Can anyone help me out? I'm not sure what is wrong with my isight. I open up imovie then click on the camera, the only thing that shows is a blue screen and it says that my isight device is not available. Any ideas of what I could do?

Do you have another video device plugged in? iMovieHD has the option to switch input devices when you switch the capture device (right click on the camera). Look at the toggle that switches between capture/playback/editing. I found this out one day when our DVcamera was plugged into firewire and the iSight was showing as the input for capture in iMovie.

It doesn't sound like it will fix your problem, but its worth a look.
