Chat window with active caller always closed by de...

Since updating to the latest version of Skype v6.18 for Mac, the chat window for active callers is always automatically closed. For example, if I call someone and then want to send them a link via chat, I need to click the "+" icon, then choose "instant message" to open the chat box again. For each new call, the chat box is automatically closed again. I manage a remote team of developers and as you can imagine we use Skype for calls and chat all the time. We're always sending chat messages while on a call and it's super annoying to have to re-open the chat box for every active call every time. I can't understand the point of this except to say that it must be a bug and so I'd like to flag it with you to fix.

I agree. This is definitely an annoyance for me and my team. Like the original poster I manage a remote team of developers and post messages in nearly every call. Having the message window hidden on every new call causes an extra few keystrokes on almost every call. Of course this isn't a show-stopping issue for me since there is an easy workaround but it does decrease Skype's usability for my use case.

Is there a way to open a chat window with lookout?

I know there is a windows-chat embeded in Windows but our IT department has it blocked in all the machines. So I created, using a run object, a wordpad window to chat remotelly with the operator of the system using VNC4.0. Problem is that as soon as a new lookout screen is open, wordpad goes behind lookout. This VNC does not have chat windows.
I have secured lookout with passwords, the operator can not get inside the computer when lookout is open. No menu bar, no task bar. Lookout shutdwon the computer by a button on screen connected to a run object. When computer boots up, lookout opens automatically becasue its icon is in the start up file. This way of blocking the access to inside the PC works great but once wordpad windows goes back, I don't see a way to make it visible again without breaking the security of Lookout.
It will be really handy to have sort of chat window that lookout can open and close by itself, without asking for the blessing of the IT department.
Any ideas?
Note: I tried also the web server ponting to a wordpad file previously saved in some place. The inconcvenience of this is that the Web object cannot be moved around to uncover buttons of lookout screens. It doen't work 100% fine either as a chat windows.
Again: Any ideas?

Create Comments:
Create an Access database. Table: Notepad Fields: Username (Text), ComputerName(Text),TimeStamp(DateTime),Comment(Memo)
Create TextObject called ChatComment.
Create PushButton called MakeComment.
Create and SQLExec object. Connect to the database.
SQL Query "INSERT INTO Notepad (Username,ComputerName,TimeStamp,ChatComment) VALUE "'" & $system.Username & "', '" & $system.Computername & "'," & now() & ", '" & ChatComment & "')"
(This SQL query is just PSEUDO CODE, it is not complete!)
Connect SQLExec.Execute=MakeComment (pushbutton).
Read Comments (Most Recent 15):
Create DataTable object, set as ODBC and connect to database.
SQL Query: "SELECT TOP 15 * FROM Notepad ORDER BY DateTime ASC"
Set a timer object or pushbutton to DataTable.ExecuteSQL
The datatable should have fields like A (Username), B (Computername), C(TimeStamp), D (ChatComment)
Make your displays.
This is all pseudo-code type. But that will get you close to what you want.

Multiclip editing does not update Canvas window with active angle

Hi,
I am trying to do some multiclip editing but for some reason when cutting between angles the canvas viewer does not update with the video. Once I stop playback the cuts are all created properly and the video changes when playing back again. However, when editing the video does not change to the active angle. The audio changes but the video does not.
I have the multiclip playback setting in RT enabled and the canvas and viewer windows synced and matching each other when playing back, and video + audio is set in the sync menu.
I'm now stuck! and would greatly appreciate some help.
Thanks
Phil

Welcome to the family.
I don't mean to brush you off because I understand your frustration. But what we know about mutliclip is that it really does work, if you follow the rules completely. We also know that most of the "multiclip doesn't work" posts are resolved by encouraging the user to be objective and to simply recheck the setup steps in the manual, one at a time. (Editorially speaking: There are too many of them, there are too many stupid gotchas in the multiclip setup. True. Hope springs eternal that FCP6 may fix many of these things. It should be a one-click solution.)
You can search for multiclip here and, after filtering out the nonsense from elitists like me, you should be able to detect something in your configuration that might be keeping you from getting the performance you are expecting.

