ISight works fine in iChat but doesn't show up in Yahoo Messenger nor Skype

Hello, I was given an iSight webcam that works fine in iChat, but doesn't show up in Yahoo Messenger nor Skype, which are the IM programs I use…
I search on the Apple Support site a driver to download, but there is only an updater (iSight Updater 1.0.3) which doesn't run on Tiger... Any help please ?? Thx

You probably don't need it, but the Tiger "iSight Updater" is located in the \System\Library\CoreServices\iSight Updaters\iSight Updater folder.
(You must look manually because SpotLight does not find it.)
Double click the "iSight Updater" there to run the Firmware update manually.

http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10084429&#10084429
iSight "Product Revision Level" in your Mac's System Profiler shows the installed firmware version for external (Firewire) iSight.
Firmware 1.0.3 Update offers only "Improved audio performance". It does NOT enable audio or any other function, so that is NOT your problem with Skype or YMM. Search or post in their dedicated help/discussions for best and quickest help with those specific, non-Apple apps.
Regardless of whether System Profiler utility shows Firewire iSight's Firmware (Product) level of 1.0.2 or 1.0.3, external iSight ought to work. You can test your external iSight using the suggestions on this linked page:

  • Extras notes --- iPod works fine in iTunes, but doesn't show up in Windows

    Hi all!
    Gotta wierd situation.
    My iPod works fine in iTunes.
    I have had 'Enable for Disk Use' enabled for a long time. However, my iPod doesn't show up under My Computer on WinXP.
    I'd like to add some new Notes and remove some old ones, but you have to do that thru Windows, not thru iTunes.
    Any ideas how to fix this problem?

    hi marky!
    i noticed one thing. the iPod is formated as FAT32, but i have my HD in NTFS. could this be related?
    no, that one's normal. we need to leave her as FAT32. see:
    iPod no longer plays music after formatting or partitioning the hard disk
    hmmmmm. it's like the "enable disk use" setting is just refusing to stick for you.
    but maybe we've got a window of oppportunity while it's doing that initial sync. the rules seem to be different for you then.
    maybe try switching enable disk use off. then eject her, and plug her back in again (while you've got itunes already running).
    the second she shows up in the itunes sourcelist, try diving into the preferences tab, and re-enabling disk use.
    (i checked, and it's possible for me to do this with attractive beast ... hoping here that doing the "enable disk use" under these circumstances might get it to stick for you.)
    love, b

  • IPOD Nano works fine in Itunes, but doesn't show in explorer or My Computer

    When I first installed the Second Gen Nano, Windows explorer picked it up immediately as a drive and I could brouse all files on the Nano. My previously installed Itunes came up and stated I had to upgrade to a newer version for it to work.
    After installing the newest Itunes, it works perfectly, but, the Nano no longer is found on my explorer or in My Computer. What happened?
    My devices show the correct drivers and everything is working well. It is like Apple no longer wanted me to view the Nano outside of Itunes.

    Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately, the drive assignment and letter (P) initially used for the Nano is open and available, so there are no conflicts there. Further, Disk Management only identifies the HD's I have and no others.
    Everything appears cogent and within parameters, yet windows does not recognize the Nano (with exception to operational device drivers), while Itunes does and works just fine.
    The issue has something to do with the newest version of Itunes, as the older Itunes version couldn't read the Nano but explorer could.

  • IPod charges, but doesn't show up as a drive, nor does it show up in iTunes or the Device Manager.

    I was given in iPod Touch 8GB (used) for my birthday on the 8th, but I still haven't been able to get any use out of it it. When I plug it into the laptop it charges, but it isn't recognized as a drive, doesn't show up in the Device Manager, and is not recognized by iTunes. I've tried plugging it into a different computer, using a different cord, re-installing drivers, re-installing iTunes - everything! It's also stuck in recovery mode, and I can't do anything to get it out. I've tried restarting it, but it goes right back into recovery mode, telling me to connect it to iTunes. It's driving me batty! If anyone can tell me how to fix this, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! c:

  • Application works fine in Preview but doesn't play on iPhone?

    I finally decided to purchase a Developer license to start testing performance of my game on my actual iPhone. My game works perfectly on my computer, however I published to my iPhone and when it loads, it shows the graphics of the game but it is as if the game never starts. It is just frozen on the first frame of the game.
    I've tried doing a remote debugging session but it won't connect for some reason. I'm on the same wifi network, I've published from Flash using the Quick for Debugging option. When I load the game, it freezes on the first frame and doesn't ask for the IP of my computer (which is supposed to happen on debugging right?)
    What should I try from here?

    I got debugging working: I'm getting an error:
    Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2032: Stream Error.
    It corresponds with the first line of these three lines:
    loop = new Sound();
    loop.load(new URLRequest("hitit120.mp3"));
    loop.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, startMusic);
    I've included the mp3 file in the iphone included files publishing setting... Although what is weird is the stream error happens on the first line, before I even try to load the mp3..

  • SSI shows up correctly in DW but doesn't show up in browser.

    I am trying to update the company website here at work using Dreamweaver 4 and the copyright information at the bottom of the page is in an ssi file. The file shows up fine in Dreamweaver but doesn't show up at all in either of my browers (Safari/Firefox). What am I doing wrong?  

    The file shows up fine in Dreamweaver but doesn't show up at all in either of my browers (Safari/Firefox). What am I doing wrong?  
    SSIs are parsed by the server.  You're probably not doing anything wrong, you simply need to upload the files to your remote server and look at the pages on-line.
    If you want to preview local files, you'll need to install a local testing server on your machine. Get one of the following servers for your OS and follow the installation instructions.

  • Brand new MBP, iSight works for Photo Booth, but not iChat

    Hello. I just transferred all my stuff to my new MBP. When I try to video chat in iChat, I get the 'camera in use by another application.'
    I opened Photo Booth and the iSight works fine.
    I deleted the iChat prefs files, but it did not solve the issue.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

  • Report works fine in VS2010 but simply doesn't show when published

    Problem:
    Crystal Report works fine in VS 2010 but doesn't show when published to web-server, there is no error, it simply doesn't show.
    Background:
    Installed VS2010 on a freshly installed and fully updated (.net 4.0 is included in the updates) windows server 2003 box with production release Crystal Report 2010. Nothing else is on the server.  IIS 6 is running.  My web-server and VS2010 is on the same box.
    I went ahead and created a new asp.net 4.0 web project called webapplication1. Thereafter, i put a few controls (text-boxes, list-boxes and so on)  on the default.aspx page. Then i created a report.aspx page. This page will have the crystal report viewer on it. I went ahead and set the report up without much hassle (got how-to's from the internet).  I successfully tested my web app with the built-in testing server, the beautiful crystal report presented exactly what i asked it to. There was one recurring "Sys.Application is null or not an object" hiccup that occured every time during testing when i navigated from the default.aspx page to the report.aspx page (the page the report is on). Clicking ignore or continue  on the dialogue box that comes up because of the hiccup will allow testing to continue.  Here's a screen-shot of this recurring hiccup.
    http://i440.photobucket.com/albums/qq122/ricom_19/Testing-Error.jpg
    As i've shown, testing went great, except for the hiccup. I now moved to setup a publish profile. Since my web-server and VS2010 is on the same box this seemed relatively straight forward. All the files went over except the report, i.e. crystalreport1.rpt  file. I solved this by  setting the build action to 'Content' in the CrystalReport1.rpt properties. I did a republish. Now i have all my files, see screenshot: [http://i440.photobucket.com/albums/qq122/ricom_19/Application-Home-Directory.jpg], on the web-server.
    I proceeded to try to browse to my app from another computer on my network. This was successful until i tried to navigate to the report.aspx page that the crystal report is on. The the report.aspx page loaded but the crystal report was simply not on it. No errors, not even the hiccup from testing occured. Its as if the crystal report viewer was never on the page to begin with. Only when i right clicked on the page and 'view source'  did i see some remnants of the crystal report viewer.
    Here is the Report.aspx page when tested in VS2010:
    [http://i440.photobucket.com/albums/qq122/ricom_19/successful-Test.jpg|http://i440.photobucket.com/albums/qq122/ricom_19/successful-Test.jpg]
    Here is the Report.aspx page when published to the web-server and browsed to from another computer on the network:
    [http://i440.photobucket.com/albums/qq122/ricom_19/Reportviewer-Disappear.jpg|http://i440.photobucket.com/albums/qq122/ricom_19/Reportviewer-Disappear.jpg]
    Details of adding report to my web app:
    1) Populate my dataset then write the XML schema, reportschema.xml
    2) Added the crystal Report to the project then used the wizard to navigate to the reportschema.xml. Of course i had to create new connection in Database expert. see screen-shot:
    [http://i440.photobucket.com/albums/qq122/ricom_19/CR-Database-Expert.jpg|http://i440.photobucket.com/albums/qq122/ricom_19/CR-Database-Expert.jpg]
    3) I formatted the report the way i wanted it
    4) Added the Crystal report viewer on the Report.aspx page
    5) In the code-behind of the Report.aspx page i bound the viewer to a report document that is loaded with CrystalReport1.rpt file
    see screenshot: [http://i440.photobucket.com/albums/qq122/ricom_19/Report-Page-Code-behind.jpg]
    That's it.  As mentioned, it tested fine in VS2010 but the viewer doesn't show when i publish to the webserver. I wrote a crystal report in .net about 8 years ago. Things have changed soooo much since then.
    I am wondering if its a license issue? Was also wondering if it had anything to do the testing hiccup, even though research is suggestion the two are unrelated.
    I've described my actions as best as i could (without getting into ridiculous detail) and have included screen-shots of relevant stages of the process. Have a look and tell me your thoughts. Thanks.

