Ok so I have a free standing iSight Cam, is it possible to use it with my white MacBook ? and if so how do I go about it ? I've tried researching for updates, drives but need help. Can someone give me some direction ?

OK so yes, but if, and only if:
(1) your MacBook has a Firewire port (not all do)
    - and -
(2) your old external iSight camera works (not all do)
    - and -
(3) your MacBook is working properly.
If you are not certain whether your MacBook model has Firewire, you can search MacBook Technical Specifications for your model.  Alternatively, check the  User Guide Manual that came with your MacBook for the information you need to be certain.
If you are not certain that your old external iSight camera works, you can test it using the suggestions in this link.

Follow the instructions in your iSight User's Guide to connect and turn on the iSight.  Then launch the Apple app you want to use with your iSight.  If you need more information about using an app, search for "camera" (without the quote marks) in the Help menu choice for the app.

If you need more direction, post back the specifics of what you still need.  We will offer further direction based on the details of your reply.

  • All of my photos are displayed as BW because somehow I've saved a quick develop preset and it saves as BW.  This is for all of my photos.  I can individually undo them but need help in how to get rid of the preset so it goes to Default. thanks

    All of my photos are displayed as BW because somehow I've saved a quick develop preset and it saves as BW.  This is for all of my photos.  I can individually undo them but need help in how to get rid of the preset so all photos goes to Default or as shot. thanks

    Go to the develop module and highlight all of the images in the filmstrip at the bottom of the screen. Then activate Auto-sync and click on the Reset button. That should reset all of the images to your camera default settings.

    One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem.
    Also heating sometimes works. See:
    Why can't I select my wifi settings?
    A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
    Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
    Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
    Power up
    Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
    If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

  • I cant update my iphone and i tried going on my pc on itunes and clicking check for update button but it says that "itunes could not contact the iphone software update server because you are not connected to the internet".plz help

    i cant update my iphone and i tried going on my pc on itunes and clicking check for update button but it says that "itunes could not contact the iphone software update server because you are not connected to the internet". But i checked my internet on both my pc and iphone and tried again but it still says the same thing. plzz plzz help

    Were you definitely connected to the internet at the time? If you don't have iOS 5 on your iPhone then the only way to update it would be via iTunes, once updated to the latest version of iOS you'll be able to update your iPhone without connecting to iTunes "over-the-air".
    Before updating however it goes without saying to Backup your iPhone, this should happen by default upon connecting your iPhone to iTunes.

  • Purchasing MBA but need help on upgrades.

    Hello, I am purchasing an MBA, but need help on upgrades based on the following; I will be attending medical school in the fall, I take a wide range of photos of my family on my iPhone that I play with on certain apps and do store them in the cloud and computer, I have a medium iTunes libaray but will get bigger with the additional apps for school, I am a moderate gamer (I play games online as well as my kids do, but nothing that will take up a ton of space when downloaded like Assassins Creed) and I plan on running MS Office. I've already decided to upgrade to the 8GB but I can't decide if I should upgrade to the 512GB Flash or stay with the 256GB and upgrade from the i5 to i7 or stick with it. I don't plan on buying another until I graduate. I am new to the Mac World outside of the use of my iPhone which convience me to convert from my awful PC. Can you MBA experts relay some advice on a good route. I appreciate it, Thanks

    My rule of thumb is to buy the largest drive storage available. Especially since the Air models can't be upgraded to a larger size in the future. I also like to buy the most amount of RAM offer and as with the storage space on the Air models can't be upgraded once purchased. So Bite the Bullet and spend the money to get both the most RAM and the largest storage offered as neither can be increased later on.  Also I suggest you spend the extra money on the Applecare extended warranty because to fix any Mac once the standard warranty is over is very expensive. You have until the one year standard warranty runs out to buy the Applecare extended warranty.

  • I updated to the 7.1.2 and now my wifi is messed up and my service is screwed up and I wasn't having any problems until I updated! I need help!!

    I updated to the 7.1.2 and now my wifi is messed up and my service is screwed up and I wasn't having any problems until I updated! I need help!!

    Hopefully you won't have to make a trip to the Apple Store.
    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    If that does not help, restore the software >  iTunes: Restoring iOS software

  • I purchased elements 9 for iMac as a paid download 10/23/2012, recently I had to replace my hard drive and lost the program. I had read that purchased downloads were available for three years but the link  with my past order information is no longer click

    I purchased elements 9 for iMac as a paid download 10/23/2015, recently I had to replace my computer's hard drive and lost elements. I had read that downloaded purchases would be available for 3 years but, when I click onto the serial number of that order it isn't active. By clicking onto the link it should take me to the site where I can re download the elements 9 but, it doesn't do anything.  Unfortunately calling Adobe did not help, they will not address any elements questions over the phone, there's a recording directing all elements questions to this forum.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.       Diana

    Thank you for the answers so far, but I'll make one correction: I said earlier that the Boston Globe website, boston.com, does not have a mobile site, and I would need to visit their regular website on my iPhone. Actually, I just found out that boston.com has a mobile site, so I'd obviously use that instead of the regular site. By doing that, I'd save a ton of data (I think). Does that change your answers?

  • I am un able to send mail as it gets stuck in my outbox. I am sure the solution is simple but need help?

    I am un able to send mail as it gets stuck in my outbox. This is a recent phenomena. I am sure the solution is simple but need help?

    I looked everywhere for a solution - and I finally figured it out! Deleting my accounts didn't work, but here is what worked. This worked when my Gmail accounts were not sending properly. I'm not sure if it works for other e-mail services.
    1. While in Mac Mail, click "Mail" in the top left corner of the screen
    2. Click "Preferences"
    3. Click "Accounts"
    4. Select your account that isn't sending properly
    5. In "Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)" there will be two options - Gmail & Gmail (offline)
    Make sure that "Gmail" is selected and NOT "Gmail (offline)"
    If you navigate to another section in Preferences, it will ask you to SAVE - make sure you save your changes!
    It worked for me, hope it works for you!
