Chat room test

Last weekend I finally got my camera to be recognized by iChat.
During the weekend I tried to set up my girlfriend and brother with an account and make a connection.
Me--iChat and iSight with AIM, they, PCs with digicams with USB set to pc camera.
It didn't work, but no biggie--I'm just testing for home office use in the future when I go freelance. So I gave up pretty quick.
So I need to test with other people. The autoresponders in this FAQ worked:
FAQ: Want to Test your iSight With Another Person?
But the other profiles (inviting tests) are not active, as far as individual testing.
So I googled video chat rooms to test, but I got a bunch of nasty sites that made me afraid for my browser.
So where can I go to test, a place where I don't have to give my credit card or worry about virtual STDs?
The truth is, I'm vague on the entire logic of this. I have iChat software, and AIM membership, and go to a video chat room with other people who....have the same exact thing? Or what?

Hi Matt,
Like Rj I will be happy to test with you. I keep very irregular hours so I am not online all of the time. I should be available later today if you want to try.
<-------------
see link to the right for my details.
There are also some useful iChat links at the bottom of the following FAQ.

Hope this helps

  • Firefox "froze" after I refreshed a forum chat room, but my mac didn't recognize it as a non-responsive program. I tried quitting, didn't work. I tried shutting down, all other open applications quit but firefox kept the machine from shutting down.

    Chat room was for a bbcode forum.
    I'm running a MacBook with Leopard.
    I have the latest version of Firefox.
    I can move the ff window around my screen and when i click on it my menu bar doesn't recognize that i'm in the ff window.

    i'm also having major CPU problems w/ FF 29.0.1. when i restart the app it calms down again but after loading tabs it steadily climbs up to 100% after not too long. i have checked out the 2 CPU links/articles above and do all the basic troubleshooting and tips, but with all the FF tools & add-ons isn't there some sort of CPU monitor that has the ability to display which extensions/scripts are hogging the CPU? Activity Monitor on Mac just shows the total used by the app. it's impossible in my case to efficiently disable dozens of add-ons & scripts, restart, and test each one by one b/c it can take several hrs before the CPU starts to spike high again. i have no time for this.
    thanks

    Hi Surya,
    Do you want to show just 2 rows, one for an "Adjusted AC_41AB" and one for "AC_41ABC"?
    If so, could you not just choose AC_41AB and AC_41ABC as the Dimension Members, then create a local member to be the "Adjusted AC_41AB" which is a calculation of AC_41AB minus AC_41ABC. Then you could hide the non-adjusted AC_41AB row so that it's not visible?
    If I get a chance I will test it and let you know.
    Regards
    John.

  • Safari 5 crashes when leaving a java enabled chat room

    I have went to the same chat room for years but and not had any problems but since the Safari 5 update, when I exit the chat room Safari always crashes and brings up the error report screen.
    the address for the chat room is:
    http://chat.parachat.com/chat/login.html
    I can only say that it happens in the Lobby Room because that is the only room I ever go in. So whether or not it happens in any of the other rooms I don't know; I would imagine however, that if it happens when exiting the chat room from the Lobby Room then it would happen when exiting it from any of the other rooms.
    Can everyone else tell me if their Safari does the same thing (its easy to try just follow the link and type in test test or something for the user name and then click connect. then click actions and exit and close safari with the little X)
    Also can someone please tell me how I might fix this because it is really annoying.
    Thanks a huge bunch
    P:S
    I have already sent several error reports to Apple about this issue and looking through the topics here, everyone else seems to be having various other issues as well. It seems that the new Safari is quite bug prone I had to uninstall it off my Windows computers completely because it wouldn't even let me use the most basic of functions :(:( I really like Safari both on Macs and Windows (sad face)

    this question has just been marked as answered to clear it from the unresolved questions list.

