My HP ENVY dv4 windows 8 camera is not working and it cannot be found on the device manager.

I am using a HP Envy dv4 on Windows 8 and trying to use the 'Cyberlink Youcam ' Webcam which is not working. When I went to find it in the device manager, it was not present. I have restarted my computer already.

Hi there  @Eliyana 
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that your Webcam is not working and does not appear within device manager. I am happy to assist.
This document is pretty much a catchall of webcam related issues. There is a section specifically for the device not  appearing in device manager. Check it out, unfortunately if it does not resolve with that then it is likely either a loose connection or fault in the device.

Hopefully that will work for you. If it does require service, then you can try contacting phone 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.

    Having tried all the ways possible to get it working, contact your retailer again and politely tell them they did not yet satisfactorily resolve your trouble.  Their Apple-Authorized Service Provider will be able to repair it.

  • My iphone 4 is not working and I cant reset it from the computer either because it wont connect to it I need help!!!

    My iphone 4 is not working and I cant reset it from the computer either because it wont connect to it I need help!!!
    1. I tried connecting it to itunes for a system reset and it didnt work.
    2. The phone wont even turn on!!!

    If the phone wont turn on it sounds like it needs to be charged.  Plug it into a charger and wait about 15 minutes and try turning it on while still charging. Have you tried holding in your home button with the on/off button held in?  Hold them both together until the apple logo comes up and then release them.  The screen will blink off an on while it is resetting. I still think this is a battery issue. Good luck~

  • HP Pavilion x2 10inch windows crashed (recovery not work and make windows crashed)

    I'm just used this HP Pavilion x2 10 inch tablet only 4 DAYS then came out this problem. Now its windows crashed even i've done the recovery. I can't reinstall windows 8.1 pro on it due to can't boot from usb drive even though i've change the UEFI setting and disable the secure boot. This tablet really waste my time and money. Totally disappointed on this product.

    Hey @XavierZK ,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand you're experiencing issues with your Pavilion x2 notebook. 
    If your tablet does not start and you cannot run a recovery service is needed. The age of the product should be factored into the type of warranty service you are offered.  Please call our technical support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the following link to get the support number for your region: Phone Assist Worldwide.

    Hello ffattah,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities
    I have a couple of articles for you to run through and test out. The first is to address the camera not working, take a look at this one iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting found here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802.
    Camera is not functioning
    If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
    If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
    Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
    Third-party cases can interfere with the autofocus/exposure feature and the flash (iPhone 4 only); try removing the case if you have image-quality issues with photos.
    Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
    Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
    Try to remain steady while focusing:
    Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center. Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
    Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. After recording begins, you cannot readjust focus until you stop recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll. Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
    If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
    For the Wifi being grayed out in your settings take a look at this article named iOS: Wi-Fi settings grayed out or dim found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1559
    And if none of that works try resetting the device with this process from iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting found http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Lastly you may need to backup and restore the device with iTunes:

  • Internal web cam does not work and unknown usb device pops up

          I have had my Pavillion DV6 1230us laptop now for about 7 years now and it was working great untill last year. When the lap top comes out of sleep mode or I restart the computer the " unkown device" balloon pops up. I have tried the following fixes, un-installing all the usb devices and did a reboot, I removed the main battery and held the power button for 2 minutes and re-installed it , I have re-installed the webcam drivers from HP and even removed and installed  the small mother board battery with no sucess. When the " unknown device " balloon pops up I can hear an audio prompt like I am plugging and un-plugging a usb device in one of the ports but I am just watching and hearing the problem happening.

    Hey Scotman,
    The Webcam would not be listed as USB device as it is built into the Notebook. Do you have anything connected USB? What do you see in device manager for your Image devices? Here is a video on Webcam. I am not sure if anything will help you in it or not. If you remove all USB devices in the device manager and remove all USB cords from the computer the balloon should not appear on restart.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

  • What should I do if the camera's not working and mac can't find it?

    The camers's not working. When I open Photo Booth there's a line says "Camera is not turned on". The same thing in other programs deals with camera. What should I do?

    You should be able to select Force Quit from the menu beneath the Apple icon in Finder
    and choose to Quit iPhoto from there, without messing up the Mac OS X in the process.
    OS X - Support
    Not sure if rebuilding the iPhoto library would help this issue. However if you had to
    turn off the computer without the correct method (unplug, etc; instead of menu choice)
    the system may have accrued damages and should be checked, maybe repaired by
    use of the Disk Utility in the system. Or restart the computer in Safe Boot mode, then
    run 'repair disk permissions' while it is running in that reduced mode; then restart after.

    •OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?
    Suggestions on how to use Safe Mode in article, to resolve issues, may be helpful.
    There likely are other means to rectify troublesome applications, including reinstall.
    Be sure to backup your music, image, video, and other work on an external drive
    or suitable device as a precaution against loss should there be a hard drive failure.
