Isight Stopped Working After Installing Quicktime Software Update

This afternoon when I logged into my Macbook, it automatically detected new software update for Quicktime. As always, I let the computer download and install the software. However, this time it created a lot of problems for me. First, I couldn't connect to my network (I use Airport Express) although the signal was strong. After reset modem, router and Airport, finally I could get on network. However, then I found out my Isight stopped working. The light on the right side of the built-in camera was always on (green). My Photo Booth screen appears green all the time. I no longer can use Skype video chat. Does anyone encounter the same problem? Can anyone help me out? I use Macbook, the operating system is OX 10.4.3. Thanks.

Welcome to Apple Discussions, Freepisces
I have all the latest updates on my Macs, and I have no problem at all.
If you applied the latest (7.4.1) QT update, your problem may be due to the fact that the System Requirements for QuickTime 7.4.1 for Tiger include Mac OS X 10.4.9 or later, and you show that you are using Mac OS X (10.4.3). You can check which QT version you have installed using the QuickTime Player > About QuickTime Player menu command.
If your QT version is an older one that is compatible with your Mac OS, and if you have not done so since you applied the QT update, repairing permissions may help you.
If the problem is somehow related to your iSight rather than to your QT software, Apple's How to Troubleshoot iSight may help you identify and fix your problem.
Unless you have a compelling reason for not doing so, you should consider updating to the latest version of Tiger (10.4.11). To find out what improvements you are missing by staying with 10.4.3, see some of the "About the Mac OS X 10.4.xx Update" documents for updates later than 10.4.3. A couple of examples are:
• About the Mac OS X 10.4.6 Update (combo) and
• About the Mac OS X 10.4.11 Update
If you are interested, other "About..." documents are linked in this search list.
Because System Requirements for the latest combo applicable to your MacBook, Mac OS X 10.4.11 Combo Update (Intel), are for Mac OS X 10.4.4 or later, you will need at least two steps to upgrade from your Mac OS X (10.4.3), so pay careful attention to the System Requirements of any updates you plan to apply.

  • Autofill stopped working after installing latest OS Mountail Lion update Can anyone help? I've gone into preferences and

    Autofill has stopped working after installing latest update to OS X Mountail Lion (10.8). Latest of many problems with this OS - wish I had never upgraded to it. Can anyone help?

    Hi Eric, it is Safari but I thunk I've solved it by dragging the autofill into the safari toolbar and clicking on it when I want to use the fearture. Nothing else worked. this OS is a crock as far as I am concerned.

  • My Ipod touch email stopped working after installing Update

    my Ipod touch email stopped working after installing the latest firmware update from Apple what should I do?

    Hi, jewlssch. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If the Mail application will not launch, I would recommend processing any available updates on your Mac Pro and test launching Mail.  If the issue persists, process a reinstall of Mavericks.
    Reinstall OS X
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH10763
    Make sure to backup all of your data prior to reinstalling OS X 10.9.
    Back up your Mac

  • WiFi stops working after install of latest 10.8.5 update on MacBook 5,1 third time reinstall OS X

    WiFi stops working after install of latest 10.8.5 update on MacBook 5,1 third time reinstall OS.
    MB used as email and surfing tool when on vacation. Worked fine for months. Installed the latest security patch (update) and WiFi quit working. Two days later (still on vacation) WiFi started working again and worked fine for the next 2 days.
    Came home and formatted and reinstalled 10.8.5 and all was fine again. We are selling the MacBook and setup new user, everything worked fine.
    The update came up again so I decided to install it and WiFi instantly stopped working after the restart.
    Does anybody have any idea what is happening.
    Thanks

    Not really, although WiFi has been a longstanding problem for lots of people. I fix for some breaks others.
    However, if you are trying to sell it, you need to revert it back to the OS that shipped with it. You cannot sell your copy of Mountain Lion with the Mac. It is only licensed to you.
    You also need to include the system disks that came with the Mac. If it came with Leopard (10.5), and you have a Snow Leopard (10.6) disk, you can install that if you provide that disk also.

