Any other ichat and photobooth effects ?

More iChat effects 2.01 ***** and messed up my computer so it cannot be that.
Is there any other effects you can add that either:
A. Dont suck and mess up
and
B. Dont ruin my computer
I was just wondering if there were any different types of effects you can get, for photo booth and iChat. Thnx.

Hi,
For those running Tiger http://www.plumamazing.com/mac/chatfx
For later versions http://ichatfx.com/iChatFX/Home.html
These all are in fact Quartz Files created in Quartz Composer which gets installed if you Install the Developer Tools (on your Install Disk in Option Installs Folder (Expand the window)
Once you have Quartz Composer installed you can create your own.
You can Google for Quartz Composer files.
However as Quartz Composer can make Screen Savers and iTunes Visulizers you may have to dig a bit deeper on sites you find.

Location of iChat and Photobooth Effects

Does anyone know where the video/photo effects used by iChat and Photobooth are saved? I'm experimenting with quartz composer and I'd like to be able to see how apple did their effects. I've looked everywhere I can think of but I can't find them.

Choose Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu and enter /Applications/Photo Booth.app/Contents/Resources/ as the path; more are available by using iChat instead of Photo Booth or using /System/Library/Compositions/ as the complete path.

IChat and Photobooth effects- Broken! Not all but some

Okay so these effects work while iChatting and while looking at the screen in Photobooth. When you try to take a picture however, the result is either negative or white. The pictures looks alright up top right after its taken but down below when you look at the little polaroid icon the picture is negative or white. Also after you click on the little icon to review the picture it no longer looks fine up top.

I don't want to delete these effects. I know how to do that but I want to keep them! I know the pathways and everything. I think they may just be broken because I now have Snow Leopard. I'm not sure when these were installed but I know it was before I installed Snow Leopard. I think they were downloaded from the Apple website though.
Basically my question is, is there anyway to reinstall these effects or change a setting so that they work?
I could put on a screenshot, I have one I just don't know how to put it into the post. If you can explain then I could add that later if it would help.

Hi,
They are the MoreiChatEffects.
They are causing problems in PhotoBooth mainly but also in iChat.
As you know they are in the Compostions folder you will know they are Quartz files.
If you Install Developer Tools off the Install Disk > Options Installs folder you can open them.
It seems they are not fully Intel or rather not fully integrated with the OS in Snow Leopard.
Older Quartz files like the ones that come with this Utility http://www.scriptsoftware.com/chatfx/ DO NOT work with the OS above 10.4.9
Both these seem to be because Apple have made changes in the way the basic Video stream is captured for each OS.
With the Chat FX ones I made a Duplicate (Finder > File Menu) and then played around.
If I was going to do it with these I would take an Apple one and keep the Input model and Output module and replace it with an MoreiChatEffects one to see if I could get it to work in Snow Leopard (Photobooth and iChat).
I would keep an Eye on the web site for more info http://ismileys.free.fr/moreichateffects/
The header seems to say that some may not work.
It does also say Intel but nothing I saw about Snow Leopard.

I can't change my apple id password because my security answers don't match. It won't give me any other options and just keeps asking for the answers. What do I do?

I get Singed out of eBay.com when I bid and when I go to a other item.. I can be on "my eBay" and just click on any other item and boom I'm on a page that says I need to sing in..if I click back it brings me back to "my eBay" and I am still singed in but if I was not to click back and I click on sing in I have a page saying I singed out.. sooo I do the obvious and clean out the cache and so on, disable all and then just some addons and try again and just to be sure I opened IE9 for the first time ever on this year old pc and it works fine so I know the problem is with FF4 but I'm out of ideas so what are my options?

Please help me on this one & Thank you in advance to anyone who helps me I appreciate it allot!

The Get Info. fields show up gray if the files is locked and iTunes knows it can't edit the file. Make sure the files are not marked as read only and, if necessary grant both your account and system full access to all files and subfolders of your media folder.
You can set Part of a Compilation for multiple tracks from the Options tab of Get Info.
See Grouping tracks into albums for tips on getting iTunes organized.

I can't text a contact but can voice phone them. I don't have the problem with any other contact and the contact is not blocked. I have an iphone5.0 OS 8.1.3

I can't text a contact but can voice phone them. I don't have the problem with any other contact and the contact is not blocked. I have an iphone5.0 OS 8.1.3. I used to be able to text them with no problem. The only difference I can think is that this problem may have started since I downloaded the OS I am using now

My elderly mother hss EXTREMELY limited vision and is a technophobe. I am considering an iPhone with Siri. Can I turn off everything else so she can use only the phone app and voice dialing and not accidentally open any other app and screw something

My elderly mother has EXTREMELY limited vision and is a technophobe. I am considering an iPhone with Siri. Can I turn off everything else so she can use only the phone app and voice dialing or Siri and not accidentally open any other app and screw something up.

I'm asking, in all seriousness, why do you think your mother needs an iPhone? Honestly, if your mother is, as you described her, a technophobe, I would recommend against getting an iPhone or any other smartphone. I've spent a fair bit of time teaching older folks to use smartphones. If they are interested in learning, it's fine. If they have the phone because their kids or grandkids thought it was a good idea but they are afraid of the phone or not interested in its features, it doesn't go well at all.
Many basic phones have voice dialing. Obviously, it doesn't do all the things Siri does but it may be much less intimidating for your mom. Also, basic phones have hardware keys. Even someone with limited vision can learn the keyboard on such a phone. From the sound of your first post, all she will be doing is making phone calls.
Best of luck.

HT2534 I have just created an Apple Id for itunes, it is allowing me to get to the debit card stage but they no longer accept Visa Debit, there is no other option for me as i dont have any other cards and there isnt a 'none' option! HELP!!

I have just created an Apple Id for itunes, it is allowing me to get to the debit card stage but they no longer accept Visa Debit, there is no other option for me as i dont have any other cards and there isnt a 'none' option! HELP!!

How did you create the account ? Unless you followed the instructions on the page that you post from exactly then you won't get the 'none' option and you will need to enter payment details - those instructions won't work on existing accounts.
I tried those instructions a week ago in response to another thread and I got the 'none' option on it e.g. on my computer's iTunes I logged out of my existing account, found a free app in the store, clicked on its 'free' price, clicked on 'create Apple id' on the popup, and after agreeing to the terms and filling in my details I was able to select 'none' as my payment option and download a free app with it.

ITunes cannont backup the iPhones because a session could not be started with the iPhone" I've never connected my phone to any other computer and it worked fine a the other day. Help Please?

Video is backwards in iChat and Photobooth

It was just brought to my attention that when using any built in iSight camera with iChat or photobooth the video is actually reversed....hold something with writing up to the camera and you will see everything backwards.
Does anyone know how to reverse the video to rectify this?
On photobooth I found an option to flip pics taken but not video.
Thanks

Since video in iChat hit the application in iChat 2.0 the Video pic you see of your self has been Mirrored.
It is th normal function of iChat.
AS you have found Photo Booth does the same but does give you the option of Flipping the pic if words are involved.

The new photobooth effects show up in iChat and Photobooth but do not do anything at all

I'm asking for a friend. The effects show up and everything but when selected they act as if I've selected original. Is there a fix yet?

What they do is detect your face and add an overlay graphic to it. Make sure that you are in a well lit area, or these effects will not work. Also make sure your face can be seen easily, no glasses, sunglasses, hoodies w/ hoods up, etc. Hope this helped.

Emailing photo booth pics from mail!! and photobooth effects

hi all, enjoying Leopard but can't work something out. in photo booth you can email photos no bother within photobooth, but if your in mail and open the media browser and click on photo booth none of the pics i've taken since Leopard(and i think some before) are included?
and does anyone else feel that the effects work far better in ichat than they do in photo booth.
and what happened to the effect where you can be someone else(i think they did it with the microsoft dude in the keynote)

This is why you need to backup, preferably more than one.
You can try using a Data Recovery program.

ISight (iChat and PhotoBooth) cam is outputing CRAZY colors!

Hi Everyone!
I'm having an annoying issue. My HD recently crashed, and I just got it back from Apple. Fortunately I had TM running, so I got almost everything back. However.. after getting the machine up, and updating back to x.5.2.. my iSight is outputing CRAZY colors. Mainly yellow, grainy, nightvisiony looking image. It occurs in all video apps, I have tried resetting my SMC (although I have no way of knowing if I did or not), and jillions of restarts. I had this happen once before, and the SMC fix did it. Does anyone know a way to get the camera back to usable? Any thoughts would be GREATLY appreciated.

Hello Steve
... complete list of files (cache, library etc) that Isight draws upon.
I do not think that iSight uses ANY caches. I suppose the apps that operate your iSight might.
The best iSight technical info source I know is this search of the Apple Developer Connection. You may be able to get more specific help by becoming an ADC Member if you are not one already.
As an alternative to researching the ADC info, I offer another thought you may have already considered or tried. If I understand correctly what you have been doing at this thread in the Time Machine Forum, you believe that your iSight problem might be correctable by resetting preferences or clearing caches, but you have decided not to attempt resolution by deleting ALL system preferences and caches. If you think it might be beneficial, you could try an application like Yasu that can give you some control over which preferences and caches you can reset without using the terminal or deleting items generated and managed by OS X.
Finally, Steve, please allow me a word of caution for other readers. You seem to be an experienced OS X user who is more comfortable working at lower levels of OS X than many of us. For benefit of other readers who may be less knowledgeable, it is generally a bad idea to move, modify, rename, or delete any item outside your User > Documents folder unless you know what you are doing. While doing so will not harm your computer, if you damage your data or system files, you will need to restore them, which can be time consuming. Until you have enough knowledge to safely work with them manually, I suggest that you let OS X and your applications manage the files for you as they were designed to do.
Cheers,
EZ Jim

HT4993 Just got an iphone 4 and only downloaded one app, facebook. and now when i try to download any other app and i enter my password it gives me an unknown error. what is going on?

Why wont my appstore let me download any apps? I know my password is right but it keeps giving me " Unknown error." and I have to either cancel or retry and every time I retry i get the same thing.

Hello jsimmonds05,
I was looking into our resources for information that may help resolve the issue and have a few things for you to try. First I would start with the iPhone Troubleshooting Assistant found here: http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/phone/#section_1, at section 1 and work your way down as needed.
Restart iPhone
To restart iPhone, first turn iPhone off by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button until a red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider and iPhone will turn off after a few moments.
Next, turn iPhone on by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Is iPhone not responding? To reset iPhone, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If your device does not turn on or displays a red battery icon, try recharging next
Just in case that doesn't get the App store to function correctly, you can use this article titled iTunes: Advanced Store Troubleshooting found here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3297?locale=en_US&viewlocale=en_US.
All the Best,
Sterling
