How can I get the web cam going when using msn. I work in a remote site and it would be great to see the wife and kids when we chat using msn. WE chat on msn and she sends me the camera option but I cant see that option
You can't use your webcam with Microsoft's own MSN client, as they essentially stopped supporting the Mac version quite some time ago. Apparently, a new version (web-camera-capable) is to be released, but it hasn't yet appeared.
However, you could try
Mercury Messenger for Mac OS X which supports webcam use over MSN.
