Built in iSight not recognized? - Crumpetmaster - 02-28-2013 05:18 PM

Yesterday I used my Mac to make a video with clones! It was really fun, and I used my built in iSight on iMovie. I try doing the same thing on iMovie today and it says: "No Camera Connected. To import a video, please connect a camera.". What's going on? I don't have iChat or Photo Booth open. Can anyone explain why it didn't do this yesterday but it did today and how to fix it? Thanks in advance Smile

There are 2 ways of recording with your iSight camera in iMovie.
1. Click the camera button left side middle of your screen.
2. iMovie > File > Import from Camera.
If those 2 don't work then try re-booting your computer and/or doing a file permission repair of your HD in Disk Utility.
Best,
