ISight indicator wont turn on

iSight is working perfectly fine but I was wondering why the green light indicator isn't turning on (FaceTime, Skype, iChat, PhotoBooth).

Try to reset the SMC and PRAM...

If the light is still off, then you have to take it to get the hardware replaced.

  • Battery wont charge and isight camera wont turn on-macbook, battery wont charge and isight camera wont turn on-macbook

    i bought a macbook from a guy and when i started it up... surprise it wont turn on if its not connected because the battery is not being detected.... then what i checked first was photobooth surprise the isight camera is not working... i searched in internet about smc but i do not understand it.... is there a way to recover it using the cd?

    Try resetting the PMU - Resetting MacBook and MacBook Pro System Management Controller (SMC). If you have no success then you'll need to take it in for service or replace the AC adaptor if it's gone bad.

  • Isight camera wont turn off

    My isight camera was working fine, then all of a sudden i went to take a picture with photo booth and the photo booth screen where i would show up is all green. I tried restarting and shutting down but it wont work, i dont have the any applications open for the camera and the light by the camera is green indicating that its on. I dont know how to turn it off.

    I had a similar problem with my iMac when I first got it.
    Have you installed 3rd party RAM? If I remember correctly, that was my problem. Replaced it and everything worked fine.

  • Clipping indicator wont turn off

    Okay, so I recently updated to ACR 6.7.
    Since then everytime I open an image there are clipping indicators that won't turn off.
    I know about the usual highlight and shadow indicators (pressing "o" and "u" respectively) and when i turn these on the other stuff disappears but if I turn these off then I get what I can only describe as less dramatic clipping indicators i.e. they are not just red but varying shades of purple and green.
    Any ideas what these are? Will try post some screenshots if needed.

    Had the opportunity to delve into the highlight clipping issue, and found another interesting anomoly. With ACR set to 100% to eliminate any display issues you can see in the first image the highlight clipping indicator with all the controls set to zero; which is what I would expect to see, and the highlights while hot, not too hot and moving the highlight control to the left as seen in the second image, the highligh clipping indicator is off with the highlight control set at -45 again with all the other controls set to zero
    The second image shows no highlight clipping...
    Now still reducing the highlight contol to -85 with all the other controls set to zero; and guess what? The highlight clipping indicator turned back on, not expected behavior.
    So while we have an anomoly with the indicator, do we also have a problem with the highlight control itself?
    I checked with the color picker and the highlight values with the control set at -45 showed R=254 G=254 B=254 not quite pure white, but still a blown highlight, but with the control set at -85 the RGB values increased to R=255 G=255 and B=255 which is pure white. At -45 there were some values lower than 254 but those increased to pure white wheras I would have thought they would have reduced in value as you further move the highlight control to the left
    Not sure if this will help Eric and team, but a few more datapoints.....

  • ISight Indicator Light Randomly Turning On

    I have noticed that my green iSight indicator light turns on for about a second and then turns back off. I don't have any programs using iSight running when this happens. I'm not sure what is happening, but does anyone have any ideas as to why this would be? This is a built-in iSight camera on a Macbook Pro running 10.5.5.

    Then take it back to the repair shop before the 90 day repair warranty is up. Advise them the repairs were not done properly. Your iSight cam is "broke."
    When it’s time to pick up your computer from the repair shop:
    * Before you leave the repair shop, make sure you have the repair tech(s) power the comp up and demonstrate that it is indeed working & repaired properly too your satisfaction.*

    My ipod touch 2g 8gb has no battery, wont charge on my pc (Hp Pavilion g6 intel Pentium 2.2Ghz, 2 gb) or on my outlet 220W, and it wont turn on. What should I do?

    Hi there fCdawg123!
    I have an article here that can address this issue for you and give you some further troubleshooting steps:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    As you may note, this article was written for the iPhone, but the steps for troubleshooting will be the same for your iPod touch. This is the section that I believe will help you the most with this issue:
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 15 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

    Wont turn on just flashes apple sign, for an ipad 2 what would cause this to happen When I tried to restore started to flash the dead battery sign

    Hello Tommythecat_nz,
    I would check to ensure that the device is fully charged if you got the dead battery indicator. Let it charge for some time.

  • E71 wont turn on! please help!

    i turn off my e71  and then it wont turn on!  idk whats wrong =[
    it wont charge or anything =[
    when i press the red button to turn it on  nothing happends
    please help

    It would seem to be a power issue as cjlim had indicated.
    I would try another charger and if possible another battery, the E71 battery is used in an N97 as well so if you know someone that has either device you can try theirs.
    If its is working with another battery, then you will need to observe what happens when its connected to the charger, if the battery bars are not incrementing when the battery is low then you either have a charger problem so try a different one, or the charging circuit in the phone has failed.
    I have not seen batteries just "fail" but its something that I wouldn't rule out, additionally the new smaller jack type chargers are prone to failure, as the cable near the plug fractures inside and this can cause charging to fail.
    Shunts...
    I will mostly be communicating with a Nokia E72 Zodium Black
    Nokia E72-1 with Vr 051.018.207.04 Software
    If this post helped... Add some kudos!!
