Evening, In addition to Daniel's comment ensure the camera is working successfully with PhotoBooth. If it does but you are still experiencing issues then I would suggest resetting the PRAM. (Recommended as it is a common requirement in our deployment) Apple has a good knowledge base article on doing so.

Check if you can disable the camera in that app. Reg On 25/06/2009, at 7:38 PM, Daniel Kerr wrote: > Also Merv, make sure you don't have the video "muted".
