Question: When will support be added for viewing on Mac desktop browsers other than Safari - specifically Firefox & Chrome?
Document: In short: Fake reviews. Doesn't work on Mac Chrome/Firefox. Unreliable. Poor English support. Avoid!This camera does NOT support Chrome, or Firefox, on a Mac. The setup took over an hour. When it finally started working with Safari (after finding the plugin installation instructions buried away in another user's forum post), we updated the firmware as suggested, via Ethernet. This bricked the camera to the extent even the factory reset button doesn't work.
The device was assigned static as well as dynamic IP and with different ports combinations.The other issue I had was the poor support for OS X and non IE browsers. The software that is shipped on the CD with the product is not compatible with newer version (doesn't work on Mavericks and Snow Leopard). A third party app is required to configure it on a Mac.I have two other IP cams (D-link and vuezone) and both work very well.
This is my third Foscam security camera. The other two have been quite reliable for about two years, which influenced my decision to buy this one. Setting up is a bit tricky, especially in that an extension plug-in (IPCam) needs to be added on Chrome, but with that done, my install went pretty smoothly.
I found that the best part about Foscam was the IT dept. Alfred West spent an hour helping me sync both cameras. The issue turned out to be the browser I now use Chrome and Firefox with no problems. Thanks Amazon, Thanks foscam and most importantly thanks Alfred West of Foscam
These cameras work fine. They do what they are supposed to. I didn't use the software the cameras came with because I don't like installing software on my computers if I don't have to and I am comfortable with networking so I use the camera's IP address to login with a browser.I use Linux a lot and this particular camera doesn't work with Linux. The browser plugins don't work even when you manually install them. I tried Chrome, Chromium and Firefox when using Linux; nothing works.
The camera itself works fine. It kinda sucks that in Mac it only works in Safari but it's not a deal breaker.I have an old Macbook Pro running 10.7.5 and I can't see the video. It just shows up white. The controls and everything else works.Either way, it works on newer computers/OS and with apps.My big problem is that I can't connect to my wireless.
I love this camera. It was easy to set-up for viewing on my desktop. I admit I had a couple of issues with the remote viewing but once I figured it out it now works great. I use TinyCam Pro on my Android phone and it is wonderful. The pictures are clear in color and the night shots are extremely impressive. In total darkness you can see everything, Of course the pictures in total darkness are in black and white but very sharp.
Calvin from product support very helpful when the plug- in did not upgrade on the most current firmware installation. Not really a Foscam issue but IE security so used Firefox to upgrade the plug-in.Just took a minute with TeamviewerGreat camera and very clear picture
For example it says that active x must be added as an initial step. That has no bearing on what really needs to be done to get the camera to allow the video using Internet Explorer. This and other parts of the setup explained in the guide are a mystery! But as long as the telephone support is out there this is a great, high def camera.
Calvin from support was incredibly helpful in helping me set up the camera so I can use it on my IPad, IPhone, Mac and PC. I am very happy with the service and product.
Answer: As of 12/24/2014, the Foscam camera can't be controlled (or viewed) through Chrome. This is because Google Chrome will not allow installation of CRX files (extensions) from any source other than the Chrome Store (for your protection). Until recently, you could get around this by going into the "developer" mode in Chrome, but Google apparently "fixed" that. I don't know about Firefox, and of course, it works fine with IE.
