Satellite A660-12E - Webcam not working only not with Skype

Hello

When you use the camera directly integrated on the satellite, it works pretty well. When you try to use it with Skype, all I get is the heart full screen. I tried different settings, but nothing happens. Therefore, I use a logitech webcam while searching for a solution.

Anyone know how to configure it to work with Skype?

Thanks in advance,

Fauvette71

Hey Buddy,

I've never heard of this problem you can post a screenshot?

Well, I think if the problem works with Camera Assistant Software, it s a problem with Skype. So, check the configuration of webcam for Skype and make sure that you use the latest version of Skype.

  • Satellite A660 - screen does not work

    I have a Satellite A660 and when not hooked to an external monitor or TV, the laptop screen is white and you can't use it.
    The only way I can use the laptop and being able to see the screen is if I connect the laptop to the TV via a HDMI cable and use it like that.
    The laptop is less then 6 months and is rarely taken at our office in our office.

    I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem or knows what it can be.

    If this is not the case, how I had to do to someone qualified by toshiba for have a look that would be a problem of guarantee being under 6 months old.

    > I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem or knows what it can be.

    Have you tried to use the FN + F5 to switch between the internal and external screen?
    Try this.

    If that does not help, then I would recommend contact the ASP in your country, because security must still be valid (as you posted it above).
    I think that the internal display is faulty, because the output of the video work, which means that this graphics card should be ok.

  • Satellite A660 - Touchpad does not

  • Satellite M200 - Chicony webcam not compatible with Skype

    Greetings!

    I have a Satellite M200 series and my Webcam Chicony works very well with YM. When I tried to use it on Skype, he'll tell me that "Skype has not found video source preferred. Webcam can be used in another application. Then I tried to move to the tools in Skype and checked the video settings, I changed the cam of default for a Chicony USB 2.0, still the same error message. The next thing I did was open the software assistant camera, but by clicking on the buttons will do nothing. I can open the device itself. So, I updated the device driver in Device Manager and the result is that I had the best and the last driver installed. Still not working in Skype.

    Any suggestions? I'll be very grateful for any help. Thank you.

    Hello

    I think that Skype is one of the best applications to work with the webcam. I use it on the first day of purchase and there is no problem at all.
    What you can do is to restart your laptop, switch-webcam help software, start the Skype and try to configure the webcam in Skype settings again.

    He has to work. It works on my Satellite P200 and my Satellite U400 friends. He has to work in your case too.

  • Satellite A660 boots up to the black screen with blinking cursor not upper left

    My new Satellite A660-10W sometimes (not always), when turned on, boots up to a black screen with a flashing cursor in the top left. If I stop by pressing the power button, it stops immediately. I then wait a few seconds and press the power button again and then it usually starts very well.

    Could it be updated during this process and I'll be more patient (usually wait a few minutes) before shutting down when this happens?

    Usually something like that shouldn't happen. Satellite A660 is no different from all the other models and OS must be loaded shortly after Toshiba welcome screen appears.
    Do you use your laptop with factory settings or you have changed something?

  • Resolution + on Satellite A660-10W - finally it works

    My son has been abandoned, but I have not finished his comments.
    I would like you to know that most of the A660 is not installed with a player of DVD from Toshiba and therefore the resolution + does not work.
    Who would have thought that Toshiba do advertising resolution + but not install their own Toshiba DVD player?

    I want to thank all those who helped me, and helped to try to help me, even though ultimately I had to get technical help from the Enduser EMEA complaint team
    due to my initial complaint that my laptop Satellite A660-10W did not carry the resolution +.

    However, I must say that comments like the following comments on the resolution + do no justice to Toshiba and were very helpful:
    1. first its nothing special and the second is not the end of the world if you don't have it on your laptop
    2. you can see the only thing it's done colors watch grow up, not huge improvement and I am sure that there are many programs that offer the same or similar thing.
    3. have u even seen photos I posted? If you knew that ud is not much of an improvement

    All made by the same person.
    After you have installed a completely new version of Toshiba DVD Player with resolution + I can't understand you enough what a technology is wonderful. It made old DVD until almost the HD quality and I can testify that it is excellent and I am very glad that I persisted and he did not listen.

