Satellite P300D-110 integrated webcam does not work properly.

Hi all

as the title suggests, the webcam built-in in my Toshiba Satellite P300D-110 does not work correctly. Allow me to explain. Using the camera Assistance software I can take pictures and record music. If I try to record a video preview screen comes black and the end result on black, pitch black aswell tuns.

Whenever I try to use my camera with applications such as MSN Live Messenger, Skype or on community websites, using Firefox, Internet Explorer or Safari the app crashes.

* How what happened? *

You tell me. That's how it happened;
* 1st day: I booted up my laptop and looked at my installation fresh and clean Windows vista Home premium. I tried my webcam using the webcam support software and it worked like a charm.
* Day 2: once I start my laptop and try to start my webcam only to find out that he is no longer functions.
To give a quick summary of the thread;

Help of camera Assistance software provided by Toshiba, can I take pictures.
Help of camera Assistance software provided by Toshiba, I can record the sound.
Using camera Assistance software provided by Toshiba I can _ * NOT * _ save or preview of a video.
* I can't start my camera using any other application such as, but not limited to; MSN Live Messenger, Skype, Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safar.
* I downloaded and isntalled the latest drivers on the Toshiba site.
Portable listen is on a weekday.

I'm not sure what more I can do, all I want is for the webcam works, if someone can help me please do.
And if possible WITHOUT having to reinstall Windows Vista Home Premium.
I have not yet used and would not do as a solution to all the problems that might occur in the future.

Sincerely,

a sad customer.

Camera Assistance software using provided by Toshiba I can't save or preview of a video.
Can you please describe the steps how you try to do this? I have to ask you this question because it works fine on my laptop. When the recording is finished Player opens and you can see saved the film. This is the avi format and at the top of this player, you can see the path where the film is recorded.

Strangest thing for me, is that you can not use it with Skype. OK for MSN is not perfect, but there is absolutely no problem with Skype. Make sure the settings and it should work somehow.

  • Satellite L500D - integrated webcam does not work properly

    Hello world

    I have a L500D (I got it for about 2 months now) and yesterday I realized that my webcam did not work properly even if it worked just fine a couple of days.

    Here's the problem: when I turn it on (via Skype or through application of camera web toshiba), the colors are reversed: it's exactly like I had added an effect on the image as 'Posterize' or 'threshold '. Everything is bright, grainy, saturated...

    I tried in low light and high, and the night mode is not on.
    I couldn't solve the problem with the webcam settings, but regardless, I, can not do anywhere near a normal image.

    I spent a lot of time surfing the web but couldn't find a solution (or someone with a similar problem, in fact). I have windows 7 64 bit.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. I run my laptop with a lot of care, which makes even more beat when something goes wrong... Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    The question of the internal webcam can be resolved by installing the update from Ms.
    The Vista SP1 also provides the necessary MS fix and it is advisable to install it too.

    I found this document Toshiba which describes this problem and brings you the solution.

  • Now satellite A500-1GL - integrated webcam does not work

    Hi all

    I had a corrupted hard drive, replace a mounted at this point. But the Web cam software is not the case to be seen.

    I used the search function but I can't find anything.

    Please can someone advise me if I can get the software needed to make it work again? Webcam is necessary for the job and I would rather get an external, when the webcam is integrated.

    Thanks in advance guys, please ask any questions you need on that.

    Creigo

    Hello Creigo

    Usually after replacing HARD drive as a whole OS must be installed so I put t understand what you did exactly.
    If you installed the original recovery image that you got with your webcam for laptop software must be there. If not you can download it from the download page of Toshiba - http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

    Check it out.
    If you need assistance more let us know.

    Hey amaury Muñoz.

    Welcome to Microsoft Answers Forum.

    1. can you please tell us the model number of your computer?

    2. is there a built in webcam or what is the model of your webcam?

    Can you please give us a little more detail on what is the specific error you get when you try to use the webcam?

    Check if you have the drivers installed for your webcam.

    As you say that it is a Dell computer, you will need to go on the http://support.dell.com website to download the driver of your webcam installed.

    Click on support and drivers.

    On the next page, it asks your name and your number.

    Select the exact model of your laptop.

