[QUOTE="iscameron, post: 997101, member: 35469"] OSX - 10.6.2 Skype - 2.8.0.722 I've just gotten back onto Skype and I've run into the problem that my iSight is not working with it. It runs fine in other programs and I have checked the preferences in Skype and video is Enabled. There are two options for the camera choice, Built-in iSight and Built-in iSight(Leopard)... Built-in iSight ->displays black with the words "Camera in use by other application" Built-in iSight (Leopard) -> the green light beside the camera turns on but the image is just green. There are some suggestions, the first is to run a program that runs an applescript that turns on the camera (not really what I'd like), the other is to delete a file in Quicktime that appears to run the camera (which I can't find). I'm looking for a permanent fix to this, and it appears that the Skype Admins are not acknowledging this issue. Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
