IdeaPad Y650: Cannot use Camera and Microphone on Windows 7

Hi,
When I bought this laptop, these two works fine in windows vista. But after I reinstall the machine with windows 7, the internal camera and microphone are no longer recognized by the system. I tried to install the drivers from lenovo website, but there is only windows vista / xp driver. I tried windows vista driver for camera and microphone but still not work.
How should I make my camera+microphone work on windows 7?
thanks

My camera and mic work fine. When I installed Win7 I did not do a clean install. I just upgraded from the Vista 64 installation that came preinstalled. I've been pleasantly suprised to find that everything works beautifully. Actually better than it did in Vista. Maybe try restoring your Vista installation (if possible, I haven't tried the onekey restore feature) and then install Win7 as an upgrade.
This is just a suggestion - I have not tested this!

Flash Player security Pop up when using camera and microphone.

Hello Friends
Can any body suggest me how to remove flash player security pop up for camera and microphone through coding.
Thanks in advance.

The security pop-up was first introduced with FP7. If you want to bypass it I can name two ways off the top of my head:
1. Regardless of ActionScript version (2.0/3.0) in the Flash authoring enviroment, in the Publish Settings dialogue box, the Flash tab, near the bottom choose Access Network Only from Local Playback Security.
2. Publish your movie as a projector. Both of these techniques will allow to "play" your swf file locally.

Can we capture the video and audio using cam and microphone in Edge Animate?

Hi Everyone,
I got a new requirement from the client to create a HTML5 based functionality through which one can capture the video and audio using his web-cam/camcorder and microphone. I have researched on internet and found that there is api available (not reliable) http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/getusermedia/intro/ . I am not a coder by profession and use Edge animate to create HTML 5 based animations and stuff like that. Another problem which i have found that the api only works well with Chrome and Opera and not with Mozilla, IE..
Can anybody help me out in this, please...
Thanks & Warm Regards
Vikas

Hi, Vikas-
After a brief bit of research, you're definitely hitting upon the limitation of the browsers. Not all of the browsers have implemented this part of the HTML5 standard, so you're going to either have to use Flash or be limited to these specific browsers.
Thanks,

How I calculate the flv file size whe I recording from camera and microphone?

Hi all:
I'm recording video from my webcam and my microphone.
I would like to know how I can to determinate via some formula, approximately, the result file size due to camera and microphone configuration.
I show you my actual configuration:
     // setup cam
    cam = Camera.get();
    // setting dimensions and framerate
    cam.setMode(320, 240, 30);
    // set to minimum of 70% quality
    cam.setQuality(0,70);
    // setup mic
    mic = Microphone.get();
    mic.setRate(22);
Only ohert question:
What enconders are using to encoder video and audio by default?
Regards, Roberto.

I'd say 9.4 mb is correct. Email attachments always put on a lot of weight, so 12 mb as an attachment is probably right too.
Why don't you use a free service like Filemail? It's very easy to use, and you dont't have to sign up to use it.

No Audio on built in camera and microphone

please help iMove has no audio every time i try to use the built in camera and microphone to record straight in.... there is NO AUDIO !!

SophiaSlater wrote: ... iMove ... record .... there is NO AUDIO !!
(0) Unless you are trying to use an old external (Firewire) iSight, there is no need to post in the iSight forum. Unlike external iSights, MacBook Pro built-in cameras don't have integrated mics. MBP's mic is a separate device from its inbuilt camera.
(1) Use iTunes, Safari, or QuickTime, etc. to verify audio OUTPUT is working on playback outside iMovie. If not, check your speaker volume and mute settings. If you use external speakers or headphones, check their connection, settings, and power switches.
(2) Record a short audio test using a non-iMovie app like Photo Booth or QuickTime X to see if it works. If iMovie is your only trouble, and if the following suggestions do not resolve your issue, you may need to reset iMovie preferences or even reinstall the iMovie app.
(3) If your audio trouble is ONLY in iMovie check iMovie's VoiceOver audio settings.
     • Verify you are using the correct "Record From:" audio input source.
       (Yours choices may differ from those shown in the image above.)
      • Also verify that your "Input Volume:" is set loud enough.
(4) If your trouble continues, also check your MBP's
      > System Preferences... > Sound > Input settings:
     • Verify you have selected the correct "sound input" device.
       (Yours choices may differ from those shown in the image above.)
     • Also verify that "Input volume:" is set loud enough so the
       "Input level" meter flickers when you speak.

Ranking of optional cameras and microphones

Hi,
Has anyone seen or done a ranking of optional cameras and
microphones for Adobe Connect Pro? It would be great to get an
overview of best and most economic products. Right now I am
testing:
- QuickCam Vision Pro for Mac, from Logitech - And I have not
succeeded yet in getting it to show up in the camera configuration.
- ClearChat Pro USB - And I think there is a humming noise
which I have not heard before using other headsets and also my
Mac's buil-in microphone.
All hints are more than welcome!
Kind regards,
Jonas

Hi Eric and others,
I just tried to setup a meeting using my sony camcorder
instead of the logitech webcam. it seems to me that the camera is
recognized by laptop and adobe connect. But I don't get the
pictures. I'm using the firewire cable.
Questions:
- what could be wrong
- do I need additional software
- can I use USB instead of firewire?
Kind regards Paul

Cameras and microphones in set top boxes

Is Verizon currently deploying set top boxes with built in microphones and cameras for future use? If so does anyone know what model set top boxes are so equipped? If the hardware is not in the current devices when does Verizon plan to roll out the new hardware containing the cameras and microphones?

Current Verizon STBs do not have cameras or microphones. Even if future ones did, it's doubtful they would work. Verizon can't get the basic function of their software right anyway, so I'm not concerned.

I cannot use data and voice at the same time.

I cannot use data and voice at the same time.
I am on Wifi (connected) and at the same time I am on a voice call. when I switch to my RSS feed reader it does not sync it comes out with a message cannot connect to internet, I thought it is a problem with the feed reader application, IE 10 behaves the same I cannot browse when I am on a voice call.
This is a very basic issue, am I missing something? Please help.
My Model is lumia 820 with the latest portico update.
TIA

I am aware that packet data via EDGE and voice cannot happen at the same time, surprisingly when I am on voice call I cannot connect to internet via Wifi too

A mic doesn't work. Adobe Flash Player camera and microphone exceptions are different. Please, help!

Hello!
The trouble began in Google Hangouts on Air. When I'm in conference room I read that my mic doesn't work. I checked settings, chose "default" one time and my microphone name another time. Both variants don't help. On the right end of an address bar I read this message: "this page has been blocked from accessing your camera and microphone". I clicked it, chose "Allow", after reloading the problem returns. Then I went to Chrome exceptions and allowed my mic on the site.
In Chrome exceptions menu I read this: "Adobe Flash Player camera and microphone exceptions are different". Though I chose "Allow" in Chrome I can't do it Fllash Player. I did all the instructions which are given to solve audio problems, but it didn’t help. I also wanted to allow excess for my mic on “Website Privacy Settings Panel”, but I can’t find https://plus.google.com in the list to allow (attach a screenshot). I’m out of ideas what else to do. Please, help!

Cannot use Remote Desktop host on Windows 8.1 Pro, termsrv corrupted?

Hello,
Few days ago I upgraded my home desktop machine from Windows 8.1 to Windows 8.1 Professional so I can use the Remote Desktop feature.
I enabled everything needed, checked "Allow computers to connect to this computer" from the Remote Settings, forwarded the port 3389 in my rounter and allowed it in my firewall etc...
But I still can't connect to this computer from outside my home network or inside it. The error I get trying to connect is this:
(For some reason i still can't post images in this forum...) So I posted a link below to my original thread with the images
I'm trying to connect using a laptop running Windows 7 Home Premium.
After searching around I found out that the service responsible for the RDP is called "TermService", I found it on my services but was unable to start it:
(For some reason i still can't post images in this forum...) So I posted a link below to my original thread with the images
Also, notice the description of the service. So I tried to run a System File Checker on the service's DLL (sfc /scanfile=c:\windows\system32\termsrv.dll) and got this log:

Since it's the first time I use this tool I'm not familiar with this log file, but what I managed to figure out from it is that termsrv.dll is corrupted and windows cannot repair it for some reason.
My question is:
How can I repair this file? Is this even the problem preventing me from connecting to this computer via Remote Desktop?
Here's a link to my original question which contatining the images.
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows8_1-system/cannot-use-remote-desktop-host-on-windows-81-pro/e4776239-4d9e-4934-ae2d-b87cc09f7ade

managed to figure out from it is that termsrv.dll is corrupted and windows cannot repair it for some reason.
So, the next step supposedly is
using DISM.
Coincidentally I reached that page last night from
this one, which I thought gave me a better awareness of how much manual repair might be possible. E.g. maybe the WinSxS isn't quite as fragile as we are being led to believe? (It's making me feel sort of like how I used to feel about the
registry when seeing all the caveats about using RegEdit before I got used to that tool.)
Advanced guidelines for diagnosing and fixing servicing corruption
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee619779(v=WS.10).aspx
Something else that I became aware of yesterday serendipitously is SxStrace.exe. I have never seen it used but it sounds useful. E.g. perhaps easier to interpret for supplemental clues than the ProcMon trace that I usually advocate.
Or perhaps use both and see in ProcMon when the SxStrace is writing. E.g. filter with Operation Is WriteFile.
However, what I would do first is find out what the state of your system is regarding that module. E.g. try this Powershell pipeline to list what you have.

Capture iPhone camera and microphone using QuickTIme in a web based app.

Hi all.
Can I capture video from iPhone's camera and audio from the mic. using QuickTime in a web based app. ? Of course on the iPhone 3G and 3GS. I need this because I want to let users to use the iPhone for a web based video chat. So theoretically my point is to use QuickTime to capture an a/v signal from a Mac camera/mic. or iPhone camera/mic., to encode that a/v signal (QuickTime knows to encode to H.264/AAC right?) and to send the encoded stream to a server. Is this scenario a realistic one? Can it be implemented ? (I don't have any experience in programming with iPhone and Mac...)
Btw. do you know any emulators for iPhone that runs on Windows 7?
Thanks,
Tudor

Cannot Use Camera Raw out of LightRoom 4

Below is a lengthy dialogue that I just had with Tech Support via Chat regarding accessing Camera Raw directly out of LightRoom 4. The end result is that it can't be done. LightRoom 4 has it's own "Develop" section and if you try to "Edit in: PhotoShop 6" the RAW image will bypass Camera Raw and open directly into PhotoShop. Something that I was surprised at and frustrated by. I thought for sure I was missing somehting.
I do not recommend buying LightRoom other than a means of "organizing" our images. I simply use Bridgne and am able to open a Canon "CR2" Raw file directly into Camera Raw and then after making my adjustments directly into PhotoShop. LightRoom lacks Layers, Paths and Channels and a host of other wonderful adjustment / manipulation capabilites not found in LightRoom.
So, if you are like me and want to use Camera Raw prior to going to PhotoShop then LightRoom will not get you there. I spent a tremendous amount of time researching it thinking I must be missing something and then I contacted Support via Chat and we went through changing %AppData%, which only resulted in me losing all my PhotoShop Preferences! A total waste of the Technician's time and mine.
I share the below chat with you only to show you the ludicrous amount of time wasted when the answer remains the same: YOU CANNOT ACCESS CAMERA RAW DIRECTLY OUT OF LIGHTROOM 4
Thank you for choosing Adobe. A representative will be with you shortly. Your estimated wait time is 0 minute(s) and 3 second(s) or longer as there are 1 customer(s) in line ahead of you.
You are now chatting with 'Soumyadeep'
Soumyadeep: Hello. Welcome to Adobe Technical Support.
Soumyadeep: Hi Fred!
Fred: Hi there my friend. I am trying to use Lightroom 4, but frankly am not happy with the way it handles RAW files.
Fred: I cannot open a Canon ".cr2" RAW file directly into Camera Raw from LightRoom.
Soumyadeep: I have received your query. Please allow me a moment to verify your account and to review the details of your request.
Fred: Thanks. I have also gone through all of the information I can find in the "Help Menu" looking up everything. Can't find a thing on LightRoom 4. I did not have this problem with Lightroom 3.
Fred: The RAW file that it references is "DNG".
Soumyadeep: I understand that you are unable to preview cr2 raw images in Lightroom 4, am I correct?
Fred: No, I can preview it, but when i want to open it the only choice I am given is CS6. I cannot open it into Camera Raw and it actually choses a completely different and inappropriate plug in from NIK Software.
Soumyadeep: Thank you for confirming.
Fred: I know I can change that in the "Prefernces" in Lightroom 4 but I can't find Camera Raw to select as the choice.
Soumyadeep: I will be glad to assist you with this.
Soumyadeep: May I have the serial number of the product please?
Fred: I just checked again and it is set to a NIK Software plugin as an external software to open the file.
Fred: Yes, let me get it for you.

