Are there any webcams that work on a dial-up modem with OSX Tiger?

I've seen some discussions about specific webcams, but my problem is I'm on a dialup modem, without broadband. Though webcams exist that will work adequately for me with OS 9.x, there does not appear to be anything anywhere in the market that will work for with Tiger. The closest are the Logitech cams that stop at 10.2. Anybody have any suggestions?

Firewire cameras are natively supported in OSX.
Many USB cameras are supported using 3rd party
driver
such as <a</div>

You can also get drivers from ioxperts
Tim,
Thanks for the quick response. However I was not
asking about digital cameras, I was asking about
webcams. Am I missing something?
Yes you are missing something. I was talking about
firewire webcams doh!

I've been following detailed threads on specific
webcams, and have not seen anyone have success for my
situation.
What do you need a webcam for?
Tim,
Thanks again. I'm learning a lo already by following your suggestions. I have no high-power needs, just basic video chattiing, but I'm in the sticks out here, on a 56K dial-up modem. Can't even get broadband. Many of the cams I've seen require high-speed internet. I can continue searching.
I will mark this question as answered by you, but if you have any particiular cameras to suggest, I will appreciate your inputs. I had already looked at Macworld without success.

Are there any apps that make it now possible to scroll with Mountain Lion ?

I just gave up on a project that required me to be able to scroll through a Senate bill. I'll probably go back, but it just shouldn't be so difficult, so painful. and I'm not talking about the bill's language. No, it's just Apple's decision to do away with the USEABLE search arrows that existed before Mountain Lion, and, yes, I know that you can use the little up and down triangles--sometimes--for this purpose. I have written to Apple about this on more than one occasion, but I never felt that this would do any good. Anyway, I came here to see if anyone knows of an app that has been developed to overcome this strange, almost malicious, behavior of Apple's. Are there any apps I can use on my iMac for scrolling? If not why not? I know I have a lot of company in my disgust with Apple's behavior, so I have to there is some prohibitively difficult problem that makes such a fix impossible. Is that the reason why no one has come to the rescue of Apple's suffering customers?

For very long documents in PDF or on a web page, I just lean on the space bar for big jumps (Shift-spacebar goes up), or on the down arrow keys for short scrolling. If I'm on my laptop, the trackpad provides both large jumps and fine control. If I'm on my desktop, I love my scroll wheel mouse.
In apps like Word, you can't scroll with the spacebar because you need it to type spaces, so I just use the Page Up/Page Down keys. On short Mac keyboards you press Fn+Up Arrow or Fn+Down Arrow to page up/down.
There are so many more and better ways to scroll now compared to the 1980s when the only way was to click-click-click over and over again on stupid scroll arrows. If it stopped scrolling it meant you had to re-aim the mouse because the mouse slipped a little and the arrow is no longer hitting the arrow. If you wanted to scroll up, you had to move the mouse quite a ways because the arrows were on opposite ends of the bar. Scroll arrows were the worst and least efficient way to scroll and I don't miss them at all.
I'm glad we have so many superior alternatives now where, unlike scroll arrows, you don't even have to look at the screen to scroll quickly and accurately. Today, the only good use for a scroll bar is to tell you how far you are through the document.

Are there any apps that allow you to dial direct from tapping a photo such as a photo phone book?

Are there any apps with a photo phone book that allows you to tap a photo to dial?

How could I put this in as a feature request? Should I try to find the existing bug in bugzilla and comment on that, or should I open a new bug? I would really love to see this happen, I think it is a worthwhile and usefult feature.
I tried searching bugzilla for a bit but I could not find the relevant bug. If you know it, please link to it.
Thanks!

Are there any scanners that work on a MacBook Pro with Mac OS 10.7.5?

I was using a CanoScan Lide 35 scanner on my laptop just fine until a couple of weeks ago and now it is hit and miss with it. I was looking for a scanner that would be compatible with Mac OS 10.7.5 and I haven't found anything that looks like it works. I don't have time to read every single Google link that comes up and was hoping that someone here could help me out. I'm looking for a scanner that is on the low end of the price scale but also good enough to do some graphic work. I'd appreciate any info I can get. Thanks!
Erik

You will fnd that most scanners from the name brands work...I have an Epson Photo scan that works just fine with Mac OS X 10.7.5, 10.8.5, and 10.9.2...but I always use the included Image Capture application, found in Finder > Applications.

Are there any apps that work with the G2 to block calls reliably?

I know this subject has been covered but, I have been using Call Control for years since I bought Pro way back when. Worked fine up until I got the G2. Now it says that the only proven method of blocking calls is using MUTE CALLS. The send to voicemail and pickup/hangup options are NOT recommended. I have tried a few others, but they all seem to hijack the call screen. I'm not overly worried about Caller ID features in an app. I know Call Control is in beta with a new version that shows ID, but it's rough and not aesthetically pleasing. Blocking texts isn't a big deal for me either. I know a lot of these apps block texts, but require you to use their messaging portion of their app. Anyone know of a proven pickup/hangup or send to VM app that works on G2?

Call Control works well, but being a beta tester I can tell you that features are changing. It's getting better, but even the Premium users are going to have to pay for lookups after x number credits. IOW, Premium users get a few credits per month and free users have to pay each time. Until that app decides to do right by the Premium users who have already paid for the app long ago I use Contactive because the ID seems better and more accurate than Call Control, Whitepages Current, Truecaller, LineWhoscall, and CallApp. Contactive doesn't have a direct pickup/hangup nor a send to VM, but the info is more correct and that means I can better block calls based on better info.

Are there any plugins that allow photoshop elements to read DDS files?

I have multiple DDS files that I have been trying to open in Photoshop Elements 8, and a window comes up and says that it cannot open it because it is the "wrong type of file". I would like to know if there are any plugins I can download to fix this problem. It would also be helpful if the plugin could save the file in a DDS format, too. I had been using a trial of Photoshop CS6 and I had a plugin for that, and I recently found an old disc that had Photoshop Elements 8 on it that I downloaded. Back to the point, are there any plugins that can do this?

The 32 bit version of this plugin should work in pse 8 if you on windows:

Is there any form that works like Jtable that can be written into the html

Is there any form that works like Jtable that can be written into the html or jsp format?
<INPUT TYPE="SUBMIT" NAME="command" VALUE=""> refer to a Sumbit Button.
There no such thing below "I think"but just dreaming
Is there something like
<INPUT TYPE="TABLESUBMIT" NAME="customer" VALUE={rowcolumn(1,3,"peter"),rowcolumn(last,"name","jane")}> ......

Keep dreaming. As long as you are using HTML you are stuck with
all of its limitations. Among these is the lack of a JTable.
You have several options:
1) Use an HTML <TABLE>. For plain text you just put the
text between <td></td> tags. For input you put the input
as <td><input...></td>.
2) Extend #1 by creating your own object to draw the table.
You can do this in either Java or JavaScript. There are several
examples on the internet of how to do this. Some even include
sorting by clicking the column headings.
3) If you really want to use a JTable then you can write a JApplet
and put it on your JSP page.

I have posted this annoying Robles to bugreport.apple.com. Hope I can get locution (although Apple normally will not respond):
On a software name Appfresh, it alerted me to update my MBPr 15 inches running latest OSX 10.8.2, with Chinese Word List Update 1.2. When I clicked on Software Pdate, app Store return No update available.
My system have Chinese Word List Update 1.0 installed, and on October 5, 2012, Chinese Word List Update 1.1 was released by Apple, as alerted through AppFresh. However, this update never get updated on m system. I have to manually download chinesewordlistupdate.pkg from reviews.cnet.com/macfixit and install it manually. By doing so, I have Chinese Word List Update 1.1 on my system.
The same problem occurred again today on November 5, 2012, where Chinese Word List Update is released by Apple. again, it fail to update from Software Update menu.
Can you please:
1. Explain why this problem occurred. This is so annoying.
2. Advise me how can I get this Chinese Word List Date to update to version 1.2. Can you please send me the chinesewordlistupdate.pkg for version 1,2 so that I can manually install it on my system?
3. How can I prevent similar problem with he subsequent version?
Why Apple don't make this update standard as other update?
Support please. Thank for response in advance

Are there any apps that install animated lock screens without jail breaking my iPhone 5?

Are there any apps that can install animated lock screens without jail breaking the iPhone 5?

I don't know of any way, except perhaps by using an animated GIF or PNG as your wallpaper. I've never tried it, though.
I don't recommend jailbreaking your phone, voiding your warranty, and risking ruining the phone just for this feature, however - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3743

Are there any applications that cleans up your macbook ?

I bought a macbook a 2 months ago.
I am wondering if there are any applications that cleans up my macbook. Like the ccleaner for windows.
Are there any ?

Ccleaner on Windows has a few functions:
1: Repairs the Registry
2: Cleans the caches
3: Secure Erases free space on the drive / deleted files.
OnyX for OS X.
1: OS X doesn't have a Registry to bork, but other things like Preference files, caches etc, can.
2: OnyX can clean the caches and check for corrupted Preference files, rebuilt ds_store files and other things, basically clean out all the automated stuff designed to make the computer faster so it can rebuild it in case it gets borked or may contain content you rather wish it didn't.
3: OnyX can Erase whats in the Trash, but not wipe free space on the drive, Apple's provided Disk Utility has a feature to to that.
So if your looking for something to clean your Internet tracks on OS X, first use the browser cleaning aspects, then OnyX cleaning, then a reboot to clear the OS X DNS cache then a Disk Utility > Wipe Free Space.
These features are not automated or intertwined with Firefox add-ons like Click2Clean is with CCleaner on Windows. You'll have to perform it manually.
http://www.titanium.free.fr/
Another option for totally cleaning one's system faster on OS X would be to use the free VirtualBox to run a free distro ISO of Linux (Ubuntu, Mint, MacBuntu etc) in OS X. Then once the distro is setup in the virtual machine, save a snapshot of this OS state to revert back to after browsing potentially malicious sites in Firefox (in Linux)
Reverting on takes only a few seconds, instead of the painfully long time OnyX can take, and ensures everything is included for removal, of course a DU free space wipe would be necessary for completeness.
