We’ll look at likely causes behind the problem, and the most effective solutions to try. If your Mac® laptop camera is malfunctioning and you don’t know what to do, you’ve come to the right place!

Without any further delay, let’s get to it and fix this annoying camera error. Grab your MacBook and follow along as we try a few troubleshooting solutions.

Why Your MacBook Camera Is Not Working

There can be several reasons your MacBook camera may be malfunctioning. Typically a software issue is behind it all. Issues like conflicting applications, or processes blocking the camera. It could be outdated software also or problems with the SMC within the MacBook. And, of course, there is also the possibility the camera has suffered some hardware damage. Hardware damage will require the help of a professional to replace the parts.

Up next, we’ll address these problems with potential solutions which may lead to your camera working as it should. Simply follow the 4 troubleshooting steps listed below, and you should be able to use your camera again in no time.

1. Make Sure No Conflicting Apps Are Running the Camera

Running several background apps that use the camera or running many instances of the same application can cause the camera to malfunction. You’ll want to kill any process that uses the camera, such as Skype™, FaceTime®, PhotoBooth®, ect. Not sure what apps use the camera? No problem; just close all your apps and start over.

In order to kill all processes using the camera, do the following:

On your MacBook, click on ‘Launch Pad’ to open the interface.
Select the folder labeled ‘Other’ on the Launch Pad’s menu.
In the ‘Other’ folder, locate and open ‘Terminal.’
Type “sudo killall vdcassistant” and hit Enter.
You’ll be prompted to type in your password (This is the same as the one you use to log in your MacBook.)
Let the system finish shutting down processes, and test the camera once again.

Once you’ve stopped all running processes, any conflicting application issues should now be resolved. If the camera still doesn’t work after this, it may be a good idea to give it a quick restart.

2. Try Rebooting the MacBook

Oftentimes, a simple reboot can fix the Camera issues on your MacBook. This is due to temporary corruptions in the system dump memory. Rebooting the MacBook resets any corrupted memory and may potentially solve the problem.

On your MacBook, click on the Apple® menu on the top left side of the display.

3. Reset the Mac’s System Management Controller (SMC)

How to reset your MacBook’s SMC

Begin by shutting down the system by navigating over to the Apple menu on the top left side of the display and clicking on the shut down option.
Make sure your MacBook’s charger is plugged into a working outlet, and plugged in to the computer.
Hold down the ‘Shift,’ ‘Control’ and ‘Option’ keys simultaneously, then turn on the MacBook.
Don’t release the keys until the computer completes the booting sequence.
Once it’s finished, check to see if your camera is now working.

4. Update Your Computer’s Software

It’s very possible that certain apps or even the iOS may be outdated and require updates before the camera will function. You’ll want to make sure everything is up to date by double-checking the system for available updates.

Simply click on the Apple® menu as before, and enter the App Store® application to see if there is anything that needs updating. In order to update system processes you’ll want to navigate to the Apple menu again and click on ‘System Preferences,’ then navigate to your software update.

Hopefully this fixes things; you can go ahead and test out the camera again now. Or, if you’d rather, you can reboot the computer and try after that. If this didn’t work, either? Your MacBook camera may not be working because of an issue with the hardware itself, and could need the help of a qualified expert.
