HP Pavilon dv6 Notebook PC web cam will not turn on

I downloaded the driver from HP website but the error message says to turn on web cam .
How do you turn on the Web cam?????

Remove battery and AC power and hold down the power button 20-30 seconds. Now plug in the AC and not the battery and see if it turns on. This is called a "hard reset". It is a longshot but worth a try.

  • HT1430 Light next to camera will not turn off

    I have an iphone4 & all of a sudden this past week the light next to the camera has come on & will not turn even when the phone is turned off. Anybody ever experience this problem or hear of it??

    Try a reset:
    1. Hold the Sleep and Home button down (together)
    2. For about 10 seconds
    3. Until you see the Apple logo (very important)
    4. Ignore the red slider

  • Web Cam will not work

    I recovered and reinstalled all software but the Webcam will not operate. 
    There is not Camera listed in the Imaging devices
    but under sound, video and gaming there is the Cyberlink webcam virtual driver listed.
    I did a hard reset by removing the battery and holding down the power button and had it check for new hardware but nothing was found.
    The Cyberlink YouCam SW states that no webcam detected.

    This sounds like the webcam is dead or now working anymore...install skype and test that will tell you if it detect the webcam or not.

  • HP Tablet web os will not power on.

    My HP Tablet web os will not turn on.  It worked completely fine yesterday and after charging all night will not power on? Is there any Tech Support for this.  It has not gotten wet or dropped. It just will not power on.  It will not do anything now. 
    Thank You,
    Peggy

    Hi Peggy, have you tried to reboot it?  Press and hold both the power button and the center button together for 15 -20 seconds until you see the HP logo, then release.

  • I have a Canon EOS Rebel T3 1100D which will not turn on.

    I have a Canon EOS Rebel T3 1100D which will not turn on. Battery charger shows green light , but when installed camera will not turn on. Place battery back into charger and it shows yellow light and takes awhile to charge and show green light. I thought must need new battery but it does same thing. This camera has been trouble free from start, it is a few years old but didn't think i would have internal issuses already. Am i missing something? Ordered ac adapter to plug in direct and see if it works then. Any ideas would be helpful Thank you.

    Hi GP!
    Welcome to the Canon Forum.
    If the camera still does not power on after using a new battery or after you try an AC adapter, the camera will need repair.  To start the repair process, you'll need to complete a Repair Request on our website. 
    Alternatively, you may participate in the Canon Loyalty Program.  This option allows you to replace your current camera for a discounted fee.  The original non-functioning camera would then be returned to Canon USA for recycling using a prepaid shipping label that would be provided.  If you would like to take part in this option, please call our Sales Department at (800) OK CANON (800-652-2666) seven days a week, 8am to Midnight.  Let them know you have been working with online technical support and the Canon Loyalty Program was offered.  Be sure to have your serial number for your camera at the time of your call.

  • Eplh 300 HS will not turn on

    I purchased an Elph 300 HS for my mother Christmas before last.  She has used it minimally (probably around 500-1000 actuations).  The camera will not turn on at this point.  I have re-charged the battery using the Canon outlet charger, but the camera still will not turn on.
    Any suggestions?  I'm a long-term Canon user and a CPS member (for my pro work), but have no experience with the Elph line.
    Thanks!
    Solved!

    jhphoto21,
    At this point, the camera will need to be examined by our Factory Service Center technicians.  To start this process, you'll need to complete a Repair Request on our website.

  • Hp TrueVision HD web cam does not work. The light will come on but no image appears in the window.

    Hi.
     I have an HP Pavilion dv7 6178us Entertainment PC I just bought it last week. My operating system is Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1 64 bits.
    The problem I have is that yesterday I install Skype in the computer and realized that the HP TrueVision HD web cam does not work. The light right next to the web cam will light up but no image will appear on the screen.
    I have checked the software that  I have in the computer for the webcam and the program is CyberLink YouCam BE version 3.5.
    But the web cam does not work. The light right next to it will turn on when I activate Cyberlink, Skype or Messenger but no actual image will come out in computer screen. The computer is fully updated BIOS, Windows 7 and HP.
    But the web cam is not working. Could you help me fix this problem?
    Best regards:
    JEIO71

    I have a pavilion dv6 notepad. it's about a year old.
    about a month ago internal webcam truevision hd stop working.
    Called hp tech. they sent a box for me to ship the laptop.
    they hp tech attempted to correct the problem via internet
    did not work.
    wanted me to do a restore to factory setting i stopped him there.
    Webcam detected in device manager.
    the webcam light come on but no image.
    I actually see the back drop through the image space.
    running windows 7, fully updated.
    I found many comments on the web about the webcam connector disconnecting.
    But if it was the case with my computer, the webcam would not be detected.
    Many other comments suggests to do a restore to factory setting but \i read also that
    does not work often.
    I read many comments where disappointed clients believe hp should update
    the software but the driver is actually microsoft dating back to june 2006.
    Is it possible it's  a hardware problem, ie webcam is burned out.
    I have received a box to sent it and know they will do a system restore.
    Don't feel to go that way.
    Many comments refers to hp making an effort to get a driver update.
    ps I decided to purchase a logitech webcam, works perfectly.
    What else can I do to fix this problem.
    Can hp send me another internal webcam.

    Hello Manishshakya,
    I see that you are having problems with the webcam on your computer. The unit you have is a HP commercial unit.
    I would suggest posting your problem in the HP Commercial Forum as well. There are more users with the computer you have on this board and it is specific to your computer.

    I have done absalutely nothing to my 4g apple ipod touch, and it over heats, won't hold a charge, and the front camera will not work. I bought this brand new in december, and i've barely used it. I've tried restarting it and everything, I honestly think this is out raging because i spend over $200 on this. To have for music and instagram. I use it about an hour a day, but i've only been using it for about 3 months although i've had it since December. Any suggestions that may help me?

    Try:
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