  • PS 6 beta stopped working - after installing my old tablet

    PS 6 beta stopped working - after installing my old tablet
    Just to let U know, everywhere else (GIMP,Paint etc) there is no problem,
    also tablet is fully working and operational,
    drivers are up to date,
    PS 6 beta brign an error 01 .
    Also say about contating support ...
    How can I constact support when I Dont have a license or serial number etc..
    since it ask me about it while trying to reach support.... pointless! mad!
    ? What now? should I trash my favorite tablet and buy some junk just because of this BUG?
    or will it be solved somehow?
    I do believe that nobody will even care about one human and none of programmers will update
    database of this program for older tablets,,, but JSUT TO LET U KNOW - its not working.
    and free software as GIMP is working just perfectly, and adobe **** is not even opening a program..

    oh well, as I mentioned my tablet is old, ( but i thought that new version of photoshop will contain also some parts from old ones for compability, as U said its not working like that o.o  ) is is Pentagram Duo Pen (USB)
       I uninstalled tablet drivers and adobe software and reinstalled again without tablet, now it's working so it was a driver that messed up all..
    Oh, the error code nr was : 1 
    i also was suprised but this is what I got from photoshop in error message the rest of it was about contacting adobe.com/support ..blahblahblah
    I am still not fully understanding how its possible that so well paid software is not compatble with my super old tablet while even stupid paint is..
    I am sure it is complicated, however as U see I am not able to anything else but operate with mouse.. or switch to linux and practice in gimp..
    if U wonna to take a look at the file of that driver i will post it here :
    (more files on http://download.pentagram.eu/en/drivers/graphic_tablets/duopen_usb/DuoPen_USB_Win2K_XP.zip)

    I need to setup 7800 Series IP Phones in the CUCM 8.6.2 which by default are not support but will work after install the software. Anyone have document from Cisco as I remember I seen once before.

    Hi Ali,
    I'll just add this reference to the good tips from my friend Manish (+5)
    Support for the 7800 series in CUCM 8.6.2 was first added with this
    Device Pack;
    Cisco Unified Communications Manager
    Device Package 8.6(2)(24104-1)Release Notes
    Cisco Unified Communications Manager Device Package Release 8.6(2)
    adds support for the Cisco IP Phones
    7821, 7841, and 7861 running SIP firmware release 10.1(1).
    The steps are in this doc
    http://www.cisco.com/web/software/282074299/107528/cmterm-devicepack-8.6.2.24104-1_Readme.pdf
    You might as well install the latest 8.6.2 Device pack

  • Ethernet has stopped working after installing "Security Update 2010-003"

    I installed the update recently and have been unable to connect to the internet. The network still gives me an ip, but the internet and server button remain "orange". The wifi still works.
    Has this happened with anyone else? I am curious as to how I can either uninstall the update or make the ethernet work again..
    Much thanks for any recommendations you may have.

    Welcome to Apple's discussion groups.
    I'm not having that problem after installing the security update.
    If you open the Network panel of System Preferences and select the Ethernet connection item, is it set to "Configure" "Using DHCP"? Do you see reasonable values for "IP Address", "Subnet Mask", "Router", and DNS Server"?

    What you are describing sounds more like a hardware issue than a software issue.  Make an appointment at the genius bar of your local apple retail store and have the device evaluated.

  • My distributed form has stopped working after Acrobat did an update the form no longer appears in my tracker.

    I had a form that auto collected data through Adobe but it has stopped working after my Acrobat X Pro did an update.
    The form no longer appears in the tracker. How can this be fixed? I am using Windows 7.
    It would appear that since Adobe are going to be closing the Workspace area in January 2015 that when
    Acrobat did an update the ability to connect to files in the Workspace has been removed.
    Is there any way to reconnect the file back to the Tracker?
    Has anyone else had the same problem?
    Adobe don't seem interested in helping as this question has been posted for three days and yet no response.

    First and foremost thing you can do it is that reset your Firefox and after that change it to safe mode.This may be happening due to venerable links getting downloaded.
    enjoy free web..... :)
