Camera stopped working on my 4S

[karen m]

Any idea why this happened? I haven't dropped the phone or gotten it wet or anything like that, I've had it for a month . When I press the camera icon the screen just goes black. So do I need to return this iPhone or is there a way to fix it?


Thanks!!

Try restarting it by holding the Home and Sleep buttons till you see the Apple icon. If that fails Restore it using iTunes, ensure you back it up first and have all media files backed up in your iTunes Library as well. If it still doesn't work it is probably a hardware issue and should be returned if still under warranty.

A friend of mine got such a problem, he had to restore the device through the iTunes! You can try that as well, I hope that will work for you!
