Hey there Kittyshack66,


If you haven't already, take a moment to look over and follow the steps on this page: If your built-in camera isn’t working on your Mac. As it shows there, you'll want to complete the following steps:


    1. Check to make sure the camera indicator light is green to indicate that the camera is on.
    2. Update the software on your Mac. If you need help with updating, follow the steps on this page: Update macOS on Mac.
    3. If you Use Screen Time on your Mac, make sure your camera is turned on and apps that use the camera have time available.
    4. Make sure your apps have permission to use the built-in camera. You can check this from the Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Security & Privacy. Click the Privacy tab, then click Camera in the sidebar.
    5. Test to see if the camera works in a different app. If the issue is app-specific, which app is having the problem?
    6. Also, if you have not already, reset the SMC of your Mac. Here's how: How to reset the SMC of your Mac.


If you have completed these steps and still have an issue, you'll want to Contact Apple for support and service.


Kind regards!
