cammie Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 Hi everyone, I just had my first successful install on a Gigbyte Motherboard. Now I have an interesting problem with the webcam (A Creative Labs webcam). It was working after installing the OS (Snow Leopard) because it wanted to take my picture (I had it plugged in during the install), but after registering the OS I haven't been able to get it working again! It see's the webcam, Photo booth, iChat, and Skype knows it's there, but each time I try to use it, they say that "Your camera is in use by another application". What app could that be and how do I find out? I tried going into my account to see what apps are running at startup but there isn't anything. Help!

ronl0 Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 I have this same problem but my webcam never worked. iChat says "Another Application is using your camera" and I get a black screen with photo booth. I'm running Snow Leopard 32bit installed from iAtkos S3 v2. I cant even use tokbox or any site that supports web chatting. Heres my webcam.
