I bought this lightly used. What is the internet web page for the printer. I am not sure what you mean. Thanks for the help I am new to this and can use it.
It appears you are in the USA. I would contact support@fbrc8.com. They assembled your printer and if you give them your serial number and explain the problem they can tell you if it is still under warranty. Even if it isn't they will surely give you some hints as to what is wrong as we are not familiar with this particular issue (probably rare?).
Usually someone here has a good idea as to the problem but apparently not this time.

Most often camera issues are usually IP address related and resolved after a factory reset. As Smithy mentioned you can put the IP address into your browser and see what comes up that way. Are you running the latest firmware?
And as gr5 mentioned, you can always submit a ticket. Screen shots of what you're seeing when you try to access the camera should also help.
This is what I see
I have e new ultimaker S5 (Firmware (6.5.2.0) and I have the same problem. What should I do ?
I have the latest firmware 7.0.2
Whit a new Firmware 6.5.3.0, camera is done
thank you
@Syl2014 - I don't think it was the firmware, lol. I think it was the reboot.
@wittsend - did you try rebooting? If so did you try the factory reset? Erin is very good at this - she has fixed hundreds of S5 printers. Note that after a factory reset I'm pretty sure you need to do XY calibration again. Probably lift switch calibration as well. But if you are only using one core you can skip XY calibration and lift switch calibration gets easier each time. I can do it in less than a minute now.
I took the bottom off and unplugged and plugged back in the camera and it worked then tried again and the camera stopped working.
Edited by wittsend
Beware that under the bottom are deadly voltages. Be careful under there. Did you follow Erin's advice? She's probably the most knowledgable person on the planet regarding this particular issue. Seriously. She's built and repaired S5's. She's helped hundreds of people fix them. She works for the company that assembles every S5 sold in USA. So take her advice very seriously.

Yes I understand and it was unplugged. I am used to working around power and always take it seriously. I am still working on it and hope to get it solved.

ArunC posted a topic in Ultimaker Cura,
In this stable release, Cura 5.3 achieves yet another huge leap forward in 3D printing thanks to material interlocking! As well as introducing an expanded recommended print settings menu and lots of print quality improvements. Not to mention, a whole bunch of new printer profiles for non-UltiMaker printers!-

Here it is. The new UltiMaker S7
MariMakes posted a topic in Official news,
The UltiMaker S7 is built on the success of the UltiMaker S5 and its design decisions were heavily based on feedback from customers.
So what’s new?
The obvious change is the S7’s height. It now includes an integrated Air Manager. This filters the exhaust air of every print and also improves build temperature stability. To further enclose the build chamber the S7 only has one magnetically latched door.
The build stack has also been completely redesigned. A PEI-coated flexible steel build plate makes a big difference to productivity. Not only do you not need tools to pop a printed part off. But we also don’t recommend using or adhesion structures for UltiMaker materials (except PC, because...it’s PC). Along with that, 4 pins and 25 magnets make it easy to replace the flex plate perfectly – even with one hand.
The re-engineered print head has an inductive sensor which reduces noise when probing the build plate. This effectively makes it much harder to not achieve a perfect first layer, improving overall print success. We also reversed the front fan direction (fewer plastic hairs, less maintenance), made the print core door magnets stronger, and add a sensor that helps avoid flooding.
The UltiMaker S7 also includes quality of life improvements:
Reliable bed tilt compensation (no more thumbscrews) 2.4 and 5 GHz Wi-Fi A 1080p camera (mounted higher for a better view) Compatibility with 280+ Marketplace materials Compatibility with S5 project files (no reslicing needed) And a whole lot more
Curious to see the S7 in action?
We’re hosting a free tech demo on February 7.
It will be live and you can ask any questions to our CTO, Miguel Calvo.

Cura Alpha With New Tree Support 🎄
MariMakes posted a topic in Ultimaker Cura,
Are you a fan of tree support, but dislike the removal process and the amount of filament it uses? Then we would like to invite you to try this special release of UltiMaker Cura. Brought to you by our special community contributor @thomasrahm
We generated a special version of Cura 5.2 called 5.3.0 Alpha + Xmas. The only changes we introduced compared to UltiMaker Cura 5.2.1 are those which are needed for the new supports. So keep in mind, this is not a sneak peek for Cura 5.3 (there are some really cool new features coming up) but a spotlight release highlighting this new version of tree supports.-

Welcome!
No, there is no trick to get it working. If it is not working on a brand new printer, I would contact your reseller.
Have you tried the internet webpage from the printer itself, if you see the cam there? Just enter the IP address of the printer in a browser and follow the menu.
