Q: After MAc Book Pro update NO Camera on SKype

Updated my MAc Book Pro to OS Yosemite 10.10.2 and updated skype to latest version and since then NO camera. I can see the person I call they can only see a black/gray screen although my camera on my screen is shining green.

MacBook Pro (13-inch Mid 2010), OS X Yosemite (10.10.2)

    Does the camera work in other applications such as Photo Booth and/or FaceTime?

    I have checked photo booth and that tells me my camera is off.

    The green light on my screen is working.

    I have checked the USB header on the system profiler but cannot find it in utilities.

    I ahve switched the computer off and have had it off for a longer period of time.

     

    All sstill no camera. It seems that everything points to that the camera is there but does not want to funtion in relataion to anything.

     

    What to do or try?

     

    As I am heading for China end of the week, it would really be great to have this skype working so I can check in with my kids whilst I am gone.

    Appreciate and am grateful fo any help that can get it to work.
