Everytime I open my camera it always say that it cannot open and try closing other application first and try opening again the camera but I'm pretty sure I've already close all of my applications. What should I do?

Your default storing of images is perhaps phone memory. If you have sd card in your phone then change the storing of images in MEMORY CARD. May be this way your prob could be fix up.

could not start the camera close other applications and try opening the camera again blackberry

when i go on my blackberry 8520 camera it says please close any other open applications and try again i turned off the phone than back on again but it says the same message

Hi, when a camera says could not open the camera close other application and try again ,means that either to much application where opened at a tie or the camera is corrupted.

First, scan through phone and see if unnecessary applications where open,If not, that means the camera is faulty and will eeed to be replayed.

Hi,

This is what you should do, press and hold the menu key.. you'll get a display in a rectangular form with all programs that are currently running on your blackberry.

You can scroll through the open applications and for you to close all running applications, you'll have to click on your trick ball to get you to that open application and then you close it.

Go over the process of holding the menu key for about 10 seconds again until the rectangular window opens with applications that are currently open.

Click on another program and close it.... do this for all the applications until your have about 4 applications running. Once it's reduced to this you would be able run your camera.

Regards

if you hold down the blackberry button....(dots).....a menu will pop up ....those are all the apps the you still have open...go into all of them and make sure you manually close them out....choosing the close selection on the menu....and ur camera should come right back on...the same happened to me......

OMFG lol!. I just saw this on pinstack.com

My camera had hte same problem for months and this just fixed it!!

1)Remove back cover

2)Press gently, but firmly on lense (you should hear a click)

3)Battery Pull

Apparently if dropped at all, the camera can shift!!

Cheers, Imma go take some pictures after months of not being able to!

thanks again for Using FixYa KeepWarm Out There ;)

I had this problem and I've tried everything posted and nothing worked so I just started messing around with my phone and may have figured it out. Here's what I did.
NOTE: I AM NOT RESPOSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS AND YOU ARE SOLEY DOING THIS ON YOUR OWN AT YOUR OWN RESPOSIBLITY. Good Luck

1. Click the Menu Button
2. Scroll to Options Icon (the wrench) and click it
3. Click Advanced Options
4. Click Applications and wait for the Apps to load.
5. Scroll down and delete the apps that you dont need (see what I deleted)
6. I first deleted ICQ Messanger by scrolling over it and selecting the menu button then clicked delete, then clicked Yes and let it reboot
7. After it rebooted I clicked the Camera button on the side and it worked after I rebooted
8. Then I went back in and deleted Yahoo Messanger and let it reboot again. (This is up to you)
9. Last I deleted Windows Live Messenger and let reboot once again. (This is up to you)
I deleted these because I didnt use them anways. These were the only 3 apps that I deleted since I never used them. If you want, you could even delete Brick Breaker if you dont play it but I wouldnt delete any other Apps other than these.

Use a 2GB memory card.
Only store applications on your PHONE memory.
Pics, Videos etc... store on your memory CARD.
Dont open too many applications at a time.
