I called sharp, and their tech support was having the same problem. Seems to be a skype software issue. Does anybody know how to reinstall it?

Check the connection. Turn TV off, connect camera then turn TV on and open Skype and check if camera is operational.

My guess there is no internet connection, turn TV off restart, then it should work again....allow TV couple of minutes to connect to the internet (doesnt matter if wifi or cable)

download latest firmware/software update https://www.sharpusa.com/CustomerSupport/SharpCareCenter/DownloadFiles.aspx?modelnum=LC-60LE650U onto a USB, then do a manual update

Is likely a broken wire or dirty connection. I would try the cable on another camera. If it works on another camera, the contacst on your camera are probably dirty. If it still does not work, it's probably a broken wire in the device. A broken wire in the device is unlikely to be worth fixing outside of warranty.

Here's how I've been fixing the problem as it happens intermittently to me. Power on the camera, then I gently tap it on a hard surface (like a desk). Mine will then work for months until I repeat.

Mine is fine . I bet if you contact Sharp they will give you a software update.

I use this tv daily and i have not experienced this at all. I think you should call sharp and get their take on this.

Hi, I don't have advice- but have the same problem! I'm frustrated that I purchased this camera and now can probably not return it!!! Good luck!! let me know if you find any tricks to get better pictures.

I got the same one and it has the same problem it will take still shots but not any video.It might be a big in the software or a wire is loose some where in the camera.

I would think the firmware is already installed now. The main fix was that it tells you to change the default User: "admin" and the password: "leave blank". If the cameras are not updated, it is easy to do yourself.

Sometimes if you "rush" the process, you will find that the camera action "freezes up." Try rebooting the camera by taking the battery out or plugging it in to your computer; anything that might trip or signal the mechanism. Don't push or force it, of course. If it locks-up often, then obviously, there are problems with the camera. I bought the insurance offered through Amazon, just for such circumstances.

Yes, it seems to be specific to Panasonic cameras. I believe it is a message indicating that attempting to connect to the camera has timed out. I believe that updating the firmware may help. If not, there may be a condition on your network which is blocking communication on certain ports.

No. Turn off power to camera. Remove, then reinsert data card. Format card again. If that doesn't work, it may be the card has errors. If that is the case, then reformat the card in your computer. Then repeat the formatting process in your camera.

I am having same problem, tried the fix that Sam suggested, laptop does not find the camera. What do you mean by "pressing play?" I don't see "play" within the software. Thanks for any help you can give.

Double check to make sure it's not on "no flash" (lightning bolt with circle and slash through it) which youcan change by pressing the circle with the ok in the middle. If that doesn't work, turn the camera off, take the battery out,and then put back in and turn on. also make sure your camera is well charged. Otherwise, get service.

make sure you activate the "remote commander" control, situated in the main menu on the camera.hope that works

I would say try to find a way to reset the camera to all it's default settings to see if it was just something silly you pressed/touched. If that doesn't work, check your return policy. Other than that.....um....try a hammer.

All I can think of is you might need to try "rebooting". There is a tiny hole in the bottom of the camera (inside the place where you would screw in a tripod). Try sticking a paper clip in the tiny hole a push for about 5-10 seconds. Mine has frozen before and that resets it. Do that, then try hooking it back up to your computer.
