iSight Camera Indicator Light went out

Just got this on 10.9.2 on a 2009 MBP - (and came back on after rebooting)

Facetime wasn't working.

Tried loading Photobooth, then facetime, skype etc then closing them. Light went out. Fingers crossed just trying a your apps that could use the ilight - saves the uninstalling apps etc if it works before that

Light should turn off when you quit all camera apps: OS X Mavericks: Use your Mac computer’s built-in camera.

Your 10.9.2 MBP seems to be working correctly in this regard.

If FaceTime doesn't work after rebooting, consider iSight camera failure after OS X 10.9 Mavericks update.
