Good morning, this guide will walk you through enabling camera access on our Chromebook 11 G6 EE models if Camera Access is disabled.


See attached photo below


Step By Step Guide

Step 1:  Sign into the chromebook you or the student is using.  (if a student needs to use the camera, you will need to temporarily sign in using your staff account.  Webcam websites are blocked for students.)


Step 2:  Launch Google Chrome and Search 'Webcam Test'. (See attached screenshot below)


Step 3:  Select the top link 'https://webcamtests.com'


Step 4:  Select 'Click here to allow access to webcam identifiers'.  (See attached Screenshot below.)


Step 5:  A box will appear on in the upper left corner.  Select 'Allow this time'


Step 6:  Select 'Test my cam'


Step 7:  When the test is finished, sign out of the chromebook.  The camera should now be fully functional.

It is a lengthy process, but unfortunately this is the only workaround until we have an update from google.  

I hope this helps, have a great day!
