No image when using Photo Booth

The Photo Booth preview screen is black. When you take a picture it cycles but there is no image aquired. When I try to use iChat the camera works. Is the a software problem? How can I fix it?

Try running software update.

MBR2011 I take pictures using photo booth. I have a problem i am married and when i take the pictures my wedding ring appears to be on my right hand, and it should be on my left. I also held items in my my right hand and they appear to be in my left hand

If i have something on the left side of my shirt it appears to be on my right. I am married and my wedding ring appears to be on my right , and it should be on my left finger. Please help?

Option A: Open the images in an image editing program that offers a "flip horizontal" command, and use it.
Option B: Put your ring on your right hand when you want to take a picture of yourself using Photo Booth. :-)

How can I manually attach images from my photo booth (imported into iPhoto) to emails? Auto function, in photo booth has my photos lying sideways?

How can I manually attach images from my photo booth to iCloud emails?
They are imported as 'events' into my iphoto library.
Auto function, in photo booth has my photos lying sideways when placed in 'mail' emails?

There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps. If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
For users of 10.6 and later: You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
Show File: a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected. 3.b.
b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

Cant use photo booth since maverick downloaded

Back up all data.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, they may not work as described.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box markedAllow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take a few minutes to run, or perhaps longer if you have literally millions of files in your home folder. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

How stop PS6 from removing the DPI value from an image when using "save for the web"?

How stop PS6 from removing the DPI-value from an image when using "save for the web"?
Example:
- Open a tif image, that contains a dpi value (resolution).
- Use the splice tool in PS6.
- Export the slices with "Save for web", as gif-files.
Then the dpi value is removed, the gif files has no dpi value (it's empty).
How can we stop PS6 from removing the dpi value when using "save for web"?
OR:
When using the slice tool, how can we save the sliced pieces without PS removing the dpi value?

you can make your art go a little bit over the bounds. or you can make sure your artboart and art edges align to pixels

HP Photosmart 8750 prints slow when using Photo Gray Cartidge

HP Photosmart 8750 prints slow when using Photo Gray Cartidge ... sometimes indicates Black Cartridge failed, however upon reinserting works slow

Welcome to the HP Forums ButchG,
I see by your post that when printing with the photo gray cartridge the black cartridge will indicate that it has failed.
I can help you with this issue.
I would do a power reset to see if that will resolve the issue.
With the printer still turned on, disconnect the power cable from the back of the printer, if the printer has external power module with a detachable power cord disconnect it for 15 seconds and then reconnect it.
Hold down the power button for 10 seconds to drain the power.
Then disconnect the power cable from the wall outlet.
Wait 10 seconds and reconnect the power cable back to the wall outlet first, then the back of the printer and power it on again.
Make sure the printer is connected directly to wall outlet. (don't use a power hub or a surge protector)
I have provided a document for the cleaning the contacts and reseating the cartridge.
'Cartridge Failed' or 'Cartridge Not Compatible' Error Message.
What are the ink levels?
Are you using Genuine HP Cartridges?
Check the date on the cartridges to make sure they are still in warranty. (not old stock)
If you need further assistance, let me know.
Have a nice day!
Thank You.

How can I take a 600 x 600 pixel photo using photo booth

How can I take a 600 x 600 pixel photo of myself using photo booth. I need it for a passport application

If you live in the US, you will need to have your passport picture taken from the place you obtained your application, local county store (office), Federal buildling, and/or the post office. There are even places in the "mall" that are authorized to take passport pictures.
Photobooth photos won't do.

Not with just FaceTime on it's own. However if you would like to get technical you can use a 3rd party app such as CamTwist you can use special effects. If you would like help with that or have any other questions let me know. :-)

ICloud keeps crashing my iPads when using photo stream

iCloud keeps crashing my iPad when using photo stream, photo stream has downloaded over 600 .png files to my photo stream which are mac icons - these are causing all 3 iPads on iCloud to crash and report .panic.plist error messages. Help? I have turned off iCloud for now which allows the iPad to work.these icons were on my iMac too on iphoto which I have deleted and on our iPhones again which I have deleted. Would like to use iCloud but not until I can fix this issue.

Hi elizabethfromfernhurst,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
If you are getting the .panic.plist alerts on your iPad when using iCloud, I would suggest restoring the iPad back to its factory settings and using iCloud to sync your data back to the device.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

Is it possible to make a signature file using photo booth?

I"ve heard it's possible to use Photo Booth to make a usable signature for documents. How do you do it?

What type of documents? Exactly what do you want to do with Photo Booth. It does both movies and static pictures. Which do you want to add?

Make a Video using Photo Booth?

I once made a video using photo booth and the built in isight camera. However, today I opened photo booth and cannot figure out how to switch it to video mode. It just takes pictures. I believe there use to be a switch on the interface to change it to video mode but I can't seem to find it anyway.
How do I do this? Did they update photo booth and remove that feature?
I want to use photo booth to shoot my quick online reviews and not imovie.

Hello Derek
dolbinau is right! You need Leopard to use Photo Booth 2.
If you want to keep Tiger and still record video with "effects", take a look at WebcamTweaker
