How can i get the video to not be black when trying to video chat?

I would check for updates for you Java and you Adobe Flash Player. This could easily prevent you from seeing content that requires updated software. It is free from each of the sites.

How many people are saying that you are in black and night? It might be that it's there computer that's having an issue or the lighting in the area where you are chatting from is dark.

GOOD LUCK AND PLS RATE THIS POST!!!!!

You can use free video chat software such as Skype:

http://www.skype.com

The problem sounds like it is not with the hardware or software - You are able to take pictures indicating the device is on and working.

The problem appears to be with the associated programmes such as Skype, Yahoo. You need to select on of the video chat programmes and select the webcam you choose to work with it.

In any of the video chat you will find it is in options/ settings/ video

try to go to preferences in yahoo and select webcam tab and select you're webcam. maybe you have another image device selected instead of the webcam.
