Facetime & Photobooth Not Working

The camera on my Macbook Air is not working. I just got it a couple of days ago. I try to go on Facetime and the camera doesn't come on. I then tried Photo Booth and it still wouldn't work. Is there anyway I can fix this?

Sounds like a hardware problem that needs to be looked at and serviced by qualified personel.

  • Facetime Camera not working - Installed 10.8.5 Supplemental Update

    So I cheerfully installed the supplemental update for Mountain Lion 10.8.5 tonight and it did not fix my camera issue with Skype. In fact, my Facetime camera, which was working fine with Facetime & Photobooth, stopped working with any software after this update. Before this update came, I did change the plug in back to the pre-10.8.5 update camera plug in, which made it work fine again. I thought installing this update would fix it but it didn't. I ended up changing the plug back to the pre-10.8.5 plug in again and now everything works fine. Any suggestions as to why this is the case?
    And I'm using a mid-2013 Macbook Air. 4g Ram/256bg Hard Drive

    Unfortunately this is not working for my MacBookAir6,2.
    10.8.5 broke the camera for everything but FaceTime.
    I installed 10.8.5 supplemental; that broke the camera completely.
    Installed 10.8.5 combo, and FaceTime works again, but Skype and Gmail are still broken.
    I tried copying the AppleCamera.plugin as noted on the Skype site, but that doesn't fix Skype or Gmail.
    Ideas?

  • FaceTime does not work on UAE model

    My ipad was bought from Dubai, UAE and FaceTime does not work on it. On investigation I came to know that FaceTime is blocked in UAE. Fine I thought FaceTime is a software thing not hardware and after updating iOS why does it still not work ? Can we do anything to make face time work ? It's not banned in my country and FaceTime works perfect on my iPhone
    Help please

    Thanks I now use Skype but learnt a valuable lesson will buy my next ipad from USA or Canada where nothing is blocked.
    However my money got wasted cause I wanted the luxury of a big screen for FaceTime communication
    Thanks dude for your help

    I am using chat-r wireless and facetime is not working but when i put rogers fido or any other carrier sim in it work. Anyone know what the problem?

    I'm guessing it's a compatibility problem similar to that that T-Mobile in the US has. I'm not familiar with chat-r wireless, but I'm guessing it's not a supported carrier for the iPhone. If they can't tell you how to fix it, I'm guessing it's just plain not going to work.

  • My iMessage and facetime is not working after updating to ios 7... My ipad works perfectly and it's the same apple id.  Any answers or reasons why on the iPhone 5 is not working???

    My iMessage and facetime is not working after updating to ios 7...
    Any answers on how to fix it?  I've tried to restart, restore connected to itunes, but nothing.

    ACTIVATING FACETIME AND IMESSAGES
    Activating Facetime and Imessages on your phone requires the ability to send SMS messages and depending upon where you are that might be an international SMS.  Check with your carrier to see if your plan supports sending of international SMS messages.  If you are having trouble activating Facetime or Imessages turn them both off on your device and reset the device (Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost)).  Wait for the device to restart and wait a minute and turn Facetime and imessage back on and wait for activation.  If that does not fix things read the following articles:

  • FaceTime is not working since the last time I've disconnected it...

    Since the last time I've disconnected it, Facetime is not working. At first, I thought it was working with no problems. Then, I realize that I could not make or receive calls, and then I disconnected. Now, I can't connect it. There's a message saying to me try later, but this message has been appearing since last month. I'm sure that this problem is not with my internet conection, because I've tried another conections, and FaceTime still not working, and it is not with my ID Apple either because I could connect it normally in iPod' Facetime and I've tried other account in Mac' FaceTime. What should I do?
    Thank you.

    SAME as I stated 3 weeks ago I've update to 6.1 IOS onto Iphone 4s it wiped out Wifi & Bluetooth grey out issue
    and did all the steps didn't help ,so had to go to Apple store & see if they could do anything ,they stated that if it work for them get a new 1 free ,but if can't be done PAY for REPLACEMENT .It turns out warranty lapsed,said ok 
    which I paid .Now this update to 6.1.1 shows up on my update hate to proceed the update . Which will be ROUND 2 all over again .

  • After Mountain Lion download, FaceTime is not working anymore. Any ideas?

    After Mountain Lion download, FaceTime is not working anymore. Any ideas?

    I have reinstalled mountain Lion again . This time, Facetime works when somebody calls me, and I can do calls from my Mac again. But the problem was still that I was not able to call my iPad, what I was able to do with Lion (I had one Apple-ID and two call adresses). The solution was this time to generate a second Apple-ID from the Facetime in my Mac (this doesn't affect your main Apple-ID, it's only used for Facetime). Now, it works!  ;-)

    I had an iphone 4s and it worked nice with facetime and imessage using my phone number but  it was stolen on December so I buy a new iphone 4s using the same cellphone number  but now imessage and facetime does not work with my number, it only works with my apple ID.   Please Help me I speak Spanish so  if my English is not ok  I´m sorry about it.
    Do you think that apple has to   reset in their database of the old serial number attached with my phone number and that’s why I can´t activate imessage and facetime with my number in the new iphone 4s?? 

    I understand all of this Meg; that is why I bought an Iphone; but never expected my phone not even give a at least a 24 or even 12 hours....I work 12 hour shifts and also would expect to have to charge each night but not twice a day or more.  I am not always somewhere I can charge my phone.
    Your points are true; however it doesn't help me......

  • Facetime is not working

    Why FaceTime is not working? it accepts my apple ID but is says that the server encountered an error processing registration.

    First, check the status of iMessage on this page:
    Apple - Support - System Status
    If iMessage is down, wait tor it to come back up. There may be a localized outage, even if the status indicator is green.
    Otherwise, back up all data.
    Take the steps suggested in this support article:
    FaceTime, Game Center, Messages: "There was an error processing registration" when signing in
    There are five steps in that article. Please take all of them. If you don't understand some of the steps or can't carry them out, ask for guidance.
    After completing those steps, if you still get the error, try resetting the NVRAM.

  • Why Facetime is not working in United Arab Emirates?

    Why Facetime is not working in United Arab Emirates?? Even the icon for it and its setting in the phone’s setting list are not exist.. Could it be that this service is locked by our local mobile carrier or from Apple side?

    The UAE IOS devices are identified by their Serial number which has the Suffix AE. the telecoms regulator in UAE has agreed with Apple not to put facetime on UAE devices so people dont cut out the UAE telcoms providers that have not recovered their infratructure invetsments on copper and fibreoptic cabling/exchanges etc.
    You cannot change this as Apple always refrences your serial number of your device everytime it connects to itunes or the app store.  You will need a non UAE IOS device to have facetime.  how about getting Skype instaed its more widely used and in my opinion better
