Satellite L300-256 - web cam isn't working - Just show Black Colour.

Hello,
i use Toshiba L300-256 model laptop and my web cam was working before some months and today i opened it and it seems to be stopped working.
Its CHICONY USB 2.0 webcam
At first it shows that "some application prevent its working". So i uninstalled all newly installed programs. Then also my webcam didnt work. So i unistalled the driver and installed it again from the driver file downloaded from here. Then also my problem didnt fixed. It just show dark background in the place where image will come while capturing.
Camera blue light is appearing but there isnt any picture coming, eventhough i am in a bright lighted room.
Please help me to fix this issue.
Thanks

Hi
Do you use face recognition utility?
This software locks and use the webcam too
Maybe there is something wrong between these both tools
In your case I recommend uninstalling the face recognition and webcam software.
Clean the registry using CCLeaner (freeware).
Then reboot twice and start with webcam installation then check if the webcam would works

  • Satellite T130: inbuilt web camera has stopped working

    Hi, I have the same problem of the question bellow, like I have looked around and I was not able to find the answer I need.
    I have a Satellite T130 and, suddenly, the inbuilt web camera has stopped working properly. A blue light is on, but there is no image. What can I do?
    Thank you

    Hi,
    the blue light is beside the web cam, on the top of screen. But this light is on when I try to use the web cam in anywhere, like Skype, Msn or even in programs in the computer that only take a pictue or make a video of you, without ineternet (I do not know the name of this program). But it seems that computer and the programs recognize the web cam, because there is no messages when I turn on the web cam.
    In Skype settings is the same, there is nothing wrong, there is no different message. The only thing is when I try to take picture a message appears: "failed", but the video seems to record normally, although everythng is black.
    Could you understand what I meant?
    Sorry about my english....

  • My camera is not working, just a black screen, won't take pics please help

    WWhy won't my camera take pics..just a black screen ?

    CClose the camera app and reset the iPad.
    In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Next, reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    Hello Manishshakya,
    I see that you are having problems with the webcam on your computer. The unit you have is a HP commercial unit.
    I would suggest posting your problem in the HP Commercial Forum as well. There are more users with the computer you have on this board and it is specific to your computer.

  • Web-Cam does not work on Lenovo G480, PLEAS HELP!!

    Hello,
    I have a Lenovo G480 (20165), and my built-in Web-Cam is not working.
    When I enable it by pressing Fn+Esc the little light by the Web-Cam turns on, then shuts off after a second.
    So I downloaded the Lenovo Easy Capture, and when I open the software, I get a message saying "Failed To Open Camera".
    And when I turn on my laptop, the little light comes on for a short moment, then the light shuts off.
    I don't know what to do, It's a brand-new laptop and I've never been able to get the Web-Cam to work, not even on Skype.
    I would REALLY appreciate the help. Thank you!

    Skype does run on Windows 8.1, although you may need to update Skype to at least version 6.16.0.105

  • My iPod touch 5 front camera isn't working, how do I fix it?

    My I pod touch 5 front camera isn't working. How can I fix it. I have also already tried to reset it multiple times.

    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • My ipod touch camera isn't working!!!

    my ipod touch camera isn't working, it just shows the shutter. The only way I can take a photo is if I use the front camera with instagram. Please Help! What do I do?
    I have tried everything apart from a complete restore. PLEASE HELP!

    Try:
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    Just bought the new iPhone4S yesterday, and my back camera isn't working/loading up. But my front camera works fine. What's wrong? Can anyone help?

    I had the same problem- go to Utilities, General, Use Side Switch To, and change it from Mute to Lock Rotation- this solved the problem for me.
    Good luck!

  • Hp TrueVision HD web cam does not work. The light will come on but no image appears in the window.

    Hi.
     I have an HP Pavilion dv7 6178us Entertainment PC I just bought it last week. My operating system is Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1 64 bits.
    The problem I have is that yesterday I install Skype in the computer and realized that the HP TrueVision HD web cam does not work. The light right next to the web cam will light up but no image will appear on the screen.
    I have checked the software that  I have in the computer for the webcam and the program is CyberLink YouCam BE version 3.5.
    But the web cam does not work. The light right next to it will turn on when I activate Cyberlink, Skype or Messenger but no actual image will come out in computer screen. The computer is fully updated BIOS, Windows 7 and HP.
    But the web cam is not working. Could you help me fix this problem?
    Best regards:

    I have a pavilion dv6 notepad. it's about a year old.

    But if it was the case with my computer, the webcam would not be detected.
    Many other comments suggests to do a restore to factory setting but \i read also that
    does not work often.
    I read many comments where disappointed clients believe hp should update
    the software but the driver is actually microsoft dating back to june 2006.
    Is it possible it's  a hardware problem, ie webcam is burned out.
    I have received a box to sent it and know they will do a system restore.
    Don't feel to go that way.
    Many comments refers to hp making an effort to get a driver update.

    I have used skype a lot and it's never been a problem. Now all of a sudden my camera isn't working in skype or any other application.

    AirDrop requires both Blutooth and WiFi operating, and works only between two iPhones model 5 or later.  No other iPhone models or other brands of phones support AirDrop.
