ISight not working with mac programs, functional with Tech Tool Deluxe

MBP 15 (late 2008)
iSight not functional, ie "no camera connected" when using photobooth, imovie, ichat, skype, but when I fire up tech tool deluxe 5, it's working - I can see myself and it is functional. Tried all the restarts, etc. Can I fix this myself or is this an applecare issue?
Thanks

Welcome to Discussions, johnnychickenfoot
One of the relevant suggestions from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090 will get it working.
If you can make your iSight work properly and repeatedly with any app in any user account you test, your problem is software related.
A properly performed reset as suggested in the Troubleshooting article often restores function to built-in iSights. If that continues not to work for you in any user account, consider software troubleshooting like the relevant ideas from here:
  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1388
Because your iSight works with TTD, your System Profiler should recognize your built-in iSight as a USB device. If you need to post back for other suggestions, please confirm that System Profiler can see your iSight when TTD is not running.

    Take it to an Apple Store and see about getting an out of warranty replacement. I believe it will run you about $150.

  • "Wait for sound" code not working in Mac OS X with 11.5

    Here is the code:
    on exitFrame me
         if sound(1) status <>0 then go to the frame
    end
    This worked fine in Director MX 2004, but in Director 11.5 it is causing unpredictable results in Mac OS X (works fine in Windows). Sometimes it stalls on the frame, sometimes it ignores the code, etc. Can someone suggest a solution here? The code should pause the playhead until the sound completes in channel one, then move onto the next frame (like the old "if sound busy" code). Thanks in advance for any help with this. I did search this forums and could not find this issue addressed.

    I may have answered my own question. Does anyone see a problem with this code?
    onexitFrame.me
         if (sound(1).isBusy())then
         _movie.go(_movie.frame)
    end if
    end

  • ISight not working with Webex, GoToMeeting or Lync...BUT works with Skype, Facetime, Photobooth (June 2013 MBA)

    Brand new MacBook Air (June 2013, 8MB RAM, 500GB SSD)
    iSight not working with Cisco Webex, Citrix GoToMeeting or Microsoft Lync (error = webcam not detected); BUT iSight works with Skype, Facetime and Photobooth.
    3 hours of phone support with Webex - no luck.
    Tried SMC and PRAM reset - no luck.
    Tried erasing disk and reinstalling OSX 10.8.4 and apps manually with latest versions - no luck.
    Apple phone support says it's not Apple's problem because Apple apps work.
    Exchanged at Apple Store for another new MacBook Air, again installed apps manually with latest version (not from time machine) - STILL NO LUCK!!!
    Is there an update Apple or Cisco, Citrix and Microsoft need to put out for the new MBAs or do I just have 2 lemons???

    You're welcome.

    It will be interesting to see what the vendors say about using a Mac-compatible external webcam.
    If not, some netbook or other Windows® device might offer compatibility at a much lower cost than a compatible Apple notebook.
    We will watch for your update(s).  What the vendors tell you will be very helpful to others who share this or similar issues with their new MBAs.

  • I have a licensed copy of Adobe Acrobat X Pro for Windows.  I recently switched over to MAC OS and would like to move my Adobe X Pro over but the CD will not work for Mac OS?  Can anyone assist me with this conversion?  Best,  James.

    Best,
    James.

    you cannot use your pc license to install on a mac.  you would need a separate license (and serial number) for that.
    adobe allows platform swaps, but only with the latest (xi) version, Order product | Platform, language swap
    your option to use acrobat on a mac are to upgrade to acrobat pro xi and change platforms, use a windows emulator (parallels/boot camp etc) on your mac or swap with a third party.

  • When Firefox is open the zoom function (option/command/space bar) does not work in Adobe programs (InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator)

    Mac OS X 10.6.7
    CS 5.5
    When Firefox is open the zoom function (option/command/space bar) does not work in Adobe programs (InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator). This happens only when Firefox is open and when I close it the zoom functions work fine again without having to restart the applications.
    This is intermittent but happens quite frequently each day if Firefox is active.

    MDN doesn't mention -chrome being used for ordinary web pages: https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Mozilla/Command_Line_Options#Chrome
    When I use
    firefox.exe -chrome about:permissions
    I get a usable window, but zoom doesn't work as you noted.
    How about using an intermediate page and window.open() for the target page? You can (mostly) restrict the chrome of windows opened that way, but it will leave behind the intermediate window...

  • Test sequences not working in standard prototype adaptor with Execute Steps in process

    Test sequences not working in standard prototype adaptor with "Execute Steps in process" but the sequences works in "Execute steps in an External instance of CVI"(Debug mode). Pl help with solution
    Apriciate your help
    Regards,
    Sharanu

    Sharanu,
    Thanks for contacting National Instruments. It would help us out a lot if you could specify exactly what is not working. Will the sequence just not run? Is it giving you an error message? Or what exactly does not work about it? The initial thing that I could think of that would make it not work in External Instance but not using the RunTime Engine is that you might be missing a support library when trying to run it in this configuration. If you click on the "Configure Auto-Loading of Support Libraries Needed for Linking .objs and .libs" button, you can make sure that all the support libraries you might be using are added in this list (you can add them using the "Add Other Libraries..." button). If this does not fix your problem, then let us know a litt
    le more about what is going on and we can help you from there. Thanks.

    Hello i am nitin from india, i purchased a iphone5c because i heard that iphone comes with a great coustmer service, but this statment becomes totally wrong today, when i faced coustmer executive at service center of iphone then he said that i have to check it out and it may be a physical damage, ( how it is possible even i carried this phone with anti shock cover guard and its never fall down from my hand.) the simple thing i know that i want my phone replaced, otherwise it would be a great mistake of my life to purchase an iphone.

  • Rusher dominance is not working on my iPad 1 with iOS 5.1.1 .Can anybody tell me it's reason ? If there's any reason please tell me how to fix it

    Rusher dominance is not working on my iPad 1 withies 5.1.1 please tell me it's reason the same problem is with many other games e.g. Acr drift and highway rally.

    Thanks for the swift reply, I have been looking online and a loose plug seems to be somewhat of an issue with many, I hope mine is actually a problem and not what others are experiencing. It's taken me this long to even reach out for the simple fact I HATE being a complainer but this is just horrible.
    Do you have an iPad 3 as well? And is yours not experiencing any issues close to mine?
    Thanks again!

    i have the i phone four and just uploaded to my computer and now it will not work  has the apple logo with a long oval bar under it

    It may be that it is stuck loading. You will want to probably first attempt a Hard Reset (Home Button + Power Button for 5-10s until it restarts with an Apple Logo then let it load up) and see if this will get it working.
