Hello

1. What is the model number of the laptop you are using?

2. do you receive error messages when you try to access the webcam?

3. you have the software for the webcam installed on your computer?

 
4 is this limited specific problem when using Webcam with Skype application or all?
 
 
Method 2: Download and install the latest drivers:

When a device is not functioning, Device Manager also typically displays an error message with an error code that comes with it. First, search for errors in the Manager of devices to do this, follow the steps below:

a. open the Device Manager by clicking the Start button, click on the Control Panel, clicking system and Maintenance, and then clicking Device Manager.

If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    If you've used windows update for drivers which was a mistake, then visit Sony support and reinstall all the drivers available.

    PC manufacturers are innovative and the drivers are specific to this machine to & the model, even more with a laptop. If Windows Update should never be used for drivers, unless the PC manufacturer said.

    There's an app to webcam on the Sony support site for your model

    If you still have problems, go back to the Sony Support and state that your two day old PC does not work and say that you need them to replace.

    You probably need to recharge the device drivers and any software control of the 'IF' camera, there is

    Login as an administrator.

    Double-click Control Panel / Device Manager - Imaging - writing down of the brand and model of camera.
    on this subject and on the tab of the driver is version. Now, click on update drivers (who are unable to do anything as MS
    is far behind the pilots of certification). RIGHT click on the camera - UNINSTALL - REBOOT - it
    will update the driver stack.

    Now, go to the system manufacturer's website and download the latest driver for the camera and the other related camera
    software (if not more recent get the same).

    Download - SAVE - go to them and RIGHT CLICK - RUN AS ADMIN - reboot after each driver.

  • Satellite M300 - Webcam is either disabled or has not

    I tried to uninstall & reinstall the driver and software of webcam, however no still no chance. It's a M300-PSMD8A-03H00G running Vista 32-bit, with a built-in webcam and I get the error message is...
    "webcam is either disabled or has failed." Please check your webcam settings. »

    The only support for this model download is an update of the BIOS with no explanation of what she updates, patches or fixes. Which is pretty ordinary to say the least.

    There seems to be a lot of people having problems with Vista service pack 2 (SP2) that killed the WIFI, but since roll back to SP1, the WIFI now works again. The webcam stopped working around the same time that the installation of SP2, however cancellation has not resolved the problem of the webcam.

    Ideas, any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    What assistant webcam software you have reinstalled exactly? I ask this question because the Web from Toshiba site presents only an update of the BIOS for Vista.
    Theoretically the laptop webcam to another software should work also on yours. Check this box!

    By the way: the BIOS would be worth a try. If the driver webcam doesn t work for you, try update BIOS!

    Just got a new Mac Book Pro, new on mac in general. Had a video to play on a Web site but didn't work not, downloaded Chrome, worked well. Then made the update to OS 10.11.6 (not), and the video does not work (it says: cannot load the Flash plug-in). Made sure plugin has been enabled in my Chrome. Tried to download Flash himself, tried to remove Chrome and Flash and download Chrome still once, nothing works. Now for some reason, it works... What is (and was) happening... Someone has an idea? THX!

    -Chrome has built in Flash.

    -Safari does not come with Flash and use Flash with Safari, you need to download and install Flash

    So this is why worked chrome and Safari worked after downloading and installing Flash. Make sure you just threw always get Flash from the Adobe website.  Once you install Flash from Adobe it has also installed a Flash preferences panel in system preferences and yo can update Flash from here
