Q&A: How do I use my built in isight to make a movie?

Question by Steve J: How do I use my built in isight to make a movie?
Imovie HD keeps saying “no camera attached” and nothing is seen on screen from my iSight. I see a lot of people use their macs to make youtube videos, so it shouldn’ be this complicated. The help guide in the computer is useless.

It should work. Make sure you are using the correct version of iMovie. Check also to make sure that other applications which may be using the camera are not open, such as Photo Booth or iChat. iMovie cannot access the iSight camera if it is already in use by another application.
