When I try to open Photo Booth, I get this message. As far as I know, this is the only app that I have that uses a camera. I have an Imac with built in camera. Tec support was not any help.

Try closing your IM applications and try Photo Booth again. Some IMs allow video chats, and even if you're not in a video chat maybe it's still accessing your camera for some reason.

I was going to say the same thing. I suspect a chat client is getting in your way.

Do you have a file called "QuickTimeUSBVDCDIgitizer.component" in your /System/Library/Quicktime folder? If not, try downloading it from here and throwing it in there.
