Photo booth application disappear, photo booth application disappear

photo booth application disappear

Hello,
Did it disappear just from the Dock maybe? Open the Applications folder & if there drag it to the Dock.
Otherwise, Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at the top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."

Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)

  • My photo booth application disappeared!

    Hi
    I had my imac for about a year and photo booth has been fine up until recently. I recently tried to open my photo booth and I couldn't find the application! I tried searching for it in spotlight and the application didn't show up. The photos are still there but not the application. What do I do? Is it possible that I accidently deleted the app?
    THANKS!
    Jenny

    If Photo Booth isn't located in the Applications folder, reinstall it from your computer's original disks, and then reinstall any applicable Front Row updates. You may need to use Pacifist to extract it.

  • Photo-booth disappeared on one of our MacBook's accounts.

    Hello
    My little sister and i share a MacBook and her photo-booth randomly disappeared while mine is still present. Why did this happen? And can we get her photo-booth back?
    thanks a lot,
    jordan smith

    is the photo boot disappeared in her dock or her applications??
    you can remove anything from the dock with out the program being deleted.. its just like deleting a shortcut.
    So go to your HD, applications... go to photo booth... double click and when it turns on go over to the icon in the dock and click hold then select add to dock...
    Cheers

  • Okay so I have a Seagate Backup Plus Drive External Hard Drive and I'm trying to get it to backup Applications and stuff on the dock such as iPhoto, and Photo Booth.

    It's one of these External Hard Drives. I go to the Finder folder and go to the "Seagate Backup Plus Drive" to see what's in there and what I assume is that backups but the only thing that seems to be in there is folders from everything that is Desktop and a few Documents. The Applications folder seems to be empty and there are no folders for Photo Booth or iPhoto. Everything from GarageBand and iTunes seems to have been backed up according to the Seagate Backup folder when it is plugged in and opened. How do I get this thing to backup everything from Photo Booth and iPhoto? And by the way, I can't seem to access Time Machine the way you get it to where you can go back in time and see all of your stuff from previous dates. I don't know if this is important or a crucial part but I seem to not be able to access the actual time Machine Layout.

    Simple on that one - Download Carbon Copy and follow the steps below:
    if you have access to an external USB enclosure use it, or you can buy one for $10...
    install your new ssd in the usb enclosure - connect to your macbook...
    open disk utility and format/erase your ssd - mac os extended journaled.
    open carbon copy - clone your drive with it - source (your old drive) + destination (your ssd).
    once the clone is done, turn your macbook off - take old hard drive out - install new ssd in....
    turn your macbook on - if boot time is more than 40 secs to desktop - go to system preferences - startup disk and select your new ssd as the startup disk - restart your macbook - should be about 14 sec boot time now.
    install your old hard drive in your usb external enclosure and use it as a backup drive.
    good luck

  • Photo Booth Problems -- being used by another applications/ Please help!

    Hi everyone: I am having problems with my 17" iMac (C2D). Photo Booth worked great for the first few weeks. Now when I go to use it -- I get a message that says it is in use by another application or there is no camera attached. Well of course there is a camera attached and there is no other application running. I've tried shutting down and bring the computer back up, as suggested in other posts. That did not work.
    Any other suggestions please. I'd really like to get this going again.
    Sincerely,
    Anne

    Hello apple-chick
    Check to make sure that iSight was not left on in another app, it can only be used by one app at a time!
    1. See if the issue is application-specific.
    Try another application (iSight works with applications like iChat, PhotoBooth, and iMovie HD 6) to see if the iSight camera exhibits the same behavior in all applications.
    2. See if the issue is user-specific.
    Test your iSight camera in another user account. If the issue only occurs in one user, the issue would be isolated to user settings.
    3. Find out if the computer recognizes the iSight
    Check System Profiler (in the Utilities folder, inside the Applications folder). Under the USB header, check to see if the iSight camera is detected.
    4. Reset SMC
    Reset your computer's SMC and then check System Profiler again.

  • How to customise the backdrop in photo booth application?

    how to customise the backdrop in photo booth application?

    If you’re using Photo Booth in full screen, move the pointer to the top of the screen, then click the Exit Full Screen button.
    If you’re viewing a photo or a video, click the View Video Preview button.
    Click the Effects button.
    Browse through the backdrops until you reach User Backdrops.
    Drag a photo or video to one of the User Backdrop frames. You can drag a picture or video from your desktop, the Finder, iMovie, iPhoto, or Safari.

  • Applying Photo Booth effects to photos taken in another application?

    Is it possible to apply the Photo Booth effects to photos that were taken outside of the Photo Booth application? For example, I have some shots in my iPhoto library that I'd love to apply one of the Photo Booth effects to. I can't see an option for doing this in the Photo Booth menus or help section.