Fred: OK, how can I easily get the bloody serial number for you?
Soumyadeep: Fred, I have locate the serial number in your Adobe account.
Soumyadeep: Once you login to the Adobe account, click on "My products" under the "My products and services".
Soumyadeep: There you can locate the serial number which you have registered.
Fred: OK, so you don't need it now. It isn't in a format that I can copy and paste.
Fred: 116040070815784336099081
Soumyadeep: Since it was registered in your Adobe account we can get the information from there.
Soumyadeep: Thank you for the serial number.
Soumyadeep: Fred, I would like to inform you that all the raw edit options you will get in Lightroom develop module.
Fred: I hope I copied it correctly it is presented so small.
Fred: OK, just a second.
Fred: So, I go to "Develop" it will open in Camera Raw 7.01?
Fred: Frankly, this is the reason that I have just been using Bridge is because of the seemingly lack of coherent connection between LightRoom 4 and PhotoShop CS6.
Soumyadeep: I would like to inform you that you will not have any separate camera raw plugins for Lightroom. Since Lightroom will not require a camera raw converter.
Fred: At least I can open into Camera Raw and make the necessary adjustments and it will load in to PhotoShop.
Fred: OK, then why when opening a "RAW" image out of LightRoom does it go directly to CS6 bypassing Camera Raw?
Fred: Not allowing all of the wonderful adjustment toos, particularly the new ones in Camera Raw. I just don't understand the disconnect.
Soumyadeep: Fred, may I know which product you are referring as "CS6"?
Fred: If I had wanted to process all my images in LightRoom I would not have wasted my money on CS6. Does that make sense?
Fred: PhotoShop CS6
Fred: Or PhotoShop 6 Extended
Soumyadeep: Thank you for the information.
Fred: The question still remains "Why does LightRoom 4 only recongize DNG files and not other RAW file formats and not allow them to be opened into Camera Raw?"
Fred: I don't want to process my images in LightRoom 4. I want to catalog and sort them. I want to process the RAW files from Canon in Camera Raw and then move on to PhotoShop 6 Extended.
Fred: So, what you are telling me is that I can't open a RAW file in LightRoom into Camera Raw. Simply stated.
Soumyadeep: Fred, I can understand your concern. Lightroom will not require a camera raw converter.
Soumyadeep: May I have the name of the camera model you are referring?
Fred: Two camera models: EOS 5D Mark II and EOS 60D
Soumyadeep: Please so that I can check further and try to troubleshoot your issue.
Soumyadeep: .Thank you for the information.
Fred: Both are listed as supported by Adobe PhotoShop and Camera Raw. I found that in my research.
Soumyadeep: Okay.
Soumyadeep: Please close all the Adobe applications.
Fred: I simply want to go from LightRoom 4 directly to Camera Raw 7.01 and then onto PhotoShop 6 Extended. Seems pretty straight forward and logical to me. Then again I'm not Adobe.
Fred: OK, just a moment and I'll do that.
Soumyadeep: Click on Start.
Soumyadeep: Fred, may I know what operating system you are using?
Fred: I am working on Windows 7 64 bit operating system.
Fred: I have closed all applications from Adobe.
Soumyadeep: Thank you for the information.
Soumyadeep: Click on Start.
Soumyadeep: Just type %Appdata% in the search box and hit the enter key.
Fred: Ok, Im pretty computer savy so just tell me where you want to go.
Soumyadeep: Double click on Adobe folder.
Fred: Done
