Can connect to Mac users, but not Windows.

I have been able to connect to other Mac users signed onto AIM accounts in iChat, but not Windows users signed onto AIM. Help with this problem would be greatly appreciated, as I am at college and away from all my loved ones, and desperately want to chat with them.

Hi,
I am sorry that only 2 hours and 15 minutes left you disappointed.
Some things to consider.
1) they have to be on XP.
2) they have to be using AIM 5.9 or Trillian Pro
3) if they use AIM 5.9 they have to Tune the Camera and Mic to the Application. See message 570 in that link (Access to these preferences in in the My AIM menu now or use F3)
4) Whichever App they use it has to be Enabled through the XP firewall. IF at Service Pack 2 they need these instructions an earlier version of XP has to have the Firewall disabled.

Detailed version

The ports that iChat uses have to be opened at your end although it sounds like they are.
The port for AIM/Trillian have to opened in their modem at their end.

    That setting is only related to iMessage. It causes iMessages to be resent as SMS if iMessage fails.

  • TS1492 I can connect to the internet but not to itunes

    itunes error 11333, I can connect to the internet but not to itunes Store. Apple Support, mention update to itunes 7.5 will solve the problem, but if check for itunes updates in my system, it says that the system is pu to date

    I won't give you a lecture about how poor WEP encryption is, but are you sure that is the problem? Is it possible that your new modem (or the carrier behind it) is not providing DHCP service?

  • Connection to Apple products but not windows

    Just as the title says. I can connect my mac, iPads and work laptop via my apple phone but cannot link laptops directly to the internet via wi fi if they are not Apple. Why is this?

    You are not explaining your problem very well.
    Are you using 3G, a BTWifi hotspot or using a BT Internet connection via a BT Homehub?
    Are you tethering your devices to your iPhone so that they can connect to the Internet?

  • Can connect to wireless router but not to the internet

    Please Help, I have a WRT150N and I can connect to my wireless router by it will not connect to the internet from there, even though the internet, wireless, and security lights are lit up. If I plug a cord into the back of the router and then into my computer, I can connect to the internet, but once I disconnect the cable, I can still find and connect to my wireless router, but it will not connect to the internet from here. Under access it says "Local Only", I have the security type set to "Shared" under the security properties, and set to "WEP" with WEP key #1 entered. I have spent about 4 hours working on this problem now and could really use some help. Thanks.

    Type ipconfig /all in command prompt(cmd.exe) to see whether it displays valid and correct IP, netmask, gateway and DNS info. If not, take a look on these cannot connect to wireless network problem and using ping to troubleshoot network problem articles to get more ideas. Hope it helps..

  • Why can't I connect to my shared computers for file sharing;I have 3 Macs and I can connect the other 2 but not my new Macbook air.

    I have a black Macbook 4,1 running 10.7.5, an iMac 11,3 running 10.7.5 and a new Macbook Air 6,2 running 10.9.5., I have file sharing turned on on all machines. All machines are visible and I can connect all machines except for the Macbook Air. The Macbook air can see the other 2 Macs but does not connect to either of them or even give me the option to connect as a guest or a registered user. The other Macs connect to the Macbook Air but it will not connect with them. Any help is appreciated. Thank You.

  • WLC only connects to MACs, Androids, but not to Windows PCs since today

    Since today we have a curious "feature":
    Only MAC and Android clients are able to connect to the WLAN, locked by WPA2-enterprise/Radius (Windows domain server with NAS). Windows clients are denied.
    Does anyone have the same epxeriences?
    Markus

    I found the solution after sveral hours of searching in google and the log-files of the NPS:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/933430/en-us
    Our NPS-Server contains to many entries in the trusted root certification list!!!
    I tried to delete several certificates, but as you can see in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/293781 this can be very critical, since I don#t know, which certificates are needed for the system
    So I used Method #3 in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/933430/en-us afterwards and now it seems, that all clients can connect again.

  • I can connect iPod to charger, but not computer? No symbols or anything.

