Hello DaniTessa,


Welcome to the Apple Support Communities. I understand you want to enable microphone and camera access back to Quicktime. You've reached the right place for help.


Here are the exact settings to change:


1 . Opening System Preferences on the Mac. This can best be done by click on the Apple menu in the upper-left corner then System Preferences.


2 . Go to Security & Privacy then click on the Privacy tab.


3 . Click on the lock and put in your admin password, so changes can be made.


4 . Click on Camera then look for Quicktime under Allow access to the apps below to your camera.


5 . Click on Microphone, then look for Quicktime again under Allow access to the apps below to your microphone.



Thanks and have a great day.
