Bonjour error - "other person's computer may be unreachable"

I am having problems sending iChat messages to other users running Leopard over our local network. I get this error:
Bonjour error
Instant Message connection failed. The other person’s computer may be unreachable.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to get around this?
I can iChat with Tiger users with no problems.
Thanks,
James.

Make sure the other computer is on the Same LAN and in fact the same Subnet of a LAN if there are subnets.
Subnets are created when you use a second routing device and have one or more computers each side of it.
EXAMPLE
Routing modem <-> Computers and a router with that router <-> more computers.
The? "more computers" will not see the first "computers" as in the same Subnet.

  • Bonjour computer may be unreachable

    I have 5 imacs in my office and we use ichat (text) to communicate. Whenever any of the computers try to send a message to one particular computer we get a "Bonjour connection error. The computer may be unreachable." The computers name shows up in the bonjour list. Other computers can receive messages from this computers. A few of the computers will attempt to send messages to this computer and never receive the error message, but the instant message still does not go through.

  • HT4557 Can I use Home Sharing with only another person's iPad but with out the other person's computer?

    Would like to share music with someone.  Currently the computer registered with the iPad is out of commission.  But since you can pretty much do everything on the iPad another computer was not purchased.  How can I utilize home sharing with out two computers?

    You don't.  Otherwise they would have called it Device sharing. 

  • 1. iPodService (32 bit)  2.  BONJOUR error 3. Unistall and use my id on new computer

    Hello I have two issues. First is the line I have.  I keep getting the "iPodService (32 bit) stopped working and was closed message.  I have rebooted, I've looked on line and have tried to get the correct answer. 
    Second question:  I keep getting the Bonjour error message.  They may be related.
    LASTLY.....  I can no longer check all of my songs in iTunes.  Half of them are greyed out.  I still play them but there is something wrong.  I can say this all started when I installed the new Norton Antivirus and removed the McAffee. 
    OK, I lied, one more question.
    I have 3 lap tops.  All are mine and I use for personal work and photos.  My husband put my daughters iTouch on one of my systems.  I have tried to uninstall his information and use have it as mine (since it is my computer).  I uninstall and re-install, and continue to get all of the junk he installed on it.... Barney cartoons, Sponge Bob, etc.  I don't want them on my system and want my library on it.  Any suggestions.
    With that, we can't get her iTouch to download on to her system.  It states she can't because it is on another system............ Ok, those are my issues and would love any guidance available.

    My application uses the provider for the web app and references a version of the Oracle.DataAccess.dll 2.112.1.0. which we use for the build process. When we deploy a release package we also deploy this dll as up until now it has seemed to be compatible between the different versions as we also have some customers still on 2.102.2.20 of the oracle client and ODP. You can't deploy that DLL. If you do, your program will see it and try to use it first, which means that DLL will then call whatever version of Oracle is on the machine. If they're not compatible with each other (and in this case they're not), then it's just not going to work.
    Once the managed provider beta comes out I'd take a look at that, as this sounds like the exact scenario it's going to fix. You can just include it and your program will use that for it's Oracle connections no matter what native client is installed (or even if there isn't one).
    In the mean time if you want people using 10.2 to be able to use it, you should probably be referencing 10.2 when you create it. If you have a reference to Oracle.DataAccess.dll but don't include it, the program will look for it in the GAC and use the version on the machine instead.

  • Someone else bought an app on the store. I had already purchased the app before on my other computer, so I deleted the app on my new computer that the other person purchased. I now want to download the app again on MY account but...........

    Someone else bought an app on the store on my new computer. I had already purchased the app before on my old computer, so I deleted the app on my new computer that the other person purchased. I now want to download the app again through MY account. When I click INSTALL it asks for ID, but it shows up automatically with the other person's ID, so I delete that and enter mine instead. I then click SIGN IN, but then it says "Unknown error", then I click OK, then it says "We could not complete your request. There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (4)". How do I get rid of all info of other people's IDs so I can get the app through my account again?
    The app that I'm trying to download actually might have been a pirated app. But I deleted it, so why is it not letting me get it through my account?
    Please help!
    Thanks

                                             No     Yes"

    Hi,
    Some "movies' are actually Flash files.
    This means the Flash App will play them (possibly in a browser in some cases).
    Depending where this item is and how it is playing it may be effected by other things
    A web page can include javascript.
    Apple uses javascript here to help with creating the posting box, the Edit options, Adding pics/smilies and the like.
    Sometimes the javascript can be what is called a runaway process and gets sort of stuck in an endless loop.
    If it is a free standing item then it might be triggered by AppleScript on the Mac. (or be modified in some way)
    Again if the Script (normally written with a upper case S) is not perfect it can cause problems.

