Photobooth Mac OS X
I'm having a problem getting my photo booth to open. Every time I click it I get a pop up saying "You can't use this version of the application Photo Booth with this version of Mac OS X. You have Photo Booth 2.0.3" My Mac OS X is version 10.6.4.
Well thats just dandy, how do I download a new photo booth? It happened sometime after I downloaded the new iLife (a while ago... I'm just now getting around to fixing it...). I'd like to finally be able to use my Photo Booth again.
Thank you

Easiest way is to insert your Snow Leopard Install DVD and reinstall OS X. The correct Photo Booth will be installed as part of the default reinstall.
As soon as the Mac restarts, download and apply the 10.6.4 Combo Update to return to the latest version in one update step:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1048
Immediately following the restart that completes the Combo Update, use your Mac's Disk Utility to repair permissions.
You can now launch Photo Booth and use the Photo Booth > About Photo Booth menu command to verify that you have the correct (3.0.2) version.

I recently upgrade to Lion a couple of months. I opened my photobooth application and it was very laggy and slow. Hopefully someone can help me with this problem.

But my big question here is: why isn't this product treated like a seperate product, with it's own forum? or docs on setup? All I can find in how to install/migrate Lion server, but nothing specific to the stuff in the box (preconfigured lion server, two drives, etc.) So do I just try and use the installing Lion Server docs and try and figure out where to jump in?
Also, is there a site where I can go to get answers about the setup itself... I have the PeachPit Apple Pro book, but again, it's really dense. I don't want to be certified, I just want to set up a webserver, learn about Active Directory, set up workgroup access for a small team, set up a media and mail server. That's it
There is in fact a forum for Lion Server Right here:
https://discussions.apple.com/community/servers_enterprise_software/mac_os_x_lio n_server
Just needed to scroll down further on the community list.
And going here:
http://www.apple.com/support/lionserver/
is the Lion Server support site.
This forum is for general Mac Mini hardware issues and the
above are for Lion Server issues. There is no need for
two seperate forums as they already exist.
As for the iMovie issue and MAS, that is the way Apple decided to
move since it is purchasable/upgradable software. -
How do i move my photobooth photos from my old mac to my new mac with lion os
have tons of photos in my older version of photobooth, how do i migrate them to new mac with lion os. looked everywhere but can't find an answer.
It's actually very simple. In your old AB under the file menu click "Export Address Book Archive to your desktop. Then using the new system log in to the old via network and move the file from the old to the new.
Then open the new AB and click import AB archive"
You're done -

How Restore Deleted or Missing OS X Components
A few of the basic OS X installed applications can be restored from the Optional Installs installer located in the Optional installs folder on your Installer DVD. However, if what you need is not there then follow the instructions below.
How to Use Pacifist to Restore 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. 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.)
Drag a .pkg icon onto the Pacifist window .....proceed to step 7.
Click on “Open Package ....” and navigate to package desired and click “Open” in the open/save window.....proceed to step 7.
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) -
Mac PhotoBooth Squeeze effect for After Effects
Hello,
I am trying to achieve with after effects the same effect produced by the PhotoBooth sofware that comes with Mac.
I am looking for the "Squeeze" effect present in photobooth, is there such an effect to achieve the same effect with after effects?
Attached image for reference.
Thanks in advance for all the help.
Andres CalvoI have been able to emulate the squeeze effect using the "flo_motion" effect. It works by modifiying one of the knots of the effect, and leaving the second knot on "0".
Still looking for other options. Peace and strength. -

I was cleaning my Mac using this program 'CleanMyMac', everything was perfect until I went to the Launchpad and I noticed that lots of my apps didnt show their icons like Skype, Photo Booth, Terminal, Maps, Contacts, iBooks, Mac App Store, Reminder, etc. I tried to open them but I couldnt!!!! I cant even open terminal, and even worse... I CANT EVEN OPEN A PICTURE WITH 'PREVIEW'
I dont know what to do! I use OS X Mavericks!!!!!!
HELP PLEASE!ezuzugonz wrote:
... I went ahead and uninstalled CleanMyMac, it worked as the website says it did.
Actually, it doesn't. Following its developer's instructions leaves an active User Launch Agent com.macpaw.CleanMyMac2Helper.diskSpaceWatcher.plist.
/private/var/run/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac2.Agent.socket also remains.
~/Library/Application Support/CleanMyMac 2/CleanMyMac 2 Helper.app is not deleted either, nor is app.com.macpaw.CleanMyMac2.playlist, nor a cache file in com.plausiblelabs.crashreporter.data - which is probably harmless.
Only its developer can know what the above files do. There may be others that I did not find. The reason their programmers chose to leave them behind is known only to them.
The following illustrates the contents of diskSpaceWatcher.plist and /private/var/run after following its uninstallation instructions and subsequently rebooting:

I just had a question regarding the OS X Recovery, does that uninstall all my files as well?
No. Reinstalling OS X leaves all your files intact. Unfortunately it also leaves system modifications such as those installed by CleanMyMac intact as well. Eradicating them is up to you. -
How do i download the extra photobooth effects on the mac?
i just got the mac book pro, i was wondering how to download the extra photo booth effects?
There should be a download link on the extra special effects Photo Booth website. If not, do a Google search for a site that has download links.

Does anyone know any good photo booths other than photobooth for the mac??
please help me. Im looking for new effects for photos it take.
thanks alot!Hello JimmyStone
Photo Booth "effects" are commands that are built into OS X core functions, so all the effects available for Photo Booth are already in the app.
For some other ideas, look in http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1135958

Mac Mini + External Webcam connection to Photobooth & iChat
I have just purchased a Sogatel USB 168 Webcam - the basic system works but I do not know how to configure the camera to operate with PHOTO BOOTH and IChat - I wonder if you can offer any advice?
Thanks for the suggestions. A few hours after posting my issue I switched everything on and all was as before. I could control the audio input level in system preferences and use the webcam for skype calls as before, using it as the audio and video input device.
Now I have swithched the machine on again and it seems to have reverted back to the same problem as described in my original posting......very frustrating. Nothing registering on the sound input levels in system preferences. Tried restarting several times without success.
The Midi settings for the "Unknown USB Audio Device" i.e. Webcam are as follows:
Source Default (Grayed out)
Format 48000 Hz 1 ch 16 bit
M Channel volume slider is at the mid point, Value 0.49, dB 18.28, Mute and Thru both unchecked
I Channel slider grayed out and all else blank.
Since everything started working again I haven't touched these settings so I assume that they are the same with or without the issue.
I know issues that occur randomly such as this are least likely to find a solution but further suggestions welcome.
