Webcam always says in use by another application, when I click on switch or try again nothing happens

Hello

1 - is a built-in webcam?
2. don't you make changes before the show?
3. When you receive the message?
4. What is the brand and model of the webcam?

Method 1:
You can also check in the Task Manager running other applications that use the webcam. If there is a demand then complete the application process and check.

I suggest you perform the clean boot and check if it helps

  • A problem with cc libraries "the file does not exist, you may not, or the file may be in use by another application".

    I'm working on our catalogue on INDesign CC 2015, I have a links to my libraries, I worked every day without any problem. I work on a Mac and Win system, I put the file on my disk hard or on files of cc.

    2 days ago, I opened the file and as a result with any missed links, when I tried to re-link on my library the program shown Indesign files missed this message "the file does not exist, you may not, or the file may be in use by another application", I contacted Italian cat Adobe they suggested me to change the name of the file I did but nothing happened, they suggested to create a new owner of the computer, but it did not work because I work within a team and the file is opened to others of collaboration. I have 333 links so what I shell do? Please help me, I have to finish this work, we need print it out as soon as possible.

    I had this problem after an Indesign file that we've been working on the opening of my colleague. She has made a few changes and then when I went back to work on the file of the library of all the links were broken and I had him "you don't have to leave."

    I've corrected the problems by opening Illustrator and rename the library. InDesign revived and everything from the library was connected properly.

  • Reinstalling windows 7 ultimate retail after changing the SSD, the motherboard and the processor. I'm having a problem with the reactivation?

    I'll upgrade my desktop PC, by changing the motherboard, processor and SSD drive with the OS on it to boot. I have a problem with the reactivation of windows, and should I turn it off, somehow first, or the previous version will be considered as-enabled automatically? It is a retail, windows 7 64 ultimate version. Please advise, thanks in advance.

    Just reactivate by phone:

    How to activate Windows 7 manually (activate by phone)
     
    1) click Start and in the search for box type: slui.exe 4
     
    (2) press the ENTER"" key.
     
    (3) select your "country" in the list.
     
    (4) choose the option "activate phone".
     
    (5) stay on the phone (do not select/press all options) and wait for a person to help you with the activation.
     
    (6) explain your problem clearly to the support person.
     
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/950929/en-us

    Remember, if it is a retail upgrade license:

    However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

    15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

    So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

    You can skip to enter the product key and try the activation of the phone to work around this problem.

  • Problems with the WEB BROWSER blackBerry Smartphones, use not wifi network to open some Web sites

    Hello I'm owner of BB BOLD 9900 OS 7.1... for the last two days I am facing a pretty annoying problem with the BB browser.

    It means not affects the device... it just annoys me.

    When I TURN ON my WiFi on my BB with the network carrier Sim already homepage active who has a Active on it and open the web browser BB, according to the website on which I open the web browser chooses between the internet Wi - fi OR internet BIS carrier which is weird. BECAUSE a default if the wifi is enabled, then the web browser MUST use internet wifi network carrier for navigation. YOU TUBE, FB and TWITTER.com all use my carrier netwrok to open bt soon I open BBC.com or CNN or any other site the wifi symbol appears on the right side and so it uses the wifi network... and disappears when I opened THE 3 SITES you tube FB n twitter.

    My knowledge is that when you activate THE wifi network, the WEB browser is intended to USE the wireless internet, NOT the internet carrier

    The next time I switchd off the the carrier signal, and then Turned ON one internet WI - FI and then opened the web browser of BB. so now all the opend website with wifi internet bt as soon as I open YOU TUBE or FB or TWITTER.com it post a comment... .that cannot visit the web page when the carrier is off. Please turn on the radio n try again... I mean IT SHOULD OPEN with internet wifi? WHY do network carrier sim to open the web page?

    I have checkd my browser settings and they are default and also my wifi settings I have reset the... the problem still persists?

    any idea wats going on?

    Please help is needed I'm annoyed about this problem...

    Thank you

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    This problem is usually caused due to hardware or driver related issues. I suggest you try to install the latest drivers for the camera on the Asus or Windows Update site and check if it helps.

    If the problem persists, then it would be better to contact Asus for more help on this issue. As this could be a problem with the hardware as well.
