Webcam not detected in Mavericks Operating System

Hi Team,
I upgraded my Macboox OS to Mavericks and since than the webcam is not detected in facetime skype or my other office application like Cisco Jabber.
I know "sudo killall VDCAssistant" works, But it works for some days and again webcam stops working.
We have huge engineer base in office who uses Macbook and if the colloboration through video is not working, it may affect the further purchases.
Is Apple willing to provide some permanent solution to this problem.
regards
Ronak Patel

You mention earlier that you have an iMac that works with the apps that give trouble on your rMBP.
If your rMBP originally came with Mavericks installed, the only workaround I can suggest is that you use your iMac to maintain your non-Apple relationships until the problem is resolved.
If your rMBP originally came with Mountain-Lion or earlier installed, and if you need to use your rMBP with the problem software apps, consider retreating to Mountain Lion until the problem is resolved in Mavericks.

Why does my imac camera not work with maverick operating system

i updated my software to 10.9.2 yesterday and facetime and photobooth dont recognize my built in camera on my imac

Try these in order:
1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
    b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
     Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
     COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and
     after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears.
     Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
     Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).
4. Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).

I have the new OS X Mavericks operating system, and when I invoke IMaps, the location given is not correct. I have attempted to correct it, but it stays the same. Whazzup with that?

In addition to answering innocentius' question:
You say that nothing happens, yet you are able to export to youtube. Please describe in detail what you are trying.
What destinations do you see? How exactly are you trying to export?
Also: Cmd-E will only work if you set a default destination.

Illustrator CS5.1 Crashes each time i try to save, started happening after installing new mavericks operating system (MAC OSX)

Hi,
I'm having issues with my illustrator software. It keep crashing before i have chance to save anything and I've lost of of my work 3 times now and getting fed up. It seems to be playing up ever since i downloaded the new Mavericks Operating System on my macbook pro. But this is definitely the worst its been. Ive never had to force quit so much in my life.
I have tried a few things to sort it out, but has anyone else had this issue?
Thank you
Holly

Holly,
Did you reinstall the CS5 after installing Mavericks?
If not, you should; otherwise, Illy is likely to get confused, and then she does funny things, or nothing at all.
The safest way is the full three step way.
Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool, and reinstall.

Mail application with new maverick operating system requires me to log into i cloud every time I open the mail application. Why is this?

I downloaded the new maverick operating system to my mac book pro, and after the download, the mail appliation keeps poping up a log in box from i cloud asking my password. Why?

If the email addresses are not aliases and you have seperate sign in Apple IDs, the first sign into iCloud with your main address.
For the second, open Mail, Contacts, & Calendars icon in system preferences. Click to add account and choose iCloud in the list. Provide your ID and password and the account should be created. You will not be able to sync AB, Calendars, etc though. You will only have those features with the first main account you set up first.

You are still under warranty w/HP. Suggest that you call their tech support department. Ask them, when they will supply drivers that will work w/Maverick.

SSIS BULK INSERT unsing UNC inside of ForEach Loop Container Failed could not be opened. Operating system error code 5(Access is denied.)

Hi,
I am trying to figure out how to fix my problem
Error: Could not be opened. Operating system error code 5(Access is denied.)
Process Description:
Target Database Server Reside on different Server in the Network
SSIS Package runs from a Remote Server
SSIS Package use a ForEachLoop Container to loop into a directory to do Bulk Insert
SSIS Package use variables to specified the share location of the files using UNC like this
\\server\files
Database Service accounts under the Database is runing it has full permission on the share drive were the files reside.
In the Execution Results tab shows the prepare SQL statement for the BULK insert and I can run the same exact the bulk insert in SSMS without errors, from the Database Server and from the server were SSIS package is executed.
I am on a dead end and I don’t want to re-write SSIS to use Data Flow Task because is not flexible to update when metadata of the table changed.
Below post it has almost the same situation:
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/8de13e74-709a-43a5-8be2-034b764ca44f/problem-with-bulk-insert-task-in-foreach-loop?forum=sqlintegrationservices

Insteresting how I fixed the issue, Adding the Application Name into the SQL OLAP Connection String Fixed the issue. I am not sure why SQL Server wasn't able to open the file remotely without this.

SCCM 2012 - Adding Operating System Installer (The specified path does not contain a valid operating system ..)

I have encountered the dreaded "The specified path does not contain a valid operating system or you do not have permission to access it. Specify a valid path" message that seems to be popular in many forums .... BUT, so far none of the "solutions"
have fixed the problem (of I don't understand the fix)
Configuration
SCCM 2012 SP1 5.0.7804.1000
WADK 8.100.26629.0 < Suggested Fix
Server 2008 R2
SCCM Administrator with UserID = SCCMAdmin
Steps / Fixes I have followed
I have configured a administrative share
\\caleb\sources$ to hold directories (such as Apps, Drivers, and OS) with the following NTFS Permissions
EVERYONE has Read and Execute, List folder, Read permissions<o:p></o:p>
SYSTEM has Full Control
<Suggested Fix
SCCMManagers (our group that has all SCCMManagers) has Full Control<o:p></o:p>
SCCMAdmin (the SCCM Admin account that we are using to import image) has Full Control<o:p></o:p>
Local Administrators (the local machine administrator) has Full Control
<Suggested Fix
<o:p></o:p>
Another Fix is to explicitly grant all permissions to the SCCM Administrator
<Suggested Fix
>Administrative Users ...
Properties of the SCCM Administrator (for us that is SCCMAdmin) has all the boxes checked<o:p></o:p>
Another suggestion I was able to glean was to Specify the Network Access Account
so I configured SCCMAdmin as the Network Access Account.
Another potential fix is that the image ISO file that has been downloaded is corrupt.   So, I downloaded the Win 7 (and Win 8.1) ISO's from MSDN and did a Checksum check.
I then mounted the ISO (on 2008R2 I use VirtualClone Drive) and copied the contents of the image to
E:\Sources\OS\en_windows_7_professional_with_sp1_vl_build_x86_dvd_u_677896 for Windows 7 with SP1
To double check,
I computed the Hash on the Install.WIM located in the Sources directory and compared with
the computed Has Tag for the Install.WIM on the ISO Image ... and the Hash tag of the WIM's matched (extracted vs what is contained within the ISO)<o:p></o:p>
I tried to load the images into SCCM 2012 using the "Operating System Installers" option
UNC to installer
\\caleb\sources$\OS\en_windows_7_professional_with_sp1_vl_build_x86_dvd_u_677896
Then I receive the lovely message <o:p></o:p>
"The specified path does not contain a valid operating system or you do not have permission to access it. Specify a valid path"<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>

Why does it say that the updated version of Firefox (which I am trying to download) is not compatible with my operating system when I have Mac OS X 10.5.8?

Why does it say that the updated version of Firefox (which I am trying to download) is not compatible with my operating system when I have Mac OS X 10.5.8? I had an older version of Firefox and it said I needed to update it but that was the message that appeared.

Sorry, it's because Firefox 4+ are only compiled for the Intel processors.

MDT 2013 The source directory does not contain an identifiable operating system

Hi,
I am using MDT 2013 and I am trying to deploy server 2008 in it. I mount my 2008 iso file, import OS, then select full set of source files, and enter D:\ . It says, "The source directory does not contain an identifiable operating system". I am
sure that install.wim file is present in sources folder. What other folders/files does it need while importing OS?
Note: it is an customized OS. It has MS hotfixes and dotnet 4.5 installation package in it.

How do I find out how much space I have left on my macbook pro? I downloaded the new mavericks operating system and can't figure it out. Before the space would be at the bottom of my finder.

I downloaded the new mavericks operating system on my macbook pro and I can't find out how much space I have left. Before the installation of mavericks, storage space left was displayed at the bottom of the Finder window.

In the Finder, under the View menu there is an option to Show Status Bar. Select that and you will see the info on the bottom of folders again.

Canon EOS 100D is listed as compatible in Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 6.01 but when I connect my camera a message appears telling it's not compatible with the operating system?

Canon EOS 100D is listed as compatible in Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 6.01 and when I have checked for software updates there are none available. I've downloaded the Canon software, connected to my mac via the cable and followed the instructions in the manual. Sadly I just get a message saying it's not compatible with the operating system. I've tried inserting the memory card into the mac to and it doesn't seem to see it. Can anyone help please?

Camera RAW ≠ Camera driver, the RAW update is for the .CR2 canon raw image file (in your case) compatibility.
What happens when you try to import photos using Image Capture or iPhoto?
Can you take a screenshot of the error message?
I always prefer and recommend using memory card import over using the camera.
