Toshiba Web Camera Application

HI,
A while ago on my computer the web camera application stopped working after it had previously been for a couple weeks before hand. Whenever I clicked on it my screen would go black and then come back and nothing would happen. Now I am trying to fix the problem,I just tried uninstalling it from my computer which I did and now when I click on it it tells me that windows is searching for it and I can browse for it myself if I want. I then tried reinstalling it from the support area of Toshiba.com and after I had downloaded it nothing happened, I clicked run and then that was it the program never popped up on my desktop. I was wondering if maybe I downloaded it wrong or if any one else has any ideas on how to fix this problem it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

What model number is your computer? It should be on a label on the bottom.

Portege R835-P56X web cam application stuck on screen

So hi peeps, Ive had my Portege for almost 3 years, and this problem just started in the last month or so. The application menu that is hidden off screen and slides out when you put your mouse there is stuck on screen, will not go away, and remains on top when other programs are running. Its extremely annoying! There's no error message or anything. Has anyone else encountered this problem? And if so, how do you fix it?
TIA!!

Hi
Whenever I try to go to web camera application it causes an IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL error. This started when I the battery drained out while doing the facial recognition login process in Vista. The web cam can be used fine, however when I try to use the program it causes the Blue Screen. I tried reinstalling the software to no avail.

Web camera application doesn't auto hide on my Satellite A660

Hi
Just getting started with my Satellite A660. The Web Camera Application doesn't want to autohide at the edges of the screen.
The only way I can get it off the screen is to close it. Can anyone suggest a solution to make it autohide?
thanks,
Simon.

>.... all you have to do is move the app to either side of the screen and it'll hide itself.
> I don't know why someone wouldn't go on to explain after pointing out the obvious solution as clicking on "Auto Hide."
As far as I know, by default, preinstalled application and small menu are already on the side (left) and with enabled Auto Hide so the question is why this doesnt work.
Has used moved the menu in the middle on the screen or what?

Re: Satellite A660 - Toshiba Utilities - Web Camera Application missing

I have a new Satellite A660 with inbuiilt web camera, but there is no Toshiba software (as stated in the Manual) to run the web camera, nor the face recognition software.
I havent checked anything else yet but not in Programs directory and nowhere on the Start menu.
Any help as to where to find the software ?

I agree with Paolo30, if the webcam is available on this notebook, then an right software should be installed as well. Go to the Toshiba driver page and check for your model:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp
[Australian Toshiba Driver Page|http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support]
However, on my laptop I haven't installed any Toshiba webcam utility myself, Windows made it by default. And it runs..... Maybe, it will work better with original Toshiba driver but I don't use webcam at all.

Web camera application settings not changing

My webcam settings stopped working. I have Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit, Satellite C55-A5310. It worked fine and a few days ago the settings stopped working. I click mirror or flip and none of them work. The settings for colors don't work as well. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling. How do I fix this and what is the link for checking the drivers for it?

If your computer is less than a year old I'd suggest contacting Toshiba Support as it is still under warranty.
You say you restored your computer. Did you restore it to out-of-box state, or use a restore point?
I agree with you in that cannot locate the web cam driver on your support site. Again, I'd contact Toshiba support and ask them where the driver/app is for your camera.

Satellite L505D-GS6000
Perhaps you mean you have the Satellite L505D-GS6000? Let's try a reinstall of the main base drivers, then the webcam driver/app, one more time. Download and install these drivers in this order:
AMD/ATI Display Driver for Windows 7 (32/64) v8.634.1
Realtek Audio Driver for Windows 7 (32/64)(v6.0.1.5904)
Toshiba Web Camera Application for Windows XP/7 (32/64)(v1.1.1.6)
Then try the webcam again. Please let us know if it works, or if you get any error messages trying the above reinstalls. Good luck
Mike

Satellite S70-A-11H web camera image quality is not good

Hi,
Running windows 8.1 which came with the laptop.
New out of the box.
As per title.
I find the image quality of the camera image to be very grainy, poor color etc.
When I start the web camera using the search bar on the right, it starts using the Microsoft application, when you scroll down to settings all that is available under settings/options is Photo aspect ratio, Grid lines, Location info.
I have been in touch with Toshiba Tech support who advised to do a Laptop refresh, which I did.
This made no difference.
After which they asked me to find the Toshiba web camera application on the laptop, this should have been in the Program Files folder in the Toshiba folder.
This application does not exist on my laptop.
The tech checked the same model laptop that he had available, which I was told when he selected the web camera, it opened using the Toshiba Web camera application, not Microsoft.
I have looked at other Toshiba laptops with web cameras, and found the image quality to be better. Unable to get to settings as these laptops were on display and in demo mode, hence locked down to some extent.
I can't believe that a web camera in this day and age for this value of laptop to have such poor image quality. My digital camera from 10year ago has better image quality.
I have checked through the laptop, and I do not have this application installed.
I have checked for updated drivers and software for my laptop, and cannot find this application to be applicable for my laptop. Drivers etc appear to be up to date.
I would like to know, do other users of this S series have any issue of camera image quality.
When the camera is selected what application is being used, Toshiba or Microsoft.
Is Toshiba web camera application applicable to Windows 8.1, as I cannot see it listed for 8.1
Does this sound like a hardware fault or a application/software issue.
Any direction or help on this matter would be appreciated, as I am getting to the point of returning this laptop for a refund.
Thanks in advance.
D.
Yes, I have tried using the FORCE!

