  • Skype can't detect any webcam

    Hi, Since I updated the newer version of skype 6.11, my video does not work anymore. When I go under options, I get the message, "skype can't detect any webcam". I have a built-in camera in my laptop using windows 7. I know my camera works, but I don't know how to make skype detect my built-in camera. So far, I can call people, I see and hear them and they can hear me, but they can't see me since I don't even have the options to put on my camera anymore. Please, can anyone help me with this issue? I have already uninstalled and reinstalled skype, but it does not work. Thank you

  • Can't detect webcam on EeePC 1025c

    Laptop Asus EeePC 1025c, can't detect webcam.
    No webcam at lsusb, can't find any references in dmesg, journal, lshw, rfkill, in BIOS, in /sys/.
    Also, in many guides there is /sys/devices/platform/eeepc, but I have eeepc-wmi, and no "camera" there.
    No camera, video or media at /dev/.
    All information at http://dl.dropbox.com/u/34707423/logs/index.html
    Kernel - 3.5.1-1, also try on 3.2.13-1.
    I remebmer, that camera works few months ago.
    Maybe it phisically broken?

    But perphaps, it is disabled in BIOS, same place that wifi or bluetooth.
    Something like "onboard devices configuration"?
    Actually, it looks like it is not a USB device at all.  I think the OP has it working now, the camera is found by the video for Linux infrastructure.
    Edit:  Sorry, I became confused.  I thought cookies was the OP.  Sorry about that.

  • Skype can't detect sound card

    Skype was working just fine previously when making a video call (could hear the other person well - no problems.) Then I stopped using the monitor stereo speakers and installed desktop speakers.
    Wasn't happy with them and uninstalled them about a day or two later. When I tried to make a video call again (after choosing monitor speakers again under the pc control panel - sounds and audio devices, also tried to choose monitor stereo speakers in Skype but didn't see this option) - there was no sound - even on the Skype test.
    So I tried "check settings" and saw under speaker - "can't detect your sound card". Under adjust speaker settings there's no speaker suggestions at all - it just says none.
    I also cancelled the speaker setting on SoundMAX digital integrated audio under the control panel.
    I have rebooted the system but still the same problem!

    I'v sorted out the problem. Sorry for the inconvenience!

  • Skype doesn't detect webcam on new windows 8 lapto...

    I have a new laptop pre-shipped with windows 8. I installed skype via the skype download page, and after the install I see that it does not detect my webcam.
    I go to Tools->Options and skype doesn't detect that any webcam exists on the system.
    I've changed the windows 8 webcam privacy settings to allow skype to use my webcam, though I'm not clear if this affects the normal old desktop skype or that new metro skype (I'm not even quite clear if those are two separate applications, that whole metro thing is still just weird and unuseable to me, not sure why I'd ever want skype to take over the whole desktop as it does if you go into it from the metro interface).
    There are tons of results for webcams not woring in skype, but after going through many of them they don't seem to cover this case of "skype just doesn't detect the webcam in windows 8".

  • Mac OSX 10.5.7 Leopard can not detect webcam

    Hello Support,
    I am using Mac OSX 10.5.7 Leopard in Safari and FireFox however Flash Player v 9 and 10 does not detect my isight webcam (firewire). I can not even change my settings to choose a webcam because the image that I get when I go to the settings is just a screenshot but not interactive. I have attached the picture.
    Does Flash player work in Mac OSX 10.5.7 Leopard Safari and FireFox? I get as far as the allow or deny button, then I get a error message saying that my cam is not detected.
    Can you please advise.
    Thanks in advance

    Man... gmax3100 have a POOR opengl performance under Mac Osx Leopard in 2d. It is NOT my problem but it is a known problem. Try to run some benchmark with gma950 and gma x3100.
    Macbook c2d 2.2 opengl performance x3100: 23.28
    MacMini cd 1.6 opengl performance gma950: 184.76
    it is a know problem:

    ecc.
    exposè make 40fps and it is NOT fluid like a nvidia or ati card. Exposè is a simple animation, under arch linux and geforce3 (2001) is more more fluid respect leopard... and respect to tiger.
    with this hack:
    sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver Compositor -dict deferredUpdates 0
    exposè is much MORE fluid so it is a driver problem (because with tiger there's no problem!!)
    I have NO problem with my macbook.

