I am not what you would call very computer literate at the moment. I have an iMac OS X version 10.6.8 and need step by step instructions from someone on how to set up my iChat and camera so that I can chat with friends and see them. I am past the 90 day warranty and for Apple to walk me through it would cost $50.00 and the other online techs want $58.00. I live on Social Security and cannot afford this. I would greatly appreciate any help that anyone can give me. Thank you. [KSL6968@yahoo.com](mailto:KSL6968@yahoo.com) ---

It’s easy to find this information. I did a google search for “set up ichat” and this link on the Apple website was the first result: [http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2515](http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2515)
