Re: Most of times Satellite T110 webcam fails to initialize

It happens most of te times.
The webcam of my T110 fails to initilize, and a message appears saying that Web cam failed to initilize, please verify the device and restart the program (Web Camera Aplication) or the computer!
Other times, it works, but after a pop up appears on task bar saying that a unsupported USB device was detected and couldn't be installed!
This is anoying! Can anybody help me please?
Thank you.

Hi
Seems that the webcam software stopped working.
I think you should firstly try to reinstall this software.
Remove firstly the webcam software from the system.
Then clean the system and registry using CCleaner!
Reboot the notebook twice and run CCleaner several times to ensure that everything has been cleaned properly.
Then download the webcam software from the Toshiba European driver page and install it.
Then reboot the unit. Start msconfig (in RUN type msconfig) and go to Startup tab.
There you should uncheck mark from the webcam software. This will prevent the software from starting automatically. Reboot the unit.
Now if you would like to use the webcam go to All programs -> Toshiba -> webcam software and start it.

    Hi
    Khalid....... when I first had the laptop in January the webcam worked. Now when I login I have a popup that says webcam failed to initialize please restart the programme? I can't find the programme. My husband who is really good with computers has looked and even he cant find how to fix this. I did restore my laptop back to factory settings as someone else suggested to me and it still doesn't work. I have gone to Toshiba website and downloaded drivers etc, still getting same message, therefore I am not getting anything at all!
    Akuma....when I first had laptop the webcam worked with Windows Live Messenger. I don't have Yahoo Messenger and I did use Skype for a while but since restoring laptop back to factory settings have not downloaded it.
    I bought the laptop with Windows 7 installed. All the programmes you asked if I have that might clash are in my list of programmes as what Windows 7 recommend.

  • Qosmio X500-110 - Webcam failed to initialize

    Hi
    I have a Qosmio x500-110. Bought brand new out of the box and I havnt changed nothing.
    It displays this error message after startup "webcamera failed to initialize...restart application or computer" and the webcam stops working. Also when this happens the finger print reader and bluetooth devices also stop working. The finger print say "failed to connect to sensor". As soon as you restart the computer it works fine. Then again it may go anytime.
    I dont know wat is causing this prblem. I have downloaded and reinstalled the drivers also (Windows 7 64bit) and the softwares for the same but dosnt help.

    Hi
    So you have already reinstalled the webcam driver and still running preinstalled OS without any 3rd party applications and this error occurs?
    Well, I think in this case your only chance is the authorized service provider. The technicians should check your notebook, maybe its a hardware problem or something else. Just contact the guys and explain the situation. They will help you as best as possible.
    Good luck! :)

  • C650 Webcam failing to initialise.

    I have a C650 model (C650-196 I think, though I don't know how to check ) and the inbuilt webcam has stopped working. Whenever I load the laptop up, I get an alert box saying the webcam has failed to initialize. Skype and MSN tell me I have no webcam, and it is not listed under any device listings on my computer. Therefore I'm assuming the problem is with the device and not the software, but I'm no expert so I'm unsure.
    I don't know how to fix this problem. Will I have to send the computer off for a new webcam? Or is there a solution?
    Anyone else had this problem??
    Thanks.

  • Satellite A350-20Q - WEBCAM FAILED or is DISABLED

    Can anyone help me to get my webcam back?
    Went on one of those geek websites which tells you how to make your computer run faster, by disabling things youre not using. Cant remember what I've done but webcam doesnt work anymore. Tried reinstalling Drivers and rebooting Camera Assist Software but the same message comes up every time - "WEBCAM FAILED or is DISABLED".
    Would appreciate any help or advice before I have to pay the local computer shop to sort it out.

    Somehow the operating system cannot detect the cam.
    What you can try is to test it with factory settings. If the same will happen again I presume it is hardware related issue. Webcam can be defective or it is not connected properly to the mainboard.

  • IMac G3 chimes two to four times upon boot and fails to load.

