Does Facetime work with iChat?

I want to video from our house MAC to my kids iTouch 4th gen (which has Facetime). How do I set up this relationship? OR will I have to use Skype to accomplish video chat?

iChat does not connect to FaceTime.
Easiest way to video with iPod touch iOS4.1 is to get a matching iPod touch and activate FaceTime on it. If you already have iPhone4, you can use it instead of the second iPod touch.
How do I set up this relationship?

Skype will video chat between computers, but not with iPod Touch or iPhone.

    Does facetime work w/ Ichat?

    Hi,
    No.
    Face Time and iChat are two different apps.
    They are similar in some respects but cannot be linked.

  • USB Camera does not work with iChat

    Hello,
    I'm having a terrible time getting my ToUcam Pro II to work with iChat. I downloaded the iUSBcam program. That didn't work. I downloaded the program Macam, and copied the proper file into the Quicktime Library (as suggested) and that didn't work. I downloaded IOXwebcam, and got an error stating that it wouldn't run due to the fact that it didn't have the proper security settings. Sigh.
    So... what am I to do?
    I'd like to buy a webcam that does, actually, work with my 8 month old Mac Pro 4 core mac desktop, but the iSight camera is ridiculously expensive. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
    Brad

    An X-box 360 cam will do it although not in that list.
    Anything that is USB 2.0 and marked UVC compliant or Vista Certified.
    Be Aware some Mac Keyboards do not have USB 2.0 ports.

    (1) FaceTime cannot work with iChat.
    *FaceTime ONLY works with other FaceTimes*:
     • iPhone 4 http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/facetime/
     • iPod touch Gen4 http://www.apple.com/support/ipodtouch/facetime/
     • FaceTime (beta) on iNtel Mac w/OS X 10.6.4 or later http://www.apple.com/mac/facetime/
    *FaceTime works with _NO OTHER_ app from Apple, Skype, or anyone else*.
    (2) You do not tell us which imac you use, so we cannot give a yes or no answer to your question about whether it is possible to use ichat *_on your mac_* to communicate with someones iPod or iPhone with facetime.
    The answer to your question is yes, FaceTime is possible, but *ONLY IF* your Mac is an iNtel Mac that is using Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6.4 or later) with the FaceTime beta application software.

  • Does iMessage work with Ichat?

    Will IChat work with Imessage or, will apple be creating an App for Imessage for Lion.

    Hi,
    In Messages you can have AIM accounts (Now listed as AOL)
    Some Apple IDs issued by Apple (@mac.com and iCloud linked @me.com and @icloud.com) are also valid AIM names.
    This may mean you had entered the Apple ID you used for iMessages as an AIM account before.
    iMessages and AIM are separate Services and you cannot chat from one to the other.
    To be clear the app is called Messages.
    It can have an iMessages account based on a "registered" Apple ID.
    It can have AIM accounts which might be based on Apple IDs as above.
    It can have Jabber accounts which include Google Talk and Facebook Chat IDs
    It can use Yahoo IDs (Must be registered with Yahoo) for Text only chats.
    There is also a Bonjour account which can be enabled and this allows you to Chat on your LAN with other Macs (using iChat or Messages Bonjour accounts).
    Whilst you do not have to have the iMessages and the Bonjour accounts active you cannot delete them from the list in Messages.

  • Does FaceTime works with an iMac 2006 ? (intel 2Ghz Core 2 Duo with 3GB ram ?

    I have an IMac 2Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo with 2GB ram.  I have an Apple ID that is working properly for many years.  When I want to activate FaceTime, it gives me an error of ID.  I have checked my ID in iTune and it is fine.  What should I do ?
    My OS is Lion 10.7.1.

    It is sometimes very peculiar to observe the side effects of some systems settings, but this would be an odd 'fix' if it were to work. Aside from anything else, the energy saver settings impact the system only when it's running since they are integral to MacOS. It's difficult to imagine how these could affect the cold-booting of the machine - though it isn't impossible of course, in as far as changing the energy saving settings might impact on parameter RAM.
    However, even if it were to actually resolve this, you would need to switch back to the prior settings to make sure it remained 'fixed', since you hardly want a Mac that limits your choice of any settings that should be available to you.
    And while I think, it may actually be worth resetting PRAM as follows:
    -Shut down the computer.
    -Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in the next step but one.
    -Turn on the computer.
    -Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    -Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    -Release the keys.

