FaceTime Video camera is not working

after updating my OS in Macbook Air, my Video camera is not working. pls suggest me about how to fix that and make video working.

If restarting Mac does not fix, see How to Troubleshoot iSight - Apple Support.
If needed, you could also try Reinstalling OS X.

  • FaceTime HD Camera (Display) not working with most applications

    The Thunderbolt 27" LED Cinema displays built in camera is not working with most applications. The camera does not work with FaceTime, iChat, Skype and Google Talk. FaceTime says "There is no connected camera", even though there is. Weird thing is it DOES work at http://www.testmycam.com. I can't get it to work with any other flash based apps, just testmycam.com.
    My MacBook Pro 17" (late 2011) built in camera works perfectly with everything.
    Things I've already tried:
    - Shutdown
    - Restart
    - disconnect/reconnect
    - removing power from display
    lame, lame, lame. $1k monitor, flippin' webcam doesn't work.

    I think I have found the problem. I decided to go page by page through the forums and found this argument when running a Java program through the console:
    -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true
    So it would be like:
    java -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true SwingSet2
    That works flawlessly, so it has to do with direct draw (So it's either DirectX or my video card drivers which are up to date).

  • My Facetime HD Camera is not working on my MacBook Pro 15" Retina Display.

    I pruchased Macbook Pro 15" Retina Display on 27 Aug, 2012. But the Facetime HD Camera is not wotking. It's black screen when turn on Webcam in Yahoo or Skype. With Facetime, the Facetime Icon just animated but also dimmed after that. For all cases, the Green Led turn on. I have reinstalled OSX Mountain Lion, Resetted SMC ... but still not working. Is there anyone has some issue ? How do I know it's Hardware Failure or just OSX bug ? Please advise? Many thanks

    Try an SMC reset (instruction here). Make sure you read the instructions for the right system, I'm assuming yours would fall under "Resetting the SMC on Mac portables with a battery you should not remove on your own."
    If that doesn't work, the errors you're referencing are usually hardware based. I'd try in another user to make sure it's not an application error (hesitant that this would work as you're saying that the error occurs in multiple apps), but if the SMC doesn't work, I'd recommend making an appointment to get it looked at.

  • Front video camera is not working on my iPad4.

    Just recently noticed my front video camera not working when I tried to facetime with a friend.  They cannot see me, and a blank square comes up as our picture.  When I open facetime the screen is just black.  If I open the camera, then switch to video, then switch to front the shutter closes and never opens. 
    I have tried to restart and also reboot.  Neither have worked.
    Thanks.

    Have you tried closing the Camera app via the taskbar and seeing if it works when you re-open the app ? From the home screen (i.e. not with the Camera app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Camera app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.

  • Video/Camera light not working after upgrade to 975

    Hi,
    After I upgraded to the latest OS release from Verizon (v5.0.0.975) on my Tour, the light for both my video recorder or camera no longer work. I have done battery pulls and checked the options for each (both set to ON).
    I tried searching here first, but didn't find anything. However, a Google search shows posts on other forums about this issue.
    I contacted Verizon Support and the person was not able to help. She asked me to go into Options for my video camera and apparently some of the settings have also been removed. So, I asked her to please report this to RIM Support. She mentioned downgrading my OS, which I had already considered. But, since this OS seems stable and I don't use my cameras that much, I'll ride it out for now.
    If anyone else is having the same problem, I would encourage you to contact your carriers support and report this. Hopefully RIM will have a fix for this available soon.
    Thanks,
    RayK

  • I upgrade my iph4 to ios 7.1.2 and the microphone is not working on video camera, is not working anymor also the microfon on speaker mode, please help me

    Hy guys, i upgrade my ios 7.1.1 to 7.1.2 and now iths not working anymore my microphone on video record, the camera is working , is recording but without sound, and also the microphone on speaker, when i activat the speaker the microphon is not working. I do a full reset on my iph but still not working , also my girlfriend have same problem.Please help me, thx.

    To rule out a software issue, try to set it up as new device, without using the latest backup, explained in this article:
    How to back up your data and set up as a new device
    If this does not help, the problem might be hardware related and the phone needs to be serviced by Apple or an Authorized Apple Service Provider:

  • Video camera does not work firefox 8.0.1 with google chat

    I have a macbook pro os x 10.7.2 . I have the latest google video plugins ....also I removed and tried reinstalling the plugin for video chat. I have a built in camera. So when I go to google/mail settings, and check my settings, I cant see myself in the video box. If I video chat with someone else, they can see me, but I cant see myself.
    If I use Safari or google crome for my browser, google video chat works great. I can see myself and see the person I am video chatting with.
    So, I think it's a problem with the Firefox browser. I am using 8.0.1
    thanks
    Walt

    You can [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Uninstalling%20Firefox?s=uninstall+firefox&r=0&as=s uninstall] Firefox 8 first before you downgrade to Firefox 7. However, when you uninstall, make sure that you '''don't''' choose the option "'''Remove my Firefox Personal Data'''".
    You can access a list of [ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/ Previous Versions of Firefox], however, note that Firefox recommends using the latest version since older version may have security and safety vulnerabilities.
    '''P.S:''' it may be a good idea to create a Restore Point before you uninstall, in case you mess up, in which case you can just restore and start over.

    Webcam not working for Macbook Air 2013 after upgrading to OSX Mavericks? Yahoo/ Google/Skype cam chats not working. Facetime works though. Any updates of Mavericks released to fix this?

    I have a MacBook Pro Retina display: 15.4-inch late 2015 with OS X Mavericks install, only on second week. 
    Insight works on FaceTime, Skype, but yahoo program does not show insight cam in dropped down.
    Now when I got my new MacBook Pro, I down loaded all new Skype (worked tested), FaceTime (Worked Tested), Yahoo (not worked)
    Fix:
    With the new Maverick you have to use there messager program Version 8.0 (4218). Once I add my yahoo account video works again.
    It also supported AOL, AIM, Google Talk, Jabber.
    Guess I miss it frist time... hope this helps...
