  • HT2090 my macbook air camera is not working

    My Macbook Air camera is not working when I try to use photobooth. I have no problem with google hangouts or skype. How can I resolve this problem?

    • Restart your Mac. If the problem continues, use the Disk Utility in your Mac's Finder > Go > Utilities folder to repair permissions.  Then test the camera again.
    • If the your trouble persists,.  reinstall OS X Mavericks.  Repair permissions again immediately following the restart that completes the reinstall and before testing the camera again.
    •  Also check your Mac's  > Software Update... or Apple - Support - Downloads for latest Mavericks updates applicable to your Mac model such as OS X Mavericks 10.9.1 Update.

  • Satellite Pro M30 Win 7 - webcam does not work on msn messenger

    Hi all
    I have a Satellite Pro M30 Modell Nr.: PSM35E and have just changed to Windows 7. But the Nvidia Card NVIDIA GeForceTM FX Go5200 Grafik mit 64 MB RAM does not work properly.
    I could find a driver from Vista and installed it, have Aero pics on the desktop, but my webcam does not work on msn messenger and this is the only way for me to see my family.
    Can someone help me?
    Thanks for your help

    Hi
    Im a little bit confused; do you have some problems with the graphic card or with the webcam?
    I assume you are speaking about external webcam connected to the USB port? Right?
    What happens if you connect the webcam to the notebook? Can Win 7 recognize the connected device? Did you install additional drivers for this webcam?
    In most cases its necessary to do that because I think its not plug & play device.

  • Macbook Air HDMI adapter not working

    I know there are other threads about this but they are a bit outdated. So anyway I bought an hdmi adapter for my macbook air and it was working perfectly for about an hour and a half when suddenly the tv registered "no signal" yet the macbook was still saying it was connected to the tv. I thought it may have been a problem with the tv so I tried on another tv in the house, same result. So then i thought it may be the hdmi so i switched them, same result. So now the only problem could be the adapter or my laptop, does anyone know how I can fix my problem???

    Greetings obomb2000,
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like your MacBook Air is not outputting video to your TVs using an HDMI adapter, and you've done a good job of isolating this behavior to either the adapter or laptop.
    Here are a few additional steps you can try on your MacBook Air before trying another adapter:
    Reset the system
    You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.

    All the best,

  • Web Cam does not work for yahoo messenger

    Hi,
    I down loaded a s/w MacCleanse, it kinda deleted a lot of files from my mac book air after which the web cam stopped working on yahoo messenger. I checked Ichat the cam works perfectly but does'nt with messenger. Does any one have a clue on how to fix this..

    from my experience, attempting to use two programs that allow the use of the camera will render it unusable on the second program attempting to use it. So, if you started iChat first, then forgot to quit the program, and are now trying to use Yahoo Messenger, then you must quit iChat first and it should work.
    Not unless your cam is really broken?

  • New MacBook Air I5 camera not working because of flash?

    I bought a new macbook air I5 13" last night at best buy.  This is not my first macbook.  However, I can't get the built in camera isight / facetime to work with web based sites.  I've logged in and out of different profiles.  Installed/Uninstalled flash several times.  Already reset the macbook.  Done everything that I can find online about fixing this issue and not having any luck.  I've spent most of the day reading and browsing this issue.  Any help would be greatly appreicatied. 

    If your webcam doesn't work with Apple apps either, take MBA back to best buy and ask them whether it can be exchanged or repaired.  Do this ASAP. 
    If your ONLY problem is with flash based web sites, see if any of the suggestions here help you: http://discussions.apple.com/message/17214189#17214189

  • Camera is not working on MacBook Air 6,2 with Bootcamp and Windows 7 Pro 64-bit -- how to fix?

    I have a MacBook Air 6,2 that has been Bootcamp'd with Windows 7 x64 Pro. Everything works find except for the camera, which does not appear to work at all. In the Windows Device Manager it shows the camera as installed with a working driver, but the camera never turns on.
    Any ideas on how to make it work?

    Hi,
    If there is no error after the disk checking, please temporary disable antivirus, update BIOS and device drivers such as hard drive from computer manufacturer’s
    website to check the result.
    If the issue persists, I suggest you boot in Safe Mode, and clear the temp folder. Delete every files that can be deleted.
    C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Temp
    In addition, the following threads would be helpful as well.

