Hi there thanks for asking, there are several things you can do to identify and solve the problem. You should plug the webcam into another USB port and start the webcam if it does not work then simply install the driver for the webcam into another computer and connect the webcam to that computer to see if it will work.If it work you should uninstall are reinstall the drivers from your computer and check the setting to make sure they are correct, if does not work then your webcam is faulty. Thank you

Feedback is caused by a loop between the microphone and speakers. You can try to turn your volume down. If not then tell the other person to move their mic away from their speakers

I don't have a solution, I have the same problem and can't figure out how to correct it!

HI,

You might want to try downloading and installing the windows vista drivers for this webcam from the below link:

http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/435/269&hub=1&cl=roeu,en?section=downloads&bit=&osid=13

Thank you for using fixya.

You can download new Logitech Webcam driver from this site.

• Logitech Webcam

Logitech ?

http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/405/&cl=us,en?prodcrid=405

Click on your cam from the gallery to navigate to the support page for your model

You may be in Yahoo Messenger and operating below the necessary bandwidth for webcam transmissions. Both use the 'small image' for transmitting
Check your settings
Test your webcam here to make sure it broadcasts ok - Hit 'Allow' in the top window and check your cam in the left hand panel.

http://www.testmycam.com/

Having proved your cam is working ,you can configure it to Yahoo Messenger.
COMPATIBILITY WITH YAHOO MESSENGER
Use Internet Explorer to visit this page to check compatibility and automatically download the latest webcam control

http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/messenger/messenger10/webcam/mstacamtest.html

CONFIGURE SOFTWARE
Its good practice to disconnect and re-connect your webcam before you start - if you have been using it elsewhere the Yahoo software may have difficulty in locating it. Mine, I just unplug it from the USB and plug it back in, if yours is integral with the computer you will have to re-start the computer, use a keyboard shortcut or disable / enable the webcam from the Device Manager.
Of all the chat programs, Yahoo is the most painful software to set up but if you follow these instructions you should be ok.

INTERNET CONNECTION
Webcam connected
Open messenger - on top toolbar. Left click ( > ) Messenger > Preferences > Connection - Select 'no proxies' or 'connect direct to the internet' depending on the version of messenger you have
make sure your internet connection and country are correct in the lower two boxes > Apply > OK

TESTING
> Messenger > My webcam - the warning panel will launch, click 'OK' and your webcam will start. You should be rewarded at this stage with your happy smiling face.

SET WEBCAM DEFAULT
With webcam still running > Messenger > Preferences > Webcam > Camera Source - set your webcam as default using dropbox. > Camera Settings - adjust settings to suit. > Apply > OK
Take a note of any additional software, if you have multiple choice for Camera Source, you may wish to uninstall any redundant webcam software later to prevent conflicts

PERMISSION OPTIONS
> Messenger > Preferences > Webcam - make your selections ( who you will allow to view you) > Apply > OK

IN USE
When you are both on line and wish to show your webcam > Actions > 'Invite to view my webcam'.
Messenger 10:- > Actions > More Actions > invite to view my webcam. This will launch an invitation on your contacts screen when they 'Accept' your webcam broadcast will start- There can be considerable time lag ( +1 minute) before they see you, so don't be too impatient ( You can check the status on the bottom left of your webcam panel. You can 'drag and drop' the frame to a convenient location by grabbing the top border.

Your contacts may need to configure their connection the same as INTERNET CONNECTION above (Ignoring webcam connected) if they get a "webcam not connected" message

Sometimes you may have to broadcast the 'small image' option from the 'Webcam' menu on the top of your image frames. This happens when one of you is down on resources -its like sending a large photo by email - its quicker if you cut the size down
you can zoom up to 200% from the same menu when the webcam picture comes through

Use the 'Always on top' option - or your image will disappear when you type a message

I trust it is a USB one.

Uninstall webcam in device manager.

Download / UNPLUG webcam / install software and follow instructions.

Plug in webcam
Launch the logitech toolbar and click on the Quick Capture menu ( 2 film frames )
If its not working here - your software or hardware is a problem
Make sure the drivers are OK for your USB in the Device Manager.
Visit the Logitech website for support - Identify your cam and click on it

http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/405/&cl=us,en?prodcrid=405

Make sure skype is configured to use the webcam mic as the communitcation mic, to do this on skype goto tools then options, then audio settings and in the drop down menu's make sure you have corerect communications devices selcted and turned up. hope this helps

the reason this is happening is that your camera in not support for windows 7 it is for vista. You might try contacting logitech and see if they are going to have an update for your camera that supports windows 7
