    Greetings Laura,

    At which point doesn't it work? As a starting point, you should check that it works in the
    Audio and video setup wizard. To get there, open up any Messenger window, press the Alt key
    on the keyboard to bring up the menu bar, choose the Tools menu, then Audio and video setup.

    If it works there, but it still doesn't work within Messenger, and you're seeing grayed out
    options or a broken camera-like icon, you may want to see the following post on my blog:
