Web Cam expires on Yahoo Messenger

My wife and I bought three HP Stream 13 computers laptop with Win 8.1 and alone does not connect in Yahoo IM video.  It times out.  Internet connection is OK about 6 m on a Windstream ASDL and I can send an invitation to anyone, they can accept, but I almost always stop before accknowledgement to be returned to my laptop.  I have tried in the same room with this laptop and come out the same time about 70% of the time.  Others also expire before I never pass on a message to open webcam.  The problem seems to be on my laptop only.  Drivers are updated.  Occasionally, I am able to connect, but usually not.  I checked all the plugins and on-screen ads that I can.

I've always suspected that the problem is Yahoo and not HP.  I just hoped that a similar problem had been observed and that a solution had been found.  Thank you for responding.

  • Cannot load Yahoo messenger no matter how trying?

    I have Yahoo mail and yahoo messenger as a separate charge on my Start menu. I tried every way so he could add it on, or load with Mozilla Firefox, but outside to have the 'groovy' notes & this background image terribly stupid & obstructive, for Yahoo mail, nothing will be displayed on Mozilla, on Messenger or trying to load? I should resign me to always separately load YM?

    Roydavid,
    I'm really not sure because I do not use the extensions you have installed. Do disable this contributes to the loss of functionality in the site Web of Yahoo?

    The best way to know is to try to open Firefox with a new profile:

  • Satellite A200 - Chicony Webcam with Yahoo messenger

    I have a Toshiba A200-PSAE0E with Windows Vista Home Premium. My built-in Webcam (Chicony USB 2.0, 1.3MP camera) worked very well with all applications including Yahoo Messenger.

    The driver is installed fine and support both camera software.

    I installed Office 2003, and it is the only change that I made on the software.

    My Webcam now works with Camera Assistant software, but not in Yahoo Messenger.

    While I checked in the Yahoo help for the needs of webcam it clearly says the color scheme / Compression should have the format RGB, I420, or IYUV, which I did not, instead I YUY2.

    How come my Webcam with Yahoo messenger access.

    > I have a Toshiba A200-PSAE0E with Windows Vista Home Premium. My built-in Webcam (Chicony USB 2.0, 1.3MP camera) worked very well with all applications including Yahoo Messenger.

    I think you don't need all the new drivers, because you already said the webcam worked fine using the original installed drivers.
    I don't know exactly why it is not possible to use it with Yahoo messenger after installation of Microsoft Office 2003, but I think that there are some confused system or drivers files.
    But to be honest, this seems very strange and I can't believe that the Office 2003 could have a bad influence on the webcam?  :|

    Eventually, you will need to reinstall the operating system or should try to restore the operating system to the previous system to check if it helps to solve this problem.
    That's all I can suggest.

    It's old, but I think it still works: Yahoo! Messenger 3.0.2. Also check the Mac App Store.

    How to safely use MacUpdate to download malicious software free software: *

    This site has both free and paid members accounts. If you don't have then some software will be distributed in a wrapper for an installation that includes adware/malware, you can not. Such a download may appear on your computer as follows: Firefox installer.dmg. Remove the download and return to the main site where you will find a direct link to the Web site. Use this link to download the software.

    To avoid these downloads to MU simply create a free membership account. Sign in to your account before using the site. You can avoid the wrappers of the installer and download of adware or malware. I continue to use their site without any problems.

    If you prefer not to create a membership account and note that on the download page under the price area will be the link to the developer site. Use this link and download the software directly from the developer work around the use of MU altogether.

  • Satellite A200-J01: problems with Chicony webcam with Yahoo messenger and MSN

    Dear friends

    I just bought a Satellite A200-J01 with Windows Vista Edition Home Premium pre-installed on it. My problem is when I want to use my webcam (Chicony USB built-in 2.00) to have a video call with MSN and Yahoo messenger Internet, suddenly, it stops working and it shows a message that the webcam is not connected and no webcam was found on your computer.

    And then when I log out Yahoo messenger, come out of her and run Camera Assistant Software it shows this message "Locked by another application" Although there is no other applications running.

    The problem remains, unless I restart the computer. I read all the topics and messages as in my case in this site, but none of them helped me. I want to know if someone has encountered this problem, if this chicony webcam is compatible with yahoo and msn messenger and finally what I can do about it.

    Hello

    What about software chicory and the driver update?
    Please check if the software most recent is available and has been released. If so, remove it the old an and after reboot the new install the most recent version of this software chicony.

    It seems that similar problems appear on laptops from different manufacturers that use the Chicony webcam.
    Everything looks like the chicony Vista software is not 100% compatible with MSN, yahoo Messenger, Skype etc programs.

    I used my computer mainly to home bussiness and search. I am wanting to reach out now with the use of my webcam that is built into my laptop, I have never used this feature and don't know even how to enable or disable the web cam. I have a problem to find the answer using windows based on knowledge, should somone please tell me? I think I'll be ok with communication programs I have.

  • USB 20.0 M pixels 6 LED Webcam Web Cam does not?

    Recently I bought this webcam for my laptop, 20.0 MEGA pixel 6 LED Webcam Web Cam camera computer. In fact, I bought two one for me and one for my son and have not been able to get them to function. When I plug the usb and microphone cable, it tells that the new hardware has been found and it is to install the software of the new device. It complements and says device is ready to be used, but the camera does not work. The microphone works without problem, I tried reistalling the device a couple of times and in different ways without success. I tried unisnstalling, resettlement, adding hardware, etc.
    The camera stands out in Device Manager as a camera USB 2.0 in imaging equipment and records of cable into the USB as a Composite USB.
    Does anyone have ideas to make the camera work? I would really appreciate it!
    Running Windows Vista thanks

    Thank you Robert Charney

    Hello

    If the webcam appears in Device Manager, idon't think that you will need special software for the cable.

    You could try the cam with Live Messenger.

    If it fails, you can get an error message more information.
