Camera Not Working in Teams
- Nov 26, 2020
AFeinstein On MacOs.... close teams fully. Open terminal window and paste text below in. Enter your password and after it runs close terminal and reopen teams. All should no be available.
sudo codesign --remove-signature "/Applications/Microsoft Teams.app/Contents/Frameworks/Microsoft Teams Helper (Renderer).app"
SteveCMcIntyre this method failed for me
the xcode command failed to install
so i found and downloaded xcode from the app store
tried running the other 2 scripts and received this error after entering my pw:
xcrun: error: invalid active developer path (/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools), missing xcrun at: /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/xcrun
/Applications/Microsoft Teams.app: the codesign_allocate helper tool cannot be found or used
ran the other script and got this back:
xcrun: error: invalid active developer path (/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools), missing xcrun at: /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/xcrun
/Applications/Microsoft Teams.app/Contents/Frameworks/Microsoft Teams Helper.app: the codesign_allocate helper tool cannot be found or used
I was optimistic as it seemed to have helped others. but reading the reply there were a few that ran into the same issues I had.
manong You haven't got xcode installed. That's why the second two failed. I got the same error about the upgrade server but then my auto-update downloaded it and installed the updates. Try installing xcode separately first and then retry the second and third scripts.

SteveCMcIntyre I did that. i mentioned that i had to manually find it and install it through the app store. not sure if that is the same install. it took a while to install. i tried running the scripts while that app was open but it was the same result.

manong sorry missed that you had installed it.. Do you have Admin rights? I ran the codes and had to type in my admin password and then it worked a treat. Sorry it's not the same for you.

SteveCMcIntyre I do have admin permissions. i even made myself a root admin and logged in as the root and tried those scripts in terminal and the same errors popped up. feeling discouraged
