No audio with iSight and Macpro and 10.6.4...

I'm trying to get this iSight firewire unit to work with my Macpro running 10.6.4 for a skype video conference. I get video in skype but no audio.
I've tried searching, but haven't found anything. There is an isight updater, but it doesn't work on 10.4 or later.
Any ideas? Searching on my entire mac for the word "isight" brings up 0 results so I'm thinking I need some kind of software to get it working right.

Hello rhythmdevils
External iSights work fine on my 10.6.4 Mac Pro without running the iSight Firmware 1.0.3 Updater.
If the updater helps you, use it, but if you are still having trouble, test your external iSight with more than one app in more than one user account.
If your problem occurs ONLY with Skype in EVERY user account you test, your problem is "Skype-specific."
If you do not get the Skype answers you need here, Skype's comprehensive support pages should be your best source of help for Skype-specific issues.
For your specific problem, start with "Skype ... Audio Set-Up ... Mac OS X ...":

If you are still having problems with Skype, you may get faster answers by searching or posting in the appropriate Skype for Mac OS X forum:

  • Sync stickies on MBP and MacPro and iPhone?

    i have finally settled on using notational velocity (which i love) to sync data between my MBP and my MacPro and simplenote to get these to my iPhone.
    can i sync stickies between all three of these device? right now these only exist on my macbookpro and this is a big pain.
    new user so thanks for any help with this topic as i get the final sort going.

    It's either the connection from the laptop to icloud or from icloud to iphone that's the problem.  To find the answer, do the following...
    Using a computer's browser log into icloud.com and then look at the contacts page.  If the edits show up there, then the problem is from icloud to iphone.  If edits are not there, then the problem is from laptop to icloud.
    Whichever device the problem points to, verify that it is logged into the right icloud account and that Contacts is turned on.  (System preferences>icloud on mac or Settings>icloud on ios device.

  • Syncing Audio with Merge Clips option and OMF export question/issue

    Hi,
    In the past when I've edited video, when it came to syncing audio I always did it manually.  This time, using Premiere Pro CC, I used the merge clips option, to speed up the syncing audio process, which was a huge time saver with excellent results.
    The question/issue I have..is that when I get my OMF exported for my sound editor, will this screw anything up, since on the project file, it doesn't use the original audio file, but the one that was merged.  And in the project list, I don't even need to have the original audio file listed, since it's already been merged into a clip, which I used in the project.  I know it's the same file used, but will it mess anything up since a merged clip audio was used instead of just dragging the original track onto the timeline? 
    - Ken

    A good way to know for sure (and therefore feel comfortable that you're doing the right thing) is to do a test OMF export, then open this in Audition. This ill show you exactly what you're exporting.

  • Need help. VERY low audio with Tivo series 2 and Fios

    I just had Fios installed and want to use my Tivo Series 2 DVR.  However, the audio can barely be heard.  Any advice?
    Here is my setup
    1.  Motorola set top digital box with HDMI output to Television.  Everything is Excellent
    2.  Motorola set top box S video output to Tivo.  Red and white AV to Tivo audio input.
    In this setup, my standard def channels have excellent picture, but the volume is just way to low.
    I have run the Tivo setup procedures.
    When I try running Coax from the set top box to Tivo, I get NOTHING.  No audio or video.
    Is the motorola incapable of putting out enough audio via AV when HDMI is also connected?
    Help
    (please)

    Keyboards:
    The motorola is connected simultaneously to TV via the HDMI output, and to my TIVO, via S Video and AV outputs.
    When the TV source is set to HDMI, all is perfect (in fact, stunning).  Great sound.
    When I change the TV to receive S Video from the Tivo, I receive an excellent standard def picture, but audio that I have to crank up to full scale.
    I have not tried Motorola to Tivo alone, with no HDMI connection to the TV. 
    I do think your idea to use a second box (a simple SD digital converter) to hook up to the Tivo makes great sense.  If I split the feed, sending one to the HD settop box, and another to Tivo, then I get the best of both worlds.   I will get HD from the motorola, and can separately record on the Tivo. 
    I am still a bit concerned about audio volume, although the Tivo boards seem to say that Tivo works well with Fios.

