Why won't AIM detect my webcam?

Why doesn't my macbook detect my webcam?

  • I recently got a webcam and yesterday it was working fine, but today sites like chatroulette can't detect it, they only show the built-in sight option and for the sound they also show "unknown USB audio device" whereas yesterday it had the option with the webcam name in both camera and audio.

  • Answer:

    Make sure you plug in your external webcam prior to opening your browser, otherwise it won't recognize it.
