Webcam Live and Yahoo messanger

How do i get this to work. Creative said it has to do with yahoo and i emailed yahoo and never got a response. I am pretty sure i installed it properly, or at least that's what my comp said when it finished installing. Can you guys help me out, thanks for any replies!
This is what it is doing:
When the other party wants to view my webcam it only shows a black screen, but yahoo messanger says that they are viewing the webcam when they are actually not.

Evidently Yahoo knows about the problem. Go to this site. http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/messen.../webcam-5.html

Windows live and yahoo messengers not working

Hi,
I have a blackberry 8520 using V5 OS and downloaded the latest service books as well as the latest version of windows live and yahoo messengers. The problem is i try to log onto either of them and its justs tries to login with no success, i am on a pay as you go tarfiff with access to wifi. Anybody got any ideas how i can fix this problem. many thanks in advance.

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
With a strong carrier network signal (e.g., not merely WiFi), I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
1) Register HRT
KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
Please wait for one "registration" message to arrive to your Messages app
2) Resend Service Books (pre-BB10 devices only)
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
Please wait for "Activation" Messages, one per already configured email account, to arrive in your Messages. If you have no already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.
3) Reboot
With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes.
See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should contact your mobile service provider for formal support...and to find out if, via the plan you are paying for, you even should be expecting these services to function. Many services will not function without an adequate data plan, even via WiFi...but only your carrier can tell you exactly what services you can expect to work with your plan.
Good luck!

How do I get my webcam working on my skype and yahoo messenger, even though it is working well on photo booth?

How do i get my webcam working on my skype and yahoo messenger, even though my cam is working on photo booth ( and i am tlking of the mbp with latest OX).

you need to go into the preferences of the actual programs and make the proper settings...
Such as in Yahoo, go to preferences, Webcam tab, sub tab Video and make sure you have the proper camera selected in the drop down menu of video source. In your case built-in isight camera.

Windows live mail and yahoo and iphone 4s

I have a business account with a yahoo.mail address. I rarely access this account through google etc so the most up to date contacts folders and emails are all accessed on my laptop through windows live mail. I just go an iphone 4s and naturally when I set up my yahoo account it has gone in to the yahoo account and downloades 5000 emails from the past few years!!! I deleted the whole thing off my phone and then went in to my yahoo account and deleted all the emails but how do I transfer all my current information from windows live mail/yahoo account onto my phone and/or my yahoo account on the yahoo website.

Google is a search engine, so I think you mean checking your Yahoo account via webmail access using a browser.
Since a Windows Live Mail account is completely seperate from a Yahoo account, I'm not sure how you are accessing your Yahoo account with your Live Mail account. If Live Mail includes an option to link with your Yahoo account, deselect it.
You can access your Yahoo account as an IMAP account with the iPhone's Mail app. When creating the account, select the Yahoo account preset and follow the prompts. The account will be created as a Yahoo account when using the Yahoo account preset. This provides push access for received messages, and over the air syncing for your Yahoo online contacts, calendar events, reminders, and notes.
A Live Mail account can be accessed as an Exchange account with the iPhone's Mail app, which provides push access for received messages, and over the air syncing for your Live Mail online contacts and calendar events. You should be able to get instructions for doing so via Microsoft's Live Mail website - the help area, or do a Google search for accessing a Live Mail account as an Exchange account with the iPhone.

Windows 7, WebCam Live! Ultra, and Gray options

I used this camera on Windows XP and it worked fine. But recently I switched to Windows 7. There doesn't seem to be any driver for this webcam on Windows 7. I tried the beta driver for Vista and it seems to work. (green light on the camera and visible video on Webcam Center program). However, now that I'm on Windows 7, I can't seem to change any settings. They are all grayed out. These settings are causing lag to my video like frame skips. How can I fix this gray option issue?
TL;DR -> Worked on xp, switched to windows 7, options are grayed. no windows 7 drivers for WebCam Live! Ultra.

Webcam Live! PRO drivers (help me choose..)

Hello,
I see 2 drop-down entries for the camera source settings in Yahoo Messenger.
1 is Creative Webcam Live! Pro
2 is Creative Webcam Live! Pro (VFW)
Which is the better one?
Appreciate ur response.
thanks

I found a fix that worked for me and I hope it works for anyone else experiencing the same issue. I had to Manually delete the UpperFilters and LowerFilters registry values.
To Manually delete the UpperFilters and LowerFilters registry values, follow these steps:
1. Start Registry Editor (Regedit.exe).
START > RUN > (Type) REGEDIT (and hit ENTER)
2. Locate the UpperFilters and LowerFilters value under the following key in the registry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{6BDDFC6-80F-D0-BEC7-08002BE2092F}
3. On the Edit menu, click Delete, and then click OK.
NEXT: I went to my Device Manager in Windows XP > IMAGING DEVICES > CREATIVE WEBCAM LIVE! ULTRA then right mouseclicked and chose DISABLE. I Then Right mouse clicked again and chose ENABLE. Then Wallah! My webcam led cam on and the darn thing started working again.
HOW I DISCOVERED WHAT TO DOI came across a link to a similar problem regarding a CD-Rom Driver install issue returning Error Code 9. This was the same error code that I recieved when trying to re-install my webcam drivers. So I poked around the registry near a similar path (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contr ol\Class\) as mentioned in the article found at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/34060/EN-US/ until I ran across an entry that said Imaging Devices in it.

