    Hello
    If Facebook does not recognize your webcam right away when you want to share a video, click on the eye for cameras new button.

    Your Adobe Flash Player settings will be displayed.
    On the tab, make sure you only select the right type of camera you use with your computer.

    On the tab, you may also need to 'allow' Facebook to access your camera and microphone.

    If your settings does not work, try to uninstall Adobe Flash Player on your computer and download the latest Flash Player.

  • I have a new laptop and my integrated webcam does not work

    I need to get help fixing it. It's a brand new computer and the webcam does not work. When I try to access the program, it said that I need to plug a camera

    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 A300-1NO - webcam does not work, but the LED lights

    Hello!

    I have a laptop Satellite A300-1NO, with Win 7 installed. My problem is that my webcam does not work always, when I want to use it. Sometimes, it works perfectly in Skype, WLM etc... but sometimes I see a white or a black screen with a 'loading circle' in there. Blue is the LED light, I can see it in Device Manager too, but there is no picture, just 'loading '. I tried to uninstall the driver and then reinstall it, I installed the new "camera Assistant for Toshiba", without success.

    Is there any solution for this?

    > Is there any solution for this?
    I put t think there is solution for this. If I understand you right there is a problem with software pre-installed. It is not easy to say why this is happening.

    I have Satellite A300 too and use it with Win7 32 bit. Webcam works fine all the time.

    One more thing: have you noticed this problem in the first moments after installing Win7 or later?
    Have you installed something that may be the reason for this?