Unable to login @ login window with Active Directory User

I successfully bound my test machine to Active Directory and can search using dscl and id. I can also su to my active directory user account an authenticate perfectly. All search bases are correct and everything else looks fine.
When I attempt to login from the login window as an AD user, the window shakes. Clicking under Mac OS X shows that "Network Accounts Available". Looks like the CLI tool "dirt" is now gone as well, although insecure it would possibly show something here.
Anyone else having issues after binding to AD? I bound using the Directory Utility gui... I have not tried using my leopard bind script yet.
Thanks,
Ken

I have pretty well the same problem. The machine was already bound to AD prior to upgrade. After could not login on with my account (jball). Can log on with other accounts from the same domain (we only have one AD domain). Can also su to jball in a terminal session. Can't access network resources with jball when I try to connect to a windows server through the finder, instantly comes up with bad username or password, doesn't even think about it.
I have removed any copies of the home folder under either /Users or /Domain as I have had problems with that before. Have repaired permissions and unbind and bind the machine to AD. Have been at this all day now and no closer. Get these error messages in console:
31/08/09 4:49:27 PM SecurityAgent[666] Could not get the user record for 'jball@domainname' from Directory Services

How can I open individual chat windows in Skype v7...

Hi,

Closing active terminal window with applescript

I made a very basic script to lock my screen, and I like how it works. Some of my co-workers would also like it but it has one problem.
When the script runs, a terminal box pops up at the end saying [process complete]. I can click through this and I don't care, they do.
I can't just killall terminal because we use terminal and that could kill our work.
We sometimes need to see output from a script and like the process complete, so don't want to reconfigure our systems to never display it.
I'm trying to find a way to use applescript or something to kill the active terminal window, or the window with the title of LockScreen or something.
Anyone have an idea?
I was hoping something like this would exist but it doesn't seem to: tell application "Terminal" to close window

Here is an easy approach. Start Applications -> Automator
Select Application
In Automator search for "Start Screen Saver". This should be under Library->Utilities
Drag "Start Screen Saver" to the right side panel.
Save the Automator app.
If the user has System Preferencs -> Security -> Require Password ... set, then one the screen saver has started running, it will require the user to enter their password before getting control back.
This Automator app can be double clicked, it will not require the terminal.
With respect to your script. If this is a shell script, AND if you wish to continue using it, then you could create an Automator app that uses "Run Shell Script" under Automator Library->Utilities. This will also NOT require the use of Terminal, however, be aware that when Automator runs a shell script it DOES NOT have the same environment as when you are running a shell script at your Terminal prompt. There are very few environment variables set, and for example the USER, HOME, current working directory, PATH, etc... may not be the same. If you have dependencies on specific environment information, you may want to write a simple automator script the using "Run Shell Script" to output various environment information into a file so you can see what you have to work with
(id -a
pwd
echo "$#"
echo "$@"
printenv
) >/tmp/automator.environment.txt

When one window containing 1 tab is closed, the other window with several tabs closes also

I have a set of web pages that reproducibly causes Firefox to act incorrectly. When Firefox is first started I click the "Restore previous desktop" button. Then I have 2 Firefox windows. The first to open has 6 tabs; the second has 1 tab. When I close the 2nd window (with 1 tab), it also closes Firefox completely with no error message. When I run Firefox again, "Restore" creates both windows exactly as they were before.
I don't know yet if the actual URLs make a difference, but here they are anyway:

When I press Alt+D, Ctrl+C, and Ctrl+V it into this comment box, I get

When I look at the actual contents of the web page being displayed, it is the verizon wireless rebate page:
'''www.verizonwireless.com/rebates'''
The page has definitely finished being rendered (the refresh icon is displayed after the url "woot"), but the URL does not match the page. The URL displayed is not even in its proper form (i.e., www.woot.com).
Remember that this page was RESTORED by Firefox from a previous session. It is as if I was on that tab at verizon, tried to go to woot.com by typing "woot" (which would of course bring up a search rather than the web page), DIDN'T PRESS ENTER, and Firefox is duplicating that entire sequence.

