ISIGHT for Yahoo Messenger

Hi Everyone,
Does the iSight web camera supporting to yahoo messenger in windows operating system? Thanks in advance.
Sri.

If you search in the iSight forums on Apple support you'll get better info.
iSight on iChat = both video and sound work fine. If you are talking to a person on PC, then both video and sound will only work if they are using the latest AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) on Windows.
iSight on OSX Yahoo IM = only video works - there's no sound options in the OSX Yahoo IM preferences so they didn't even code that in.
iSight on Windows Yahoo IM = only video works. No one has coded a driver that works with the firewire microphone part of the iSight yet.

Can u use a USB webcam on an iMac with built-in isight for Yahoo Messenge?

Hi...I hope someone can shed some light on this.
I have an intel core duo iMac 20 with built-in isight.
I use Yahoo Messenger (the new version) and have no problems getting my isight to work with it.
For most circumstances, the built-in isight is fine... but sometimes having a camera with a zoom feature and the ability to pan further up or down would be most beneficial.
I also own a usb Logitech (pro-4000) webcam (the last series for which they have Mac support) and have installed the latest Mac drivers for it. I can get the Logitec to run its built-in applications, but when I try to select a webcam to use for Yahoo (in the yahoo preferences webcam section), the only selection available to me is the built-in isight.
Is there any way to get the option to choose between the Logitech and the isight?
I tried macam drivers, but that just gave me an application that allowed me to record video or snap pics from my Quickcam, Yahoo Messenger still does not recognize it as a source.

macam driver and macam component installation resolves this issue

The cheap & easy way is to just drag the app to the Trash.
If you want to get all of the associated files use an app deleting app like the free AppCleaner;

Just drag an app and drop it on the AppCleaner icon in the Dock and it will find and present to you all the files it thinks are associated with the app. You can uncheck any that you want to keep and then let AppCleaner Trash the rest.

Is it possible to use isight with yahoo messenger?

Yes, but YM does not support voice on Mac. You can get moving pictures, but no audio.

I-sight for yahoo messenger

i have a new mbp. i've installed yahoo messenger. first time i used it, it was okay. webcam was good (using the built in isight). the next day, i cant use the webcam for YM. it always stops. why is that?
Thanks

As I have a PC-using girlfriend halfway 'round the world that I called using Skype for audio and Yahoo for video, I was motivated to find a solution quickly until Skype adds video for Mac (hurry, Skype, hurry!).
Anyway, I have a free solution that turns out to be better than Yahoo anyway: SightSpeed. They've got video chat (w/video voicemail!) for PC and Mac, and the PC/Mac versions work together.
Check 'em out. http://www.sightspeed.com
If this company can do Mac/PC video already, then I don't know why Skype isn't ready yet. It's got a pretty good user interface; but the audio's a little funky for me (sounds like 50's sci-fi sound effects in the background no matter how I tweak it or using headset), so I'm sticking with Skype for audio and SightSpeed for video.
GOOD LUCK!

Where can we suggest new features for Yahoo Messenger and other RIM IM clients?

I just downloaded the new version of Yahoo Messenger and I like the user interface. But every time a new version comes out, this application creates a less-complete history of contact behavior. Several versions ago, the contact's status showed up in the open conversation, along with the time stamp of when the status changed. This included Idle and Custom Status changes. That disappeared. In the last version, you could see the time the contact signed in or out last, and sometimes both. Now they're gone as soon as you close the conversation.
The whole idea of having Yahoo up on the BlackBerry all the time is that you don't have to be staring at the screen all the time, that you should be able to take it out of your pocket and check out those events that occurred that didn't set off alarms. I'd like the whole contact history to be right there, for as long as I want to keep it active. How can I make this suggestion to RIM for the next version of Yahoo Messenger? Thanks.

Web Cam does not work for yahoo messenger

Hi,
I down loaded a s/w MacCleanse, it kinda deleted a lot of files from my mac book air after which the web cam stopped working on yahoo messenger. I checked Ichat the cam works perfectly but does'nt with messenger. Does any one have a clue on how to fix this..

from my experience, attempting to use two programs that allow the use of the camera will render it unusable on the second program attempting to use it. So, if you started iChat first, then forgot to quit the program, and are now trying to use Yahoo Messenger, then you must quit iChat first and it should work.
Not unless your cam is really broken?

Heads-up for Yahoo Messenger

In my archive & install of Leopard Yahoo Messenger quit at every startup. But there's a fix if this is happening to you. Back somewhere on this thread were instructions how to change a code line. It had been busted by the beta of Safari 3 and though it worked, it would always scroll back to the top.
I made this fix to mine in a copy of Yahoo Messenger. This version works.

It's not perfect though. If you log in invisible and the names are in italics, they do not change to plain when you become Available. And the opposite is also true. But click on each name individually will change the state of the text. There's a feedback option under the Help menu.

Yahoo Messenger for Mac

Why does photosharing and file transfer not work for Yahoo Messenger for Mac?

Hi, tvpappy. On the Yahoo Messenger homepage, it's noted that v. 3.0 Beta requires at least os X 10.4. If you're still running 10.3.x (as the System Info below your post indicates), then that's why YM 3.0 Beta doesn't run on your machine.
