Does iChat now support iMessage?
I am trying to figure out how to send iMessage messages to my friends using iChat but failing horribly.In other words, I am iMessaging with my friends on my iPhone but would like to type a message using my laptop to them as well. Is this possible to do?
Hi,
iChat and SMS is limited to computers set up to "be in" the United states to Phones in the United States ona service that supports the AIM SMS forwarding.
That mean that out of all those "Ifs" only the location of the computer can be fooled/sort of spoofed.

Is there any quality App for the iPhone 4S similar to Google Wallet or does Apple now support Google Wallet? thanks
SOLVED!!!!!
This is the app:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/dictionary.appender/id650562573?mt=8
I emailed the maker of the app and he said to just follow these instructions:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4094
File share the .dictionary file to your ipad and then add it from the list of addable languages. It took a minute for it to show up on my ipad but it DID work. It is working with iBooks.
Happy reading.
Thanks for the help and suggestions. -
Does the Cisco3745 Support TBCT on E1's ?
Hi, The Cisco 3745 Product documentation states that TBCT supports the National ISDN-2 (NI-2)standard for T1 only. It is unclear whether E1 interfaces are supported.
I would like to know what the case is. i.e. Does Cisco now support TBCT on E1's on the Cisco 3745.I think it is a IOS based limitation and not the Hardware based as TBCT is a standard, it should also be supported in the E1 card.
Check the below URL for the IOS support.

Update my iPhone 5 to iOS 7 days ago and still neither my iMessage nor FaceTime will let me log in and I am only spastically getting even normal texts. Does anyone now how to fix this issue?
ACTIVATING FACETIME AND IMESSAGES
Activating Facetime and Imessages on your phone requires the ability to send SMS messages and depending upon where you are that might be an international SMS. Check with your carrier to see if your plan supports sending of international SMS messages. If you are having trouble activating Facetime or Imessages turn them both off on your device and reset the device (Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost)). Wait for the device to restart and wait a minute and turn Facetime and imessage back on and wait for activation. If that does not fix things read the following articles:

