So I was hit with the "Get Windows 10" icon on my desktop last night and before I make the commitment to upgrade in July, I just wondered if there were any foreseeable compatibility or stability issues with iCam source anticipated. I'd rather continue using iCam than upgrade my OS.
Thanks guys, you're always a huge help, no matter what issues arise!
Hi forum, Just wondering if anyone using an iPhone 6+ has encountered any issues with iCam. I'm waiting to upgrade my phone until I'm sure iCam will run. After all, it is my most important and heavily used app.
Hey everyone! Just wanted to ask a quick question before upgrading to iCam pro.
I have used iCam for many years and absolutely LOVE IT! It has taken some tweaking, but I have everything from connectivity to motion capture, perfect. My question is: if I were to also install iCanPro Source, would I be able to just back and forth from iCam and Pro? Obviously, I wouldn't be able to use both at once, but could both Sources be installed on the same PC without any issues, as long as they're not both running at the same time. Also, would I open the same port range in my router for Pro that I now use for iCam?
Does anyone out there have a list of modems that are incompatible with iCam. I'm replacing my modem and the one my service provider supplies (Mediacom) is a docsis 3, i believe. Just wanting to avoid any connectivity issues with iCam.

I've been using iCam for a couple years now. I run 4 cameras constantly with 1 of those cameras recording to Dropbox.
Lately though, I've been have some connectivity problems with my router or modem, not sure which is to blame. So I plan on replacing the router first.
Just wanted to know if anyone has a recommendation for a router they have had great luck with. iCam is probably the most taxing on my wifi setup so I may need something beefy. My current router I've had for 3 years which is how long I've been running iCam. I've read that some aren't compatible with iCam Source so I want to make sure I purchase one that will work with iCam.
Thank you all for your time and help! This forum is amazing with so many great people willing to offer excellent advice.
Hey everyone, I was thinking about adding 2 addional cameras to my iCam setup at home using an extra PC I have. I was wondering if there were any specs I needed to take into consideration when installing a wireless card into the new PC that would be wirelessly streaming that footage to my network. Thanks everyone, Ryan
Hey everyone! Had a quick question. I've been running iCam Source on a Windows 7 PC with 4 webcams for a couple years now. Everything works great! I've recently acquired a second PC and would like to expand my collection of cameras. My question is: Can I set up cameras on 2 different PCs, simply by downloading iCam Source on the new PC (which is on the same WiFi network BUT not hardwired to the router) and then opening the same port range in my router that I have open for the old PC, but now including the IP address of the new PC?
Ideally, when I'd open the iCam app on my iPhone, I'd see a collection of all the cameras from both PCs on the screen simultaneously, even though they'd be from 2 separate IP addresses. Am I correct in thinking this and did I leave any steps out?
As always, thank you for your time and assistance with this matter. This forum has always been great to me! Ryan
Hey Everyone, Anyone Know Of A Reason That iCam Source Would Crash For No Apparent Reason, After Running Flawlessly For Over A Year And a Half Now?
I Believe The Problem May Be Paired To The External Hard Drive That Records The Motion Events. I Have Had This Problem Before But It's Always Corrected Itself. I Did A Diagnostic On The Hard Drive And A "Not Responding" Problem Was Fixed. I've Ran The CleaniCamKey As Well. iCam Will Run For About 10 Minutes, Then Crash. If I Try To Restart iCam, It Will Crash As Soon As I Hit Start. Reset The PC And We're Back To Square One. As I Said, I Believe The Problem To Be Connected To The Hard Drive But I'm Unsure How To Fix This. Any Ideas?
Hello Everyone! Just Have A Quick Question. Can Any Anticipate Any Problems With The Upcoming iOS6 Upgrade For Apple Devices And iCam? Just Wanted To Make Sure This Superb App Will Continue To Work Perfectly If I Make The Upgrade Or Purchase The iPhone 5.
