External camera does not work

My old iBook does not have any video camera for video calls. So I "bought" the following camera (Logitech QuickCam):
http://www.mymemory.co.uk/images/productshots/17101206530811.jpg
The camera came with a software which confirms that the camera should work with Apple. I also installed the software (successfully) in the harddisk.
However, when I clicked the QuickCam icon, I get an error message that the camera is not compatibe with my iBook.
Any views?

I don't see any mention of Mac compatibility on the product description for that item.
Also the Logitech support site does NOT have any downloads for the Mac OS.

  • My camera does not work on my ipod touch 4th gen. it just goes to a black screen i have done everything from resetting and rebooting... help :(

    I fell down the stairs the other day and busted my other ipod to the gamewerks near my house. the guy said he couldnt fix that ipod so he gave me a new one.. a better one a 32GB, the broken one was 8GB. but he told me the only bad thing is that the camera does not work and he doesnt know why... he just couldnt get it to workkk... any ideas on whats wrong?

    Try the following:
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

    Take the iPhone to an Apple store genius bar for testing, and if it is defective and under warranty they will replace.  Since you say iPhone 4, was this a used or refurbished iPhone? 

  • My Ipad 2 external speakers does not work and headphones has popping sound. This all occured at the same time as my Iphone and Ipod headphones only played mono (no, the "mono" option is not on). How can there be audio issue for all these devices?

    My IPad 2 external speaker does not work and the original headphones have popping sound when used. This all occurred at the same time as my IPhone and IPod headphones only plays mono (and no, the "mono" option is not on) with the original headphones, as well as, other headphones tested.  How can there be audio issue for all these devices at the same time?
    As you may have noted from the list of Apple devices I own, I believed in the Apple and the products it was producing; but it is hard to believe from my experience and the other voices within the Apple Community that we are all experiencing the same hardware issues. Especially since I recently, I upgraded to an IPhone 4g (no, my faith in IPhone 5 series is very little) and is experiencing the same audio problem as described above. So now, I am off to the Apple store again to be told that it’s a hardware problem on new IPhone. Really? Apple, what happen to the pride in the product you were producing?

    Everyone does things a little differently. I love to "jam " along with iTunes ( or old Lp's) . Always have. That's where/how I've learned to play .
    I'm sure leonieDF is giving a proper way to jam along on a keyboard with an iTune. He blows my mind all the time with what he knows. Nuff respects to him !
    What I do is make a GB project I call "Jam With". I'll make several new tracks that are blank. Just has a few instruments named in the blank tracks. You can change those per song ...
    Because I'm not concerned about changing the pitch / key.... of the iTune or the tempo ... I can simply play along with it.
    Peace,

  • Satellite M645-S4050: built in camera does not work correctly

    My built in camera does not work correctly.
    It does not have any kind of effect on and it captures pictures and videos as if some kind of thermal camera was on.
    Also some videos I load up on youtube look like this.
    I have been researching for an answer but can't find it, please help me.

    All you can do is to test it with latest webcam driver.
    Remove preinstalled camera software and install latest version offered on Toshiba download page.
    If the same happen again visit nearest Toshiba service and show them how it looks like. Maybe the cam must be exchanged.
    In the past I have used several Toshiba laptops with built in cam but I have never saw something lke this.

  • Hp TrueVision HD web cam does not work. The light will come on but no image appears in the window.

    Hi.
     I have an HP Pavilion dv7 6178us Entertainment PC I just bought it last week. My operating system is Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1 64 bits.
    The problem I have is that yesterday I install Skype in the computer and realized that the HP TrueVision HD web cam does not work. The light right next to the web cam will light up but no image will appear on the screen.
    I have checked the software that  I have in the computer for the webcam and the program is CyberLink YouCam BE version 3.5.
    But the web cam does not work. The light right next to it will turn on when I activate Cyberlink, Skype or Messenger but no actual image will come out in computer screen. The computer is fully updated BIOS, Windows 7 and HP.
    But the web cam is not working. Could you help me fix this problem?
    Best regards:
    JEIO71

    I have a pavilion dv6 notepad. it's about a year old.
    about a month ago internal webcam truevision hd stop working.
    Called hp tech. they sent a box for me to ship the laptop.
    they hp tech attempted to correct the problem via internet
    did not work.
    wanted me to do a restore to factory setting i stopped him there.
    Webcam detected in device manager.
    the webcam light come on but no image.
    I actually see the back drop through the image space.
    running windows 7, fully updated.
    I found many comments on the web about the webcam connector disconnecting.
    But if it was the case with my computer, the webcam would not be detected.
    Many other comments suggests to do a restore to factory setting but \i read also that
    does not work often.
    I read many comments where disappointed clients believe hp should update
    the software but the driver is actually microsoft dating back to june 2006.
    Is it possible it's  a hardware problem, ie webcam is burned out.
    I have received a box to sent it and know they will do a system restore.
    Don't feel to go that way.
    Many comments refers to hp making an effort to get a driver update.
    ps I decided to purchase a logitech webcam, works perfectly.
    What else can I do to fix this problem.
    Can hp send me another internal webcam.

