Cannot invite more than one person to video chat, why?

I just got Leopard installed into my Macbook. When I video chat, i have all the new options including the effects, except the ability to invite more than one person into the video chat. When i press the "+" button the only option i get is "share a file with ichat theater"
i can video chat with more than one person as long as i am invited, but i cant be the one to invite an additional person.
Why can't i invite more than one person to a video chat?

Hi
First have you set the Quicktime streaming setting, goto sys prefs/quicktime/streaming/streaming speed, set to 1.5mbps
In ichats prefs click on video and change bandwidth limit to 500.
Restart iChat.
Also do a speed test and tell us the up and download speeds http://www.speedtest.net/

  • I cant text chat with more than one person

    I can normally text chat just fine, but when i try to invite more than one person to chat, i get the following error message
    Couldn’t request chatroom “[screenname here] 619401”. (Your message is too long to be sent. Please shorten it.)
    (obviously where it says screenname here, thats my screen. all lowercase letters, no spaces or weird characters.
    the weird thing is if someone else invites me to a multi person text chat, it works just fine. i just cant initiate it. any suggestions???

    Here is how I initiate a text chat.
    (0) Click on one of my buddy names in my Buddy List to highlight it.
    (1) ⌘ click on the next buddy I want to add to highlight him, too.
    (2) Repeat the ⌘ clicks for all the other buddies I want in the chat.
    (3) Click the "A" at the bottom of my buddy list to initiate the multiple-party chat.
    Try that, and see if it works for you. If you can make it work for two, it should work for more.

  • Cannot have more than one Mobile item for a person

    Hi,
    I cannot have more than one mobile phone item for a person. In India some of them carry dual SIM card phones and both will be valid. In Lumia 800, I dont see an option to add two mobile items. I can do with a work around by choosing one mobile item with Windows Live Account and another with Google Account. But then that is not the right way to do it. If I need it both on same account, then I cannot do it.
    This feature is available in all the Android phones. Also i am facing another issue is that Lumia 800 does not sync any mobile item #2 of Google account, so I have to go to Google and manually add that phone number to my phone, which is painful.
    Hope Microsoft is listening.
    But I really like the way the facebook, SMS and all other chat are sync'ed in one place.
    Regards,
    -Srinivasan.

    The wierd thing is they have duplicates for Home/Work but not for Cell. I have the odd contact that has two cell phones. Really only two work arounds, use one of the other available types as a secondary cell number or what I do is create two contacts, one in Exchange and one on Live. Since my main account is Exchange, I put the secondary number in the Live contact, then on the phone I link the two together. This way I see two cell numbers for one contact.

  • Cannot chat with more than one person.

    Running iChat AV 2.1, only text chatting via Rendevous in OSX 10.3.9. I can't chat with any more than one person. It sure would be helpful.
    I've tried selecting two people and opening a new chat--I get the error message "Could not create chat with these participants". When more than one person is selected, the A button at the bottom is grayed out.What do I need to do?
    PowerMac G5   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    Hi Barry,
    Bonjour in iChat require that ports 5297, 5298 and 5353 are open in your routing device (if you have one)
    I have seen this problem reported before. I do not know that there is a specific fix for this.

  • Cannot run more than one instance of a remote app in remote desktop services Server 2012

    All,
    I installed "Remote Desktop Services (RDS) Quick Start Deployment for RemoteApp, Windows Server 2012 Style" using the instructions here http://blogs.technet.com/b/yungchou/archive/2013/02/07/remote-desktop-services-rds-quick-start-deployment-for-remoteapp-windows-server-2012-style.aspx
    I need to set up an image viewing program (Olyvia) to allow students using Macs and iPads access to this windows only application in order for them to get their work done.  We may have 12 or more students accessing and trying to run the Olyvia application
    at any one time.
    All works good, except that I cannot run the Olyvia application (setup as a remoteapp program) more than one instance at a time.  That is, when I start up "olyvia" on a Mac, it works great.  If I leave it up and running, and then try
    and start up "olyvia" on an iPad (using different accounts), I get the following error message:
    "Cannot run more than one instance of this program simultaneously.  Either the program is already running, or it has not been terminated completely."
    I need to understand the root issue.
    1.  Is this a licensing issue?  So, I need to add some CALs to the RDS server?
    2.  Is this a application issue with "olyvia"?  So, no matter what I do, it is not going to be able to be used by more than one person at a time when configured as a remoteapp?
    3.  Did I not "publish" the application correctly?
    4.  Is this happening because I followed the "quick start" guide?
    Appreciate any help I can get on this.  We have no problem getting CALs, I just need some help with the root issue.
    Thanks,

    Hi Geoff,
    Each application uses different techniques for determining if multiple instances are running.  If you can determine what method it is using then perhaps you could use App-V or other virtualization software.
    In the best case you really should direct your question to the maker of Olyvia.  The reason I said that is they specifically designed their software to prevent multiple instances, so the first question is, why?  Is it related to Licensing? 
    Compatibility?  If you knew the specific reason(s) why they are doing it and the technique used then at the point using a virtualization technique may be the best option.

