Lifecam 6000 You had started a response to the question about the other end not seeing me. Can you assist me with this problem. I have 6000, they have 3000. I can see myself and them but they can't see me. I tried to reduce resolution but that did not help. I have windows XP. Anything you can do to help is appreciated. My email is [email protected]

The first thing to try would be to right-click on lifecam.exe and run it as administrator. If that does not resolve the problem. Then open Device manager. Start->Run-> In the run box type in devmgmt.msc and hit enter. See if the camera has been detected under imaging devices and let me know

you need to check menu and open you cam from it

Click Start
Click All Programs
Search for 'Lifecam' or 'Microsoft lifecam' and the logo should appear alongside the software
Right click on the logo and select 'Send to - desktop create shortcut'
or
>Start > Computer > Local Disk (C) > Program files > Lifecam - expand file - right click on logo and create shortcut

Hello and thank you for using Fixya's services.

Have you purchased a security system yet? How many cameras do you have to set up? Will this security system be on the web or just recorded?

Is the above model (category) correct: Microsoft LifeCam NX-6000?

I can assist further with this information.

Checkout Microsoft support - you can also download the software from here

I could not see a lifecam 600 only Lifecam NX-6000 and Lifecam VX-6000

have him reinstall the cam from scratch and see if it works.

Try re-setting up your webcam by going to Tools > Options > General > Video Settings.  Also check the cable connections from your webcam to your computer.

I have a Work-A-Round so that the end result will provide both sound and
Video using the LifeCam NX-6000 with Windows Live on a
Windows Vista ULtimate 64 bit system, please post your system if
this solution works for you.

I guessed that the error messages, the BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH, and
a long list of conflicts that I discovered with this camera shown that
the sound was conflicting with the video.

Overview
I used manycam for the video and I configured Windows Live to handle sound.
I assume that you can get it to work as long as you split the video and sound
on two different programs.

What I did
I installed the vista driver
http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/download/DownloadResult.aspx?category=ICE&type=Webcams&name=NX6000&os=WVista_32&lang=en
I installed windows live 8.1 (I did configure until after ManyCams)
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=d78f2ff1-79ea-4066-8ba0-ddbed94864fc&displaylang=en
I installed ManyCams
ManyCam Virtual Webcam 2.3.21
http://www.download.com/ManyCam-Virtual-Webcam/3000-2348_4-10593500.html

Configuration
I started ManyCams and configured it to (optionally start on boot) and to
USE LIFECAM NX-6000 as the source.
I then started Windows 8.1 Start > Tools > Audio and Video setup
and configured it to use my
(1) speakers for output sound (Realtek HD Audio) [next]
(2) Microphone Microsoft Lifecam NX-6000 [next]
(3) ManyCam Virtual Webcam [finish]

Reboot, start ManyCam and then start Windows live.

If your still having issues, you may try to disable this service and try again
using the following instructions.
start -> run -> services.msc
then go to Messenger Sharing Folders USN Journal Reader service
click on proprieties and disable it

Ok, thats is what I did and I truly hope that it helps you.

ok..what technology are you using for this?

On the one I just fixed, Skype would not even see the LifeCam. I had to go into the registry and delete the calls for the Lifecam in the run section. Open Regedit, back it up first then delete any referecne to Lifecam in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\current version\run and also HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Current Version\Run

Be careful to ONLY delete the referecnes to Lifecam. If you are nto familiar with the registry you can seriously mess up your file system.
