Photo Booth: Pop Art does not work!

Mac OS X 10.4.7 demaged my Photo Booth. The Pop Art effect is not working anymore. This is my favorite effect.

This issue is ocurring only on iMacs G5.

iMac G5 1.9 iSight & Mac Mini 1.42, Mac OS X (10.4)

Oooh I feel bad . . . I just downloaded the QT 7.1.3 update and I get a message saying it can't install on my mini because it does not support the Mac's language I think I may have hosed the system with this Russian fix!

I have AppleCare, and I'm on hold right now, if I get a solution from Apple I will promptly post it here.

I hope no one else has this problem, I would feel bad because I was the one who mentioned the Russian Photobooth update in the first place.

Well, their advice was to archive and install, but I decided it was time for a good cleaning, so I backed up my home folders (and some non-baseline apps like Photobooth) to an external drive, zeroed out my hd, reinstalled Tiger.

Photobooth works (with Pop-Art!), QT 7.1.3 installed, iTunes 7 installed, cookies and keychains back in place, everything happy.

Hope it goes well for everyone else.

Hey guys ~ it's not that bad. Your EASIEST option is to 'install and archive' using the original CD (#1) that came with your machine. I did this last night. I DID however customize my install (you can click on 'customize' before actually installing).

I unchecked just about everything except the OS and Photobooth. I have iLife '06 installed on my machine and didn't want it to install iLife '05. All is well and was worth the little effort.

When using the 'Software Update' afterward, I did NOT update to 10.4.7...assuming that I'd screw up my Photobooth again :o) So, we'll wait and see what Apple comes up with before I do that again. All other updates completed successfully.

Good luck!
