HP touchsmart webcam has stopped working

The HP Touchsmart Webcam has stopped working. I have uninstalled and re-installed the program, however it is still not working. When you click on the Webcam on the Touchsmart screen it just does not open up.
HP Touchsmart 610-1010a operating on Windows 7.

Hello snazzy:
Welcome to HP's Touchsmart forum. The web-cam only works in HP Touchsmart desk top software that is the one with the carousel. If it does not open in this software setting. Then there is something wrong with the camera internally and for that you need to contact HP Direct Support and get them to replace the camera. You already performed the corrective software issue. So the only thing left is replacing the camera. Sometimes they just burn out ( tiny light ). Please click on Kudos if this resolves your issue. Thank you frrw. I know HP just ships out some parts and we the costumers install them our selves. I do not know if the webcam is one them or not. Most parts are easy to install and replace. You can ask them.

Satellite Pro L500 - Webcam has stopped working

The built-in Web Camera on my Satellite Pro L500 has stopped working with the following message:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Toshiba\Toshiba Web Camera Application\TWebCamera.exe
The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event log or use the command-line sxstrace.exe tool for more detail.
The Event log points to microsoft.vc80.openMP.......
Could someone please tell me how to fix the web Camera. I very rarely use it so I do not know exactly when it stopped working.
Thanks.

Thanks to TwoLags & PauPau.
Yes, I did think @ re-installing the driver but wanted to see what others think about it as I am quite new to Toshiba and was not sure if I could selectively install applications from recovery DVDs.
Removing the old driver and re-installing the one downloaded from TOSH has solved the problem During the re-install, I noticed it re-install MS Visual C++2005 redistributable. THIS IS THE culprit. This litttle bit of software comes bundled with many apps and I guess this was got installed with one of the new apps that I installed recently and must have messed up the original settings.
Thank you all, thw WebCam is back in action.

Hp support assistant has stopped working windows 8

My HP Support Assistant has stopped working. I have read other comments on the forum concerning this problem and attempted to follow their advice. But I am still having the same problem. I uninstalled the HP support in the Control Panel uninstall programs. I restarted my computer then reinstalled the HP support. When installing it asked if I wanted to write over all of the files because HP files were still on my computer. Apparently it did not fully uninstall. I emptied my recycle bin and cleaned out my registry after I tried to uninstall the HP file again. Went back and reinstalled HP support again. This time I did not get the message that it was already installed and do I want to overwrite the files. I thought that the problem was solved but it is not. I cannot get the HP support to work at all. Please can anyone tell me what to do. I am not very savvy with computers and sure use some help.
My computer is an: HP Envy 20 TouchSmart 20d011 - using Windows 8.
I had this problem with another HP computer and called Tech support and they told me to completely restore my computer and then my hard drive crashed. I had to send the computer back an purchased this one. But now dejavu all over. Thank you for any response to my question.

"Windows Explorer Has Stopped Working" Error Message Loop upon Startup of WIndows 7 Ultimate 64-bit

Ok I have a HP Touchsmart 6000 running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit OS. It is my 74 year old mothers computer and about 3 months ago it started acting up. First thing that happened was the internal DVD Burner started working intermitently, recognizing
her QuickBooks backup DVD files occasionally. I got her a new internal DVD burner and it worked for a while. during that time on Startup Help and Support would all of a sudden popup right away. Then recently Adobe Acrobat would
launch a PDF file about Flash and keep opening multiple instances of it. Now her new DVD doesnt work again and on startup at the windows desktop she gets an error "Windows Explorer has Stopped Working". No matter what I click the error
keeps looping. No program has been opened that causes it to crash because the error happens immediately and keeps repeating. I have tried to boot to Safe Mode, Safe Mode with Networking and have tried System Restore to no avail.
I have ran Malwarebytes Antivirus, Malwarebytes AntiExploit, AntiRootkit as well as Combofix. I have run the AntiMalware software from Microsoft and have updated all the drivers for the HP system. To no succcess.
At one point the system did load and an error came up JAN2OSD failed to start due to missing ACPI or something like that. For that brief moment Explorer stopped crashing. When I finished updating driverss though the error came back.
Please Help as she is about to cry and no one wants to make a 74 year old woman cry.:)
Thanks,
Jeff

