• Chicony webcam on Satellite Pro P200 1.3 does not work properly

  This built-in Chicony webcam is slowly driving me insane.

  Sometimes it works (not since last week though). Usually, I get a message saying it is locked by another application - or it does not exist. Now, I can not even friends view webcams.

  The cam is displayed on my screen and seems perfect, but no one can see me! When I try to view the cam of friends, I am told that it is not connected.

  Now, I checked my device manager and it is not yet installed-just disappeared! I have recommended download driver Toshiba Europe (camsoft-2007081...), uncompressed, ran it, restarted, but apparently my laptop does not detect the webcam - even if a blue light flashes!

  Please get out me of my misery... someone!

  Thank you, thank you, gratias, go raibh mile, etc., etc.

  I read that sometimes the internal TV tuner would block the internal webcam and so this error message.
  But as far as I know this laptop was not equipped the internal TV tuner, and therefore, this possibility is not relevant.

  Always is it that any application locks the webcam software. In case you would you recommend to go the msconfig and disable first the webcam services that run in the background. Then turn it back on.

  In most cases, this helps!
  By the way; I noticed this problem only with yahoo messenger and ms. Skype works ok!

• Chicony webcam

  Hello
  I recently bought a m600 portege... and the webcam does not appear in my computer as it should...
  It DOES not work with Skype, and so im guessing it will work with msn, however, I can't get the camera to work separately from any of these video chat programs.
  I would like to be able to take photos and video with the webcam and I search through the forums and that you HAVE read about the MS. fix... but all the files on the page come as non-applicable? is it because I'm looking for the ar in the wrong place, either because it is not really applicable on my computer?
  Is there another way to make the webcam work?
  Please answer as soon as possible!

  Thank you!
  Betty

  I found this in another thread:

  Download the updated Chicony Webcam driver on Toshiba website: ChiconyWebcam Driver v1.7.175.0123
  Install Vista Service Pack 1 or the 934374 patch: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/934374
  Update MSN/Yahoo Messenger

  Note that you can only use a single application with the webcam at the same time. So if Skype is open or running in the background, it may contain the open webcam. Completely close the system tray Skype and try again.

• Chicony Webcam does not not on Satellite A350d Pro-202

  Specification of the system:

  Satellite a350d-202 Pro
  Windows 7 64 bit

  I don't know if this is related but since I updated my laptop to Windows 7 my Chicony Webcam has stopped working. I tried all of the following conditions:
  Complete refurbishment of my system from scratch.
  + Failed +.

  Safe installation Mode drivier
  + For some reason, it doesn't let me connect through safe mode. I get to the windows login screen and it restarts automatically after a few seconds. No explanation? Yet once again, rebuilt PC a few times. +

  No webcam feature in Control Panel and of printers or of equipment devices.
  + Does not manually install drivers such as recommended. I do not see the webcam being recognized.

  Half of closing the lid of the portable computer to hear it recognizing the camera or the new device.
  + Without success. This does not happen.

  Essentially, I want to know if it is a problem of compatibility of Windows 7 or a technical fault to Toshiba.

  Anyway something OFFICIAL from Toshiba would be key here I was using the webcam for Web conferencing vital for work and now I can't.

  Please provide any option or anything else I can try.

  Suggestions of a value deeply. Including links, or other items, I may have missed

  Desperate to see a solution.

  Concerning

  Danny

  > No webcam feature in Control Panel and of printers or of equipment devices.
  Manual install as recommended drivers does not work. I am not recognised webcam

  The Chicony webcam must be listed in the device under the devices of Imagine option Manager. You should see entry USB video device.
  Who do you see?
  If so, this delete in Device Manager and reboot the device.

  Usually the Windows 7 should automatically recognize the cam and refresh the driver.
  Is this the case?

• Chicony webcame is not working on the Satellite A350-12j and Win 7 64 bit

  Hello

  The chicony webcam does not work on my toshiba Satellite A350-12j and windows 7 64 bit...

  I always get different errors as
  "graphics make it fail."
  "the device is locked by another program.
  etc...

  I tried many things and watch them on a lot of messages, but nothing does. I installed a lot of drivers and programs to solve, but nothing works.
  at first the camera was ok but now nothing seems to help and the camera is broken...

  Can you help me??

  Thank you!

  > seen as 1 million messages like mine and not even 1 right answer on how to solve it!
  I guess you didn't read all these messages correctly

  The user Symbian wrote that her webcam works fine! He used the software/driver for the Toshiba page as well

  Since the Skype reports an unknown error too, I guess that this whole thing has noting to do with the webcam software, but with your Windows 7 installed!

  Seems a registry keys, files or all what it might be, are confused upward!
  In your case, I would try a new installation! Install Win 7 and the Toshiba drivers/software.
  Then test the webcam.

  Don t install any 3rd party software before you would test the webcam!

  * Update your e-mail software (MSN/Yahoo Messenger, etc...)
  * If you have another program that can use the webcam (e.g. Skype), make sure that they are completely closed and not, sitting in the system tray.
  * Try to close the bar Assistant camera on the left side of the office.
  * To stop the Camera Assistant software from running at startup, run Regedit and delete HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run "Camera Assistant Software".

• Satellite A200 - Chicony Webcam - resuscitation

  I have a Satellite A200 age of four years with a Chicony Webcam who died a year ago.

