  • CyberLink you cam

    I have a HP dv7-6c95dx. I am unable to use the webcam, because everythime I opened the Cyberlink Youcam software, I get the following message:

    "Wanrning: no webcam detected." Try connecting a webcam on your computer now. If you are using a built-in camera, sure that ut is in market".

    I can't turn it on, and when I go to Device Manager to reinstall the drivers, it does not appear. I have already tried to reinstall the program and have failed. Is there a way to fix this without sending it to the shop.

    ASRA,

    Welcome to the HP Forum!

    Difficulty webcam without sending the shop: Yes... maybe not.

    There are only a few things you can do about it on the software side.

    See:

    Webcam troubleshooting (Windows 8)

    What happens if the Webcam is DOA, dead, move not?

    The problem is with the little tiny and delicate wires that connect the camer (in the cover) for the rest of the computer - in the base.  Little son can be caught, crushed, broken or damaged.

    I heard a member of the Forum that claimed that he fixed its webcam in striking his computer - NOT recommended.  In his case, the wire has apparently been fixed or twisted and striking the computer potted everything back together.  We're more likely to make a bad situation worse if violence is used - even once, do not hit your computer.

    I got webcams last for eight years and still going strong, and I had a laptop in which the webcam was broken when I removed the computer of its delivery box.  (I sent the laptop to HP and it was quickly resolved).  It just depends...

    I suspect that the repair is not terribly expensive.  You can check with HP or your reputable repairman.

  • Problem webcam with Skype and MSN messanger on Satellite A300

    Hello.

    Well. The Australia contacted Toshiba. and got some information.
    Well, the person I spoke to said that he would try to find the drivers on the European site of Toshiba, which he did. And he said to uninstall the software from my camera assist.
    So I did, downloaded the new version, to install it. But I always get problems, saying that windows vista family premium, a USB device, does not work and windows does not recognize it.
    And also, had a driver error, saying: open the driver software or reboot your computer.

    Went on the forums of Toshiba and cast an eye, did show on their, but could not seem to find answers, and done in the last week or two.
    I just want, use Skype and MSN messenger.
    But if I can't get these problems must be solved, then no interest to install, probably does not work and haven't tried this feature yet on my machine.

    One had similar problems with their Toshibas? and where do I go from here.
    Really, which extends from my head and don't know what to do?
    The guys said maybe to make a recovery disk, but really don't want to go that route.

    It would mean having to spend hours to reinstall everything, and I don't really have the time to do at the moment.
    Very busy at the moment. If anyone can offer any other suggestions or where do I go from here?

    Had this problem when I got out of the box and purchased from Harvey Norman, Burnie, Tasmania.
    Marvin has soon.

    PS: If someone help, pourraient they send me an email to [email protected], in Australia, if they have the same problem and how they got around that one. !

    What model Toshiba do you have?

    Are you sure that the USB device is the webcam? Have you checked the Device Manager?

    * Download driver Chicony Webcam set to update from http://203.56.127.6/driver_download/Public//p2_all/ChiconyWebcam_v1.7.175.0123.exe

    * 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.

    Hey Buddy,

    What of your OS (operating system)?
    No info on this subject? ... Why?

    In your case, I'll try this:
    Remove the old webcam driver and reboot the laptop.
    Run CCleaner to clean the registry and Windows
    Stop and try again
    Install the latest driver from the Toshiba page.

  • Webcam driver missing

    Hi all

    My presario cq60 111em with integrated webcam now has a problem when l launch youcam a message appears that the webcam is not reconised and I can't find it with the Device Manager, wondered if the driver is missing ideas.

    Xorex,

    OK ideas...

    This link at the bottom of my first post has all the standard "Difficulty" of solutions...

    Here's the skinny I learned here on the forum:

    Read, read, read...

    This forum is full of stories of webcam... You can find: the hotfix, if there is one, is usually in the update of the driver.  Go to the search window and type "webcam."  Sort by date, if you wish...

    The capers of Bios:

    Sometimes - apparently - there is a BIOS update that fixes it.  I'm not a fan of the BIOS update unless noted.  You must be sure to update your bios with update YOUR bios.  Download the update to the BIOS of your computer and not someone of another link Web site.   If you do this, you'll be fine.  He can't fix your webcam, but at least you don't turn your computer into a fancy, expensive paper weight.  We have some very good experts HP here on the forum that can (and do) recommend BIOS links and they can trust: my point is do not use a link to someone of another computer unles this computer corresponds EXACTLY to your computer.  If there is an update to the BIOS of your computer, it will be the Web site of your computer and you can find it easily.  Once again, it may or may not fix the webcam.

    The son and other misfortunes:

    The other thing that happens to these webcams is that they fail sometimes simply due to material.  Sometimes it's the small wires that are loose.  If your laptop is no longer under warranty and you have the skills to do it, you might consider to disassemble the laptop and checking the wires.  This is not your average employment DYI - this is another way to make a fancy paper weight, cheap if you don't know what you're doing.  However, it is not on the upper end of difficulty as repairs go.  Some laptops have hardware very good manuals online, and there are a few very good videos YouTube there on repairs.

