I have had my MacBookpro 17'' for a long time now and is really happy with it. but one day my iSight stopped working and cannot be found in the connected hardware.
I was think it might just be a loss connection or that the camera in the screen that is broken have you heard about it before and do you maybe have an solution?
Is dit een goede vraag?

The software that Apple uses to check the camera is iChatAV. If that does not see the camera, then the camera connector should be checked.
Check to see if the built-in iSight camera appears using "/Applications" > "Utilities" > "System Profiler.app"
Also try booting in Safe mode by holding down the Shift key then reboot normally.

No the Isight do not appear in the System Profiler

I got the same problem on my system and there 3 cause to this as far as I know:
* Defect cable that goes from main board to camera/inverter board.
* Defect camera inverter board
* Defect camera
You will find used inverter/camera/cable here or/and on ebay from 30-50USD. Replacing the camera is a bit complicated so if you are not used to take this kind of hardware apart, call a friend :)
Good luck
