Catalina – How to Use Old Logitech Quickcam Express

I have an old Logitech Quickcam Express – the one that looks like this:

Logitech Quickcam Express

I have a 2018 MacBook Pro running Catalina, and I'd like (if possible) to use the webcam with it. If I plug it in, I can see it in System Information:

…but I can't use it in Photo Booth nor in Google Meets in Chrome (which is where I'd actually like to use it). Is there anything I can do so that I can use the webcam with my Mac?

Best Answer

Not trying to be flippant, but I haven't seen that camera since the waning years of the 20th century. (It was released in 1999, BTW.) According to this FAQ page at Logitech, it is unsupported 'on the Macintosh platform'. It will not work on a USB3 port, and there are no macOS drivers. We use a number of these Logitech webcams in classrooms and they are amazingly good.
