AV works for me, except with this ONE friend... same thing for him.

I can AV chat with everyone on my buddy list (I use AIM on a Macbook Pro), but when I try to AV chat with this one friend (who has the exact same laptop as I do), it fails to connect. He can also AV chat with everyone else on his buddy list... I've searched the net and found other people with this same problem but no solutions yet. Any ideas?
Thanks.

It may be the way the individual Modems or routers that are involved do NAT.
NAT (Network Address Translation) is a global term for various ways of achien=ving the same thing.
Some devices don't "Play Nicely" together.
One option is to use UPnP if the devices have it to open the ports

  • Hi..I have an AirPort Extreme base connected to my DSL Modem and has been working fine. But I recently bought another DSL modem along with the latest Airport Express. With this one however I can't get it to connect to the Internet. Any suggestions?

    Hi..I have an AirPort Extreme base connected to my DSL Modem and has been working fine. But I recently bought another DSL modem along with the latest Airport Express. With this one however I can't get it to connect to the Internet. The light on the Express is flashing green though. Does it mean I have to re-set the settings on Airport Utility? I.e. the old settings haven't been cleared yet. Any suggestions?

    Let's see if I can get this straight.
    You have an Airport Extreme base station that is set to "Create a wireless network" and you have the box checked for "allow this network to be extended"....
    Then you have an Airport Express that is set to "Extend a wireless network" which you selected the name of your network in the box...
    Correct?
    See this Apple document:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4259?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    The wireless unit on the right of the diagram can be either of the newer Apple base stations.
    Extreme, Express, Time Capsule

  • "File ... already exists, but it is inconsistent with this one." error

    I've previously used ALPC to profile a Zuiko 12-60 on a E520 and I had no trouble at all. I had 33 different sets of 9 pictures each, and they all merged nicely into one consistent profile. The profile worked perfectly and corrected lens distortion better than any other software I've used. Now I'm trying to profile my Nikkor 10-24 on a Nikon D7000, but as soon as I try to append the 2nd set to the 1st one (same focal length and focus distance, different aperture), I get this message: "File <filename> already exists, but it is inconsistent with this one. Please select a different location or use a different file name.".
    My brother has been having this same issue and he's also using a Nikon D7000, but with a Sigma 17-70 2.8-4.0. Any ideas why this is happening? Some sort of D7000 raw conversion issue, maybe? I used ACR to convert NEF to DNG. The first profile is created and works well, though apparently not very accurate.
    I tested the one profile that is saved, at 10mm and f/3.5, and it's not very good. Distortion is clearly over-corrected. The one difference between the profile I did for the Olympus and this one is that I refocused after every shot for this one (since the wide angle really throws corner focus off when you reframe it). Could this be it? If not, what else?
    I'm using an A4 13x21 chart. It's enough to fill the frame with 9 shots at minimum focus distance.

    I am having the same problem with my d7000.  This happens regardless of software used to convert NEF files, so if I had to guess at why this is happening I would say that the d7000 maybe has a different format for its makernotes, which is where the lens information is stored, and the lens profile creator doesn't read it.
    Here's what happened when I tried to profile my 50mm f1.8 nikkor: I took 9 pictures at f1.8 and nine at f2.8. The profiling worked fine on both. So I ran it first on the f1.8 set, and saved it. Did the same for the f2.8 set and tried to save it, but it wouldn't allow me to append the file to the existing one, giving me the "inconsistent" error discussed here. I then save the second profile separately.
    I opened both on windows notepad, and this is the lensID inconsistency already discussed here:
    The profile I did with the f1.8 set had this line in it:
    <stCamera:LensID>76</stCamera:LensID>
    And the profile I did with the f2.8 set had this line:
    <stCamera:LensID>179</stCamera:LensID>

  • Not again...help with this one....

    I have problem with my iphone 4s my battery is not keeping charge. how can I get help with this one? it is less than a year that I purchased this cell.

    I would like to know the answer to that one.  I realized this was happening just after upgradeing my iOS to 6.  Then when I looked up my purchase date, I was about 5 days past my one year warranty.  So I'm dead in the water.  Apple will replace the battery, but it will be about $80+.  I took it to the Apple store, and they checked a bunch of stuff, but said that it seemed ok.  I'm debating getting a battery for a more reasonable price off of ebay.  But if it's the iOS thats draining the battery, then I'm not going to be able to help it.  I wish I knew a better way to tell if its the battery, the phone, or the iOS.

  • Facebook images, profile photos, cover photos are not loading. Only small blue square with question mark. Same thing in Safari, FireFox, Chrome.

    Since July on MacBook Pro facebook images, profile photos, cover photos are not loading. Only small blue square with question mark. Same thing in Safari, FireFox, Chrome. Everything is up to date including last version of Adobe Flash. And watching YouTube also a problem. Video is skipping, freezing for few seconds and jumps forward. At the same time on Toshiba with Windows Vista under the same account, same wi-fi connection everything works fine.
    Please help with sugesstions to fix the issue.

