Hi,
You can't.
Messages - the replacement for iChat in Mountain Lion and beyond will  do Screen Sharing  but only to the accounts it did in iChat 5 and 6  (actually it includes iChat 4 as well)
That is to say in earlier version of iChat you could login to AIM and Jabber servers as well as enabling the Bonjour option to chat on your LAN.
All these will do Video and Audio only chats which in turn means they will Screen Share.
At iChat 6 an Yahoo option was added but it can only Text chat (it can't even send Files or Pics)
This means only the Internet able accounts that login in to AIM or to a Jabber server  can Video and therefore Screen Share.
The iMessages account will Invoke FaceTime if you use the Video icon during text chat.  (I.e. it is not Video inside the app like the AIM or Jabber accounts can do)
NOTE.
AIM includes Apple Issued Apple ID as Valid AIM Screen Names.
Google Mail ID s can be used and Google Talk IDs with Messages as they run a Jabber server.
Facebook allow you to create a Chat ID (Facebook Chat ID) which is also a Jabber server.

  • Can I use 3G in another countries if I purchase a iPad 3G in America

    Can I use 3G in another countries if I purchase a iPad 3G in America

    Not sure why you are asking but yes, of course you can use the cellular 3G connection abroad.
    If you are living in the US and plan to use the iPad overseas, then it will cost you. Be sure to understand your operator's roaming policy and costs.
    If on the other hand you are living overseas and plan to buy an iPad in the US and use it overseas with a GSM operator in your home territory, then again, yes it will work. But not that the warranty will NOT be valid. If anything goes wrong, you will have to physically transport the iPad to the US for any warranty claim.

  • When I try to eject my ipod after sync I get the following message:"The iPod cannot be restored because it contains files that are in use by another application.". I tried to restore but it doesn't work and I get the same message

    When I try to eject my ipod after sync I get the following message:The iPod cannot be restored because it contains files that are in use by another application.". I tried to restore but it doesn't work and I get the same message

    Go to your computer's System Tray and try ejecting.  If you can't eject, there is an application that is trying to access your iPod.
    Go to http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896653.aspx and download ProcessExplorer.
    Go to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555665 and follow the instructions under Resolution.
    Note that this is a good, general process any time you can't access any file.
    In my case an update to RealPlayer installed a program called RecordingManager that was accessing my iPod.

    Hello ac4320a,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    To reinstall any application which came with your Mac, you will need to reinstall OS X.

  • How can I delete the recent calls list in FaceTime?

    How can I delete the recent calls list in FaceTime of my Mac?

    Hello muchaim,
    After reviewing your post, it sounds like you want to delete the recent call list. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
    FaceTime for Mac (Yosemite): Make and receive FaceTime calls
    FaceTime keeps a list of the most recent calls you made, received, or declined, with the most recent call at the top. To return a call, click the Video button  or the Audio button . To remove a call, select it and press Delete.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • How can we take the cursor to a different sub-screen from the BADI?

    Hi,
    We have to do some validation on Header, Operation and Relationship of any work order (IW31, IW32). We have checked that validations can be done at BADI WORKORDER_UPDATE in the method u2018AT_SAVEu2019.  But user wants us to take the Cursor back to the field and screen due to which the error is coming. How can we take the cursor to a different sub-screen from the BADI?
    Thanks in Advance,

    You 'ran out of room' because you tried to put your entire question into what is the 'Topic line' of the post.
    This is a fairly common error, as a scan of the topic list will show, and likely due to a design flaw in the layout of the composition page.
    Most posters who make this error do so on their first post, and are able to avoid a similar misstep on their second and subsequent questions.

  • Accidentally deleted an App Store app.  how can I get the icon back on my home screen?  when I search for it in the App Store it comes up 'open'. thanks.

    accidently deleted an app Store app.  how can I get the icon back on my home screen?  in the app store it comes up 'open' instead of install.

    What happens if you tap on open?
    Remember, if you ever want to find an app quickly, you can slide all the way to the left (iOS 6 and lower) or pull down (iOS 7 and later) to get to an app.
    If you know for certain that you have deleated the app, please try restarting your phone. There are many ways to do this, but the safest way would be to hold down the power button and then slide to power down.
    Once powered down, restart and try to find the icon on your screen. If you still can't find it, go into the App Store and then find the app you were trying to access. It should have an iCloud download symbol since you've purchased it before, rather than saying "install."

