Can I turn off Webcam Light?

LAPTOP:
HP ENVY SPECTRE 14T-3100 NOTEBOOK
WINDOWS:
Window 8.1, preferred over 8.0
QUESTION:
Is there any way to turn off the LED light next to my webcam?
The build quality of the laptop allows for light to pass over the webcam, creating a terrible picture from it.

Hello
What I meant is that when I am using the webecam, only one light adjacent to the webcam is on. The light on the other side of the webcam is never on. Is there a way to do it?

Satellite A660 How can i turn off the lighting of the power button?

Hello, I recently bought a new Toshiba A660-1FL.
However bothers me is the lighting of the multimedia keys, if I work in the dark.
In Bios I could turn off the led illumination, but the power on/off button is still lighting,that distracts me when i am working.
This notebook has two power LED, so the power on lighting is in my opinion, unnecessary.
My question is: How can i turn off the lighting of the power button?

Here you can see the LED with the same function in front of you: http://s3.imgimg.de/uploads/t009aae62jpg.jpg
Yes in fact, the difference is color, design, but also location and brightness of the LED.
For me, this LED is too bright and it is distracting in the dark, as you can see here: http://s3.imgimg.de/uploads/leddf570760jpg.jpg
I was today at a local electronics store, and saw that Toshiba has the brightest Power LED on A660, but why it must be placed under the LCD and not in the front as in my old notebook Toshiba A210.
I also had the idea with a tape, but it would look ugly, and it must be removable without residue.
P.S. Also the fingerprints on the glossy keyboard do not look nice.

Can't turn off webcam

Hello,
I have Creative Video Blaster WebCam 5 and it has been working just fine until now. The green led is on all the time and programs like Skype etc. say that the camera is in use by another program although there is no other program active. I have restarted the computer, but still the same problem. I have also uninstalled Webcam monitor, Webcam control and drivers and reinstalled them again.
Any suggestions how to solve this?
Best regards,
Marcus

Download the latest version of Skype: http://www.skype.com/go/getskype If this does not help, goto Dells driver download page, and download the newer drivers (if any, check device manager (rightclick my computer > manage > device manager > doubleclick each item and choose driver tab to se the date). From device manager, you can also remove (uninstall) the cam, reboot and Windows should find it again, and so should Skype. Also make sure your computer is up to date with the latest fixes (also optionals) from windows update), this includes Internet explorer. Also do update flashplayer (if you have not done so) to patch the recent securety holes (Skype uses IE even if you do not).: https://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/latest/help/install_flash_player_ax.exe Be adviced that Dell liste your computer as not tested for Windows 10, so if you are not confident in that you may fix any issues that arises after an upgrade, please wait to upgrade a while.

How can I turn off the green light indicator on my AirPort Express?

How can I turn off the green light indicator on my AirPort Express? It really annoys me.

The Zed,
You have two options and you probably won't like any of them.
Using the Airport Utility, click on the AE then "Base Station", then "Options". That will bring up two options for you AE green light, either keep it green at all times or only light up when it is being used.
The second option is put some tape over it.
Hope this helps.

How can I turn off the LED light? It's constantly on.

If anyone can give me some help, that would be tremendous. How can I turn off the LED light as it's contstantly turned on???

If a reset does not work, then the next steps in user troubleshooting are restore from a backup and if that doesn't work, then restore as a new device. If that doesn't work, then you can make an appointment to take the device to the Apple store and have the hardware checked.
If you live close to an Apple store, you could go there first, but they will probably ask if you have done a restore and would do one there, so make sure you have backed up and synced all of your data.

Satellite L500D-11J - How can I turn off the microphone?

Hi,
I have a similar problem with the microphone. Suddenly it turned on, resonating with the loudspeakers. When skyping this didn't work anymore. I have a SATELLITE PRO L500D-11J. What to do?
Is the microphone indeed intergrated with the webcam? How can I put of the microphone while keeping the loudspeakers on?

Hey,
Theoretically the microphone can be turned off in Volume settings of Windows. Therefore you have to select the input devices and disable it there Thats all! :)
Furthermore the microphone is a part of the webcam and therefore you can update the webcam driver. Normally the microphone will be turned on if you use the webcam.