  • Problem with 10.8;    MacPro and dual displays

    I have a MacPro with 2 video cards each running a separate Cinema Display.  It worked fine with 10.7.
    Now with 10.8  the behaviour is very erratic.  The displays get L-R reversed. Even when I reset them using System Preferences>Displays and close that (presumably saving the preference), sooner or later, if I do a restart it will reverse back  pattern. No particular rhyme or reason to this that I can see. Even physically moving the monitors L<-> Rt   doesnt help and sooner or later it changes again.  This is a major irritant with 10.8
    Any suggestions?

    That's a question better suited for Microsoft, but certainly has nothing to do with this forum for the Mac App Store.

  • Can't use LINE IN audio with iSight Camera on iMovie 08

    I want to record a video, using the internal iSight camera of my iMac, but I want to use the "line in" audio instead of the internal microphone of my iMac. I have tried for hours, and done the obvious things (selecting "line in" under System Preferences). I can record audio perfectly using Sound Studio or other programs, so it's not like the Mac isn't getting the audio. The problem is convincing iMovie to accept the audio of the Line In rather than the internal microphone of the iSight camera.
    Thanks to all who would reply.

    I've had the same problem, and it seems that this is simply not possible in iMovie... Disappointed!
    Instead, having set 'line in' as input under System Preferences, fire up Quicktime Player and choose New Movie Recording under the File menu.
    The movie will be recorded using system sound input, i.e. line in. It can then be opened / imported in iMovie for editing et c.
    This works for me with the built in iSight on an intel Penryn Macbook Pro.

  • Bounce or Export Audio with Send-EFX

    Hi,
    can somebody tell me, if there is a time-saving solution to export audio with the sends, automation and inserts? Of course I can bounce a solo-track step by step, but if you have to do it with 100 Songs...
    Tanks for every note

    Use the Bounce button on the Stereo Out. Exports audio with sends, automation and inserts. The whole shebang.
    100 songs ? That's ten albums right there. Are you related to Frank Zappa ?

    i am looking for a messenger compatible with the built in isight camera, audio and video, and it needs to work with a @hotmail.com account. it is just for at home personal use but i really like talking (verbally) with my friends while they can see me. Microsoft messenger and ichat both wont work.

    Welcome to Discussions, DillonR333
    (1) I am not certain exactly what you are trying to do because hotmail is email. If you merely want to attach a video clip to an email, your iSight can do that without mercury.
    (2) If you are looking for a video chat app that is compatible with the Windows Live chat server, consider the following:
     • http://www.microsoft.com/mac/products/messenger-8/default.mspx
    Because Microsoft has apparently changed its protocols, the old Mac alternatives
    (Microsoft Messenger for Mac, Mercury, and aMSN) will no longer connect for video. 
    For more info, see: http://tinyurl.com/ycxnbpr
    (3) Any video chat apps, including the above, can work with your built-in iSight. If you think you iSight may be faulty, troubleshoot as recommended here:
      http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
    (4) If you have problems video chatting even though your iSight works with Apple apps like QuickTimeX and iMovie, your problem is likely software. You will need to determine whether you are using the correct client app for the chat servers that your contacts use. Ask your contacts to tell you what computer, OS, and application they are using for video chat. From that info, we can determine which software you need to run to connect to the same chat server they are using.
    (5) If your problem remains although you have compatible client software and your iSight works with Apple apps, you may have a bad download or install of the software. You can try downloading and reinstalling again.
    (6) We will watch for your status update. If you need more suggestions, give as much info as you can about what you are trying to do and what you have tried that does not work. We will offer more specific suggestions based on the details in your reply.

