    Sorry for the off topic, do any of you have a Mac Book Pro with the i sight camera. I cannot seem to turn mine on. Says the light should come on next to it when using photo booth.
    Thanks for any help, again please forgive the off topic

    Do you have any firewire devices plugged into the computer? If you have a camera or a deck plugged in it’s possible for Photobooth to think THAT’s what it should be using.

    If you have everything unplugged from the computer and running Photobooth STILL doesn’t turn on the green light then you might have an actual hardware problem. I’d take it to the Apple store at that point as I don’t know of any way to accidentally disable the camera if nothing is plugged in to the computer.