  I had a few unsuccessful attempts at resuscitation, including running the tool of diagnosis of Toshiba (doesn't seem to cover the web - cam) and the process of "repair" available through the 'Control Panel', ' Uninstall/Change/repair.
  Whenever I try the cam, I get a message error "Please turn the camera.

  I hope someone out there can tell me how this seemingly simple task!

  Thank you

  I put t understand you.
  You wrote this webcam is dead.

  What do you mean exactly?
  Is defective or you cannot use due to missing driver?

  What is webcam listed in the device as unknown device manager?

• Satellite A200-J01: problems with Chicony webcam with Yahoo messenger and MSN

  Dear friends

  I just bought a Satellite A200-J01 with Windows Vista Edition Home Premium pre-installed on it. My problem is when I want to use my webcam (Chicony USB built-in 2.00) to have a video call with MSN and Yahoo messenger Internet, suddenly, it stops working and it shows a message that the webcam is not connected and no webcam was found on your computer.

  And then when I log out Yahoo messenger, come out of her and run Camera Assistant Software it shows this message "Locked by another application" Although there is no other applications running.

  The problem remains, unless I restart the computer. I read all the topics and messages as in my case in this site, but none of them helped me. I want to know if someone has encountered this problem, if this chicony webcam is compatible with yahoo and msn messenger and finally what I can do about it.

  Hello

  What about software chicory and the driver update?
  Please check if the software most recent is available and has been released. If so, remove it the old an and after reboot the new install the most recent version of this software chicony.

  It seems that similar problems appear on laptops from different manufacturers that use the Chicony webcam.
  Everything looks like the chicony Vista software is not 100% compatible with MSN, yahoo Messenger, Skype etc programs.

• Chicony Webcam is locked by another program on the Satellite Pro series

  The Integrated Chicony webcam on my Satellite Pro displays on my screen and I can adjust the settings, etc., and until yesterday, worked fine with Yahoo and MSN IM.

  However, since yesterday, I get a message saying that it is not connected or it is locked by another program.
  Alone, I can't look my friends webcsm either!

  My OS is Windows Vista Business.

  Any ideas?

  f.

  Please post laptop full name!

  With regard to the question of the webcam.
  Well, I found several ad about the same problem with the internal webcam.
  That's why I really recommend looking in this forum to find answers.

  But I give you a hint; the message appears because of the locked webcam service.
  Just try to disable and enable the service that controls the webcam in the msconfig.

  Finally and above all the new installation of the webcam driver and software, you can download from the Toshiba page, could solve this problem!

  Good bye

  Also, it does not at all using msn messenger for video conferencing... When I click on the video call icon, everything stops and msn messenger is not responding...
  I reinstalled the driver for the webcam and webcam service program, but nothing has changed!

  Hello

  The question of the internal webcam can be resolved by installing the update from Ms.
  The Vista SP1 also provides the necessary MS fix and it is advisable to install it too.

  I found this document Toshiba which describes this problem and brings you the solution.

• Satellite A200: After Vista Ultimate upgrade Chicony webcam does not work

  Hello

  I hope someone can help me. For 3 weeks, I have buy the Toshiba A200 with Windows Vista Home Premium and very good built-in Webcam function. I have no problem.

  Yesterday I did an upgrade to Windows Vista Edition full and now the Webcam does not work.
  Every time when I want to launch the following software message come «Please activate the webcam»

  In the it´s control panel that wrote this function of Doesna´t of hardware because the software isn't fair. But I have the right software. I have try the original software on me the hard drive and, of course, I do a download from Toshiba and I try this.
  But I still got the same message.

  Please help me.

  Hello

  I m not an A200 owner and, therefore, I can not say much about this webcam tool, but to my eyes the Chicony webcam software should work with Windows Vista Ultimate Edition, because this version is almost the same as Windows Vista Home Premium. The ultimate version supports more features like Home Premium, but the software is running and must be compatible with both versions of Vista.

  How did you install Vista Ultimate? You perform a new installation of the OS, or you upgrade only the Home Premium-> Ultimate?

  Anyway, currently version 1.0 of the Chicony camera software is available on the Toshiba page.
  You may need to wait until the new update has been published.

• Chicony Webcam not accessible after upgrade from Vista to Win 7 Home Premium

  I've upgraded or updated for Windows - 7 Edition Home Premium a couple of years on my Toshiba Satellite U305-S7448.  It has built in Chicony Webcam.  The camera used to have a Panel control that opens on the edge of the screen.  Now, no matter where I look at and I went to the Toshiba and Chicony sites to get the drivers I don't find a way to turn on the camera.  If I use Skype, it turns on and works normally for this function.  Recently, I clicked to add a profile picture on Google + and once again the camera came and worked very well.  When I look at the devices and click on the camera it tells me that it works correctly.  What escapes me that I can't use the camera as I could when I had Vista on the laptop originally?

  Thanks for all the advice and assistance to anyone.  I don't know exactly how to use these forums and technology in general.  I just want to know all that, after tripping over the Toshiba support site I finally found the solution to my problem.  There is a download for what they call the Total Value Package I think is the name.  It must be installed before the drivers webcam and then everything works as it did when the laptop was new.  Down load is listed as, util_tvap_TC00214700M, in my folder.