WebCam Live Usage

Hi all,
I bought my webcam live so that I could see and talk with my grandchild and daughter in New York.
So, I am a novive at this type thing. I have installed mine and my daughter will install hers. Now, what is next? How do we see and talk to each other simultaneously? Or is that possible? Help - how do we get started? Thanks. Suz

Thanks alot Jason. I'm pretty sure I have MSN messenger. This is probably a stupid question too, but we both have xp applications but do we both need to have the same messenger application? I know my daughter has Yahoo and I don't - do we need to be the same?
Thanks again. Suzanne

Webcam Live Pro! Computer crashing driver problem

I have had the Webcam Live Pro! for a few months running on a Windows XP Home Emachines with a .8 ghz AMD processor. The driver that comes with the CD out of the box has a conflict that causes the entire computer to shut down and reboot (or sometimes to freeze) when using third-party software, such as an instant messenger. I originally called the Creative Techs about this, and they told me that there was no problem with the driver. But a month later, a new driver was posted on their web site that claimed to fix this exact problem. I uninstalled the old driver and installed the new driver. But the problem came back even with the new driver. The only handle I can get on it is that the problem tends to re-appear after using the camera for a number of days. That is, the shutdown/freeze problem goes away when I uninstall the driver and then re-install the driver. But then a few days of use (one hour a day, typically) causes the problem to reappear. Then the problem re-occurs every few minutes until I uninstall the driver and re-install the driver. After that I can use the camera for a few hours before the crash problem returns.
I am using this camera on a machine that I use for nothing more than video conferencing. No games or junk. I do not even do word processing on this computer. The computer crashes only when using the Creative Webcam Live Pro! I wish they would really fix this driver. I would pay double for this camera if it worked well. As it is now, I am researching other cameras.

If your windows XP machine reboots?while using Capture or when you are using Skype video calling of Yahoo video calling, try using a USB port that plugs directly into you mother board. Also make sure it is a USB2 port and not a USB port. I had the camera plugged into a USB card that I added to my computer and it caused it to reboot after using the camera for a short time. If the problem persists, remove the program and reinstall making sure the camera is not connected to your computer until the software tells you to hook it up.

Installing Webcam Live! on Windows Vista x64

This will inform all of the poor consumers who bought a camera shortly before vista was released, only to realize that the camera would not work with thier operating system that they would soon update too. I was very frustrated trying to get my "Webcam Live!" to work with windows vista ultimate 64 bit edition so i did some trial and error, trying basically every driver on the site.
step 1: be sure that your camera is unplugged, and you dont have any remnants of other drivers on your system, and download the driver for Windows XP Professional 64 bit located here?http://us.creative.com/support/downl...type=0&x=9&y=7
Step 2: right click the setup?icon and click properties
Step 3: click the "compatibility" tab click "run this program in compatibility mode for:" and select Windows XP (Service pack 2)
Step 4: right click the setup icon and choose "run this program as administrator" proceed with setup. The setup may get hung up, but as long as it gets to 100% before freezing you should still be okay.
Step 5: Plug your camera in?Step6: Open your device driver. In my case the driver installed correctly and that was the last step. you may have to manually install the driver by clicking on the device, clicking update driver, and then point the computer to where it was installed to. this was very frustrating for me to figure out and took me about 2 hours. i hope i saved you some time, good luck.

Webcam Live Pro causes system crash with Windows XP Home

Ever since installing Webcam Live Pro I have been having random system restarts. This ONLY happens when the webcam is being used. It happens when using the Creative Webcam Center or another application. Sometimes the restart will happen after a few minutes, and other times an hour or more. I am running Windows XP sp2 with all patches, and there are no driver conflicts listed in Device Manager. I have the cam set at 60 hz.
Even though there are no listed driver conflicts in Device Manager, there clearly is a driver conflict that occurs from time to time. I have read of other people having this same problem on this forum with Webcam Live Pro. I am using the driver ...0 which is dated 0//2004, and the automatic update program on this web site says that I am using the latest driver. But in the download section of this web site, the latest driver is listed as .0.0.0 and dated November 9, 2004. The driver numbers or dates do not match, and the driver on the web seems to have an earlier number but a later date!?
Does anyone (especially a Creative tech support person who may be reading this post) have any idea what to do? The driver version is one issue. But the big issue is the system crashes.
Best,
CB

Solution! I discovered the problem causing the system crash, and I think it is sufficiently interesting to note here so that others may benefit from what I discovered. First, there is no fundamental problem/conflict with the driver for Webcam Live Pro. The trouble in my instance is that I was running another program that utilized the web cam, and that program conflicted with the Webcam Live Pro program that was constantly running in the system tray. Basically, the program in the system tray is loaded with the set-up for Webcam Live Pro. It constantly monitors the computer system to see if the cam is connected to the computer. When it does this while another program is using the cam, the conflict occurs, causing the entire computer to reboot. The solution is to right mouse click the icon for Webcam Live Pro in the system tray, go to settings, and to remove the check that allows the program to check for the presence of the web cam. Just to be safe, I then also exited the Webcam Live Pro program from the system tray so that nothing from that program could interfere with my use of the webcam using another program.
The result is that the webcam is rock solid, with no system crashes. I have been running it nonstop for hours without a problem.
I hope this helps someone else.
Best,
CB
