  1. Why is my camera not working?
    • If you have Teams or Zoom open, please close them and try again, some windows versions do not allow for multiple camera outputs.
    • Did you allow access to your camera when you logged onto the platform?
    • If you are using an external web camera, is the device properly connected?
      1. Check the USB Port. Unplug the camera and try plugging something else into the port to check the port is working.
      2. Try plugging the camera into a different device to ensure it is working. If you are experiencing problems with it on more than one PC, the issue may be with the webcam.
      3. If you have both built-in and external cameras, ensure the correct one is enabled or set as the default recording device.
      4. Check anti-virus settings. Some anti-virus software can interfere with webcams.
      5. Check webcam drivers are up to date.
