Logitech c270 webcam and OS X

i've downloaded from the link that thekben posted, and the problem was not a problem anymore. thank you very much for posting, thekben, you rock.

I guess Logitech and Apple are finally playing nice together because my Logitech c270 installed on a mac mini with mavericks 10.9 got detected immediately by Skype and worked fine with zero fussing and no additional software needed, even though the package text said nothing about Mac compatibility, which had me worried. I did plug the camera into a port before opening Skype.

Thanks, thekben.

Just bought a Logitech C270 webcam today. Clicked on the link and downloaded the .dmg file and installed it on my Mac that is running OS X 10.11.3. The camera is working beautifully when I used Facetime.

Thanks for the link theKben. It really helped.🙂

I agree with this. I'm running OSX 10.11.4 (actually a Beta version) I've just bought a C270. You don't need any new software. Plug it in to the USB port and then open Skype.

Go to preferences and then Audio/Visual. Select Microphone and choose Unknown USB Audio Device. Go to Camera (still in Audio/Visual) select USB Camera.

Thats it! Excellent.....makes me look almost human!

Try another USB port. Not USB 3.0. Open e.g. Skype or FaceTime Application it will switch camera ON

I additionally use Ecamm's iGlasses (http://ecamm.com/mac/iglasses/) for greater control over the camera and the images it creates. Best application ever, it's easy to use and regularly updated (updates are free to buyers).

Hi all,

I've recently bought this webcam too and it is not automatically recognized by my Mac mini 2012 running Sierra OS.

The software from Logitech works though, but I wonder if anyone who experiences the same, has successfully use this webcam from Photobooth, Facetime or iMovie?

Thanks

Agree. I had to use this to get my C270 to work on OS X 10.11.6

Not working anymore. Don't use any software from Logitech for a C270. Get iGlasses and use it as a front end for your camera. Works perfect.