    It SWAT:

    There is a story (here in the forum) about someone who killed her webcam into submission.  It is not recommend it and admits to anger management issues - it's a testament to this problem of loose thread.  I bought a dv7t last summer and had to return for repair: webcam is DOA out of the box.  It's sad.

    Sneak to the top

    Sometimes, it's the WAY the driver is loaded.  You might be able to fool it.  Try to install it from SWSetup (how you did this time) and it starts.  IF it is a software, you will be able to NOW, delete it and then install the NEW one since the version downloaded .  NOT the SWsetup a new website - DELETE one that you have.

    Were still hesitating?  Always in the hope it is software?    Get in the Device Manager, remove the driver - delete it.

    Clean the registry. Reset.  Install the driver downloaded on the Web page.

    =====================================================================================

    Registry Cleaner, CCleaner (select and install the free version):

    http://www.Piriform.com/ccleaner/download

    NOTES on registry cleaners :

    Registry cleaners won't usually hurt - however, whenever you assign the registry with changes, you risk your system stability.  CCleaner includes the offer to make a backup of your registry before making any changes.

    If you choose to download and install another registry cleaner, please Uninstall CCleaner.  One of these things on the system at once is enough...

    If a Registry Cleaner does not offer to make a backup before making changes: don't forget to EXPORT you the registry manually before using the vacuum cleaner.  If something happens that you don't expect, you will have an extra layer of protection allowing to withdraw.

    IMO: Stay away from Registry Mechanic.  I had this on my systems - it is cleaned, removed, eliminated and dropped in the bucket zeros.  It is a personal Opinion.

    =====================================================================================

    Give up and buy a Clip on:

    I've written a few posts on this angle.  HP made a good (buy them a cheap, it's a waste of plastic) - Logitec makes great webcams... There are others.   Just do it and move...

    If I come with anything else useful and magical, I'll add it!

    Good luck!

    Hi all

    I have sony VGN-AR320E laptop. Just reinstal windows vista. Webcam does not work. gives me an error code 10. I tried to reinstal driver, looked online, could not fix. In Device Manager it says "this device cannot start. (Code 10) »

    I appreciated all the help,

    Hello

    Error code 10 is issued when the operating system knows exactly what went wrong. The result of this error is a hardware failure. Sometimes, it might be due to viruses, to which you can scan your system and take off from these infections. But the most likely reason would be some registry errors. You can use the registry scanning software to run a test on the box and they can automatically correct the error.

  • Integrated with HP Pavilion dv9715nr notebook PC webcam problem

    Hello everyone,

    I hope someone can help point me in the direction of a fix of webcam for the problem that my laptop has developed. I spent the last few days browsing the internet looking for a solution to what seems to be a widespread problem, but with no satisfactory solution.

    The problem:

    A few days ago my integrated webcam works with Youcam and other applications of webcam with the message 'not found webcam' or 'Please turn on integrated webcam. Dutifully, I went to the device manage and felt that there was no imaging device listed.

    Related problems:

    In addition to this problem, I sometimes get an installation of an unknown USB device. This device is, I'm sure that the webcam, but try as I might I cannot point to the drivers of webcam or update its driver to something other than the best driver that is already.

    What I've tried so far:

    -Reinstall the drivers from the HP website. None of the many different types of pilot managed to bring the webcam life or showing in imaging devices.

    -Follow-up guide HP for the problems of webcam that ends up pushing me towards contacting HP help desk. Which, I imagine, will cost you a lot more money than the I have no money.

    -Uninstall all usb devices and reinstall using scan for the hardware changes. This has, once or twice, brought back the web cam and imaging device and worked for a while. However, before I can update its drivers computer freezes and turns itself off.

    -Flashed the bios. No change.

    -Downloaded the drivers from various other cam as suggested in the huge amount of bugs, there are online for this problem. Unfortunately, none of them worked.

    -Recovery plant recovery drive. The webcam is still missing in the imagery of the Device Manager section.

    Technical specifications:

    HP Pavilion dv9715nr notebook PC

    Vista 32 bit premium - service Pack2

    AMD Turion Mobile Technology TL-60 2.00 GHz Dual Processor

    1.94 GB OF RAM

    BIOS F.33, 3.09 M

    Webcam integrated into the lid of the laptop.

    Demand:

    If I understand the large amount of online discussion on what is a common problem and I hope that, among the pages and pages of bugs I looked, I missed a fix somewhere.

    If you have had and solved the problem, or if you have an idea how to sort it out, I'd love to hear from you.

    Edmonds (not Christmas)

    Hello again,

    First of all, let me thank the support forum HP for all their advice and now down to business.

    After a week of problems webcam and extensive research on the internet for a fix for the problem that I finally managed to get my webcam - however, I'm not sure how I did it.

    Below is a step by step guide.

