iCam Support / Logitech c615 and Mac running Mountain Lion
« on: August 25, 2012, 04:09:53 PM »
I thought I'd finally found the answer to my webcam woes. Bought a Logitech C615 that claims to be for Mac/PC. My Mac is running Mountain Lion (10.8) and apparently that isn't going to work with this contraption. From searching the web I've seen that it does work with 10.6. Not going to help me there.

I had already given up my dream of having a wireless webcam that gives me good (or at least decent) sound and opted for a USB one with a usb extender, but now I can't even get a picture to show up. Frustrating!

Guess I'm back to just lugging my laptop around when I want to view iCam from a different room.

Grrrrrr!

Anyone else having this issue or, better yet, anyone solve this issue?

Network / IP Camera Compatibility / Yet one more question about sound/iCam
« on: August 20, 2012, 05:36:24 PM »
I'm embarrassed to ask this, because I've read posts all over the web and, frankly, I'm becoming more confused by the minute (definite newbie when it comes to configuring stuff).

I have iCam on my MacBook (running Mountain Lion - just downloaded your update for that) and my desktop Mac (running Tiger 10.4.11) Currently, I'm using the iSight cameras in both and love the program (have used it for over a year now to watch my dogs while I'm at work). The laptop has sound when I log in...dogs barking like crazy, etc. The desktop has NEVER transmitted sound, no matter what I try. Sound is turned up in the blasted thing. Drives me nuts trying to figure it out.

The more important question for me right now is that pesky IP wireless camera for Mac question. I'm leaning toward the Foscam or Airlink, but when you say "no sound" for them does that mean no "two way sound" even though the Foscam, at least, is rigged for it or do you mean absolutely NO SOUND...won't know if doggies are barking and whining at all.  That would be the deal breaker for me.

I anticipate hours of set up, from all I've read, and it terrifies me, but I need a wireless webcam for the second floor of my house. I've also read things about lots of static on wireless webcams, which confuses me if it's not supposed to give me sound.

*sigh*  I waited until I almost absolutely need it, of course, so any reply would be greatly appreciated!
