If your iSight and Flash don’t seem to be working well together youc an use TO_Gary advice to solve the issue.  It worked for MattyEss problem.

I’ve been feeling that frustration for weeks.

Here is what I did to resolve.
-Spotlight search for the word google.
-Show All results
change finder to File Name (not Contains)
Add ‘System Files – ARE INCLUDED’ to the search
In your results.. erase everything that is attached to google and / or google chrome products (leave the mail and text docs and google items in non-google folders (took me 5 minutes). delete All of it.

I re-installed Safari just to be safe and there – isight cam works on every website again.

I have having to do this leg work for these companies making so much money – my time is just as valued as theirs – stay outta my computer!!!!

Curious how you can share your screen on iChat AV?

It might be an easy answer if you listen to Ralph. “Hi,

Go to the Video menu in iChat and enable the Screen Sharing there.
You do not have to have Screen Sharing in System Preferences >Sharing enabled. (they both use the Apple Remote Desktop engine but that is as far as it goes)

If the Buddy also has not Set Screen Sharing in iChat you tend not to be able to Share your screen even though you are the one instigating.

If the person is set to Screen Share in iChat at their end you tend to be able to “override” your Non setting and it will work.
(in effect there are levels of Permissions to the iChat Screen Sharing and you have to have it turned On for full functionality)”