    I have a huge problem with my video iPod. I can connect it to the charger, no problem. But when it comes to connect it to my PC, it just will not read it at all. Usually it dignifies being connected by showing the "do not disconnect" symbol. But now it just will not read at all and shows no other symbols on the iPod. I have tried everything I can on both the PC and iPod but nothing works.
    Please help, me being the idiot I am, I have important uni files on the iPod that I need asap.

    updated ipad just after and now it will not do anything and can't get it to appear in itunes.
    Might need to restart or reinstall the AMDS.
    For Windows follow the instructions here > iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: How to restart the Apple Mobile Device Service (AMDS) on Windows

  • TNS error ORA-12154 : can connect to one server but not to another.

    Hello,
    I have a Forms 6.0 application running on a Solaris box. It connects
    fine to an Oracle 9.0 server but fails with ORA-12154 when trying to
    connect to Oracle 10g running on a different server.
    'sqlplus' can connect fine to both servers .
    'tnsping'result is succesful from the Solaris client to both servers.
    Configuration details are as follows. (IP Addresses have been
    sanitised. I've included the client side listener and also entries for
    the 'local' Oracle 8i server running on the Solaris 'client' although
    I think some of this may be not relevant):

    name suffix '.qonnectis.com' in the tnsnames.ora files on the solaris
    client and on the new 10g server.
    Just to add to the fun, the 'new' server running Ora 10g CANNOT connect
    to the old server running Ora 9:
    sqlplus user/pass@nn_qq3
    sqlplus user/pass@nn_qq3.qonnectis.com both fail.
    While the old 9.0 server CAN connect to the new 10g one:
    sqlplus user/[email protected] succeeds.
    Sorry this is such a mess. TBH I find this whole area extremely
    confusing.
    All suggestions welcome. Unfortunately I am away on holiday next week
    but will follow up any leads when I get back.
    thanks!

  • My PC is connected to my airport by Ethernet. I can connect to the network, but not the internet. My wireless devices can access the internet

    My PC is connected to AirPort Extreme by ethernet, I can access the network, but not the internet. The wireless devices on the extreme can access the internet

    Hey DM,
    Is the Wireless(WL) router signal coming through the wired-router?
    My ISP requires that my Wireless Router is identified from their end. I use AirPort Express, so they need its MAC address from the router. Without that, my network will show up, but my ISP doesn't recognize it and won't allow it to route he internet. I don't know your exact situation though.
    Can other wireless computers access the internet? If they can through the WL router, then it might be the MacBook. If they can't, then you might want to contact your ISP and ask if they can see your wireless router?
    Let us know.

  • Weird - can connect to both instances - but not to main SID

    As a newbie to RAC I got stuck...
    after installation of grid, db SW and a sample DB "QRC" with dbca I can connect to both instances QRC1 and QRC2,
    but not to QRC - here sqlplus tells me "connected to an idle instance"

    The Oracle System ID (SID) is used to uniquely identify a particular database on a system. For this reason, one cannot have more than one database with the same SID on a host.
    When using RAC, all instances belonging to the same database must have unique SID's even using different hosts.
    So, you must set ORACLE_SID to QRC1 where Instance 1 is running or QRC2 where Instance 2 is running.
    To know where instance number is running you can get this info following steps below:
    $GRID_HOME/bin/olsnodes -n
    lnxora01        1
    lnxora02        2In example above all instance created by DBCA on lnxora01 will have prefix 1 (e.g db QRC will have QRC1) and on lnxora02 will have prefix 2. (it's not a rule, because I can set manually the number of instance as I wish)
    Or exists another way to find it: (on local node)
    ps -ef |grep pmon
    ora_pmon_QRC1 So, to connect just set right ORACLE_SID
    eg:
    export ORACLE_SID=QRC1

