  • Photo booth video recording not working

    I was recording a video with photo booth and while it was recording it was showing that the record button was on and that it was recording. But when i went to view it had only recorded 30 seconds of it. I didnt change the screen or touch the computer. Someone help please.
    oh and right before it had been working fine...

    HI,
    Try deleting this file.
    com.apple.PhotoBooth.plist
    ~/Library/Preferences.
    Move that fileo to the Trash and restart your Mac.
    If you need help navigating and locating .plist files, go here.

  • Unable to share pictures with Photo Booth Facebook option not working.

    So when I try to share pictures by clicking on the Facebook option on Photo Booth, nothing happens. I tried every other option and they all work except for the Facebook one.
    I tried to quit every other application and just leave Photo Booth opened, same result.
    I deleted the plist file for Facebook...

    It appears LR is not getting access to the Drive/Folder where the original file is located. (/volumes/Media Disk/Pictures....)? were the original files copied to a hard drive?

  • IChat, Photo Booth, FaceTime camera not working

    Upgraded to Lion, waited for the update.01.  Camera is not working in any program.  Tryed the SMU reset with no effect.

    Hi,
    You list two machines in your specs that are not Intel Macs and do not list a computer that can run Lion.
    Does the camera appear in System Profiler (Hardware > USB) ?
    Is Blue Tooth On ?
    Any other potential USB internally connected item that may be drawing too much power ?
    Any External USB device that is Unpowered ?
    Try the equivilant of the Firewire Port reset.
    Unplug all external devices.
    Power down for 15 minutes using Shut Down  (Unplug Power as well if Laptop)
    Start up with no external devices.
    Try Camera (App).
    Start adding back external devices.

  • The new photo booth effects are not working (dizzy and those)

    Pretty please help . It is pretty much the first screen of effects

    "Is there something wrong with my built-in iSight on my MacBook Pro? "
    Nope!
    Use as plain a real background behind you as you can. The busier the background, the harder it is for your Mac to tell you from the background.
    Have as much light behind you and in front of you as possible. I found that lighting is a huge key to making the effect work well. If possible use hologen lights. The brighter your room, the better BE works. Matter of fact, your BE picture will be perfect.
    DO NOT wear the colors green and/or blue.
    Good luck & much fun!

  • Photo Booth Backdrop Effects Not Working Properly

    Special Effects and Distortion Effects work but Backdrop Effects (Clouds, Color Dots, Earthrise, Eiffel Tower, Fish, Rollercoaster, Sunset, Yosemite)
    doesn't. It would ask me to step out of the frame and I do, then I get Background Detected and I step in the frame but here's the problem. The backdrop doesn't show correctly. Say I choose 'Eiffel Tower' I can't see the whole backdrop just some of it because my actual background (wall) interferes, in other words I can see both my wall and the backdrop. How can I fix this?

    I'm not sure I understand what you mean

  • Photo streaming screen saver not working after ATV update

    I was using a shared photo streaming album as a screen saver prior to the update. Now, with all options on, it only shows one generic "photo stream" option with zero photos in the file. I have a total of five photo stream ablbus that used to appear as choices.
    Any ideas?

    Thanks to Apple Care, problem solved. I'm one of those people that have two user names and passwords with Apple. When Mobile Me closed, my ICloud username became the old Mobile Me username. I also have my ITunes username and password.
      So, to load content from ITunes, I have to be logged in as that user, but to access my Photo Stream, I have to be logged in as my ICloud user.  

  • HT1766 I cannot open my phone as the screen will not work. I have made an appointment with a technician tomorrow but is there anyway of backing my phone up to Icloud so that I do not lose any of photos etc etc?

    I cannot open my phone as the screen will not work. I have made an appointment with a technician tomorrow but is there anyway of backing my phone up to Icloud so that I do not lose any of photos etc etc?

    PLug it into yrou computer to sync/back it up.
    Is it set to back up to iCloud now?
    Or do you have wifi backup enabled in iTunes?
    Plug it in while on wifi and it will automatically back up.

  • Photo Booth's Camera ONLY Works When All Apps Quit?

    Hello all.
    I was trying to take a picture with Photo Booth but the camera "was dead", i.e. not active/turn on
    - Safari, Mail, MSN Messenger, EyeTV and FeedTicker were on
    I have to quit all other apps, relaunch Photo Booth to get it working.
    Is any one of them interfering with the camera function? (perhaps MSN Messenger?)
    Thanks and cheers

    Here's a long shot: Sometimes camera weirdness can be fixed by resetting the PRAM.

