Cannot find an isight camera what other options do you recommend?
I heard the isight was the best but the apple guy told me they no longer make it as a stand alone.
Any suggestions would be great.
Thanks in advance and have a great weekend.
PS: does anyone know if apple is going to make something similiar down the road as a stand alone?
I was told that the problem with the isight is that it contains mercury. New environmental regulations, in Europe for example, mean that importing mercury containing items has become near impossible. I doubt if there will be a future stand alone isight.
But you can still find some isights in countries that do not follow the same regulations. I got mine in December while travelling in Taiwan. It took a bit of phoning around (called 5 stores) but I located 2 isights. If you know anyone travelling to Asia, ask them to look around for you.

trying to connect my iphone 4 to my home wifi network! my android phone gives me the option of pushing the arrows button on my router and on my android phone but cannot find the "push the arrows button" option on my iphone 4. is this option available?? and if so, where is it located???
No such option on an iPhone. Just go to Settings>wifi, tap the name (SSID) of your your home network from the list, then when prompted, enter the password.

Can I use built-in iSight camera with other apps?
Can I use built-in iSight camera with other apps?
How?
doesn't work in imovie or image captureHi Judson,
THe built in iSight will actually work with iMovie if you have the version of iMovie which comes with iLife 6. (see http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61929 for a mention)
There is a slightly clumsy "workaround" available for use with earlier versions of iMovie, but you need a dv cam to use it - see http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20051217210335199
I gather that "EvoCam" - http://www.evological.com/evocam.html - will also work directly with the built in iSight.
So too, should recent versions of QuicktimePro.
As for other apps, tell us what you wish to do with it. We may be able to come up with some suggestions.
Cheers

I recently upgraded to Mavericks and I now cannot find under the file menu the option to "Save As" in my Numbers application. Where did it go?
In many, many apps Apple has now created a confusing array of "save as..", "export", and "duplicate" all doing essentially the same thing - saving a new copy elsewhere possibly with format changes. Drives me nuts.
But its always there.

I have been using my apple TV successfully for 1 year. Today there was a message telling me I cannot sign in because the terms and conditions have changed. Please go to apple support for more info. However, I cannot find any info. What do I do next.
Wow, Karan Taneja, you've just embarrassed yourself on a worldwide support forum. Not only is your post ridiculous and completely inappropriate for a technical support forum, but it also shows your ignorance as to whom you think the audience is. Apple is not here. It's users, like you.
If you would have spent half the time actually reading the Terms of Use of this forum that YOU agreed to by signing up to post, as you did composing that usesless, inappropriate post, you (and the rest of us on this forum) would have been much better off. -
Safari and firefox 'cannot find the server' for every other page that i navigate to, unless I turn Wifi off and on. Once i reconnect to the network, the page loads, but after loading a few more pages, the same thing happens all over again.
This happens each and every time, on different Wifi networks, in different locations. On the other hand, I don't ever encounter this problem when I tether my laptop to my mobile phone's 3g/2g network using Personal Hotspot. How do I fix this?Try this DNS server ...
Open System Preferences > Network > Advanced > DNS
Click + and type:
208.67.222.222
Click + again and do the same.
208.67.220.220
Click OK.
Quit and relaunch both your browsers to test.
If that doesn't help, try here > iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections

Hello, hanliefromzaf.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Here is an article that I would recommend going through when experiencing this issue.

Why does Apple not give a list of error messages and possible solutions? I have the (-54) error continually that has suddenly appeared and cannot find a solution, even though other users seem to have the same problem.
This is a user to user forum. Apple isn't here and won't answer you. You need to contact Apple directly. You can use the Contact button at the bottom of the screen.

I Mini with an i7 processor. I would like to use Boot Camp to install windows based CAD software on my MAC. Would it be better to use a plugin external hard drive to load my software on and if so what hard drive would you recommend?
Thank you for your quick response. I can then use a ZIP drive for data storage. I want to keep as much of my hard drive free of data as possible.

Why is Adobe Flashplayer not working with Apple? Do you have an other flash program you recommend?
maj-brittfromsjöbo wrote:
Thank you for your interest in Adobe Flash Player. Unfortunately Apple does not allow Flash Player to be installed on iPhone or iPad.
May I add, this is the answer I get When I try to Download Adobe Flash Player
You get the message because that is exactly the situation. Apple has not allowed any Flash on iOS devices.
What site are you trying to see? Many sites now provide Flash alternatives. For example, if you want to listen to Pandora, instead of using the Flash on the Pandora website, instead you download the Pandora app for the iPad.
In the future, even if Apple wants to add Flash to the iPad, it won't be able to because Adobe will no longer be making it at all, for any mobile device:
http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2011/11/adobe-kills-mobile-flash/
If you often go to sites that use a lot of Flash and they don't have an alternative, you should write to them and tell them to stop using Flash. -

What internet security do you recommend for apple products
What Internet security do you recommend for apple products
None. The best security is to backup your data frequently, and using WPA2 encryption on wireless routers. Otherwise basic good practices include:
1. Do not download sites that suggest installing cleanup software.
2. Do not do things that might slow your Mac down:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6921
3. Do not install updates except directly from reputable vendors websites, and the Apple Mac Store.
4. Do not follow instructions of popup windows or banner ads.
5. Do not use peer2peer or torrent software.
6. Do not open .scpt, .sct, .app attachments.
7. If you use Windows on your Mac, the same security rules for Windows on a non-Apple machine apply as an Apple machine. -
What virus protection do you recommend?
What virus protection do you recommend for MacBook Pro?
I simply recommend practicing safe browsing habits, such as not opening files or attachments from unverified sources and never provide your user name and password unless you're certain of what you're doing.
Point in case: There is a malicious application currently floating around which goes by various different names, such as Mac Defender and Mac Security. When this piece of malware is downloaded and run on your computer, it will ask you to install it and you will be asked to provide your user name and password for it to gain access to your computer. By not providing this information, the malware is unable to cause any harm your computer.
