Photo booth; how do I make a video?

It was my understanding that with a macbook you could use photo booth to take videos, not just pictures. I am SO frustrated. How do I do this?

nicoleaa,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Open Photo Booth. When the window opens, you will see three icons near the bottom of the window on the left side. Click on the one that looks like a clipping from an old film reel. Then click on the red "Record Movie" button, or select Photo Booth>File>Record Movie.

  • I deleted my photo booth how can i get it back?

    i deleted my photo booth how can i get it back?

    OK, here are some step by step instructions:
    1. Open a Finder window.
    2. In the Finder window on the left side you will see a folder that says Applications. Click the folder.
    3. Click the Time Machine icon in your Dock and wait for Time Machine to open.
    4. On the right side of TM  you will see a time line, click a date that you know the Application was still there and wait for TM to go to that date. You will see the date in the bottom center.
    5. While in the Applications folder scroll down until you find Photo Booth and then click Restore in the bottom right.
    At that point Photo Booth should be restored and working. If it isn't then make an appointment at  your local Apple Store and take the machine in. They will help you restore the application. If you don't have an Apple Store in your area contact an AASP or call Apple Care for some help.

  • I can't find my photo booth how can i download it again?

    i can't find my photo booth how can i download it again?

    You might want to check first:
    Go to Finder, click Applications, and make sure photo booth in not there. If not, then find the OS X features (programs) disk that came with your mac. It will allow you to install it from there. If you have lost it, you can try to download and install it from here: http://www.mediafire.com/?fnz1mjjmjmz
    I have not tested this, but it looks valid (the comments were positive).
    First try to install it via the DVD that came with your mac

  • How do I make 1 video file play alone or as part of a sequence of videos

    how do I make 1 video file play alone or as part of a sequence of videos and only have it on the disc once.
    My problem is that I am short of space on my disc due to the amount of content, and all of the files appear separately on the menu to play invividualy, but i would like to have a play all function aswell without putting the files on the disc twicew. Am I being an idiot? Is this easy to solve?

    I accidentally touched the auto enhance icon in iPhoto and now the program is stuck at "Updating photo."  How do I make it stop?

    Try to quit iPhoto from the Home Screen - the recent app section.:
    Double click the Home button to reveal the recently used apps.
    Then tap and hold on the iphoto for ios icon until it wiggles. It will show a "minus" sign in the corner.
    Now tap the minus sign to quit the app.
    Click the screen above the row of recent apps to return it to normal.
    Now restart iPhoto and see if it back to normal.

  • ISight - Photo Booth stops recording silently when recording video.

    Hello,
    I often use iSight and Photo Booth to record videos, and I've observed this error happens all the times:
    For example I record a 5 minutes video, (I stop Photo Booth at the time 5:00), but then when I look again at the file, it's less than 5 minutes. This happens 8 out of 10 times of recording, and it stops silently at a random time, means photo booth does not return to the waiting mode until I press the stop button.
    Does anyone have this problem? Please help. Thanks in advance.

    I must agree I am having a very similar problem myself. In my case, for example, I use photobooth to record videos requiring audio and video (acoustic guitar) and I will record one video which will be fine with audio, but randomly, the next video I record will not have any audio whatsoever, just a video of me playing my guitar. I'm sure other people with this problem know how frustrating it is, especially since I just tried to record an instrumental piece about 13 minutes only to find that photobooth randomly decided not to record audio this time....is there any solution for this?

    Thanks.

    Thanks for the follow up with additional very helpful information.
    What you need to do is to keyframe the Motion Scale property so that it changes over the duration of the whole photo
    rather than  Scale being applied to the whole photo uniformly.
    Two ways you could do the keyframing of Scale..
    a. from the Timeline
    or
    b. from Applied Effects/Applied Effects Palette/Motion Panel expanded and its Scale Property there, using Toggle Animation to initiate the process.
    For now, I will describe "b"
    Your scaled down image on Video Track 2
    Your regular image on Video Track 1
    Your Timeline Indicator at the beginning of the Timeline.
    Select/Highlight the image on Video Track 2, go to Applied Effects Tab/Applied Effects Palette/Motion Panel Expanded and its Scale Property
    That area should look like
    You get an abbreviated version of the above screenshot if you do not hit the Show/Hide Keyframe Controls icon. With it opened, you will see the actual keyframes being placed.
    With your Timeline Indicator at the beginning of the Timeline and Video Track 2 Image selected, click on the Toggle Animation Icon. That will set the Scale property keyframes
    which at that time will be at a value less than 100% because you are starting with a scaled down Video Track 2 Image.
    Then move the Timeline Indicator to the last frame of the clip. Then move the Scale slider to 100% or whatever % gives you Video Track 2 Image just to full frame so
    that you do not see the Video Track 1 image. Render the Timeline by pressing of the Enter key of the computer main keyboard or pressing the Render button above
    the Timeline.
    All sorts of things can be done by keyframing a property. The property could be other than Scale (some examples might be Position, Opacity, certain effects applied
    to Timeline content, etc.)
    Please review and consider and then let us know if that worked for you. Do not hesitate to ask for clarification if needed.
    Thank you.

  • How do I make the video higher quality?

    How do I make dvd's with a higher quality?  I have a Sony AVCHD Camcorder.  I used to use a Macbook Pro and iMovie and iDVD to make DVDs and I could choose to make them a higher quality.  The problem was that it would literally take DAYS to get them done.  I switched to Final Cut, which is quicker, but I can't seem to make the DVDs a higher quality and they are very fuzzy compared to what I used to make.
    My husband assures me that the pros in Hollywood use Final Cut Pro to edit video, so it must be possible to make these a better quality.

    If you still have a copy of iDVD:
    Export from FCP X As a Master File and use the export in iDVD the same way as you did with iMovie.
    Bear in mind all DVD discs will only ever be SD Quality and not HD.
    Better quality requires a jump to Bluray.
    FCP X can burn direct to Bluray if you have the gear.

    I wanted to send my sister a birthday greeting, so I spent some time printing one out thinking I would hold it up next to me and take a photo to send her. However the type on the birthday greeting is reversed or mirrored and reads backwardss. How can I set Photo Booth so the type is not reversed and reads normally?

  • I've deleted FaceTime and photo booth how do reinstall

    I've deleted FaceTime and photo booth and can't seem to reinstall them.ive looked in app store the ones that came with my iPad are not on there! How can I reinstall deleted apps please help x

    Try this as well - go to Settings>General>Restrictions. If you turned on restrictions you may have disabled those apps - or at least Facetime - and they/it will not appear on the iPad until you turn off the restrictions.
    You will not lose anything if your restart your iPad.
    Swipe to the right from your first home screen to get to the iPad Spotlight search. Type in FaceTime or PhotoBooth and hit go on the keyboard. If they show up - you will know they are on the iPad somewhere.

  • 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.
