I have YM ver:5,5,0,1228. For some reasons, I can see other webcams but mine will not show up on their computer. I get “No webcam was found” or “Camera not connected” . Most of the time I get a black screen on mywebcam viewer. Sometimes if I click broadcast several time , I can see my webcam, but others do not. My webcam works fine with MSN. Does anyone have the same problem and a solution. I have re-installed Ym with no change. I run window millenium. thanks.
There is a known issue with Yahoo! Messenger 5.5 and webcams. You can view the webcams of other anyone running either version 5.5 or also earlier versions… BUT… people running earlier versions will not be able to see your webcam. In order for them to see your webcam, they also have to be running version 5.5.
For best webcam compatibility, you can run an earlier version, or encourage your friends to upgrade.
