Apple's iSight Service: Frequently Asked Questions
You can also post a new topic at iSight Discussions and wait for someone to answer it. This will take more work on your part, and it takes longer to get an answer, but it works if you cannot get help any other way. Include information which would help better answer your question such as: Mac model and speed, Camera details, application(s) you are using to drive your camera, what you have already tried in order to solve the problem, and specifics of your question.
