How do I activate my Isight camera to take an image of my gift card?

How do I activate my Isight Camera to take an image of my Gift card so I can redeem it?
The camera sees the card OK, but I don't know how to make it take an image.
Please help.
Greg.

I don't think that you can do it with older MacBook's which have iSight cameras on them, the redeem by camera lists requirements as :
Mac with a FaceTime camera (an Apple Display with FaceTime works too)
I think that you will need to manually enter the card's code

  • How do I use my isight camera live?

    I have a 27 inch Imac. How do I use my Isight camera as a web cam? I have flashplayer 10, but it still won't work. Help?

    Software always operates webcams, so you need to find software applications that does what you want.
    Use your Mac's  > App Store... menu command to search for "webcam"
    (without quotation marks).
    You can also search for other terms like "video chat",  "video conferencing",  "video surveillance", etc.
    If you need other functions, some of the older apps in the list in this link are also still available:

    BTW, Flash 10 is out of date for OS X 10.7.2.
      • You can find the latest Flash version that works with you system using this page:
          http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    If you update, use your Mac's Disk Utility to repair permissions.  Then follow Adobe's instructions here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/908/cpsid_90893.html
    Be sure to uninstall your current Flash player before installing the new one.
    Repair permissions again immediately following installation of the updated Flash player.
      • Be aware that the current Flash Player Preferences can  be configured in your Lion Mac's  > System Preferences...    These settings may be blocking Flash on a system-wide basis.
      •  Individual Flash settings are still configured in the same way as older versions:

    Hi
    MSN for mac any version does not do video.
    aMSN and Mercury do video but no audio.
    if you are trying to video with a PC you will be better off using Skype

  • How do I attach my iSight camera to my Apple Cinema Display?

    I've just bought two iSight cameras, and found nothing in the accessory kit with them that would allow me to attach the camera to my Apple Cinema Display. This is because the back of the Cinema Display is beveled rather than flat, so the flat base of the accessories won't set firmly.
    Does anybody have a solution for this?

  • How do I override existing billing information in order to utilize an iTunes gift card?

    We have an existing Apple account tied to our debit card, however my daughter would like to use iTunes gift cards for purchases for her iPad.  How do we override the existing account info so she can use her card?  I have already redeemed the card and it shows a balance, I just don't know how to apply her purchases to the balance.

    Just buy as normal. Except for gifts from others which cannot be purchased with a credit balance, the cost of a purchase will be automatically deducted from any balance.
    Regards.

  • HT5035 How do I find out if my 'jurisdiction allows for refund of redeemed gift card'?

    I was on CHAT with Michael and found that the $225 worth of App Store cards I entered into Itunes cannot be used for Iphone purchase.
    The only way I had found to valid the App Store cards were valid was by entering them into Itunes which immediately redemed them and credited them to my account.
    IF I had known that they werer not available for use in purchasing an Iphone I would have never redeemed them. There is no way I'd ever use $225 worth of Apps.
    "Chat - Michael" gave me a link to Support and said I would fill out the form and someone would be assigned to help. I'd like the money put back on the cards or refunded, per the 'How to manage unused iTunes Gift Cards' info I found. Says if my jurisdiction allows but does not indicate which Jurisdiction.
    SO, let me know what happens next.

    Try a SIM from a different carrier.
    Frankly, if you bought the device in the US it is very likely locked to AT&T.  The only way to get an unlocked iPhone in the US is to buy directly from Apple and specify unlocked which would be at full retail price.

  • TS1292 How come it doesn't show the amount of money there is s gift card?  I tried putting in the code more than once, but all it says is that the card has already benn redeemed?

    How come it doesn't show how much money there is left in my iTunes gift card?  I have tried putting in the code more than once, but all my tablet says is that the card has already been redeemed.

    I haven't got access to the server right now (so I can't provide the complete details), but something like 6-700 GB (which is more than it shows in the client time machine windows, but less than what is true (which was around 1,5 TB))

  • How do we activate the FaceTime Camera for Skype on a Macbook Air with Mavericks

    We have bought a new Macbook Air and when using Skype the camera is inoperative. Audio is fine. How to activate the camera?

    Thanks, Gail.
    I have the problem of posts not displaying also from time to time.  I've had the issue a bit today.  It seems to me that the issue only occurs with the Apple Support Communities - to the best of my knowledge, I can go to other websites that update regularly (e.g., CNN) and catch their late updates.
    Anyway, I believe you have lots of company with posts not displaying promptly out here.

  • How  can I see my isight cameras remotely WITHOUT using an iphone or ipod?

    I simply want to be able to see any of the isight webcams that are on my various computers in my home from another computer when I am not home to keep an eye on things.
    I have tried off and on for years to get Quicktime Broadcaster to work, but i'm not sure if that's even the right way to go.
    I am an advanced user. I know what my home's IP address is and I know how to forward ports in my router. But even when I've used Quicktime Broadcaster on any of my computers running 10.5 or 10.6, I can't figure out what the address would be if I wanted to view my webcams remotely from another computer that's outside of my home.....for free.
    There's GOT to be an easy way to do this. Even if it's complicated I should be able to do it with my internet and application knowledge. Please HELP!!

    installing darwin streaming server ... So frustrating!
    I don't see any question here. Perhaps training from your Apple retailer or a local computer training specialist would ease your frustration. Local computer clubs or user groups might be able to recommend someone to you. If not, you will need to do the research and study on your own if you continue to pursue the QuickTime approach.
    By nature of its considerable capabilities and breadth of functions, Apple's full-powered, professional QT software is more complicated than the other software solutions I suggested. Those other applications do not offer the same power and capability as Apple's professional QT apps, but neither do they require you invest so much time for research, study, and test runs.
    If you are determined to learn and use the QT approach, start your study with the FAQs, tutorials, and other info on the applications are available from these links:
      http://www.apple.com/quicktime/broadcaster/
      http://www.apple.com/quicktime/streamingserver/
      http://developer.apple.com/opensource/server/streaming/index.html
    Additional (and more advanced) info is available from the Apple Developer Connection pages:
      http://tinyurl.com/2cyvwsm for Broadcaster
      http://tinyurl.com/27tl8k9   for Streaming Server
      http://dss.macosforge.org/ (for Darwin Streaming Server)
    Implementing streaming video using these QT products may be easier if you use the versions integrated into Mac OS X Server. See http://www.apple.com/server/macosx/ for information that may help you decide whether to buy OS X Server.
    If you have no plans for streaming video beyond that you have described, you might want to reconsider using the professional QT apps. You will likely find the surveillance or webcam apps far simpler to configure and use.

  • How can I put my money from my iTunes account into an iTunes gift card

    I purchase an $20 iTunes card and put the money in my ITunes account and brought what I needed now I would like to put the rest of the money back into the card so I can give it to my friend. My question is how can I transfer the money from my account into the iTunes gift card

    You can't. Once any part of the balance has been spent, the remainder can't be put back onto the card or otherwise transferred to another person(aside from Apple itself) through any means.

  • How to I take some of my iTunes gift card that I already put into one account to another?

    I have two apple accounts and I want to get some of my iTunes card into the other one. Help anyone?!

    You can't. Except by asking the iTunes Store staff to put the entire balance back onto the card, which they will only do if none of it has been spent, it can't be transferred to another Apple ID through any means.