  • I'm trying to use a madcatz controller on the mac but it turns on for 2 seconds and turns off. the system profiler picks it up as a xbox 360 gamepad but says its not been configured. how can i allow my self use this with my games.

    i'm trying to use a madcatz controller on the mac but it turns on for 2 seconds and turns off. the system profiler picks it up as a xbox 360 gamepad but says its not been configured. how can i allow my self use this with my games!

    I have exactly the same problem.
    I'm a little peed-off with Microsoft on this. The original wireless controller I have doesn't work either since the cable I'm using is 'just' the charge and play cable, so a direct connection to my Mac won't work with this cable. It's a cable for god's sake. Why on EARTH put any limitations on this!?!?
    Next I learn I need an additional USB wireless receiver from Microsoft to get my original 360 controller to talk to my Mac. As I certainly don't want to fork any more microsoft dollars on this, this is not an option.
    Next I think, yes! I have a MadCatz 360 wired USB controller. This should surely do the trick just plugging it in and the way I go. But oh no, for some reason I plug my MadCatz Xbox360 controller in, it flashes a few times then switches off and can't be turned on again.
    The System Profiles recognizes it as a MadCatz 360 device controller but that is about it, but the ontroller software I download for the System Prefs (360Controller, USBOverdrive etc) don't even recognize the controller as being plugged in.
    What the **** Is The Microsoft Deal with all of this!?!?
    PS: Oh, and I forgot to mention, there are No drivers for device 4716 that I can find on the MadCatz website, or am I going blind?
    If anyone has a link, it would be appreciated.

  • How can I quickly toggle through all of my open files in an application?

    How can I quickly toggle through all of my open files in an application? For instance, if I want to bounce back and forth between three documents that I have open in Microsoft Word?

    You use a combination of OS X Spaces with Exposé to be able to accomplish this.
    Or in your case,  look at using Mission Control

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    Apparently there is no HP software support for the HP 3050 fax or scan functions with OS X 'Lion' 10.7:

    http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?&objectID=c0292511 4
    Alternatives?
    1) Run a Windows client on the Mac using Boot Camp or one of the available virtualization programs like Parallels, VMware Fusion, and others so you can run the latest Windows print/fax/scan driver.
    2) If your Mac hardware supports an older OS X version, downgrade to one (Snow Leopard?) that still had support for print, fax and scan.
    3) Buy a newer printer. A 2007 model is 5+ years old, and should now be fully depreciated in a business.

    It is not possible to create a new iCloud account using a Windows machine. You must create the account using a Mac (10.7.5 or more) or an IOS device (iPhone etc). Once that is done you can sign into and use the account on your Windows machine.

  • How can I set up Cinema Display as a main screen and leave my macbook pro as a second screen instead?

    How can I set up Cinema Display as a main screen and leave my macbook pro as a second screen instead?

    I learned that the Dock is positioned at the chosen edge of whatever Display is positioned farthest to that side.  E.g. for the Dock to be positioned on the right side of the Cinema Display (instead of the right side of the MacBook), the Cinema Display must be oriented (by dragging) to the right of the MacBook monitor on the "Arrangement" tab of the Displays Preference Panel.

    The hotmail address i use for my apple ID was hacked and i no longer have access to it, this is stopping me from accessing any of my icloud or itunes. how can i fix this?

    Thanks, I appreciate the help.  I think this is one of the problems Apple is creating by changing the OS so often. I had fomer colleagues at [a major aerospace contractor] who told me that so many original files were ultimately lost because of the deadly change in the "Save As" operation that they are now afraid of every OS update. Apple has badly damaged their support base with that very prominent company (they won't update now until they've fully examined and understand changes in the pre-conditioned nature of OS computer functions), and they are a whole lot less enthaled with Mac-related equipment/software. Can't blame them, I too used orginal files that way (as easy-to-use templates), and lost some important files before I realized what was happening (to late to revert). Companies should not have to retrain employees each time an OS gets an update, it's can be very expensive several different ways. They learned a painful lesson with that one. And because I'm now retired and don't use multiple devices, I need iCloud like I need a hole in the head... but I'm told there's no way to keep Apple out of my computer. Fortunately, because of major problems when initially installing Mountain Lion, one hold-over of the hardware/software damage I experienced was that iCloud can no longer access my computer even though everything else is working fine again. That was the only "good luck" I had as a result of that expensive nightmare.
