EZ Jim's Front Page


I am a Mac user who enjoys using iSight. I am not affiliated with Apple in any way except as a retail customer of theirs.


On 13 Nov, 2005, Apple moved and restructured Apple Discussions. These changes broke most of my links in Discussions, the Discussions Frequently Asked Questions, and these Topics.


EDIT 06 Apr 05 Status: I remain unable to edit my existing FAQs in the restructured Discussions. Pending Apple's addition of an ability to edit or replace my "old" FAQs, I continue to update these Topics to keep them current here.


EDIT 06 Feb 24 Status: Incremental changes to Apple Discussions apparently continue, and many of the previously broken links now seem to be working. However, I can still not edit my previously published information. Due to the number and magnitude of the changes, I cannot post corrections in the Discussions pages while they are in a state of flux.


To work around this problem, I have rewritten most of my FAQs and offer them via links in the "EZ Jim Topics" list at the right side of this page. Once the new Apple Discussions stabilize, I will try to judge how much rewrite work will be required. Then I will decide whether I will undertake that effort. In the interim, I invite you to use the new topic links.


* If you find errors in these topics or want to offer constructive comments, please report them to me via iChat AV when I am on line or via a "Comment" to the appropriate Topic here.


* If you need help beyond what you can find here, I suggest you post the specifics in Apple's iSight Discussions or iChat

Edit 2024:- As EZJim was saying, the Discussion Boards at Apple have been updated, and I thinkn at least twice more since 2005 when this was written. I would suggest Search and Post at the link I have converted it to. (Earlier Operating Systems) as no specific areas for the Original External iSight or iChat exits any more.
