Hi,
I have a logitech ultra vision that I use with my mac pro.
it works great.

The only thing I can't do it use the snapshot button to take pictures.
Has anyone done this on the mac and how did you do it?

Since there is no software installed for this camera on mac, I am lost as to how to do this.

Since there are no drivers, I doubt that you will ever get a camera specific behavior like that to work. You will need to rely on software to provide a virtual snapshot button. What software are you using?

If all else fails, you can use iChat's video preview and then take a window screen shot of it via the [CMD+SHFT+4, Space] approach.

I have a logitech quickcam for notebooks but can't get it to work on my Mac Pro. How'd you get yours to work?
