LifeCam Cinema is not recognized at all

I just bought a new on Amazon Lifecam cinema yesterday and tried to make it work without success - the sound works, but there is no video. I tried the Lifecam Studio, Skype, and Windows Live Messenger and none of them can use webcam video (it's 'in service' even if nothing else use it). I tried to uninstall and reinstall the drivers & software several times, by plugging the webcam in all USB ports, that I don't have, made a clean boot, each solution on every Web page I've met has done anything for me.

I followed these articles with no chance of support: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/933311 and http://support.microsoft.com/kb/933310

  • Webcam LifeCam Cinema is not in the LifeCam software, but works (in low def) with other programs.

    Just installed my LifeCam Cinema in the correct order (CD of the software first, then plug the webcam into a USB socket). The usual pop-ups in the status bar is displayed (new hardware found, the webcam is properly identified, "ready to use" and shows in Device Manager) and the installation tells me the installation of the drivers and software is made. Installation normally ends when I click done at the end, but never start step 3 (the camera configuration).
     
    The camera works (not in HD) in Windows Explorer, the last Live Messenger and Skype, but NOT in the LifeCam 3.0 program. "There is no camera connected to this computer," he says, and the only option I have is to click on the help icon. There is no other error message.
     
    I have tried to uninstall, reinstall with the LifeCam 3.0 package downloaded, restart, all the try again all other USB 2.0 ports, disconnect all other USB devices, but the LifeCam software will not find my camera. That way I don't get access to the advanced settings like the resolution and these stupid effects, I was eager to try :) :(

    I have .NET installed 3.5, but only Live Messenger than essentials package. Do I need anything else to make LifeCam 3.0 find my camera?

    In your case geojayhawk, I would be re - install the drivers for the LifeCam. For some reason, he must have a difficult time reading the driver INF file.

  • Some tags are not recognized at all (mp3/ogg, always full albums)

    Hello!

    I encountered a strange problem. My rocket recognizes not all my files tags. — about 1/3 of my songs appear as 'unknown' as 'unknown '. My question is, someone bumped into what whether similar? I tried searching this forum but can't find anything similar.

    It's a little weird, like:

    • They are always full albums that are not recognized (i.e. newer than a part of an album).
    • I have not found a common application for the albums, tags are not recognized;
    • Some of them are MP3 (id3v2.4 I presume), some are OGG,.
    • some (most) is torn apart by myself CD, some are not.
    • I have them checked (of course) on the computer and all my software recognizes the tags.

    For example, 4 8 Weather Report albums are "unknown" - and one of them is OGG, MP3 3 and 4 which ARE recognized, 3 are OGG and 1 is MP3. I have my albums organized in the manner of MUSIC/artist/Album folders / *. [mp3/ogg] on the "rocket".

    All have been (re) marked with easytag, in fact, that I have recently relabelled/checked the tags of my entire collection with easytag (to ensure that it is usable on the "rocket"). There must be something wrong with my tags. I tried to format the device (in the menu), reset the database by deleting the device, but it does not... help on the updating of the database that is the same files that do not have recognized, however.

    Any suggestions or ideas?

    Thanks for your help!

    Hi again!

    And, thanks to the advice of sansafix, this problem is now solved!

    It seems that id3v2.4 was the culprit - my files under 2.3 relabeling them does the job. In addition, my OGG files were (and still are) the ID3 tag, unlike what I thought. But now they are 2.3 work also.

    Don't know why some of the tags did work, however, even though they were all 2.4 - but their relabelling as 2.3 made it all work in any case. Also, in easytag, I can't seem to be able to prevent OGG files of the ID3 tag, I can only it stop him marking with ID3 alltogether (which is not nice, because I have MP3 and OGG). There is an option to avoid tagging FLAC with ID, however. Maybe I should post a feature request for the guys of easytag, this should be easy to implement...

    I have my tags to format UTF-16 also and did not encounter any problems (yet - my rocket is still so new I don't have time to see all the songs with characters & foreign languages).

    But, in any case, thanks again! Very useful forum, it is indeed.

