Can't get web cam to work with Yahoo messenger

I can't get my web cam to work with my Yahoo messenger but it opens up with the Cam assistant thats all it will do.
Can someone help me with this problem and get it working with Yahoo messenger?

Hello
Before you start MSN disable Camera Assistant Software. When MSN starts try please to check cam functionality under Audio and Video Setup. On step 3 you will have Webcam Setup.
Please select there Chicony USB 2.0 Camera.
The camera should start and in test window you should have picture.
Can you use it now?

How do I get my WEBCAM to work with YAHOO Messenger!!??

Someone please help. I have been trying for ages to get a webcam to work on Yahoo messenger but to no avail. I recently purchased a new webcam that stated it was usable with MAC OSX.
Still Yahoo does not seem to give me any option to broadcast my webcam. I was using Yahoo 2.5 before and I just downloaded and started to use Yahoo 3.0......still nothing. All outgoing webcam options are grayed out" on any of the yahoo messenger menues.
I used to go in the chatrooms on yahoo and be able to view and be viewed on webcam. Now that I switched to an ibook with OSX...I CAN DO NONE OF THAT anymore and there seems to be no workable solutions in sight ( I searched all the yahoo databanks as well as Mac discussion archives).
The cam seems to work on AIM but nothing on Yahoo messenger
Please, one of you mac geniuses come to my rescue
Additional info: I'm on an ibook G4 (2004), operating system OSX 10.3.9; processor speed - 1.2 Ghz PowerPC; 1.25 GB Ram

It was listed under the heading "USB Webcam for Apple iMac Mac Mini PowerBook MacBook" and you can see it in more detail or bid on it at:

You posted in the OS X 10.3 forum instead of the Mac Pro forum. To get answers to your question, next time post in the proper forum. See https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa I'll request that Apple relocate your post.
What OS X version are you using?

Is it possible to get an iSight camera to work with Yahoo Messenger?

Totally new to PC here. Been a Macuser all my computer life, but needed a second computer for work. Not thrilled, but there it is.
So, I'm wondering if the isight camera is PC compatible, and if so, how and what drivers do I install? Or do I just go out and by a PC camera?

Hello maurice493windows ML
Until Tony gets back with you, here is some info you can consider.
iSight does not need an installer CD because it was sold by Apple for use with Macs. All software for iSight is built into Mac OS X, so no separate installer CD was provided.
Apple's Boot Camp software that comes with the iNtel Macs has drivers for XP, but I am uncertain whether you have one of the iNtel Macs. If you do have access to an iNtel Mac and the software that came with it, you can extract the driver using the info Tony provided in this response to "Lennysapple" here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4207189&#4207189
This apparently will work with a PC running Windows XP, but I have not yet seen reports of it working properly with Windows Vista. You may, as Tony suggests, need to experiment to find out.
<hr width="75%">
I do not recommend iSight on a PC. If you have too much difficulty, a USB webcam that is compatible with YM for your PC may be a quicker and easier choice. Many of the PC compatible USB webcams are cheap, and they were designed to work with PCs.
This Google Search returned links, such as this one, which contains the following statement that may indicate more problems for you:
... Apple specific hardware will not work, such as the iSight, Bluetooth, etc. due to the fact that they're written for 32-bit Windows XP SP2.
I do not know whether that is still true, but it does support my suggestion that it may be easier to buy a PC compatible USB webcam.

Newbie: How can I get the camera to work with skype on macbook air

Sorry that I'm a beginner at this. I just can't find the answer to it, but I'm sure it's common question. Since the macbook air has a camera built in, how come it isn't showing up on my new skype account?

Go into an Apple Store if under a year old from purchase. They can assist you

Does iSight work with Yahoo Messenger?

Before I buy, can anybody tell me does iSight work with Yahoo Messenger? Thanks.

It does for me (as well as Yahoo! Messenger for Mac works for anyone.)
Take a look at the responses to mike jones6's thread, iSight Compatability? The responses there will give you a more expanded answer your question.
If you have more specific questions after reading this thread, post back here, and we will be happy to try to help further.
Depending on what you want to do with Yahoo, searching iSight Discussions for "Yahoo" will give MANY threads that may be of interest. One example: Compatibility of cams

I can totally understand the need of a working camera, Andrewmartin! Let's review your options! Do you have insurance coverage? This can help with replacing the phone because of the water damage. If so, file a claim here http://bit.ly/07CrqPK .

I have an Retina display MacBook Pro with HMDI out port. I also have an HDMI to Component cable with Audio Plugs. How can I get HDMI out to work with this cable when plugged into the Component and Audio ports on my TV?

I have an Retina display MacBook Pro with HMDI out port. I also have an HDMI to Component cable with Audio Plugs. How can I get HDMI out to work with this cable when plugged into the MacBook Pro and connected to the TVs Component and Audio in ports.

Will not work. To my knowledge, dual converting like that isn't supported. The Mac must detect the connected video output device and that sort of info cannot be done across an analog component uni-directional connection.

How can I get my ipod to work with itunes?

When I connect my ipod classic into my new computer it seems that itunes does not recognize it. How can I get my ipod to work with itunes? I'm afraid to disconnect my ipod because the display is saying Do Not Disconnect.

1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
3. Check the USB cable
4 Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job
7. Check for third-party software conflicts.

<jsp:scriptlet>

ErrorTrap = false;
</jsp:scriptlet>
I can't get this script to work with the XML stype jsp tags. It keeps telling me the <jsp> tags are untermintaed. Is there a special trick to fix this or do I have to use the non-XML type tags?

Sorry, I didn't mean to put the extra " in the out.println text string. :-/

How can I get elements 11 to work with 16 bits photos?

In the expert mode of Photoshop Elements 11, I can only work with 8 bits photos. How can I get Elements 11 to work with 16 bits photos?

No, you can still buy photoshop cs6 (perpetual license) if one doesn't want to subscribe to the cloud version (photoshop cc version 14)
Either way is expensive compared to photoshop elements.
