Oct 18, 2014 4:22 AM in response to mogoluby willsh1983,I have this problem too on my late 2008 MBP, only no app (be it FaceTime, Photo Booth, or 3rd party like Skype) is recognising there is an inbuilt camera so I can't even get it to take photos or video..

Oct 18, 2014 7:59 PM in response to EZ Jimby mogolu,I tried all the methods including switch to different user account use different applications(facetime and photobooth) as well as resesting my SMC/PMU but still have the same problem. However my macbook pro does recognize iSight under USB section and when I open the applications, the green light next to the camera does light on normally. Just that it shows nothing but black.

I am using MBA 11" Mid 2011.

Then use the final Troubleshooting suggestion: "... contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service."
Unless you have a current backup, make one before tendering your Mac it for service.
