Maccam comes with a file called maccam.component. You must copy that file to /Libraries/Quicktime which is on your main hard disk. This enables the camera to function with quicktime and other software on the Mac besides Maccam.

It worked for me. Best of luck.
1st You download Webcam Driver.
Webcam install
After this install the Webcam driver in the system.

Select the Unknown Device or printer device where yellow Question Marks sign on it.
Right click on it and uninstall it.
After this go to the top of the device manager and click on scan for hardware changes.
Driver installation Wizard start.
Brows Your Driver from the Hard Disk and click on next.

Also send this to your family
and friends so they have their computer setup properly.
Web Camera’s have to be
setup on the program they are to be used with.
Just installing the camera on your computer does not set it up to
broadcast on messengers or Skype.
Each program has Options that have to be setup in order for
the Audio and Video to function properly.
Skype Setup:
After downloading and installing Skype (http://www.skype.com/intl/en-gb/download/skype/windows/beta/downloading/)
set it up as follows:
The camera and audio should function properly. Your friends and Family will now be able to
see and her to you.
Hope this helps. Bud
