Welcome to the forum. There can be many reasons for this, likely the ip address changed. Let me know if you want to do a remote session using teamviewer and I will fix it for you.

i dont do phone calls...there are many things that can cause this that would take long to troubleshoot over the phone but 5 minuets at the computer...hopefully someone else can help you out.

you might want to start by rebooting the pc and power cycling the camera...

you need to unplug one of the ends...the camera may also simply be dead.

Wow my son will come home on Sunday I can ask him to get on the ladder again. You do not know all I have been through trying to get this house restored to sell. Everything time I turn around something breaks. I join this forum because I did not know where else to turn for help. My husband passed away a year ago massive heartache no warning. He was a computer genius and he set everything up. I miss him a lot. Thank you for responding.

I know you are new here and have every right to be nervous about where you get your help from, but Fenderman can be trusted. He is the Blue Iris man! He knows more about this software than anyone. But if you want to stay anonymous you can get a lot of help here, just ask away!


Sorry to hear about your husband btw. I'm the tech nerd of my family and I suppose I should start teaching people how to use it. Any idea what your husbands nickname might have been online? Chances are someone here knew him.
