Why am I getting an ichat error message?

I have had my fantastic brand new black macbook for 2 days, and have been receiving random error messages on ichat. I used to get this message on my old mac when i tried to transfer a file, and then send a message before it was done transferring. However, now it comes randomly. Anyone know why
An AIM service error occurred.
Error: Serv:RequestTimeout
is it my internet connection or something with my computer?
Thanks

Hi
Try logging on to AIM on port 443 rather than port 5190.
Go to IChat in the menu bar > Preferences > Accounts.
Log out of AIM and then use the Server Settings tab
Set the port to 443.
Log back in again.

    Why am I getting the following error message? "You can’t open the application “Microsoft Word” because PowerPC applications are no longer supported."  I never used to have a proble!

    Only Office for Mac 2008 and 2011 will run on Mavericks. Microsoft support for the former package ended in April 2013. If you do not want to spend the money, you might download and try the donation-ware (free) LibreOffice Suite. No ribbon bar crap. Supports about any document created on Windows.

  • Why do I get a "script error" message from Adobe flash player?  It is installed as a part of my browser.IE 11

    Why do I get a "script error"  from flash player when it is not installed separately?  It is part of my browser--IE 11

    Same error message, I disabled tab mix and made sure I only have the newest version of Java, restarted firefox, now it seems to be fine no error yet on Pogo games or pictures upload to ebay which were the biggest problems besides hanging. I had also had disabled AVG secure search yesterday but that did not solve the issue. Now I will try to add back in AVG search...I have very few adds ons, also the note embedded about re- installing a toolbar went away, my old one did not work with FF4, so I installed Yahoo toolbar but the message still did not go away until I applied this fix. Hopes this helps someone..

  • Why am I getting the following error message when printing, "(Acrobat.exe) The program can't start because x2utilHH.dll is missing from your computer.  Try re-installing the program to fix this problem.?"

    After re-installing and applying all available updates, I am not able to get this error message to go away. It comes up every time we try to print and we have to close the box about 10 times before we finally get to the printing dialog box.

    Have a look at this Microsoft forum:  Splwow64.exe error

  • Why do i get Flash Player Error message from my CD projector disk?

    When I try and play a the projector CD I get an Adobe Flash Palyer message stating that "10.1r52 has a problem".  It plays on most systems but a few laptop systems generate this error message.  The laptops are new Dell's.  Is there an update to Catalyst that I need, or is there a setting I am missing when I generate the projector?

    The error tells me either the media is bad or the optical drive is bad. Since you have tried several brands this points more in the direction of the optical drive.
    I would suggest that you get one the optical drive cleaning disk and try that.
    If that doesn't improve things it sounds like replacement is in order.
    Is you MBP still under warranty?

  • Why am I getting an "Activation Error" message in PSE 10?  Bug in program??

    A little over 6 months ago, my desktop bit the dust.  I set up a new laptop, and loaded PSE 10 onto it.  I have been using it since then.  Today, I downloaded some photos from my SD card into PSE 10, worked fine.  I then opened Editor, and the screen popped up with a big box saying "Activation Limit reached for Photoshop Elements 10."  It also says "This serial number has already been activated on two computers".  Well, that is probably true ... the desktop that bit the dust, and the one I'm on now where the message showed up.  I "re-tried" and it repeated the message.  It tells me that if I click on "Remind me later", my software will stop working in 30 days.
    What the hell is going on here?  If Adobe allows activation on two computers, then I shouldn't have a problem because this did NOT happen because I'm trying to install anything ... I only tried to open Editor on the laptop I've been using for over 6 months!  If it doesn't allow 2 computers, what do I do?  I can't "de-activate" the one on my desktop since that computer is toast.  But if that is the case, why is this just showing up NOW?  It should have happened earlier, no?
    I think there is some sort of bug in PSE 10 that hasn't been addressed ... or hasn't been addressed on my system.  How do I resolve this?  If it matters, I am using Windows 7, 64 bit, 8 GB RAM,

    It's just part of the wonderful world of activation. Just go here:

  • Why am I getting an HDCP error message and what do I do about it?

    Purchased an HD episode of Firefly, tried to play it before it was done downloading, and got a message that said:
    This movie can be played only on displays that support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection).
    I thought it might be a problem with the download not being completed, but now it's finished, and it still won't play.
    Here's what I have to say about this:
    1) Why in the **** didn't it say anything about this BEFORE the purchase went through? Seriously, Apple!
    2) I've downloaded and played HD from the iTunes store before. Why am I only having this problem now?
    3) What do I do about it?

  • Why am I getting the same error message after replacing with a new cartridge?

    I have replaced the cartridge with two different new HP cartridges, but the message continues to say that cartridge is empty. In addition, it won't even allow me to print in black only.  Any suggestions?

    Please read this post then provide some details. What printer model? What operating system? How is the printer connected - USB, wired LAN, Wireless LAN, bluetooth?
    Are you using refilled/reman cartridges?  These usually have not been reset to show proper ink levels.  In this case contact your supplier or use genuine HP cartridges.

  • Why did I get a TLS error message with Firefox but was successful when switching to Internet Explorer?

    I was making an online transaction, pressed "go" (or its equivalent) and received TLS connection failed message.
    I switched to Internet Explorer and "go" went ok first time.

    The website may try to fallback to TLS 1.0 in a way that is no longer allowed in current releases or may be using a deprecated cipher suite.
    You can open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location/address bar and use its search bar to locate this pref:
    *security.tls.insecure_fallback_hosts
    You can double-click the line to modify the pref and add the full domain (TEXT) to this pref.
    If there are already websites (domains) in this list then add a comma and the new domain (no spaces).
    You should only see domains separated by a comma in the value column.
    If this helps then you can contact this website and ask them to look into this.

  • Why do I get the following error message when trying to use Report Builder in sql server 2012?

    sukai

    Hi sukai,
    The issue is due to one or more of the files listed in the application manifest cannot be found on the server. We can upload all the deployment’s dependents files, and try again. And frequently this means that the application is somehow corrupted, or that
    the ClickOnce store is corrupted. Please refer to the following thread to fix the issue.