    This will bring up the option to select your operating system. Choose Windows Vista or Windows Vista 64-bit.

    A webcam installed usually appears under the software - multimedia, but it may be different for your model.

    You can choose to install now or download. Once it is downloaded and installed, then test again to see if your integrated webcam works.

    You can also contact Dell for support, since this is a brand new computer. Here is a link to Dell's Support page options:

  • Satellite P25-S520 - DVD player does not work properly

    Difficulty of DVD player or buy the external drive

    My DVD player does not work properly, in fact it can never work properly. Recently, I tried to back up my PC on a DVD using Norton 360. Norton did not recognize that the DVD was present. Then I tried to write a text file on a DVD and was a failure. DVD + R and DVD-R media were found to be (Maxwell 16 X).

    I could have probably lived with this however, I received a copy of Dragon NaturallySpeaking version 10 on a CD and my Toshiba would not recognize it. I tried the CD in my laptop nearby and it was recognized.

    An attempt to update the driver has also fails.

    I was able to copy a CD of music last night so that at least works properly.

    Does anyone know how can I fix? The important part is to be able to load my new program.

    Research on some forums I found that other people have had problems with the Pioneer drive. If the drive can't be fixed, I'm not adverse to buying an external DVD drive. Unfortunately, where I live there is no brick and mortar stores selling external drives and I prefer to avoid the hassle of getting a drive online and discovering that it does not work with my Toshiba. Can someone suggest an external USB drive that will read and write CD and DVD and is certain to be compatible with my Toshiba?

    Thanks for any help,

    Any external USB CD/DVD drive will be compatible with your laptop.

    However, you won't be able to boot from CD (run recovery for example) If you are using an external drive.

    So, your best option would be to replace the internal drive with a Toshiba drive designed for the laptop. Call an ASP and request a quote.

    Given that the problem started after installing the windows updates, you can check the updates of windows for optional updates for the webcam.

    For more information, see the article:

  • Chicony webcam on Satellite Pro P200 1.3 does not work properly

    This built-in Chicony webcam is slowly driving me insane.

    Sometimes it works (not since last week though). Usually, I get a message saying it is locked by another application - or it does not exist. Now, I can not even friends view webcams.

    The cam is displayed on my screen and seems perfect, but no one can see me! When I try to view the cam of friends, I am told that it is not connected.

    Now, I checked my device manager and it is not yet installed-just disappeared! I have recommended download driver Toshiba Europe (camsoft-2007081...), uncompressed, ran it, restarted, but apparently my laptop does not detect the webcam - even if a blue light flashes!

    Please get out me of my misery... someone!

    Thank you, thank you, gratias, go raibh mile, etc., etc.

    I read that sometimes the internal TV tuner would block the internal webcam and so this error message.
    But as far as I know this laptop was not equipped the internal TV tuner, and therefore, this possibility is not relevant.

    Always is it that any application locks the webcam software. In case you would you recommend to go the msconfig and disable first the webcam services that run in the background. Then turn it back on.

    In most cases, this helps!
    By the way; I noticed this problem only with yahoo messenger and ms. Skype works ok!

  • Satellite S50-B-12R - Webcam does not work

    I bought my toshiba Satellite S50-B-12R this Saturday but the moment where I couldn't use my webcam.

    I looked everywhere for my webcam drivers, but I can't find them.
    Also when I look in my configuration window there not a webcam.

    But once my webcam was working, I was on Skype and it detected my webcam so I used it and then when I tried to use it later it has not been detected more.

    So I would like to know if there are any missing drivers or maybe the webcam is not properly connected inside the unit. And what I need to do to be able to use my webcam

    Welcome,

    Robby

    First laptop was already preloaded with Toshiba picture and all the drivers and software have been installed too.
    That's why driver extra installation isn t necessary.

    Secondly, preinstalled Win 8.1 system contains the driver for the webcam. The driver is designed by Microsoft and part of the system.

    The 8.1 win provides a webcam application that you might find on the surface of 8.1 to win.
    But before using the application, you must add the webcam access and change privacy settings.

    Charm-> Open bar (Win key + C)-> settings-> permissions enable webcam & microphone

    Now close and reopen the webcam app. You should have your camera app works fine now
