Camera not working on Chrome Google Meet

I am having the EXACT same problem. I teach first grade virtually and need help ASAP. Everything was working fine yesterday. I have tried everything. HELP!

Im literally having the same problem. I don’t know what’s going on or how to fix this.

I have been having the same issues since 1/25/2021. I've tried everything!! My camera only works in Safari but not chrome.

Same here, started today 01-27, i try privacy settings, restart etc. definelly a chrome update problem

first off, I hope u don't use chrome for your main browser (its the worst on Mac)

second, try updating chrome or use safari. safari had issues in Catalina but in Big Sur they got fixed.

I appreciate any suggestions but unfortunately this did not work for me. I switched it on relaunched...I switched it off then relaunched with no luck. How, I wish it had.

Thank you so much!!! This doesn't make any sense for me but it helped! :D :D

I toggle the hardware activation switch on and off and hit relaunch and it worked! Thank you so much

This worked for me too!!

I am having exactly the same issue. I am so frustrated bc the camera works with all other applications.

same thing... was fixed right away (after restart) when I turned on hardware acceleration in Chrome.

I restarted and it did not help. I found a work around. Chrome definitely does not work with Google Meets but, I downloaded Firefox and it works again. Safari does not work with google meets either.

Same exact issue here - only just realised it works in Safari so at least that is a work around. Worked in Chrome until 2 days ago. Not ideal for home schooling!!

Toggling doesn’t work for me in chrome hard ware settings.

10.11.6

Meet through Firefox does work with both pictures.