  • Dreamweaver CS4 and SWF Chat Room Question

    I am installing a chat room and using a black HTML page to put it on as I want to have a certain background.and its a SWF file. I tried the play button but
    nothing happens. I followed the directions from this site called:  "Insert and Preview SWF Files."
    I do have Adobe Flash 10 installed.  The gray placeholder is there and I do have the two dependent files as well.  Do I have to upload this to my server before I can test it and see if all is working properly. I can send the original zipped file to you if you want to see what i have.  I was also playing around with it at first before I got the article ("Insert and Preview SWF Files.") and when i copied all the code from a number of different files it was all showing up but still did not work. The directions for the software give you a link to my files to put in and thats it and say to upload to my server.
    Please let me know and if you need the software Let me know an email to send it to you. I dont see an "attach file" button in here.

    Hi there,
    better post your question in the regular Dreamweaver General Discussions forum. The current forum deals with questions which are related to the Dreamweaver extension ADDT, which generates server-side code and has been discontinued over a year ago, that is, the number of fellow forum participants is much larger in the regular Dreamweaver forums.
    Cheers,
    Günter

  • I can not get sound in the yahoo chat room

    for some strange reason I cannot get sound in the chat rooms when people are playing music

    when you start your application you create an instance of Frame2 whose reference is stored in variable frame2.
    Now in your class Grow you create another instance of Frame2 whose reference is stored in variable f and set its label to "Class test". This instance is not the same as the instance which you are running.
    You need to make class grow as an inner class of Frame2 and then set then set the label of the instance which is running.
    Here's the working code -
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    import javax.swing.*;
    public class Frame2 extends JFrame {
        public Frame2() {
            super("test");
            this.setBounds(100,100,200,100);
            JPanel jp=new JPanel();
            jp.setBackground(Color.cyan);
            jb=new JButton("test");
            jl=new JLabel("this is a test");
            jp.add(jl);
            jp.add(jb);
            Container contentpane=this.getContentPane();
            contentpane.add(jp,"South");
            jb.addActionListener(new ActionListener(){
                public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
                    g=new Grow();
                    g.start();
        public void setString(String str){
            jl.setText(str);
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            Frame2 frame2 = new Frame2();
            frame2.show();
        private JButton jb;
        private final JLabel jl;
        private Grow g;
        class Grow extends Thread{
            public void run(){

  • Firefox crashes when I attempt t enter a SPCN chat room

    Firefox immediately crashes when I attempt to enter a SPCN Chat Room. This forces me to use MS Internet Explorer which i hate to do.
    I am told there there is a plug in that solves this problem, but cannot find it.

    You can uninstall (remove) the Java Console extensions and disable the Java Quick Starter extension, you do not need them to run Java applets.
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Java#Multiple_Java_Console_extensions
    See also http://www.java.com/en/download/help/quickstarter.xml - What is Java Quick Starter (JQS)? What is the benefit of running JQS? - 6.0
    Disable the Java Quick Starter extension: Tools -> Addons -> Extensions<br />
    Control Panel -> Java -> Advanced tab -> Miscellaneous -> Java Quick Starter (disable)
    See:

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting&#58; Make a new profile]]
    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins"
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

  • Setting up Chat Room with Jabber

    I am trying to create a chat room for multiple users all using a Jabber (gmail) account within ichat.  Is there a special naming protocol to creating a chat room or do you need to create an address somewhere before joining this chat room?
    I have no problem doing it with my .me account but for work everyone is on gmail so we ideally be able to use the Jabber accounts for group chats. 
    I did mange to "create" one called [email protected] (our domain) but when I tried to join I get the grey spinning wheel and don't get any further.
    Clearly I'm missing something so any help would be appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Sarah

    Hi,
    GoogleTalk is supposed to allow group chats.
    These tend to be called "Conferences" on most Jabber servers.
    Most Jabber servers have a section of additional itme your can "register" for and Login to.
    However to do this takes a third party app like Psi.
    This can then do "Service Discovery" on the server in question and show what features you can sign up for.
    These can include "Transports" that allow you to add Buddies from different services and Conference calls.
    Having said that if you do Service Discovery on GoogleTalk you find nothing
    Many apps also presume the server name is the last part of your user ID and for Google with it's @gmail.com and @googlemail.com this does not work properly in some of these apps.
    This page has Instructions for how to set up a Transport to MSN using Psi and you can see the Service Discovery panel.
    Essentially a room has to be given a Name and this is coupled with the Jabber server name it is on so that it looks something like this:-
    [email protected]
    The room "ralph" is on the conference server at the jabber.org.uk server.
    Substituting [email protected] does not seem to work as a room name.
    It may pay to start from a  Web Browser login and see if a room name becomes apparent that way.
    Edit
    The last two "links" I have tried to remove the Links but they keep get added back

