Follow these steps to re-install the driver for the webcam. You will need to be logged in as an Administrator or have an Administrator password ready.
1. Click the Windows Start button.
2. Click Control Panel, System and Maintenance and then Device Manager.
3. Right-click on Chicony USB 2.0 Camera and select Update Driver Software. A yellow exclamation point indicates that the camera is recognized by Windows but is not working properly, probably because of problem with the device driver
4. Select Browse my computer for the driver software.
5. Select Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer.
6. Select USB Video Device from the list, and click Next.
7. If the message “Windows encountered a problem installing the driver software for your device” appears, click Close.
8. Restart Windows.

Satellite A215-S7444 built-in webcam not working with MSN / Skype

Hi, I've just bought my laptop and right after installing the newest MSN and Skype, the video is not working with these programs. I tried to configure the video settings inside MSN and it told that "windows cannot connect to this webcam. It's in currently in use or not plugged in". The webcam is built-in, a Chicony USB 2.0.
Any hints ??

Hi there,
maybe you should download the webcam software for your machine from the toshiba driver download site and install it. The webcam works but the software sometimes behaves really weird so you just have to reinstall it. Maybe its an good idea to uninstall the old software before...
Greetings

IChat, Skype & Yahoo webcam not working?

Hello,
A few days ago I updated my Macbook Pro as it had some small updates to run. Before the updates, my built in webcam and external Microsoft LifeCam both worked with all three applications (iChat, Skype & Yahoo). After the updates, only my built-in webcam would work. Later that day, after me playing around (with no experience) I lost all webcams, built-in and external to all three applications.
Today, after turning my Macbook Pro on my iChat works with both webcam (don't ask how I got this to happen).
But...
Yahoo says "video source - none" to both webcams
and skype says "no video camera connected"
Can anyone please provide assistance?
Thanks
Ryan

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)

It also supported AOL, AIM, Google Talk, Jabber.

First try opening multi tasking by double clicking the home button and scroll through until you fine weather app, hold it until it start bouncing and then delete it. Then try opening it again and see if it is working. If not repeat the previous step and then reset your device by holding the home button and the lock button simultaneity until screen goes black then release. Wait until device restarts and try the app again. If the problem still exists than back up the device either on its home computer or through iCloud reinstall the software.

Hp pavilion dv6-3151sf built-in speaker not working

Need help on hp pavilion dv6-3151sf built in speakers not working but can hear sound using the headphone. Is there a service manual on how to replace or check the speakers?

Hi there @JINGDOMS
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! It is a great place to find the help you need, both from other users, HP experts and other support personnel.
In answer to your question about the service manual, there sure is, and I am happy to help you with this.
You can find it on the support page for your model, or just use this link: HP Pavilion dv6 Entertainment PC - Maintenance and Service Guide.
Within the service guide you will find the replacement instructions for the individual assemblies, and also the part numbers. I would start with just checking the connection to make sure it is good, and if there is still no sound from the speakers, you can also try this page as well, before replacing the part.
No Sound from the Speakers (Windows 7)
If you determine that is a faulty speaker and you want to get replacement parts, take a took at this page:
HP Notebook PCs - Ordering HP Certified Replacement Parts
Let me know if you need any further assistance.

My Aspire 5750-6438 built in microphone not working.

My Aspire 5750-6438 built in microphone not working. My OS is windows 7 64-bit. I have updated all the driver. Built in microphone is not even recognized in the sound setting.

welly267,
Go into the device manager and check to see if there is a yellow or red icon next to your built-in microphone. If there is a red one, it's probably disabled, see if you can enable it. If it is yellow, right click to uninstall it, then restart your notebook to see if it installs correct and starts working. Look through these steps if it does start showing up in the sound manager.
If it does not, you can try to remember when it worked last and try a system restore. If you cannot remember, you might have a hardware problem or can try to perform a recovery as a last resort to see if that solves it.

Microphone and Webcam not working/Webcam not recognized by YouCam

Hello,
I have a dv7-6c95dx and my YouCam program tells me that it does not recognize my integrated webcam. I have read all of the webcam forums on this site and clicked on all of the links people have posted in the forums. I have uninstalled the CyberLink YouCam program and it still comes up with the same messages. The webcam also does not show up in my device manager. The microphone is malfunction as well, it will not work any any programs including skype.
I have heard that the webcam can come unplugged internally, will that also cause the microphone to stop working? I have run out of options and I do not want to pay anyone to fix it. I would appreciate any advice on this subject.

Hi DillOrNoDill,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have read your thread on your HP Pavilion dv7-6c95dx Notebook and sound and microphone issues and Webcam not working correctly. I would be happy to assist if needed. Try these steps first.
1. Right click speaker icon (right hand corner)
2. Select Playback devices
3. Right click Speakers
4. Enable it and set as Default
5. Click Apply/Ok
You could also try Microsoft troubleshooter located on your Notebook.
Here is a document on WebCam troubleshooting. The Webcam will be listed in your device manager under Imaging devices. You should be able to click the action button and scan for new hardware.
Hope this helps.
Thanks.

Dell SP2008WFP monitor with built in webcam - webcam not working

Just set up the new SP2008WFP monitor from Dell with the built in webcam to use with my Ti 500mhz powerbook. At first it told me the camera was in use by another application, but after installing iChatUSBCam I was able to get it to show a black screen instead. Microphone works fine. I tried the same with my newer Core 2 Duo macbook pro and was able to get a picture from iChat from the built in monitor camera with IChatUSBCam installed (evocam also gave me a picture right off the bat). My assumption is that there is an issue with the older mac. Not sure why that would be and if there are any solutions for it. I tried zapping pram and trashing ichat prefs but to no avail. Anyone have any other suggestions?
Another issue with the monitor is that at the suggested resolution of 1680x1050 the image is scooted about 4 inches to the right with no way of correcting. I have to set it to 1600x1000 to get a centered desktop. Again, not a problem when connected to the newer macbook pro. Are both these issues a sign of a video card issue?

The G4 Titanium was top of the bill when it was introduced, and still is a good laptop. However it would not be a good sign if it still was cause the MBP would not be top of the bill. To put it simple it has aged and the processing power is not enough to deliver the HiRes needed to do todays state of the art screens. Use the MBP for the external screen, it does the trick even when it has deliver the high resolution twice and then some. For nostalgia's sake you can flash back to it's introduction by the master of ceremony, you wouldn't say it is more than 6 years ago.

Yoga 2 Pro: Webcam not working with Skype?

Hi all, weird problem. For some reason skype cannot load the webcam built into the Yoga 2 Pro.
It works in the Windows 8 camera app just fine.
I formatted and everything and it will just not work.
IT WAS WORKING two days ago, that's why I'm so confused. I've installed the drivers on the support page and have had 0 luck.
I'm not sure if this is a permission thing or what..
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Unfortunately I've reinstalled the driver after uninstalling it from the device manager 10 times. I also formatted and reinstalled, but that didn't fix anything.
The camera works for the camera app + the webcam test online. I've tried rollback on the drivers, and installing earlier versions of skype with no luck.
Very strange, all it does is show the loading sign, and never loads.
This is the desktop version of skype btw. I'm going to try it with the non-dekstop version tonight and see if it works.
EDIT: Is there any other camera source besides 'Lenovo EasyCamera'? Their are two drivers on the drivers page, which one is recommended?