  • HT203585 Does facetime work with Yosemite?

    I'm trying to download Facetime from the App Store and I'm getting a message saying "Facetime can't be installed on HD because the version of OS X is too new".  My OS is Yosemite 10.10.1.

    The FaceTime app in the App Store is only for OS X 10.6. You have FaceTime built-in. It's in the Applications folder, unless you somehow managed to delete it.

    Do you think that apple has to   reset in their database of the old serial number attached with my phone number and that’s why I can´t activate imessage and facetime with my number in the new iphone 4s?? 

    I understand all of this Meg; that is why I bought an Iphone; but never expected my phone not even give a at least a 24 or even 12 hours....I work 12 hour shifts and also would expect to have to charge each night but not twice a day or more.  I am not always somewhere I can charge my phone.

  • Does the new AIM Triton work with Ichat?

    Hi,
    Does anyone know if the new AIM Triton works with Ichat AV? I know the Beta version was not working but don't know about the new triton release.
    Also, has anyone tried video/audio communication between Trillian and Ichat? Does it work? Is it better than AIM?
    Thanks,
    Stefano

    I have been working with the Triton on a PC and after much research (frustration), I have found this stated on the AIM support site:
    http://www.aim.com/helpfaq/startingout/getstarted.adp?aolp=#six
    Q: Is AIM Triton compatible with AIM 5.9, AOL 9.0 and iChat?
    A: : AIM Triton works seamlessly with AIM 5.9, AOL 9.0 and iChat. You can send and receive instant messages with your buddies using any of these clients. Certain features may not work across all clients at this time. Voice Chat with more than two people only works with other Triton users. Video Chat will work only between two Triton users at this time.
    So after reading around, I believe the 5.9 will video to the iChat 3's but I haven't had the time to try. Other posts suggest this to be true. Including many by Ralph.

  • I created an Apple ID using my ISP Email when I registered at the Store/Apple Support Communities/iTunes/Face Time and it does not work in iChat. Why Not ?

    Question:-
    I created an Apple ID using my ISP Email when I registered at the Store/Apple Support Communities/iTunes/Face Time or other portal and it does not work in iChat. Why Not ?
    Answer:-
    For a Name to work in iChat it has to be an Valid AIM screen Name.
    Only Apple IDs from the @mac.com ending names registered here  and the Mobileme (@Me.com ending) names are Valid with the AIM service as well as being Apple IDs
    (I am still working on info about registering with iCloud at the moment but if this does give you an @Me.com email it may well be a valid AIM name as well)
    NOTES:-
    The @mac.com page works by linking an external (Non Apple) email with a @mac.com name.
    This External Email cannot be one linked to an Existing Apple ID (you have to use a second email or register at AIM )
    The options at AIM are to use your existing email or create new name and link the existing only for Password recovery
    MobileMe (@me.com ending names) were valid Emails addresses, Apple IDs AND a Valid AIM Screen Name
    @mac.com names look like emails but are only Apple IDs and iChat/AIM Valid Screen Names.
    The AIM registration page seems to be pushing you to register [email protected] This is relatively new and I have not followed through the pages to find out if it a valid AIM email (Previously you could register a name without an @whatever.com suffix)

