After updating my hp pavilion g6-1b160 to windows 8 I cannot locate my built-in webcam

cannot locate my built-in web cam after updating my hp laptop to windows 8

Hi candykay,
I understand that after upgrading to Windows 8 you can no longer locate you built-in Webcam on your HP Pavilion g6-1b60us Notebook PC. I will try my best to help you with this problem.
Here is a document for Webcam Troubleshooting (Windows 8) that has a section for can't find the webcam or webcam software.
I hope this information helps, please let me know how it goes.
Thank you and have a nice day!
I worked on behalf of HP.

    Hi tania184,
    Have you contacted your email provider to make sure there are no problems on their end? If they say their email servers are working properly, check the outgoing and incoming mail servers entries on your iPhone to make sure both are entered correctly. Enter the outgoing mail server even if the account setup indicates that is optional.

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • Problems after updating to 11.1.3.8 on Windows 8.1 Pro

    Hi,
    After updating my iTunes to the latest version 11.1.3.8 under Windows 8.1 Pro, iTunes in opening fine, but once I start trying to access the Store or my account or to run a diagnostic, iTunes shutts down and the windows message appears advising that a problem occurred on this program and same will be shutt down.
    Has somebody faced same problem? Any solution for it?Thanks

    bman 58, it did help, thank you. I battled this problem for over a month and your solution solved it. Previous recommendations (including two genius bar visits) to uninstall/reinstall iTunes lead to more problems, including iTunes failing to open with an error stating "iTunes cannot open 'itunes library.itl' because it was created with a more recent version of iTunes." Other forum posts to uninstall and reinstall Adobe Flash and Java got iTunes back to opening, but again crashing when trying to access the store. Copying the QTMovieWin.dll file put iTunes back to rights.

  • After updating to the new ios i can Undock ipad but cannot move it across the screen anymore! I'm using the ipad 3. Help anyone??

    Hello
    After updating to the new iOS on my ipad 3 I find that I can no longer move the undocked keyboard across the screen to my desired location as I used to. Does anyone else have the same issue?

    Here's the writeup from the iOS 6 Manual for iPad about moving and splitting the keyboard:
    Keyboard layouts
    On iPad, you can type with a split keyboard that’s at the bottom of the screen, or undocked and in the middle of the screen.
    Adjust the keyboard: Touch and hold , then:
    Use a split keyboard: Slide your finger to Split, then release.
    Move the keyboard to the middle of the screen: Slide your finger to Undock, then release.
    Return to a full keyboard: Slide your finger to Dock and Merge, then release.
    Return a full keyboard to the bottom of the screen: Slide your finger to Dock, then release. Turn Split Keyboard on or off: Go to Settings > General > Keyboard > Split Keyboard.

  • After updating to FireFox 16.0.1 in Windows, the address bar stopped working, as well as the search bar, though not immediately. Reinstall didn't fix it.

    Initially I downloaded an AOL-optimized version, but when the problems came up I reinstalled the regular version and it was fine. Two days ago it randomly started again. Address bar won't go anywhere with enter or pressing the arrow button, and the search bar has no search engine. Trying add a search engine by clicking "manage search engines" doesn't help; the "add search enginges" button is unresponsive and there are none in the list to choose from. I uninstalled everything including my customizations and personal settings and reinstalled, which still didn't help. I tried disabling all the plugins and that didn't work either. I even tried searching from the FireFox home page search, since at that point it was the only page I could get to, and even that wouldn't search. The most recent add-on I downloaded was the Evernote Web Clipper I think, but it didn't seem to coincide with the start of the problems.
    Update: I ran a malware program (MalWareBytes) and it came up with nothing. I also got back into FireFox to get the Troubleshooting Information and added it in. In addition, here's my complete plugin/extension list:
    Plugins:
    Foxit Reader Plugin for Mozilla 2.2.1.530
    Google Earth Plugin 6.2.0.5788
    Google Update 1.3.21.123
    Java Deployment Toolkit 7.0.90.5 10.9.2.5

    Microsoft Office 2010 14.0.4730.1010
    Microsoft Windows Media Services 4.1.0.3917
    Shockwave Flash 11.4.402.287

    Sorry you are having problems. First of all try Fifrefox's safemode.
    *[[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]
    If that works post back for further advice.
    Next step, if safe mode did not work.
    <u>First: Try a clean install, <sub>(you have had a none standard version installed previously)</sub></u><br /> that involves deleting the program files. Then if necessary try troubleshooting by creating and using a clean empty Firefox profile.
    See
    * this recent post [/questions/940399#answer-377134]
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Clean_reinstall
    <u>Second: try a New Profile</u>
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Manager#Creating_a_new_profile
    * this will be an additional profile, it is still worth backing up any existing or currently working profile on a regular basis
    **[[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
    * Until you are absolutely confident about the repercussions I suggest
    ** always use an empty folder when creating a new profile
    ** never delete or rename profiles, just disable or remove shortcuts
    ** after creating a new test profile open it and check for any addons or plugins that may be have been included by default

  • After update to 10.6.3 the itunes window pops up every minute by itself.

    The popup of itunes after the recent update to 10.6.3 is very irritating. Is there any way to fix this. Is this happening to every one???

