Useless female-me

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

Useless female-me

Post by Macca »

This morning I accidently turned my camera off (Skype) & can't remember how Office Works showed me what to do. I think he hit Fn & something else. have done that with all the numbers (one at a time!) but that has not worked. Bugger. Saw that neighbour Catriana was on line & tried to call her instead of going out in the wind- how lazy is that :roll:

Try This.
Click Start, then enter camera in the search box and you should get something like "Web Camera Application" to click on. That's what starts it for me.

Have gone into the settings etc & will not work. I am beginning to think that there is something wrong in the computer with the camera as it should turn on with Fn & F6.

While the computer is on and running, unplug the camera, then plug it back in, it should see it as new hardware and reconnect it.

Yes. It has gone into the too hard basket for the time being.
