How do you setup the web camera in the browser. I have looked everywhere and can't find the information. Just a lot of stuff I don't need or want to read. I am using Lenovo Easy camera and trying to put a picture on a web site.

If your problem is something like the image below, follow the steps given.

This problem usually occurs in Firefox where you can't click on Allow. [Example http://i.stack.imgur.com/36c0b.png]

  • Open the website which requires the webcam.
  • There will be a list of websites which you've visited and which required webcam. 
   Select the website to which you want to allow webcam access and select Always Allow.

   Refresh the website again and you're done!

Firefox sole use of a web cam is currently related to the Hello feature, using WebRTC (Web Real-Time Communication). https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-hello-video-and-voice-conversations-online

As far as what you want to do - take a snapshot image thru your web cam and then upload that image - the only part that would involve Firefox is opening a File Upload window that will allow your to select the image that you took thru the Web Cam via Windows or the software that came with that Cam. And the upload would be initiated thru the website where you want that image placed.

Hit the Browse ... button on this webpage and see what Firefox does as far as image uploading. It opens a File Upload dialog which allows you select the image that you want uploaded. Once you have selected the image hit the Save button and between Windows and the website the image will be uploaded to that website.