    Question:-
    So I have my current [email protected] email in iChat as I thought as I had linked that to an Apple ID it was a Valid iChat Name.  It keeps coming up with a UserName or Password Invalid message.  What do I do next ?
    Answer:-
    Open iChat
    Go to the Menu under the iChat name in the Menu Bar and then Preferences and then Accounts in the new window.
    Commonly written as iChat > Preferences > Accounts as directions/actions to take.
    If it displays with a Yellow running name in the list you have a choice.
    Either register it at AIM (I would use a different password to the ISP Login) and then change the password only in iChat  (It may take you to confirm any Confirmation email from AIM first) in iChat > Preferences > Accounts
    Or you register a new Name at AIM (Or at @mac.com) and enter that (details below)
    If you have a Blue Globe name  (@mac.com) that will not Login the chances are that it the password that is the issue.
    Apple lets you create longer passwords than can be used with the AIM Servers.
    Change the Password at iForgot to no more than 16 characters.
    Then change the password in iChat as details above.
    Adding a new Account/Screen Name in iChat (that is valid with the AIM servers)
    Open iChat if not launched.
    Go to iChat Menu > Preferences > Accounts
    Click the Add ( + )  Button at the bottom of the list.
    Choose in the top item drop down either @Mac.com or AIM depending on what you registered
    Add the name (with @mac.com the software will add the @mac.com bit)
    Add in the password.  (If you don't add it now iChat will ask you each time you open it)
    Click Done.
    The Buddy List should open (New Window)
    The Accounts part of the Preferences should now have the new name and you should be looking at the details.
    You can add something in the Description line which will then title the Buddy List (Useful when you have two or more names) and make it show up as that in the iChat Menu > Accounts and the Window Menu of iChat when logged in.
    You can then highlight any other Account/Screen Name you don't want to use and use the Minus ( - ) Button to delete it.

    Glossary for this FAQ
    Routers: Any configurable device that sits between your computer and the internet link you have. This includes Modems that Route as well as "routers"
    Routers seem to fall into two categories
    Those that work straight from the box. See Apple Article HT1787
    NOTE :This Article has not been updated in content since Jan 04 Only being changed to an Article from the Previous Doc listing
    Even then some list that they need tweaks.
    and those that do not.
    This post will deal with what you may need to look at.
    First off make sure your device is acting as a DHCP server. (if you are already on the internet you may not have to bother with this.)
    Check in the Tiger System Preferences > Network Preference Pane, in the "Built in Ethernet" option from the "Show" drop down list.
    In Leopard the Networks are listed on the left with icons. The Airport Option will need you to access the Advance Button for the Next bit.
    Make sure the TCP/IP tab is the 'front' one. You should be able to see Configure IPv4 and it most likely reads Using DCHP. Make a note of your IP address. It will start 10.xxx.xxx.xxx or 192.168.xxx.xxx (the 'x' s will stand for any number between 1 and 255). The range 172.16.xxx.xxx is also a possible value at this point. Rarely used, but it is part of the RFC for Address Allocation for Private Internets.
    Your router is most likely to be configurable from your browser. You will need to find the IP address to type into the browser from any Readme or PDF files that came on the install disk or visit the makers website and download a manual.
    The Port Forward.com site lists many devices and clicking on one will take you to a list of Applications. This iChat will open an page that will start by telling you the defaults to access the device
    Opening or Allowing ports. Several Methods not all devices have all of them.
    DMZ (Demilitarised Zone)
    This is a less secure setting that basically opens all ports and points the incoming data to your computer. (not helpful if you have more than one computer on your LAN). It can be considered as an extreme form of Port Forwarding
    Port Forwarding (also Virtual Server or Pin Holes)
    These settings are usually found in an Advanced setting.
    You may need to set an incoming IP address (Usually 0.0.0.0 to any outside server), a port that data will arrive on, the Inside computer's IP address (your computer) and the port it will deal with the data on and the protocol it will use.
    See this pic for an example of the description above.
    In this example shows that on some Port AND Protocols need to be listed.
    iChat uses TCP and UDP so some devices will need the ports listed one by one and some settings done twice, once for each protocol. The example above has a "Both" setting
    See Apple Article HT1507 Previously Doc 93208 for more information. This is the Tiger iChat 3 list. The same ports are needed for Leopard except for these changes
    My Note 2:
    On the first link Note 1 under tables in that link would be better if it read:
    " 1. All iChat AV traffic is UDP -
    except for ports 5190 and 5298, which need to be open for both TCP as well;
    and 5220, 5222, which need to be open for TCP only. "
    Note 2
    GoggleTalk needs port 5223 on TCP. Also note the Server name for iChat 3 set ups
    UPnP Universal Plug n Play.
    This is a simple Plug and Play type of setting. iChat can find it's own way through a router if the device has this capability.
    By Not doing Port Forwarding, Triggering or DMZ and enabling UPnP the application is allowed to control the modem and the ports that are open.
    They close after the application has finished with them on a timed basis.
    On some devices the number of "hops" (how far away the UPnP can be "seen") can be reduced from a default of 4)
    Trigger Ports
    Some devices offer a security measure that works by a first or trigger port receiving a data packet and then opening further ports when accepted.
    The first port for incoming Video or Audio invites is port 5678.
    Pre iChat 4
    When you click on the invite window the process moves in to port 5060 (so these will need to be opened by the trigger port) for negotiating the final group of ports from the group of 20 (16384-16403 These will need to open when the trigger says so as well). Therefore port 5678 triggers ports 5678, 5060, 16384-16403. All on UDP. Port 5190 neeeds to trigger port 5190 for both TCP and UDP.
    See this variation where only the ports listed above are completed.
    The other single ports need to be set one by one in addition. (5220,5222, 5223 5297, 5298, 5353)Replace
    iChat 4
    The port used in IChat 4 is port 16402 instead of port 5060. The group of 20 ports is reduced to 10 (16393-16402). This is because all the In and Out Audio and Video data is on one port. Other that than the settings are the same.
    At this time there is no Info on the ports the Screen Sharing in iChat 4 uses.
    Wireless
    Here you will have to read around but this Apple Article TA25949 Previously Doc 58514 might be a good starting place.
    Essentially whether you are wireless or Ethernet to your routing device makes very little difference to the way you do things.
    Your computer will get two IPs from a DHCP server if you are connected by both methods. (iChat does not like this)
    Multiple devices
    Make sure only one is acting as a DHCP server. Make sure wireless devices are bridged properly.