Can't turn off face tracking on Live! Ultra for Notebooks

Please help! I've installed Live! Ultra for Notebooks and it works reasonably well, except for the fact that I can't turn off the Face Tracking feature.
When I installed everything, I selected "Smart", but I hate the way that the camera keeps panning off to different parts of the room. So, I just want to turn this feature OFF.
But every time I open the Face Tracking Utility, or go to the screen via "Tools," I can click "off". But, it doesn't actually turn off; the camera still keeps panning off to the far corners of the room. And the next time I access the Face Tracking Utility again, it has defaulted back to "Smart". Any suggestions on how to disable this feature?
My system is as follows:
Dell Inspiron 700M
Intel Pentium M 2.00 GHz processor
Windows XP Home Edition, service pack 2
Happy new year & thanks in advance..

Finally figured it out. In case anyone else has the same problem of your computer ignoring changes in the Face Tracking Utility screen, try this:
Go to Webcam Center. Click on "Capture" then the "Source" tab, one of two discrete grey tabs just above the video screen.
Under "Extended Settings" you have the options for face tracking: off, continuous or smart. Click it and your computer should actually hold onto this setting until you change it again!
Good luck.

TS1578 I can't turn off caps on my air ... It's driving me crazy !

Pls help ... No matter what I do I can't turn off caps on my mac air ... Help

Your caps lock may be physically stuck on in which case you may need to use Apple Warranty to get it fixed. Is the little green light on the Caps Lock key illuminated? Does it go off if you press the caps lock key?
Before taking it in to Apple, first try switching the computer off and then back on again - this may reset it.
If not, try a PRAM reset:

How can I turn off or dim the keyboard backlight?

I have a new HP Envy 14 Ultrabook. It has a backlit keyboard. I know many people like that "feature", but I don't. I assumed it would be easy to turn off the light in the control panel (e.g., in the device's settings), but there is no option. I can hit the F5 key to turn off the general lighting, but then that F5 key glows blindingly bright all the time. I want to either completely disable the keyboard backlights, or equivalently set the light level to be dim to the point of being completely off. But I can't find any setting to do that in the power options, device properties, etc. Nor has this question been satisfactorily answered in any other forums that I could find. Thanks in advance for your help.

I haven't tried this on a laptop but I've used it on all kinds of too-bright led's like on the electric toothbrush or the HEPA filter or modem, etc.: Take some nail polish and paint the bulb. A dark color or lighter color depending on how much light you want to block. Sometimes I paint the lights on things completely with dark nail polish and I've never had it cause a problem.
Since the bulb doesn't put out that much lumens it shouldn't hurt it and the worst case scenario would be that the bulb burns out and you replace it, or at least I think that would be the worst case scenario. On my Pavilion the f5 button turns the backlight on and off just fine though the power button is a bit too bright. I may paint it with nail polish. That said, when I do turn my backlight on using f5, it is much too bright and I really wish HP would make this adjustable. Why the heck wouldn't they?? I could paint that light but I really don't want to open up my computer, I'm superstitious that way.

How can I turn off the WLS 6.1 security in order to develop my own application-based security module?

Dear Colleagues,
I am currently developing a J2EE application using WLS 6.1.
My team and I have to implement a security requirement to suit our company's needs.
The security requirements are that, users' password need to be aged (30 days maximum) and we need to provided a GUI front-end (JSP) to allow users to change their password when these expire after 30 days.
Our internal contacts in the company, have already taken the lead to find out about whether we will be able to use the WLS 6.1 platform to do this and the answer we got back, was.
Now we need to develop our own security module.
I have 2 questions:
1. How can we turn off the WLS security in order develop our own application-based security module?
2. How can we develop a security module that allows us to age users' password and provide them with facilities to change their passwords when these expire?
At the moment, we are using the default BEA WebLogic login.jsp page and there some configuration in the web.xml for this. I will be grateful if you could advise me on how to turn this default security off so that we can write our own security module.

hi,
1.You can write your own realm in 61 which can plugged for your security
calls.
2. once you write your ownrealm.. you can access it through weblogic
api/ur api..
thanks
