A mac trying to talk to a PC - Please HELP.

Mac is set up with ISIGHT/ICHAT
PC is set up with LOGICTECH Quickcam Fusion/AOL Instant messenger.
So we can text message and we can even do an audio chat. But when it comes to Video it does not go through. When I(the mac) invite the PC, the PC sees the invitation and will accept. My window will even say that it has started the video chat but I cant see them, only myself.
When they invite me I never get the invitation and they just sit on there side.
Any ideas. Please help
thanks jack

    after cleaning my mac it opens and shuts down again please help!!!

    I opened the cover (there where the battery is) and I cleaned the dust gently with a dry napkin ...remove the battery and placed it again ...closed the cover and when i turn on my macbook bro now it shows the Apple logo and after some seconds it just shuts down (i have OSX 10.9 Mavericks)....
    I tried to boot in safe mode, also tried to repair it and even re-install Mavericks and so on, but I could not fix it. I did a hardware test and the no problems occurred.

    I'm not seeing the Silverlight plugin in your More system details list, so Firefox doesn't find it if you have it.
    I assume that you also do not see it in Tools > Add-ons > Plugins ?

  • I bought the ilife '11 iphoto upgrade.  It was supposed to update my library.  It has been 2 days and it is still loading. I have tried restarting with no change. Please help!

    I bought the ilife '11 iphoto upgrade.  It was supposed to update my library.  It has been 2 days and it is still loading. I have tried restarting with no change. Please help!

    Make a back up now.
    Most Simple Back Up
    Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
    Slightly more complex:
    Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically. Examples of such apps: Chronosync or DejaVu . But are many others. Search on MacUpdate
    Then go on to Option 2

  • Fan speed problem Power Mac G5 Dual 1.8 GHz PowerPC - please help

    Please HELP, I have a fan speed problem with my Power Mac G5 Dual 1.8 GHz PowerPC
    This is a NOT an Intel machine. I am running Mac OS X v10.5.8
    Power Mac G5 - PowerMac 7,2 - Power PC 970 (2.2) - 1.8 GHz with 2 CPUs - L2 Cache (per CPU) 512 KB - Memory 8 GB - Bus Speed 900 MHz - Boot ROM version 5.1.5b1
    I have included below Links to download a sound file (.m4a) that I recorded of the fan speed problem and both a .pdf and .spx files of my system profile.
    download sound file
    http://homepage.mac.com/rep3/filechute/myG5dualsFans.m4a
    down load .spx file of my system preferences
    http://homepage.mac.com/rep3/filechute/systemProfileREP3-G5dual.spx
    down load .pdf file of my system preferences
    http://homepage.mac.com/rep3/filechute/systemProfileREP3-G5dual.pdf
    When did the fan problem start?
    After I replaced the mother board on the computer.
    Why did I replace the mother board?
    Because the experts at apple agreed with my diagnosis that the major crash problems & kernel panics must have some thing to do with a logic board gone bad. They would not work on it, because this Power Mac G5 dual 1.8 GHz machine is now a legacy model.
    What I have done to attempt to fix my fan speed problem? yes I checked the obvious things, here is a list:
    1) yes I checked to be sure that the new mother board was the same part number as the original one, and that all things that were unplugged from the old mother board - were actually plugged into the new mother board.
    2) all the fans work, I can see them spinning if I use a flashlight and look at them (cover on and off to get at some of them)
    3) check all RAM to make sure: a) it was installed properly b) that the RAM worked using TechTool Pro c) even started the machine with only the original RAM that came with it.
    4) I installed a Temperature monitor - to see if there was something reading as very hot inside that was causing the machine to continually run the fans at a high speed. No, no heat issues that I can see. Here are the reading from the sensors in degrees fahrenheit, 2009-10-11 16:11:01 -0500
    CPU A Die Temperature: 75.7℉
    CPU B Die Temperature: 81.5℉
    Drive Bay: 68.9℉
    Main Logic Board Air Inlet: 64.8℉
    Main Logic Board Ambient: 73.6℉
    Main Logic Board Backside: 76.3℉
    Memory Controller Heatsink: 93.2℉
    Processor Card A Ambient: 77.5℉
    Processor Card B Ambient: 77.0℉
    5) zapped the PRAM
    6) followed the SMU reset instructions for
    Power Mac G5 (Late 2004)
    To reset the SMU on a Power Mac G5 (Late 2004) computer, simply do the following:
    • Turn off the computer by selecting Shut Down from the Apple menu or by holding the power button until the computer turns off.
    • Remove the power cord from the computer.
    • Wait two minutes.
    • Plug in the power cord.
    • Turn on the computer.
    7) followed the SMU reset instructions:
    Resetting the Cuda/PMU
    How to reset the PMU:
    • If the computer is on, turn it off.
    • Disconnect ALL cables from the computer, including peripherals and power.
    • If possible, move the computer to a place where you are not standing on carpet.
    • Open the case and ground yourself by touching part of the metal frame inside the computer.
    • Find the Cuda or PMU button
    • Press the Cuda or PMU button ONCE. Do not press the button more than once before starting the computer up again.
    • Wait 10 seconds, then reconnect the cables you removed in step 2 and turn the computer on.
    • If the computer still does not respond after resetting the PMU, the computer may require service from an Apple Authorized Service Provider.
    8) ran disk utilities, repaired permissions
    9) found a setting in the system preferences that a chat room person suggested had something to do with fan speed. In Energy Saver, under options, processor performance was set to highest, I set it to automatic - this did not change anything that I could tell - BTW I checked my other G5 (a single processor that works fine) that is the setting that that it is set to, and it is nice and quiet.
    10) restarted the machine, ..
    11) found a Fan Control System Update - but it did not install when I tryed to install it -
    12) booted from OSX install disk and ran that disk utility
    13) used OnyX to fix disk permissions, clear caches and temp items
    Nope - still have the same high speed fan problem. ... PLEASE HELP!!
    I have been reading in the MacInTouch reader reports - found this: some one said to use this - thermal re-calibration using the Apple Authorized Service Providers' disk - but that's not available, at least I can not find it - anyone? have an answer to finding this - or can do it for me? I am in Chicago.