Does iChat support JPEG video streaming
Dear Sir,
I would like to capture image and then encode to JPEG format and then send the JPEG file to iChat 15 times per second. Does iChat can display the JPEG file properly?
Thanks!
Best Regards,
sunshine_uylOk,
Some more backing up and standing back from this.
I am still trying to interpret what it is exactly you are wishing to do.
If this "board" is something you want to use as a Camera source and it supplies or rather can supply stills of one form or another at 15fps then I don't think this is going to possible.
As one source iChat can use DV format in it's plainest form. (NOT DV or any proprietary versions)
As another iChat can since OS X 10.4.9 use the UVC driver to access USB 2.0 UVC compliant cameras
iChat has some support folders in the /System/Library and the Frameworks and PrivateFrameworks.
These control which video feeds it allows in a sort of "Native" form if you like.
This is through the CVPixelBuffer and the CVOpenGLBuffer (CV = Constant Video)
At least for iChat 4 in Leopard - I am having difficulty in working out where they have moved things in iChat 5/Snow Leopard)
Certain USB 1.1 Cameras that have Mac Drivers Installed on the Mac still need a third Party utility (iUSBCam) to convert the video from that camera into something iChat can use.
Mostly these were VGA output (See Here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Webcam#Technology)
Certain IM apps such as Yahoo for Mac use a web cam but provide a collection of rapid Stills much like you talk about to give the appearance of movement.
There are certain apps that can do the same and Stream those as a Live feed to a web site. See Evocam or Security Spy
On the other hand can iChat deal with jpegs or in fact any Still format the answer is yes.
In iChat 4 and higher there is iChat Theatre and iPhoto Share.
iPhoto Share can play a Slide Show of anything in a collection/Slide show that has been set up in iPhoto (best to turn Music Off in my book).
As this could be a folder within iPhoto I toyed with the idea of getting new pics into iPhoto fast enough to display in s Slide show but have not checked what the fastest display a Slide show can manage but doubt it is 15 a sec.
iChat Theatre can be used to display the docs from other apps
For Instance it can play Movies. If you have Quicktime Add-on plug-ins to display a movie on your Mac than it can play almost anything. (Perian can play Dvix for instance along with others and Flip4Mac can play .avi files and other Windows formats).
It can also display the slides for Powerpoint or Keynote (Pays to change the Side Ratio to 4:3 or better still Square to fit the Chat Video Chat window).
I must admit to not having tried that many other apps but the same should apply in a lot of cases.
In both case your Video feed is replaced with a "Stream" of the App or file in question.
Next.
iChat can also do Backdrops in Video Chats on Intel macs.
The Backdrop can be a single Still or a Movie (you are asked to step out of the Frame so it can register the background where you sit and then replaces that with the Movie or Pic). You don't have to step back into view and it could then "Stream" that pic.
These are created by Quartz files splitting the Cameras Feed off from the background and adding either Filters for the Effects or Adding Pics or Movies for Backdrops.
These files are created with Quartz Composer (Installed with Developers Tools on Your Install Disk > Optional Installs).
Whether Quartz Composer can be made to "See" the Input from the "board" I am not sure. (Image seems to be one Still Only and Video seems to be the Camera (I did not spend long looking at how the controls/source might be tweaked).
Thirdly.
I was discussing this with EZ Jim, a level 4 poster who hangs out mostly in the iSight Forum.
He was wondering if you meant getting the board to Chat with iChat like it was a Buddy (and then presumingly recording the Video chat, to get around the USB input constraint.
If the board was Internet able and could Interact with either a Jabber Server or the AIM Servers (run an AIM or Jabber client that was Video Capable) it would have to send data in the H264 Video format.
I don't think this is what you meant but I thought I would pose it for clarification.
Another possibility is a DV converter as a Standalone items between the board and the Mac.
I had one that had RCA, S-Video and Firewire inputs.
This would be an expensive option and depend on what outputs the board has physically
Summary.
Board as camera I don't think is likely unless it can produce DV Video
My 8 1/2 year old G4/1Ghz Dual Processor (Mirrored Door Tower) can handle an USB 2.0 UVC complaint camera.
It has handled DV input from a DV converter in the past.
It basically depends on the Pic size in this case (Aim for 640 X 480 pixels as a Max)
Boards as Means to Input a feed like other apps for iChat Theatre would depend somewhat on the working space or Doc that was created.
I would have to play around with a few more to find out what the limitation were.
(At this point I would imagine using a single file that was being updated 15 time a sec but have difficulty thinking that many processors would cope with that let alone access it at the same time as another app was updating it.)
I have a feeling iPhoto can not play a Slide Show with each pic being only 4 secs "long". It may also not cope with a folder that was having more pics added to it (Can't add Photos to Slide show on the fly as it were)
I do feel the Quartz Composer route may have merit.
Quartz Composer does allow Input from several sources an may be able to "see" the board directly over USB rather then importing a file.
In may well be able to Input a series of files which would mean the board having an App on the computer to save the files to then read.
This would require learning some new skills and take a while to set up.
Although getting Pic into iChat and sending them to 1 person in a video chat would inherently be more secure there may be other ways of getting a series of Pic as "video" feed on to a web page or other Broadcast method.
See EZ Jim's list http://www.ralphjohns.co.uk/EZJim/EZJimpage7.html in the top left hand section and Nannycam at the bottom.
If the Board can Export in Streaming Flash then also see the items 9 through 12 in this section http://www.ralphjohns.co.uk/page5.html#_othe
I may receive some form of compensation, financial or otherwise, from my recommendation or link.
Essentially I don't think there is an Easy Way to do this.

