Q: Not working since Yosemite upgrade
-
Oct 23, 2014 8:15 AMby EZ Jim,If restarting Mac does not solve your problem, try the relevant suggestions from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090.
The "reset" suggested there often restores camera function.
Don't connect any other Firewire device while you are troubleshooting your old Firewire iSight working.
Firewire iSight can be intolerant of shared Firewire connections.

What I find odd, is that I have not touched any of the connection before upgrading. Camera and cable was fine and should still be.
The reset in your link only relates to internal iSight. I guess I will try it anyway.

Oct 24, 2014 10:51 AMby etigro,Ok. I have tried and reset the SMC (5 second press on power button of the Mac mini while unplug) but that did not work.
I have no other Firewire device connected.
I also went and ask a Genius at an Apple Store...they probably thought I was a dinosaur and were barely aware that iSight cameras once where not internal.
They asked me to come by with the camera to see if it would work on one of their machine. Why not but not sure they still have a machine with a firewire 400 connection...
Any other idea welcome.