Let Me First Say That iCam Is Probably The Best Thing To Ever Happen To Me. I've Been Running It For Almost 2 Years Now And Though There Have Been A Few Bumps Along The Way, This Forum Has ALWAYS Helped Me Through Them. That Being Said, I Am Having A Small Issue. I Run 4 Logitech Webcams 24 Hours A Day, All With Different Degrees Of Motion Record On A Windows 7 PC. Once Or Twice A Week, Around The Same Time Of Day, One Of The Cameras (The Same Camera Every Time) Will Freeze. A Software Restart Doesn't Do The Trick But A System Reboot Will Get It Back Running And Then Everything Will Be Fine For The Next Few Days. All 4 Cameras Are Connected With USB Repeater Extension Cables And Like I Said, Work Wonderfully 99% Of The Time. My Question Would Be To Anyone Having This Same Experience, Does This Sound Like A Hardware Issue ie: Replace The Camera That Keeps Freezing Or Is It Maybe The PC (Which Was Built Less Then A Year Ago). I Run iCam Source 2.2.3 If That Helps Anyone. Thank You For Any Help That Can Be Provided. Ryan
I've been running 4 webcams continuesly for almost 2 years now using iCam Sourse 2.2.3 On a Windows 7 PC without any problems. All 4 motion record to an external hard drive. Everything has worked flawlessly in the past. Today I got an error about the hard drive so I unplugged and replugged it in. When I went to relaunch iCam, it stayed up for a minute or so then crashed. I tried relaunching, same crash. I then reset my computer, same crash. Finally, I disabled the motion record but iCam is still crashing upon launch every time. Like I said I've been running this set up a long time now and never had this problem. I haven't made any changes or updates that might interfere with Source. Can anyone help?!
Hey Guys, Just Got A Quick One This Time. I'm Running iCam Source 2.2.3 And App Version 2.0.1 On My 3GS Right Now. Everything Is Working Flawlessly I Will Be Upgrading To The iPhone 4S And Wanted To Know If My Current Source And App Are Compatible With iOS5 And If I Should Anticipate Any Problems. Before My Big Leap, I Thought I'd Run It By The Best Tech Support In The Business Thanks Guys, As Always A Pleasure And An Honor!
First Let Me Say That I've Been Using iCam For Over A Year Now And It Is By Far The Best App Out There. Your Tech Support Is Priceless And Has, In The Past, ALWAYS Corrected My Problems. I'm Hoping For Another Solution This Time So Here's My Problem: I've Been Running iCam Source 2.2.3 On An XP PC And App 2.0.1 On An iPhone 3GS. A Few Days Ago, That PC Fried, Forcing Me To Buy A New System. I Purchased One With Windows 7 (Which I'm Not Too Familiar With) And After Plugging My Cameras (3 Logitech QuickCam S5500) In, One By One So The Drivers Were Identified, I Loaded iCam Source 2.2.3 Again. The First Day, Every Thing Was Fine, I Was Able To See All 3 Through Edge/3G/WiFi. Over The Last Few Days, Edge/3G Have Become Flaky. I'll Open The App And Only 2 Cameras Will Come Through, Refresh, And I'll Get The "Broker Connection Error", Refresh Again, I'll Get "No Internet Connection Detected" Error (When I Have Full Bars On 3G), Refresh Yet Again, And All My Cameras Come Up And Stream Just Fine. Go Back Minutes Later And I Get The "Source Connection Error", Refresh, And 2 Cameras Show Up, Refresh Again, All 3 Show Up. I'm Not Sure What's Causing This. Is It Maybe A Security Setting In Windows 7 I'm Not Familiar With? I Have The "Auto-Config Router" Button Checked And It Shows Success, Just As It Did Before. Since It's A New PC, I Amended The New IP Address In My Router For The Port Range To Allow iCam. My Connection To iCam Source Works Just Fine On A WiFi Network, Mine Or Elsewhere. On A Side Note, When I Pull Up iCam On 3G/Edge, It Takes A Lot Longer Then Usual To Load. My First Thought Was Tower Issues With AT&T. Further Trouble Shooting Proved That Other Web-Based Apps And Some Pages Were Taking A Lot Longer To Load As Well. I Contacted AT&T Support Who Gave Me No Immediate Explanation, But Said They Would Look Into It Within The Next 48 Hours. I'm Hoping That Is The Problem And That It Will Correct Itself, But Would Very Much Appreciate Any Help Or Advice From A Forum I Have Had Such Great Success From In The Past. Please Let Me Know If There Is Anything I Have Overlooked Or Anything I Can Do To Fix This Problem. Thank You Very Much For Your Time And Expertise, As Always!
Hi, I have an iPhone 3GS running version 4.3.1, the version of iCam Source I'm running is the one just before this new update and I have not updated the app to the newest version. I've had problems in the past after upgrading either source or the app so my question is, if my setup is running just fine now, should I ignore the new updates. After reading through others posting problems I am hesitant to install these newer versions as iCam is my heaviest used app and apart of my home security. Thank you for your time.
