iPad Camera blocked

Question

iPad Camera blocked

I was on Google Browser on the Americas Best site. Logged into my account. Tried to use the home try on feature. Web site said my camera was blocked by another program. Do not know how this happened or how to correct it.

Hello sparkchaser1200,

Thanks for the clarification. Yes, the location is different. Check here:

Control access to the camera on Mac - Apple Support

Since it's in Safari, also check here:

Change Websites settings in Safari on Mac - Apple Support

Thanks.

Hello sparkchaser1200,

For your privacy, you'll need to grant permission before apps will be able to access features like your camera. To do that, follow the steps in Control access to hardware features on iPad.

"Go to Settings > Privacy & Security.
Tap a hardware feature, such as Camera, Bluetooth, Local Network, or Microphone.

The list shows the apps that requested access. You can turn access on or off for any app on the list."

If you're using Google Chrome in this instance, you'll want to enable Google Chrome access to your camera.

Regards.

Racheals14,

Thanks for your reply. I did not indicate that I was using my iMac not the iPad. My fault sorry.

I was looking for the switches you indicated that are on iOS devises. OS does it differently.

Thanks again for you reply.
