help! My FaceTime Camera stopped working after I installed Lion!

I have a MacBook Air, which I got about 2 months ago (just after the release month was announced!)


I installed Lion today, and love it...except that my Facetime Camera is no longer detected.


What can I do?

So, I spent about an hour on the phone to Apple Support (there is no Apple Store here in Hong Kong yet!).


I was asked to delete a system file, and restart, Check my HDD in recovery mode, and boot up in Safe mode - all to no avail!!!


I then got very worried when the technician started saying something like "Do you have all of your files backed up somewhere???"


I have a LaCie Wireless Space, which has not been updated to provide Time Machine bakups again! Old ATF problems, so until the time that I get this sorted, no, I will not erase my HDD!!!


Anyone with this problem who has had it fixed?