    Now, I know that's not exactly the most empirical of bugs, however, it worked for me. From what I remember last night, the key points seem to be the following. If I insist I was very drunk and I tried almost every difficulty in the two websites above. (The bullet points below are not related)

    • Installation of a very old version of Quickplay.
    • Install the drivers from the DPinstall32.exe.
    • Get a webcam driver update Ricoh are displayed in windows update.
    • Go to Panel configuration/program and using change to the webcam repair and modification.
    • Play with the Services Windows Image acquisition.

    There was, no doubt, many other things I've done and, quite frankly, I am surprised that I did not kill my laptop I did most of them at the same time. However, the webcam is back and running so I recommend drunken stupidity and perseverance as key elements of this fix.

    Finally, somewhere in the two threads I linked will be your fix. There are a lot of different patches so keep and you can do with one of them.

    Good luck. Mines a pint of the black stuff.

  • Can't find my webcam on the laptop!

    I have a Dell Inspiron 1525 with a built-in webcam... I had to take the laptop to get fixed so the guy had to reinstall windows vista.  It works when I have a chat on Windows Live Messanger but when I want to record or take photos with it I don't think.  And also before I had reinstalled it I got a bar at the top with internet, webcam, itunes settings and all that but I can't get the back no more. Help!

    Hi Cherrydrop2165,

    Webcam C910, Logitech HD worked and still works on Win 7 Ultimate 32 bit computer desk Dell, beautiful camera, however, I bought an ASUS laptop 64 bit and got Win 7 Ultimate on it too and the cam will run Skype, different sites with interaction cam FINE, but when you ask it to capture the photo of my cat , he returned and said 3,2,1, (as he always does) and says "CAPTURE FAILED".  This applies also to video on Logitech C910, just WONT CAPTURER.  I tried too many things to list, enter 12 hours with the Technical Support of Logitech divided into 4-5 calls and they are very polite but ultimately say something like 'check your reverend DirectX' well, it's new 1st class line superior ASUS laptop, also the last time, I talked to them, they said "ok, who does ", we will degenerate and call withiin 48 hours..." NO CALL... they do not have a difficulty still in their box, it claims Win 7 32 & 64 bit.  Anyone got any ideas?  Tried deleting on laptop internal cam, tried the drivers, like I said my list is VERY LONG, I quit as Logitech has apparently also.  Sometimes these things happen.  I hope that there is an intelligent person who ran into this and can help me.

    Guess what it was?  Logitech went through sending me boredom 920 HD Webcam FREE thinking that would fix it, there somehwhere they understood led aomething crazy Logitech and cost them tons of money...

    The person I spoke was absolute great fellow, he said, "save under" for attempted desktop capture, BINGO, it worked, so I went down in my own records and set a folder y calle C920 video and photos, tried it Win 7 says "Ok I let u do it too»

    My personal opinion, MS made restrictions of RULES TONS on Win 7 and not do good work to all the relay of messages to the public, I'm angry at Microsoft, a first time... I also have a couple other examples: I buy software and it comes to Outlook 2007, but of course it says 'OH NO '.< u="" cant="" download="" direct="" frim="" email="" unless="" u="" r="" an="" admin.......................i="" am="" an="">

    In addition, if you have photos, videos, documents. projects, C++ files in one place on Win 7 it stain auto setting, you can't CUT and paste it somewhere else... I did copy, paste and in 2 places and delete the default location that doesn't WELL HE DELETED EVERYTHING.. . If you pasted what was in this folder in 10 others, etc then it removes all 10 places as it is in default, u try move and delete?  U R BIG TROUBLE because it deletes everything.

    I'm really fine with Windows, but Win 7 was madelike the old HP calculators, everything is back, full of blocks in the ability to do what that it is unnecessarily wasting space, I just flat thing it is worst OS they never go out, WIN 8's fate not so much "you must buy victory 8", MS is terrible in many ways although perhaps they realize has a terrible mess win 7 is and trying to run on the city as quickly as possible.

  • Flash Player WebCam Control on Surface Pro 4 running W10 - ZOOM IN TOO FAR?

    Hi forum.  Using Surface Pro4 10 and good w/Windows version of Adobe Flash and installation, my front facing webcam grown way too much to be usable.  Never the case on the Surface Pro 3 or earlier.  Thoughts?

    We were able to reproduce it and have a bug open about it.  I have no ETA at this moment, but I think it will be quite simple.

    For IE and Edge, we are generally linked Microsoft patch Tuesday schedule, mi - Feb would be earlier that a fix would be the ship, although it is entirely dependent on whether or not a fix committed in time.

    For something like 64 - bit Firefox Beta (which is a much better experience than the ordinary Firefox 32 bit on Win10), we have the distribution pipeline, so the difficulty could land in a weekly Flash Player beta by then.

    Betas of flash player are available at http://www.adobe.com/go/flashplayerbeta and 64 bit Firefox is available here: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/beta/all/

    In the meantime, you can probably work around it with an external webcam, but I know that's not ideal.