  • Skype doesn't detect webcam windows 8

    Hello, 
    I recently bought an Asus S200-CT182H working with windows 8.
    Skype was already installed on windows 8. I just had to log in.
    I have no problems to receive the video from my contacts when I call them, but impossible to put my webcam. 
    When I go on "Camera" on windows 8, it works perfectly. 
    I also have to mention that when I try to put the webcam on skype, no other application is using the webcam.
    Please I am waiting for a solution, this is very annoying.
    Thanks in advance,
    Clara.

    Which version of Skype do you use?
    Run Skype >> WinKey + C >> Settings >> About.
    Please update to Version 1.8.0.111

    WinKey (the button is located between the left Ctrl and Alt with the Windows logo)
    type: ms-windows-store: and press Enter

  • Skype can't detect sound card, issue with playback...

    Hello
    I have just received my Razer kraken 7.1 headset and have installed razer synapse 2.0. I have set up my mic and speakers of the headset through the control panel, my playback is set as the razer kraken 7.1 earphone and the mic is set as the headset microphone through the recording tab. When I launch skype there is no sound produce through the application, however with previous headsets there has been, I have tried going on youtube to see if sound comes through the headset and it does. Previously I have been using a turtle beach z11 which used 3.5mm jacks in to the computer however this new headset is usb operated. When skype opens and I try to call someone it says problem with playback device meaning I can't call anyone at all. However when checking call quality it says everything is working fine even though it isn't.
    So far I have tried re-installing skype and restarting my pc none of this has worked so far, I know this isn't likely a fault with the headset as it works with all other programmes I have tried.
    I am using a custom built pc with
    OS: WIN7 64 BIT Home Premium
    GPU: AMD HD7950
    CPU: i5-3550
    RAM: 8gb 1333mhz
    Motherboard: Asus p67 series
    Sound card: Onboard 7.1 audio
    Any help with my problems would be much appreciated.
    -Thanks
    George Snell

    @gsnell, Please setup your audio device directly in Skype and not only in the windows playback/record interface.
    Also, please try to quit synapse 2.0 since it may interfere with Skype.
    Also please try with the latest 6.13 version 
    www.skype.com/en/download-skype/skype-for-windows/downloading/
    if nothing helps, Can you please provide logs as described in this link https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA12321/how-do-i-create-log-files under Skype for Windows Desktop and attach it to your post?
    Thank you

  • G400s after update Windows 8.1 the webcam can't detect

    Hello,recently i want use my webcam but I realize my webcam cannot use, it says can't detect my webcam!

    Please help

    hi Rayman94,
    Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
    Can you try the following:
      - Follow this guide on how to show hidden devices on the device manager. When done, look under Device Manager > Imaging Devices or Other Devices and see if you can now see the camera or an unknown device.
      - If you now see the Camera under Imaging Devices but is grayed out, try to right click on it > choose uninstall > delete the device driver then reboot the system. After the reboot, install the Camera Driver (AVC, Bison, Chicony, Lite-on) and observe.
      - If you still can't see the Camera under Imaging Devices but you see an Unknown Device,  follow this guide on how to identify it. Once identified, navigate to the C:\drivers\Camera Driver (AVC, Bison, Chicony, Lite-on)\HD folder and install the appropriate driver.
    - Link to picture
    Let me know how it goes.

  • FaceTime can't detect a camera (Mac Pro)

    I have just taken delivery of a new Mac Pro. I am running OSX 10.9.1. On my old iMac, facetime happily used the on board iSight camera for video, but now when I try to use my Philips webcan via USB (plugged directly into the Mac Pro, not via a USB hub), Facetime cannot detect a camera. Curiously Yahoo Messenger and Skype can, any ideas. I use Macam software to drive the webcam.
