Isight cam for MSN and AIM users (on Windows)

I'm having trouble set my isight for Windows users. My friend was using Trillion. Will that work or should she be using AIM proper.
I also downloaded MSN messenger for Mac, and I'd like to use the isight cam to talk to people on that. How do I go about setting that up? I hear it's kinda hairy.

Hi Christow!
You mention that you are having problems connecting to your windows friends. I assume you are able to connect with mac users with no problem. Here's is a nice overview to have your windows friends review so you can connect with them: http://www.mvldesign.com/videoconferencetutorial.html
As far as MSN for the mac, it doesn't support video at this time, you may want to consider using aMSN which can be found at: http://amsn.sourceforge.net/

    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 we reset password for SAP* and DDIC user in SAP R/3 ECC 6.0?

    Hi,
    How do we reset password for SAP* and DDIC user in SAP R/3 ECC 6.0?
    I tried with acual method as below from client '000':
    DELETE FROM USR02 CLIENT SPECIIED WHERE BNAME = 'SAP*' AND MANDT = '001'.
    After this when I tried to logon '001' using SAP* with password PASS it is giving  the message that Incorrect logon and password.
    (Also when I checked for 'SAP*' in 001 it looks like it is not got created as I queried as below:
    SELECT SINGLE * FROM USR02 CLIENT SPECIFIED WHERE BNAME = 'SAP*' AND MANDT = '001'.)
    Can anybody throw some light on this? RewardS is guranteed for solutions!
    -B S B

    Hi again:
    I forget to tell.
    You must restart the system. So, that a new user with the name "sap*" gets generated with password "pass"
    Hope this wil help,

  • I use my camera for video and photos.  When I download my videos to my ipad1 using the camera connection kit, they will not play on my ipad. Is there a way I can get them to play?

    I use my camera for video and photos.  When I download my videos to my ipad1 using the camera connection kit, they will not play.
    Does anyone know how I can make this work?

    Yvonne-
    I haven't tried videos on my camera yet.  Do you use the Videos App to play them?  I don't think they will play in the Photos App.
    If yours are in a format that is not in Vazandrew's list, you may need to sync them to your computer and convert them to M4V or MP4 format.  You can use a program like HandBrake to do the conversion.  <HandBrake>  Once converted, you can sync them back to the iPad and they should play.
    This may not meet your needs, but the alternative appears to be getting a different camera.  I don't know of another Video App that might work.

  • I accidentally deleted my iMovie off my mac, anyone know how to get it back because it came for free and is now 15 dollars to buy back??? pls help

    i accidentally deleted my iMovie off my mac, anyone know how to get it back because it came for free and is now 15 dollars to buy back??? pls help

    If you mean you accidentally removed the icon for iMovie from the Dock (the array of icons at the bottom of the window), you can add it back easily.
    Open the Applications folder (if you open it from the Dock you may then need to click the Open in Finder icon), locate the iMovie program.
    Drag the icon for iMovie down to the Dock, somewhere between the icon for Finder and the dashed line toward the right.
    Wait for the icons at that spot to move aside, then drop it in.

  • 35MM Camera for Black and White Photography.

    What are good 35MM Cameras for black and white photography?

    Pretty much any Canon, Nikon or Pentax old school film SLR should give what you want. I still have my old Canon AE-1 from 1982 and its still fully functional. Problem locally getting my hands on film now and developing is getting $$$ here.

    My desktop IMac OSX 10.6.8 : IMovie '11: Trying to upload a home movie clip from my Panosonic camera model PV-DV203D. I've had this camera several years, and used it with Windows desktop. Now trying to work with my Mac. I have a USB cable, both ends fit, but iMovie '11 does not recognize it. Is there a driver fix for this?

    What kind of Mac to you have?  This camera is a tape based DV one that connects best with firewire and I cannot tell if your Mac has firewire.  If your mac *does* have firewire, get a camcorder firewire cable and try again.
    ETA:  Oops, I am pretty sure that all the "desktop iMacs" have firewire, so you should be good to go.  You will probably need a cord that goes from FW800 to your camcorder.

