What is going on with my webcam?

What is going on with my webcam? I have a mac laptop and when I open Photo Booth it says that my camera is enabled and there is nothing blocking it, but on the screen, it comes up green! It won’t show me even though I am right in front of it? What is going on here and how can I fix this?

Answer #1

Make sure you also have the latest updates installed on your Mac. For Mac’s running Tiger, its Update 10.4.11, and for Leopard its 10.5.1. Also for Macbooks/Macbook Pro’s there is a firmware update which addresses some issues (the webcam might be one). Just go to Software Update (from the Apple in the top-left corner) and make sure there’s no new updates for your computer.

If it still has problems, let us know and we’ll see what we can try next.
