Cam detection in mac OS X

I've succesfully plugged in my new webcam and it works
perfectly with IM applications.
But Flash Player doesn't recognize it for web based video
chat. It instead only proposes to use my integrated cam.
Any help is welcomed...

How do we get this request on the to-do list ? Either that or code it all on HTML and put it on the array as a web server. Like all the little $29.00 home routers do.
I can't believe this blew right by StorageTek. Supposedly 20% of the market uses Apple nowadays, and is by far the Unix guru's choice. But they've got a CAM version for Windows 2000 and Linux desktop? If any of you Mac users have to use CAM in a hurry, you're in for a rude awakening when you see about every desktop OS on the download list except OSX.
I got away without a PC for 7 years now, Visio being the only app that was missing- that was fixed with OmniGraffle. So now I'm going to have to go by a friggin Windows machine just to run CAM? nah, something's wrong here. An no, I don't want dual-boot anything on my Mac, especially hack-trolling Windows.
CAM is Java client code. I know someone has GOT to have made a few hacks to the installer to get it to run. Wouldn't the Linux versions be the easiest to modify? I know it's been done come on - speak up! lol

  • How do I remove all photos from iPhone 5 camera roll to Mac?

    How do I remove all 4000 photos from iPhone 5 camera roll to Mac?

    Photos/videos in the Camera Roll can be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera. When there are photos/videos in the iPhone's Camera Roll, it is also detected as a digital camera when connected to your computer.
    With a Mac, you can use iPhoto for this if you use iPhoto for photo management on your Mac. If not, you can use the Image Capture application for the import. Both include an option to delete all photos/videos from the Camera Roll after the import process is complete.

  • Camera Detected - Scanning Contents then crash!

    Just got back from a long 4 day weekend. Eager to import my videos I get this. I have tried numerous times. Starting iMovie first and then turing on camera. I moved the USB from the hub to my MBP main port to no avail. About 20-30 seconds after getting Camera Detected - Scanning Contents, iMovie crashes. I did have one 60 fps clip on the camera so I moved it off the camera card. That means I can see the camera from my mac and the videos. Its just that iMovie is chocking on it.
    So what can I do now? This has worked flawlessly before. My camera is a Sanyo Xacti HD1010.
    Does anyone have some ideas about what may be wrong or how to work around? Is there a way to tell iMovie not to look for a camera so I can just import the movies via the menu?
    --Mickey

    I developed my own workaround. Since the content recorded is not true AVCHD, I was able to copy the off of the SD card to my External HD and then I was able to import via iMovie. I still don't understand why I suddenly couldn't pull of the camera. I did have about 4.7 gb of clips. Oh well - will try again after I record some more content.

  • External HD can't be detected on Mac but on WinXP

    I have an external HD ( NTSF ) running USB 2.0. It can't be detected on Mac but it's okay on WinXP side ( BootCamp ). I have tried all USB sockets behind but no use. As I remember, it used to work but I haven't used it for awhile & now can't be detected.
    What else should I check or do ?

    my iMac has the USB hard disk problem like yours too. but the case may be different, the situation is as below:
    1). All 3 USB ports on Back of my iMac can not recognize my Old USB HD(80G, Fat32), but it worked before. and difference is they all works well with my other 2 USB HDs(40G, 320G), flash disks, digital camera, and phone.
    2). the HD can be find in System INFO. but not at Finder and Disk Utilities.
    3). the Old HD can be recognized at my Keyboard's USB port, but very slow.
    4). the Old HD works well under Windows(bootcamp) and my dell notebook
    5). my OS is 10.4.10 now.
    6). I remember, I once switch off Disk power before normal eject it first, and several long time usages(render movies over 4 hours of continuous usage)
    7). I tried "USB probe" and reset PRAM by command-option-p-r after power on. but no luck.
    8). I tried reformat it to both FAT32 and MAC Format, but they don't work too.
    9). I tried replace the HD with other one (80G Fat32, I have two Hard Disk sharing with One USB Case), no luck again.
    I'm very frustrated, because I'm not sure if new apple patch(if it will be one day) will fix my problem. since mine is a little different from yours and many others in this furom...

    • Only if your video camera supports it.  Depending on how your camera works, you may need to add preview software to your Mac to use this feature.
    • Alternatively, your camera may also be able to record directly into your Mac while you are monitoring the Mac's display.
    • If you are using a consumer camcorder that supports HDMI monitoring, a small HDTV might be an simpler solution than your Mac.  For an example of how this is done, see http://youtu.be/GVpSkZD6qE4.
    • The retailer who sold you your video camera may have other suggestions.
    • If you need more professional results, an external preview monitor will offer more capability on compatible cameras.