> The tech checked the same model laptop that he had available, which I was told when he selected the web camera, it opened using the Toshiba Web camera application, not Microsoft.
The Toshiba webcam application is available for Win 7 system but the Win 8 and Windows 8.1 system use the own Microsoft webcam application.
> I have looked at other Toshiba laptops with web cameras, and found the image quality to be better.
Different Toshiba notebooks are equipped with different webcams.
Satellite S70-A-11H was equipped with a *0.92 mega pixel webcam*
A Satellite A660 for example was equipped with an _1.3M mega pixel webcam_
So there is a difference in webcam resolution

Web camera problems on new NB505-N500BL DR3

Hello,
I just got a new NB505 netbook for my wife. I checked the web camera application not long after powering it on, and it seemed to work fine. I installed a few things (like Skype, my printer drivers, Windows updates, etc.), and then I started to notice intermittent USB driver load failures, and the camera will not work.
When I run the Toshiba Web Camera Application, I get an error dialog saying that camera initialization failed. When I run Skype, it just fails to find the web camera altogether.
In Device Manager, I see one unknown USB device, and I'm not able to update its driver.
Again, this only happens sometimes (though most of the time), but I've not been able to figure out what I may have done differently the few times the camera actually works.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Ben

I have the same problem, but since the first time I use my lap.
It's brand new, but it's a problem to go to the place to ask for a replacement and I have noticed in google there is a lot of people with the same problem
I tried downloading the drivers but nothing works, there's a window saying the cam can't iniciate.
Please, help me. I'm from Mexico and ther is not phone help available in my country
I'm really upset with my thosiba

I just bought the Sattellite L505-Es5015 system unit a couple of weeks ago. Being overseas, it has taken me a couple of weeks to set-up and install everything on the computer. Up until I installed the bios upgrade from Toshiba, the webcam worked fine. Now, it will only broadcast a picture of a tree. Not sure what that is from, but what gives? I got this update notification through the built-in toshiba bulletin board, and now I can't revert to the older bios. I have windows 7 x64. I need a solution.
The image you see of the tree is probably due to the "screen cover" being activated. It is set in the Start --> All Programs --> Toshiba -->Toshiba Camera Application --> Effects --> Screen Cover tab. Ensure the Screen Cover option is set to Off (via the radio button).
The web cam launch program on my L505 series laptop is located under the Start --> All Programs --> Toshiba --> Web Camera Application. If the program doesn't run properly try downloading the latest version for your laptop on the Toshiba download site. Note: on my L505 this application also was initially installed on the left side of the menu (thin gray bar) and would hide itself until I moused over it with the mouse cursor.

Web Cam NB205 325BN

I installed both Skype and Windows Live Messenger. I ran the audio and video tests on both and the audio was fine on both programs. Theproblem is the Video. All I have is a Blue Screen with bubbles on it. When I clicked on the video test the small blue light did wotk but no video.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Sounds like you somehow have activated the web camera Effects - Screen Cover image option. Open the Toshiba Web Camera Application, then select Effect, then select the Screen Cover tab, and then select the Off option, and then click OK to save the setting change. Once done, The blue bubble image that is shown in the live web cam video window should go away and you should now have live web cam video. If you get a picture frame around the live video then check the Picture Frame tab and ensure it's set to Off.

The Toshiba downloads for that model are here, Brittney.
This is the correct driver/application for your webcam.

Portege R705-P35 Web Cam failed to initialize

My Web camera fails to initialize.
(This used to work, but stopped suddenly.) Every time I start my computer, I get the message, "Web camera initialization failed. Please check your camera device and restart application or computer."

I don't see the web camera listed in my Device Manager, either.
Any suggestions as to how I can fix this is greatly appreciated. I do have my Recovery disks, but I don't know how to reinstall my web cam from them.

Reinstall the Toshiba Web Camera Application found HERE.