Under Snow Leopard I used a WD My World NAS to back up my Mac Pro (Mid 2010). When I upgraded to Lion I am unable to access the backup because the NAS does not yet support AFP. I have now bought a Time Capsule and want to transfer the old backup onto it.
How can I recover the NAS back up to put on my new Time Machine.
Talking to Apple Support Adviser was a waste of time on case number 239647273
Any thoughts or pointers?Keep the old OS around and just kick the tires and test new OS. Apple has a history and habit of breaking support in things like this.
You can use TimeMachine as one level of backup, and even there there were changes with Lion, I would always recommend foremost backup clones of every volume. And clone (SuperDuper etc) can be stored on something like HP NAS Media Server which also was supporting TimeMachine, iTunes - until Apple made that harder and more their own proprietary format.
Apple AirPort Time Capsule Support
Lion Communities
Cloning as a Backup Strategy
Rather than "upgrade" I would clone the system, and do a clean install, then allow Setup Assistant to import your files.

With the ios 6.1 update, does iphone 4 (a1332) now supports LTE also?
Hi guys!
With the new ios 6.1 update, does iphone 4 (a1332) now supports LTE also?
Thanks guys!Software updates cannot add hardware to the device.
iOS 6.1 adds new features/software fixes, and security fixes.
Claiming it is useless is simply uninformed and uneducated.

What type of HDD does MS-6382 support?
Hi,
My system has a MS-6382 mobo & I've got to change to the hard drive. I've been looking at ebay & the link below describes a HDD which has "ATA/133 or SATA interface and capacity of 120 GB"
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=16178&item=5208766733&rd=1

ata 133 is just a marketing gimick.............only data moves that fast is 2mb in the drives cache
the drive will run at about half that speed once the cache is cleared
dont worry about it
Er, I got another question
I'm now looking at this hitachi model:
http://www.cclonline.com/product-info.asp?id=210&pc=dealtime#
which has good reviews (probably for others in the range). I originally saw it on ebay but it turns out to be cheaper buying it from the above supplier.
The question I have is does the MS 6382 support serial ATA? I'm reasonably sure that the above drive is parallel ATA (ie compatable with the MS 6382) because of the manufacturer's info here:
http://www.hitachigst.com/hdd/support/d7k250/d7k250.htm
but I thought I'ld ask before I order it or in case I change my mind (again).
Thankyou for your help

OK, as always I waited before downloading a new OS and I'm sure glad I did. On the APP store I sorted comments by most critical...and WHOA...what is Apple doing? No support for Logic 9, MS Office? Is Apple only trying to reach the iphone/iTouch crowd? HELP! I was going to buy a new Mac pro & two 27" monitors but until I see some real problem addressing by Apple...I'll keep what I have and see how everything pans out. If anyone has any comments to ally my fears, I welcome them. I've been a devoted Mac user since 1993. 7500; G4; G5; and my latest Mac Pro...Where do I go? Again...HELP!
Hi there,
If you look through ALL the reviews, they are mainly good. I feel that Lion is an excellent upgrade, although not essential.
There have been some issues with MS Office, but right now, it is up to Microsoft to issue a Lion compatible update, which will come in time. Saying this, MS Office has been working fine on my mac, it seems to be an isolated issue.
Logic 9 seems like a strange issue. Again, an update looks to be coming soon, with Lion support.
I do not feel that apple only focusing on the iPhone and iPad user base. There are many features carried along, but the machine can still be used for pro tools and use just as well. It still is a fantastic, reliable, fast, easy to use OS, which I have had very few problems with. Some additions you may not use, but they don't get in the way. You will love the new Exposé, Mission Control, as it is great for pro users who have many windows open at once, and the new spaces. You may however, never use Launchpad, but you don't have to, just drag it away from the dock!
I really reccomend buying a mac with Lion, although if you are worried about bugs, wait a few months for the issues to be ironed out, and updates to be given. Because the update is so very cheap, I really think you can hardly go wrong. Try it out with your current mac, and if you like it, go ahead and buy your new ones.
Lion is fantastic, albeit maybe rushed.
Any other queries, just ask,

Does the iPad support flash player yet?
Does the iPad support flash player yet?
As has been said here many times now, Adobe has ceased development on all versions of their mobile Flash player, and since the chances are vanishingly small that Apple will ever develop their own, iOS devices will probably never natively support Flash content or apps. If Flash capability is criticial to your needs, you'll probably want to choose another device, though even Android and Windows phone and tablet devices are less and less capable of Flash support.