  • I have an optical mouse that came with my Mac Pro plugged into the USB port on the keyboard. After a year of working normally, the trackball all of a sudden stopped scrolling down. It scrolls up just fine, but not down. Any thoughts?

    I have an optical mouse that came with my Mac Pro, the only thing plugged into the USB port on the keyboard. After a year of working normally, the trackball all of a sudden stopped scrolling down. It scrolls up just fine, but not down. Any thoughts?

    Well
    I tried all of the suggestions, sort of. I did not have alcohol wipes, but I did take alcohol and pour some ona white paper towel and then rolled the mouse touch ball aroound and that finally cleared up the problem.  Just inverting it on paper did not do the reick, it needed some help with the alcohol.  Of course the probelm is the debris that gets inside and it really needs to come out.
    This is a huge problem for RIM devices users too.

    But on a hunch, System Preferences>Network, unlock the Lock if need be, see if you get New Port Detected, or click the little + icon and see if you can add Ethernet.
    If it works & that is the Interface used for Internet, click on the little Gear icon>Set Service Order, drag Ethernet to the top.

  • Using an external hard drive to connect the camera to the Mac Book Pro

    I am about three weeks away from a 9 to 4 pin firewire cable. In the meantime, I am logging and capturing from my Canon AX HI through my external hard drive. I am not super amazed at the quality of the image, it's noisy.
    I am using HDV tapes, and I don't beleive the lighting should be causing the issue.
    Does anyone know if using the external hard drive to connect the camera to my Mac Book Pro is compromising the quality of the image? Can I expect a beautiful strong image on a lap top?
    Thanks for any help.

    There is ZERO quality loss when you capture via firewire. It is a digital transfer of files...that's it. The issue you have is that you are trying to judge the quality of your image based on what you see with your computer monitors, and that is simply the LAST thing you should be doing.
    And since this is HDV, the only way to monitor that is with an HD card or I/O device, and an HD monitor or TV. Like the Matrox MXO2 mini or AJA I/O Express mini and HDTV.

  • How do i get video from my sony hx100 digital camera to my mac? after connecting the camera via the supplied usb cable, iMovie shows icons for 5 videos, but none will load.

    i've connected the camera to the mac using the supplied usb cable. imovie shows 5 icons for videos but all of them have the red circle with slash through them and the box to import them is grayed out.

    Get a nice Sony miniDV camcorder. It is not too expensive; it is small and easy to carry around to shoot your video. Most importantly, it will be instantly compatible with iMovie. You don't have to install any software, just connect it via FireWire (Sony calls this iLink) and you are good to go!
    I have had several Sonys and love them. You don't need one with fancy editing capabilities because you will edit your movies in iMovie. Just be sure that it has AV In and Out so you can import and export back to the camcorder.
    My current version is the small DCR HC-26. There are newer versions of that HC-30something and 40something. Look at the specs on Sony's website
    Some of them require the use of a dock to import and export. I am not really fond of that feature. I like just connecting directly to the camera.

  • I opened and edited a pic from my Olympus camera onto my mac (not in iPhoto).  I zoomed in

    I opened and edited a pic from my Olympus camera onto my mac (not in iPhoto).  I zoomed in and rotated the pictures and when I tried to click out of them, I got a message that the file was locked because I hadn't used it recently and "If you want to make changes to this document, click Unlock. To keep the file unchanged and work with a copy, click Duplicate."  I clicked "unlock" and then another message came up with the options of OK, Cancel, or Revert.  If I hit OK, I couldn't go back to my original picture.  I clicked OK. 
    Then later I tried to open the picture in iPhoto and it doesn't recognize it, even though it is still a JPEG file.  It still shows on my camera, but shows as a bland square in iPhoto.  Have I lost the ability to open it in iPhoto?  Will I be able to go to a store and print it out from my camera?

    No one can answer that since you only provide problems and questions
    we need to know exactly what you have, what you did and what happened including exact error messages

    What software did you use and exactly what did you do and what exactly was the  error message? There is a good chance that you will need help for the support for the program you used. Where was the photos you were editing not using iPHoto?

    What version of iPhoto  Had you imported the photo into iPhoto - iPhoto is not a photo viewer and can not open photos that have not been imported
    as to how your camera and the store work - those are qestions for them -
