Skype

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!!!

Somehow I have deactivated my inbuilt webcam for Skype :roll: Should have asked the guy at Office works what he did when he activated it for me- I know he only hit about 2 keys but did not ask which ones. Any suggestions pretty please :?: :?:

To activate deactivate the video camera in Skype:
Click on Tools, Options, General

I have set it to 'no one' - cause I don't like it...

If you have deactivated the video camera altogether, I don;t have an answer.

Have you looked up the instruction manual for your computer ?

If you don't have one you should be able to find one via google.

Back online as is Skype.
Fortunately where we are in Bundaberg their IT son was home - he fiddled with my computer & after about 30 mins he found the problem after trying to find the driver-all over my head! Did a download & hey presto working.