With this exact set of windows and tabs, as restored by Firefox in a brand new instance of it, double-clicking the red Firefox in the top left corner of the 2nd window causes both windows to close.
I wish I could save this configuration so I could always reproduce the error, but I need my computer :)

You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox Profile Folder that store session data.
Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder

Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

Problems with Active Directory and Windows 2003

Hello,
I'm using Mac OS X Server 10.4.9 with Active Directory bound to a Windows 2003 Active Directory Domain. I can bind successfully to the domain using the graphical interface. Then in Samba I can access shared directories using Windows users. However, after some time somehow there are problems and Windows users aren't authenticated anymore on the Mac. I've looked at the firewall and there are no denied packets from the Mac. There are two servers in the domain, all clocks are synchronized and domain information is up to date. When I unbind the Mac, I can see the machine account being deleted on both domain servers and created too on both machines when I bind to the domain.
Problems occur when I try login in using ssh or samba do I think this is a problem with the AD module.
I turned on debugging messages on DirectoryServices:
sudo killall -USR1 DirectoryService
When in Windows, using the Administrator user I try:
net use \\10.0.0.1 /user:domain\Administrator
Where 10.0.0.1 is the Mac.
In the Mac I get from
tail -f /Library/Logs/DirectoryService/DirectoryService.debug.log |grep ADPlug

I really don't know what to do. The Windows Event log shows no messages. The link used to work and there have been no changes in the domain servers.
The key line seems to be:

But I don't know what that ADSEngine.mm is.
XServe G5 Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Hello.
Thanks for your reply.
I tried the net use with a drive letter with and without the /user switch. When I use a domain user domain\user1 I can't connect. When I use a user local to the XServe it works.
When I use
net use x: \\10.0.0.1\share /user:domain\user1
I get prompted for a password, but it doesn't work.
I checked the firewall and all packets to or from the mac are accepted, no denied or dropped packages.
I already went through the MS document on fw ports. Before I opened to Kerberos ports the binding failed. No the binding work OK.
Some users who were authenticated yesterday still can access files using the Windows domain accounts. It's new users trying to connect those who have problems.

IChat 4 (Leopard) Chat Window Location always the same

Anytime I get an incoming chat or if I start one, the chat window always appears in the same (annoying) place. If I rearrange the window, it doesn't stay for the next time. I never had this problem with Leopard on other Macs, and I don't know how to go about "fixing" this annoying quirk. Any ideas? Thanks.

Hi,
iChat windows follow two sets of rules depending on whether they are incoming of outgoing Chats.
This applies to all forms.
Incoming chat invites are always in the same place.
Top Right for any Incoming Text chat.
Slightly lower for Audio chats.
Video Chats are always top centre of the screen.
As you can have more than one Text chat going On subsequent Invites stack down and slightly right on each one until you get to the edge of the Screen and then start left of the first and continue (much like opening multiple Documents)
Outgoing chats are simple.
It will always be in the place you left the last chat (if you dismissed the Window).
If you do not dismiss the window then subsequent windows do the same multiple Document thing.
Chax an iChat Add-On does allow some control over the windows but I am not sure about the specifics about Incoming windows.

Not closing popup window with firing Exitplug

Hi Friends,
Could you please help me in resolving below webdynpro issue.
With a button (SAVE) click on 1st webdynpro application, Iu2019m calling a confirmation popup window using CREATE_POPUP_TO_CONFIRM method ("Data has been saved" is the message in the popup window). Then with the OK button on confirmation popup window, Iu2019m calling the EXIT plug to go to another webdynpro application
Issue is: If I execute this webdynpro application in Enterprise Portal then the confirmation popup window is not getting closed even after reaching to the 2nd webdynpro.
But If I execute direct webdynpro URL, confirmation pop is getting closed and there is no issue.

