LifeCam Studio works with laptop, not the Office? (Pilot questions)

I have a LifeCam Studio that works with my Acer laptop but does not work with my desktop computer.

Skype and ManyCam on the desktop, suffice to say that the unit is used with another program. I uninstalled and reinstalled the program and the driver manager devices, as well as the uninstall and reinstall the LifeCam software.

In my laptop Device Manager, the camera returns as LifeCam and a composite device, but on the desktop, it only installs under imagery as "webcam."

Any ideas?

Hello

If another application has control of the camera it is not available for use by others
programs up to what he was released by the control program. Usually, the camera will
be released when you close a program. Check in the Task Manager and close the program
If shown, or restart. Some messengers has control of the camera, so you would need
to ensure that the program has closed before the unit would be available for use
in other programs.

See the section "" I see the following error message: the camera is in use by another program "article."

  • Re: Satellite A300-234 - product key does not work with another disk the

    Broke the new Satellite A300-234, flied Windows Vista. I did not the backup copy of the system. At the system from a disk of another laptop Toshiba A200-23d.

    The key away. What should do?

    Hello

    The point is that the product key from the underside of the laptop can t be used with another drive in Windows. It s just for the preinstalled OEM version and doesn t work with other versions.

    Normally you n t have to enter a product key if you are using the Toshiba recovery disc because it contains a picture of the factory settings and is different from a disc of Microsoft Vista.

    Anyway, as said Akuma you can order a new drive Toshiba Recovery directly.
    The another model of laptop recovery disk will not work because the hardware is different.

  • Not able to save from the laptop to the office on a network.

    Hello

    I have 2 computers.

    The #1 computer is a Dell XPS 400 desktop that running Windows XP Media Center Edition Version 2002 with Service Pack 3 directly connected to a Linksys WRT54G wireless router with an Internet connection.

    The #2 computer in a Dell Studio 1737 laptop running Vista Home Premium with Service Pack 1, connect to the Internet and the desktop via the wireless router wirelessly.

    I have no problem, go out to the internet or to see the files and folders that I've shared desktop so that I can pull them up and change them to the laptop.

    The problem I have right now, it is that when I try to open, modify and then save a file on the desktop, I get an error message. Here are the steps that I tried to use a file TEST SAVE.txt that I created on the desktop in order to try to understand the problem.

    1. open the shortcut to my laptop in the folder that contains the TEST SAVE.txt. on my desk

    2. double-click on TEST SAVE.txt

    3. make a simple change in the document.

    4. choose Save in the file menu.

    Using this method, I get this error message.

    "Unable to create file name\TEST \\computer name\directory SAVE.txt.
    Make sure that the path and file name are correct.

    I also tried by repeating steps 1 to 3 above, but by choosing RECORD under in the file menu drop-down. When I do this it tells me that the file already exists, and I want to replace it. When I choose yes I get another error message saying the same thing as above.

    I checked to make sure that the files and folders on the desktop have been properly defined under attributes.

    No READ-ONLY checkbox.
    No hidden check box.

    Still no luck. Prolly something simple that I forgot, but any help in this would keep a few gray hairs to show.

    Thank you

    Hi Vlad70,

    Thanks for posting. Instead of using a shortcut to the file. Can you access the sharing, open it from there and see if you can save it?

  • His works on laptop but the headphones don't

    Hello

    I spent the last few hours LURKING through forums to try to solve this problem, but I have not thought about it then it is my last chance before I lift my hands upwards!  I have a laptop hp Compaq nc6220 I bought a refurbed just a week ago (but don't think to test this before the purchase feature, doh!)  in any case, it runs Windows XP Professional.
    Sound works when I watch a video on YouTube or other.  But when I plug my headphones, the sound continues to come out the speakers for computer rather than the helmet itself.  I tried several sets of headphones and the problem persists.  I downloaded the latest SoundMAX driver and this does not solve the problem.
    I went on the Panel and select sounds and Audio Devices option.  After having clicked on the Audio tab, there is a section that explains its default player.  I have SoundMax Digital Audio selected in the menu drop-down (the only other choice is wireless Bluetooth, which I don't know).  When I click on the Advanced button in this section, there is an option to select your speaker configuration, and I have "Stereo headphones" selected in the list.
    I'M out of IDEAS: P in any case, if someone has a suggestion to throw out there, I'd be most grateful.  It is not the end of the world or anything either, but I stay in a hostel right now so I'm almost never alone and can really use the headphone option to do not disturb my classmates-hostel.  Thank you!

    Hello

    In Windows XP, if you plug in headphones then the default audio device should get replaced by the helmet and you will be able to hear the sound from headphones not computer speakers.

    Even after connecting the headset, if you receive the sound from the speaker to the computer, then it might be the problem with the headphone jack.

    I suggest you to check with hardware support for laptop computer for more information.

  • Working with ems for the assgnment class

    We do a class assignment in Dreamweaver to make a Web page using ems and also a menu bar, of links with a list (not the spry menu). Everything is going well, as far as ems go, we test and in the browser, everything is progressing well when zoomed in. The text works and images work too, I just assign a class that is set to specific ems, to the image itself, so that it can scale to size in the browser. The problem, I'll have it is with my navigation menu bar in which I attribute a background image which is a simple gradient for each link. Seen in the browser, it does not increase in size with everything else. Unlike my images, I am not able to assign a class to the background behind my link image. I tried to repeat it and such, but it gives a bad appearance of course, as I don't want the image to tile. Anyway I can fix it that background image on my links with everything else?

    Also, remember that you can repeat your gradient image in the vertical direction only or horizontal only to include the full dimension of your menu item.  The link I've provided will tell you everything you need to know about the definition of the CSS rules for background images.
