I followed the instructions, didn't help. So far the only thing I've found that works, is unplugging it from my powermac and plugging it into the powerbook. After that it works fine with the powermac until the next time.

It's connected properly because it shows up in ASP.

Help!

Nevermind, I left it unplugged for 10 minutes and it's working fine now.

Yea, but after plugging it back in it's fine until the next day when i want to use it. I have gotten this error 4 times now, when I use the iSight about once a week. So I guess there is no permanent fix for this issue?
