Ichat av & third party camera

My kids are away at college and I wanted to "see" them regularly on ichat. My older imac, not intel core duo, but more than adequate with its 20inch screen and Combo drive does not have a built in camera. I tried several web cams and have found that the +*Logitech QuickCam Ultra Vision*+ works beautifully. My kids say that the image is better than the isight, we are also using on one of the imacs. I bought it at costco, but it is available at all the big retailers. No driver required. Just plug it in and wave back at yourself under video connection or video preview.
I have read that other Logitech QuickCam's that will work with VISTA will also work, as they are UVC compliant. Believe me. . . even apple gurus don't know about this one. Apple should carry the this webcam in it stores and online stores to help support those of us who don't buy a new computer every year.

The Fusion USB-webcam is for sale here in the Netherlands.
For Vista you have to download additional software.
It is compatible with iChat.

Third party camera connector

Does anyone know of a third party camera connector for the iPad? I am traveling before apple releases theirs.
Thank you

Apple will be releasing a camera kit around the end of the month. You can find it on the iPad accessories page.

Uninstalling a third party camera?

I have drivers for a third party camera installed, (specifically vupointsolutions) and I read that those drivers that were installe may be interfering with my iSight, and that is why it is no longer working. I dont want to do a whole restore, so if anyone could tell me where these drivers were installed and how I could go about uninstalling them? I would greatly appreciate the assistance. Thanks in advance!

You could try a spotlight search using 'vupointsolutions' ...make sure you allow spotlight to search your complete drive.
Also, sometimes driver installers will tell you where they will put stuff (sometimes even have an uninstaller), so you might want to find/launch the installer again to see if it gives you any clues as to where things are going.

Sx20 Video Inputs and third-party cameras.

Hi, All!
At CTS-SX20-PHD4X-K9 has two video inputs.
Can I use them to connect external video cameras? If so, what cameras are supported?

Hi,
I don't think it is supported. if you want to make sure you need to bring a camera with the same applicable video format.
kindly find the below data sheet for SX20

Third Party Nikon Camera Contol Software and Lightroom 4?

Hello Everyone
I am currently shooting tethered, from a camera stand, with a Nikon D90. My images go into a a specific directory. I then import them into Photoshop Elements 10 Organizer. I would like to do everything in one step.
Lightroom 4 lacks the camera control features that are essential for my current task. I have to have Live View and I need to see the image immediately after it is shot. It is also important to be able to change the camera settings from my computer, primarily F Stop. Is there a way to link Lightroom 4 with a third party camera control program such as Nikon Camera Control Pro 2 or something similar. There are several programs that give me adequate camera control.
Thank you for your help and suggestions.

WVC54G setup for third party applications and also firmware query.

I have resurrected someone's old WVC54G and installed it to work initially wirelessly to my netwark and then my Windows 7 64-bit laptop. I did an initial reset, then set up the ip address etc. to the system here, and everything seems to work even though the viewer and recorder software installer gave a Windows error message.
I'd like to be able to look at the camera via the VLC viewer application, and I see from another posting here that this should work. Is there a guide anywhere showing how to do this? Ideally I'd like to understand how to interface the camera so that I can test various third party camera applications.
Also, the Linksys setup software says the firmware version is V5.10, Feb 21, 2005, which seems a much higher number than it should be. Is this right?

Try downloading the viewer and recorder utility from the linksys website under the download section which is pretty user friendly.
To view it in VLC player, you can use the option 'open url' in file menu and type in http://your camera's IP
The latest FW for wvc54g is ver. 2.11. The version you have mentioned might be software version.

Operate a third party device

HI
I try to operate a third party Camera (C CAM) by LabVIEW. I try by call library function node. But I fail to get data by call library function node.
Is there have any other way to operate third party device except call library function / CIN?
Thanks
Kamal

Kamal;
Other ways to access a third party device is via ActiveX, sending commands via the system exec VI, etc. However, my guess is that you need to try harder with the .dll
Make sure you check the following articles: An Overview of Accessing DLLs or Shared Libraries from LabVIEW and External Code for LabVIEW - CIN / DLL - Starting Point
The article "Can LabVIEW C? - Example 3: Using the Right Tools with LabVIEW" is an excellent starting point.
I don't know about that camera, but if it is a webcam, you can do a search on toolkits to access a webcam from LabVIEW.

