iCamSource won't open - Solved

[Judmar]

Restarted everything and found the little icon!  Sorry to be a bother!
I downloaded iCamSource on my iMac and used it to configure my iPhone and iPad using ipCam to use as webcams in my home.  All worked well (except no sound... another topic).  I closed the program to get some lunch.  Came back and it won't open.  I read on forum ...
"It sounds like the iCamSource window may be hidden. When you close the iCamSource window, the iCamSource program still runs in the background. If the iCamSource window is hidden, there will be a small iCamSource icon in the Menubar(Mac) or System Tray (Windows). The icon is a small version of the iCam icon (camera lens). From this icon, you can stop, start, or quit iCamSource. If you select "Preferences" it will display the iCamSource window."

I don't even have the "small icon" on my MenuBar or anywhere on my desktop.  It will not open from finder either.  I must shut down and reboot my whole computer to get it to open.  There must be a better way!

If iCamSource is crashing, there should be crash logs.

The crash logs would be in:

/Users/<Your Username>/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/iCamSource_<date_time>.crash.log

or in:

/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/iCamSource_<date_time>.crash.log

If you are running Mac OS 10.6.3: they moved the crash logs to /Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports or /Users/<YourUsername>/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports

If you are running Lion: it hides the ~/Library directory for some reason. You can get to that directory by running Finder and then holding the Option key while clicking on the "Go" menu at the top of the screen. If you're holding down the Option key, "Library" will be one of the choices available. You should choose /Library/Logs/CrashReporter/iCamSource_<date_time>.crash.log. The crash logs should be there.

If you find crash logs, please send the most recent one to support@skjm.com. Also, please reference this forum post and your user name in your email.

[SKJM Support]

It seems that, on some Macs, the graphics drivers (which are used to do the image processing on the video stream) are very inefficient, which are resulting in these problems. Our developers are currently working on a fix. For more information please see our Forum Post here: http://skjm.com/forum/index.php?topic=6041.new;topicseen#new
