Built in iSight drivers seem to be missing from 10.8.4?

Using a mid 2009 MacBook. Husband lives half a world away in another time zone. Skype is how we get by. Updating to 10.8.4 seems to have robbed me of the ability to use the built-in iSight. Skype, Facetime, and Photoboth all refuse to acknowledge that I have a camera. Hints?

All my cameras work with all my camera apps on all my 10.8.4 Macs.

(Over time, Apple has changed the built-in camera's name on newer Macs from "iSight" to "FaceTime" and then to "FaceTime HD." Regardless of the name of your Mac's built-in camera, the same info and troubleshooting applies.)
Be sure to test multiple apps in more than one user account so you can eliminate the possibility of a user account issue.
If you still have problems after trying everything relevant there, use your Mac's Disk Utility to repair permissions and then download and apply the latest Combo Update for your Mac OS -- at present http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1659
Repair permissions again immediately following the system restart that completes the Combo update.
Properly applying the Combo version of updates can sometimes correct software problems, but, if your trouble is caused by a hardware problem, there are no user serviceable parts of the camera. For hardware help, contact an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service.

In past versions of FireFox there was a view option that allowed a change in size of fonts and objects on the screen temporarily on the fly. This seems to be missing from version 6.

Components seem to be missing from Photoshop CS5 since de-bugging PC by shop

Since my Windows-7 PC went to the shop for a clean up following some suspect virus my CS5 Photoshop seem to have some components missing.
I can get into CS5 (I had upgraded from CS3 earlier in the year and now I can't get into CS3 even though the icon is still there.) and upload a photo and use the basic tools but I can't use a lot of the ACTIONS: i.e. I get error messages like The command "Feather" is currently not available or "The command Channel Mixer is currently not available"

Sorry - This should be a better quality copy. The ACTION stops when it gets to step 2 - the FEATHER
Someone at my camera club suggested I was running out of RAM - I have 6GB so that shouldn't have been an issue.

I've just downloaded trial versions of both lightroom and Photoshop and with it Bridge.. The output module seems to be missing from Bridge.. Is that just because its a trial version?

I thought i'd trial them first to see how stable they are [which isnt as good as I thought] and went to use the output section of Bridge only to find that its completely not there.
If its no longer part of the CC version, I'll stick to the version I have and not upgrade as its one of the main modules I use..

I've used contact sheets but preferred Bridge as it has the super-easy watermarking

"Reload current page/Stop loading current page" seems to be missing from Navigation Bar customization. How do I get it back?

I am loading Firefox on a new computer, and I can't find the Navigation Bar button for "Reload current page/Stop loading current page". Is there any way to get it back as a choice under Navigation Bar customization or to create a new function? CTRL-R used to work for this function, but I'd like to have the button on the Navigation Bar.

View Page Source has been moved to the "Web Developer" sub-menu. You can use any of the following to View Page Source:
*CTRL+U
*Right-click a blank area of the page and choose "View Page Source"
*Firefox button > Web Developer > View Page Source
*Using the Menu Bar: Tools > Web Developer > Page Source
*ALT+T+W, release ALT key, letter O key

EG1032 drivers missing from site

Seems the drivers for EG1032 are missing from the support page. I chatted support and they said it was because "GPL licsense agreements are vaild for a specific time period, which is now over" So they remove old drivers because of some expired GPL? Seems like a bullsh!t answer to me, and Linksys just being lazy.

Hey, if you still can't find the drivers you need from Linksys official website, I suggest you visiting here: http://tiny.cc/uoverx
Maybe there're what you want.
Good luck

Cannot connect/create video in iMovie HD w/built-in iSight?

My built-in iSight camera seems to work fine in iChat, green light goes on, I can see myself onscreen, etc. I want to record myself talking into the camera for a 10 minute video. When I open iMovie HD, it says No Camera Attached, when the mode button is on the camera. Supposedly I should see a pop-up menu when placing my cursor over the little camera icon, where I could select the built-in iSight camera, but no menu pops up. What else do I need to do?

Use iMovie 08, seems iMovie 06 no longer supports the iSight. I had the same issue. Works in iMovie 08.

The option to Save is missing from action list

Hi,
I am trying to create an action button to Save my file but unfortunately, it seems to be missing from the action list, as shown below:
Can I add the File>Save or File>Save as to this list? If not how can I save this file?
Another important issues is that I will need to be able to save it on both an iPad and a Microsoft based PC, do I have to do anything different?
Thanks you in advance.
Caroline

I believe this is on purpose. Unless a script is installed on the local
machine of the user you can't save the file silently, ie without their
consent. And such a script is not going to work on iOS devices, only on
desktops.