I purchased my iMac using the same (and only) Apple ID I use to purchase apps. Third-party apps update fine, but the apps that came with my iMac (iPhoto, iMovie, etc) bring up a message saying I have to log in with the account I used to purchase them.

I used my only Apple ID to purchase my iMac (Intel-based one). I've never been able to update core apps that came with it. I can update third party apps I've bought (like Coda), but when I try to update Garage Band, iPhoto, iMovie and so on, a popup message appears saying "You have updates available for other accounts" and "Log in with the account you used to purchase this app in order to update it", or similar (see screenshot above).
The OS seems to get its updates fine - it's just the core apps from the App Store.
I've only ever had one Apple ID, so I have no idea what to do. I went to ask the Genius bar at my local Apple store, and they couldn't help, and insisted that I must have purchased the iMac using a different account, but I definitely didn't. There are a few posts on non-Apple forums of this happening to other people, so it must be a rare bug.
I'm a little concerned it may affect my ability to update from Lion to Mountian Lion. Can anyone help?
Dan

Have you done a Disk Repair and a Disk Permissions Repair?
If that doesn't resolve the problem I would suggest calling customer support about this issue as it is most likely on their (Apple's) end that the problem exists.

Really Apple? OSX 10.8.5 disables built-in camera functionality with third party apps such as Skype and Gmail video chat. I do not have time machine on my 2013 MB Air. How can I get back to 10.8.4?

Really Apple?
With the release OSX 10.8.5 Apple has once again showed its true colors, and continued its efforts to create a closed Apple system, which eliminates third party vendors, unless, one can only assume... they pay.
Included in this OSX update is the disabling of the built-in camera to work with third party applications such as Skype and Gmail video chat. No surprise the camera works just fine with Apple apps such as Facetime and Photobooth.
The answer I got on my call to AppleCare to ask for assistance in reinstalling 10.8.4, so that I may Skype again, was we can not do that. You can not go back unless you have a time machine bkup.
Can anyone help me get back to to 10.8.4 on my 2013 MB Air?
I do not have a time machine bkup as this computer is not used to store important documents.
Thank you.

Read this post: 10.8.5 Broke Camera Usage For 3rd Party Apps Like Skype
Another: isight not recognized in Skype after 10.8.5 upgrade
Don't panic. Skype simply needs to update its app.

Third Party 2 in 1 Camera Connection Kit and iOS 4.2

Has anyone tried the third party 2 in 1 Camera Connection Kit with iOS 4.2? This is the connector that has both the SD slot as well as the USB slot in one unit, rather than the two separate units on the Apple branded one. The third party one is cheaper and 1 less thing to carry around or potentially lose.
Thanks!
Matt

I want to change the settings (brightness, contrast, gamma) for my internal cam on Macbook pro. I find having to but a third party software (iglasses, webcam settings) to control basic settings as unnecessary and exploitative. Does anyone have a solution?

I want to change the settings (brightness, contrast, gamma) for my internal cam on Macbook pro. I find having to but a third party software (iglasses, webcam settings) to control basic settings as unnecessary and exploitative. Does anyone have a solution?

It is not about payment of $19.95 (Igalsses) or $7.99(webcam settings). This is a very basic setting that should be available in the system settings. The automatic setting of the internal cam does not work great on low lighting as everyone is aware.
i am just amazed how users take in lying down and suggest solutions such as paying for a 3rd party paid app or improving the lighting in your room.

Third party software for imovie to enable Sony HD cameras to import footage

Pretty much I bought a camera that won't work with my Mac unless I jump through hurdles to make it do so. (which is nice because I spent a crap ton of money on the camera) Apple support told me I had to find third party software and that they have no clue when an update for imovie would come out which allowed avchd to read on a mac. Please god let some one solve my problem for me. I'm not too technically savoy so if the answer is complex, dumb it down a little. I really don't want to have to return the camera. it's a sony Sr-1 pretty sweet little guy and the jerks at best buy said it would be compatible with mac.

The answer is the same as in your original post:
iMovie: Cannot See or Control Camera