>Exit plugs do not work in a portal environment.
This is a good point that I feel silly for not remembering...
You can check if your application is running in the portal using the IF_WD_APPLICATION->GET_CLIENT_ENVIRONMENT method
lo_api_componentcontroller = wd_this->wd_get_api( ).
lo_api_application = lo_api_componentcontroller->get_application( ).
l_client_environment = lo_ap_application->get_client_environment( ).
if it is - then you can use the IF_WD_PORTAL_INTEGRATION interface
lo_portal_integration = lo_api_componentcontroller->get_portal_manager( ).
and the you can use the IF_WD_PORTAL_INTEGRATION methods to navigate eg - NAVIGATE_ABSOLUTE
call method lo_portal_manager->navigate_absolute
    exporting
      navigation_target   = 'ROLES://portal_content/blah/test_URL'
      navigation_mode     = if_wd_portal_integration=>co_show_inplace
If you're navigating in the portal you should probably have iViews set up for the apps you are calling, but it is possible to create a pass-through iView which will redirect to a URL passed as a parameter.

Keeping old chats after closing the chat window?

Is iChat capable of saving a conversation so I can still see it in the same chat window after I had closed it (say, accidentally or something)?
++ I don't need for it to save the WHOLE transcript, just the conversation for the session at the time.
Thanks!

Hi,
IF you have a chat window open that has chat that lasts several days then the Sub options of Last 5 (or whatever you chose) IMs will reduce the content down to just those if you close the window and want to see it again.
Also with iChat 6 you can set the option to have app remember what window were open on Quit and have them re-open on application launch.
This setting is for all apps and is in System Preferences > General (What used to be Appearance, top row, left end)
(I also think EZ Jim told me there is a similar Setting in the Window Menu of iChat but I can't find the chat he mentioned it in at the moment - it might have been on my other computer)
This will re-open chats that were present when iChat was last shut down (if the computer was Shut down say)
I know of no way to do this without Saving the chats.

Skype chat window doesn't show text after a call

After making a call with Skype, ANY chat window stops displaying text as you type in a message. Any ideas on how to fix this ? Skype 7.9 on MacOS Yosemite 10.10.3 Graeme

Disabling Active call window...cupc 8.6

Question from one of my users...is there a way to disable the active calls window when the user is on the phone?
I just got an earful about how annoying this is...
Thanks in advance for any advice...
~Ray

Not without disabling deskphone/softphone control and turning CUPC into an IM&P-only client. If you wanted to go that route you would want to disable the CTI, CCMCIP, and Audio profiles within the CUP Admin > CUPC/Jabber > User settings.

Using Firefox to access facebook chat Button or online friiend chat button generates a Black screen with CANNOT LOAD IMAGES and no chat window opens.

This does not happen in other browsers and it happens on a variety of computers I have access to and would seem to be a common problem but I can find no identical cases in my searches of
Firefox , Facebook or windows help or Google search. My home machine is only a P2 with WINXPCORP but works fine and I have done all updates but still have this continuing problem every time I try to use Firefox
to access Facebook chat but it does not happen with IE or chrome
The response to clicking on chat button or friend chat is a black screen with small center square box with blue title bar that says
'' VIEW IMAGE FULL SCREEN - (42) FACEBOOK X""
center of box is ""! "" mark in yellow triangle and wording
"" CANNOT LOAD IMAGES ''' OK
clicking on OK returns to facebook page but no chat opens.
Some times |VERY RARLEY if as the page loades you click on
chat button with 1/2 second of it appearing chat will open.

Hi,

To use factime on your Mac, I believe you will need to use your email address to do so instead of your wireless number. Since you can't make calls on the Mac.
