My computer can't find the built-in webcam.

This computer is as two years, as well as between the years, nobody used the device. But now, when I connect computer or the Web sites of programs (Windows live messenger, Skype, etc.) the computer does not detect the webcam unless I'm in other websites (Facebook, Twitter, Myspace, etc.). I want to use this webcam to take pictures of me, but the computer does not detect the integrated webcam. I've tried everything. You are my last resort. Help, please!

I hope this helps. How to use a webcam:

  • my computer can't find the path for windows install what I do to get it back

    whenever I restart my computer, a box appears saying: it can not find the path for windows install and the box comes back to how to fix this

    Hi Billy,

    Try a clean boot (Vista and W7) http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135. If the problem goes away then it's just a matter of tracking down the culprit at the origin of the problem. Follow the procedures described in the article. Once found, remove, delete, disable or uninstall. Once don't forget to reset your system back to the normal state, as described in the procedures. If the problem occurs in clean mode then just restore the system to normal and reboot - this solution will not work. If you are using XP, see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310353 and http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316434.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • Deinstitutionalized drive, my computer can not find the music stored on the internal drive

    I was recently released from the balance of PAYMENTS (Bureau of Prisons), and I gladly paid $25 for the reader deinstitutionalized. I got it in the mail and I am very happy with the improvements, however, when I plug it into the computer, the computer cannot find the music that I invested a lot of money.  The drive works fine.  I can listen to all the songs that are on it, but I can't find them with all software, including the software downloaded from Sansa. When I click on the player, in any program/browser, I get the same thing: the folders that are empty.  It saves space, but sees ALL files.  Many of the albums available at the bottom of the PYRAMID were incomplete and I want to "fill the gaps", but can not find the whites to fill.  Any help would be wonderful.  I paid my $95 (for the player AND have unlocked it) MORE about $1400 in the songs, so it's a pretty big deal for me to get access... Thanks in advance.

    My guess is, it is a question of USB MSC - MTP mode.

    Your drive may be connected to your computer in the title of one of the 2 separate USB MSC or MTP modes.  This is located under settings of the player.  (There is a 3rd option it, auto-detection, trying to connect under MTP mode but then fold in MSC mode, if necessary.)  Is the reason why it's important, files transferred to the Clip under a mode USB can only be seen by your computer when the computer is under this same mode.  And so, for example, if the songs are put on the player mode USB MSC, if you connect later under MTP mode, the computer will not see these files.  If you have set the player to one of the USB modes and always use this mode (MSC mode is the least problematic, in virtue of which the player is considered to be a USB key; however, MTP mode is necessary for files protected by DRM), you're fine.  If, however, you change mode, emits a "invisibility".  And if you're ready auto detection, the computer can change the modes on you without you knowing.

    And thus, better Board: turn on the player (recommended) MSC or MTP mode and stay there and stay away auto detection setting.

    And if you have been on a mode but want to switch to the other and to be able to see all of your files on your computer, set the player to the previous mode, transfer your music to your computer and delete them from the player, re - set the player to new USB mode and transfer the songs back.

    Hello

    If your laptop does not have Bluetooth built in, it is possible to install Bluetooth connectivity using an external Bluetooth USB adapter.

    If you have not, look here

  • Windows 8 cannot find the built-in webcam?

    Hello

    I bought recently are about a week, my laptop Alienware M18x. and the integrated webcam can be found.

    The first day when buying it, it worked (the webcam to take a photo of profile), but since then, he has not. My computer is running on Windows 8, so when I select the Webcam app, it says "Connect a camera."

    I also tried different ways to have my camera works (for example trying to use it on Skype and things like that), they all say that I have no webcam plugged in, when it's a built-in Web camera.
    So, how can I do so that my webcam can be found? I would like to talk to my friends on Skype with him soon!
    Thank you!

    Yes.

    Number of hours of frustration later!

  • I upgraded my computer, the new operating system on a new hard drive. Want to get my favorites on Firefox off my old drive, but can't find the file.

    I upgraded my computer, adding a second hard disk for a new operating system and kept the old drive as a data disc. I assumed that I could install Firefox on the new disk and import my favorites from the old installation of Mozilla on the old disk. I can't find the files on the old drive with my favorites. They're still here, or when I reinstalled Firefox, I lost everything even if it was on another drive? I can't find the backup on the old disk files and want to restore my old favorites. Is it possible to do this?

    You must find your profile folder in the old drive, the way in which must be:

    1. First display the hidden files and folders:

    2. Then go to:
      • < old drive >: \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles \Users\ < username >
    3. Enter in your profile, and then enter the folder bookmarkbackups .
    4. Copy the latest file from json (backup of bookmarks)
    5. Then restore from them:
