Logitech camera on a mini

Im having trouble trying to use my old QuickCam Pro 4000 on a mac mini. I've downloaded the drivers from Logitech and it does work with their software QuickCapture. However, there's no way I can get it running neither with iChat, Skype or even PhotoBooth - all these programs simply say there's no camera. The mic does work oddly enough.
any ideas? Thanks

Hi,
So... a Mac Mini with an External Logitech camera using Photo Booth with Backdrops and Effects and then selecting a Backdrop option.
The Messages should come up from as long as Photo Booth detects movement.
If you stop partially out of the pic that portion of you may display in an odd fashion.
I presume you are saying that Photo Booth is not giving you time to move out of the Frame.
From there I presume you get this sort of thing
Uploaded with Skitch!
It might pay to delete the com.apple.PhotoBooth.plist
I can't see this holds a timing item in it but some standard settings don't show when using Property List Editor.
Have the Finder as the "Front" App
Use th Go Menu
Whilst in Drop down hold the ALT key
Select the Library that appears
In there open Preferences
Find the listed .plist and drag it to the Trash
Restart Photo Booth.

IMovie 6.0.4 Not Recognizing Logitech Camera - Why?

Not sure how to get iMovie to recognoze my Logitech camera is connected. The camera function fine on its own.
Running a Mac-Mini 2.3 i7 - OS X 10.8.5

From the Keyboard Shortcuts in the iTunes Help menu:
iPod shortcuts
Prevent iPod from automatically updating when you connect it to your computer
Command-Option as you connect the iPod to your computer (hold the keys down until the iPod appears in the iTunes Source list)
After that you can use Senuti or iPodRip (latest versions on versiontracker.com) to transfer songs and/or playlists back to the iTunes Library.
Hope this helps.

Video recording software for Logitech camera

Hello,
I want to know if I can attach my Logitech camera to my PowerBook G4 to RECORD surveillance video.
Is my old laptop compatible with Logitech? (I presently have this camera connected to my MINI drive for skype).
If it is compatible, would you recomend a video recording software, I can use for my G4?
Please let me know if surveillance video recording is possible using my powerbook!
Thanks!
martha

The only software that I know of which will work with 10.3 is Debut Video Capture for Mac or EchoFX
I believe they are paid versions, but do come with a trial version. There is nothing I've seen on the Open Source market for video capture.
There is a link here on how to use Quick time broadcaster, that you could adapt it to record security footage I'm sure.

Logitech camera v-ubq42 not working

Hello,
I just bought a new mac mini (late 2012) and I am trying to use a logitech camera model V-ubq42.
I tried everything but is not working, also in the logitech website there is no drivers for mac.
Any help?
Thanks a lot.

Most Logitech cameras are not Mac-compatible. The manufacturer's website should tell you whether yours is.

How to connect Zi6 HD camera to mac mini for video in?

I am wondering what is the best way to connect my Koday Zi6 HD camera to my mini so that I can grab video directly from the camera. The camera has HD and AV mini jacks. It also has a built in flip out usb socket, like the flip camera, but this I believe is only used for uploading video files.
I have had a look around the cables section of the Apple store but nothing leapt off the shelf!
Any ideas?

Is there such a thing as a USB to AV phono adapter?
Not as a simple cable, no. You would need a device to convert the AV stream. Personally I use an old(ish) Sony camcorder for this task, but there are other solutions. You might have a look at Eye TV products (http://www.elgato.com/elgato/na/mainmenu/home.en.html) for example.
If not I guess I'll need to buy that iMac a little earlier than I had planned.
An iMac won't offer you any more options for this than a mini - neither have the means to accept AV input via composite, component etc.

Problem to import clips video with "Lightning to SD Card Camera Reader", my mini ipad and my camcorder?

I need import immediatly my clips video from my camcorder in my mini ipad with my SD card.
Solution: I have to use "Lightning to SD Card Camera Reader"
Problem: When i insert my Sd card in the "Lightning to SD Card Camera Reader", my mini ipad don't recognize the sd card... And i'm sure the format of clips video is accepted by ipad (specs).
I know why my mini ipad don't recognize the sd card... Because the directory where my camcorder put the clips video on the SD card is not accepted by "Lightning to SD Card Camera Reader". After some research, this device accept only the video in "DCIM" directory.
So my question: WHO KNOW WHICH CAMCORDER CAN BE ACCEPTED BY "Lightning to SD Card Camera Reader" WITH CORRECT VIDEO FORMAT (SPECS) AND CORRECT WRITING DIRECTORY "DCIM"?
Thanx for your help!!!!!

Since the ipad is not a computer it cannot be expected to behave as such. The resources are limited and so are the capabilities. Some things will work just fine but others will not. You have to be willing to make some compromises and accept some of the limitations, otherwise you will end up being frustrated. Maybe another device will better suite your needs.

Problem initializing device in applet for logitech camera

di = CaptureDeviceManager.getDevice(str2);
catch( Exception ex )
System.out.println( ex.toString() );
System.out.println( "Capture device = " + di.toString());
ml = di.getLocator();
System.out.println( "Locator = " + ml.toString() );
player = Manager.createRealizedPlayer(ml);
System.out.println( "Player = " + player.toString());
player.start();
System.out.println( "Player started" );
catch( Exception e )
System.out.println( "Error initializinig video player");

Photo Booth doesn't recognize logitech camera

I have a logitech camera, it works with Skype, iChat and is recognized by Photo Booth but the screen (photo booth screen) is black. If I take a picture, it counts down but then nothing. The camera works in all other apps. If I remove my Elgato Hybrid, then it works...nothing else I have tried, helps. Any suggestions?

I downgraded the photo booth app using pacifist to an older version and it now works fine after experiencing the same issues you report.
This was on a G4 MDD upgraded to 10.5.8. I installed Photo BOoth 1.0 and now works fine. 10.5.8 Photo Booth version is 2.0.3.

I've used Firefox for years and happily. I attached a logitech camera and dowloaded Skype a few weeks ago when I also loaded iTunes for my iPad. Now the site goes out almost everyday. Can you hel pme?

I can't undertsand what is going on since the closing has never occurred before.
I have not written down the incident #s.

The offer from EE was presumably to fix the phone , which they are entitled to do, you turned it down.
You can either go back to them and take up their offer to repair or you can try the Nokia warranty which will involve you contacting Nokia direct either by taking it to an authorised/approved Nokia care centre or submitting an online claim under the warranty to Nokia and following whatever instructions they issue for sending the phone to them.
You have not so far contacted Nokia as you have dealt only with EE.
I'm surprised the EE assistant told you the phone was being sent to Nokia rather than their inhouse technicians although I think that was simply a mistake on the assistant's part.
How did you get a PAYG phone from EE? I thought EE were offering contracts only.
So far as time scales EE don't post phones backwards and forwards on an individual basis. The shops use courier services and the frequency of deliveries and collections will depend on the number of shops in a town and the level of goods going back and forth.

Camera for mac mini

I am looking for a camera that will work with Photo Booth on a Mac Mini, OS X 10.8.2, 2.5 GHz i5, 4GB. I have the IceCam2, but that does not work with moving backgrounds (e.g., rollercoaster).

Hello Zack.
The Apple Store sells Logitech QuickCam Vision Pro, so it would surely work with your mini.
I could not find this particular Logitech in the BestBuy website. However, any UVC webcam (USB Video Class) should work for you.
If you buy a different webcam, be sure to get a UVC webcam so you can use it with your Mac's UVC-based System and applications.
Also, check to be sure whether the webcam you buy offers a microphone feature. Some webcams do not have one. Because your mini does not have a built-in mic, if you want audio in conjunction with your video, you will need to add one - either a separate unit or integral with your webcam.

View a USB Camera on my Mini from my MacBook

I have an older Mini, intel 2ghz, that I have a Logitech Quick Cam Vision Pro hooked up to. It is kind of spare now that the last larva went off to the big U. I want to remotely view the video on my MacBook or iMac to monitor weather & view outside. It has wonderful HD capabilities, I live in the high mountains, so the view is great as a feed. My problem is I cannot find a software package to view the video on one with another within the network. I know something has to exist, but I cannot seem to define the search down narrowly enough to not get a bunch of view it on my iPhone or security camera stuff.

Another trick that has worked for more than a decade is to plug in a still camera that has an LCD viewfinder. The image in the viewfinder now becomes a video camera on the computer. When you move the camera, the viewfinder image changes. That same motion is what turns a still camera into a video camera. All you need is the software on your laptop to see the video feed from your camera.

What about a camera for a mini?

Is there a third party camera that will connect with a Mini?

For Macally Cam's see > OWC macsales.com, plus there are a number of (Mac OSX Compatible) Logitech webcams that will also work with your Mac Mini.

Logitech S 530: Mac Mini sometimes doesn't recognise the keyboard/mouse

Hi!
I bought the Logitech S 530 for my Mac Mini Intel Core Solo some weeks ago. Sometimes the mac doesn't recognize the keyboard/mouse set and the Logitech Control Center say "No logitech-hardware found". And then all the extra buttons on my mouse and keyboard doesn't work. A simple restart doesn't solve the problem. Often I habe to switch of the computer or even deinstall und reinstall the driver. I wrote to the Logitech Support, and they told me to delete as a root-user some files and then to reinstall the Logitech Control Center. I did it, but the problem wasn't solved. Even if the Logitech Control Center told me, that the hardware wasn't found, the system profiler say:
USB Receiver:
Version: 22.40
Bus-Strom (mA): 500
Geschwindigkeit: Bis zu 1,5 MBit/s
Hersteller: Logitech
Produkt-ID: 0xc50c
Hersteller-ID: 0x046d
Does anyone have a idea about this problem?
Thank you,
Sebastian

Hi!
Has it continued to work alright since your last post
on Sept. 30?
Yes, it works very good (as you can read, because I type on it!)
But I got some news from the APE-Support:
They told me, that this message in the system.log isn't a error message: "You'll see these messages simply to inform that Application Enhancer cannot and does not affect processes owned by root. They are purely informative." Then I asked, why this "information" is written in the system.log I got another mail. They told me, that this message came from a maxtor software, which I installed to use my externel drive. and: "The maxtor software doesn't use APE at all. APE is saying it cannot affect the software in any manner, in case you were expecting it to work with the maxtor software. I'm not sure if that maxtor software even works. If you don't use the button on your maxtor drive, you can just disable the maxtor software completely."
So, I seems that there is a problem between this logitech driver with APE and the Maxtor-Stuff. But, Ashleyn, do you use the maxtor software too?

I want to get a web cam for the mini so I can use face time. I asked at the Apple store and they said I could use any camera. When I look at the cameras on Amazon they seem to all be Windows based so I am confused. Any suggestions?

We've used the Logitech quickcam Vision Pro for Mac on our mini, with 10.6, and ichat, which has worked well. Looks like it's discontinued, however, a number of sellers on ebay are selling them new for $60-$70.
