My webcam won't stay on in skype - it flickers on and off and says it's not connected

can't use my webcam for skype - it won't stay on. It goes on and off and says it's not connected. If I go to the webcam it is working. how do I resolve this?

You say "If I go to the webcam it is working." Does that mean you don't have this issue in other programs? Also is it a USB webcam or is it attached to the laptop?

  • My iPad mini won't download the 7.0.4 security update...keeps saying I'm not connected to the Internet. How do I fix this?

    My iPad mini won't download the 7.0.4 security update. It just keeps telling me I'm not connected to the Internet. It's doing this to my gf's Ipad 2 as well. How do I fix it?

    "7.0.4"?  The current version of iOS is 7.0.6.  Version 7.0.4 can no longer be downloaded or installed.

  • My ipad 3 won't update to iOS 6.2. I get error message saying I'm not connected to the Internet even though Internet is working for everything else.

    Does anyone know why this is happening or what I can do?

    If the update is not working from the iPad over wireless have you tried to update the ipad via iTunes. Here are the steps for both ways of updating your iPad http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623

    That page's troubleshooting for the "Filter failed" message worked out. I consulted the Wiki before but never found that exact page. I guess I didn't use the best search criteria. Thanks for pointing it out.

  • I downloaded a movie to my Air, but it won't sync to my ipad2 and says it's not authorized.  It's not a rental.  Anyone else have this problem or know how to resolve?

    I downloaded a movie to my Air, but it won't sync to my ipad2 and says it's not authorized.  It's not a rental.  Anyone else have this problem or know how to resolve?

    I ended up having a one hour conversation with Apple Support which evolved to handing over control of my screen and then eventually having to use Terminal.  I wish I could remember the command but it's probably best I don't. 
    One thing we looked at right away was the account name used to dowload the movie.  Is it the same as the account name  you have saved on your iPad.  That's easy to check and would be great if that is all that's needed to correct.  Good luck.
    Here's also an email I got from Support that could solve your problem if it's not as difficult as my issue was.
    I would like to inform you that this issue can occur if iOS (your device's operating system) on your device needs to be updated. It can also happen if the computer you're trying to sync from has not been authorized to play purchases you are trying to sync.
    I suggest that you first see if updating iOS on your iPad resolves the issue. This article will walk you through the process:
    Backing up, updating, and restoring your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    If there are still purchases that won't sync to your device after you update its software, I suggest reauthorizing your computer. To do so, follow these steps:
    1) Open iTunes.
    2) From the Store pull-down menu at the top, choose Deauthorize Computer.
    3) Enter your account name and password, then click Deauthorize.
    4) Now from the Store pull-down menu at the top, choose Authorize Computer.
    5) Enter your account name and password, then click Authorize.
    Once your computer has been authorized, try syncing your device again. If the same issue happens, I suggest reviewing the following articles:

  • Screen on my macbook 13" won't stay on. It just flashes once and goes off.

    I've tried everything but nothing seems to work. I have a new Display inverter but the problem is not solved. What happens is that when i turn it on the display flashes once and then it goes black. When i hit the display's intensity bottoms it just flashes but won't stay on. Any suggestions? please! i can't find any apple technician around here as this is a very (very) small town. Help!

  • My ipod won't sync any of the music i downloaded and says that iTunes can't backup the Ipod because a session couldn't be started with the Ipod how do i fix this

    My ipod won't sync any thing in my iTunes library it always stop as soon as it starts backingup the Ipod a message appears that says iTunes cannot backup the Ipod "my Ipod" because a session couldn't be started withthe Ipod how do i fix this problem?
    This is exactly what the message says: iTunes could not back up the iPod "austins ipod" because a session could not be started with the iPod.

    Try connecting your ipod to another computer and sync only 1 file or song just for isolation purpose only to see if it'll sync.
    If still not syncing, then porbably you may have a bad iOS installed in iPod which is hard to see if it has a problem because you said nothing's wrong with iPod. I just saying is, it MIGHT have a bad iOS.
    If you are unable to do a restore, put your ipod in DFU mode, then connect to iTunes and iTunes will detect your ipod in restore mode. Press shift key (PC keyboard) then click the restore button on iTunes. I hope you have your copy of IPSW file for restoration purposes.

  • IPhone 4 won't stay on 3G.  Goes to E and stays there.

    I had an iPhone 3G. Not the 3GS, just the 3G. I really liked that phone and couldn't wait for the "upgrade" to see what it could do. I got the 4 and sold my 3G. So did my wife.
    Well, my wife has no problems with hers, but I'm having issues with connectivity, reception, and lack of 3G coverage. My phone starts on 3G, but within a day or so, it switches over to E... and stays there. The internet and all of my apps seem to move VERY slowly. Pages actually load, and load, and load... finally coming up. If I turn the phone completely off and then back on again, it goes to 3G coverage and I'm moving along at a good speed, although I can't really say it's any faster than my old 3G. But then within a day or so, I'm back on E and back to sluggish.
    I've dropped more calls since getting this phone than I did the entire time I owned my 3G. Made sure I had the latest software (I did), and have been trying to figure it out.
    Any suggestions? Anyone else having this problem? I don't think it sounds like the reception problems others were talking about, as this one does it whether I'm holding it or laying it on a counter, or whether it's in the case or not. It always goes to E and gets sluggish.
    Wishing I had my 3G back...
    All the best,
    Glenn

    Take it to Apple. They will diagnose it, check your settings, etc. -- and replace it if defective. We have four in our family and no such problems, and no problems at all.

  • Can't open visualizer in itunes window. It goes to full screen and "show visualizer in full screen" won't stay unchecked. I'm running SL and everything is up to date.

    I would really like to be able to view the visualizer in the itunes window. when I uncheck full screen in preferences it does not take. I'ts automatically checked when I open preferences.

  • AE won't STAY on my network....and can't talk to it via wire...

    Been wrestling with a new fios connection and wireless router.
    So after some good advice here, I'm trying to re-establish my AE LAN as it was with DSL, which was one AE at DSL modem, one AE for air tunes at the stereo.
    I've got the AE at the FIOS router doing it's thing...but when I add the AE for the stereo through Airport Setup, it gives me the "Congrats!" screen, but it doesn not show up on ITunes and it does not show up on the network if I look for it with airport Utility.
    I tried to use an ethernet cable to change the channel to match the AE at the Fios, and that worked once, but now, if I try to use the cable to link up to it, I can't see the AE.
    Did I kill this AE somehow?

    Thanks Bruce.
    The Actiontec router is connected via a wire to one AE (Basement).
    I could not find a way to disable the Actionnet router wireless signal, but it doesn not seem to matter. The Basement AE is on our Family Newtork, I can see it in Airport Admin Utilty.
    My second AE (stereo) is the one that does not seem to work. I reset it, then sometimes Airport Setup Assistant can see the Stereo AE briefly and I'll add it to the Family Network, but then it will immediately dissappear, start a slow amber flash and not be seen by either Setup Assistant or Airport Admin Utility.
    The Family Network is working for internet signal, but I've got no iTunes to the stereo.
    BTW, this is exactly how I had these two AE's working with our DSL modem prior to upgrading to FIOS - one at the modem and one at the stereo, both on the family network.
    Thanks.
