My Windows 8 webcam does not work on my Lenovo laptop

I use it on the camera app, which is the only thing I've ever tried on. I tried redownloading the app and my computer is fully updated. Still, when I go to my camera, looks like it broke, the thing is, it should not be broken. Its has got horizontal lines on the screen and they are all purple and pink color. I've only had a few weeks it's one yoga with an i5 processor, other than the camera to the laptop, there is no problem with the computer. I was very careful with the laptop and I don't know how he could have broken if that's the problem, I looked closely at the camera and it doesn't seem to be any cracks in it, drank, which does not mean necessarily it does not exist.

I've used it before and it worked perfectly well, which was the first day I got it. I did these steps you said and it came up saying it has been already updated, but, I just got another photo app and it worked fine, then I went to check out the old camera app, and it also worked well. I don't know what happened, but somewhere along the way he has set.

    I could find a Vista driver and installed, have Aero + photos on the desktop, but my webcam does not work on msn messenger and this is the only way for me to see my family.

    Thanks for your help

    Hello

    I m a bit confused; you have some problems with the graphics card or with the webcam?

    I assume you mean on external webcam connected to the USB port? Right?
    What happens if you connect the webcam to the laptop? Can win 7 recognize the device? Have you installed additional drivers for this webcam?
    Most of the time it s necessary to do so because I think that it s not Plug & Play device.

  • Integrated on my Satellite T130 webcam does not work

    Hi all

    the built-in on my Satellite T130 webcam does not work.

    I use Windows 7 Home Premium and already reinstalled the drivers of webcam 64-bit through this Web site. However, when I click on the webcam application, simply, nothing happens - program doesn't open at all or turn off instantly. Skype is not also acknowledge a cam. In addition, there is no webcam in Device Manager (a not detected USB device however) and no symbol of cam in the Ribbon of Toshiba quicklaunch, which is like the camera is started according to the "manual".

    Someone has an idea what is the problem? Looks like a common problem according to Google, but no suggestions other than to reinstall the drivers. Perhaps another application blocking the camera? Firewall settings?

    I'd appreciate any help, thank you.

    Best regards Florian

    > a USB not detected if

    Maybe it's the webcam from the webcam is connected to the internal USB controller on the motherboard.

    It looks like a webcam driver is not installed correctly.
    Try the webcam driver released for the satellite t230 or other series of satellites.
    Versions are newer

    Also recommend that you check the BIOS settings.
    In some cases, the BIOS contains a webcam option where the webcam can be turned on and off.

  • Satellite A660 - Webcam does not work when using Skype

    I recently bought a Satellite A660-15J. I am running Windows 7 64 bit.

    I have the latest version of Skype (5.3.0.111).

    The integrated Webcam does not work when you run Skype. If I run the Toshiba Web Camera Application the webcam works fine. However, when I test it in Skype, I get a message saying "cannot start video. Try quitting other programs that use the webcam '.

    However, as far as I can tell there no other programs available. I have tried Skype with the Web Camera Application clised & open. I also confirmed that I do run the latest version of the program.

    One of the main reasons we have this laptop is to use Skype video... Help, please.

    Disable webcam application start-up and exit this application before you start Skype.

    I used Skype many different models of laptops, including friends A660 and it worked correctly.

    When you open Skype video settings is listed as default camera USB webcam?

  • Webcam does not work on my Satellite L850

    Hello

    My webcam does not work.
    I need your help!

    In my opinion, I tried all possible.

    -Satellite L850 11Q
    -Windows 7 all updates
    -webcam installed Toshiba driver/application
    -any other webcam software
    -no entry in the Device Manger/windows webcam

    What can I do?

    Hello

    Have you installed another Win 7 on this laptop or are you using the system preinstalled by Toshiba?

    If the webcam is not listed in the device, as an unknown device, or as a Device Manager to imagine, then that would mean that the material was not recognized by the system, that means that there is a connection hurt tight between the webcam and the motherboard or the webcam is defective.

    If it worked in the past?

    Also check the settings in the BIOS, in many cases the webcam can be enabled / disabled in the BIOS.

    You can try to install the CAM such as ManyCams software - http://www.manycam.com/