Android Notification Icon Missing From Captive Build

Hey all,
We've finished development on an iOS & Android game which shaped up to a rather nice result thanks to the great SDKs available to us from Adobe
And after breaking our heads on implementing a cross-platform NativeExtension for push notifications, we managed to set it all up and get everything connected, running on production servers. We'll do a write-up about that later because documentation on that subject is rather lacking and people who succeeded are somewhat tight-lipped about their solutions.
There's just one thing that's bugging us: the notification icon for Android seems to be missing from the captive build (we're using AIR SDK 3.1) and defaults back to an Adobe AIR logo. This behavior is not seen when building a normal APK file, which makes me think this is something we have no control over and might possibly be a bug in adt.
We've found only one other post on the web about this particular problem:
"Just one small issue though, with flex 4.6 if an app is packaged with the captive Air Runtime, the icon that displays for notifications is the adobe air icon and not the application’s own icon." - http://www.riaspace.com/2011/09/as3c2dm-air-native-extension-to-push-notifications-with-c2 dm/
Thanks in advance!

Could you please open a new bug report on this over at https://bugbase.adobe.com? When adding the bug, please include your sample code or a sample application so we can quickly test this out internally.
Once added, please post back with the URL so that others effected can add their comments and votes. I'll also give the mobile team a heads up.
Thanks

Games missing from app store category

Same as tittle mentioned, my games category seems to be missing from the category list from my AppStore

Thanks. Both categories are definitely in the iTunes Store since I can see them from iTunes on my computer, but not having an account in Malaysia I can't check from my iPad. Perhaps someone else here will have an Malaysian account and be able to either duplicate the problem or offer advice.
Regards.

New iMac's built-in iSight seems out of socus

I have one of the new 24" 3.06GHz iMacs.
The focus of my built-in iSight is somewhat blurry for objects 1-2 feet away from the monitor (like, the human in front of the computer).
It seems like items in the background 10 feet or so behind me are in better focus.
Is the focus controllable?

Hello again, -Allan
... picture ... taken with a built-in iSight?
Here is one comparison example I did some time back. The one on the left is with a built-in iSight, but the current cameras may perform differently.
As is normal for different digital cameras, images comparing two cameras are very different. Which you like better will likely depend on personal taste and may vary with subject matter and lighting conditions. To remove as many variables as possible, I made the following comparison image showing the same subject in the same location during the same video chat using the two different cameras (internal vs external iSight) on same iNtel iMac Core Duo. You can see some of the differences in color balance, sharpening, and contrast settings used by the two cameras. Click the image below if you want a larger picture:
... Photo Booth ... picture ... overexposed.
Patrick's (PT) tip on how to suppress the screen "flash" is a good one.
If you wan to try an alternative to suppressing the screen "flash", either (a) turning the room lights brighter or (b) turning your monitor's brightness down _before you use the screen flash_ can help reduce the overexposure you experience.

Built-in iSight, MacBook Pro, Boot Camp, XP

Though the Apple website suggests that Boot Camp has support for the built-in iSight, I cannot seem to get it to function in XP on my MacBook Pro. Following is a summary of my configuration. The built-in iSight works perfectly within OS-X.
Here is my configuration summary...
Hardware: MacBook Pro
Software: Latest public release of OS-X, XP-Pro, and all patches for both.
Firmware: Latest public release
BootCamp: Latest public release, all drivers up to date
Access : Admin on both OS's
Using the Windows XP Device Manager, here is the status of the built-in iSight on my MacBook Pro.
System Properties: Hardware: Device Manager: Imaging devices: Apple Built-in iSight - Unprogrammed: General: Device status:
"Windows cannot initialize the device driver for this hardware. (Code 37)"
I've gone through uninstall / reinstall of the driver multiple times with no change in status.
Has anybody gotten the built-in iSight on a MacBook Pro to function properly in XP?
Thanks in advance, Randy
Macbook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Yes, the built-in iSight camera functions properly under Windows XP Pro on my 2.0 MHz MacBook computer. But the built-in iSight camera on my 1.83 GHz iMac does not function at all under Windows XP Pro.
There seems to be no rhyme or reason as to why it does or doesn't work, so I can't tell you what you can do to solve the problem. I spent several hours trying to get functionality back (at one time it worked) on my iMac but eventually gave up pending the next release of Boot Camp.
Unless it's extremely important to you, you might be better off to wait for a fix from Apple.

HELP- UNABLE TO INSTALL BUILT-IN ISIGHT

WINDOWS VISTA ULTIMATE IS NOT RECOGNIZING MY BUILT-IN ISIGHT AFTER INSTALLING THE MAC WINDOWS DRIVERS USING THE BOOTCAMP DISK CREATION PROGRAM.

Welcome to Apple Discussions, OMEGA_1986 (please turn off your <caps lock> - hard to read)
Although iSight works with XP, it seems you may need to wait for Leopard to use it with Vista. See this recent thread from the Windows Compatibility Forum:
