Applications :: IChat Can Not Use Webcam?

May 14, 2009

I have a MacBook with built in webcam, external webcam, and iChat. Next to everyone who has a Mac on iChat is the green box, but there is a phone icon rather than a video icon.

Video chats used to work, but suddenly they stopped. Clicking the green icon next to my name on top opens a box that days "My Build-in iSight" and I can see myself in that webcam, but can not make video chats. How can I fix this?

I recently bought a iMac and I'm still learning how to use this OS. The question is can I use iChat to chat with someone using a Windows PC or do I need to install something like Skype? Also when I chat, is there a way to screengrab something so I can show something over the webcam?

MacBook :: Finding Any Instant Messenger Program That Supports The Webcam (besides IChat)?

Apr 20, 2008

I use MSN (windows live) messenger. Going to switch to Mac soon for college, so I wanted to know if there was any MSN- capable IM program for OSX that supports the webcam of the MacBook.

I heard Adium is a good IM app, but does not support the webcam. Not sure about windows live messenger either.

Hardware :: Skype Does Not Recognize Firewire Camcorder OnBoard Microphone But IChat Does

Feb 25, 2009

I'm attempting to use a Canon Optura 300 MiniDV camcorder as a webcam for Skype on a current-generation Intel Mac Mini, running Mac OS X 10.5.6 Server with the latest release of Skype.

Connected via Firewire (1394a 6 to 4 pin) Skype recognizes the camera without any problems and the image is crystal clear, but it does not recognize the camera's built-in microphone as a sound input option. Testing with iChat, Apple's software does recognize the on-camera mic as sound input (and passes-through fine), but it never actually appears as an input option in the System Preferences' Audio panel, which I think is the root of Skype's problem.

The Optura, with a wide-angle lens attached, gives us a wider field of view than our external iSight, making it more useful for showing off our newborn, from the comfort of our living room (without having to huddle around the MBP), to friends and family currently far afield. (Plus, since the Mini in question is our media server, we can Skype via our HDTV.)

Applications :: Screenshot / Webcam Software?

Dec 12, 2010

I work from home two days a week and work my ass off for my boss! However, she seems to think I do nothing, mostly because she doesn't understand how many times you replan a financial model before you get it right and how long this takes!

Anyway, I thought if I was able to take a screenshot of my screen every 5 seconds and a shot of myself (through my webcam on my MacBook Pro), then put it into a video, she would be able to see exactly what i do and it would stop her complaining!

Feb 20, 2010

a good program to record webcam footage? I'd like to get an iSight or other webcam and put it in the window beside my front door to record who comes up to the door. I've been having a problem with nosy neighbors messing with mail recently. I have a Mini I could dedicate to this project, basically what I want it to do is just record constantly to the hard drive, automatically erasing after, say, a week or so.

Applications :: Webcam Compatibility With Apple Desktop?

Dec 27, 2010

I am currently looking to purchase a webcam for my Apple Desktop. I am really interested in buying the logitech C910 Webcam. I know on their website it says that this webcam is not officially supported by the Mac OS. However I am wondering if there is anyway I could make it work. I would be using it for Facetime, Skype, and Photobooth. I read that you can run the Webcam in UVC mode, but I'm not sure if these applications will still work with it.

Applications :: Finding Instant Messenger With Windows Live And Webcam

Jun 8, 2010

I have downloaded about 3 different instant messengers:

- Mercury Messenger
- aMSN
- Microsoft Messenger (newest version)

These all claim to have the ability of video chat and using the webcam, however, none so far have done so and every time I have tried it has failed or cancelled and can't connect.

I would like to know if I'm doing something wrong, I have gone through all the preferences and sorted everything that I think is right.

Applications :: Creating IChat ID

Mar 19, 2009

I am in the process of setting up iChat on my spousal unit's iMac. I've already created a Jabber account, using her gmail address. That seems to work fine. Now I'd like to add an AIM account. When I click on "Get an iChat Account..." in the Account Setup window,It was my understanding that this signup gets you an AIM account, but it from the first line on the page, it seems to assume that you're using .Mac (even more oddly, since .Mac doesn't actually exist any longer).What am I missing here? Aren't AIM, MobileMe and .Mac accounts the same for purposes of iChat?
