Ever since applying the firmware update to iSight... it does not function under Yahoo. Works FINE in iChat still. Beware.

I wasn't even aware iSight worked under Yahoo. Good to know.

ALL IS CLEAR - FEEL FREE TO UPDATE!

It turns-out it was Coincidental... it was NOT the 1.0.3 update that did it... it was a Yahoo Server-side thingy that prevented ALL iSight users for several hours... but it has been resolved.

Other Yahoo/iSight users that didn't update woke-up this morning to no video connection also.

I do not know the EXACT nature of the snafu... but it appears to be fixed now. Works for them, and myself too. Have fun!

BTW - I don't notice a damned difference. :o)

For some reason I have gotten a message saying the yahoo servers are too busy for the past week at least with my isight. I also haven't been able to get an ichat to PC/AIM(5.5) video chat working in case someone has some suggestions.