  • USB device not recognized - F2180 all-in-One

    Hello

    I'm having a hard time getting anything out of my F2180 all-in-One printer.

    It worked well for awhile, but now I get a message from Windows Vista saying that the USB device is not recognized and the State showing as disconnected. I tried a number of things that resulted in no results:

    1 installed Driver Detective and updated all my drivers.

    2 disconnected the printer from the mains and the USB cable from the computer. Connected, rebooted and still nothing.

    3 entretienavec the computer on the network. Trendy, rebooted and still not recognized.

    4. run the Diagnostics of the HP. Watch there are connection issues and documents stuck in print, but not able to set.

    I had a glance on the forum to see if others have similar problems, and although some have, no solution seems to come. Don't know what to do now. If anyone can offer help, it would be most appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Just a suggestion, try to change the usb cable...

    or connect any other USB flash drive device and check if it still not encourage recognize...

    some cases, maybe it would chipset issues on your computer if it does the same thing with your other USB devices except the keyboard and mouse.

  • Not recognized, yet all the numbers!

    My printer HP Photosmart C4400 all-in-One Series, model HP Photosmart C4480 has a number more than talking about the page How To and the video.

    Yes, the printer is actually in production (2008?) but I've only used out-of-the-box for 4 months in 2012 and then he is back in stock.  I just he carried out of the box, about a year later and of course had to install new ink.

    I wanted to check the printer was recorded (it is) and see if there are new driver updates, etc..

    and try to find out if it is to be on the noisy side is correct.

    I also need to know why, when I choose 'Set up', I got a window saying my device is not recognized, even if it is here, in the computer.  I can see it in the dock (MacBook Pro).  I wanted to do once more the printer by default - I had been driving on a friends through his cannon.

    Sticker on the bottom of the printer, left of the connecting cable has a number of "CN946M"... "more the barcode and the words"product of China ". On the right side of this vignette even longer numbers, which reads Q8383-6... [32].
    Then, on the bottom, to the front there is ANOTHER sticker that, aside from logos miners, gives the "regulatory model number", read "SNPRB-00"... ' and another number, the number of the product warranty, also begins with Q838, BUT this is different: "Q8388A.  NOTE: the other number (above) read 8383
    Above this vignette is a barcode with "Q8388 6"... "Still has another, different number and the words"Product of Singapore"
    On my 'Start Here' literature, there is a barcode at the bottom right that reads in part Q8383-9...

    then, friends of HP, which number is which?  And this a C-4400 or a C4480 printer?  And given that the warranty has expired for a long time even if its use is only 6 months old and the fact that I'm not "with it" with all the techno jargon (I had to seek that meant :-) OCR I would also like to know where to go (the lists are so long) for easy to request assistance.

    Thank you!!!

    Hi Cloudrowdy,

    I know by looking at the stickers on the printer can sometimes feel like watch the alphabet soup.

    Your product number is Q8388A, the printer is the all-in-one HP Photosmart C4480. The c4480 belongs to the serious c4400, I call the c4400 family and thinking about the c4480 as a cousin.

    The prescribed number is just a number of marketing necessary to make you worry about. The only other number may never need to is the serial number. Because the printer was made in China, the serial number will begin with CN and you should never the first 10 digits. I say this because it can be 14 digits in the serial number. Once again, alphabet soup! For security, I do not recommend that you never post your serial number on a public forum.

    I was wondering if someone could help me.

    I bought my 1.5 terrabyte toshiba external hard drive just for more than a year. It works fine on my other computer, laptop and cell phone from my boyfriend, but when I joined four other new laptops (all different brands) recently it was not recognized at all on these laptops.

    Hey-

    A few days ago I plugged in (USB) flash drive of 512 MB on my desktop Dell (Windows Vista), and that bubble "USB device not recognized" come at the bottom of my screen. I tried to put in the other USB ports, ports on different computers and the same message appeared. This device seems not more in Device Manager (do not even like a disc without a name). This worked perfectly well before flash player. Is there a formatting problem that must be corrected in my USB key, or what is the problem?

    If the drive is not recognized at all then you cannot format it no more. Disks wear and/or
