Do you refer to an external camera, or the built-in camera?


For external cameras, additional software (“drivers”) may be needed to make it work, if they are compatible at all.


With newer versions macOS, applications need user consent to access the camera. If such access was denied in the past, then you may need to remove that prohibition or enable access in System Preferences﹥Security & Privacy﹥Privacy﹥.
