I have a Compaq Presario CQ61 Notebook PC......WF574PA#ABG

 

Hi, I would like to ask how you take a photo, then save it to pictures folder using the webcam. I can take a photo using Skype, but can't get it to my picture folder. Do I need a program for this? If so where do I get one? Could someone please assist. Thank you in advance.

how can i take photos by webcam in my notebook ofline

Hello CHAET,

 

I see that you have questions about using your webcam when your computer is offline. If you have webcam software on your computer it will take pictures without the computer being online.

 

The YouCam program that comes with most of the newer HP models will allow you to use the webcam to take pictures.

I need to know how to take picture and video with webcam

HP Recommended

I can never EVER find my photos that i have taken, and the ONLY way i can even access the webcam is if i try to change my profile picture for google+ or Facebook... then i take a bunch, & i cannot save them... HELP!!!

Actually same prob was with my webcam. It was working fine according to device manager but I didn't know how to take pics. So the problem was that I haven't Installed Hp webcam driver. So I advise you to go to Hp official website and Install webcam driver. I'll be fine then. SO try it out. 

You're most welcome for any other querry.