Soumyadeep: In that folder you will have a folder CameraRaw. Please rename the folder as CameraRawold.
Fred: Done
Soumyadeep: In that folder you will have a folder Adobe Photoshop CS6. Please rename the folder as Adobe Photoshop CS6old
Soumyadeep: After renaming the images please close the page and try to open a raw file and let me know the exact result.
Fred: Done
Fred: Just a moment. I have renamed CameraRawold and Adobe6Old. i am going to navigate to my external drive and click on a RAW File
Soumyadeep: Okay.
Soumyadeep: Let me know the status.
Fred: It is opening PhotoShop 6 Extended.
Fred: I can change the properties of the file to open in another program if that is where we are going.
Fred: It also created an error that stated that it recognized graphic software that is not completely supported and PhotoShop is not opening normally.
Fred: Given a little more time it opened in Camera Raw.
Soumyadeep: Fred, once more step you need to perform as you got an error regarding graphic software.
Soumyadeep: Please try to work on the Camera Raw and let me know it is working fine or not.
Fred: And I lost my presets.
Fred: OK, where does this leave us?
Fred: With regards to LightRoom 4?
Soumyadeep: Fred, you wanted to open the raw images in Camera raw option instead of Photoshop CS6, right?
Fred: Camera Raw appears to be functiong fine.
Soumyadeep: Great!
Soumyadeep: Please close all the Adobe application.
Soumyadeep: Re launch Photoshop and type CNTRL+ K.
Soumyadeep: Let me know once you are done.
Fred: Checking the "CR2" files out of Canon the dafault to open is with PhotoShop 6
Fred: Ok, let me close all of them.
Fred: OK, closed sir.
Soumyadeep: Please navigate to Performance tab.
Fred: "Performance Tab" in what program?
Soumyadeep: Re launch Photoshop and type CNTRL+ K
Soumyadeep: A new window will pop up "Preference"
Fred: Just a second it is opening. Thanks for help.
Fred: I am now at the Prefernces box. Performance Tab
Soumyadeep: You are welcome.
Soumyadeep: Correct.
Fred: OK, I'm in Preferences
Soumyadeep: Please let me know Use Graphics Processor is checked or unchecked.
Fred: It is checked. I do know that on this machine that the graphics processor is not fully supported due to a lack of a separte video card.
Soumyadeep: Okay. Please do check once that the graphic drives are updated or not.
Soumyadeep: Fred, I hope now your are able to open the raw images in camera raw as you were referring?
Fred: Just a second. Driver software is up to date.
Fred: Let me open LightRoom 4 and see where it goes. Just a second.
Soumyadeep: Sure.
Fred: Lightroom is taking a long time to open now.
Fred: Now I'm getting the message that it is not responding.
Fred: OK, it finally opened. Just a second.
Soumyadeep: Okay.
Soumyadeep: Please let me know the result.
Fred: In light room when I select "Edit In PhotoShop 6" it is going directly to Photoshop 6 and not opening Camera Raw. Still.
Fred: So, my friend. We are still back to the original question and now I have to reload all of my preferences lost due to the change in AppData. LOL!
Fred: I guess I can organize all I ant in LightRoom and still use Bridge to edit and work on my images.
Fred: Sorry! Organize all I want and still edit out of Bridge.
Soumyadeep: Fred, I am sorry to inform you that when you will open the images from Lightroom it will not require the camera raw and also when you will try to open the images in other software from Lightroom it will directly open in that software. Since Lightroom itself works as a Came

