LifeCam VX-6000 only opens the readme file

I have a LifeCam VX-6000 webcam and am running Windows 7 Home Ultimate.

I installed the last form of software software LifeCam 3.0 site Ms.  The software is installed, and the camera seems to be fine.  I see it in the list of devices, there is a driver, etc..  However, when I click on all programs--> Microsoft LifeCam--> MicroSoft LifeCam * GOLD * I just right click on the object in the devices tab of the control panel and choose then start LifeCam, instead of opening an application, I get the readme file. I watched it that points to Shortcut Menu start, and it is an executable file.  I restarted but also uninstalled/reinstalled the software.  I also looked on the web and not seen a problem like this.  Any help is welcome!

Well, it is something new, as you have said! You can contact the support of LifeCam and get a replacement if the webcam is default.

In the meantime, try the steps in this KB article and check if you can fix the webcam:

  • Cannot open the .indd files in InDesign CS6

  • iCal open the alert file does not

    I have installed 10.11.3. iCal Prefs are set correctly according to the suggestions of Apple.

    However, if I set an alert to open the file in the section 'Custiom', the alert does not open the file or reacts in any way in time. What's most frustrating is when I open the same file again to check if I did something wrong, the field 'alert' is 'None' showing!

    What I want to buy Fantastical2 app (tested, it turns very well), although iCal played perfectly for years on different platforms of OS X, I used?

    Hello there, Bob.

    It seems that you encounter no success with the calendar to inform you with alerts personalized on your MacBook Pro. One thing to try is to test the behavior in a new user. This testing process is described in the following Knowledge Base article:

    How to test a question in another account on your Mac.

    Before you try a different user account

    If you see unexpected behavior on your Mac to first try the following steps:

    Try to search the base knowledge of Apple for the specific symptom or an alert message you see. There could be more simple measures that you can take to solve the problem.

    Try to boot your Mac in Mode safe. Restart your computer. Hold the SHIFT key when you hear the startup sound. Release the SHIFT key when you see the Apple logo appears. Your Mac starts up in Safe Mode. Safe mode performs a check of your startup disk directory and removes data from the cache. Once your finished Mac commissioning, restart the Mac normally (without hold the SHIFT key) and see if the problem is resolved.

    Make sure your software is up-to-date. The question that you see can be addressed by installing the available updates.

    Check to see where the problem occurs. If a problem arises until you see your desktop, it is less likely that it is related to a setting or a user account. If a problem occurs with a Web site, see if the pages of other websites correctly first load. There could be a problem with the site and not your Mac.

    How to test with another user account

    You can find out if unexpected behavior is related to the user file or a parameter in trying to reproduce the problem to a different user account. This process includes creating a new user account, connect to it and test for the issue.

    Create a test user account

    1. In the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
    2. Click the users and groups in the System Preferences window.
    3. Click the lock icon and enter an administrator name and password.
    4. Click on the button Add (+) below the list of users.
    5. Choose a type of user in the new pop-up menu.
    6. Give the user a name and first name, account name, and password.
    7. Click OK.
    8. Close the System Preferences window.

    If there are documents from your user account that you want to test with original, place a copy of these items in the shared folder in the users folder. Press the Option key while dragging a file in this folder to create a copy.

    Connect to the test user account

    Log out of your current user account by choosing logout in the Apple menu, and then open a session the new account that you created. If you are prompted to login with your iCloud or Apple ID account when you log in, skip this step.

    Try to reproduce the problem

    Try the same steps that caused the unexpected behavior to appear. For example, if you are unable to print, try printing from this user account. If you were unable to connect to the Internet, try to navigate on a website of this user account.

    If you use specific test settings depends on (for example using a specific e-mail account or an account iCloud) implemented the same test user account. For email and other parameters, you can use the Internet accounts pane in system preferences to set up these types of accounts. If your home folder files are necessary for tests, copy them into the shared folder in the users folder (/ Users/Shared). After you connect as a user test, copy these items to the same location in the test user home folder to test with.

    If a problem occurs in account only one user

    Is using the same steps in a user account test does not cause the same unexpected behavior, most likely you don't need to reinstall applications or OS X.

    • If a problem occurs only in a single application, check the documentation or Web site for instructions on troubleshooting specific preferences or the definition of the application files.
    • If you need help with a problem or a specific alert message, search the Apple support Web site for the text of the alert message you see.

    If a problem occurs in more than one user account

    If the same unexpected behavior occurs in more than one user account on your Mac, try checking for software or hardware problems.

    Thank you for reaching out to the communities of Apple Support.

    Kind regards.

    Hi jamesgillwn,

    1. when exactly you get this error message?
    2. what disc do you use to reinstall?
    3. What is the exact error that appears when you try to start?
    4. at what point of the installation you get the error message?

