Can't enter iChat

I tried to use iChat for the first time. I finished the initial setup and the iChat dialog box titled "Encrypted iChat" said "You are now ready to use iChat... *Click Done to start using iChat.*" The problem is there was no "Done" button! The button supposed to show Done showed "Continue" forever, no matter how many times I clicked on it. I tried every possible way I can think of, including using other accounts, turning off firewall, connecting directly to the Internet, deleting preferences, checking for updates, repairing permissions, reinstalling iChat and related frameworks. What else can I do to solve this problem?

I think I have found the source of the problem. I conducted a few experiments.
First, I tried to use the iChat on a brand new MacBook (v 4,1) 2.4 GHz with OS 10.5.2 pre-installed. That iChat's setup dialog has no MobileMe account option. I used my .Mac account to login and iChat worked just fine.
Second, I booted up my Mac mini with a backup hard drive whose system has been updated to 10.5.4, but not yet applied the MobileMe update. Logging in with my .Mac account, the iChat on Mac mini now worked.
Third, I tested the iChat on a first generation PowerPC-based Mac mini with freshly installed OS 10.5 (no updates). Setting up and entering iChat with my .Mac account also worked smoothly without any problem.
Of course, because I used a .Mac account to login, all three working iChats mentioned above couldn't have the encryption turned on in their preference setting.
Therefore, my tentative conclusion seems pointing to the recent MobileMe related software update as the source of the problem. I suspect because I never used the iChat on that system before, the update automatically switched on the encryption setting without my consent. For some unknown reasons the iChat then can't work beyond the initial setup dialog.
To prove my theory, I need to find a way to remove the offending MobileMe update. Time Machine wouldn't work because it will also remove my other important files. Or should I file a bug report? How?

  • Can we enter data in any standard table directly through custom form??

    Dear All,
    Can we enter data in any standard table directly through custom form??

    Hi,
    Can we enter data in any standard table directly through custom form??
    I have create custom form in R.12. I want to insert data in quality standard table directly through custom form. Need experts guideline.
    Awaiting regards,
    I would not recommend touching the standard tables at all unless you are being guided by the SR. For a record to be in the standard table it should go through series of validations based on the what operation you are performing and some times datas are dependent upon the other tables, and also some times the same records are hit to so many other tables simultaneously.
    Therefore I would not recommend this brother.
    Thanks &
    Best Regards,

  • HT1212 I just updated my Ipad 2 to IOS7, now it is asking me for a passcode. I never set a passcode on my Ipad, so how can I enter a passcode. I tried using the OIS7 passcode I use on my Iphone  and it did not work and now my Ipad is disabled

    I just updated my Ipad 2 to IOS 7, now it is asking me for a passcode. I never set a passcode on my Ipad, so how can I enter a passcode. Earlier today I upgraded my Iphone 5 to IOS 7 and it asked me to set a passcode, which now works fine on my Phone. I  tried using the OIS7 passcode I use on my Iphone 5 and it did not work and now my Ipad is disabled. Both devices are on icloud and share the same apple id. The Ipad screen says slide to set up but then there is a prompt for passcode, not for setting up passcode

    I called Apple Support and a supervisor helped resolve this for me on my iPad. I suggest calling them for help as this is obviously an issue with the iOS 7 update - she helped me without charge. I could be missing something in my upcoming description, so do not take this as complete - call them.
    I had to update iTunes on my Mac Air to the latest version, and I had an iCloud backup from the day I updated to iOS7. Have iTunes open but do NOT connect your iPad yet. Shut down the iPad. Then press/hold the Home key on the iPad while you connect the USB from the iPad to the computer (an image of the USB cable appeared on the iPad). Follow the prompts in iTunes to restore and then backup using iCloud. When the iPad rebooted again to do the backup install, I got the same pass code issue and iTunes would not recognize the iPad without entering a pass code. I disconnected the iPad, turned it off, pressed the Home key while connecting the USB cable. When I did the restore and backup from iCloud the second time, it worked without the pass code issue occurring.

  • How can i enter multiple sales order numbers to set up table

    Hi,
    I need to reload about 8,000 sales orders to the set up table and the SO numbers are very scattered, so i can not enter them as a range. In transaction OLI7BW Sales Document field has no multiple selection option, therefore i have to enter the documents ONE BY ONE! Could you please tell me if there any faster way to enter them?

  • Multiple Yosemite woes: programs won't start, can't enter Time Machine, etc.

    Hello Linc et al.,
    I have been having Yosemite problems similar to those discussed elsewhere (e.g. iMac 27" late 2013 and Yosemite) (albeit with 10.10.1, Mid-2010 MacBook Pro): can't enter Time Machine, although it seems to be backing up; programs including Illustrator, EndNote, and Boinc don't start, or only after an hour or two (others, including Microsoft Office, seem okay). They will start normally in safe mode, but not for a newly created user. Many permission repairs carried out (seems okay except for a couple recurring printer-related messages), disk is okay, PRAM and SMC reset. Spent some time with various tech support, so most of these have been tried several times.
    The solution here com.apple.xpc.launchd & com.apple.mdworker.bundles pollute logs with errors worked through one restart - there were two mystery uids, owning many files - but not through a second.
    I have followed the permission repair procedure from another post (discussions.apple.com/message/27015992#27015992); the initial return was 639, and now it is 0. Restarted since then, nothing appeared to change.
    Below is what I get from the test suggested in the first thread mentioned, I hope there is something informative here! I'll study it myself, but don't know what might or might not matter.
    Thanks,
    Barbara