Jim, thank you for an excellent responce. I truthfully had researched the "Help" section on LightRoom and PhotoShop and found nothing that even remotely resembled your straight forward and easy to follow directions. After upgrading to CS6 and LightRoom 4 I am delighted with all of the new features that Adobe created in PhotoShop. I'm not sure that LightRoom 4 was as great an advancement as PhotoShop itself.
I am certainly going to give your solution a try and see how it works out for me. I concur that I probably do not fully understand and appreciate the relationship between the two programs. Today was my attempt of gaining a better insight to that relationship. Thank you for your response!

Cannot use Keyboard and touchpad at the same time? Twist

Hi,
I have the lenovo twist with the i7 processor and a 500GB hard drive (8GB ram). I have noticed that when using the keyboard, you cannot use the touchpad. Although you can use the trackpoint? I know this is a minor issue but can it be updated to fix?

Hi, Kyleosipad
You should be able to do this; it just requires the changing of a setting. If you navigate to Control Panel ► Mouse ► UltraNav ►Settings ► Smart Check Notices ► PalmCheck, you can adjust the PalmCheck sensitivity. PalmCheck is a feature that helps reduce misclicks and touches of the TrackPad. If you uncheck the box that says Prioritize for keyboard and touch input, and click Apply, then you should be able to type and use the TrackPad simultaneously.
Best,
Adam
Yes, that's true - you can disable the "Prioritize for keyboard and touch input," but then you lose Palm Check ENTIRELY even though it's still "set" to its default position. Mine is set one setting from the red setting, so the Palm Check should be active and working as normal. However, when I start typing it goes nuts and my mouse pointer jumps all over the place. The only way I can get it to behave is to again enable "Prioritize for keyboard and touch input."
Can you confirm this?

E6-00 and Belle update : Cannot use Wifi and LEAP ...

Upgraded the E6-00 yesterday. First issues arise and even after a full reset, it still does not work.
- Wifi connection using LEAP authentication
Network is found, popup to enter username and password, all is good. Except the phone keep trying to connect while I type the password and each time, it re-ask the username. In short I cannot use connect at all as I don't have time to enter both username and password before it loop.... No more wifi connection possible as it use this LEAP authentication. Any way to increase the connection retry timeout ?
- IMAP folder not found
Same config as under Anna, but under Belle, it does not find any folder for IMAP account (and yes, the mail root folder is right), refreshing the folder list, just do nothing.
- MAPS
Say that it's empty and need maps. Give few options:
   * use OVI on the PC : OVI doesn't find MAP on the phone
   * use wifi to download map : .... if wifi would work, why not
Anybody else got the same issue ? Or found solution ?

Ok try to delete your apn, reset the device and resintall the OS. Don't restore any backup ans configure the WLAN apn: settings> connectivity> settings>destinations. Into the WLAN settings go to WI-fi security settings> in the fifrst field select EAP> in the second field EAP plugin settings > select EAP-LEAP.
This way the apn will work again
- IMAP folder not found
Same config as under Anna, but under Belle, it does not find any folder for IMAP account (and yes, the mail root folder is right), refreshing the folder list, just do nothing.
Please delete your mailboxes and configure them as you want. To create a IMAP access mailbox , for example Nokia Mail (outside of Messaging server) select Other. Put you credentials and choose Standard. You will see into Settings> your mailbox > sync content > Folder subscriptions> choose which folder to sync and it's done
- MAPS
Say that it's empty and need maps. Give few options:
   * use OVI on the PC : OVI doesn't find MAP on the phone

Anybody else got the same issue ? Or found solution ?
Please delete on mass memory the folder Cities and the file Qf, then open Maps and close the application. Verify that the folder Cities and the file Qf are again in E. Connect your device to Nokia Suite and redownload the cartography.