  • How can I find out what is on my iCloud. I used to share an account and now I don't but the other person may have accessed my cloud.

    I am trying to find out what information it actually stored on my iCloud. I shared an account with someone and no longer do however I believe that the other person has accessed all of my contacts. Is there a way I can find out what was on the cloud that was accessed.

    You can go to icloud.com from your computer to see what data is in the account (other than photo stream photos and your iCloud backup), but you won't know what data may have been accessed by someone else.  If you're concerned, change your password as discussed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5624.  After changing your iCloud ID password, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new password.
    When you delete the account it only deletes the account and your synced data from your device, not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account your data will be synced back when you sign back in.  Save you photo stream photos before deleting the account (tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll)

  • Why does adobe photoshop elements 6.0 not show up for a download choice of putting my photos into my computer, I'm on windows7.  I'm sure it did when I first got my computer.  Could it be that I have lots of other photo software that may be interfering?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.

  • Approached by a company indicating they have received error waring from my computer.

    Has anyone else been approached, over the phone, by a company purporting to be a security company working for Apple.
    They indicated that they have been receiving error messages from my computer.
    The person wanted to me to connect to the internet so that the technical section of the company could remove the infected files ~ whilst I watched.
    Is this a scam or is it legitimate?
    Does Apple have a company that looks at the security isses with their computers?

    For such occasions, I have a toy cell phone, which I hold up to the mic end of the phone, that plays tones and beeps and says "hello, who's calling? Operator, may I help you?"

  • T61 - Blue screen error message (nv4_disp) - Now computer won't even start!

    Hi I have a Lenovo T61 (Type: 7662-CTO) Windows XP.
    A couple days ago, all of sudden my screen turned in a yellowish hue, started flickering intensely and froze; I had to manually shut it off (by pushing the power button).
    Next day, I started my computer and it worked fine until I had the exact same flickering and freezing issue, but this time, the screen didn't turn in a yellowish hue. Once again, I manually shut it off and went to bed.
    This morning, however, when I started my computer, my screen went totally blank, though I could hear my computer running. I hooked it up to my TV to see if anything comes up and that's when I got this blue screen of error message.
    It says:
     ================================================================================
    Problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.
    Problem seems to be caused by the following file: nv4_disp
    If this is the first time you’ve seen this stop error screen, restart your computer.
    If this screen appears again, follow these steps:
    The device driver got stuck in an infinite loop. This usually indicates problem with the device itself or with the device driver programming the hardware incorrectly.
    Please check with your hardware device vendor for any driver updates.
    Technical information:
    ** STOP: 0x000000EA (0x8A4803C8, 0x88FFD500, 0xBA4EFCBC, 0x00000001)
    nv4_disp
    beginning dump of physical memory
    physical memory dump complete.
    contact your system administrator or technical support group for further assistance.
    ==================================================================================
    It would show this blue screen very briefly and rebooted by itself (without letting me log in windows), so I had to once again manually shut it off.
    I thought perhaps cleaning a fan might help, so I opened up my laptop, cleaned the fan, keyboard, palm rest etc and assembled it back together.
    When I turned on my computer, now I'm getting NOTHING. Not even a blue screen. Computer would start, but very briefly after (just a few seconds after), it would just shut it off by itself. 
    Someone please tell me what's wrong with my computer and if I can revive it at all.
    Also, would you recommend me to bring it to the local Lenovo repair center (http://bplocator.lenovo.com/)?
    Thanks so much for reading a long message.

    You can find the latest driver for your system here. Another option would be to run ThinkVantage System Update, which is hopefully on your system, if not you can find it here.
    I'm not saying this is the solution or ruling out a hardware problem, (which the flickering suggests), but it's a good place to start

  • Unable to update iTunes:  Related to Bonjour error "WSARecvMsg error 87"

    I checked my Services console and Bonjour was started. I can also stop and start it without issue. I searched for these errors, but most of what I found was trouble getting the Bonjour service to start and as you can see, this is not my issue.
    I have also tried to update iTunes with Bonjour stopped and disabled and with my Eset NOD32 Antivirus software disabled, but neither of these steps made any difference. I do not have a third-party firewall on my PC, but I am using Windows firewall. I have also tried disabling the Windows firewall, but this made no difference.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    More information:
    Found this in the System log in Windows Event Viewer. There are many occurrences coinciding with the times I have been trying to update iTunes and/or Bonjour.
