Why is the screen black when I go to open my camera

Can someone please tell me if they have
Had this problem or knows how to fix it
When I try to open my camera the screen
It's totally black the only way I wan see my
Pictures is to look in my photo file... Please
Help!!!!

I did have this issue a while back. Mine was solved by navigating to the Camera, then clicking Photos and browsing to another photo, then swapping back to the camera icon.
Hopefully it fixes yours too! Otherwise it could be hardware related (rather than software).

    Why is the screen bluring when i stream a movie I rent fron itunes?

    What is the year and model and screen size, amount of RAM in your iMac?
    Do you use a broadband Internet connection? Do you use WiFi on your iMac with wireless router or Airport router?
    Internet streaming data speeds are dependent on how many users are streaming data on the same network at the same periods of time as you are.

  • Why does the screen unlock when using voice dialer on iphone 5S?

    Here's the scenario I'm referring to:  my iphone is in my pocket with the screen locked and headphones plugged in. I toggle the mic switch and use voice control to place a phone call. On every other iphone I have owned, the screen stays locked. On the 5S, the screen unlocks when the call begins, making the end call button or other phone buttons able to be activated accidentally by my leg.
    Why did they change this feature on the 5S?  The iphone 5 stays locked in the same scenario. Just updated to 7.0.4 and it still hasn't been fixed. Is there a way to fix this issue?

    Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
    Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

  • HT1390 why is the screen blank when i play my rental

    I had a terrible day and was looking forward to watching a film I had prepped and rented at noon. I just clicked play on the rental and the screen is a taupe color with black widescreen banners on the top and bottom. no matter where I click on the time bar below, this is the ONLY DISPLAY. WHAT THE ****. Why is it so hard to find an apple/itunes professional to talk to. If you can take my money, you can sure as **** deliver a non-buggy frigging product. I mean, AMIRITE?????
    sincerely,
    a very unsatisfied customer,

    and why are they asking me to choose a community for "ipod touch" "itunes for windows" "apple TV" "using ipad". NONE OF THIS APPLIES. This is so infuriating.

    Go here to raise the issue.

    (alternatively use the Report a Problem link via your Purchase History in your iTunes account on a computer).
    What film is it? Is it definitely the whole movie and not some weird arty couple of minutes of blank video?
    If you give the name of the film you may find someone who has rneted/bought it and can say if they've had an issue too.
    I would be tempted to restart AppleTV (either by unpowering or holding menu and down keys on remote together for 6 secs), but it may need to redownload/rebuffer if you don't have fast enough internet.
    Also, have you used AppleTV successfully to rent in the past?

  • Why is the screen fading when I move my iPad2 horizontally?

    Every time I move my iPad2 horizontally, the screen fades to the point where it can hardly be seen. It restores when it is moved back vertically. Any ideas?

    Have you tried a reset to see if that helps ? 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.

    Hi there Fgonzalez2015,
    You may find the camera troubleshooting steps in the article below helpful.
    Get help with the camera on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    You see a closed lens or black screen
    If you see a closed lens or black screen when you open the Camera app, try these steps:
    Make sure that there’s nothing blocking the camera lens. If you’re using a case, try removing it.
    Force the app to close, then open the Camera app again.
    Restart your device, then open the Camera app again.
    If your device has a front and rear camera, try both cameras by tapping the camera swap icon . If you see the closed lens or black screen on only one camera, take your device to an Apple Retail Store or Authorized Service Provider for more help.

    - Charge the iPod for half an hour.  Then reset the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - if still not working, connect to your computer. If iTunes sees the iPod, restore the iPod.
    - If still problem, place the iPod in recovery mode and then try to restore the iPod.  For recovery mod see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

  • Why dosen't the screen turn when i turn the ipad

    why dosen't the screen turn when i turn the ipad

    If you see a lock icon in the upper right corner of the screen - then the screen orientation is locked.
    Try the side switch above the volume rocker first and see if that unlocks the screen. If that doesn't do it, double tap the home button and swipe to the right and look for the lock icon all the way to the left.
    If the screen is unlocked but still will not rotate, reset the iPad.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the button

  • Why does the screen flicker on new MacBook Air when I scroll?

    I just bought a new MacBook Air a few days ago.  I notice that the screen flickers when I scroll and is not anywhere near as smooth as on my old MacBook Pro.

    I've experimented with this a little more.  I don't think the screen is flickering necessarily but the scrolling is not always as smooth as I remember it on other computers I have used.  The text looks jumpy.  Maybe it's the operating system?  I think it happens more if there is a lot of information to scroll through.
    Is this normal?

    I would like to inquire about how I could have my iPad 2 repaired or replaced. I bought it With a credit card via apple store website last June 19 of this year. At first, I already noticed a little white spot in the middle of the screen visible when the display on screen is dark. I thought this was okay. Now, My problem with it is that, it now has green discolorations at the center whenever the screen display is black or dark I.e. When a website's color is black or dark or whenever I go to the search interface.
    I am from the Philippines.
    Please attend to this inquiry as promptly as possible. I'm sorry I have to send it here since I cannot see any email or inquiry page on the apple website. I also cannot reach the toll free number on my mobile phone.
    Thank you very much.

  • Why is the screen of the 5S so fragile?

    Why is the screen of the 5S so fragile?

    Gorilla Glass is actually quite tough. But being glass it can still break. A sharp pointed impact will very likely fracture the glass into multiple cracks. Dropping on the edge of the device may produce a crack across the device. A case will help.
    When you buy the device you get Applecare+. One incident of broken glass will more than recoup the cost of Applecare+. Applecare+ allows two incidents within a two year period plus extends your device warranty by an additional year. For an expensive device adding such coverage would seem to be a good idea.
