Using a MacBook Pro 2010 with high Sierra but camera is not switching on please help. 2 months ago it was working??? Trying to use zoom!
MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.13
Sorry but it looks like a visit to >> Find an Apple Authorized Service Provider or Visit a Genius at an Apple Store is required to Evaluate the computer and / or repair it.
Costs - only they could provide that information.
In reality a MBP 2010 in 2022 - 12 years old - it has had a long life and may worth considering a new or newer machine.
Does the Builtin Apple Camera show up in System Information ?
In my picture below, working on a Mac Mini so there is no Builtin Apple Camera
Give use a Screen Shot
You are welcome.
Depending on you Physical Location on the Globe - Apple May offer Refurbished computer at an Apple Reduced Price.
Not cheap but better than Full Price. Have used this service from time to time and very satisfied with the machines. Come with a 1 Year Warranty and 90 Day Phone Support. The Batteries in each of the 2 or 3 I have purchased in the past all had Brand New Batteries with maybe 2 Full Cycles
Certified Refurbished Products - Apple (CA) I am located 🇨🇦 so the link will be for my Region.
Do come back to the Apple Support Communities ( ASC ) in the future, if / or when additional questions may arise
Sorry that didn't help as camera is no in the sidebar in security??
For some reason it does not show at all. BTW I very much appreciate your help on this.
So now?
Well thanks very much again for your help. It was working perfectly so interesting how it has just stopped. In any case will try your suggestion and go from there, cheers again.
