I had this problem last week and fixed it this way but I have this problem again!


Apple, you need to fix this properly not just with a reset and restore!!

I've had so much hassle with resetting all my settings back to default it's not worth going through that pain to temporarily get the front facing camera to work.


Fix this ASAP Apple! Steve Jobs must be turning in his grave.

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.
