    Make sure you download and set up the encoder (if you have the internet speed/processor power for it). There are super easy step by step instructions in the support section when you are logged in. Also, I find if I have my regular default cam program open to check angels/lighting SM won't work for me as my camera is "already being used."

    When you are logged in and about to start camming, there is a drop down menu above your video feed. In the dropdown you can select your camera or the encoder.

    Mac? = iSight disabler. Otherwise, it should work.

    try going to your control settings under start menu and device manager. Under imaging devices, there should be two. One is your laptops cam and the other is the logitech. right click on your lapcam cam and click disable. I always have to do this before I cam its so annoying !! but thats how i switch it over.

    Hello, I saw that y'all have a Logitech 9000 and was wondering can this cam stand on it's own or does it have to b clip to the pc?

    The 9000 can stand on its own with the little clip on the bottom. Also, make sure that the drivers installed correctly. Sometimes deleting the drivers and programs associated with the camera, rebooting the computer, and reinstalling can help. Logitech software is weird sometimes.

    You can can create a very sturdy base for your 9000 using a narrow-necked bottle and a rubber band. Let me know if you need me to include a pic for clarification.

    I have a old webcam now and after looking decided to get the Logitech c920 and a tripod to go with it. But thank you so much for all the responds and Foxybrown I hope you got yours to work I was so lost when I started on mfc and getting mine to work and the encoder ugh but after awhile I got it working.