    Hello, all.
    Today, I moved my aunt from my old iMac G3 to my less old iMac G4. The iMac G3 was working great still at her house, so I decided to take it home with me to replace the iMac G4. I didn't really plan on using it to any extent, but thought it would be cool to have still working.
    So I pop it in the car on the passenger seat, drive the mile back home, and unload it onto my desk. I plug power, ethernet, keyboard/mouse and a USB extension cable in, and attempt to boot. When I hit the power button, the iMac makes an attempt to chime, but it kinda does two loud chimes, a faint third chime, and a fourth loud chime. After that, it just sits there with the power button light on and nothing happens.
    Now I'm gonna admit it. This was done on an extension cord coming off of a three-way splitter coming off a power strip. Not the safest or most practical way to do this, but I figured that since it worked with my old eMac G4 that had a 17" CRT, it would work with my iMac G3 with a 15" CRT.
    So I moved the power directly to the wall. This time, I plugged in only the power and nothing else. I press the power button, and it still does the weird chime and fails to load.
    So does anyone have any clues as to what to try? Before you tell me to bust this thing open, I'm gonna say this: I am deathly afraid of CRT monitors, and generally stay as far away as humanly possible from them. The iMac has had a history of few problems, but one of those was a loud, high pitched noise coming from the screen when it was in my aunt's basement. This was probably due to being to cold, or humidity, but switching screen resolutions seemed to fix it. I could switch back and it went along fine. I know it's the screen that was making the sound because my eMac had done the same thing just a week prior, even though it was in an environmentally-sound room, along with some other computers.
    Anyway, she has since moved the iMac G3 up to the main part of the house that stays at a fairly steady 75F or so year round and doesn't get too humid. It's worked great, and we were gonna move her up to the G4 for speed benefits and so that she could video chat in Skype. When I last powered down the iMac G3, it was running absolutely fine. I got all the important data off it (thank God) and transferred to the iMac G4. I gently, without bumping it on anything, took it out to the car, gently set it on the foam-cushioned seat, and gently drove it home. When I got it home, I gently took it out, gently took it to the desk, and gently set it down. After a while, I put it screen-down on my lap to read the stuff on the bottom. I undid the RAM cover, popped out a stick, and put it back in. I haven't really gone back to check, but I'm about 90% sure that I got it in perfectly fine. After I looked at it, I gently set it back on the table and did the whole boot process that I explained earlier.
    So what in the world could be causing this? Did I really bump it on something, or could it be a weather problem, or could it be that it decided to just stop working at the most perfect time?
    Specs are as follows:
    iMac G3 600 mHz Graphite
    Mac OS X Tiger 10.4.11 or whatever the last update was
    1GB RAM
    40GB HD
    ATi Rage 128 or whatever it is that's in these things
    Combo drive
    No Airport card
    No internal mods
    Never been opened since I purchased it in late 2006.
    Also, I think this would be the best place to note that there are little red pieces of what appears to be hard plastic. It looks to be about as thick as the casing that goes around the back. I remember it being in the speaker grill when I first got it, but after moving around, it has moved mostly to the bottom, just under the CD-RW/DVD drive. You can clearly see it through the translucent plastics of the iMac's casing. Not sure what the heck it is, how it got there, or if it has any significant importance to the problem at hand, but I figured it would be worth a shot by shouting that out.
    OH, one more thing. I noticed, on the last successful boot at my aunt's house, that the sound would not work. I tried moving the slider up to change the volume, and nothing worked. It wouldn't turn the sound on. Very mysterious. Other than that though, it hasn't had any issues that I've seen.
    Sorry for the huge post, but I just want to know if it's my stupidity stopping it from booting or if it really did just decide to end its usable life at the precise moment it wasn't absolutely needed anymore. I will check the RAM and post back if that fixes anything, so if there isn't a reply from me saying that I checked RAM and it fixed it, then it's still being a problem and the RAM wasn't the problem.
    And if it really did just decide to stop working, does anyone know of anyone that puts Mac Mini's inside iMac G3 cases? It would be pretty freaking awesome if I could take my Mac Mini, put it in there, and possibly get rid of the CRT and replace it with an LCD panel. I've heard that it's been done before, but again, I'm deathly afraid of the stupid things that are CRT screens. Long story short, one imploded about three yards away from me and it scared the living **** out of me. I really wish all CRTs would just STOP working RIGHT NOW so that everyone had to move to LCD screens. It would make my life so much easier. Hey, why not start with my iMac? All right everyone, if you own a CRT monitor or a computer with a CRT monitor built in, make sure it isn't working by Tuesday, okay? *Shudders in fear of an imploding CRT...*

    Since you removed/re-installed one of the memory DIMMs from the computer, that's the most likely culprit (as the computer worked perfectly earlier). Remove it again and re-install, making sure that it's fully-seated in the slot and that the locking levers snap closed at each end. Try booting the iMac again. If unsuccessful, immediately insert your Tiger installer DVD when you power ON and hold down the C key. If it boots to the Tiger disk, run Disk Utility to scan and repair the hard drive.

  • Satellite A660 - Camera device failed to initialize after BIOS update

    I bought a Satellite A660 PSAW3A-07P00R last December. Yesterday I updated to BIOS version 1.9 (did not record what version before the update). Running Windows 7 Home Premium.
    After the update, I got this message when I want to use the built-in webcam. The message is "Camera device failed to initialize. Either the device is in use by another application, or it is not recognized by the system." I have tried to open the device manager but cannot find any image or camera device there. I have also download the webcam application version 1.1.1.15 from Toshiba site but it does not install.
    Is it any way to revert the BIOS back to the old version? Can Toshiba look at this problem for BIOS version 1.9? Has any one come across with this and finally fix it? Your suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
    Regards,
    Will

    Hi
    Only the ASP can revert the BIOS to early version because they could reflash the BIOS using the BIOS DOS-rational BIOS.
    But the point is that if you are using the right BIOS, then the webcam should work properly in connection with the new update.
    So I agree with Xardas. You should set the BIOS to default settings and should save the changes before you would leave the BIOS.
    Then uninstall the webcam software and disable also some background processes which could lock the webcam. This can be done in msconfig.
    I would also recommend cleaning the registry using the CCLeaner who knows whats is going wrong with the OS registry so CCleaner helps you to clean the registry entries.
    After several reboots, you could try to install the webcam software once again.
    Good luck

  • Satellite T110 - WLan connection has recently stopped working

    I have a Toshiba Satellite T110 with Windows 7 Home Premium.
    The wireless connection has recently stopped working, with the yellow exclamation mark showing over the device symbol.
    On looking at the driver management screen, the following message is shown.
    "This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31)"
    Nothing I have tried seems to shake this error.
    I tried the Toshiba assist diagnostic tool. It simply says the Wireless Connection failed its test.
    I don't know how problem came about because the system worked for about three weeks without a hitch, but I would like to know if anyone else has any experience at solving this problem.
    I could try a rebuild, but I'd prefer not to loose my OS.