I get the following message: Mozilla Firefox plugin-container has stopped working properly. What do I do?

the message:" Mozilla Firefox plugin-container has stopped working properly" appears regularly in my maintenance center. I am on Windows 7 and Firefox 3.6.17

I had the same type of failure. It was caused by a FF upgrade from V4 to V9.1. Dearing 1955 did not say what version caused the problem. My USB ports started acting up. I could not install the Webcam that was installed before. The HP Scanner of my OJ 8500 stopped working (USB). Did get it to work via Wireless. Removing FF did not clear the problem. Believe I have infected USB driver now.

Skype has stopped working - message on windows 8.1...

This error message comes out everytime I start the desktop version...
The app from windows store though works , but I do not enjoy using it at all... the desktop client was always far better.
The problem rose when I upgraded my windows 8 to 8.1 , and since then the desktop client is always forced to close with a message that it has stopped working.
I did a few things that I found reading through posts where people were looking for help with their skype issues:
uprgraded my graphics card
disabled my integrated webcamera
uninstalled java
installed older skype versions
tried to rename the roaming skype directory to old_skype
disabled automatic updates
but... once again i'm helpless, and it seems that none of those solutions I found is at least a bit helpful for me...
I'm pretty much desperate ( I apologize if I did write my post into the wrong place)
hope someone can help me
Solved!

Google update setup has stopped working when installing voiceandvideo

when trying to install voiceandvideosetup.exe the following message appears "google update setup has stopped working"
Can anybody help me for i need to get my webcam working asap

If you have adobe reader installed remove it. For some reason it sometimes does not play well while PS CS4 is installing.
Look in Task manager and if you have other adobe products installed make sure they are not running.
Look in msconfig and turn off any items that do not need to be running during computer start up.
Run this CS4 cleaner utility. you will have a choice of level 1 or 2. Type in 3 and run it.
http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs4clean.html
Run the windows installer clean up
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301
Run defrag before and after install.
Turn off windwos defender, any anti-virus running and ensure your connected to the internet before install starts.
When you put the disk in the drive and it wants to run, don't run it. Close out and go to computer and right click on the DVD drive and explore. There is a CS4 folder so open that and find the .exe folder. Right click on that folder and chose run as admin.
The set up will start and will take a few to run its course. During the install the bar will look like it is hanging around 90 percent. This is normal so let it finish. May hang for 5 to 10 mins.
After install is finished remove disk and reboot.
Now the first time you run PS CS4 you need to run as Admin. Right click on the icon in the start area. Choose properties, Compatibility and check run as Admin and close out. Then click on PS to start and then update.

CRASHED: Microsoft has stopped working error!

Dear all,
Recently, I have installed Microsoft Lync 2013 32-bit on my Lenovo K2450 Windows 7 laptop. It has never been run before on this laptop. When I tried opening it, the following message "Microsoft Lync has stopped working" is displayed and closes unexpectedly.
Other Microsoft programs like Excel, Powerpoint 2013 works fine. I have looked up similar topics on this forum and tried the methods below but still encountered the same error.
E.g. - tried disabling/uninstalling Bluetooth driver
- uninstalling Microsoft Lync 2013 and reinstalling it back
- repairing Microsoft Lync 2013 and restarting
Any help will be greatly appreciated! Any suggestions I will be happy to test/try it out. Thank you in advance!
Here's the error message:
Problem Event Name: APPCRASH
Application Name: lync.exe
Application Version: 15.0.4693.1000
Application Timestamp: 54b5cf44
Fault Module Name: KERNELBASE.dll

There are almost always driver related. Try booting in safe mode with networking and see if you can get it to start without crashing. Also try using generic video/audio/webcam drivers one at a time to see if you can identify the culprit.