    After researching the error 0x8007000D code is essentially due to file corruption and a problem with the drive itself.

    First check if you have scratches or dust on the disc and clean the surface and try again.

    To check if the disk is wrong, you will need to copy the contents of the DVD to the hard drive and try to install using that.

    Try the steps from the following link:

    Note: When you perform the installation, you will lose the data, make sure that you need to backup your data before you perform the installation.

  • Must be able to open the .csv file in Excel separated by two, and; -Windows 7 list separator

    It may be one, sorry.  But you can use an Excel template or Excel macro to analyze and open any kind of delimited file of reproducibly (even give you one-click button on the toolbar in Excel to do if you wish), and this is probably the best option.

  • Preview in the browser opens the local file instead of the url in DW CC 2015

    In 2014 Dreamweaver when I defined a site, I check it too remote and test server since they are the same. Once I finish editing I use Ctrl + Shift + u to upload to the server and if it is not still open in the browser, I press F12 to preview, and he opens the url. In 2015, Dreamweaver, I uncheck/remove the test server and leave only the remote server for so I have a defined test server, whenever I have downloads on the server automatically (which is annoying if you're not done with your changes yet or you have a little time of latency on your FTP connection). It's bulky, since it's a habit whenever I have some changes and download only when I'm about to test the changes. With the undefined testing server, when I press F12, the DW redirects to the local file instead of the URL defined in site settings. Now, I have to type the full url for each page I test. It is an approach back the previous version. Either enable in the browser preview, open the real link, as defined in site settings or please have an option to disable the auto push when recording. Thank you!

    First of all, you are right in your new configuration that remote and testing server should not be in the same.  It is not a good habit to get.  However, without a test in place server, DW will only use the local file to test because you don't want to push the Webcam page live on the server until it is complete.  In this case, DW creates a temporary file that you can view on your local computer.  In general, it is recommended to have a test server, if that exists within your local environment with local installation of WAMP/MAMP or Windows Server.  Or a specified test server environment that is not accessible to the public where you can test.

    In addition, to save them automatically download to the server and overwrite the file direct download or not, those are 2 settings to DW within which can be displayed/hidden.  First of all, in the DW preferences, there is a setting for "Preview in browser".  In this context, there is a checkbox to choose whether to display a preview with a temporary file.  If you have no other choice then to use the server as a test platform, you probably want to check this box to preview using a temporary file rather than overwrite the direct file each time.  Then if you go to the server management and change your test server, go to the Advanced tab and uncheck the box for "check automatically download files on the server.  This will disable the download file automatically the file on the server when you save, allowing you to download only when you preview and test.

  • JavaScript to open the PDF file

    Hi all. First time poster here. I need to open a PDF file from a javascript that I run using wscript.exe. I also need to fill out some fields in form. I will create the Javascript file on the fly from an application I'm developing. The development environment is a system based script that does not use javascript, but it doesn't have the ability to make calls from the shell.

    So my goal is to create a .js on the fly file, and then open a PDF form and fill it out. I have already all the javascript code needed to fill out the forms, but I can't for the life of me how to communicate with Acrobat or Reader itself in order to run javascript.

    I can and have created records of FDF and then open the file with the Adobe application and that works very well, but the PDF file must be crafted to open the FDF file from opening, and I want to avoid this extra step. I want to be able to fill out the form directly from my application.

    The development environment is NOT C based ot Java-based, otherwise it would be a simple matter of using the API prescribed for them.

    Any ideas?

    You do not have Acrobat execute JavaScript from a file, but you can ask that it executes JavaScript from a string. Do this, use one of the several APIs, not a command line or shell call. VB is probably the best language as it fits perfectly with JavaScript. Whatever you do, you will need the Acrobat SDK. And none of this will work with the free Adobe, only Acrobat Reader.  (I don't know how it would be easy if your environment is based on Java).

  • I can't open the html files created outside the Muse to Muse?

    Basically, it would be useful if I can open existing sites with Muse - say if I wanted to update here and there. Anyone know if this is possible? Or if not, that he might be in the future?

    Hi Palmerowen,

    It is not possible to edit html files in Muse right now. Muse can only read the .muse file. However, if you have some knowledge of the code, you can change these files in dreamweaver.

    OK, I guess there will be corruption of the SPFILE as if edited manually or in any other cases too.

    You have a backup of SPFILE? backup of the file PFILE or?

    then starting using this SPFILE, if any backup then start with PFILE and then create SPFILE from PFILE.

    Otherwise, you can copy the contnets of the parameters of the alert log file initialization and paste in the editor and the instance of starutp.
