Big Sur camera

Hi,

My camera has stopped working completely on every app after downloading the latest version of Big Sur 11.6.

Has anyone managed to resolve this issue?

Thanks.

Does the camera still appear correctly in System Information? Hold down option key and from the Apple menu choose System Information, then click on Camera.

Post a screenshot.


Try resetting NVRAM.


Also, try restarting in Safe Mode, and then normally again.


If the problem persists, Please run Etrecheck and post its full report here. Use the "additional text" button and paste the report into the text box.
