Photo booth not responding

[hurl everstone]

Hola,

got a brand new MacBook, and the Photo Booth is not recognizing that a camera is hooked up. Anyone else had this problem? (No camera recognized in iChat, either.)

I remember reading another post just like this a while ago... but I don't know what he did about it or if he got it working at all... try searching the forum!

I had a problem where Photo Booth complained that some other application was using the camera (or something to that effect).

Resetting the PRAM fixed it for me. (Reboot your computer, and right when you hear the reboot chime, hold down option+command (apple)+p+r .. keep all 4 keys pressed until you've heard the reboot chime a total of 4 times).
