Newbie question



How do I use the built-in camera for IM? I was assuming I could use it with MSN Messanger or even Yahoo Messanger? ( Luckily, a Mac friend was with me when I downloaded MSN Messanger, as out of habit, I went to the Windows version

    Personally I get on much better with iChat (using an AIM account) and Skype... both of which are far better supported on the Mac and support video. However if all your friends/colleagues are on Yahoo/MSN then try:

    make sure you will be downloading the YM version (Yahoo messanger for Mac BETA) that is compatible with mac.. hopefully you're all set to go.. it works fine and all you have to do is just look for the option that can allow you to do a video conference, but unlike iChat, it doesn't have any feature that will allow you to do a vid conference with 3 people



    hope it works
