How do I use my USB webcam with Yosemite?

Since upgrading to OS 10.10, my Mac Pro no longer recognizes my Gear Head USB webcam. Any suggestions?

If restarting Mac does not fix, use relevant suggestions from How to Troubleshoot iSight.
There are also some other suggestions in this discussion topic that have helped some users.

  • How do I use my gigaware webcam with my mac?

    How do I use my gigaware webcam with my mac? I just bought this webcam on amazon http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IJE0ISS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00?ie=UTF 8&psc=1 and I want to use it with my mac. Is there an adapter or any software to make it compatible? Thanks.

    Your amazon link states, in part, that this webcam is:
    Compatible with Microsoft Windows 7,Vista, XP, 2000
    Use a Mac OS X Compatible Webcam like one of those shown in the linked article instead.
    For best compatibility and security, also update your OS X Mavericks (10.9.2) to the current OS X version by restarting Mac and then downloading and installing OS X Mavericks 10.9.4 Update (Combo).

  • How can I use a USB camera with cRIO 9022. Please see my strange problem.

    Hi,
            I would like to use a USB camera with NI cRIO 9022. I used the same USB camera with NI USB 6216 DAQ device and developed a VI(within a PROJECT and outside it). So, It is working fine with NI USB 6216 device when I use the Vision Assistant Express VI and gets detected in its Initialization Window.  Please see JPEG File 3 where I get NO ERROR.
            I am facing a problem when I want to use it with NI cRIO 9022. What exactly I am doing in this case is:
    1) Create a NEW PROJECT
    2) Add Targets and Devices(NI cRIO 9022)
    3) Use the Scan Interface mode
    4) Create a NEW VI under the cRIO 9022 device 
    5) Use a Timed Loop(Synchronized with Scan Engine) for continuous Data Acquisition and Sending from the Analog I/O modules.
    6) Use the Vision Assistant available through the NI Vision Acquisition 2010 Module(I get STUCK HERE! The Express VI opens the Initialization Window, but I don't see the USB camera like in JPEG File 3)
    I am facing difficulties with this HOST COMPUTER, cRIO implementation differences. On my host computer I have the software packages as shown in JPEG File 1, and on my cRIO 9022 as shown in JPEG File 2.
    Can someone guide me how to overcome this and get the USB camera detected when I am using NI cRIO 9022?
    NOTE: If this is a problem with software mismatches on HOST and NI cRIO 9022 device, please see JPEG Files 1 and 2 for available software and Host and cRIO 9022.
    Thanks.
    Amar.

  • How can I use a USB keyboard with my Macbook Pro?

    My MBP will not recognize my brand new USB keyboard.
    I have tried the keyboard on two other Macbook Air's and it works perfectly.
    My MBP:
    OS X Yosemite
    10.10.1
    Macbook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013)
    2.4 GHz Core i5
    8GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    Mac HD
    Graphics Intel Iris 1536 MB
    Thoughts on how I can resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Greg

    Brenden,
    Thanks for the reply.
    I've gone your suggestions in detail and the keyboard is still not working.
    From what I can tell this is a known issue with Yosemite.

    Someone at Apple must be able to figure this one out.

  • How do I use a USB microphone with logic?

    Logic recognizes the samson meteor microphone, but how do I get sound from it when using it for a track? Do I select an audio, software instr, or midi track? I also use an audiobox midi for my keyboard. For that, I select software instrument and then I have sound. I tried creating an aggregate device but still no sound. Thanks so much for any help possible..

    The headphones port outputs audio signal from Logic. Plug the mixer into the lin-in port.

  • How do I use a usb web cam with MacBook Pro

    How do I use a web camera with a MacBook Pro?  I want to run it through my laptop so I can project it on a screen for teaching a class.

    Can I record directly into iMovie with a usb web cam instead of iSight?
    You can try it, but probably not. 
    This Apple article http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2134 explains that a Firewire-connected, tape-based camera or camcorder mode will work.
    If you don't have access to one that works, a simple workaround is to record your video with QuickTimeX Player (the v.10.x one from Lion).  You can import that recorded video into iMovie for editing.
    If your Mac OS is earlier than Lion whose QuickTime does not offer movie recording as installed, use QuickTime7 Pro for recording.

  • Using a USB Webcam on Tiger 10.4.11

    I have an iMac G4/800 running Tiger 10.4.11. I know that a Firewire iSight webcam is necessary to function in Tiger but I am musing as to whether there is some sort of "fix" that will allow me to use my Intel Pro PC USB webcam (a pc webcam of equal quality) in lieu of the iSight webcam. Even the used prices for the iSight webcams is "nuts". Thanks, Ken.

    Apple’s 10.4.9 update introduced a really cool feature. It allows you to use a USB webcam for iChat. Be warned though, not all USB webcams will work. We’ve started ordering the ones that do, so here’s a list of the USB webcams we’ll carry and will work with the new update.

  • How do I use Edge Web Fonts with Muse?

    How do I use Edge Web Fonts with Muse - is it an update to load, a stand alone, how does it interface with Muse? I've updated to CC but have no info on this.

    Hello,
    Is there a reason why you want to use Edge Web Fonts with Adobe Muse?
    Assuming you wish to improve typography of your web pages, you should know that Muse is fully integrated with Typekit. This allows you to access and apply over 500 web fonts from within Muse. Here's how you do it:
    Select a text component within Muse, and click the Text drop-down.
    Select Add Web Fonts option, to pop-open the Add Web Fonts dialog.
    Browse and apply fonts per your design needs.
    Muse also allows you to create paragraph styles that you can save and apply to chunks of text, a la InDesign. Watch this video for more information: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/muse-feature-tour/using-typekit-with-adobe-muse/
    Also take a look at these help files to see if they help you:
