Photo Booth is not saving pictures in the folder

Hey,
I am facing some issues with my Photo Booth! I am able to take pictures and they drop down to the bottom of the photo booth window, but when i check the folder in ‘'pictures'' its always empty. Before the pictures which were taken got automatically saved in the folder, now nothing happens.
I hope someone can help me out.
Sofia

Hello sofia62,
After reviewing your post, it sounds like you want to have the pictures taken in PhotoBooth to show up in Pictures. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
This article says 4.x but these step still work to export in version 7.
Photo Booth 4.x: Export a Photo Booth snapshot or video clip
Click the thumbnail and choose File > Export, or Control-click the thumbnail and choose Export.Specify a filename, select a location for the file, and click Save.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a nice day,
Mario

Hi both of you,
Have you tried Repairing Permissions ?

Do it from the Hard drive rather than the Install disk.
This will read the RECEIPTS folder for the most up-to-date info.

I recently upgraded my mac desktop to oxs 10.9.2 and when I open my i photo library there are no pictures. The message is "Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade.Scared to hit upgrade!!!

I recently upgraded my mac desktop to oxs 10.9.2 and when I opened i photo, it says the photo livrary needs to be upgraded to work with this version of I photo. Where are my pictures? The message is "Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of Iphoto after the upgrade. The upgrade process for very large libraries may take an hour or more to complete". I'm scared to upgrade!! Does this mean my photos can't be read once I upgrade? Where are my pictures?

First have you backed up your computer, if you have and your iPhoto library is in the back up you have nothing to be concerned about. If you are not using at least Time Machine to back up your system then you should be concerned because well frankly that is simply bad computing practice and you risking all of your data.
As for the message you received all that means is your system was using an earlier version of iPhoto with the version of OS X you previously had installed and now that you have updated to 10.9.2 (Mavericks) your version of iPhoto has also upgraded and needs to get ready to import all of your pictures. If you have backup then you should be confident the upgrade will go through smoothly, Apple generally has very good instructions and will not give bad advice, second guessing them may be cautious but is generally unnecessary.

Photo Booth is not detecting iSight

In the last couple days, whenever I have opened Photo Booth to take a picture, it doesn't automatically turn on my iSight camera. however, the camera works fine in iChat. When I click on the "Camera" menu when Photo Booth is open, it has the Built in iSight camera selected, but the green light does not turn on and I only have a black screen and can't take a picture.
help??

Photo booth is not opening after installing maverick

I updated my computer to Maverick and now photo booth is not opening. I could care less about the application itself but there are pictures that I really do not want to lose. It says that "You can't use this version of the application "Photo Booth" with this version of OS X. You have "Photo Booth" 3.0.3." I can't find any information on updating the application and I can't find any way to recover the pictures from the application. Please help.

You're trying to open an outdated copy of the application. Delete the copy and use the one in the Applications folder. Never move or copy built-in applications.

Photo Booth suddenly not supported by Graphics Card

Hi all,
I've got a serious problem and need it to be rectified as soon as possible.
Ok, here's the story - I've had my MacBook Pro since 2006, Photo Booth has worked like a breeze. In 2007, I installed Mac OS Leopard and Photo Booth still worked like a breeze.
Just last week, I installed Adobe Illustrator CS3 & Adobe Photoshop CS3.
Today, I open up Photo Booth to take some pictures for an assignment and I get an error message that says:
"Photo Booth cannot open
The graphics card installed in this computer does not support Photo Booth."
One thing that confuses me is that iChat and Skype still work fine using the iSight built in, it's just Photo Booth that refuses to open.
I don't understand, Photo Booth has worked perfectly fine for the last 2 years and now suddenly my graphics card installed doesn't support Photo Booth. Please, I need any help I can get to rectify this problem, it's never happened to me before so I'm quite worried about it.
The reason why I need this issue to be fixed as soon as possible is because I need the PhotoBooth effects for one of my assignments in Photography. Please help me, I need this to be fixed urgently. All help given will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Try using PhotoBooth in another user account--create a new one if necessary. Does it open?
Also repair disk permissions using your Install Disc 1 DVD. To do this:
1) Insert the DVD and restart your computer while holding down the C key.
2) Once the Installer has loaded, hit the enter/return key to move past the Language window.
3) Move your mouse to the top of the screen--some menus should be there. Click Utilities and choose *Disk Utility*.
4) In the left-hand column, click your hard drive's icon. (xx.x GB Fujitsu, for example) If you have Windows installed through Boot Camp, choose the "Macintosh HD" icon.
5) Click the *Repair Permissions* button. This may take more than a few minutes to complete--be patient.
6) If anything CAN'T be repaired, make a note of it and post it here. When the repair finishes, restart the computer.

Isight works with photo booth but not in ichat or google talk or skype?

isight works with photo booth but not in ichat or google talk or skype?

Hi
Is this an Internal or External iSight ?
In iChat, in the Video Menu (This is to the right of Buddies and may read Audio) is Camera Enabled Ticked ?
If it reads Audio open the Connection Doctor from that same menu.
In the connection Doctor open the Capabilities tab
Does it say your Internet Connection is too slow ?
At this point I would need to know which iChat Version.
However also look in the View Menu.
Is Show VIdeo Status ticked ? (this shows green Icons next to your Buddy Pic and those of your Buddies
Next go to the iChat Menu > Preferences > Video Section
Do you see a preview here ?
Re: GoogleTalk
Have you enabled TALK on your Google Account Settings ?
You need to have a Google Mail ID (Not any other sort of Google ID)
Have you downloaded the Intel only Web Browser Plug-in to do Video in a Web Browser.

Mail, preview, photo booth, will not open

After installing Leopard (on my 3rd attempt, clean install) mail, preview, and photo booth will not open at all. i'm opening them from the applications folder, not from the dock. i get an error message that says the programs unexpectedly quit. hopefully i don't have to do another installation. 3 is enough.
i thought it was interesting that these 3 programs are in order alphabetically, and every other program has opened fine.
any help/ideas would be great

Welcome to Apple Discussions:
You might check whether this is a preference corruption issue. For example, you can find the Mail preference file in [Username]/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
Drag this file to your desktop (so you don't lose it). Then try relaunching Mail. If that works, a similar process might fix your problem with the other applications, too.
Please post back here if that helps. If it does, please mark this posting as having "Solved" your question. Thanks

Photo booth camera not conected

I keep getting "camera disconected " in photo booth i leave the computer in sleep mode most of the time.I have to restart, for the camera to work again then it disconects itself when photo booth has not been used for a while ?

Any other camera applications such as iChat open? I think the camera is attached to the USB bus, do you have any non-Apple devices connected to the USB bus that may not like the power drain of Energy Saver after it turns on (i.e. the machine goes to sleep)? This can cause cascading issues down the whole USB bus.

Photo booth can not be run

Hi all !
Everything was working perfectly and since my last update, photo booth doesn't want to start :
The error message is as follow :
"Photobooth ne peut pas s'ouvrir
La carte graphique installée dans cet ordinateur ne prend pas en charge Photo Booth."
Translated :
"Photo booth can not be run :
The graphics card installed in this computer does not work with Photo Booth."
I tested other apps and it works fine
Need help !
Thanks a lot !

Hi,
I think I'm having the same problems as the OP. When I click on Photo Booth to open, I get an error message that says:
"Photo Booth cannot open
The graphics card installed in this computer does not support Photo Booth."
The built-in iSight camera appears to be working fine with iChat and Skype, it just refuses to work with Photo Booth, it's worked perfectly for the last 2 years, I don't understand why it's doing this now.
Could you please provide me with a step by step guide on how to fix this problem.
Thanks!
Any help is much appreciated.

Photo Booth will not open. My camera works well with other apps.

Photo Booth will not open. My camera works well with other apps.

try running it in either 32 or 64bit mode and see if this changes the experience. Locate the icon in Finder, right click "get-info" on it and see the checkmarks "run in 32bit mode" ..
on Lion some users had trouble opeining pb when "iglasses" was installed, also a thing to check.
Else repair permissions of the disk, using Apples disk utility app.

Not those whole folders, but their contents, maybe.
If the user account now on the Mac has read rights to the user account(s) on the backups, yes. If not, you may have to do some finagling.
Try the Browse Other Backup Disks option, per Time Machine - Frequently Asked Question #17. If you find an account that can open those folders, restore what you want to an alternate location (#16 in the FAQ).
If not try creating one or more accounts temporarily.

Using iPhoto 09, 8.1.2 How do I re-route saving pictures to the hard drive? Currently am saving to files on 'my' partition, and would like to change to save to a shared file so both partitions can view and access.

Drag the Library from the Pictures folder to the Users/Shared folder. I would point out that folks doing this on 10.6 and later frequently meet permissions issues. You might do better moving it to an appropriately formatted External Disk.