    Hello Linc et al.,
    I have been having Yosemite problems similar to those discussed elsewhere (e.g. iMac 27" late 2013 and Yosemite) (albeit with 10.10.1, Mid-2010 MacBook Pro): can't enter Time Machine, although it seems to be backing up; programs including Illustrator, EndNote, and Boinc don't start, or only after an hour or two (others, including Microsoft Office, seem okay). They will start normally in safe mode, but not for a newly created user. Many permission repairs carried out (seems okay except for a couple recurring printer-related messages), disk is okay, PRAM and SMC reset. Spent some time with various tech support, so most of these have been tried several times.
    The solution here com.apple.xpc.launchd & com.apple.mdworker.bundles pollute logs with errors worked through one restart - there were two mystery uids, owning many files - but not through a second.
    I have followed the permission repair procedure from another post (discussions.apple.com/message/27015992#27015992); the initial return was 639, and now it is 0. Restarted since then, nothing appeared to change.
    Below is what I get from the test suggested in the first thread mentioned, I hope there is something informative here! I'll study it myself, but don't know what might or might not matter.
    Thanks,
    Barbara

    My ipod screen is cracked and i can't sync my ipod to itunes because it is locked with a password and i can't enter the password because the heat sensor is messed up on the ipod becasue of the screen and i don't want to restore it and lose everything. What can i do?!

    All you can do is to restore and thus erase the iPod unless you can get a data recovery company to preserve the data.
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

  • How can I enter data in an input schedule on a member in the EPM Add-On that is not a base member?

    Hello, all,
    how can I enter data in an input schedule on a member in the EPM Add-On that is not a base member?
    E.g. I want to implement a top-down-planning scenario and I have the following hierarchy:
    Europe
         Germany
         France
         UK
         Spain
         Italy
    How can I enter a value on Europe in an input schedule in order to allocate this value afterwards?
    Thanks in advance and best regards
    Gerd

    Gerd,
    It should be something like below -
    EuropeInput
    Europe
         Germany
         France
         UK
         Spain
         Italy
    EuropeInput shall be kept out of hierarchy and should be a base level member. Users will enter the numbers in this member. In your script logic, you will make use of this member to allocate the data in Bas(Europe) i.e. Germany, France, etc.
    Effectively, after allocation the same data will be rolled up to Europe.
    Many top-down planning would use such work-around as BPC doesn't allow writing to parent node.
    Regards,
    Ashish

  • How can I change my iCloud account? I just changed my ID Apple so I can't enter with the old one.

    I just changed my ID Apple so I can't enter with the old one in the iColud account.
    I thought the ID Apple linked to iCloud would have been changed automatically, but not.
    Can anybody help me?

  • How can I enter my podcast in more than one category?  Mine covers arts, education and society and culture, but is listed as "Performing Arts".  Thank you for your time!

    How can I enter my podcast in more than one category, to reflect the fact that it covers arts, education and society and culture?  Thank you for your time!

    You can have more than one category - this page shows you how the tags are formed:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/specs.html#category
    The Store will list only the first category and its sub-category at the top of the page. Like the first category, the others will in theory make your podcast available for searching by category. However searching just on the category in the iTunes Store is most unlikely to throw up your podcast. There are thousands of podcasts out there, and it would be quite impossible to display on one page the entire list for any category. What you see are 'featured' podcasts, chosen by Apple as being special; please see this Tech Note:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/specs.html#getfeatured
    Note that there is no way you can influence the selection other than making your podcast really special.
    If you have further questions about making your podcast it's better to ask them in the Producing Podcasts forum.

  • How can I get IChat contacts on my IMessage?

    Hi, so I just got my new mac and I was very excited to start Ichatting. However, Ichat has been replaced by Imessage. I have a few questions regarding this. Is there a way for me to unistall imessage and get Ichat instead? If not, then how can I add IChat contacts to my Imessage. My sister is at university and she has IChat and I have IMessage and it wont let me message her because it says she is not signed up for IMessage. How can I make my Imessages connect to her Ichat?

    As Niel said, if it's a first generation iPad, you cannot update it past iOS 5.1.1.
    But if Facebook still offers their old app for that old iOS, here is how to get it:

  • Can i use ichat between two separate macs on the same mobile me account?

    Can i use ichat over two separate macs on the same mobile me account?
    I have an imac at home and may be getting a macbook for work. Can i use my mobile me account to chat between the two macs or would i need a mobile me account per mac??

    Hi,
    No.
    You need two names that can login into AIM.
    In iChat you can use the Get an iChat Account which shows after you use the Plus Button in Accounts.
    This will give you a free @mac.com Name
    AIM Names are also free.

  • How many times can you enter the wrong pin code on an iphone before it resets?

    How many times can you enter the wrong pin code on an iphone before it resets itself?

    Hey Robin.T,
    Thanks for the question. The following article provides the answer to your question:
    iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
    If you enter the wrong passcode six or more times, you'll see a message that says one of the following:
    iPhone is disabled
    iPad is disabled
    iPod touch is disabled
    You can also set your passcode lock to wipe the device after 10 unsuccessful attempts (Settings > General > Passcode Lock > Erase Data)
    Thanks,
    Matt M.
