How to use a web cam?

Answer 1

Use with a programme like Messenger or Skype (my preferred one). follow the instructions and install the driver that comes with the webcam, then simply select as default webcam in skype and call someone up :-)

Answer 2

umm first you install it providing you have the disk for it, then you may have to restart your computer, then plug the usb cable in your computer and yeah thats mostly it.

To use it you need an instant messenger service thingy like Yahoo Messenger.

Just use your instruction manual that came with it if you need more help...

Answer 3

Hereis how to use in Yahoo Messenger:: Good Luck

Use Your Webcam in Yahoo Messenger

Step1 Head to the Yahoo home page, turn on Yahoo Messenger using the 'Messenger' link and log in using your account name and password. You'll need to create an account if you haven't done so already (see Resources below).

Step2 Click the 'Messenger' followed by the 'Start My Webcam' option. This will load your webcam, and is among the ways you can get your webcam to begin broadcasting.

Step3 Click on the camera icon that appears in a chat window while you are talking to a friend.

Step4 Click on a contact from your Contact List, then click 'Invite to View My Webcam.' This opens a new IM window with your webcam active.

Step5 Click the 'View Webcam' link while talking to others in IM. This will allow you to see their webcams.

Step6 Use the 'Super Webcam' mode when you want to send and receive high-quality images and feeds. Broadband makes it possible to see one another in very high resolution, although even with high-end broadband your computer may slow down a bit because of the amount of memory and processing power this requires.

Step7 Click 'Webcam' followed by the 'Who's Watching Me' button to see which of your friends is receiving your webcam's feed.
