  • My Isight is not working on skype and yahoo messenger but works on photobooth and ichat

    My Isight is not working on skype and yahoo messenger but works on photobooth and ichat.
    Ive reset my SMC and PMU but it still does not work. Only black screen appears on skype with a loading sign that takes so long. The light signal on the cam doesnt turn on as well which indicates that it is really not working.

    Regarding Skype, post in the Mac Skype forums on Skype's website.  It's where all the Mac Skype users hang out.
    Regarding Yahoo, contact its customer tech support department.

    Hello everybody.
    I hope you can help me.
    My web cam doesn't work on skype. The camera itself works - I checked via Lenovo web conferencing.
    I attached txt with information from DirectX Diagnostic Tool.
    I really hope you can help me, Skype is great, all is running perfectly, except for the video...
    Thanks a lot in advance.

  • Webcam no longer working in Skype

    Hi All
    I have a Dell laptop with an integrated webcam and for some reason last Thursday the webcam no longer work in skype. It was working the day before. It still works in yahoo. When I try to make a video call or test it under options - video settings I get a black screen with that moving circle indicating that the video is loading but it never loads. The internet connection is very fast. Has anyone else seen this issue or know how to resolve it?
    Thank you in advance.
    Alan

    There are two main reasons why their are video incompatibilities in the newer releases.
    1.  The way video support was redesigned in 6.2 and above left some cameras incapable of supporting the new video mode in older style hardware.  For this reason the Skype special version (6.1.x) was made available.  This also resolves video incompatibility issues between very old releases (i.e. Skype for MAC OSX 2.8 and Skype Special Version for Windows allows video communication to occur between contacts vs. just audio)  
    https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA12252/why-can-t-i-make-video-calls-on-the-latest-version-of-skype...
    2.  Bugs/incompatibilities are sometimes introduced in the newer releases like the recently reported issues with Dell XPS model cameras.  In that instance, you would have to downgrade to 6.3 or below which does not have that flaw.
    Skype 6.3 (the previous release)
    http://download.skype.com/msi/SkypeSetup_6.3.0.105.msi
    So while it may be highly inconvenient, if you are aware of the above you should be able resolve any video-related issue.  I for one have been fortunate as none of my laptop webcams including the one on my Dell has failed to work in any Skype for Windows release.

  • My webcam is not working on skype or facetime, it says cannot find.

    Can someone help me figure out why my webcam is not working or able to be discovered when im using skype or facetime or at all since i downloaded Lion?

    I'm never really a nick-picker about internet writing, but I couldn't even understand what you said until the third time I read it through.
    Anyways, back to the subject. It may be because a lot of those websites are designed for Windows computers, and do not accept the Mac OS, just like how certain MSN Messengers designed for Apple cannot communicate with Windows computers through webcam, but can with other Apple computers.

  • My built in webcam has stopped working on Skype following an update. Does this mean my macbook air has blocked videochat on skype? How can I fix this problem?

    FIX:  
    1. You need Time Machine
    2. Go to folder /Library/CoreMediaIO/Plug-Ins/DAL/
    3. Copy AppleCamera.plugin to good place (usb memory stick is the best place).
    4. Go to Time machine in date that skype work fine.
    5. Change AppleCamera.plugin with file from Time Machine
    6. Restart system, Now skype need to work with camera.
    If that doesnt pass,

  • How to use documentbeforesaved method? And why my code doesn't work in template files?

    Can someone help me with these two codes?
    ----Beginning of code 1-------------
    Private WithEvents App As Word.Application
    Private Sub Document_Open()
    Set App = Word.Application
    End Sub
    Private Sub App_DocumentBeforeSave(ByVal Doc As Document, SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
    MsgBox("BeforeSave")
    End Sub
    --------------End of the code----------------
    Beginning of code 2--------------- Code 2 is from https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff838299(v=office.15).aspx
    Public WithEvents appWord as Word.Application 
    Private Sub appWord_DocumentBeforeSave _ 
     (ByVal Doc As Document, _ 
     SaveAsUI As Boolean, _ 
     Cancel As Boolean) 
     Dim intResponse As Integer 
    Private Sub App_DocumentBeforeSave(ByVal Doc As Document, SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
    MsgBox("BeforeSave")
    End Sub
    In the first code, they have:
    Private Sub Document_Open()
    Set App = Word.Application
    End Sub
     I test these two codes in "This document" object, and I find out the first code works but the second code are not!
    Why second code doesn't work?
    Extra question: I am using microsoft 2013. I insert this code into a macro-enabled template. But when I am about to save my file I am expecting these code works. However, they didn't work!
    Thank you for solving these problem for me!

    Hello,
    Please note that the code snippet 2 in your post is different from the code snippet in the MSDN document. Also please read the comments of the MSDN code sample:
    This example prompts the user for a   yes or no response before saving any document.
    This code must be placed in a   class module, and an instance of the class must be correctly initialized to   see this example work; see
    Using Events with the Application Object for   directions on how to accomplish this.
    Public WithEvents appWord   as Word.Application
    Private Sub   appWord_DocumentBeforeSave _
     (ByVal Doc As Document, _
     SaveAsUI As Boolean, _
     Cancel As Boolean)
     Dim intResponse As Integer
     intResponse = MsgBox("Do you really   want to " _
     & "save the document?", _
     vbYesNo)
     If intResponse = vbNo Then Cancel = True
    End Sub
    So the problem in your code snippet 2 is that you didn't put it into a class module and initialize the class module. If you just put it into ThisDocument, you have to initialize the word application object.

  • 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.

    Open the Library folder and scroll down to Preferences.
    In that folder, there is a file called com.skype.skype.plist. Trash that file.

  • My FaceTime Camera of my MacBook Air doesn't work in Skype.

    My FaceTime Camera of my MacBook Air doesn't work in Skype. I try to make a videocall but my camera doesn't work.

    Be sure to check PHOTOBOOTH and FACETIME in more than one user account.  However, don't use the "Guest" account for testing.  If your Mac only has one account, create a new user account for testing.
    • If Apple's http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
       suggestions do not help you, (the "reset" suggested there
       often restores normal function,) continue with the following.
    • Use your Mac's Disk Utility to repair permissions and then
       download and apply the latest Combo Update, for your Mac OS,
       the current one is at: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1484
    • Repair permissions again immediately following the system restart
       that completes the Combo update.
    Properly applying the Combo version of updates can sometimes correct software problems, but, if your trouble is caused by a hardware problem, there are no user serviceable parts of iSight.  For hardware help, contact an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service.
    The same Troubleshooting help for built-in iSight works for FaceTime (and FaceTime HD) cameras, too.
    If your camera works with Apple apps in every user account you test, search or post for help in Skype's dedicated forum.  The Skype users who post there may have already know the solution for your particular problem.

    If it worked for you using iOS 6, then it appears iOS 7 has made some changes.  Was it working before?