  • After i downloaded Firefox 7, I cannot open more than one page at a time. I have done everything you suggested about ad-on, etc. Other people are having problems. Can I get reall help with this or should I just reload Firefox 4?

    Firefox 7 is a dud. Cannot open more than one tab at a time, will not open additional pages. Nothing you suggested has worked.
    Can I take down Firefox 7 and reload Firefox 4?
    I need to talk with a live person! I am real disappointed with this.

    Sorry there is no telephone support. You could try the IRC if you want a quick response, ( whilst it is [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/ask open] )
    Firefox 4 is not supported, but firefox 3.6 is

    There is a change to a preference which may help, post back with more details of your problems please.

  • Outlook (ex Hotmail) on iPhone refuses to send e-mail to more than one person

    Hi,
    I have two questions today...
    When I try to send an e-mail to more than one person from my @outlook.com address on my iPhone it fails everytime and a message pops up that it could not connect to the server. Sending e-mails to one person at a time works perfectly. I think this is a Microsoft issue as I had to verify that I was "human" before I could send a test e-mail to more than one person while logged into the Outlook website on my PC. I never had problems like this on my old Gmail and Ymail accounts. Any ideas how to fix this?
    Alternatively, I can use my @icloud.com e-mail address, but this leads to my second question. Apple states that I cannot use my iCloud e-mail address as my Apple ID. I do however not want to keep two mailboxes. Can any e-mails Apple send me (eg. receipts for purchases, etc) be sent to my iCloud address? I'll can then just keep the other e-mail address just for the Apple ID but do not have to monitor it. It this can be done please advise where I can change this.
    Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

    Some style rules that Firefox handles well on the screen can cause this problem. Many email sites have a print button which simplifies the message format and removes navigation elements, etc., and Firefox generally handles print-formatted pages better. If your email site doesn't have print-formatted pages or those do not print, a "hack" is to select the text you want to print and then choose the Selection option in the print dialog.
    To hide email addresses from recipients, you need to place them in the BCC field. What do you put in the TO field in that case? You can use your own address.

    You have 2 activations and the licenses is tied to you personally and you only. You cannot let other people use your software (unless they are family).

  • Can you call more than one person on skype?

    When you are on Skype can you video chat with more than one person / conference call?

    Yes. Microsoft owns Skype. So signing in with a Microsoft Account will log you into skype on that account.
    You can initiate a multi part conference call from a computer opt an iPad that is looged on using a Microsoft Account.
    Buit you can also start a peer to peer call from your iPad.

  • Will not send text to more than one person

    All of a sudden my phone will not send text message if it is going to more than one person.  Plus it would not send a video that I received in a text message.  In the past I could send a text message to more than one person and could send videos.  Any ideas?

    Are you retaining copies of sent texts? My coworker had over 500 messages
    in a sent text folder.

  • In Imovie '11, how can I drag more than one set of video clips to my project?

    In  Imovie '11, how can I drag more than one set of video clips into my project.  I know how to highlight in yellow and drag the set, but can I drag a group of sets?  Thanks

    To select multiple clips, hold down the command key as you click multiple clips. Then you can drag them all at once.
    To drag all clips at once, select one, then Edit/Select All. Then drag them all.

  • Since downloading the iOS on my iPad, I cannot download more than one pdf from mail to iBooks.  I have to shut down y iPad and start again.  Any suggestions?

    Since downloading iOS on my new iPad, I cannot downlaod more than one pdf from mail into iBooks.  I have to shut down my iPad and restart it to save a second pdf. Wasn't a problem with the old operating system.  Any suggestions?

    It seems that I have solved my issue by performing a full factory reset (erasing all content, something which I had hoped to avoid) restoring from an iCloud backup did not alleviate the issue, I had to set up as a new iPad.
    Hopefully anyone else else who has this issue in the future will be able to find this.