  • Chat room using multicast socket

    hi-
    i have a chat room based on multicast socket with a SWING GUI interface. i want group members to be able to establish a shared secret(bases on extended n-party diffie-hellman algorithm) to encrypt all messages exchanged . Re-keying happens upon member join and leave. In order to do key agreement i need to identify the number of subscribers in the multicast chat room all time. i am having trouble setting up a centralized counter to keep track of distributed users 'cause each time a user joins the chat he or she invokes a different copy of the chat program(command line usage: java chatroom <user name>). please help me setting up a counter to count the subscriber and identify joins and leaves.... my main questin is where within the program to set up a counter variable like this to keep track of distributed users? please help...thanks!

    thanks for your reply... ummm yeah securing a chat room based on multicast poses many problems mainly because of the lack of a chat server. i really haven't gotten any of them sorted out. well the only reason to use encryption is to provide perfect forward secrecy and backward secrecy, meaning a user who just joined the chat room can't decipher any previous session of conversation prior to his join and a user who just left the chat room can't use the group session key he had to decrypt any future conversation. Access control and authorization is ignored. User can join the chat room without permission of the existing members.
    yes a flat hierarchy is assumed(all group members are treated equally....no fixed member is given privilege to generate and distribute keys). However, for the key agreement protocol to take place the last joined member is chosen as a group leader and is responsible of re-keying his share in the previous group session key. The newly joined member adds his share and everybody computes the new group session key based on Diffie-Hellman. This group leader role floats...
    you are right... without being able to detect joins/leaves and the correct order of those joins and leaves, none of these can be realized.
    Can i chain a separate server just to keep track of membership changes?

  • Jabber Persistent Chat Room oddity

    Hi,
    I'm currently running Persistent Chat Rooms on version 10.5.1 of Presence. We have recently been experiencing an odd problem with Chat Rooms where they are created as Private rooms, for then to randomly change to Public. The settings are locked down that once a room is created you can't then change its permissions without deleting and recreating. We've had Persistent Chat Rooms set up for a couple of months and its only been the past couple of weeks we have noticed the problem.
    Has anyone else come across this and if so found a fix? I've not found anything else on the forum regarding this so am wondering if we're the lucky ones!
    Any help would be appreciated,
    Rob

    Hi Rob 
    I would start looking at the history of changes i did on the Presence for Persistent Chat rooms on the Group Chat and Persistent Chat option. Specifically under member settings.
    Share your screenshot of the above page i will try to replicate in my lab, and also mention the Jabber version you are using.

    To be perfectly honest I don't know the answer.

  • After updating my ipad2 to ios6 my favorite chat room is not working. They can see me but I can't see them.

    Before I updated everything worked fine.  This is thru safari on the full version of a website.  Now after I enter my chat room and everyone can see me and what I type but I can't see them.  I was on the phone with apple.  1st call, they had me empty cookies and cache, that didn't work. I did a hard reset? held the off button and the round button.  that didn't work, but I was able to see one persons "hi" post.  2nd call they had me do a reset, thru the general in settings(I was also transferred to a supervisor which makes me think that I am the only one with this problem).  I was able to see 5 people say hi, but still unable to see them after the intial. 
    I use to see the little pinwheel at the top left hand side next to ipad and the signal strength pinwheel all the time but now I don't see it doing that. While in the chat.
    Any ideas.  The supervisor sorta suggested tap-a-talk.  But I didn't want to spend the money if I dont have to and Im not sure it would fix this..
    I did notify the website the chat room is thru so they know also, but no answers yet.

    Hi
    Have you set the Quicktime settings, goto sys prefs/quicktime/streaming/streaming speed set what you get from your ISP go no higher then 1.5mbps(dont use automatic)
    In ichats prefs click on video and change bandwidth limit to NONE.
    Restart iChat.
