Ip Camera won't work wireless

I set up a wireless Foscam camera by using the ethernet cord to the Time Capsule. Everything was working fine. I could see if in an icam
application and could see it off the website. I unplugged it and the camera took about a minute to connect to the Time Capsule/airport wifi. However when I moved it twenty feet away, the camera would not hookup. On the website I got a "socket error" alert. After that, the camera would not work off wifi. I do plug it back on the cord to the router, and it works fine.
Has anyone had any such problem? And what is a socket error?

I take it that you ahve the IP set to static, or have a MAC address DHCP reservation for the camera, network settings OK.
WHat was the wireless authentication on the old router and what are you using on the new 4200?
Is it possible the camera does not support the encryption used by the 4200, i.e. wpa2-personal?
Have you tried WEP to see if the camera will work then?

Infinity won't work wirelessly with Ubuntu OS

I'm running Ubuntu Netbook Edition and upgraded my BT broadband to Infinity on 28.12.11, using the same HomeHub3 that worked perfectly well with the old Total service.
It doesn't work, wirelessly. I can get an apparently strong connection, but its agonisingly slow. At the same time, an ethernet connection works well, When I switch from one to the other and test the speed, I can watch the bandwidth fall away (i.e.: it isn't immediately disconnected.)
Nobody at BT can or will help, telling me that Ubuntu is 'unsupported' (i.e.: it's my problem). I reported this problem to BT - ref: xxxxxx-xxxxxx - via its complaints form on 28.12.11, but have had no response.
I've spent much time this past week on internet help forums. It transpies that BT has known about this issue with Ununtu for six months, but has apparently done nothing about it and cannot suggest a solution.
Suggested workarounds from other Ubuntu users involve manually reconfiguring one's connection, but my netbook won't allow me to apply the changed settings, or to change the router settings from N to G tech., but that only worked temporarily for me and, besides, my netbook is only a couple of year old.
When I was sold Infinity, nobody mentioned that it doesn't work with Ubuntu. Frankly, I feel it was mis-sold as I intended to increase the bandwidth of my Total account and was persuaded to take Infinity on the grounds that it's a superior service for the same price. Not from where I sit, it isn't.
The only solution I can see is to get BT to switch me back to their Total service, which suited me fine. I'm going to get their engineer to come back and uninstall Infinity. I will also complain to Offcom, as this situation could easily have been avoided had the BT sales person told me that Infinity won't work wirelessly with Ubuntu.

Firstly your negotiating skills with BT are far better than mine....
"....Total account and was persuaded to take Infinity on the grounds that it's a superior service for the same price"
I was on BT Total BB and had to pay an extra £2 pm for Infinity and then an extra £4.75pm uplift of the calls package to give me the same anytime calls I had previously.... And had to re-start another 18month contract!!! Ohhh well.
Right onto the problem... Webby's suggestion of making sure your on a clear or least used wireless channel is good advice.
Here is the link to the free software http://www.metageek.net/products/inssider/
Have a look at a demo,- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pf2kZCfYTxI
To be honest I would move your HH3 from the Automatic setting to a fixed wireless channel as they seem to work better like that.
If your Operating System won't work with Inssider I would then just try a different channel starting at 1 and work up... seeing how things go.
Regarding setting your HH3 to wireless g, that is a very backward step as the most you'll get over that would be around 20Mbps depending on your distance from hub etc.
Couple of pics comparing my speed test over wireless g and n in THIS POST.
Another thing I would try is a wireless n USB adapter... just in case your m/c is only g
Links of how to identify what yours is and pictures of the difference in the "Network Sharing Centre".. 54Mbps being g and anything above is wireless n....
Wireless n gives the best speed assuming your Infinity download IP is more than 20Mbps. Also wireless n signal is more robust penetrating walls etc.
There are links to the type of wireless n adapters I use... Picture of one HERE, (Don't need the extender cable shown in that picture).
wwwebber's post was very useful.-
"I use Ubuntu on my laptop with BT Infinity & HH3 with no problems at all. BT is not at fault here - they do not support Ubuntu."
Confirming Infinity and Unbunto do work...
You say ".....but my netbook won't allow me to apply the changed settings, or to change the router settings .... but that only worked temporarily for me......"
As changing settings worked temporarily you must have been able to log into your HH3.
If you really can't log in can you borrow a friends netbook running windows to get logged in perhaps?
Log in,- http://bthomehub.home/html/home/home.html go to Advanced settings, wireless. and change Channel settings from Automatic to a channel number then click on Apply.
I would place your laptop near to the HH3 and move the HH3 wireless channel to a clear channel or start at channel 1.
Try to get a good wireless n speed..... example of mine 37Mbps over http://www.speedtest.net/
Then when you have a reasonable speed move your laptop away... you will notice a drop over distance that's normal.
I am 20' away from my HH3 and get 37Mbps through a plasterboard wall.
Regarding other routers people have used http://community.bt.com/t5/BT-Infinity/List-of-Routers-to-replace-Home-Hub-3/td-p/298203
And see Ady's msg #21 and #25 in THIS THREAD.
"'ll try the netbook in different locations over the w/e and hope from a solution from Ubuntu before remonstrating further with BT".
Please let us know how you get on.

