How to Use an External Camera with Photo Booth

Disconnect your external camera if it's already connected to your Mac. If your webcam came with any driver software on a disk or from a website, install it before proceeding. Open Photo Booth and then reconnect your external camera.
Click Photo Booth's Camera option on the menu bar and select your external camera's name to display its video feed in the main program window.
Click the 'Effects' button if you want to select an effect before you snap a picture or record a video in Photo Booth. The video pane will display nine thumbnails showing your webcam feed with different effects applied, including distortion effects, color effects, customized backgrounds and animated items. Click the right-arrow button on the screen to view additional pages of effects. After you find the effect you want to apply, click it to return to the full-size video stream.
Click one of the three square icons near the bottom left corner of the video preview. Click the first icon to make a series of four consecutive images, the second icon to take a single picture or the third icon to record a video.
Click the red camera icon to automatically take one or four pictures, or to start recording a video. If you are recording a video, click the red camera icon again after you finish recording.

How to Stream Cox Cable on My iPad

Connect your set-top box to the video source. The device should have enough connections on the back to allow you to hook up to three different video sources at once. This means you can hook your Cox cable connection directly into the back of the box's coaxial inputs. This will run the video feed to your TV through the device. You will also need to connect the box to your television inputs.
Hook up the box to an Internet connection. If your Internet router is close by, you can simply connect an Ethernet cord to the back of the box. If you do not have a router nearby, you can get a device that makes your electrical outlets into an Internet connection. Once you plug the box into the wall outlet, it will automatically have an Internet connection also.
Download the appropriate app for your iPad from the App Store. For example, if you use a Slingbox for this process, you will need to download an app called SlingPlayer. You will need to enter your iTunes password into the iPad to allow the download. Wait for a few seconds to allow the download to finish, and then open it.
Watch your television through the app on your iPad. You can completely control your television through the app. It will allow you to change channels and even use your DVR through the iPad controls.
