How do i turn off the web cam? I shot camera?

I have a MacBook and the  camera/web cam is on. How do I shut it off?

Hi
The camera should turn off automatically when no software is using it. As it's on all the time, it's possible that you have a login item which is automatically starting up and turning on the camera.  Removing this login item should make the camera turn off until you need it.
To check login items, run System Preferences > Accounts
Select your personal account
Go to the Login Items tab
Deselect every option
Save/exit then log out and log back in again
With any luck, this should fix it

  • How can I turn off the sounds of the firefox? I don't want to turn off my whole computer sounds, but just the sounds which comes from the internet. Is there any master button?

    All the websites doesn't allow you to turn off the sounds, but that is just the thing I need to do. So how can I turn off the web browsers sounds? This is so small thing, that I refuse to believe that this kind of button doesn't exits.

    In Vista you can set the volume and mute setting for each application separately in the volume mixer.
    You can click the Volume icon on the Windows Taskbar near the clock and click the Mixer link at the bottom to open the mixer.<br />
    You can adjust the volume level for each application in that window.<br />
    You will only see the Firefox program in the Mixer if you are on a website that plays sound.

  • How do I turn off the Camera access from the lock screen

    how do I turn off the Camera access from the lock screen ?

    Only by hiding the camera via Restrictions. Settings>General>Restrictions. That hides the camera when unlocked unless you go to Restrictions  and unset that Restriction. That is not way currently from just preventing camera access only from the lock screen

  • 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.

    I assume the Rulers are showing. In that case, to get rid of each line use the Move tool to straddle the line and drag it whence it came. I really didn't need to add this comment but it is the first time in years I have had a chance to use the word "whence".

  • After the firmware upgrade last week, the local WIFI networks pop up when I turn on my phone, I have WIFI turned off, how do I turn off the pop up?

    After the firmware upgrade last week, the local WIFI networks pop up when I turn on my phone, I have WIFI turned off, how do I turn off the pop up?

    What OS X version are you using?
    Can you take a screenshot of the pop-up notification?
    To take a screenshot hold ⌘ Shift 4 to create a selection crosshair. Click and hold while you drag the crosshair over the area you wish to capture and then release the mouse button. You will hear a "camera shutter" sound. This will deposit a screenshot on your Desktop.
    If you can't find it on your Desktop look in your Documents or Downloads folder.
    If you want to attach a screenshot to a response here, click the "camera" icon above the text field:
    This will display a dialog box which enables you to choose the screenshot file (remember it's on your Desktop) and click the Insert Image button.
    ⌘ Shift 4 and then pressing the space bar captures the window the cursor is on.
    ⌘ Shift 3 captures the entire screen.

  • How can I turn off the autocomplete/autofill function in Mail?

    How can I turn off the autocomplete / autofill function in Mail (Mail 7.2)? I know how to remove email addresses from the 'Previous recipient' list, but I simply want to deactivate the autocomplete function for email addresses entirely.
    You used to be able to do this via Mail - Preferences - Composing, but I upgraded to Mavericks today, and the option to deactivate the autocomplete funtion for email addresses is no longer there.
    Does anyone know where to find it?
    Thanks in advance for your feedback,
    Tine

    Somehow Escape button started bringing me an autocomplete list in Keynote which is monstrously inconvenient.
    This is rather surprising.
    What you are describing is a feature called "word completion", provided by the Cocoa text engine, and hence used by apps which rely on it, including iWork, TextEdit, and others. When you are typing, or the insertion point is in a suitable position, pressing ⎋, or ⌥⎋, or F5 brings up the word completion list. Of course, it only works if there are suitable words in the list. For instance, if you type "Schad", intending to write "Schadenfreude", you can press ⎋ as much as you wish and nothing will come up. But type "Zeit" and then ⎋, and you'll get "Zeitgeist" sure enough.
    What is surprising is that you describe it as if you had just came across it, whereas it has been available for years (although I believe that originally it was activated only by ⌥⎋). iWork (including Keynote) is a little different, because, in addition to ⎋, ⌥⎋, and F5, word completion is also activated by ⌘⎋.
    I don't know how to turn off this feature, if indeed it can be turned off.
    Usually Escape would make me exit the text box
    Is there any chance you mis-remember? The Keynote shortcut for exiting text editing and selecting the text box is ⌘↩ (command-return).

  • How do I turn off the Icloud erase when the phone is turned on?

    My husband is a ship captain and He thought he lost his phone, I went through all the procedures of changing his account numbers etc on email
    only thing he has on his phone is facebook and email  . He didn't have the find my phone app on when he lost it so I deactived it on our cell provider
    and from I cloud I set up the find my phone to erase it when its turned on.
    Well yes he found it, so I have set back up with the cell service but how do I turn off the find my phone from erasing it when he turns it back on?
    And what is it going to erase??
    Will he still be able to use it as a phone at least?
    thanks for your help!

    Too bad.  It completely erases the phone so it will be like it was when it came out of the box.  He will need to go through the initial setup screens on the phone again to reactivate it before he can use it, and it will require entering his iCloud password to do so.

    How do I turn off the feature that allows the duplication of App downloads to more than one phone? As in my wife downloads an app and I get a dulpicate download on my phone.

    To disable that feature it will depend on whether or not you sync everything in the cloud using Apple's iCloud, OR if you both use the same desktop/laptop computer with iTunes. Here is a link to the Apple support page in regards to the automatic download feature included with your iPhone and corresponding softwares such as iTunes.

    Follow those instructions and it will all be taken care of.
