Hi nselva,

There are several reasons why the integrated camera in your laptop is not working. Let me give you the most common reasons why and the necessary troubleshooting to fix the issue. You may want to try the steps below:

1. Webcam is disabled - To enable, press Fn + Esc. A camera icon will appear at the bottom right side of your screen. You might see another icon which is a camera with a slash at the middle this means camera has been disabled.

2. Webcam Software - Kindly check if you have the software for webcam installed in your PC. Software is YOU CAM. It might need to be reinstalled on the system. You may get the You Cam software from this link. Just look for Software and then choose You Cam which is compatible to your OS. Download it to your PC and install it.

3. Webcam Driver - Check if you have webcam driver in Device Manager. If there's none you can get the driver on the same link where the You Cam is. All you have to look for is Camera. Select the driver that's compatible to your OS. If there's already an existing camera driver it's also advisable to uninstall it and install the driver that you can get from the website.

If still camera will not work after doing the steps above you will need to contact Lenovo since this is already a hardware issue. Camera needs replacement.

Hope it helps.

Thank you for using Fixya.

Latest Questions
Are flagship devices always the best mobiles in a brand's lineup?
Flagship literally means the flag bearing device, meaning the cream of the lineup with best features available. However, that does not make it the best device in the entire lineup as a lot of factors come into play. While it may be the best performance wise, it may not make sense to many from value for moneyperspective. So, the best mobile in any brand's lineup will be the one that would perfectly meet your requirements, it may or may not be the flagship. But, if budget is not an issue and you're a big fan of a brand, you should go for its flagship. All said, flagships certainly push the time to replace your phone too far (if you're a ********* mobile user). But again, you need a phone, not a jet pack. As an average user, you need photos of your friends and family or record exciting moments of your life. An average smartphone camera is enough to handle that. Professional cameras are there to take care of the rest. The same applies to your other needs. Keep your data in the cloud, why you have to carry a 1 TB storage in your pocket all the time. You don't need iMAX, a Full HD screenis enough. The gap between mid-range and premium phones is reducing with time.
Which is the best mobile for me?
KillerFeatures is designed to help you find the best phone as per your budget. You can either use the Phone Finder tool to find your new phoneor simply search as per your budget from top search. On any search page, you can filter down the results by selecting your price range and features. Further, you can sort the results by key features like performance, camera, battery, screen, user ratings, RAM and more. Simply select the phone that suits your requirements. But make sure to check the reviews in detail as it gives first hand feedback of a phone.
I want the best mobile in the market, how do I go about it?
The starting point should be your budget. If budget is not an issue, you can opt for any of the best flagship mobile from premium brand like Samsung, Apple, Google, HTCor OnePlus. However, it's best to understand your preferences and select the handset that best matches your requirements. To start with, you have to decide how much are you willing to spend on a smartphone thus narrowing down the choices. Next step is to determine whether you will be using it just to be active on social media and light gaming or you will be doing almost everything on it with excessive multimedia and gaming. Having decided these two factors, you can see clearly what features you would want to have and zero in on a perfect device.
I am a heavy user looking to buy a good performance mobile. Which features are must in a top mobile?
Make sure to find answers to these before you decide: how long it can stay charged (battery), how long it takes to charge ( quick charging feature), which screen size is comfortable to use - whether I'm mostly a single hand user or use both hands (display size, high PPI), are movies on my mind (VR Compatibility), loves to shoot frequently (OIS, Selfie camera), good processing power for multitasking (2- 3GB RAM, Snapdragon SOC) and OS (Android / iOS).

Lenovo laptop sparks when charger is plugged in

Normally this should never happen. There is definitely something wrong with your laptop charger. You should stop using it. You can purchase replacement from stores such as ebay, amazon, google shopping, and etc. They are the cheapest compared to the your laptop brand's company. However, their prices and policies also vary greatly.

Personally, I would suggest buying from chargerbuy.com

According to your laptop model, you may search the correct replacement lenovo charger from the following link:
http://www.chargerbuy.com/laptop-ac-adapter/ibm-ac-adapters.html


This is where I bought my laptop charger sometime ago, and it is still working fine. Although their price is in the mid-range compare to the places I listed above, the price is much less than the original brand.
Moreover, this reasonable price comes with a year warranty. You should really take this website into consideration before purchasing. Their warranty and policy are very clear.

Hope this helps! Best of luck!

Brand new lenovo 3000 G30 freezes in hibernate and sleep modes

Hi,
I'm not sure how the retail law works in your country but you have to take the computer back to Office Depot and demand your money back, don't bother trying to fix the computer.
If you have bought the computer within the last 7 days then I'm sure you are entitled to a full refund.
If you have bought the computer as refurbished then it may be more difficult to get a refund, you will have to check store policy first before approaching them.
Threaten them with the law if you have to. They say that Lenovo won't take it back? usually when you purchase a brand new laptop computer you are covered by at least 1 year's manufacturers warranty.
How come there is none on the laptop you have got.
I'm sure if you push hard enough you will get a refund, if you do, go elsewhere for a another laptop.


Regards.

My kodak c813 digital camera will not turn on

I bought this model several months ago and it was working great up until Christmas time.  For some reason it just stopped working.  I couldn't get it to turn on OR sometimes it would turn on after several attempts.  I kept changing the batteries and sometimes that would work, but it was more or less random successes.  I found this link on FixYa : http://wwwuk.kodak.com/global/en/service/batteries/batteryDigCamChart.jhtml?camera=C813
I was using generic batteries (Philips) which I bought in bulk from a discount tech store and these batteries were working in the camera since I bought it.  The batteries were new; just generic.  By coincidence I ended up buying KODAK branded alkaline batteries from the same store.  I replaced the older generic ones with the KODAK batteries and the camera came back to life!  I'll leave it off for a day and see if it turns on tomorrow.
