--larger, smaller--can't close apps.  I reboot and still it happens.  Any suggestions?

    If the unit has NEVER been jailbroke, first try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...  Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

    Because your printer has to be Airprint compatible and connected to WiFi. There are applications, such as Printopia, that will allow you to print through your computer.

  • Why do text messages from my iPad appear to some people as if they came from my email address instead of my phone number? This does not happen when I send text messages from my iPhone.

    Why do text messages from my iPad appear to some people as if they came from my email address instead of my phone number? This does not happen when I send text messages from my iPhone.

    You need to link your iPhone number to Messages - and Facetime if you use it. For Messages go to Settings>Messages>Send and Receive at>You can be reached by iMessage at. If your phone number is showing there, select it as your Contact address. If it doesn't appear in there, take a look at the end of this article for help.

  • Help! my iPod touch bluetooth cannot discover my iPad nor mac air, but it can discover other devices... I don't understand why.  My Mac and my iPad can't discover it, as well... :(

    My iPod touch bluetooth cannot discover my iPad nor mac air, but it can discover other devices... I don't understand why.  My Mac and my iPad can't discover it, as well...

    Thanks for this... I actually wanted to pair my iPad with my iPod touch so I can use the keynote remote app in my iPod touch to control my keynote presentations... I was able to control my presentations through wifi... I wanted to use the bluetooth since internet connection is quite slow.. The app tells me I can connect through bluetooth with my iPad but sadly, it can't... I've been trying to pair them but the can't discover each other... :(

  • Why are the apps on my IPad scattered across the whole thing and when I open them they turn to little rectangles in the corner of the screen and I can't even use them or tap on anything. Also when I turn my iPad it doesn't flip the screen over

    Why are the apps on my IPad scattered across the whole thing and when I open them they turn to little rectangles in the corner of the screen and I can't even use them or tap on anything. Also when I turn my iPad it doesn't flip the screen over.

    Hi The next thing to do is to Restore back to Factory Settings this will get rid of any bugs . After Restore use same Apple ID /Password then you should get all your Apps & data back If you still have this problem make an Appointment at Apple Store . Cheers Brian

  • HT4623 Why I can't update my iPad 2 to the iOS 7

    Why I can't update my iPad 2 to the iOS 7

    Are you trying to update OTA (over the air) on the iPad itself? To do so, you need to have iOS 5.x or above installed. The OTA update feature was added with this version. If you are running below iOS 5.x, you need to use your PC to update the iPad to the newest iOS 7.
    Check your iOS version: Settings>General>About
    The number displayed under "Version" is your current iOS version.

  • Why WiFi so bad when charging iPad 4?

    Why is it that when my iPad 4 (64 GB, wifi only) has a ****** Internet connection when the charging cable is in?
    It only bothered me THIS much, and I must say.. It's not like the lightning connected is some kind of Ethernet cable of some sort.
    I have the latest updates, I have 6.1, it did the same on 6.0... Please, Apple. Internet is important these days..
    Thank you!

    You may have a faulty lightning cord.  Take it back to Apple and get a new one.
