Well that's good. Now the next question is whether or not the Windows Live Messenger interoperability will include webcam support? OAW

Its unlikely, if I remember rightly the MSN webcam functionality is provided by Logitech because of some rubbish promotion deal thing a few years ago.

Does anybody know where this latest yahoo messenger is keeping his libraries?

If you want a standard, you have Jabber. There is open standards based video in Jabber too, offered by Tipic.com. Problems: 1) It is windows only 2) Jabber nerd community hates th…

Well, I never really had a whine issue, but now that I have upgraded to 10.4.7, it has started, and is driving me insane. The machine is a Week 16 model, and I was under the impre…

Exchanging it won't do much. You will most likely get another whiner. I think it's the keyboard update that makes it much worse, which was included in 10.4.7. When I installed t…

Thanks, I appreciate your help. I would have thought that by now Apple would have fixed this issue, since my understanding is it is related to how the CPU is soldered to the mothe…

Here's a link to the Apple forums. Read the instructions in the second post. Follow the link and download the file for 10.4.6 named IOUSBFamily.kext 2.5.0 and install the file WI…

dahcar, you forgot the link... KraziKid, I'm not sure it has anything to do with the processor-I think it's more related to power management internally. In fact, it sounds like a…

It's the DC board making the whine. If it were the processor, then people that own the iMac or Mac mini would be complaining about it too.

The trick with the kext worked fine on 10.4.6, but I did it with 10.4.7 (you're meant to download the 2.4 version, not the 2.5) and my built in isight stopped working, so it's a no…

No such whine from my machine. If you're convinced its a pin on the processor, then no amount of software will fix it. Send it in for a motherboard swap.
