You mean the app for taking photos with your isight cam? It's in the applications folder: Photo Booth.app
 
Once you find it... you must send us a picture

It is a requirement to prove you found it 😉

The easiest way is to press the apple key then spacebar and just type in what you want.

Remember to put a space between photo an booth in your spotlight search. It's "photo booth" not "photobooth".
 
3 ways

there are basically 3 ways to find it.

1.Spotlight search, pretty simple.

2. If your running snow leopard go to right of dock and go to applications and search for it there.

3. and go (up arrow key), command, H
or go to go at the top and click home.
then at the top right of the box hat comes up there is a search bar and type photobooth

if it doesn't come up for any of them you will have to look for it manually or its been deleted.

Restore: to get it back if its been deleted. you should have gotten a restore disk (iLife). put that in and i believe it comes up what you want to install that is on the disk and go to photobooth.

I have lost myn aswell i think some anti-virus software i have moved it or deleted it so i have to use the restore disk.
 
It'd be pretty sad if he hasn't found it by now. 😛

2 years old and it was Bambi's only post. I do hope that nothing bad happened to Bambi.

I call these orphan posts... someone posts their problem... others offer suggestions on how to fix... the op goes off to try these out... and nothing... we'll never know... which solution fixed the problem... did none of them work... is it still broke... we'll never know.
 
not to mention unless it was a used mac that already had a user set up. photobooth is a app that is in the dock when you first set up the user.