    The "Sys.Application is null or not an object" issue is known, submitted for a resolution and documented in KB #1528503. Unfortunately the KB search has been down the last couple of days...
    However, the issue is limited to compile time and does not affect a completed application.
    Re. the viewer missing. Sounds like the viewer directory did not get created or configure correctly. Before I get to that. You mention:
    "I proceeded to try to browse to my app from another computer on my network."
    This bring up the question: If you run the app right on the app server. e.g.; not a client computer, does the viewer and report come up? Is this issue isolated to client computers on the network?
    I suspect that the issue exists irrespective of which computer you try to see the report from - but that is an assumption. If the assumption is correct, see [this|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/50aa68c0-82dd-2b10-42bf-e5502b45cd3a] article on configuring the viewer. The article does not have CR4VS2010 documented, but you should be able to guide your self using the article. I think the pattern will be obvious.

  • Isight works with photo booth but not in ichat or google talk or skype?

    isight works with photo booth but not in ichat or google talk or skype?

    Hi
    Is this an Internal or External iSight ?
    In iChat, in the Video Menu (This is to the right of Buddies and may read Audio) is Camera Enabled Ticked ?
    If it reads Audio open the Connection Doctor from that same menu.
    In the connection Doctor open the Capabilities tab
    Does it say your Internet Connection is too slow ?
    At this point I would need to know which iChat Version.
    However also look in the View Menu.
    Is Show VIdeo Status ticked ?  (this shows green Icons next to your Buddy Pic and those of your Buddies
    Next go to the iChat Menu > Preferences > Video Section
    Do you see a preview here ?

    I’m having an intermittent problem with my midi controllers triggering Mainstage 3.
    I’m using a PreSonus Firebox audio interface.
    It’s been working fine for months, but now when I first turn on the computer in the morning , I’m not able to trigger MainStage from the keyboard.  I tried different midi controllers, different keyboards, different midi cords, and check midi preferences.  The audio interface is working fine and is recogonized, but the midi doesn’twork.  I re-started the computer several times and then finally it miraculously starts working again.
      I’ve been having to this every day now.  Any help or ideas is very much appreciated.

    I Had the same problem with a FireStudio. Try unplugging the FireWire plug and the power plug. Wait for a few seconds, then plug both back in. The light on my FireStudio was flashing blue/red which means "not connecting." I did what I just described, and everything works again. Hope it works for you.

  • My ipad2 was working fine last night, but this morning is unable to connect to ANY wifi networks (though it can detect them).  All typical solutions fail.  What can i do?

    My ipad2 was working fine last night, but this morning when I woke it up... it no longer was connected to my network.  While it can detect networks, it cannot connect to any (have tried at home and at work).  I have tried: resetting router, resetting ipad, forgetting network, renewing lease on network, ensuring airplane mode is off, resetting network settings, turning wifi on/off.  None of the typical solutions I can find online seem to work.  HELP!

    I too am having the 404 media not found on my blogs, but its on both my mac and pcs. I am wondering if your macs can see it because of them being bound to the server?? Just an idea, which doesn't help me at all. So if you find a way to fix it please please post it.

    Do the events from your iPhone calendar appear on icloud.com?  If not, go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Calendar (in the Calendars section) and make sure you have selected an iCloud calendar as your default.  If you haven't, make this change, then add a new event on your iPhone calendar and see if appears on icloud.com and your Mac now.