    The advantage goes to FCP7 if you allow that it can copy and paste filters, audio and video, transformations, and other attributes separately.
    You can do that in FCPX too, as all the things you cited are listed separately in the inspector.
    Here's a little gotcha. Let's say you've color corrected a few clips and you've applied an effect to one and want to paste it the other clips. You switch off color correction and copy the clip. You select the other clips and paste effects. What do you think happens? The effect is applied, but the color correction is applied as well, only it's switched off as it was in the first clip, so all the color correction on the other clips is lost. Fun, eh?
    I'll try to replicate your gotcha - but no, that doesn't sound like fun at all!

  • Facetime Audio don´t work with 10.10.2 and iOS 8.1.3

    Hello!
    After the Upgrade to Yosemite 10.10.2 on my Mac Pro and iOS 8.1.3 on my iPhone 5 i cannot make Facetime Audio Calls anymore. The Problem is that when i get a call or make a call i can hear the people but they dont hear me. The settings don´t change. The Microphone on my Logitech Webcam is selected in Facetime App and in audio settings but it dont works. The Microphone is not broken i tested it with Quicktime.

    i Must correct again. With soundblaster drivers deinstalled Facetime Works better as before but the bug was already there. Sometimes my voice disappeared and the caller don´t hear me.  i think there is a Bug between Yosemite 10.10.2 and iOS 8.13 and i hope with 10.10.3 and 8.2 this bug was fixed.

  • No audio with Samsung UN40H6350 and Apple TV

    Connected the latest Apple TV (3rd gen?) with a new Samsung TV (UN40H6350) over HDMI. I can hear bleeps when navigating the Apple TV, but when I play a movie or music via iTunes or Netflix or Youtube, it doesn't have an audio.
    When I use AirPlay from my MBP, I can play iTunes music and it works. So it seems like the sound works ok via HDMI, but any other content just won't play sound.
    I tried AirPlay from iOS7 to Apple TV with Apple's Trailers and Youtube app, still no audio.
    Thanks

    So I have resolved it, it turned out to be an issue with Airport. The sound was redirected to Airport Express from Apple TV. If you tap and hold the circular button on Apple TV, you can set the sound output from Airport Express back to Apple TV.

  • Problem with audio of my notebook. Audio works through pc speakers and earphones at the same time

    Hi all, 
    thanks in advance for your advices.
    I have a problem with my notebook (HP pavilion g6 2305 sl).
    The problem is that when I connect my earphones the audio of my pc don't stop, hence I can hear (music, film, ...) both by earphones and speakers at the same time.
    I tried to install again the latest driver audio, but nothing was changed.
    I tried to use another pair of earphones, but nothing.
    I have noted that if I connect the Jack at my pc, but not until the end, the audio stops from the speakers and goes through the earphones, but only if the jack is not completly inserted in the notebook.
    I read a lot of forum on the web but I'm not able to find a solution for my problem.
    (ps. the problem comes out suddenly, without any signal. I don't have installed any update or new software before the problem's start)

    Right click on speaker icon, lower right screen.
    Choose playback devices.
    Select "speakers and headphones" as your default.
    Disable "communications headphones".

  • Any fix for CC render issue with the new MacPro Firepro D700.  Getting lines and flicker as documented in threads

    Hi,
    We're facing some critical problems with our new MacPros, CC, and the Firepro D700's.   It appears that after we upgraded to 10.9.3 the D700's no longer work with Creative Cloud.  Our Premiere renders are full of artifacts, lines, and drop out.   Same issue as documented in RENDER PROBLEM - AME and Premiere Pro CC causing random horizontal lines on H.264 Renders     Can you advise as to when the fix will be pushed?  We have turned to "software only" render, which is killing us for time.  We have a huge amount of work that goes through 4 edit bays and its putting us days behind.

    What am I doing wrong?

    After selecting and deleting region, and joining remaining parts, it keeps playing the track with the deleted region!
    What am I doing wrong?
    How exactly are you doing this?
    When I cut out a part of an audio region, then drag the remaining parts together, so they are touching, the track will skip the cut out section when playing the file.  Also, if I select the remaining parts of the region and use the command "Edit > join regions". This will create a new audio file with the cut out part deleted.
    You should see this prompt, when you are joining the regions:
