If your camera is in the list and you see the "Camera is not connected" message in the status bar the specific resolution is likely set on your camera that inPhoto ID Webcam or inPhoto Capture Webcam doesn`t support.

If you have another situation, please connect to our support at support@idphotocapture.com.