  • Issue with Apple Camera VendorID_0x106B ProductID_0x1570 green light blinks continually...camera does not work in photo booth or face time

    Green light blinks continually...camera does not work in photo booth or face time.Any suggestions?

    Hi Rogerya,
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you may be experiencing issues with the built-in FaceTime camera (also known as iSight) on your MacBook Air. The following resource provides relevant troubleshooting information that you can try:
    How to Troubleshoot iSight - Apple Support
    https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT2090
    Important: Follow these instructions in order. Test the camera between steps to see if the issue is resolved.
    Built-in iSight cameras
    These steps are for iSight cameras that are built into a computer, such as the iMac G5 (iSight) or later, the MacBook, or MacBook Pro.
    1. See if the issue is application-specific.
    Try another application (iSight works with applications like iChat, PhotoBooth, and iMovie HD 6) to see if the iSight camera exhibits the same behavior in all applications. If it only happens in one application, try reinstalling that application.
    2. See if the issue is user-specific.
    Test your iSight camera in another user account. If the issue only occurs in one user, the issue would be isolated to user settings.
    3. Find out if the computer recognizes the iSight
    Check System Profiler (in the Utilities folder, inside the Applications folder). Under the USB header, check to see if the iSight camera is detected.
    4. Reset SMC or PMU
    Reset your computer's SMC or PMU, and then check System Profiler again. (SMC reset instructions for iMac G5 (iSight), Intel-based iMacs; PMU reset instructions for MacBook and MacBook Pro.)
    If your built-in iSight camera is still not behaving correctly after trying all these steps, you may need to contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service.
    - Matt M.

  • External editing does not work in LR4 (??)

    external editing does not work in LR4 (updated from LR3 a few days ago)
    has anyone an idea to solve this problem?
    Thank you.

    when I send the RAW Document for external editing (Elements 10) nothing happens at all ... zero :-(
    a friend of mine has the same problem - also updated from LR3 to LR4, external editor: elements 10
    Which process version is the image you're trying to edit externally? 
    You right-click (I'm assuming PC, can't help Macs), there should be a context menu option "Edit in".  You choose that, and there's an option for Elements 10 or not? 
    If so, what happens when you select it?  Do you get any further message?
    If not, you may have to go to Edit menu, preferences, External Editing tab and create a preset for Elements.  In the "Additional External Editor" area, click "Choose" and navigate to wherever Elements is on your machine and you can create a new external editor. 

  • I updated my iPad 4 iOS 8.0.2 and the camera does not work, ... Please help

    I updated my iPad 4 iOS 8.0.2 and the camera does not work and hangs and unconnected, .... Please help me in this question,... Thanks in advance

    You're welcome, but I didn't do anything. Try closing the camera app completely and reset your iPad and maybe that will help.
    In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    Hi there - I just completed a leopard upgrade. Strangely enough, after installation and the subsequent reboot, i cannot get the finder to work. Upon clicking on the finder it just sits there and gives the 'waiting' signal (rotating multicolor circle). I opened the activity monitor and killed it, clicked again. nothing. Rebooted numerous times.. nothing. I also tried to install the leopard software update. The files download fine but will not install. I assume this has to do with the finder problem. Any ideas on how to fix this? thanks!!
    There are really two "Finders," the one in the dock and the one that actually runs the GUI.
    When you click on your desktop, you see the Finder menu on the top right. Do any of those functions work?
    For example, if you click Go->Home, does the Finder window open as normal?
    If so, you may simply have a corrupted Finder alias in your dock.
    I would first run DU and perform a disk check and repair permissions.
    How to get to DU? Again, if the top right Finder menu works, select Go->Utilities and run DU from there.

    Yes it does, although I wa a minute faster than you. To see if someone is parroting you, or that they just posted at the same time, look at the head of the post and it will show you the data and time of the post and who they were responding to. Looking at that first saves some misinformation in future posting.
    You'll see some posts where there will be 5 posts all in the same minute sometimes. Answer posts late at night and you won't see as many.
    BTW, I clicked the Like button on your post where you gave the link for the users manual.

    Thank you for your help!

    Did try to restore "as new device" without using the backup after that?
    Did you try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo coes back again?
