Unable to get Live Cam Video IM pro to work with MS Messenger

I have installed Live Cam IM Pro and all software from CD, plus updates. It works if I try Cam Manager ... I see myself in preview window.Looking in Start - settings - control panel - scanners & camera there is only one entry, the Live Cam pro. I cannot get it to work with Windows Live Messenger .... if I initiate a video call, it rings but when far end answers ... I get video window with ... video loading message, but it fails and I just get a standard XP icon. If I go to Messenger .. tools ..audio & video the camera sparks into life and again I see myself in preview.But when I go to tools .. webcam settings I see the error message :Cannot change camera settings because your camera is not plugged in or you are using it in a video conversation or with another programIt is obviously plugged in, and there are no other programmes running. I have tried deinstall & reinstall ... no difference. I have removed CD extras .. so now just have Cam Manager & Video driver ... but still no joy.Anybody know how to fix this ?

Live CAM Video IM Pro - Blue Screen (KS.SYS)

Just purchased Live CAM Video IM Pro first creative product.
My System: WinXP SP2, GB, Over 8 GB system space free.
Installation went fine (no errors) post install requested reboot .. rebooted system. Blue Screen with KS.SYS.
Uninstalled all software. re-installed with bare minimum. Troubleshooted the system multiple times. Finally got the culprit (Live Cam Video IM Pro driver).
Without driver system works fine with drivers Blue Screen. Tried backup copy of KS.sys no success (seems KS.sys is dinged!)
Result: The cam is useless.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

no one can help me? plz thx

32 bit live cam video im pro vista dri

I just purchased a li've cam video im pro and downloaded the vista 32 bit driver. I ran the setup and the files appear to be in the correct directory, but the "driver set-up" progress window stalls at 90%. I thought the installation might need the camera, so I plugged it in, but alas, to no avail. I've tried to install the camera 4 different times, but each time it goes all the way through the process and then freezes at 90%. I've doubled checked and I'm running a new install of Vista 32 bit on a ?new gateway computer. Anybody got any ideas?Pete

It took alot of messing around as I am a new user to vista after upgrading from xp, I hope this helps you to sort out your problem good luck

Live! Cam Video IM Pro (VF0410) HELP!!!!

i bought this webcam today - Live! Cam Video IM Pro (VF0410) - but i can't get it to show in black and white.
Anybody who can help getting my webcam black and white?
thank you!

I too have the same problem. It seems to be a flaw with the software or the hardware. If you disable the auto exposure setting the frame rate will still site at 4-5 fps.
If you then move the exposure slider to the far left and then back to the right the frame rate will immediatley increase to 20-30 fps, but the exposure is quite poor even with the adjustment of brightness, contrast, etc. Is this a software bug or a hardware flaw?

Why can't I get live streaming video to play

Why can't I get live streaming video to play in Safari?

Sorry, but that is old info. On my 21" iMac, I'm running 10.7.1 and the version of Safari is 5.1. On my 24" iMac, I'm running 10.6.8 and Safari 5.1. I have even tried to get it to run in Firefox and still no results. I've been able to do live streaming previously, but today I'm hitting a road block. Could there be a setting or preference that I do not have set properly?

How do I get my new 27" Thunderbolt Display to work with my mid-2010 Macbook Pro?

How do I get my new 27" Thunderbolt Display to work with my mid-2010 Macbook Pro? Or am I SOL?
Hardware Overview:
Model Name:    MacBook Pro
Model Identifier:    MacBookPro6,1
Processor Name:    Intel Core i7
Processor Speed:    2.8 GHz
Number of Processors:    1
Total Number of Cores:    2
L2 Cache (per Core):    256 KB
L3 Cache:    4 MB

Processor Interconnect Speed:    4.8 GT/s
Boot ROM Version:    MBP61.0057.B0F
SMC Version (system):    1.57f18

You can't. Theoretically, Thunderbolt devices that only transfer video and audio should work with Mini DisplayPort MacBooks like yours, but it's not the case of the Thunderbolt Display. Its firmware doesn't allow it to be used with non-Thunderbolt Macs, so you can't use the Thunderbolt Display with the Mid 2010 MacBook Pro.
Instead, you have to look for another screen, or you can get an adapter and connect the MacBook Pro to a TV

I recently bought a new macbook pro and set it up using the migration assistant and my mac mini. I can't get the text message forwarding feature to work with both computers.

I recently bought a new macbook pro and set it up using the migration assistant from my mac mini. I can't get the text message forwarding feature to work with both computers. It keeps saying that I only have 2 devices setup, my iPad and my macbook pro. When I mess with the setting on my mac mini, it goes from saying that that is one of the devices to my macbook pro being the 2nd device. I think that something happened as a result of my using the migration assistant and now it thinks that my macbook pro and my mac mini are one and the same computer. Any ideas?

Thanks, Sig.
The old computer is a 2.6 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
The new one is a 2.3 GHz intel core i7
In going over this, thanks to "tallking it out" with you, I did discover the Text Edit problem. Because I've still been unable to get the new computer text size (fonts or whatever) to match the old computer, I did not notice that the curser is now different--the line midway down the curser has to be placed on the line I am working upon, otherwise the edits go elsewhere on the page. Now, with a bit of difficulty, I am able to get Text Edit to work correctly.
If you have any ideas as to why my menu bar and Text Edit type are still so slow, I'd love to have them.
(I went through the process you suggested earlier, re my Trackpad preferences, and found no improvement.)

Can't get web cam to work with Yahoo messenger

I can't get my web cam to work with my Yahoo messenger but it opens up with the Cam assistant thats all it will do.
Can someone help me with this problem and get it working with Yahoo messenger?

Hello
Before you start MSN disable Camera Assistant Software. When MSN starts try please to check cam functionality under Audio and Video Setup. On step 3 you will have Webcam Setup.
Please select there Chicony USB 2.0 Camera.
The camera should start and in test window you should have picture.
Can you use it now?

I can't play MPEG4.avi, or any other, video - all I get is "The video player has stopped working. Please relaunch". Please tell me what to do.

I took the video in 2009. I can't remember the camera model I took it with and the other information you request does not show up in the "i" panel in iPhoto.
My version of iPhoto 11 is 9.2.3.
