Sounds like a wonderful idea - using my iMac as a security cam that will take the pic of anyone who comes into this room when I am not there..then post it on the Witness site for me to see who ...perhaps walked off with my computer.

But, I'm having a helluva time with it?! Nice folks but maybe an actual user can tell me their experience with it. Thanks.

I use iCam to do that, it allows me to record events, as well as to watch what's going on in my space on my iPhone when away.

Jm.. Can iCam work w/o an iPhone? Witness can, but it also has iOS control abilities. I simply want it as a motion detector/cam recorder from 7pm to 5am.

I used this to figure out who was messing with my office chair at my old work every night. Turned out it was the janitor.
