Re: Qosmio X300 - Webcam is not working

Hi there,
First of all, my apologies if this issue has already been discussed and solved in another thread - I tried searching this forum for "webcam" but didn't get any results.
Right, my laptop model is: Qosmio X300-11S PQX32E-00M00LEN and am currently running Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium edition.
I while go I noticed my webcam wasn't working (yes, it used to work once upon time). When I launch the 'Camera Assistant Software' I get the following message " Webcam is either disabled or has failed. Please check your webcam settings."
I tried downloading the driver and reinstall it and the device manager indicates no errors.
Anyhow, yesterday (for some other reasons) I decided to reformat and do a fresh installation of Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium edition. I have installed all relevant drivers from Toshiba website this morning and, still webcam not functioning.
I would appreciate any input.
Thanks in advance.

Im wondering why you dont try to recover the notebook using the Toshiba HDD recovery or the recovery disks?
I mean, all drivers and everything else is preinstalled on the Toshiba image and setting the notebook back to factory settings, should help to get the webcam working.

Qosmio F750-03W - face recognition not start and video freezes

I apologize for my English.
Nvidia 3D testing program wheel shots. The face recognition does not start.
If on, the image activator 3D is disturbed and I do not see the image in 3D.
If I try the Games 3D compatible (Left4Dead) activates the 3D in 1080p but the game is jerky as the test image 3D not activate the face recognition.
3D play is to see in 2D photos into 3D but how do I vadere photos in 3D?
If active 3D activator the image quality is poor.
I did set both normal and advanced, but the videos have gost effects especially on the sides.

Hi
It looks your Qosmio F750-03W PQF75C-03W001 is an Toshiba Canadian model as I found this here:
http://support.toshiba.ca/support/isg/center/en/index.asp?s1=Notebook&s2=Qosmio&s3=F750&s4=PQF75C-03W001
First of all you should update the BIOS to the latest version (at this time it seems that BIOS 2.0 is the latest one).
Also update the
nVidia Display Driver version 8.17.12.9039
Super-D IC Driver version 1.0.1613.809
Toshiba Blu-ray Disc Player version 1.0.1.299
as mentioned here http://support.toshiba.ca/support/isg/tsb/en/view.asp?docid=TSB001633
if 3D stereo effects are not ok use the X-tune to calibrate this.
You are recommended to use this utility to optimize the 3D stereo effects when using the Glasses-Free 3D function for the first time or being unsatisfied with the 3D effects.
To operate the X-Tune utility, follow the steps as described below:
1. Select the language and optimization mode, and then click OK. There are three optimization modes: Primary, Advanced and Professional. You can choose one based on your own experience.
2. Sitting about 60cm away from your computer, click Start to continue.
3. Follow the on-screen instructions on each step.
4. Use the left or right arrow key on the keyboard to adjust the effect. When you are satisfied with the effect, click Enter and then an information window will appear on the screen. Press the ESC key on the keyboard to cancel the optimization procedure.
5. Click Finish to close the X-Tune utility.
You said your face recognition does not work properly so uninstall this software. Do this also with the webcam driver/software. After both tools has been uninstalled, clean registry using CCleaner and install both tools again using the newest version.
Reboot and start the X-Tune again to calibrate the 3D effects.
In the Toshiba doc (link posted above) you can find this notice:
1. Set [Screen resolution] to 1920x1080. Glasses free 3D mode is not enabled except in 1920x1080 mode.
2. Depending on game, it does not work with glasses free 3D mode and work with 2D mode.
3. Depending on game, it is not displayed correctly with stereoscopic 3D mode
4. Game is not displayed with glasses free 3D mode when running TOSHIBA Blu-ray Disc Player with glasses free 3D mode
or running TOSHIBA Web Camera application.
5. The performance of the game will be decreased when playing game with glasses free 3D mode. If the performance of the game is decreased dramatically, please decrease the quality of image of the game using settings
of the game. If the performance of the game is still not enough, please disable glasses free 3D mode by unchecking [Enable stereoscopic 3D] at NVIDIA Control Panel.
6. Small fonts in the games may be difficult to read with glasses free 3D mode. At that time, please push 3D button of PC and disable glasses free 3D mode temporarily. Glasses free 3D mode is enabled if you push 3D button again
7. The response of the game may delay with glasses free 3D mode enabled. If you feel it and can not enjoy the game, please disable glasses free 3D mode by unchecking [Enable stereoscopic 3D] at NVIDIA Control Panel.
8. Glasses free 3D mode can be disabled temporarily by pressing 3D button of PC but it may be enabled while playing game. At that time, please push 3D button and disable it again.
9. When [Enable stereoscopic 3D] in NVIDIA Control Panel is unchecked, game will start with 2D mode. At this time, glasses free 3D mode is not enabled even if you pressed 3D button of PC while playing the game.
10. Glasses free 3D mode may be enabled except TOSHIBA Blu-ray Disc Player and games. At this time, please disable glasses free 3D mode by unchecking [Enable stereoscopic 3D] at NVIDIA Control Panel.
11. The color of video may be different from original when playing video with full screen mode on RGB and non 3D TV if [Enable stereoscopic 3D] is checked. At this time, please disable glasses free 3D mode by unchecking [Enable stereoscopic 3D] at NVIDIA Control Panel.
Hope this helps.