  • IPhone 4 & iPod Touch can connect to Time Capsule, but not Internet

    My family and I have an iPhone 4, iPhone 3G & iPod Touch. Our WiFi comes from a Time Capsule. My Macbook Pro can connect to the WiFi and get online, but the iPod & iPhones can only connect to the Wifi, not actually get online.
    We some issues with our ISP last week, which took some time and some messing with the settings on Time Capsule to resolve. At one point, Airport Utility asked me if I'd like to switch to bridge mode...I'm not sure if that ever happened or not, to be honest, and don't know how to see if I'm in bridge mode or not (or even what that means, really).
    With my iPhone 4, I can successfully connect to the wireless network, but the icon in the top left of the screen stays on 3G (unless my service drops in my house, in which case it shows the WiFi icon but won't let me connect via Safari or any other apps).
    With the iPhone 3G, it does connect, but doesn't ever show the WiFi icon.
    With the iPod, it says it connects, but doesn't ever show the WiFi icon. I get the error "Safari cannot open the page. The error was: Operation coudl not be completed. Invalid argument."
    Does anyone have any idea what I could do to resolve this?

    I fixed this on my own. How did I do it?
    1. Reset Time Capsule to factory settings (via Airport Utility)
    2. Renamed my WiFi network
    3. Restarted my router
    Everything's fixed. I've seen this problem all over the Web but no solutions, so hopefully this will help someone.

  • Can connect to Airport Express but not to the internet

    Please help
    My Airport Express shows the solid green light. I am also able to connect to it and use AirTunes on my HiFi.
    However I cant connect to the internet. If I plug in my laptop to the router directly the internet works fine. So it is not a router problem.
    Any idea?

    After following your instruction, I am not able to connect to the airport express anymore. I can still see the network but it is somehow unable to read the IP address.
    When I try to get to the Airport utility it shows the base station but do not let me get into the configuration and shows an error message -4.
    The only option I have then is to reset the AE

  • Can connect to wireless network but not to internet

    Ok, so I bought a new AEBS and have finally managed to get it set up with my cable modem, and with security on so that the light is green, and not amber... the only problem now is that although I can connect to the wireless network that i have created using the base station, I cannot connect to the internet through it using my MacBook.
    I don't have problem connecting my iMac to the net wirelessly using the base unit so am confused.
    Anyone got any ideas?

  • Blue screen of death, crash broke Mac OS but not Windows?

    I was just working on installing Fallout on my bootcamp partition of Windows 7. There was a corrupted file that gave me the blue screen crash, and I had to reload windows into safe mode to get it to quit crashing on me. After I had my fun, I needed to go back on my Mavericks side. I clicked the boot camp icon, and just have it the instructions to reboot into the Mac OS. Now it won't load, after the computer restart, I get the grey apple symbol and then a progress bar on the bottom. I wait for the progress bar to do its thing, and as soon as it hits full (~20min) the computer just shuts off. Does anyone have any experience with this? I haven't seen that progress bar in any other Mac OS 10.X. I am also unable to get it to load into safe mode on the Mac side either. Thanks for any advice.

    Yes, I have seen that. I am looking for a way to at least save some information while I am at it. I checked out disc utility, it shows that my Mac partition is there, but it is greyed out. When I try to verify/repair it, it says that it can't do it. If I try to restore it to a secondary harddrive, it doesn't work either. Not from disc utility.
    I loaded up my windows side, and downloaded Macrium, which is a disc copier. I formatted my secondary hardrive after taking the movies off of it, to FAT32 so I could still read/write from the Windows side. Interestingly enough, the cloner, Macrium, is perfectly capable of accessing my Mac OS partition. Another something interesting is that while I had it copying over my Mac OS partition onto my secondary HDD, I accidently cancelled it while trying to wake my computer up. I went back into disc utility to format that harddrive again to try again, but when it was formatting it, it said it could not unmount my copied files that were from my Mac OS partition onto the secondary harddrive. Does this mean that there is just something wrong with the file system itself? Does anyone know what might cause this? I just don't want to be given a link to erase everything, it isn't helpful at all.
