Hi there

The built in camera in my new MacBook Pro has stopped working, Ichat thinks there is no camera attached. I have downloaded and installed a osx 10.4.9 update but this has not fixed it. Any idea please...

Yeah I'm having the same problem. However I have an Imac. photobooth tells me it might be in use by another application. How do I check that?

No idea, my macbook pro is only a month old so I will call apple support today and get their advice, I can only think its either a problem with the camera it self (ie its bust) or some osx related problem as several applications including ichat and comic life report that no camera is attached to my machine. Yeh right, well they were 2 weeks ago when I last tried to use it....!
