My new 24 inch iMac..where's the web cam

Got it out the box, easily swopped over everything from my old g4 machine via migration ( how easy is that ! ) but can't find any controls for the built in web cam. Am operating OS X 10.4.8. Looked in prefernces.

You won't just 'use' the iSight. Try loading one of the many apps that come with your iMac designed to work with the iSight. Photo Booth, iMovie, iChat and Comic Life are all options you get right out of the box.

    I am going to load windows 7 via Boot Camp for other reasns. After that is done, and even with an external Blu Ray player, is it still not possible to play Blu ray movies?
    Thanks for your consideration.....

  • I have an iMac, where are the completed print jobs stored on the iMac and what format are they?

    I have an iMac,  where are the completed print jobs stored on the iMac and what format are they?
    My OSX is 10.10.1

    Hi
    If you are using standard system or HP drivers, than the jobs contents are not saved at all.
    You can see the list of completed jobs per printer via this URL: http://127.0.0.1:631/printers/
    If you want to save a print job, you can do it in the print dialog, by selecting an action prom "PDF" popup.
    It allows to save a job (prior or instead to printing it) as PDF or PostScript.

    Resetting User Password in Lion, Mountain Lion & Mavericks
    Boot into your Recovery Partition by hold down the Command and R keys whilst booting.
    When the Recovery screen appears, go to the Utilities menu and open Terminal.
    In Terminal, type:
    resetpassword
    ...a small app will open and allow you to choose the user for whom you want to change the password. If you are the admin, be certain that you choose your admin user. Type in your new password twice and give yourself a good hint. Click OK (or Done or whatever) and reboot, enjoying the use of your new, hopefully memorable, password.
    Good luck,

  • Capture an image using the web camera from a web application

    Hi All,
    Could anyone please share the steps what have to be followed for capture an image using the web camera from a web application.
    I have a similar requirement like this,
    1) Detect the Webcam on the users machine from the web application.(To be more clear when the user clicks on 'Add Photo' tool from the web application)
    2) When the user confirms to save, save the Image in users machine at some temporary location with some unique file name.
    3) Upload the Image to the server from the temporary location.
    Please share the details like, what can be used and how it can be used etc...
    Thanks,
    Suman

    1) Detect the Webcam on the users machine from the web application.(To be more clear when the user clicks on 'Add Photo' tool from the web application)There's not really any good way to do this with JMF. You'd have to somehow create a JMF web-start application that will install the native JMF binaries, and then kick off the capture device scanning code from the application, and then scan through the list of devices found to get the MediaLocator of the web cam.
    2) When the user confirms to save, save the Image in users machine at some temporary location with some unique file name.You'd probably be displaying a "preview" window and then you'd just want to capture the image. There are a handful of ways you could capture the image, but it really depends on your situation.
    3) Upload the Image to the server from the temporary location.You can find out how to do this on google.
    All things told, this application is probably more suited to be a FMJ (Freedom for Media in Java) application than a JMF application. JMF relies on native code to capture from the web cams, whereas FMJ does not.
    Alternately, you might want to look into Adobe Flex for this particular application.

  • Why won't skype activate the web cam on my kindle ...

    Why won't skype activate the web cam on my kindle fire hd?

    The question has been answered but not that you like to hear.
    You have been using an iPhone since 2011 with an iCloud ID that is not yours, how do you explain that?
    I saw a message that said your phone was lost and erased, and I was asked to activate my iPhone with my Apple ID.
    Since you know it was lost but not by you, you have an iPhone that is not legitimate. Your receipt may get you out of trouble with the police but that doesn't make the iPhone yours.
    Activation Lock cannot be bypassed and  if the your story is true then you should sort it out with Best.

  • (261936172) Q general Where are the Web Service source files?

    Q <general> Where are the source files for a Web Service created
    with WebLogic Workshop stored? How do I deploy the Web Service
    on a different WebLogic Server? Is there a way to bundle the
    Web Service project files manually to distribute them?
    Is there a way to configure the directory where Workshop stores
    the files?
    ANSWER: (by Adam Fitzgerald, [email protected]) The .jws files are stored
    in the project folder. This can be located on a local system, although by default
    they are in c:\bea\wlserver700b\sample\workshop\applications. The Web Service
    structure is understood by WLS 7.0 so by archiving the appropriate folder you
    can transfer the Web Service in its entirety from one deployment to another.
