I am asssuming you're using Yahoo Messenger.  On June 1st, Yahoo stopped supporting webcam for users of versions below 7, and since Yahoo hasn't updated it's Mac version of messenger in years, we, as mac users, are once again shunned.  They're trying to make the cam thing go faster, or they just want people with older versions to update so they will get more advertisements.  I have tried to use Jabber to communicate to my Yahoo friends.  I got the text to work, but so far, no video.

It is only possible in some cases. Your web cam has to be connected and working in the first place and you have te have an internet connection... There is a program that allows you to watch the camera and even have audio. But it has to be smuggled into your computer first. The program that does that is a clone of the sub7. I did get it myself by a p2p program. That program only works with msn messenger and yahoo messenger, if the instant messenger isn't protected by a good virus scanner, and the file/printer sharing is on.\nIf you really want to be sure no one is watching....just plug the web cam and microphone off !

A camcorder can be used as webcam, not a digital camera.\n\nNow, if you digital camera has capability of capturing or rendering video, then probably you might be able to.\n\nCamcorders / Digital cameras come with USB cables. You should first intall the camcorder / digital camera software on your computer. Then shut down your PC. Turn ON your camera and then connect your camcorder / digital camera to the USB port of your computer. (The restart is necessary because the camera drivers will only be installed when the registry is logged off and on). Once the PC is restarted, it might go through camera driver installation. (that is normal). Once all is set, start up your favorite conferencing / IM software and start your webcam. You should be able to view the videos... Dont forget to turn on your camera during this process. else your computer wont recognize any new hardware. \n\nHope that helps

Hiya! Try iVisit, you can view your own web cam and video conference with others as well as a lot of nice features like offline messaging. Give it a try. Quality and Clarity are solely reliant on what your cam itself is capable of doing. Some cams are better (or worse) than others

Probably, you must be behind a firewall.  To check for firewall settings, keep the camera disconnected.  Go to Yahoo Messenger > Preferenecs > Connection.  Select a connection with no firewall.  Click on OK and reconnect the camera.\n\nI hope it should work.  If it doesn't try reinstalling the camera drivers and verify with the admin if there is a firewall on the network that prevents access.

no, it's not currently possible - but if you email yahoo they might consider it for future software releases!

Make sure you don't have Skype or anything else that uses the camera running in the background while on Yahoo Messenger. The camera can only be used by one program at a time.

Just download yahoo messenger and install it on your pc. Do likewise with your webcam and run the installation CD. Once you've done this, you're practically all set ... you might go to the tools or options menu on yahoo messenger to adjust image settings.

Different webcams have different software to take photos. Once you use your webcam to take a picture, save it in a folder in your PC (preferably on the desktop itself).\n\nThen go to http://edit.profiles.yahoo.com/config/edit_identity and log in, then choose the upload picture option to upload the picture you want, to your profile. That's it.

My webcam came with software that will do it.  Some handicams will also do it, but it's less common than not.

Some cameras can, I have an Olympus c2100 and it has that option, if you have the software for them, but if you don't have a power supply they will go thru your batteries real fast. But a webcam is propably cheaper.

Connect the webcam to the computer (USB). Go to the Yahoo Messenger's main window. Click on "Messenger" in the menu bar, and click "My Webcam", a window pops up asking you the type of Internet connection u use, choose one, and click "OK". Then, on one window, you can see everything that the webcam is broadcasting. To invite someone to view ur webcam, open their IM window, click on the "Webcam" button in the window, and you will be notified when they start watching. Also, they can click on the "View My Webcam" status message of yours, when you get an option to give them the permission or not, for them to view your webcam. Hope this helps !
