Camera and Gallery are not working

I started having issues with my phone on Saturday. When I open my camera it does not give me the option to take a picture and when I open the gallery I get a blank screen. My pictures are saved on a SD card and they are not showing either. I finally got them to show today when I cleared the cache, but if I try to select anything I get a message that says "The process android.process.media has stopped" Can anyone help?

Re: Camera and Gallery are not working

Welcome to Android Central! When you open the Camera app, does the viewfinder work but there's just not shutter release button? Or is it a blank screen? Do you mean that you wiped the cache partition, or just cleared the app cache?

It might be a corrupt SD card issue. Unmount the card (in Settings>Storage), remove it, and insert it into your computer. Run chkdsk to look for bad sectors: http://forums.androidcentral.com/am...guide-using-chkdsk-fix-corrupted-sd-card.html. Try a different card.
