3 of the 4 cameras are not sensing motion and the motion icon isn't highlighted. How can I fix this? Everything seems like it should work but I cannot figure it out

If the motion icon ( running man or ball/line ) is not black then the cameras will never record. ( black means active or ON , gray is OFF )

 

There are two fixes based on your skill level;

1) Edit the ARMED mode ( this is the default ) to toggle on the rule to record

2) remove the cameras ( one at a time ) using Remove Device in settings and bring back as if new... this automaticly will rebuild any default settings.

 

I would if possible, first try #1..... if unsure of how to do this , first read the FAQs, and then ask if still unsure.