  • Photo Booth Help! My photo booth screen is very very dark. I thought it was the screen but its at the brightest it can possibly be! So I grabbed my mothers MacBook Pro and It's much lighter and more clear. I have just the regular macbook. Please Help.

    My photo booth screen is very very dark. I thought it was the screen but its at the brightest it can possibly be! So I grabbed my mothers MacBook Pro and It's much lighter and more clear. I have just the regular macbook. I also used the my camera on tumblr and it came up like my mothers. So could it just be photo booth? I also have no idea how to find out which operating system is downloaded. This is preowned.

    Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

  • My USB port (closest to the screen) is not working? And what is an IR Receiver in my USB port?

    Hi everyone,
         I recently found out that my USB port, closest to my screen, is not working. Before I called Apple Care for help, I performed a PRAM and a SMC RESET, which unfortunately did not work. I called Apple Care and they help me troubleshoot simple resets such as, shutdowns and restarts. The representative I spoke with conluded that the physical hardware has an issue and must be brought to the Apple Store for a diagnosis. I called the Apple Store to at least budget the fee for getting a USB port fixed and it's about $300.00. I never dropped my macbook or had any sort tactile encounterment with hard surfaces by dropping or hitting. I don't understand how my macbook pro would be physically damaged. I then thought maybe my software was out of date (right now I am running 10.9 Mavericks) or I forgot to do the minor software updates, but I was at a lost again because my macbook is up-to-date. I searched for further help and found a way to monitor what's plugged into my usb ports. (I read in the apple forums that a girl had nothing in her usb ports, but upon looking at the System Information> Hardware> USB, that the macbook recognizes that there are drives in the ports) I looked at my ports; one is being used by wirless mouse (the port that works) and the other (the port that doesnt work) is being used by an "IR RECEIVER". Now, is the IR Receiver actually using that port and that's why my macbook cannot recognize other devices inserted into that port? Or is the IR RECEIVER suppose to be in that port and that the hardware for that port is simply damaged (which would mean I need $300.00 to get that fixed)? I know this is a lot, but someone help me?

    I can help with the "IR Receiver" part of your question. That's the piece of hardware inside older MacBook Pros (MBPs) that lets them work with the Apple Remote. "IR" is the standard abbreviation for "infrared," the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum used by remotes for many common devices (stereos, cable boxes, Apple TVs, etc.). The remote sends a coded stream of IR pulses; a corresponding receiver in the target device "sees" the infrared light and decodes it. The MBP's internal IR Receiver sends the received signals to the processor via USB through an internal hub.
    The most recent MacBook Pros have dropped the IR receiver and no longer work with the Apple Remote.

    Yes. They'll still replace your iPod. Several users have indicated that they have returned damaged iPods and were still given a replacement iPod.

    You could follow the instructions in the support document that you linked from. There is a section regarding the passcode and the inability to use it or enter it. However, you may encounter more issues since you cannot use the screen.

  • I have an ipod touch 3rd generation and the whole touch screen is not working.

    I have a 32gb ipod which I bought for fifty dollars and when i bought it had a pretty baddly cracked screen but thing is it worked fine. Every part of the screen worked fine; it was as senstive where the screen was cracked as the areas of the screen that were not cracked. I dropped it a couple times from like two or three feet on two a hard wood floor about four times all it did was make the cracks on the screen a little worse. Then one day I dropped it from about a foot and now the whole touch screen is not working does anyone know why this is. They told me at the ipod store to get a new one would be 130 to trade mine in. But the thing is I very mechanically inclined and I am very good with electrionics; I was planing on buying the glass for fifty bucks and putting it on myself because I read how to do it and I am more then capapble of doing it. But now since the touch screen is now working; do I need a new screen along with a new glass? See the thing is because I think both those part cost 120 together. Which would not be worth me doing that when I can go to the ipod store and they would trade me a new one for 130 bucks. But the issue is, they told me at the ipod store they would have to look and see how damaged the ipod is to see if they will exchange it. My screen is severly cracked; also I have a dent that is a half inch long and 1/8th inch deep in the back of my ipod and its very scracthed up; do you thing an ipod store would exchange it in the condition it is in. Also has anybody had this problem before and I was wondering if it would be possible for me to take it apart and fix it my self without buying any new parts.

    If I were you, I would pay the $130 for a replacement. Then you can be sure that it has all the working parts it needs.