My camera won't work on my Iphone 5

My camera won't work! It comes up with a black sceen/ closed shutter! I've forced closed it, restarted my phone but nothing is working! I use my camera daily so this is a huge issue!
Could someone please help me solve this problem!?
Thanks

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

After last update, flash won't run, camera won't work, slow slow slow!

After the recent update, my camera won't work, can't do facetime or video in ichat. Also shockwave and silverlight plug ins won't work so can't watch youtube or netflix. On reboot my laptop is EXTREMELY Slow!
help?

Torch won't turn off and back camera won't work after dropping it in a pool. What can I do?

I put it in rice as soon as I got back, and left it for 36 hours as instructed by a website and friends. Ever since dropping it the torch hasn't turned off and the bac camera won't work.

Water and electronics do not mix well. Your device may not ever work properly again, and probably needs to be replaced. Unless you have the AppleCare Protection Plan Plus, then it will cost $199 USD to replace an iPhone 4S.
The rice trick works best if you leave it for at least 4-5 days, not 1.5 days. But even that is no guarantee.

Casio Camera won't work with SL

My Casio EXZ850 camera doesn’t work with Snow Leopard.
Used it with Windows XP & then with Leopard just fine. When connect to USB ports not recognized by Mac. I checked System Profiler.app & under USB it is not listed. Casio Support is no help. They say it won’t work with anything above OS X 10.4 which is incorrect as I used it with 10.5 for over 1 year with no problems.

I take it that you ahve the IP set to static, or have a MAC address DHCP reservation for the camera, network settings OK.
WHat was the wireless authentication on the old router and what are you using on the new 4200?
Is it possible the camera does not support the encryption used by the 4200, i.e. wpa2-personal?

My camera won't work with IMAQ vision builder

I have a Hitachi camera , and a PCI 1407 frame grabber
the camera works well in MAX under devices , but when I open the IMAQ vision builder , it not visible in the devices , and I can't open MAX from the vision builder. It's gets me that error "1074397163" at the end it has bad interface
it's not the power supply of the camera since it works well at MAX , so its like the camera's name is img0 in MAX , and another thing in IMAQ vision builder, I tried updating my softwares but nothing happened, can anyone help please ??
thanks

Dalia,
I think I may need some clarification on what exact program and function you are using. Are you getting this error with the Vision Builder for Automated Inspection (VBAI)? Or are you using LabVIEW and are receiving this error from the IMAQ Init.vi?
If it is in VBAI, and you are trying to acquire an image, the Devices should auto-populate in the Main tab of the Acquire Image setup. Simply select the camera and press Grab or Snap.
If it is in LabVIEW, right-click on the interface input of the IMAQ Init.vi to create either a constant or a control. If it does not auto-populate with the correct camera name as it is in MAX, "img0". Or you can change the interface name in MAX by simply right-clicking on the camera and selecting "Rename"
Can you elaborate on what you are referring to when you say "the MAX explorer won't work in IMAQ"?

IPad2 camera won't work and it takes 5 1/2 hrs to charge battery

My ipad2 is about 2 and a half months old and everything was working fine until a few days ago.
First my iPad froze in the middle of one app and I couldn't restart the device. I tried to press the home button but it didn't work. I then tried to restart the iPad by holding down the sleep button but nothing happened either... So I left the iPad alone for about 5 mins and the apple logo appeared out of nowhere and took me to the lock screen (where u have to slide the bar to load the home screen). After that everything went back to normal.
Second, my camera stopped working. Every time I press on the camera, it goes to the shutter screen and stays there. I restarted my iPad but the camera app still won't work. FaceTime and photo booth works fine though.
Third, now my iPad takes over 5 and 1/2 hrs to charge from 0% to 100%. When I first got my iPad, it only took it 4 and 1/2 hrs to charge from 1% to 100%. I have heard that over time, it should take less hrs to charge the iPad (not more).
Any suggestions on how to fix this?
Thanks u

Try a reset, which is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release. A reset does not affect any data or settings.
The time it takes to charge the battery will not improve over time.

Touchscreen camera won't work.

Our touchscreen camera isn't working after the touchscreen was updated. It keeps buffering but no picture shows up. What do I do now.

Your camera works though your xfinity home security wifi. Take a glance at the camera and see if it has 2 green lights on it. If not check the power to the camera unplug it and plug it back in. If both camera lights don't come back on try resetting your wireless. DO NOT FACTORY RESET THE ROUTER. Just unplug it and plug it back in. If you don't have a separate router just hit the reset button on the back of your gateway. If this still donestn't work you will need at tech out.

HT2090 I recently upgraded my Macbook Pro (2008) with Snowlepard. The I downloaded Maverick. Ever since I did Maverick, my iSite camera won't work for facetime or skype. What to do?

I purchased my Macbook Pro in 2008. My son recently gave me and iPhone 5 and in order to use it I upgraded my OS to Snowleapord, then I down loaded Maverick. Since I did the Maverick thing my iSite camera does not work on Skype or Facetime. I done a few things like reset SMC and the one other thing to no avail. It works in photobooth and things like that, but it doesn't show up in the utilities list. One point it said something about not being recognized or supported? Is the an upgrade for the camera or do I need to get rid of Maverick? Or what?

   Install the latest software update.
   http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
   Reset SMC.     http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
   Choose the method for:
   "Resetting SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own".
   Uninstall Air Parrot if you have it installed.
   If this does not help, contact Apple.
   Best.