  • ISight camera with msn??

    Hello Nicole
    You can use the suggestions in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090 to see whether iSight is causing your problem. Be sure to try with more than one user account and with some other apps, too:
      http://www.ralphjohns.co.uk/EZJim/EZJimpage7.html
    If your iSight works properly with any app in any user account you test, iSight is NOT the cause.
    If you can eliminate iSight as the source of your trouble, you will need to either switch to other ways of communicating as Defcom suggests or troubleshoot other system elements that might be causing the problem. Here are some other things you can consider if you don't get better suggestions here:
    (1) Sometimes a restart restores function on internet connected applications. Shut down everything and restart your entire system including modem, router, and Mac in that order. To eliminate possible communication hardware problems, allow self-test to complete on each device before starting the next.
    (2) If you updated or installed any software immediately before the problem began, check their websites to see if there are known issues with your system configuration or installation. If not, carefully following the developers' instructions, reinstall any possible software cause, repair permissions, and try again.
    If you find conflicting software, follow the instructions and uninstall to see if removing it will restore proper function to your favored communications apps.
    (3) Check the dedicated aMSN user forum at http://www.amsn-project.net/forums/ to see if your problem has already been solved by other users who post there.
    (4) aMSN is not your only choice of OS X applications. You can use either   aMSN   or   Mercury
    Either can do webcam video with MSMessenger clients using OS X and your built-in iSight.
    aMSN and Mercury work a bit differently, so if you cannot get aMSN working, try Mercury. You can use whichever is easiest or most reliable on your MBA. 
    (5) As an alternative, because your iNtel Mac can use Boot Camp, VMware Fusion™, Parallels™, or VirtualBox to run Windows® software, you can choose which method you want to use, add the required software to your iNtel Mac (if you have not already done so), and then install and use the same Windows® Messenger application that your contacts use.
    If you need more help with Boot Camp than you get here, search or post in Boot Camp discussions category.

  • ISight Camera not working and green light won't cut off

    Ok, so I used to use macs all the time (exclusively) then I left for a few years, and now that I am back I have had a great experience so far except for this oddity...
    I have no idea why but all of the sudden my little green light beside my built-in isight camera won't go away, I am not even trying to use it in any application. When I do, however, try to use it in photobooth for example it yields nothing but blackness. So, to troubleshoot I figured I'd try two things:
    Re-installing Mac OS X from scratch using the CDs that came with it (no big loss, I wanted to customize the installation anyways)
    Reset the SMC (I am used to resetting PRAM and stuff like that, so it's been a while for me)
    Both of those have yielded no change.
    I would have searched the forums for answers but apparently that feature has been turned off temporarily to help "improve support", or something I read rather quickly earlier lol
    So I call upon you, Mac Geniuses, to please come to my aid...surely there is something else I can do to fix the isight on my macbook. I just got it, granted I got it refurbished from Apple, I expected nothing less than top notch from Apple as they have always delivered before.
    Thanks in advance for any help!!
    -Joshua

    Ok, my mistake...When I went to reset the SMC I noticed when I upgraded the memory the retention bar that holds things *around the battery, I guess* into place wasn't in there the way it should be, the metal tab wasn't in it's little slot, so I fixed that error, then went on with the procedure and then no more problem
    I'm an idiot, Apple rules, I'll be the first to admit it LOL
    Have a great day!

  • Add on iSight camera for pre-iSight iMac.

    I have added an iSight camera to my iMac. I was a little uneasy about attaching a magnet to the top of it. It appears that when it boots up the area below the magnet (top center of display) is noticeably darker than the rest of the screen. Can this magnet actually harm the LCD? Thanks.

    I have an iMac G5, 1.8 GHz, with a magnet iSight thing sat on top in the middle. Haven't noticed any darkening, and I'm pretty sure there's no reason to be worried.
    One thing I'll check for interest is whether there is also a magnet on the inside. If a non-magnetic piece of iron sticks to that part of the monitor it would suggest that there are two magnets involved, and so there's always a magnet by the LCD. That ought to prove that the darkening isn't due to the external magnet. I'll check when I get home.
