Webcam help

[albany47]

Just got a Presario CQ56 Notebook and want to use the webcam.  The computer has a built-in webcam and when i click on it, it says to turn the camera on.  I have looked everywhere and do not know how to turn the camera on.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Can you post the exact Model number of your notebook and the current operating system it is running on?

Does anyone know how to take a picture with the built-in webcam in a laptop?

If you have QuickPlay, you can go to the webcam through that software and click the option that says snapshot image. It has an icon that looks like a camera. The picture should be saved in the list in the QuickPlay menu.
