[QUOTE="leoseeley, post: 639429, member: 39147"] **MacBook Pro / 2.33Ghz / 2GiB RAM / OSX 10.5.2 Leopard** As the title says - my isight works with Photobooth (including recording video) and thus is funtional. Whether using iChat or Skype, I get similar problems: iChat "no video camera connected" Skype "No Video Camera Connected" PhotoBooth Works fine - so my camera is functional... Steps I've taken: Verify Disk Repair Permissions Erase Skype (inc. all pref's + "hidden" folders) Reinstall Skype I've also tried all of the above with NO PERIPHERALS connected - just in case they were interfering... Had no luck - iChat / Skype still displaying those messages.... I'm able to RECEIVE video (on skype - haven't tried iChat)... I've posted on the Skype forum's but responses are few and far between - Any help here would be appreciated if anybody's got a fix? I currently live 300 miles away from my girlfriend! [/QUOTE]
