How do I use the built in webcam on my computer laptop gateway?

I have no idea how even turn on the webcam. I don't know even where to find the software for the webcam. I tried to use Skype and that no longer works. Is there anyway that I can fix this?

On your front door, you have the Camera Assistant Software installed. It is not a start menu entry, but you should find that it listed in programs and features, if it is installed. If it is installed and running, you should find an icon in the notification area and that there should be a hidden toolbar that will show if you move your mouse cursor along the top of your screen. If you do not have the software installed you should be able to download and install it from the gateway support site.

  • Not able to use the built-in webcam

    I have a HP Pavilion dv6t - 6 c 00. I've upgraded to windows 7 ultimate which I had windows 7 Home premium that I could use the webcam, but now it displays an error when I open cyberlink youcam "warning, no webcam detected. Try connecting a webcam on your computer now. If you are using a built-in camera, make sure it is turned on." I looked and tried all the steps except the final step that the cyberlink youcam software does not allow me to click on the configuration settings. What should I do to activate my webcam?

    According to the message that you have recently published, I want to confirm that this could be a hardware problem and I highly recommend to Contact HP immediately technical support by phone for further assistance immediately to get your Notebook diagnosed and repaired by an authorized HP Certified Engineer

  • How / can I use the built in camera on Asus laptop to take pictures?

    I don't know if you can answer this question, but I will ask the case. I have an Asus laptop running windows 7. I noticced theres a webcam above the screen, but I can't find a way to activate it in order to download and send photos. I searched for at least a few hours which made me curious of if the Asus laptop can even take pictures, or if the unit is only for VideoChat?

    To use the web cam, you have 2 options.

    option 1

    * Go to www.picanom.com

    * Click on allow if a box appears

    * Click on the snap

    Review of the photos that you took and click on save or print in the upper left corner of the image.

    * After clicking on save, click Download.  She will appear next to the "print" key.

    Option 2

    You must have the software to use the webcam.  I searched in google and foundhttp://www.yawcam.com/download.php as the best free software.

    Also, I found this one if you do not want to install a program.  You just download this, but you don't have to install it.  It would have been my choice #1, but it appears that half of my webcam, as something was covering the other half.  It took good pictures, but with a built-in cam, it sucks because actually you have to be sitting on the side to be centered.  You can try it on your PC, it can run different.  I have a Mac Book Pro with boot camp installed running under windows 7.  This is maybe why it did not work for me http://www.softpedia.com/get/Internet/WebCam/Rebellious-Productions-CamSnap.shtml

  • I use the built-in webcam does not not on Vista Home Premium Lite Hp Compaq Presario CQ60-310ET

    I can't configure the driver for the webcam. error message: "necessary .inf file missing '.

    my computer running vista home basic standartly and my webcam worked but when I installed home premium lite my webcam is not more work please help me.

    Start uisng origianl systems. Home premium lite is not system provided by Microsoft. It is a modified version of the Microsoft System. This is why your webcam is not working. This version of 'windows' was caught lots of programs and files. Which is why this name change lite.
    Install original Edition Vista Home Premium you buy first, then writing issues.

  • How can I use the same e-mail for PC and laptop program?

    Hi, I recently bought a laptop and would be able to open, read, send and store my emails, exactly as I do on my PC. We use windows mail. I can do currently using webmail, but I want to be able to do in exactly in the same way as on the PC. Any ideas please? I have Windows Vista on my PC and Windows 7 on my laptop.

    Thank you

    The problem is that Windows 7 comes with no e-mail program installed.  You can use Windows Mail, but you will need to hack (see http://www.techspot.com/vb/topic137494.html).  Pushes Microsoft Windows Live Mail as the alternative, but many can't find any favourable and it is full of annoying bugs, then you might want to explore other possibilities of e-mail.  Outlook is another alternative.  Regardless of the e-mail client, you need go to tools | Accounts | Mail | Properties | Advanced (or the equivalent in another program) and set it to keep a copy of messages on the server on both computers so that each can receive the same messages and then on one set to delete messages after a number of days (so they don't accumulate).

  • Old laptop broke, lost CD to install it, but have the serial number, how do I get the PS Elements on my new computer laptop?

    Hello

    My old laptop was able to break on me, so I had to get a new one. Initially, I bought a tablet of bamboo comes with Adobe Photoshop Elements 5.0 (it happened quite earlier, in fact). I searched the CD install on my new laptop, but I failed to find it and after going through my room throughout the whole garage and cellar, I came to the conclusion that it's probably lost for good. It seems too have registered my product before, but I don't remember my old Adobe ID or password or anything. Also, I had to change emails because my old one hacked, so the email associated with all that was my former Adobe ID is now useless for me. However, I still have my serial number of the product, and I want to know if there is any way I can get possibly the items on my new laptop without having to pay for it. I was actually very happy with Elements 5.0, I don't really care get the version update unless necessary somehow. Is there a way this can possibly be done? Any help is appreciated at all very well.

    Also, my old laptop is a Toshiba PC laptop, and now I have a laptop Dell PC, so no Mac for me. Not sure if this is relevant, just thought I should probably include just in case.

    Thank you!

    Unfortunately, the oldest available version of Photoshop Elements is version 7.  I don't know of any resource to download version 5.

    If it is doubtful that the former of a version would work on a new machine.

    Hello

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/Troubleshoot-camera-connection-problems

    You probably need to recharge the device drivers and camera control software (usually included
    with the drivers and installed at the same time).

    Login as an administrator.

    Double-click Control Panel / Device Manager - Imaging - writing down of the brand and model of camera.
    on this subject and on the tab of the driver is version. Now, click on update drivers (who are unable to do anything as MS
    is far behind the pilots of certification). RIGHT click on the camera - UNINSTALL - REBOOT - it
    will update the driver stack.

    Now, go to the system manufacturer's website and download the latest driver for the camera and the other related camera
    software (if not more recent get the same).

    Download - SAVE - go to them and RIGHT CLICK - RUN AS ADMIN - reboot after each driver.

    Manually look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers.
    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

    Installation and update of drivers to 7 (update drivers manually using the methods above is preferred
    to make sure that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are located)
    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

    Then let windows updates on however prevent loading of drivers who are often older than the
    those that you have installed. If updates suggests a pilot and then HIDE it and watch manually to see if their
    really is a more recent version (at the time system manufacturer and the sites of the manufacturer of the device).
