Re: post on Logitech C270 webcam not working with Skype

I am a windows 8.1 user and I'm using Skype 7.7 and it has all the updates that it needs as of right now and my Logitech C270 Webcam won't work with my Skype and only shows the loading screen. Can you explain to me why it won't work even if I've reinstalled Skype multiple times and restarted my computer as well? Thank you very much.

It seems that the latest Skype versions don't work with AMD Radeon R7 200 Series graphic card. Try to uninstall the currently installed version and install the 6.14.0.104 version using the download links provided here: http://community.skype.com/t5/Windows-desktop-client/ASUS-USB2-0-Webcam-not-recognized-by-Skype-6-18...

Webcam not detected in Skype on T500 with Windows XP Professional

I cannot use video calling on Skype because, for some reason, it does not detect my integrated camera (see T500 datasheet at http://www.lenovo.com/pdf/us/en/t400_and_t500_datasheet.pdf).
Appreciate any help anyone can provide.
Thanks...

hey chartsell,
curious to know, does it work on any instant messaging program such as Y!Messenger, Windows Live Messenger?
If it does then, you will need to check with the Skype support team.
if it does not, then try uninstalling the webcam driver. let windows install its generic driver and try again

Connectivity Issues regarding Logitech C920 Webcam and Windows 8.1

Recently, I purchased a Logitech C920 webcam. Successfully downloaded Skype (most recent version 77.85) and passed the microphone and speaker test. My current version of Windows is 8.1 (64-bit) The speaker and microphone application for Skype is online and passed. However, the webcam application for Skype does not connect. In addition, the Windows Camera application for Windows 8.1 successfully works. All three capabilities of the Windows camera application works: sound, recording and camera connectivity. I was able to sucessfully to download the latest version of the Logitech Webcam Software for the HD Pro Webcam C920. After rebooting Windows, I was able to load the Logitech C920 icon and corresponding executable to the desktop. However, all webchat applications besides the Windows supplied Camera application have issues with the Webcam connectivity:
Yahoo Messenger
Skype
Paltalk
Logitech
After downloading the Logitech executable, The Windows 8.1 is still unable to detect C920 webcam. With the Logitech Webcam Software, it just doesn't detect it at all. The whole thing is just black or blank. I know the camera is functional though, because it works perfectly fine in the Windows 8.1 Camera app. Any assistance and help regarding this issue will be greatly appreciated.

Hello @lmhjcr , Welcome back to the Forums! I hope you enjoy your experience
I noticed your posts about the error message "the device installation is incomplete" you are seeing when you attempt to install your printer on Windows 8.1. I am going to share some of my suggestions with you.
1. Check that Internet Explorer pop-up blockers are turned off before downloading the installer
Internet Explorer Pop-up Blocker: How do I turn off Pop-up Blocker?
Try to install
2. If you're running McAfee Live Safe or any other firewall, please temporarily disable the "real time scanning".
How to disable realtime scans
Try the install
3. Go to the start screen (you may also press the windows key + R to open the run box) and type %WINDIR% this should show the windows folder.
Click on the folder and scroll until you see files. Look for a filed named "HPWINS*.DAT" (the * is for a number that varies) remove this file and try the installation.
Try the install

Webcam Not Detected [HP TrueVision HD]

I have the HP Pavilion dv7-6b57nr Entertainment Notebook PC. Currently running Windows 7. When I open the program provided for the webcam (YouCam) it says webcam not detected. I have reinstalled this program a few times to attempt to install the driver for the webcam but the issue persists with an error saying "No Webcam Detected" or whatever it is. I have been to the device manager and the webcam is not listed there (which I know would be Imaging Devices or something like that). I have heard that many others with dv7's have been having issues with the webcam as well. I have not had my laptop for very long. Some of the solutions I've heard that work are smacking it which I've tried but doesn't work. I've read up that this issue is merely an issue in workmanship and is problem with wiring. I would like to know how to get this fixed please. I would like to get this fixed as soon as possible

Very strange skype malfunction -webcam not detected

Hello, a greeting to all members of community! I never experienced a problematic like this of skype before, so I terminated all attempts trying to make working and I came to this forum for help. I tried in windows xp sp3 and with windows 7 with and without sp1, always the same problem. The version 7.6 of skype does not work at all. It crashes and updater too. I tried all versions 7, and now I am to 7.5.0.102These versions are executed normally, login, bu not recognize the camera, not one particular camera, but all cameras, which are normally working from my computer.I have 2 cameras: single chip eye110 and a generic one that works with drivers of the windows known as "usb video device". None is detected by skype, but both work in my computer. I made online and offline install of skype, problem persists, diferent versions form 7 to 7.5 the same problem. The installation is strange also, the language list is empy, I have to go to option and select by me the folder where to install, else it cannot go on. All attempts are done after a fresh install of windows. here I am attaching dxdiag log file. The video driver may not be tha latest because I intentionally downgrade the video driver with the same no luck thanks in advance

Your processor has to be fully Pentium 4 compatible (with the SSE2 instruction set) for video to work in any Skype version release after Feb 2012. Technically an Athlon XP processor is only Pentium 3 compatible as it does not have support for SSE2. Since older versions of Skype have been retired there is no version of Skype that will support incoming/outgoing video on that computer. The latest version of Skype (currently 7.6) crashes with computers lacking SSE2. For the time being until the issue is resolved the highest version you can use on that computer is 7.5. https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA12252

Presario CQ 71 - Built in Webcam not detected under Windows 7 Professional - No HP-101 device

I have a Compaq Presario CQ 71 EB400. On this notebook I run both Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bits and Windows 7 Professional 64-bits to compare behaviour of apps and windows features in both environments.
Windows 7 Home on my HD C partition
Windows 7 Professional on my HD F partition.
The CQ 71 has a built in Webcam, that shows up under Windows 7 Home premium Device Manager - Imaging Devices (Cameras and Scanners) as HP-101, linked to the required drivers.
Under Windows 7 Home premium:
- The built-in CQ 71 Webcam is detected and operational - the HP-101 entry is present in Device Manager.
- Applications using a Webcam like Skype, Mycam, Manycom etc connect with the Webcam
- When I plug in an external Webcam, thet webcam is detected as well, drivers loaded etc.
Under Windows 7 Professional:
- The built in Webcam is not detected, in the Device Manager -Imaging Devices, the HP-101 Webcam entry is absent
- Skype, Mycam, Manycam cannot find a Webcam (also not when an external USB Webcam is plugged in)
- A plugged in external Web cam is not detected as an imaging device.
I use a Brother printer/scanner/fax machine, the Brother scanner device is visible as Imaging device in Device manager in both Windows 7 Home premium and Windows 7 Professional.
Other USB devices, portable disks, card readers etc seem to work OK in both Windows 7 environments.
The HP support pages provide information what to do when a internal Webcam is not detected; The recommended actions make no difference. Going back to a previous W7 Prof restore point is no option, as on the CQ 71 notebook the built-in Webcam never functioned under W7 Professional.
The major difference is that all Windows 7 Home Premium relatede system software resides on the C partition, all Windows 7 Professional system software on the F partition.
I'm looking for a way to kickstart the built in CQ 71 Webcam under Windows 7 Professional installed on a non-standard partition.
Your suggestions will be very welcome.
Jan Dijckmeester.

Hi again jdij,
It is good to hear back from you!
To enable your system to detect the Webcam in Windows 7, I recommend re-installing the original drivers and software that first came with your computer. This can be done by following the steps in this document on Using Recovery Manager to Restore Software and Drivers (Windows 7). To update the newly installed software, please follow this resource on Using HP Support Assistant (Windows 7).
If the webcam is still not detected, I recommend returning your system back to a previous restore point. This can be done by following the steps in this document on Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 7).
Should the problem continue, I suggest performing a backup and recovery of your operating system. This can be done by following the steps in this resource on Backing Up Your Files (Windows 7), as well as Performing an HP system recovery (Windows 7). This should return your system back to factory defaults.
If the issue persists, please call our technical support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region.

Webcam not detected in Mavericks Operating System

Hi Team,
I upgraded my Macboox OS to Mavericks and since than the webcam is not detected in facetime skype or my other office application like Cisco Jabber.
I know "sudo killall VDCAssistant" works, But it works for some days and again webcam stops working.
We have huge engineer base in office who uses Macbook and if the colloboration through video is not working, it may affect the further purchases.
Is Apple willing to provide some permanent solution to this problem.
regards
Ronak Patel

You mention earlier that you have an iMac that works with the apps that give trouble on your rMBP.
If your rMBP originally came with Mavericks installed, the only workaround I can suggest is that you use your iMac to maintain your non-Apple relationships until the problem is resolved.
If your rMBP originally came with Mountain-Lion or earlier installed, and if you need to use your rMBP with the problem software apps, consider retreating to Mountain Lion until the problem is resolved in Mavericks.

Dv7t Quad - Windows 7 64bit - Internal HP Webcam not detected by Device Manager

New system - one re-install of Windows 7 Ultimate, 64 bit. All else is running as expected. (SimplePass is even cooperating.) Webcam is missing from the Device Manager.
I believe the onboard (internal) HP TrueVision HD Webcam worked originally (after purchase). I reinstalled the OS (fighting with SimplePass - story not worth telling). Never checked the webcam. Weeks later... The webcam is not detected and is not listed in the Device Manager. Speccy64 (freeware used to detect and monitor all sorts of system specs) does not see the webcam. Skype does not see the webcam. YouCam software does not detect the webcam. Nada, zip, zero: No webcam.
I've already "chatted" with HP, requested, and reinstalled the webcam driver. No luck, there.
BIOS is up to date (F1.A 7/20/2011). (Everything is up to date - the laptop is new and is constantly updated.)
I'm open to the obvious, that of returning to "factory rebuild", but it's a headache to avoid so soon after just getting this beast where I want it. I do have a recovery disk and assuming it has anything more than just more drivers on it, it may be useful if I could figure out how to use it.
Ideas?
Thanks in Advance!
Kind Regards,
Dragon-Fur

There is no harm in recovering your Notebook to factory state but I highly doubt that would fix your issue.
It could be a faulty webcam module which is not been recognized. I suspect you might have to send the Notebook in for a warranty repair to get it fixed .

Hi:
Do you have the cyberlink youcam software installed?
If yes, then I don't know why the webcam isn't working.