    Seems like problem is solved but it might be temporarily. Anyway. Click on the image, it will open facebook photo browser. Image is not loading so right click on the blue box with question mark, save image as. It will start downloading but without any success since browser do not see the image. After this attempt refresh the page and close all tabs with facebook. Try to open facebook once again. For some reason after this weird actions all images displayed properly. Do not know for how long but now it works.

  • Are "working copies", "project files" and "editing files" the same thing?

    Hello.
    I have just joined the Adobe Forums as a newbie starting right at the bottom. I am still unfamiliar with the terms "working copies", "project files" and "editing files".
    I wonder if someone will help me to know the difference between these terms.
    I have just started the Dreamweaver tutorial, "Creating your first website, Part 1: Set up your site and project files" (http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/first_website_pt1.htm).
    The tutorial read, "You've now defined a local site folder for the Check Magazine site. This is where you keep the working copies of web pages on your local computer.".
    Are "working copies", "project files" and "editing files" the same thing?

    Why would the raid level make any difference at all?  My data files are all stored on a RAID 4 system and seems to do pretty well.
    Murray *ACP*,
    If I may elaborate on this,
    being completely new to Dreamweaver, my reason for having wondered whether it would be a good idea or a bad idea to have these files on disks that are in RAID 0, was because the term project files in the Dreamweaver Tutorial had me thinking of Premiere Pro project files and the performance increase working with such project files in a RAID 0 setup, which (provided there is backup) is especially beneficial if you have large or complex projects, long time-lines and a tight deadline,
    especially considering that as fill rates of disks go up, and as the number of disk activities on a disk go up, performance goes down, sometimes by 50%, and that the more tracks you have in your project, the more strain is put on your disk, and the more applications you have open, the more your pagefile is used, especially on systems with limited memory.
    Therefore, as RAID 0 offers the best performance increase over a single disk,  I immediately thought of the concept of project files related to Premiere Pro when I came across the term project files in the Dreamweaver Tutorial, being unfamiliar with the definition of project files in Dreamweaver world, hence my need to define project files related to Dreamweaver with reference to disk setup and file management.
    However, if I understand correctly, my conclusion is that RAID 0 is not necessary for Dreamweaver project files, since the local site is not disk intensive, unless you have a huge website to build ?
    Also, if I understand correctly, in website design, you want to minimize local files and use your hosting company to store and retrieve info from ?

    All these mails fail conversion on the GWIA and go to the bad ones. Please note that the attachment itself is fine along with the proper boundary.
    If i remove the

    statement or change it to something silly such as
    charsetisfromouterspace (note the missing equals sign)
    i can reinsert the message into the GWIA queue and it's getting delivered just fine.
    Seems that GWIA disregards an invalid charset statement, treats it just like missing one and defaults to us-ascii.
    If i set the statement to read
    charset=US-ASCII
    it starts failing again. On the other hand i can safely generate a file with pretty much the same properties (as for content-type and transfer encoding of body and attachment), paste it into the queue and can watch it being processed just fine.
    Does anyone see anything non-RFC-compliant in the message?

    I'll be honest. you've done great research, and hence it will probably

    personal/social lubricant) than you. You seem well equipped to file
    this. just include the ZIPPED MIME message and the info above, and let
    us know what bug # it gets filed under and we'll jump in if things stall.
    i've opened SR 10811736311 2 weeks ago. while working on this issue i've found several other issues with the recent gwia builds, which are at least a little less tolerant than they've been up to 802ftf3 / 2012fcs.
    apart from other stuff i've noticed that a current gwia (i.e. 803 / 2012sp1 and younger) rejects messages which have a NUL (ascii 0) at the end (likely also anywhere else) of a base64 encoded attachment.
    apart from the fact that this character obviously doesn't make too much sense there i'm not sure if this is valid at all. RFC 2045 is a little unclear on this as it says that "...all characters not found in the base64 alphabet must be ignored by decoding software". on the other hand they could "...probably indicate a transmission error, about which a warning message or even message rejection might be appropriate under some circumstances".
    so does NUL belong to the "family of line breaks and white spaces"?

  • Does anybody know how to get help with this one?