    At this time there is no Info on the ports the Screen Sharing in iChat 4 uses.
    Wireless
    Here you will have to read around but this Apple Article TA25949 Previously Doc 58514 might be a good starting place.
    Essentially whether you are wireless or Ethernet to your routing device makes very little difference to the way you do things.
    Your computer will get two IPs from a DHCP server if you are connected by both methods. (iChat does not like this)
    Multiple devices
    Make sure only one is acting as a DHCP server. Make sure wireless devices are bridged properly.
    Further Help
    I have found that this site (ADSLGuide) to be helpful.
    It is British based but I have linked you to the Apple Related Discussions Forum.
    Eliminating Problems on my Personal web pages.
    The ports and their function within iChat. (my personal Web pages again)
    This is not a step by step approach. You will have to read around the information about your device.

    Follow the info on the next.
    This site is godd for finding out the Default IP to use in a web browser and the default User ID and Passwords needed to do so.
    Gives you a chance to look at at pics to give clues to where some of these other things are.

  • Is there an external camera for ipad1 available and does it work with 4.3.5?

    Is there an external camera for ipad1 available and does it work with 4.3.5? Really hoping to get facetime going on my ipad

    AFAIK, no one makes an add on camera for the iPad1.  If selling your iPad1 and buying an iPad2 is out, then you can use Skype on the iPad1.  Although the other person won't see you, the iPad1 will receive Skype video so you can see them, if they enable their video.

  • PC Webcam works with iChat and iSight

    Before I purchase a web cam for my PC I need to know if it will work with iChat and iSight. Will I need to install any third party software for my mac or PC?

    Hi Gene,
    You will need to make a choice between AIM and Trillian
    The AIM app is free but does not Audio only Chat to iChat users and has a very small pic.
    Trillian costs $25 for the Pro version to Video chat but has a Bigger pic and can do full screen. The Basic version can alos Audio only chat to iChat users. Trillian can also join other IM services.
    More info on setting up AIM on the PC http://www.ralphjohnsuk.dsl.pipex.com/page12.html and the XP Service Pack 2 firewall. The Firewall will need to have Trillain enabled though it as well if you use that.
