T420i integrated webcam issue

Hello, I have a typical problem with my lenovo thinkpad T420i. I have my settings done properly and i have also tried uninstalling and installing the latest drivers but it webcam is not working properly. Can you please help me to fix it?

Hi Anand,
Thank you for the reply!
It is very sad to hear that your Web-camera is not working properly after updating the drivers. Please check if you are getting any LED indication when you switch on the camera, also check if there is any sticker is fixed on the camere or with any dust. If the issue still persists then this could be issue with hardware and I suggest you to contact customer support for further assistance.
Please click the below link to get the details of contact center, I am sure they will assist you further on the issue you are facing in your system.

  • DV2270US Webcam Issues

    I have a DV2270US, and I can't get the integrated webcam to work. I tried to uninstall it and that failed, so I attempted to do it manually by removing the program folder, removing registry keys, etc. Now everytime I try to run the installer, I get an error saying setup initialization has failed.
    Everyone keeps telling me to use CCleaner to uninstall it, but according to CCleaner, it doesn't even exist on my computer. So...what do I do?
    I've gone as far as ripping the installer itself apart and playing with things in the included programs, ini, and batch files, but to no avail.

    That's not an option, I don't *have* any restore points.
    I'd like to note that I"ve been having this problem for the last 3 months, and only began going crazy trying to fix it in the last week. I initially assumed it was due to all the work I was doing with codecs, but after returning to the original setup, I'm sure that's not the issue.
    If you mean using the system disc, also not an option. I never recieved a system disc, and I can't afford to purchase one.

  • X220 Integrated Webcam

    Hi all,
    I have weird issue with my Lenovo x220 integrated webcam.
    Previously my integrated webcam used to appear as a device under the Printers and Devices, and this also used to get presented through to a windows 7 VM which I run on the x220 tablet using VMware Workstation.
    Somewhere down the line (I am not sure exactly when) after numerous system updates etc, the integrated webcam stop appearing under Printers and Devices...and no longer gets passed through to the VM.
    The webcam itself works fine on the host and is visible under device manager and can be configured using Fn + F6.
    Not sure what made it stop working with vmware workstation, but any insite will be much appreciated.
    Cheers

    Hi, Maryd1621
    What exactly happens when you attempt to use the integrated camera? Which programs have you tried using the camera with? As for the driver, click here for the camera driver for Windows 7, Vista, and XP. If you are using Windows 8, there is not an updated driver on the website, but the default driver built in to the machine should work fine.
    Hope it helps,
    Adam

  • Satellite A200 - WebCam issue - webcam drives has failed

    Hi,
    I need some help regarding the integrated webcam of my Satellite A200.
    Everytime I start the laptop I keep receiving a message saying that the webcam drives has failed and I have to restart the computer, but the problem persists.
    I have downloaded an updated webcam driver, but nothing.
    Can anyone give me an idea of what is going on?
    Thanks!

    Ok - I've had the same problem:
    "Everytime I start the laptop I keep receiving a message saying that the webcam driver has failed to load and I have to restart the computer"
    Same when trying to update driver from Toshiba site, same when rolled back / uninstalled drivers, then re-installed default drivers. Nothing worked.
    Sorry - but the solution that worked for me wasn't easy.
    I had to disassemble the laptop to take a look - fix something else ( wireless on/off switch had broken / jammed in off position - lugs had snapped on back of the slider switch on the case, but no problems, I just left it in "on" position, as wireless can be switched off in software anyway). I decided as I'd got that far already, to pull the laptop completely apart and clean it out properly.
    There's a shielded cable running from the webcam in the lid, though to a small white socket on the motherboard, accessible under the keyboard, next to the wireless board.
    I was disconnecting various other cables etc, and came across this one disconnected, and couldn't remember disconnecting it myself. Hmmmm...
    Anyway, I connected it back up on reassembly, it pushes in to the socket and seems seated, but needs an extra little push to "snap" securely in place.
    My guess is that some of these haven't been seated properly ex-factory. They probably work just fine, until perhaps through repeated flex on the back of the keyboard when typing, or opening and closing the lid, the connector falls out of the socket.
    Anyway - my webcam works again now. (using Vista SPII and all current updates, but in my case that's not relevant, as it was NOT a software or driver issue).
    There's instructions (with pictures) for disassembling the A200 on the net - use google to find them. You don't need to pull it completely apart, just to the point where you can get the keyboard out, then you can access the connector.

  • The cable to my integrated webcam/mic broke

    I posted a problem about my integrated webcam/mic not working a few months ago. I was looking for the manul so i could take it apart and look at the cable to make sure it was pluged in.  I didn't have time to do this until today. When i did I found that one of the wires (the black one) that connect the webcam/mic were broken, I'm guessing this got broken when my fan was relpaced. I am wondering what this wire/connection is called and if it would be cheaper to buy a new one and install it or if I should just buy an external mic and webcam? The pictures of the wire and  the link to my original post is below:    http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Hardware/Hardware-problem-with-integrated-mic-and-webcam/td-p/5094095

  • Computer can't find my integrated Webcam on my T400...

    It's weird, sometimes my T400 finds my integrated webcam and sometimes it doesn't
    I use both MSN messenger and the Roxio Creator Business Edition when trying to find my webcam, and they both don't find it, or they both do....
    what could be causing this?

    Well...once again I found the answer myself...(is no one answering on these forums?)
    Again...(like my monitor issue)...it has to do with the USB mouse being plugged in during bootup...
    If I plug my mouse in after bootup my webcam is found just fine by other programs...
    Talk about a weird error...

  • 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.

  • Where can I find the integrated webcam for my HP G62t-350 Notebook PC?

    Just like the title asks, where can I find the integrated webcam for my HP G62t-350 Notebook PC? I have what looks like a rectangle in the top center of the screen/lid, in the bevel, but I'm not sure of how to get it to work, or if it's even able to work! I've seen pics of where there is a gray circle or dot in the middle of that rectangle, but I'm not able to see if I have one or not. Would someone please help me out here?

    Click on start button under all programs in search box type in web cam. List will show above if it is installed you will see it. Other wise you need to purchased a web cam. This is how I found excess to my web cam on HP dv7 6135dx.

  • Dell Integrated Webcam

    I have a Dell 1720 with an integrated webcam. It has been working great until today. My computer can't detect the camera and I have already tried reinstalling the drivers. The blue indicator light is also not coming on like it used to. Anyone have a suggestion?

    The problem the entire time for me wasn't the microdia-git module it was the fact that my user wasn't added to the video group. I also figured out that my webcam worked perfectly with the uvcvideo module and oddly enough not the microdia-git module. I apologize for the "n00bness" and appreciate the help.
