My apps won't let me access my photos to use in apps, like instagram and pinterest, they keep saying go change privacy settings but when I go into the privacy setting nothing comes up.

Here is the solution. Open the pinterest app. Click on the camera icon. When it opens your camera click on library and it will ask to access your photos and you agree. Bingo your photos and camera roll will appear. Holla!

Well I tried tgat but when I go into restrictions it comes up with a password and I don't know the password please help me!

Even when i do that the apps don’t pop up at all and there’s nothing for me to choose at all

Are you going to Settings > Privacy > ????

have you gone to settings/general/restrictions then down to the privacy section and tapped on PHOTOS does it have Allow Changes ticked? Then go to settings/privacy tap on Privacy then tap on photos and make sure you have turned on access to photos for the apps that you want to have access

Did you go into Restrictions as Ocean20 suggested?

Next try a Reset: Hold down the Home and sleep buttons, wait for the Apple Logo, let go of the buttons.

If that doesn't work Restore it in iTunes from your backup.

Go ahead and back it up and Restore it from your backup.

If u go to settings>private >photos ..an that's How I did it

I had the smae problem as you and what i did was to go to settings>general>>reset then tapped on reset location & privacy which then when i went to the app and it asked again to have access to my photos and the problem was fixed
