Can I install a camera from Logitech in my MacBook Air from 2010?


You’ll have to check with Logitech Support about that.


The data sheets associated with their peripherals usually list the supported macOS versions.


MacBook Air includes a built-in camera, as you may be aware. FaceTime camera, with 640 by 480 resolution.

MacBook Air late 2010 can be upgraded to El Capitan, or to High Sierra. High Sierra is the last version for that Mac.

Have complete and current backups prior to the upgrade.

The problem is that the camera is not working


There are ways to use an iPhone as a camera, if you have one of those around:

You will want to be maintaining complete and current backups, particularly given the age of the Mac.