    Hello there!  
    I wanted to get an advice on how to get in touch with the appropriate person at BT that could help with my situation.
    I have tried telephone help, complaints by email and unfortunately still waiting for somebody from the customer services to help me out.
    I have recently moved home.  I contacted BT on 26th June to organise the line transfer to the new address. The date was set for 18th July. I also ordered line rental saver and paid for it over the phone. All went smooth, telephone and broadband was working fine at the new place, but on the 23rd July I was sent an email that "BT is sorry that I am leaving". 
    I thought it was a mistake, but the lady in the on-line chat said somebody stopped my service. Later she rang and left a message saying that I must have requested to move to another provider. Did not manage to speak to her again, but phoned the help line this time.
    There a gentleman was trying to convince me that I called BT and cancelled my service on the 18th July and to him I was not a BT customer anymore. The truth is that I did not request to stop my service, anyway - why would I do that after paying for a year in advance. This has no logic, but because computer says so then he thinks I did it.
    He also added that my account is a 'mess'. He then promised that somebody would get in touch to sort it out as my line rental was gone and my phone and internet could go off any minute.
    I did not get any help. After that I wrote to them  3 email complaints to request assistance. They called and aknowledge they will help, but 3 weeks down the line nothing was done to explain the situation. Left the messages to the person from email complaints to ring me or email me -never happened.
    Last week I got 2 emails welcoming me to BT and outlining the call plans that were diferent from each other and the one I agreed to on the 25th June. When I called help line 2 days ago a lady confirmed on which one I am on, but could not sort out the most annoying thing - the 'final' bill. 
    I was sent a bill for over 200 pounds due to premature termination of phone and broadband service , which I never ordered. They already took the money this week. My line saver is gone as well. So I am 360 pounds short. I aslo have no access to myBT to monitor my phone activity or make orders.They also did not send any confrimation of the call plan I am currently on.
    It is a very annoying situation, because somebody at BT made an error and I am unable to get to anybody that could help. Everytime you call the help line you speak to somebody else and despite me thinking the email complaints would be the way forward they are not. Would appreciate some advice on how to tackle these issues: false accusations from them, inappropriate billing, problem with myBT.
    Thanks Lukasz

  • Could i get some help with this one

    the aim of this project is to make a n by n maze and traverse this. if, while traversing the maze the system realises that there is a dead end it turns back. My problem is that sometimes it turns back and sometimes it doesnt. Here, below is the method for traversing the maze. Could i get a second pair of eyes to help me out a bit with this code?
         * Prints out the current maze
        public void show()
             for (int i=0;i<array.length;i++)
                for (int j=0; j<array.length;j++)
    System.out.print(array[i][j]) ;

    * traverses through the maze
    * @param row: the current row
    * @param column: the current column
    public void traverse(int row, int column)
    if ((row==3)&&(column==column-1))//checks if the array has reached the end
    System.out.println("array is solved");
    }else

    array[row][column]='x';//marks path

  • Cannot now attach files to new hotmail messages. this used to work. IE okay with this.

    Suddenly I can no longer "attach" any files to an outgoing message thru my hotmail account. This used to work fine, and still works fine if I use IE. The "attach" option is there, but it cannot be clicked on.

    I've posted this many times & others have posted their methods more than once as well.
    This is what works for me. After I installed the new iWork updates I created a folder on an external drive & named it "other applications." I then moved the new iWork apps to this folder & renamed the applications Keynote 6, Pages 5 & Numbers 3. I have icons for two versions of Pages & Numbers (I rarely use Keynote) in my Dock. Even with two versions of Pages & Numbers running, double-clicking an existing file opens in Pages 4.3 or Numbers 2.3. This should also keep the Mac App Store from nagging you to update.

    I had this problem for quiet sometime now, and I would really appreciate your help. THANKS

    I did try restoring the ipad a couple of times and it didn't do the trick. I also tried updating the firmware.
    The only thing that worked for a while when the ipad - on it's own - rebooted itself into a black screen with white text and automatically fixed the issue. It worked perfectly for a couple of months but it came back after I forgot to charge the ipad , does anyone know how I can force the ipad into that screen again ?

  • Error 1603: Need some help with this one

    When installing iTunes I first get an error box saying
    "Error 1406: Could not write value to key \Software\classes\.cdda\OpenWithList\iTunes.exe. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel."
    The second one (after I click on Ignore on the last box) I get it this one:
    "Error: -1603 Fatal error during installation.
    Consult Windows Installer Help (Msi.chm) or MSDN for more information"
    Strange thing is that I do have full access to my computer (or atleast in all other cases I have had since I am the only one with an account on it).
    I have done my best in trying to solve it myself but I'm running out of ideas. I have downloaded latest versions from the website and tried installing Quicktime separately. I have also tried removing Quicktime using add/or remove programs though I just I didn't dare to take full removal because it said something about system files.
    Anyway I really need some help with this, anyone got any ideas?

    Do you know how to count backwards? Do you know how to construct a loop? Do you know what an autodecrementor is? Do you know how to use String length? Do you know Java arrays start with index 0 and run to length-1? Do you know you use length on arrays too? Do you know what System.out.println does?
    Show us what you have, there isn't anything here that isn't easily done the same as it would be on paper.

  • Have two iphone 5s with ios 7.0.2 camera video does not work.  Anyone else with this issue?  Anyone have a fix?

    Own two iphone 5s with ios 7.0.2 loaded.  Both phones do not allow camera video to start.  Anyone else with this issue?  Any suggestions how to correct?

    Hello markittwo,
    Thank you for details about the issue you are experiencing with recording video after upgrading to iOS 7.
    The first thing I recommend is quitting and relaunching the applications on your iPhones:
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    You can find the full article here:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5137
    If you are still seeing the same issue after quitting and relaunching the Camera app, I recommend restarting your phones and then resetting if recording video still not working:
    Restarting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Note: Reset your device only if you are unable to restart it.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
    If the issue persists, the last thing I recommend is backing up and restoring your iPhones:
    iOS: How to back up and restore your content

    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
