The first time the Camera app asked if it could use Webcam, I accidentally selected block. How can I allow it again. All is says now is ‘Connect a camera’

Ciprian Adrian Rusen

Go to the Settings charm, when the Camera app is opened. Then, click or tap Permissions and change its permissions.

my video records fast, when i play it the video seems fast

Ciprian Adrian Rusen

Try to edit its video settings. See if there’s anything that fixes this problem.

I cannot figure out how to add youtube or facebook to the list of “share to” options. Surely this is possible?

Danielle

When I go and play a video I recorded it doesn’t play in real time, it plays like 10 times faster than normal. I’ve tried recording in a smaller resolution but it still happens. Help please & thank you!

Ciprian Adrian Rusen

And you play the recorded video using which video player?

When I record videos with the Camera App, and open up Internet or another app in the foreground, it immediately stops recording. Is there anyway to change this?

Ciprian Adrian Rusen

I’m afraid not. The Camera app doesn’t know how to record video while running in the background. 🙁

I searched for the ‘Camera’ on the start screen and nothing came up, what should I do now? I can’t seem to search the app store… argh

Ciprian Adrian Rusen

The Camera app can be found in the Windows Store and reinstalled from there.

My camera app is different from the one shown here. There is a video or still option icons on the right hand side of the screen, no options down below like your screen shots. If I right click when it’s open I get “Camera Roll”, “Timer” and “Exposure” options down below. I’m running Windows 8. Any ideas???

Ciprian Adrian Rusen

You might be using Windows 8.1. Check this tutorial:

Are there any alternatives to the camera App that will allow for continued recording of video when minimized?

Does anyone know why my laptop window 8.1 camera will only record for 3 hours?

My dog had a seizure one night and I need to see if she is having them during the day while we are at work.

Amy

My computer does not have a camera option for audio. Nor does it have the camera settings icon on the bottom pull up screen. Is there a reason that you know of why I would not have those? Is there a way that you know of to update or get those so I can actually use this app? Thanks.

So long as windows version was 8.1, I could replay a recorded video through camera roll. But I do not find it after converting to Windows 10. Still pictures recorded on the same day are available. What to do.

joseph

how do i record using the camera then minimize the camera app and continu recording

Ciprian Adrian Rusen

You can’t do that. If you minimize the app, it stops recording.
