i installed CamTwist a while ago to try it out.
turns out while its installed i cant use the camera on facebook without CamTwist actually running.

so i figured the easy way out of this (since i dont use camtwist often at all) was to just uninstall the app.
so i went ahead and did that, but it still turns out that facebook cant find my camera, and its not only like that with Firefox, Safari does the same thing.
ive tried other websites like TokBox and it seems to be doing the same thing, so i installed the application again, just to use it. but then facebook wont accept my video messages when camtwist is running..

is there anyway to completely erase camtwist and put anything it changed anywhere back to normal.
i dont understand why facebook wont see my camera unless its running
 
Hi! I hope this helps.

1) Delete CamTwist from your Applications folder.
2) Then remove the plugin by pasting this into Terminal:
sudo rm -rf /Library/CoreMediaIO/Plug-Ins/DAL/CamTwist.plugin