    The Genius at the downtown apple store said that because it's a "legacy machine" they would not work on it, .. so should I push them?
    Well, I personally think that's ridiculous, I'd Push them, I'd call AppleCare & talk up the chain if need be... there the ones that have or should have that Disc... man o man... Personally I'll never visit an Apple Store again in my lifetime, maybe try an independent AASP if none of that helps!..

    Man-o-man, pop my cork before I explode on that one, if I had anything to do with it I'd close that store.

    I disagree, hard drives are a mechanical moving device- heating and cooling, facing power surges. I've installed many versions of Mavericks but never had a problem but I am willing to spend an extra 5 minutes cleaning up the hard drive.
    How many versions of Mavericks has there been? I have installed one. The only one I have ever seen. Then updated it twice. And never used Crapware like YASU or CleanMyMac or MacKeeper etc etc and have never had an issue. And i certainly would never recommend a program that even the developers say
    "In the testing I’ve done using Yasu on Mavericks, it has performed well, so I believe it’s okay to use Yasu on Mac OS 10.9.x. Of course, I have to provide the disclaimer that I can’t guarantee 100% compatibility… If you decide to use Yasu on Mavericks, you’re doing it at your own risk."

  • Flash Player 10.3 will not work in Safari on Mac OS X 10.5.8. Please help!

    Mac OS X 10.5.8
    Safari 5.0.6
    Flash Player 10.3
    I'm not sure what the problem is. I could play youtube videos etc fine last time I was on the computer and now they just wont work and say 'plug-in missing'. But when I try to download the latest compatible version although the installation says that its successful I still can't play any videos and continue to get the 'upgrade flash player required' message.
    I've tried all of the troubleshooting from the Adobe website, and have searched the discussion boards following Chris Campbell's advice (plug-ins are enabled; checked library/Internet Plug-ins folder and moved all of the plugs out to the desktop with the exception of the Flash Player files; unchecked 'Open using Rosetta') from previous posts but still nothing.
    Please help, it's really annoying! What am I doing wrong?
    Cheers

  • Switching  from Windows  to Mac. Is it worth it? Please help!

    Hey everybody,
    I think I finally made my decision to switch from windows to Mac,..the I-book. G4 (not the power book). The I-book I want is around 1299.00, with the wider screen,..than the smaller i-book.
    Anyhow,.what led me to this decision was just sending back the Sony FS series. It was sleek beautiful and"white" like I love,..but the speakers were awful. I have just about given up on trying to find a decent notebook. I love the look of the i-book,..but cant get that gorgeous wide screen from Sony out of my mind. It was more than the speakers. Just too noisy. Anyway...if you bought this i-book all over again,..would you? Alos I have a brand new Linskys Router with the built in Security. Would the Macs intergrated wireless card,..work with my router?
    Please help!

        planning on getting this notebook. Need advice

    I'm afraid you're not exactly going to get an unbiased opinion here
    As a long-time Mac fan (back since System 6) who was forced into a PC world man years ago, OSX has re-kindled my passion for computing. I'm an old Unix guy and OSX has combined the best PC operating system with the power of Unix. To the average user who doesn't care about shell scripts and porting free applications, what you'll get from Unix is a tremendous amount of reliability and security...
    One of the best reasons for anyone to switch to the Mac was summed up in a post over on iLounge as a reply to someone who was switching. When asked why anyone would switch, one reply simply said, "...because he realises that a computer should be a productivity tool, not a virus scanner."
    In the year since I've bought my Mac Mini, the only failure I've had has been a crash of Virtual PC (an emulator that will allow you to run your old Windows-based applications), which took the virtual disk out and forced me to reinstall my Windows environment. That's nothing different than I've experienced countless times on my old PC.
    That said, I'm looking at a 12" iBook. I didn't even consider the 14" because I don't want something larger that doesn't give me extra screen real-estate. I debated the 15" Powerbook but decided I don't really need it's larger screen, and I'd rather have something more portable. There are companies out there that sell dual-layer DVD-RW drives that can be installed in an iBook (even the 12" Powerbook only ships with a single-layer DVD burner).
    512mb should be plenty, unless you plan on editing video or running Virtual PC--in which case, I'd recommend at least a gig.
