Yes you can ,for sure. but make sure you have the right connection cable which should be combatible with your camera and your video card on your computer as follow:\n\n _ (DVcamcorder) ---to-- firewire cable --to-- fire wire videocard on your computer(IEEE 1394 card).\n\n                          OR\n_ (analoge camera  --to--  S-video cable  ---to--- Analog video card on your computer \n\n                         Then\nWhen you go on the internet you do your own camera setup (setting your camera preference on yahoo messenger ) the setting will ask you to choose your camera device , then you choose the video card device and make sure your camcorder is on.     And from here you go.

Go to this website and download the Webcam driver package, run the software and follow the instructions. On certain USB devices you must install the software before plugging the device into your computer.\nhttp://www.mic-innovations.com/downloads.cfm?category=PC+Cameras&sub=Webcams&id=IC435C&type=drv&submit=Check+Downloads

firstly u should create email account in yahoo if u want to use yahoo messenger for voice chat n share your photo with others.firstly confirm whether ur computer is connected by a microphone so that u could directly talk with ur friend n also confirm whether  computer is connected with web-cam which helps u to share your photograph directly from the place which ur sitting, after this double click on yahoo messenger enter ur user name n password come to d chat room. join d person to whom u would like to chat. on the persons chat window to whom u joined now u will find phone receiver icon click on that n start talking to him/her next to share your photograph click on web-cam icon a window will appear which shows u in that then adjust it how u want. NOTE: u can only talk to your friend only if he/she is having microphone to talk with u. i mean caller n recipient both should have microphone to pc calls and if u want to see opposite persons photo then he should have web cam on his/her pc.

Go to "my computer" and right-click and go to properties.  Then click the "hardware" tab.  Then click on "device manager."  Make sure your webcam is plugged in.  See if there is a webcam listed in the "device manager."  If not, you may need to install a driver that came with it on a CD, or download a driver from the manufacturer.\n\nIf the webcam does show up in the device manager, delete it, and shut down your computer.  Then unplug the webcam.  Boot up your computer until it has finished loading completely.  Then plug the webcam back in, and try using it or installing it again.

Assuming you have installed the webcam properly with its drivers.\n\n1. Logon to http://messenger.yahoo.com/\n\n2. Click on the Features link on the top row.\n\n3. Click on the Webcam link which is in the last coloum.\n\n4. Click on the "Visit the Yahoo! Help Center" link on the right hand side.\n\n5. This will bring you to the webcam help section. Under the Getting Started title click on the Test webcam link. The website usually downloads a piece of software from Yahoo to your computer.\n\nThis is what I followed when I was unable to use my webcam on yahoo. I was able to use the cam on all other messengers and not on yahoo. Once this software was downloaded, the webcam works just fine on yahoo now.\n\nPls update your question if any errors are reported.\n\nUjjU

I use Trillian for this purpose and I can chat with AIM (AOL Messenger), Yahoo! and MSN messenger at the same time. It also links in ICQ too. Its just brilliant and you can download it from this link. the basic one is free and fully functional\n\nhttp://www.ceruleanstudios.com/

First: Dont turn off your firewall.\nSecond: If you are trying to use the webcam to broadcast to the internet, read up on how to open up different ports on your firewall to allow this. This totally depends on the application you are using for your webcam.\n\nIf you update your question with the application, I will be happy to help you some more...\n\nKEEP YOUR FIREWALL ON!!!!
