Web Camera’s have to be
setup on the program they are to be used with.Just installing the camera on your computer does not set it up to
broadcast on messengers or Skype.
Each program has Options that have to be setup in order for
the Audio and Video to function properly.
A.Skype Setup:
After downloading and installing Skype set it up as follows:
Go to TOOLS,
then OPTIONS, and click on Audio Settings and set the
Microphone and Speakers to the computer Audio Card.
Then
click on the Video Settings.
The
camera if installed properly will come up and show a picture.
Then
on the bottom of the page click on Save.
The camera and audio should function properly.Your friends and Family will now see and
talk to you.
B.Yahoo Setup:
After downloading and installing Yahoo Messenger set
it up as follows:
Go to Messenger
at the top left and click on it.
Next
go down to Preferences and click on it.
Next Calling
and Devices on the right and set the Microphone and Speakers to
the computer Audio Card.
Next
go to the Test Audio section and(in blue writing) click on“Open the call setup assistant” and follow the instructions on the
left window.
When done both the Audio and Video will function properly so
you can chat and see family or friends you are connected to.
Hope this helps.Bud

It does not have a speakerphone. Because the phone does not have this feature I would suggest you purchase a bluetooth headset so he can wirelessly take phone calls.
It happen when you do not use your phone for a long time like 6 months or a year. some if you are using your phone for year its become dead. your phone need flashing with any NOKIA software.
You can go to the adapters website and find the drivers for it, then you can burn it on a cd or put on a usb flashdrive.
If you cant find it let me know and I will get them for you.
Thanks
