Got anything a bit simpler? Not sure what happened. Should be simple enough. This is excellent. Photo Booth still reports no camera connected. As near as I can tell, the iSight camera continues to run after running the script. At least the little green light at the top of the screen stays on.
I suspected Skype, but starting it, quitting, and restarting has no effect. The little green light remains on. What application can still use the iSight after running the script? Just tried PhotoBooth.
It reports no connected camera. When then does the green light remain on, and what does it mean? Some application is using the green light.
Did you ever use a previous version of iSight Disabler on this computer? Have you tried rebooting your mac? If so, does the green light remain on perpetually? Before I run this script, and great script thank you! Successfully tested both versions 3. Version of OS X? Version of iSight Disabler? How are you running the script? I need to use my external usb webcam with uStream. Hoped this script would turn off the inbuilt iSight and allow me to use the external aGent V5 cam with its wide angle lens and low light facilities.
However it actually turns off both. Any ideas? However, there is a known problem with using this dialog box under Lion.
Your ability to select your webcam might depend on that bug getting fixed or an alternative way of selecting which webcam for Flash to use. Thanks for the script man! I for the life of me can not get this to work. Any help would be great! I have downloaded the program and tried dropping it in the script files and tried to enable the camera and still nothing works. Version 4 has been released. Works on Lion. PhotoBooth was encouraging un-library-like behavior by groups of younger patrons.
The librarians can now turn the iSights on or off. Or is that even possible? Would like to limit access to it without completely disabling the application. Tech coach in a school system. I use the new logitech HD and it work fine n my Snow I also use Logitech no problem.
But my internal camera still works on Skype. Any idea how I can undo the disabler?? To me this means that FaceTime a is either using its own driver for the camera or b is enabling an unloaded driver at launch and disabling it again upon quit.
Is there a chance to update the iSight Disabler to address this issue? Thanks for reporting! I just investigated and it appears that FaceTime. I could certainly add that to the list of drivers to disable… and ignore it if FaceTime.
You may just have motivated me to clean up the AppleScript and release a new version. I am new to scripts and really like this one. I use it in my computer lab via Apple Remote Desktop to enable or disable isight as needed and it works great. Is there a way I can send remotely via ARD passing the admin username and password so I am not prompted for it on all 26 computers in my lab?? I would like to do this as silently as possible. So basically if you eliminate the differences in the script between I do not have my install disc with me but urgently need the file, as I deleted it before to disable isight.
Thanks for any help in advance.. The meeting tools that I use regularly always activate the iSight and it was off after using the script. However, I noticed that the iSight became active again but I did not enable the iSight.
MacBook running Quick question: When you use the script to disable the iSight, do you quit the apps using the iSight? You have to quit Photo Booth and other applications using the iSight. Only then on the next launch of the applications will they fail to open the driver s due to permissions change on the driver file s. I no longer have a We had to delete them to disable the cameras. I just tested version 3. Works like a charm! Please how can i get it back. Have you tried checking the skype forums?
I am grateful for this script created but I have encountered a problem. Skype, etc. Can anyone help? Regardless of iSight being enabled or disabled, the mic status is the same. What I actually mean is to disable either one of two available iSights when a Macbook is attacted to an external display which has an iSight also. By external iSight do you mean the Firewire iSight that Apple used to make?
Does the new version 3. Apparently the Quicktime update disables the disabler. Version 3. I am trying to use this software in conjunction with a Proscope HR microscope that is usb based and I noticed that the Proscope software will still not see my microscope even though the I-Sight camera has been turned off. Any thoughts on being able to toggle through the USB ports to allow a plugged in device to be used.
The Dynex cam was refered by someone in the apple forums. They said that was one of the very few external cams that work on macs. So I went out and bought one. There has to be a way to disable only the iSight. At the time of upload, the image license was automatically confirmed using the Flickr API.

Apple apparently doesn't want you inside this thing. They decided to use 5-point Security Torx to attach the lower case. I removed the drivers using "iSightdisabler version 5", and covered the lens with grey colored paint. Problem solved! It's possible that the facility's overlords will be satisfied with physically disabling the camera, as opposed to removing it. After all, every cellphone made for the last years has a camera; do they confiscate everyone's phones when they come onsite?
You can disable the iSight camera by disconnecting the cable connecting the camera to the logic board. Joined Mar 16, Messages Reaction score 14 Points Mac Daddy Vibe said:. Berko iSight and other camera mirroring within Apple applications is not poor, and is actually easy to explain and understand. DamienJ New member. Joined Dec 5, Messages 1 Reaction score 0 Points 1. Thats great for iChat and Photo but what about when you want to use the camera to show an actual app that has something other than someones face.
Apple has to accept that there is "enterprise" users and not just "consumer". DamienJ said:. It happens on my MacBookPro too. Any picture I take with the built in camera have been reversed to me and everybody else too.
I searched for a solution before a few years ago and found none. I'm back to Windows by the way. Don't ever look in your rearview mirror in the car. Same thing. Apple, thankfully, provided a method to deal with exactly that. Bless them and their foresight.
