Photo booth missing?

Last week, my hard drive crashed on my MacBook. Today, I had the Apple store replace it with a new hard drive. They installed OS X 10.4 (which is what I had before) but for some reason, I can't find Photo Booth under applications.
Is there a way to re-install it using my OSX disks, or do I need to go back to the Apple store and have them fix it?

I think you'd have better luck starting a New Topic here to get he most helpers in on it.
It's quite acceptable, even preferable to start a new topic of your own, it will get more individualized attention, and many more helpers!

  • Photo Booth: missing "live video" button?

    I was trying to use the iSight camera in my iMac with Photo Booth (v. 1.2) to snap a portrait of myself and I ran into a curious problem. After snapping a few shots and clicking on the thumbnails at the bottom of the window, I tried to return to live video to set up another shot and was unable to do so. The help file tells me to "click the Live Video button below the image." Problem is, the only button below the image, other than the app links, is the shutter button. Clicking this snaps another picture, with no opportunity to set up in live video mode. I had to close and re-start Photo Booth to get live video again. Am I missing something obvious here?

    Hi,
    Manually click through the following folders
    Home/Library/Preferences. Delete the com.apple.PhotoBooth.plist and restart Photo Booth.
    This should return all the icons to the Tool Bar.

  • Photo Booth missing effects

    I can't find any video backdrop effects. I have 2 paged of distortion effects only. does anyone know what to do?

    Do you have an Intel Mac? The additional effects are NOT available on Power PC macs, only on Intel Macs

  • Missing Photo Booth Effects

    For some reason, I only have two pages of effects in my Photo Booth application. There are no backdrop effects, either prefab or blank frames where I can create my own. I've got version 2.0.3, so I don't think I've missed an upgrade anywhere.
    Can anyone help me figure this out? My big fear is that since my iMac is one of the pre-Intel chip machines, I'm out of luck. Hoping this isn't the case, though.

    Rats. That certainly limits my options.
    Can you explain the graphics card to a non-techie? Is this something I can add to my existing platform? Will I need to take my machine in to a store? Can I do it myself? Is it expensive?

  • Photo Booth app still missing after restore!

    I have an IPad and the Photo Booth app is missing completely. It's not in spotlight, nothing is restricted and even tried a full restore and still nothing...... Any assistance would be great!

    I do have a camera on the front, so what accesses that function? I thought that's where photo bohoth would come into play? Also is FaceTime only on the 2nd gen as well, because that app is not appearing?

  • Photo Booth files automatically appearing in iPhoto also missing??

    The missing effects in Photo Booth have been well documented elsewhere (ie R2D2 hologram) but the ability for Photo Booth files to automatically appear in iPhoto also seems to be missing?! Or am I just being stupid?
    I googled it, and found a link that said
    “In Leopard, Photo Booth files automatically appear in your iPhoto library”
    but the page it took me to no longer existed.
    Another incredibly useful function that was pulled before it shipped??
    Can anyone shed any light?

    Anyone have any ideas about this? Do you think it will show up in 10.5.2?

  • My Photos missing recently added album, and Photo Booth's irritating

    Air 2 8.1.2. Just noticed that the 'recently added' album is missing from My Photos. I've restarted my iPad, but it ain't come back, to the best of my recollection, I've not hidden anything (didn't think those albums could be hidden, anyway). I've 'recently deleted', 'panoramas', 'favourites', and a couple I've created, but that's it. can anyone hazard a guess as to where it's done a runner to, and how I can apprehend it and put it back where it belongs…?
    Secondly, how do I hide the 'photo strip' which runs along the bottom of the screen, just above the toolbar, in Photo Booth…? I don't use it all that often, but I'm certain the last time I did, the teken pics 'slipped' into a kind of invisible 'packet' at the bottom-right of the screen, just like they do when you're using the normal camera. im 99% certain I've not toggled a 'show/hide photo strip' setting anywhere, because there don't appear to BE any settings in PB. I'd really rather have it back the way it was, because having that strip there obscures too much of the screen.
    Cheers, mateys!

    It sent - HTF did that happen…?! It's also only listing my old Touch which I no longer own. Y'see, this is the main reason I don't don't fora, they confuse the feck outta me, that and they have people in 'em; actual hominids of the species Homo sapiens sapiens with whom I'm forced to interact.
    Sorry, about that  I'm sure you can fathom out what the header's supposed to read. Why in the name of all that is sentient, won't Apple allow edits…?!  Now it's made me reply to me own post, and I'm thought of as crazy enough round these parts!
    You'll get your just desserts, Apple, one day it'lol all go pear-shaped and your empire will crumble…
    You'll be pleased to know I'm now out of puns de pomme.

  • HT5043 My daughter was taking pictures in photo booth and now all of our photos from the iphoto library appear to be missing.  Any ideas how to recover them?

    Does anyone know how to recover or view pictures after importing photos from photo booth?  My daughter said that she was asked if she wanted to start a "new card".  Is this term familiar to anyone.  So sad to lose all our photos....

    Sorry - what exactly was done? iPhoto and PhotoBooth have no relation to each other -
    If she deleted the iPhoto libreary in error then take it out of the trash and put it back in the pictures folder - if the trash has been emptied then restore your backup of the iPhoto lbiarary - that is what backups are for - to protect against mistakes and failures

  • Photo booth-effects missing

    I no longer have an effects choice with my photo booth. I used to. I suspect my 3-year-old somehow deleted it. How can I get it back?

  • Photo Booth Effect Missing

    Hi, the Pop Art effect in my Photo Booth doesn't show as it should.
    Instead of being the screen divided in four different quarters with different colours, there is just one quarter and the rest is plain yellow
    should I reinstall it?

    Did you guys have the same problem with software update after installing this app? I took me a while to work out what the Russian installer put to confuse my Mac. Anyway, to delete the file, you need to access the Terminal application. It is in the Utilities folder which is within the Applications folder. The Terminal application allows you to directly access the file system of Mac OS X via Unix commands.
    Once you are in terminal, type "cd /private/var/db/" (without the quotation marks)
    That will put you into the correct directory where the offending file is. The file is a dot file (ie ".AppleTier3Language") so you can't see it in the directory (even if you type "ls" (list directory)).
    Now type "rm /private/var/db/.AppleTier3Language"
    That should delete the file. If it doesn't allow you, check that you have administrator priviliges from the System Preferences. You may also need the Root superuser account activated as well. If you have problems, post back to this thread.
    I hope this helps.

  • HT201272 My camera, photo booth and face time have gone missing

    Suddenly my camera, FaceTime and photo booth have disappeared from my iPad.  Also is there a way to upgrade an operating system on my iPad.?

    If you can't find them on any of your homescreens or app folders (and it's not a first-gen iPad which doesn't have those apps), and you can't find them via the spotlight search screen (swipe your first home screen to the right), then are they hidden by Settings > General > Restrictions > Camera being set 'off' ?
    If not then have you tried a reset to see if you can find it after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    To update the iOS version, connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases. You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
    Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button
    Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
    A first gen iPad should update to iOS 5.1.1 (it doesn't support iOS 6) and an iPad 2 (and 3) to 6.0.1 (which are the only versions that are 'signed' by Apple) - updating an iPad 2 or 3 to you will remove the built-in YouTube app and the Maps app will change.

  • How to recover missing videos from Photo Booth?

  • Photo Booth sound missing?

    I've noticed that sometimes sound does not record in Photo Booth, despite hearing my voice speaking while recording a movie. This seems to happen randomly. Is there anything I can do to insure it with record sound all the time?
    Recording 7 mins then finding no sound is very frustrating, especially trying to recreate it...

    yes, I made sure that was correct.
    I think the problem may be caused by a conflict with iMovie or another app. It seems when I record with only Photo Booth open, it does not happen. More experimentation is needed.

  • Photo Booth~ Black Screen, Faulty/Broken/Missing Effects

    Hi
    Photo Booth was working fine when first use with new computer.
    Now, when opened the [internal] iSight camera switches on (little green light) and the main image screen is black. Any photos that are taken appear as black. When selecting Effects Button 1, the effects display, but not correctly - they all use 25% of the space they are supposed to use and in Effects Button 2 - no effects show whatsoever.
    I have tried deleting the plist. It is a system wide problem - all users have same difficulty.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Leopard: Photo Booth User Effects Page (Page 4) Missing/Black

    I dropped a movie on page 4 to use as a background and Photo Booth crashed. When I restarted the 4th page of effects is just a single black square. I cant add anything to it. If I log into another user account on the same machine the 4th page is correct. Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Only just got round to installing Leopard, but I now have an answer for you:
    Right-click on PhotoBooth in your Applications folder, and select Show Package Contents
    Open the Contents folder, then open Resources
    Find the EffectsOrdering.plist file, and open it in Text Edit (right click, Open With, select Other, and locate Text Edit -- you may need to change "Enable" to "All Applications")
    Scroll down to the bottom of the file -- you should see a list of user backdrops; return the offending item to its default value (e.g. /user backdrop 1), save thew file, start PhotoBooth, and you should be back to normal.