    I do not have a new iMac G5 (iSight), so I do not have Photo Booth either. However, looking at Apple's new iMac pages and the Photo Booth 1.0 Help info leads me to believe that Photo Booth is an application for making snapshots rather than for editing existing images.
    Check Photo Booth > Help on your iMac. If it does not tell you about editing existing images, you likely cannot do so.
    Depending upon your experience level, image editor apps like PhotoShop or PhotoShop Elements can add the effects to your existing photos. Adding effects to existing images will require some effort, but it can be done. Unless your version of iPhoto is one of the very early ones, you can even set your iPhoto > General preferences to open your existing iPhoto images in your image editor app for easy access and editing from within iPhoto.
    Because Photo Booth is only available with the iMac G5 (iSight) computer, you may find more help from Photo Booth users in iMac Discussions.

  • Photo Booth window disappeared

    Thought this would be the best place to ask this, but my Photo Booth window will not load up.
    Is there a preference plist I can delete, or a way to reset the app?

    HI David,
    Try deleting this file. com.apple.PhotoBooth.plist
    /Users/YourName/Library/Preferences. Drag that file from the Preferences folder to the Trash, empty the Trash and restart your Mac.
    If that doesn't work, you could reinstall the PhotoBooth application.
    To reinstall applications that came with your Mac:
    Choose Apple menu > Mac OS X Software, and search for the application.
    Insert the Mac OS X Install Disc and double-click the package that installs bundled software or additional software. A package has an icon that looks like an opened box.
    Follow the onscreen instructions. If you see a pane with a Customize button, click Customize and select the application you want to install. If you see a pane that lets you choose what to install, click the disclosure triangle beside Applications and select the application you want to install.
    If you can’t find the application you’re looking for, you may need to reinstall Mac OS X. Your documents and user settings will remain.
    Insert the Mac OS X Install Disc and double-click the Install Mac OS X icon. In the pane where you select the destination disk, select your current Mac OS X disk, and click Options. Select “Archive and Install” and “Preserve Users and Network Settings.”

  • Photo Booth default email application

    Entourage is my email application. Unfortunately, when I launch Photo Booth, it defaults to the basic non-Entourage email application.
    How do I change this setting?
    Thank you.

    You could start by posting in the correct forum - this is about iTunes ;p

  • Photo booth - camera used by another application

    Photo Booth suddenly gives the message that it is in use by another application - I have never used it in any other application nor is any other application running - using "user friendly" language, please tell me how to get this running again. The only new application I have installed is the program for my broadband connection (Verizon) - I don't know if the problem started at this time since I had not used it around that time. If this caused it, how to I get it to work again?

  • Photos disappeared from iPhoto Application

    Help! I have had about six months worth of photos disappear when I open iPhoto. The photos still exist in the files system in the iPhoto folder, but aren't showing up when I open the application. I have tried rebuilding the library database, recovering orphan photos and rebuilding my cache - with no luck. I mean the pictures still exisit, which is good but I hate to lose all the metadata (tags, titles, ratings, etc). Any suggestions??
    Thanks!

    None of that stuff works if the location of the pictures was changed, even accidentally.
    Check if you have this hierarchy in your iPhoto library:
    iPhoto Library
    Originals
    200<y>
    Roll <x>
    Modified
    200<y>
    Roll <x>
    Data
    200<y>
    Roll <x>
    The <y> would be the year number, I mean 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003 etc - if you have a photo from that year, there will be a folder for that year.
    The <x> would be some incremental roll number, e.g. Roll 1, Roll 2, Roll 3 and so on. Sometimes the rolls seem to skip, i.e. start with a much higher number - Roll 150, Roll 151, etc. Every time you import there's a new roll.
    The photos would disappear, if, for example, you moved the 2006 folder from Originals to the 2005 folder. See if that's the case and post back.

    If you have tried every relevant suggestion from How to Troubleshoot iSight but your camera is still not recognized anywhere in your System Profiler's USB Device Tree, you likely have a hardware problem.
    Properly applying the Combo version of the latest update for your Mac OS can sometimes correct software problems, but, if your trouble is caused by a hardware problem, there are no user serviceable parts of the camera.  For hardware help, contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service on your MacBook Air.

  • When I click on Photo Booth library it opens up the application instead of accessing my photo library

    I can only access my photo library by revealing the Photo Booth photos in the finder. When I click on Photo Booth library in the finder it opens up the application Photo Booth instead of my actual library.  It is possible that I deleted something last night I can't be sure. When I access the library by revealing in finder,  I checked the path it gives me and it seems correct  hd/user/pictures/photoboothlibrary/pictures.  Can I fix this so that I can access my Photo Booth library directly through the finder?

  • You can't use this version of the application Photo Booth.app 2.0.3

    Hi,
    Relative newbie for Mac OS X.
    Installed the latest update for the Operating System OS X 10.6 and first time I try to use Photo Booth after the upgrade I can not longer use Photo Booth!
    Surely this would be one of the first tests for any operating system upgrade (check standard utilities still function)? Is there a planned fix for this? Where can I get a compliant version of Photo Booth please (I depend on this app for my business)?
    Msg States...
    You can't use this version of the application Photo Booth.app with this version of the Mac OS X
    You have Photo Booth.app 2.0.3. (OK)

    This means for some reason the Photo Booth app is still the version for 10.6.
    Some people have reported that the update for whatever reason is missing certain apps (assuming that the application was never moved from its default location.)
    In either case, people have had success downloading the 10.6.1 combo update and applying it.
