My green light next to my imac camera is always on. I saw a bunch of tips on how to shut it off with a macbook but none for an imac. Does anyone know what is causing this and how to stop it? I'm assuming nothing bad is happening to my imac unless I'm being spied on.....

Do you have garage band on?
 
Yeah I notice on my mini that when garage band is on the light on my iSight camera is on. I think that's because of the mic though.
 
Now the light is still off and the camera doesn't work. I was planning on buying a new imac soon.....
