This is the only webcam that Apple currently sells, and macam doesn't work with it.
Logitech didn't make sure to make the webcam compatible with iMovie and other apple applications. This is ridiculous.

I've tried to download macam.0.9.1.dmg from several different mirror sites. Every time I get an .exe file with a different name instead of the dmg file. What's going on??

macam Troubleshooting Reportmacam app works, but no joy with component - Version: 0.9.1, 7/20/2007 07:55PM PST

Macam app works great, but can't get the .component to work. I'm using OSX 10.3.9, macam 0.9.1 and vimicro generic camera.

I have tried removing all other QT components but cannot get the camera to be detected with Camspinner, BTV, Skype, or EVOcam.

Interestingly the .component comes up as a folder - not the 'lego' looking icon as seen in screenshots.

Anyone have a solution?? I have searched the web and come accross several other people with this problem, but no solution...
