When I turn on the camera (with everything plugged in), there is only one green LED, instead of the green and red LEDs together as described in the manual. In addition, the CMUCam GUI isn't detecting my camera. Can someone tell me what's going on?

That happened to me too recently, I was able to get image fine, then we started calibrating it, had to unhook it for a while. And then I couldnt access it anymore

Same thing? I tried calibrating it, didn't get anything, unhooked it and checked out the manual, slapped myself for not clicking the "grab image" button, tried again, and spent the next hour afterwards frowning over this crazy problem.

I did turn off all the power in my robot before unplugging it, so I'm sure I didn't short out anything.

My program refuses to see the camera... maybe its my computer

Oh! Now it picks up the camera! And it doesn't grab a frame! And the camera stops again!

...this little devil is a real pain.