Webcam not starting through YouCam application

I have an HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook, product number LW217UA#ABA.
I haven't had any trouble with the webcam in the past, but when I tried to Skype recently my camera wouldnt turn on. Then I went to the YouCam application, and I get an error message stating: "No webcam detected. Try plugging in a webcam into your computer now. if you are using an integrated camera, make sure it is turned on."
Ive searched for help on this issue through the forums and I was told to check the device manager to see if there is any imaging device listed. There is not. If this is indeed the problem, how do I go about fixing it?
Thanks.

Hi Bmh,
The sad thing about webcams is that they can last forever - then they die. Or not. There is no way to tell for sure what is wrong with it EXCEPT that the Device Manager cannot see it. Unfortunately, the Device Manager is pretty stupid: it either sees a device (your webcam) or it does not. There is no in between. The bit doing the managing is really the YouCam driver.
There is a rather limited document you can look at that shows what to do in the even that your webcam stops working (or never worked). Here is the link:
Connecting and Testing Webcam in Windows 7
The document may help... and may not if your webcam is really dead or really stuck...
===========================================================================
You can try resetting the Notebook. This is called the "Hard Reset" because it kicks everything, presumably hard enough to reset all the connections - IF the webcam has not developed a loose wire connection (a real possibility and one you've no doubt read about here on the forum), then the Reset may reset the webcam connection with the Device Manager.
Hard Reset:
Sometimes all you need to do is kick the computer. This method works for a variety of connection and ‘stuck’ program issues.
Disconnect all external devices first.
Remove AC power and the battery
Press and hold power button for at least 30 seconds
Reinstall only AC power for first startup ** See Note
Power on - Log in
Next time you shut down the system, reinstall battery.
** Note: You can ignore the bit about leaving the battery out. If you like, reinstall battery the first time and be done with it.
===========================================================================
There are lots and lots of HP forum posts on webcams - I've written some of them. READ, read, read. Help may be here somewhere. Don't give up yet.
If you try everything, do everything, and nothing works:
Get it fixed by sending it in for repair (that does work, I've done this.)
Give up and buy a really nice Logitec Pro 9000 webcam - awesome clip-on webcam, I've done this.
Buy a new notebook, I've not done this to fix a webcam, but a new notebook is a great thing to have
Don't kill the messanger. I don't work for HP. I've had webcams that work for years. I've also had webcams that were DOA from the factory on a brand new notebook. It happens.
I hope this helps!

Satellite P300D-110 integrated webcam is not functioning properly.

Hello everyone,
as the title says, the integrated webcam of my Toshiba Satellite P300D-110 is not functioning properly. Allow me to explain. Using the Camera Assistance Software I can take photo's and record music. If I try to record a video the preview screen turns up black and the end result tuns out black aswell, completely black.
Whenever I try to use my camera with applications such as MSN Live Messenger, Skype or at community websites using Firefox, Internet Explorer or Safari the application in question crashes.
*How did this happen?*
You tell me. This is how it went;
* Day 1: I've started up my laptop and looked at my fresh and clean install of windows vista home premium. I tried out my webcam using the webcam assistance software and it worked like a charm.
* Day 2: Once again I boot up my laptop and try to start my webcam only to find out that it no longer functions.
To give a quick summary of the thread;
* Using Camera Assistance Software provided by Toshiba I can take pictures.
* Using Camera Assistance Software provided by Toshiba I can record sound.
* Using Camera Assistance Software provided by Toshiba I can _*NOT*_ record or preview a video.
* I can not start my camera using any other application such as but not limited to; MSN Live Messenger, Skype, Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safar.
* I have downloaded and isntalled the latest drivers from the Toshiba website.
* My laptop is about a week old.
I'm not sure what more I can do, all I want is for the webcam to work, if anyone can help me out please do so.
And if possible WITHOUT having to reinstall Windows Vista Home Premium.
I haven't even used it and wouldn't want to make that a solution for all the problems that might occur in the future.
Sincerely,
a sad customer.

Using Camera Assistance Software provided by Toshiba I can NOT record or preview a video.
Can you please describe the steps how you try to do this? I must ask you this because it runs well on my notebook. When the recording is finished player opens and you can see recorded movie. It is avi format and at the top of this player you can see the path where the movie is saved.
Most strange thing for me is that you cannot use it with Skype. Ok for MSN is not the perfect but there is absolutely no problem with Skype. Check the settings and it must work somehow.

