Langkah
- 1
Allow camera access
Open System Settings › Privacy & Security › Camera and switch on your browser or app. Quit and reopen the app afterwards.

Choose the right camera
If an iPhone is nearby, Continuity Camera may be selected instead of the built-in camera. Choose the camera in the app's video settings.
- 3
Close other apps using the camera
Call apps, camera utilities and other browser tabs can hold the camera. Quit them, including from the system tray or menu bar, then try again.
- 4
Check browser site settings
In Safari: Safari › Settings › Websites › Camera, set this site to Allow. In Chrome: site controls icon next to the address bar.
- 5
Check the connection
Unplug the device and plug it into a different USB port, directly on the computer rather than through a hub. For wireless devices, charge them and re-pair.
- 6
Restart
A restart releases devices that an app has frozen and reloads drivers. It fixes more problems than it should.
