iMovie & Photobooth not working??!!?

I swear my Macbook has a virus..and yes, Macs CAN get viruses. So I have a bunch of crap on my computer, like, lots of pictures and files and stuff, and I tried cleaning it up...but my iMovie and Photobooth suck!!

Photobooth: Open, try to take video, does the "1-2-3" thing, then stops and goes back to the picture of the camera in the little red circle. Nothing happens, no video recorded.

iMovie: I open it, try to record and press "Capture". Seems normal and u click "Ok" after choosing the name of where you want it recorded or whatever, andd then it goes "0:00:01" then stops and goes back to all 0's. Nothing happens, nothing recorded.

I NEEEEDDD my camera to work!! It might have something to do with the Built-In iSight, but PLEASSEE PLEASEEEE HELP!! WHAT DO I DO?!!!

THANKS!!

xx

    I suggest you scan your mac for viruses, download iAntivirus(free): http://www.iantivirus.com/

    And then scan your mac. If it has detected no viruses, something is wrong with your hardware.

    If you swear that your MB has a virus then install and use an AntiVirus. I guarantee you it won't fix the issue with Photobooth and iMovie tho AND it won't detect any virus on your Mac. ;)
