Does your webcam device have a serial# in the USB section?

I'm sorry for late reply. I have checked and I found Web Cam in USB. But it doesn't work.

Cameras that don't show serial# are problematic. No known solution other than replacing the camera with one that is more compatible.

thank you so much. I will replace the camera.

Dear RehabMan, know any compatible camera? I have the same problem.

You might try search...

Then you can try to find a replacement on ebay.

I don't have the same laptop as you, so my camera info probably won't do you any good, and my 4540s and 4530s are not available for me ATM.

Dear Rehabman, I just don understand that when I use PBICE (credit to nguyen mac) to patch my HP 8470p after installation, my cam not working. Instead, when I use your kext in your hot patch (https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...book-using-clover-uefi-hotpatch-10-11.189416/) my cam work perfectly. Please illuminate me!

Confirmed your guide helped on 10.11. My laptop works like charm now. Just curious why it was?!
