Might want to update your "profile sig" on your post (10.6.3 is no longer supported etc and unlikely you still use which came out end of 2009/early 2010)

  • My in-built camera has stopped working?

    Can anyone shed any light? 2 weeks ago it was working fine with Skype. I have since uninstalled and then reinstalled skype. I have also tried to see if the computer detects the camera using iChat - and it still is not detecting it. I live on the other side of the world from my family, so Video Skyping is ultra important - please help!

  • How do I get the built in microphone to work on my IMac?  Camera works fine, but I can't record voice.

    How do I get the built-in microphone to work on my IMac?  Camera works fine, but I can't record sound.

    I always assummed that the mic was part of iSight (intertwined?).  The mic is situated right next to iSight.  It would seem to me the solutions would be the same some what.
    Regarding the OP, I also suspect his/her problem is hardware.  It's rather unusual for the internal mic to not work yet the iSight does.

    Yuu can try to reactivate your iSight camera by opening up iMessage.. navigate to Preferences/Audio Video,and then click on Camera. IT shoudl be grayed-out if you only have one camera hooked up to your machine. If you have an external camera, then disconnect it from your machine.

  • Satellite M645-S4050: built in camera does not work correctly

    My built in camera does not work correctly.
    It does not have any kind of effect on and it captures pictures and videos as if some kind of thermal camera was on.
    Also some videos I load up on youtube look like this.
    I have been researching for an answer but can't find it, please help me.

    All you can do is to test it with latest webcam driver.
    Remove preinstalled camera software and install latest version offered on Toshiba download page.
    If the same happen again visit nearest Toshiba service and show them how it looks like. Maybe the cam must be exchanged.
    In the past I have used several Toshiba laptops with built in cam but I have never saw something lke this.

  • HT1338 built in camera has stopped working, how can I update or reinstall the drivers

    Built in camera has stopped working, how can I reinstall the respective drivers?

    Here are my best suggestions for your camera problem, Stephen:
    •  If you have not already done so, shut down Mac, restart,
        and try again.  If the camera still does not work, continue.
    • Try ALL relevant suggestions from Apple's Troubleshooting
       article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
    (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.)
       If you need to use the "reset" suggestion, use the correct reset for your Mac.
    • Use your Mac's Disk Utility to repair permissions and then
       download and apply the latest Combo Update.  For your Mac OS,
       the current version is at http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1640
    • 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.
    • If nothing else resolves your problem, yours is likely a hardware issue.
       Unless you have a current backup, make one now.
    Then use the final "Troubleshooting" suggestion:
    "... contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service."

  • After installing OSX Lion, the built-in camera no longer works.  Solution?

    After installing OS X Lion on a late 2010 MacBookPro, the built-in camera no longer works.  Worked beautifully with Snow Leopard.  Reset SMU to no avail.  Any solutions?

    Hi, Thanks for the reply, I really appreciate your help with this.
    Yes to both questions: iMovie is in the Applications folder, not in any subfolders. And I have reinstalled iMove from the original disc (before and after the OS reinstall) but can only get up to 7.1.4 without buying a later edition of iLife.
    The camera definitely worked under Snow Leopard but not since I upgraded from SL to Mountain Lion.
    Found the following on this forum:
    If you have iLife '09 or older, there have been no iPhoto 8, iMovie 8 or
    Garageband 5 (or older) updates relating to Lion or Mountain Lion. The
    support and compatibility situations for those versions is unknown as
    Apple hasn't said anything. We can only determine compatibility
    anecdotally. If it turns out that there is a problem and Apple doesn't
    release an update, your only recourse is to buy the latest version of
    the application.
    I reinstalled some other iLife apps as well. iDVD went missing after the ML reinstall. When I reinstalled it from the original disc, it wouldn't open and I had to download a manual update to get it working. iWeb previously stopped working after the upgrade to ML (all the menu options were greyed out) but when I reistalled it (together with iMove and iDVD) yesterday, it started working again.
    All this seems to point to a compatibilty issue between iLife '08 and ML.