    Thank you

  • Satellite L300-215 - Webcam not working not

    The webcam on my Satellite L300-215 did not work because I downloaded the new software of Toshiba months ago.
    The Chicony webcam is not yet recognized, and it will not install the Toshiba software.

    Two hours with Toshiba technical staff, including their having access remote to my computer, does not solve the problem.
    It seems that this is a very common problem and I tried some of the suggestions on the assignments, but without result.

    Anyone out there have the answer?

    I have two laptops Toshiba, Satellite P200D and Satellite A300, both with webcam and everything works fine. I agree therefore with statement on the very common problem.
    Webcam works well if your laptop is preinstalled with recovery image Toshiba (factory settings)?

  • LifeCam Hd 3000 not working only not with Skype

    Hi all

    As the subject says, I have problems with my webcam and Skype.

    Bought this webcam 2 weeks it installed and worked without any problems on Skype and the lifecams application.

    1 week later webcam stops working for no apparent reason. Google and looked at archive forum here and down as suggested.

    Uninstalled and reinstalled the program several times trying different USB ports

    Tried Skype versions (back at the latest)

    Made sure cam mic has been activated gives me a bit of success, but not much.

    When I go into options for recoding and adjust the microphone of HD webcams as 'default' the camera works in the Lifecam program, however if I put my headset by default then the lifecam program tells me 'there is no camera connected to this computer.

    If I use OBS in flow with my headset, by default the cam works without any problem and my audio doesn't work with headphones also no problem.

    So now that it's Skype, if yes or not I change the video etc. pickups options with no view my cam and no one else can see me on all the video calls that I make.

    Any ideas whats causing this problem?

  • Satellite A660-12E - freezes with graphical objects

    Hello

    Here's my problem:

    I bought a Satellite A660-12th. Was obtained last Saturday, transported with great caution.

    The problem is that when I use a program dependent CG as a game, the games freezes quickly, even in the menus, with the screen objects, symptom of failure of CG (that happened in the menus of TF2, alien swarm and all playing Plain SIght). When Windows (with aero and transparency), goes on the internet, watching movies, everything is ok. No problem when using 3DSmax and Mudbox, but does not check since the last time the problem happened.
    In addition, the problem does not occur the first time that I start a game. After a long series of the computer (I use a cooling station and check the temperature: never more than 55 ° c) to download a game on steam, for example.

    I tried to install my own version of windows 7 (64 bit professional), updated the cg driver, installed a selection of programs from ninite.com, but the problem is back.

    Since then, I am a student with low resources and worked all summer to get a laptop, I am a little upset. :/
    Anyone has a solution, or should I contact the customer as soon as possible?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Can you explain what CG and CG pilot mean, please?

    I can only tell you that it is important to use the original display driver Toshiba place drivers nVidia because they are pre-tested and overheating protection. So be sure that Toshiba display the most recent driver is installed.

    Hey Buddy,

    I m not a Linux expert, but generally this Linux live CD can t be installed. You can start only to CD or a USB key because they don t write anything on the HARD drive. So I think that you need a different version.

  • LifeCam VX-700 does not not with Skype.

    I just bought this webcam, and it does not seem to be recognized by Skype.
    It works very well with MS Messenger.
    It did not come with any software and I see no download of software for this device on the web site of Ms.
    I am running Windows XP which is fully updated.
    I restarted my PC that did not help.

    Hi TerryBowyer,
     

    Follow the procedure described here to activate the webcam in Skype:

    a. in the Skype main window go to the 'Tools' menu, then the Options"" menu.

    b. you can see the window options open to the left, now find "Video settings", make sure the "enable Skype video" is checked and the menu drop down called "select webcam:" choose your webcam (if it is there, otherwise you need to install).

    If this is not enough, post your request in the Forums of Skype to improve assistance.