  • My macbook air camera does not work

    I have a macbook air 11" mid 2011   running OSX Yosemite 10.10.1  
    I need to use the facetime camera, but it says no camera is available. 
    what I have done (6 hours or research and grief later):
    After reading a plethora of forums,  I have tried:
    Migrated from OSX Mountain Lion to Yosemite..  will definitely fix your problem.   no good... 
    Installed the latest update...  yep... 
    used the disk Utility repair again just in case...   yep...   still no good.
    restarted the computer...  yep.       no good...
    open a terminal and type         sudo killall VDCAssistant
    yep that was a waste of time...  its not even on my laptop.  
    the USB camera is not in the System Information USB Tree. and under camera it says no video capture devices were found.
    Found a really helpful UTube video which suggested I Kill off a Parrot thingy...   wasnt even in the devices list...
    I have read through the plethora of forums on this problem even further... there are literally thousands of them.
    The most popular answer which Apple appears to provide is:    and by the way you keep running into this suggestion...
    One of these will fix your problem:
    (1) If restarting your Mac doesn't fix the problem,                          (NOPE  didnt fix it..)
    (2) use Apple's http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090                      (NOPE  no help...   as:
    did the use Disk Utility to repair permissions thing..   yep...  still no camera...
    the USB camera is still not in the System Information USB Tree.
    (option 3 applies to me...   cant see the camera in the USB...  
    no suggestion on how to resolve that ...  but there is a (4) so I tried that...  
    I reset the SMC ...   guess what...   still no camera...  
    The camera used to work...  
    ...............................................................................      My thought and question of Apple is below  ...................................................
    I am thinking the port on which the camera communicates is disabled in the new software version, or it is reassigned to something that is in conflict with it.  The USB connection is set at the manufacture level to something which is not being detected now.
    CAN APPLE PLEASE ADVISE ME WHICH DEFAULT PORT THE CAMERA IS CONNECTED TO AND CONFIRM THAT IT IS NOT DISABLED BY DEFAULT
    Please dont tell me its a problem with the camera...   I could probably roll back to the old software, and my system would work just fine...   this has been a total pain in the neck...   and has cost me many hours...  
    Yes I am going into the Apple store tomorrow... another two hours out of my life...  probably to be told its a hardware issue and they need to take it away and charge me money to fix it..     but I will take it there and decline to pay any money.   It is out of warranty and probably not essential to the laptop to use.   It s frustrating that there is no easy fix to this problem despite the plethora of forum articles and posts by thousands of people experiencing the same problem.
    There is no way Apple can stick its head in the sand and claim its a hardware issue.  
    I have tried to look for a built-in USB camera driver for Apple Macbook Air...   good luck with that...   If the old system driver was about,  perhaps someone could check the communications ports and work out where this problem actually sits.

    There was a final outcome...       Apple determined that the IO card was faulty and they replaced it under warranty..      The camera is working correctly
    i cant argue with the results...     The card replacement has reliably fixed the problem.   
    SO my final recommendation for a solution is
    check online to make sure you can get an appointment at your APPLE shop.   
    Book the appointment so you don't waste 4 hours...   
    Check that your machine is in warranty.      If not, the repair cost to me was $85 aus...    Still not too bad considering this issue cost me 14 hours of research and a further 8 hours travel time...   
    BAck up your computer and open the password to protect your regular one.  Then...
    take it to Apple at the appointed time.     MAKE SURE YOU BACKED UP YOUR MACHINE...
    WAit 5 to 10 days based on how busy they are...          If they say your card is faulty, it's hardware and no amount of fiddling about with software is going to fix the problem.        I could have saved 18 + hours..    
    Replace  the IO Card Fixed this issue...       It has not failed since getting the computer back.

  • Macbook Air internal keyboard not working with windows 7

    Hello,
    I have a macbook air 1.6ghz (1st gen) . I just installed windows 7 32bit on it and got the latest bootcamp. Everything else works perfect except the keyboard. Anyone have any drivers I could try ? I tried the external ones but I do not have an external keyboard so its not much use. Anyone have the internal driver for it ?
    *i have tried bootcamp 2.0, 3.0, 3.1 and 3.2* The keyboard works perfectly on the mac side. I truly believe this is a driver issue because on the device manage under keyboards it has the driver listed as HID and under HID devices one of the keyboard drivers has a yellow exclamation mark.
    I have also tried extracting the driver from the Apple drivers folder and running it that way.
    Thanks,

    Did you install the Windows support software? Did you check in Windows sytem to see if the drivers are working? Check the Boot Camp help documnets http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/ and visit the Boot Camp forum https://discussions.apple.com/community/windows_software/boot_camp