Microsof VX 3000 or 6000 Webcam does not work with Lync 2013 under Windows 8.1

Hi,
The problem is that i cannot use the Microsoft VX-3000 or VX-6000 with Lync 2013 under Windows 8.1.
If i go in settings under Video i can see the preview from the webcam just fine, so it works there no problem.
Wenn i try to enable my camera in a conference it does not work, i get an error: Your video cannot be started.
Now, there are no Windows 8.1 drivers for the Webcam so i installed the latest Windows 7 drivers. Because of that this webcam does not work with apps, that is fine i understand the driver problem and the way the new apps work.
But this Webcam works with skype under Windows 8.1 and it works with Lync 2010 client.
The same Webcam works just fine with Lync 2013 under Windows 7.
Is there anything i could do so that i get this Webcam to work with Lync 2013 desktop client under Windows 8.1?
Thanks

Hi,
According to your description, it may be caused by driver.
You can try to install the latest version of Display Driver to fix the display issue.
Since there is no driver for Windows 8.1, I suggest you wait for updating.
You can also post a case on Windows 8 forum, thank you for your understanding:

Webcam won't start anymore

I'm using HP Mini 210, Windows 7 Starter. The last time I used the built-in cam was 5 days ago. I used it to record a video. No update has been made ever since, but now that I wanna use it again, it won't start. It doesn't show any image when I open the default webcam software, "HP Camera". Even in sites such as webcamtoy, it only shows up blank. The light near the webcam lights up, the cam doesn't seem to work.

Hello PepNisperos,
I understand you state your HP webcam is not working, is that correct? I will be happy to help you.
I need to get the product number for your HP Mini, if you look at the bottom side there should be a sticker with product number or P/N. Here is a link that will hopefully help you locate that tag/sticker.
Please respond back at your earliest convenience.
Thanks

Tips for when your webcam is not detected

EDIT: If you have recently upgraded to Windows 8 and are experiencing this issue please read this document.
Here are some tips for resolving a webcam not detected problem. I see this question get asked a lot so here are the steps you should take to resolve the issue.
To begin you should make sure the device is being detected by Windows. The following instructions are for Windows 7, but should be very similar for Windows Vista and Windows 8.
Option 1: Check Device Manager to make sure it is working properly.
Click your Start button, type “Device Manager,” and press Enter.
Once Device Manager loads click “View” and then “Show Hidden Devices.”
Locate the “Imaging Devices” section.
Note whether you see the webcam here.
If the webcam is listed, right click it and verify that it is not “Disabled.”
If webcam is listed and not disabled, move onto Option 2. If the webcam is not listed you will move onto Option 4.
Option 2: Allow Windows to Re-install the device.
While still in Device Manager right click on your webcam and select “Uninstall”
If prompted select “remove driver and driver package.”
Reboot your notebook and allow Windows to attempt to reinstall the webcam.
If Windows detects the webcam verify the functionality of the webcam.
If Windows does not detect the webcam and install it move onto Option 3.
Option 3: Manually install the drivers for your webcam.
Use this website to determine your product/model number.
Visit the HP Support Page and use this product number to visit your product’s specific page.
Go to “Drivers and Software” and locate the driver for your webcam. NOTE: the drivers for the webcam are sometimes bundled with the YouCam software.
Download and install this driver.
Reboot the PC.
Verify functionality.
Option 4: Manually re-detecting the hardware.
Disconnect all external devices.
Shut down the notebook.
Remove the battery and AC power.
Press and hold the power button for 10-15 seconds.
Reinstall the battery and AC power. Then turn the notebook on.
Once Windows is loaded go back to Device Manager.
Selection “Action” and then “Scan for hardware changes.”
If Device Manager detects the hardware allow it to install.
If Device Manager does not detect the hardware see Option 5.
Option 5: System Restore and System Recovery.
This is outlined very well in this document. Note that any data that is not backed up prior to a recovery will be lost.
Options 6: Repair or replacement.
If none of these solutions have worked for you it is likely that you are experiencing a hardware failure. It is possible to replace the webcam or reseat a loose ribbon cable. However, this is one of the more difficult repairs on the notebook. If you would like to attempt this repair you can visit your notebook’s support page and navigate to the “Manuals” section. There is normally a “Maintenance and Service Guide” for the notebooks, this will cover the disassembly of the notebook. You can then use HP Parts Surfer to locate the part for your notebook.
If you do not wish to attempt a repair yourself you can inquire with HP about a repair. For customers in the US/Canada you can call 1-800-474-6836. If you’re not in this region you’ll need to visit HP’s Support Site to get your area’s contact information.

'''(in English)'''

Hi Danny,
Per my understanding that you can't get the expect result by using the expression "=Count(Fields!TICKET_STATUS.Value=4) " to count the the TICKET_STATUS which value is 4, the result will returns the count of all the TICKET_STATUS values(206)
but not 180, right?
I have tested on my local environment and can reproduce the issue, the issue caused by you are using the count() function in the incorrect way, please modify the expression as below and have a test:
=COUNT(IIF(Fields!TICKET_STATUS.Value=4 ,1,Nothing))
or
=SUM(IIF(Fields!TICKET_STATUS=4,1,0))
If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.