    Yes, I downloaded the driver, and re-installed it so it over wrote the existing driver and the WLAN came back and works OK, using it now.
    THis issue was more complicated than I initially thought and I pass it on to help/warn others.
    All my LAN connections were lost, while I was using a public open connection. I suspect a virus. I still have parts of the LAN hardware out, but not stuff I am currently using.
    The Toshiba recovery options were in fact quite limited, without an ability to access all the dud drivers, other than each by hand. A painful process.
    THanks for your help. Another 'gator sunk.

  • Satellite T110-11U - Can't find the WLAN router

    Hi,
    I have a Toshiba Satellite T110-11U. Have had it since Feb and loved it - happily used it wireless throughout the house. Then one day about a month ago unless I was in the same room as the wireless router, wireless doesn't work. I have 2 other laptops (and an iPhone) that still connect wirelessly throughout the house and the garden without problem.
    As you can imagine, this was very strange. When I take it out in to the garden, my other laptops find all the wireless networks in the area, but my Toshiba finds none.
    Suspecting it was a driver issue, I made sure the wireless drivers were up to date. With no joy there, I recovered the system to as it was when purchased (doing a full restore by interupting the booting up and letting the hard disk be wiped and reinstalled etc). Still the same problem. I've even changed the rooms the router is in, and the same problem - the Toshiba can't find the router unless the router is within a couple of metres of the laptop.
    Before I lose the will to live, can someone suggest the cause of my problems, or is it time I admitted defeat and took it back to comet under warranty (where the will probably test it next to a wireless router and tell me all is fine!).
    Many thanks,
    Steve.

    >the Toshiba can't find the router unless the router is within a couple of metres of the laptop
    Does this mean that the T110 can find the wlan but only if its placed near the router?
    Just other hint;
    Go to BIOS and set it to default! Ensure hat Wlan is enabled and dont forget to save the changes.
    You should also go to control panel -> device manager -> Wlan card properties -> Advanced tab.
    Should check the Wlan settings like the Wlan encryption, Wlan channel, etc
    Be sure you have enabled the WLan card on your notebook as well!

  • Time Capsule 'Back up Failed'

    Hi,
    I have had my time capsule for 8 months now with no issues, until recently when I have noticed an exclamation mark in the centre of time machine icon at the top of my desktop.
    when attempting to 'back up now' it highlights a message saying 'back up failed,' I have trolled through several posts with similar issues but to no success on how to fix this. It has happend twice now and the only way I have found to correct it is by powering down the TC and leaving it for a while before turning it back on. This has worked on both occasions however I am looking for some advice on a more permanant cure or any suggestions to help? as it is getting annoying.
    Thank you

    If it is a bug in the system would it not effect all TC's? Is this something a replacement will cure?
    No, it is not uniform or easy even to reproduce the problem.. the people who have it never get rid of it.. no matter what measures they take.. but it is odd.. it can work fine for many months.. just as you have discovered.. but having triggered it.. you can never dispose of it.. like fleas on a dog.. !!
    I do a lot of messing around and repairing of Time Capsules with power supply issues.. but I do not have that issue. This is what makes it hard to track down.. plus Apple has removed all the diagnostics from TC and the airport utility. It is just too simple for words. It is designed to work at the most basic level and if that fails.. too bad!!

  • Time Capsule backup constantly failing with error message - error message 11 but different file.

    Hi
    I have had problems with my backup failing since 12 June
    Most of the time I get error message 11 (have had error message 31 once) and each time it is a different file. The last failure gave this message in console

    I have followed Pondini C3 by excluding the file from the first message but then failure occurred with a different file so excluded that and it failed again.
    Went through repair A5 - that took an age even connecting via ethernet - still not working.
    I have to confess that before I got to Pondini troubleshooting I googled the problem and a forum said delete latest and partial backups from sparse bundle - I did this via Finder and now I can't get rid of them from trash - discovered via Pondini I shouldn't have done this and tried E6 but without success.
    What are my options?
    I can use a computer but technical jargon is like Hieroglyphics to me so if you can reply in simple plain English that would be useful

    Did you delete the Latest alias, and/or the most reccent time-stamped backup?  If so, your backups are toast. 
    Your only option is to erase the Time Capsule's disk and let Time Machine start fresh.  See To erase everything on the Time Capsule’s internal disk in #Q5 of Using Time Machine with a Time Capsule.
