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.

  • ISight Green Light on and iSight Does Not Work

    I noticed last night the green light was on for the internal iSight camera. I tried various isight programs (iChat, Photobooth, Skype) and none of the programs show a any issues, just a black screen where there should be an image of me looking pretty. I also checked system profile and it recognizes the camera on the USB port. I have used this camera many times and it has never been an issue. Anyone seen this before?

  • I am having trouble with my iPad, i can start it, but the iPad does not work. i tried to use the power and home button at the same time, the apple logo appears, but the iPad does not work. What am I suppose to do?

    After the Apple logo appears, what happens then? Can you hear any sounds or if you tap on the screen, does it seem like apps can open or are you just seeing a black screen? You might have a hardware problem, but you can try restoring the software and see what happens.
    Read this in its entirety before you do anything. Make sure you read the sections at the end about using recovery mode.

    It appears that this is due to firmware corruption and you can fix it by using the micro USB cable and hooking it to iTunes.  I have not tried it yet but supposedly several people were able to resolve their problem this way.  If you do try it, let me know.  I don't have the cable at this time.

  • I bought this iPhone from Apple Retail Store for the full amount, but  it does not work with my SIM card only works with AT&T

    Hello,
    I have an iPhone 4S 32Gb White AT&T, product part No. MC921LL/A, Serial No. C39GMLPWDTDC
    I bought this iPhone from Apple Retail Store (from Fifth Avenue, NY) for the full amount. Now it does not work with my SIM card only works with AT&T. I restored the phone several times, but I have not received "Congratulations your iPhone has been unlocked". Please activate my iPhone to work with different SIM cards
    Thanks,
    Best Wishes

    When did you buy it?
    Apple did not begin selling an unlocked version of the iPhone 4S in the US until 11/11/11. I believe it went on sale only through the online store at that time. I'm not sure if it's available at retail yet.
    What you purchased was a phone without a contract commitment. It is still locked to AT&T. AT&T will NOT unlock iPhones for any reason.  Return it and get your money back, then use that to purchase an unlocked phone.

  • Strange issue with rights of account, used by SSIS (Foreach Loop Container does not return file names without Admin rights on server)

    Hello everyone.
    Faced very strange issue with account, which is used to run SSIS package.
    The specific package uses Foreach Loop Container to retrieve file names within the specified folder, and put them into Import file task.
    The package is set up to run under specific service account. This service account is given all permissions (Full control) to the folder where source files reside.
    So the issue is: SSIS package fails to execute this task (Foreach Loop Container and then Import), and shows that no files are found in the directory (although files ARE there).
    Once we're adding the service account into local Administrators group on the SQL Server, it works! Removing - does not work again. We cannot leave the service account as SQL server's admin as it's prohibited by our IT policies, and is just a bad practice.
    Any ideas, please?

  • Face time does not accept my Apple ID and will not work.  Help!!, face time does not accept my Apple ID and will not work.  Help!!

    Hi, Face time does not accept my Apple ID and therefore Face time does not work. Any suggestions?

    You might have some sort of interference or communication problem, I just wanted to check you were entering the right ID to begin with.
    If you are using the correct ID (without spaces), then you might try restarting the router or trying another wifi channel to eliminate interference.

  • HT4623 i can no longer access Safari.  It's not the phone because Apple just sent a new one and it still does not work.  I use the same computer to sync my ipodtouch5 and it has Safari.  My iphone4 does not.  What is the problem?

    I can no longer access Safari.  It's not the phone because Apple just sent a new one and it  (Safari) still does not work.  I use the same computer to sync my ipodtouch5 and Safari is operable.   However, Safari on my iphone is not.  What is the problem?

    That is the way it works. It designed to do that.
    In addition to everything else you have to this other person's computer you would have to move your complete iTunes library over also. Only then will it recognize youriTouch.

  • How do I close programs in IOS7.  The old way with double tapping the button and getting the red X does not work.  Even rebooting the phone does not work.

    How do I close programs with IOS 7?  The old way of closing programs by double tapping on the button, holding down an icon until it started shaking and a red X appears does not work.  Every program I opened appears.  Turning on and off the phone does nopt work.

    I just found out.  Above the icon is a copy of the open page of the program(s).  You slide the pages up to close.

  • Airport express Green light on, itunes transmitting, internet not working

    Hi,
    I have a thinkpad running XP and a cable/telephony modem from comcast. I installed the airport express following the directions and got a blinking amber light and no functioning internet or airtunes. I then took down the IP address, router address, etc (IP Address: 66.30.116.41 Subnet Mask: 255.255.248.0 Default Gateway: 66.30.112.1
    DHCP Server: 68.87.71.8 DNS Servers: 68.87.71.226, 68.87.73.242) from my modem and manually configured those settings into my airport express, and now I have a green light and am able to transmit itunes but can't access the internet. My computer connects to the network but then I can't load any pages. When I try "repair," it fails when reconnecting to the network. The IP adress when I'm connected to AX begins with 10.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    no answer but same problem as yours. any news on your side ?

  • AEBS has green light but email and internet not working

    I have an AEBS (second hand) connected to my cable modem. I used an ethernet cable and manual settings to set up as Utility wouldn't detect the AEBS wirelessly to start off with. Under internet settings in Utility I have selected Connect Using Ethernet and Configure IPv4 Manually and entered all the same settings I have in the MacBook for my modem. The AEBS light went green, Utility says setup was successful and the MacBook recognised the new network and connected to it, so I have all the bars black on the Airport icon on my top menu bar, and also the network showing with a green light in system preferences. But email and internet still won't go - just spinning wheels and exclamation marks! They're fine when I connect the modem direct to the MacBook so it's not a modem fault. I have tried restarting modem, MacBook and AEBS to no avail. Any advice most gratefully received, I'm very much a novice a this!

    I know that you have already attempted to restart the various pieces of networking equipment, but please try the following complete power recycle steps to see if this gets the AEBS to be able to communicate properly with the modem.
    When changing ISPs (or networking equipment) it's always a good idea to start from "scratch" in configuring your equipment.
    I would recommend that you do the following as a minimum:
    Power-down the modem, AirPort base station, and computer(s).
    While all of the devices are powered-down, perform a "factory default" reset on the base station. This will get it back to its "out-of-the-box" configuration and make setting it up much easier, especially if you use the "Assist me" process within the AirPort Utility. (ref: Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule)
    After the base station resets, go ahead and power it back down.
    Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes.
    Power-up the base station; wait at least 5-10 minutes.
    Power-up your computer(s).
    In this basic configuration, computers connected to the base station, either by wire or wireless (as appropriate for the base station type), should now be able to access the Internet through the ISP's modem. Once Internet connectivity has been verified, you can use the AirPort Utility to configure the base station for wireless security and any other desired options.

  • HT5706 Apple TV 3 light blinking after update attempt, not working

    Apple TV not working after update attempt. The Apple TV light just keeps blinking can not turn it off and unplugging it for 30 seconds is not a remedy. I have tried that several times.I have only had this for a few weeks now I am vary disappointed.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
    (You may already have a micro USB cable if you have a camera or other digital device)
