Check again that the USB connection is good, and reboot. If you have a USB hub, does the web cam work through that?


Catalina only supports 64-bit applications and drivers. If your (anonymous) webcam required 32-bit vendor software installed to use it, then Catalina will not support it. If this is true, check with the webcam vendor for 64-bit software updates.
