Razer Kiyo on MacBook stopped working


My Razer Kiyo on Macbook Pro has been working fine for ages.

 

Today,. the Macbook won’t recognise it.  I’ve tried another Kiyo on this Macbook no joy.  Tried on another Macbook Air - no joy with either.

 

Both cameras work fine on a Windows box so I’m of the opinion it’s a MacOS issue ?

 

MacOS 14..4.1

 

Any suggestions?

I have the same problem with the Kiyo Pro. I already upgraded to Sonoma 14.5, hoping that would help. But no…

Well seems like Apple changed something and then it broke. But the webcams should at least be detected as a proper “General Purpose Webcam” and that seems not to be the case.

My webcam started working a few days after I posted this.

 

Weird.  I think it might have been my corporate policy was changed, then changed back.

Hello!

I have found a solution that helped me:

 

  • Connect Kiyo to your Mac
  • Run the Photo Booth app
  • Go to CAMERA (up menu)
  • Switch to Kiyo 
  • Turn off Automatic select
  • Close Booth