    Pahu
    I updated to 10.6.3 and the new Canon drivers from Software Update last night. After that, could no longer print wirelessly to Canon MP640. Message said "communication error". I reset the printing system and re-added the printer. Printer works fine wirelessly after that, but now I can no longer add the scanner. The scanner did not show up on the Print/Fax Prefs in System Preferences in Wireless Mode.
    In USB mode, then both printer and scanner functions are available.
    Any thoughts on how I could get the scanner to work wirelessly again?

  • Bug after updating User Logon Account (using AD Integrated Windows Authentication)

    Hello,
    I am using Integrated Windows Authentication in Project Server. And I have changed one user Active Directory (AD) useraccount name…
    Then when I go to "Manage Users" page in Project Server, I see that the new data information wasn’t updated with "Active Directory Enterprise Resource Pool Synchronization" (I forced the Synchronization and still nothing aspens)…
    So I checked the "Prevent Active Directory synchronization" checkbox for this user (in Project Server), and I changed the "User logon account" field manually, then after I save, the logon account isn’t uploaded… It shows the previous useraccount
    name.
    The only change made in the AD account name was that we changed the "Ç" character to "C".
    In the AD this accountname no longer have the "Ç" character...
    So why does the accountname in Project Server shows the "Ç" character instead of "C"?

    Hi Mario,
    The change is actually not reflecting in SharePoint. If I am not wrong, you are actually talking about the display name on the top right side of the page which is actually pulled from SharePoint content database where PWA site collection is residing.
    If that is the case, then you will have to delete the user from SharePoint and add him back. Or, if you need more details on how to do this, you can open a case with MS.

  • Crackling sound after updating to Itunes 10.2.1 on Windows 7 Laptop

    I recently upgraded to Itunes 10.2.1 on my laptop. Ever since this update, I have been getting a crackling sound whenever I play audio or video.
    I know its not my Bose Companion 5s because I don't get this problem with VLC player or Windows Media Player. Its really annoying because I can't play Itunes movies or shows on those players and have to sit through the crackling sound.
    Anyone else have this problem? Anyone got any solutions for this? Thank you for your help.

    DO you by any chance have Norton?
    I have seen one report that was associated with an unspecified Norton product. If so it might be worth briefly disabling it to see if that makes a difference.
    Also I have seen one report of skipping rather than crackling associated with continuous backup.
    Here is the Apple help on play back problems in case you haven't seen it:

  • Windows 7 Bootcamp is no longer available in startup after updating to Yosemite 10.10

    I updated my MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013) and then after updating I could no longer see my Windows 7 bootcamp when starting up.  I followed this tutorial to try to get it too work again without losing any information: Windows 7 Removed after update Yosemite.  I got to the part where we rebuild the MBR, but I got to part 8 and then it said that partition 4 is either too big or does not exist. 
    I do not know what to do from here and was wondering if I had done something wrong and/or what I can do to fix it?
    Thanks in advance

    You seem to have found the correct partition. The following table has your values. (ASC thinks I have invalid characters in my table, so this is a screen shot of the MS Excel spreadsheet).
    Leave your Testdisk display and start a new Terminal Window. You need to use the following steps. If you see any error messages during the following steps, please stop and post back here with the error message. The following steps have values from your Testdisk output (and you can verify) in Steps 7 and 8.
    Rebuild GPT4 using start/end offsets
    Sudo gdisk /dev/rdisk0
    P  (print the full list of parts)
    D  (delete)
    4  (part 4)
    N  (new part)
    4   (part 4)
    589682688 - Start offset in bytes  (start point for Bootcamp part)
    +387422201 -  (Size offset as opposed to End offset)
    0700     (Windows part type)
    P           (print list of all parts just to see what changes will be made)
    W         (Write the new GPT)
    Y           (Yes! really write the new GPT)
      This will delete and re-write the GPT partition info for /dev/disk0s4.
    Rebuild MBR to match the new GPT information thus resetting the Hybrid MBR. Use defaults for other questions (like partition codes). The only values that need modifications are the Boot flags and step 6. Accept all other defaults that Gdisk offers.
    Sudo gdisk /dev/disk0
    P  (Print list of parts)
    R   (Recover)
    H (chooses Hybrid)
    Partitions numbers to be hybridized: 2 3 4
    Y (Good for GRUB question)
    N (part 2 boot flag)
    N (part 3 boot flag)
    Y  (part 4 boot flag make NTFS bootable partition)
    W  (Write the new MBR)
    Y    (Yes! write the new MBR)
    Reboot
    Here is a sample Q and A for the second set of Gdisk steps.
    Place EFI GPT (0xEE) partition first in MBR (good for GRUB)? (Y/N): Y
    Creating entry for GPT partition #2 (MBR partition #2)
    Enter an MBR hex code (default AF): Press Enter/Return
    Set the bootable flag? (Y/N): N
    Creating entry for GPT partition #3 (MBR partition #3)
    Enter an MBR hex code (default AB): Press Enter/Return
    Set the bootable flag? (Y/N): N
    Creating entry for GPT partition #4 (MBR partition #4)
    Enter an MBR hex code (default 07): Press Enter/Return
    Set the bootable flag? (Y/N): Y
    Test 1 - Does Bootcamp Volume show up in Finder?
    Test 2 - Can you see files in Bootcamp Volume?
    Test 3 - Can you select Bootcamp in System Preferences -> Startup Disk?
    Test 4 - If Test 3 is successful, select Bootcamp and Click Restart.
