On my MacBook ProPhoto Booth is displaying only a blank green screen. It was working for several weeks, this just started. I trashed plist and reloaded application from the install disk. There are no preferences and nothing fancy with this app (except for funky modes). Seems like it cant find the built in camera. No other apps running, rebooted etc.etc.

    does it do the same thing in iChat?

    as in, when you click on your video camera icon in iChat, do you see green as well?

    this happened on my iMac... had to shut down and unplug the mac... that fixed it.



    On a macbook, i have no idea how you would kill power like that. Maybe shut down and remove battery?





    Not sure. but give it a try

    Hey sobelizzard, you are an Apple Genius Bar guy!! Removed the battery, took a look around at the bottom,(lots of electronic things that are usually covered) put battery back, powered up and viola! Back to normal.

    Thanks.
