Photo Booth got lost.

(Hope this is in the right forum.)
My Photo Booth got deleted by a member of the family... so i was wondering if someone could tell me where I could download it?

Hello Maaadddyy,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Apple does not offer PhotoBooth as a download. Instead, you can reinstall it from your Software Install Disk that came with your Mac or from your Backup files.
If you use the Software Install disk, select reinstall "Applications." (You will not need to reinstall the System Software, too, unless part of that software was also deleted.) You can reinstall all applications software or only those that you know have been deleted. If you have trouble selecting specific applications, see the Install Disk's "Help" files.
Please let us know how it goes.

Photo Booth: Have lost picture settings, i.e. color, black and white, etc.

I have somehow lost the ability to choose what type of picture I want. The selections have always seemed as if they were chosen by a not very bright child, but there were at least three settings that were practical and useful. Now I only have black and white. My guess is that the problem is similar to when you sometimes lose the menu bar. The question is, how do I get my different settings back?

Hello Niku,
Here are some things you can try.
(1) Does the problem go away if you quit and relaunch
Photo Booth?
(2) Does the problem go away if you restart your
Mac?
(3) Does the problem go away after you perform the
routine maintenance operations?
( "Routine maintenance" means items a) , b) , and c) from
Travis A.- kmosx: Regular Maintenance / General
Troubleshooting)

(4) If none of the above fix your problem, try
Travis's item d)
using the following specifics:• Quit
Photo Booth if it is running.
• Delete your
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.PhotoBooth.plist
file.
( " ~ " means Your home folder )
• Close all windows and relaunch Photo Booth.
• Check to see if all effects are available again.
• If yes, reset your preferences if you like.
• Quit Photo Booth when you are finished making
pictures.Please let us know how it
goes.
Cheers,
Jim
Apparently, it fixed itself. This morning it's back in full operating condition. Thanks for your suggestions , though.

Photo booth functionality lost: where is the video/background replacement?

Hi,
I used photo booth to replace the background with a video.
For the camera I use an isight camera.
but now in MAC 10.5.2 there IS NO BACKGROUND replacement.
It does not display the option to add the video to be used in background.
By the way there are only 2 pages or effects now...
where is the video/background functionality now in photo boot?
thanks a lot

Hello avalokitesvara
"2 pages or effects" is normal for us Dual G5 users. Dual G5s can't use backgrounds (sometimes Apple calls them "backdrops" instead.)
Whether the background/backdrop is in iChat OR Photo Booth, a Mac with an Intel processor is required to use backdrops/backgrounds.

I deleted photo booth off my Mac. It is not in the application folder, and I do not have an installer CD. Is there anything I can do?

About a year ago I deleted Photo Booth. I somehow found a link to get it back, and it worked perfectly, but when I quit Photo Booth, I lost it. I could never find the link since. I have been looking for something despretly, but I have only found answers that have said "use your install CD". I got my Mac pre-used so I did not get it with any CD. Hence, my problem. I need someone to help. Maybe post another link or something?

check your purchase tab in the app store. if it does not show up there than you will have to buy it unless there is a backup available from a disc or time machine . hope this helps.

I lost my macbook pro and i just got a new one. how can i retrieve the pictures taken with photo booth(old laptop) to my new laptop?

Well if you don't have the laptop to get the storage drive out of it, and you don't have any previous backups how do you expect to get the photo's?
PhotoBooth is just a program, it stores the files on the computers storage drive, if the computer is lost so are your photo's.
There is nothing you can do to delete or retrieve them using your new computer unless you stored them online someplace.
DId you save them online? iDisk or something else?
I don't use such services because my data is mine and not theirs to snoop through, so if your looking for that sort of help I can't assist you any.

Lost Photo Booth pictures

Hi friends,
We got a new iMac with Photobooth. The kids made hilarious movies the first day. The next day (after we restarted the machine or mounted migration assistant a second time - I'm not sure), all of the Photo Booth entries were gone. Is there any way to retrieve lost PB pictures?
Thanks,
Jeff

Jeff,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Have you looked in the following location:? Macintosh HD/Users/yourusernam/Pictures/Photo Booth Folder.
If it is not there, I believe that it may be gone...
;~)

I backed up my entire photo collection to a flashdrive, when it finished my photo's got all grouped together and I lost all titles of events. can you help? thanks

I backed up my entire photo collection to a flashdrive.. After they downloaded, all my photo's got grouped together, and I lost all my individule events and titles of pictures.. Is there a way to get back my groups and titles? Thanks

To back up everything you must backup everything - ie back up the entire iPhoto library as a single entity
And it must be on a volume formatted Mac OS extended (journaled). Flash drives typically are not. They usually are a FAT format which will not work
Exactly how did you do the backup and what format is your flash drive

Lost my Photo Booth icon

Not only has the photo booth icon disappeared, but I cannot even locate it in Applications to drag it back.I seems to have completely gone somewhere.
Any idea what I can do please?

do a spotlight search for it. you may have moved it somewhere. if you can't find it you can restore it from a backup if you've got one. if not you can pull Photo Booth off the leopard install dvd using Pacifist
http://www.charlessoft.com/
reinstall 10.5.8 combo update after that to bring it to its current version.

Photo booth lost

how do i get photo booth back i deleted it off my computer

Perform a custom install from the Mac OS X 10.5 disks and install only that component if possible; if not, use Pacifist to install it. In either case, rerun the combo updater for your Mac OS X version afterwards.

I lost photo booth

i went to go use photo booth today on mac book pro and it wouldn't open the app. had a question mark on it. so i dragged it out if the task/menu bar on the side of my computer and when i let it go it disappeared. where did it go? can someone please help me?!

Look in your Applications folder for it. If it isn't there, then you've deleted it. You can recover it from your installer discs:
How to Use Pacifist to Replace Deleted or Missing OS X Components
Insert the OS X Installer DVD into the optical drive. Use a simple utility like TinkerTool to toggle invisibility so you can see invisible items. Alternatively, open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder and at the prompt enter the following:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles Yes
Press RETURN.
To turn off the display of invisible files repeat the above command substituting No for Yes.
The install packages are located in the /System/Installation/ folder on the DVD.
Download the shareware utility Pacifist from VersionTracker or MacUpdate. Use it to extract a fresh copy of the missing item(s) from the file archives on your OS X installation DVD. The file archives are in the /System/Installations/ folder (use Go to Folder option in the Go menu of the Finder.)
Here are Four Basic ways to use Pacifist (courtesy of George Orville.)
A. Drag a .pkg icon onto the Pacifist window .....proceed to step 7.
B. Click on “Open Package ....” and navigate to package desired and click “Open” in the open/save window.....proceed to step 7.
C. Insert Mac OS X installer CD and when it mounts, navigate to .... Menu->Go->Go to Folder.
In the path field enter or paste ....
/Volumes/disc name/System/Installation/Packages (where disc name is the name of the CD/DVD that you inserted.
• Click on the "Go" button .....
• Drag a .pkg to Pacifist..... proceed to step 7.
The package you'll need will have to be discovered by trial and error, but for most applications you should start with the Essentials.pkg and/or Additional Essentials.pkg.
D. Insert your Mac OS X install disk 1 .... and open Pacifist.
1. In Pacifist, select "Open Mac OS X Install Packages" ... dialog may appear asking for disk 2, then disk 3 and finally disk 1 again.... {if DVD is not used)...If “Stop Loading” is selected...the procedure will stop!!!
2a. When loading is complete, a new window appears, click the triangle to display contents of each package...Select item and proceed to step 7.
2b. or click the “Find” icon in the Pacifist window and type the name of the software you need.
3. In the list that comes back, click the top most entry for the item that you want. ..... that is the one for the English language.
4. On the top of the Pacifist window, click “verify” .... you will probably be prompted for your password.
5. Enter checks for.... “verify permissions” and “verify file contents.” and click “verify” ....enter password when prompted.... you will get back output which may look like this:
20 files were scanned.
20 of 20 files were present on the hard disk.
0 of 20 files had file permissions that did not match those specified in the package.
0 of 20 files had checksums that did not match those specified in the package.
6. Click “close”. Go to step 7.
Extract or Install........
7. In the Toolbar (upper left), you now have the option to extract or install. Click a file in the lower list and those two icons will be enabled.
8. If “Extract to...” is selected.... navigate to the location where the file will be placed, select “choose”, select “extract” in new dialog that appears,authenicate , if prompted, click “OK”.
9. In the next dialog, click “Extract”.
10. If “Install” is selected... dialog will appear with the location/path of the installed software. Click “Install”
11. Type in your password, click “OK”
• Pacifist will begin to extract files.
12. In steps 8/10ß.... you also have the choice to “cancel”
Notes.....
• Pacifist may find that a file it is installing already exists on the hard disk. Pacifist will present you with an alert panel....
Stop
Leave original alone
Update ..... Default selection
Replace .... Replace option should only be used on full install packages

Lost photo booth library

hello everybody
i had a little problem when going from tiger to leopard...
i made all my back-ups, but here is what happened with photo booth:
the files are on the right folder, all my 160 photos, but photo booth won't recognize them!
i tried to find something related to this, but found nothing
hope you can help me!
thanks a lot

-When the iLife install has completed select software update before importing.
-When iPhoto asks if you want it to open when a camera is detected select "decide later"
-Use iPhoto's import to library function from the file menu to add the folder, do not drop any pictures directly into iPhoto.
-Hold the command key when you click the folder for import.

Can't locate Photo Booth picture on MacBook Air

I used Photo Booth to take a picture of myself when I first bought my MacBook Air.
Somehow--I don't remember doing this (but I may have), the photo then became part of my login screen whenever it appears.
I now want to remove that photo, but I can't seem to find it anywhere on my computer. Help?

I have the same issue. Was working fine until Saturday when Rogers reset my modem because we lost our internet connection. Our modem is direct connected to our PC and we connec with the Macbook through wifi.
When the modem rebooted we got an IP error and they had to do a renew and release. Since then - no wifi on macbook.
every time we try to join our home network it gives a password wrong error. The password is not wrong. Airport is a solid yellow light. Ethernet is red.
I am not great with macs and I have scoured the net and I cannot figure this out

Photo booth again fails after Update of System

A few months ago I found my Photo Booth stopped showing a camera picture after I upgraded with a System Update but then cured the problem after a simple Reboot.
Well the photo booth has again failed to operate following a recent Update of the OS and all I get is a blank screen. This time it won't kick start after a re boot. Is there any way to find out why it won't switch on its internal camera and cure it for good.
The saved snapshots will show in the photo booth but it's simply the "live" picture that won't work.
There is plenty of daylight in the room so it shouldn't be just a black screen should it?
Thanks
Plado

I think I can pull this question off now. The system has wrong-footed me again.
It seems to be that when you have too many computers all calling upon the same wireless broadband connection in the one building, the DNS or something gets choked.
I switched off the router the modem the wireless and the main desktop pc
I then rebooted them all. After it was all up and running I turned on the MacBook and connected via the usual AirPort and both Google Earth and PhotoBooth were running as sweet as a nut.
It seems all too easy to think the Macbook has got itself in a twist when in fact it's just responding to a tired and emotional broadband connection that has lost its bandwidth due to over crowded usage.
I'll close this question now.
Sorry to alert anyone.
Plado
