Emoticon sign in chat window, what is yours?
I noticed that "emoticon" button in the chat window may be different, I saw it both with "smiling mouth" and with "upside down" mouth. I noticed that in different Skype clients on different machines and also on images published elsewhere like in reviews about Skype and how-to's.
"Upside-down" sign occurs not so often as "smiling". Why it differs and depends of what? I'm curious.
And what is your emoticon sign?
Solved!

Chat window stuck in minimize mode
I have a chat window that is stuck in minimize mode, unable to exit the window. Red window appears when receiving messages from buddy but cannot maximize the window. I have restarted my computer, force quit my iChat and every time I sign on that window is still minimized. Also I have tried deleting the buddy from my buddy list and adding them, that also did not work.
Hi,
Welcome to the Discussions
I am a little confused as to what you mean.
An Invite window will resolve in to a Chat window.
A Window that is open will show up the next time iChat is Opened in the place you left it.
However I have not heard of a Invite window staying on Screen and not being able to Dismiss it.
Now there are some things that might explain it.
Any Outgoing Chat window will always occupy the space it was last in when you sent an Invite and had a chat.
This can mean your Video Chat one appears near where your camera is so it appears you are looking at the camera.
A Text chat one can be dragged so low that the Text field is off the bottom of the Screen.
This can mean you cannot reach the bottom right hand corner to resize it.
You may have dragged it so low that it is hidden by the DOCK and you cannot now grab the top bar and pull it out. (Leopard will not let you do this and if Dock Hiding was On will move it upwards if the DOCK Hiding is turned Off - I cannot check Snow Leopard at the moment but expect it is the same)
If none of these covers what you have then delete com.apple.iChat.plist found in your Home Folder (Little House icon)/Library/Preferences and then restart iChat.
Amongst other things it will return Windows to their Default positions.
You will lose any settings made in the iChat Preferences that have been changed from Default (Font, Colour, Background to IM colour, Alert Sounds, Saved Transcripts etc.) and Saved Status Messages.

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.

Hi
I clicked a Flash Player upgrade notification from my system tray. I am not sure wether this caused my problem.
I go to a chat site and it uses a Flash Player for people to chat to each other. It has always worked perfectly.
Now the chat window pops up but what normally happens is in the chat window a little counter comes up as the chat window loads with the persons photo name details and thier greeting and you just begin chating. The shell comes up but there is no content in the middle where you can actually chat. It just remains white.
So far I have deleted Flash Player 10 and reinsalled. Checked Scripting enabled, Updated Java, checked Java scripting enabled. Ensured 'pop ups' are not blocked. Checked security level is "Medium". Tested that the 'F' rotates on Adobe site and Adobe site says Flash Player Installed. I can view youtube videos no problem. In fact EVERYTHING is working beautifuly other than the chat window on my chat website.
The site does a check and says Flash all ok no de bugging required.
Details:
IE8
Vista Home Edition
"F" rotates when entering Adobe website
10,1,85,3 Installed
It is driving me crazy I have tried everything to get it working.
If anyone can help I would really appreciate it.
Regards
MichaelHi eidnolb
Oh I see the hardware accelerator hooks up your graphics card on your computer to give better quality video. Very clever.
Thanks for giving me the directions to retrieve these files. I wouldn't be able to find them by myself.
Flash File contents:
Flash10k.ocx
FlashInstall
FlashUti10k_ActiveX.dll
FlashUtil10k_ActiveX
Install
NPSWF32.dll
Not sure if those files correct.
Found Shockwave Flash Object and it is Version 10.1.85.3 and is definately 'enabled'
I saw a post complaining about McAfee being loaded without actual permision. I have a Dell computer and McAfee was included with my computer so I am not sure if the included McAfee download when updating Flash Player would effect that.
Under McAfee in manage ad ons:
scriptproxy disabled
McAfee phishing filter disabled.
I didn't meet any random people on my travels today. Although I did meet this guy who told me a joke which I thought was quite funny. I will share it with you if that is ok.
A delivery guy knocks on a door to deliver a parcel. The door opens and a gentleman with a dog is standing there. Before the delivery man pats the dog he asks the man if his dog bites. The man says no. The dilevery man goes to pat the dog and the dog immediately bites his hand and growls. The delivery man says. I thought you said your dog doesn't bite. The guy says my dog doesn't bite that's not my dog.
Well I thought it was funny
Thanks for the help eidnolb

IChat chat window creates strange white bar in chat box when typing.
I made a topic about this before, but it was archived and not able to reply.
I wanted to include an image of the glitch. Here is a link to it.
http://imgur.com/2YQd0.jpg
This is not an original screen shot, just a very close photoshopped version of it. Which looks exactly like what happens.
As you can see, there is a white bar that appears in iChat chat window after it gets a scroll bar. It appears for me after I type something (so the "..." bubble appears), then delete all of it (so the "..." bubble disappears). After the "..." bubble disappears, this is when I get this white bar at the bottom of the chat window, which disappears in a split second, almost like a flash.
I know this problem is really small, but it never existed in the pervious version of iChat. And the flashing white bar bothers me!! haha. Please fix this Apple! :PThis issue seems to happen regardless of other windows open. I tried resizing the box, I do not see any white. My background image tiles itself. Without a background, you will just have white anyway, so the white bar, if it does appear, is not visible by eye.
After replicating this issue myself again, I noticed this... The person you are chatting with must of responded at least once. Also, you must delete all the text you typed in the text area, not some of it. (You have to make your "..." bubble disappear from the chat window by deleting all of what you just typed.) Once your "..." bubble goes away, it is then where you see the white bar appear over where your "..." bubble just was. And it almost slides/pans down within the chat window.
Also I just noticed, that my whole background slides/pans downward with the white box. As the white box appears, it literally pushes my background image up and then it slides back into place as the white bar slides down and disappears.
By the way, this never happened on OSX 10.4 Tiger's version of iChat. I also believe it did not happen with Leopard as well, but I would have to check with that. But from what I've seen, this is definitely an issue that appeared in the newer version(s) of iChat.
I have recorded a video of the problem so you can see it in action. It should help explain what I just wrote. Here's the link. http://tinypic.com/player.php?v=20gd4hv&s=6
Right now it's to the point where I'm just curious to why it is happening. But I would like to see it go away. -
How do you display � sign in DOS window when executing a program - problem has been set by Java Lecturer as extra credit. When using unicode value of 00A3 (Which works in our unix labs) it displays and accented U instead of the desired � sign!
Any help in gaining that much needed extra credit is much appreciated.
GARtry this
try{
OutputStreamWriter osw = new OutputStreamWriter(System.out, "Cp850");
PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(osw);
out.println("�");
out.flush();
}catch(Exception e){ System.out.println("aaaaaaaaaagggggh");}
CP850 is the DOS encoding called "Multilingual (Latin 1)" so it is likely to be what your system uses if you're in Europe. If you're in North America, your DOS encoding is likely to be CP437 ("English"), and perhaps if you're in England too, I don't know. Anyway, in the case of the UK pound symbol it won't matter because it's in the same position in both encodings. -
If my macbook won't let me sign in on facetime what should i do?
if my macbook won't let me sign in on facetime or messages what should i do?
This could be a complicated problem to solve, as there are many possible causes for it. Test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Back up all data before making any changes.
Before proceeding, test on another network, if possible. That could be a public Wi-Fi hotspot, if your computer is portable, or a cellular network if you have a mobile device that can share its Internet connection. If you find that iMessage works on the other network, the problem is in your network or at your ISP, not in your computer.
Step 1
Check the status of the service. If the service is down, wait tor it to come back up. There may be a localized outage, even if the status indicator is green.
Step 2
Sign out of iMessage on all your Apple devices. Log out and log back in. Try again to sign in.
Step 3
Restart your router and your broadband device, if they're separate. You may have to skip this step if you don't control those devices.
Step 4
From the menu bar, select
▹ About This Mac
Below the "OS X" legend in the window that opens, the OS version appears. Click the version line twice to display the serial number. If the number is missing or invalid according to this web form, take the machine to an Apple Store or other authorized service center to have the problem corrected.
Step 5
Take the steps suggested in this support article. If you don't understand some of the steps or can't carry them out, ask for guidance.
Step 6
From the menu bar, select
▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network
If the preference pane is locked, click the lock icon in the lower left corner and enter your password to unlock it. Then click the Advanced button and select the Proxies tab. If the box marked SOCKS Proxy is checked, uncheck it. You don’t need to change any other settings in the window. Click OK and then Apply. Test.
The result may be that you can't connect to the Internet at all. Revert the change if that happens, or if iMessage still doesn't work. Remember that you must Apply any changes you make in the preference pane before they take effect.
Step 7
Select from the menu bar
▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Storage
and click
Block all sites from storing information on this computer
Close the preference pane.
Step 8
Make sure you know the ID and password you use with iMessage. Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Use the search box in the toolbar of the Keychain Access window to find and delete all items with "iMessage" or "com.apple.idms" in the name. Log out and log back in.
Step 9
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
If iMessage worked in the guest account, stop here and post your results.
Step 10
Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you start up, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound outputand Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. After testing, restart as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and test again.
If iMessage worked in safe mode, but still doesn't work when you restart in "normal" mode, stop here and post your results.
Step 11
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.apsd.plist
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Restart the computer and empty the Trash.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Step 12
Reset the NVRAM.
Step 13
Reset the System Management Controller (SMC).
Step 14
Reinstall OS X.
Step 15
If none of the above steps resolves the issue, make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or contact Apple Support. When you set up a support call, select "Apple ID" as the product you need help with, not the hardware model. That way, if you're not under AppleCare, you may be able to talk your way out of being charged for the call. -
I can't find anything on this, but I'm not the only one this happens to. I use Lync 2013. I have multiple chat windows open (multiple tabs) and when I am typing in one window, Lync will all of a sudden switch windows so then all of a sudden,
I'm typing in another window! It's very annoying! It's not only when I'm typing either. I could be just viewing a chat window, and Lync will decide to just switch what chat window I'm viewing. This happens to everyone in my organization.
Anyone know what causes this or how it can be fixed? Anyone know what I'm talking about?I've never heard of that, but it's not a client feature. Do you have any touchpads or anything that might be overly sensitive? Do you have different types of workstations connection or are they all the same make/model?
Ensure Lync and Windows are both fully patched in the meantime. See if you can replicate this on a clean Windows image without any additional software installed.

Chat window in Version 7.0 too large
Hello,
I just got upgraded to Version 7.0 and the chat window is way to big and cannot be made any smaller. Even when I split the view and choose compact view (with the latter not really making any difference whatsoever) it is still too big for my needs. Plus when I split the view I have a 2nd Icon on the taskbar which bothers me.
Is there no way to just blend the contact list in and out of view by clicking on some arrow or mimimizing the width to about 1/3 of the "normal" smallest width? This is eating up too much space on my screen and looks ugly on top. The add window on top of the chat and the area with the contact info of my chat partner are also too big, at least the latter should be able to be reduced to 1 or two lines - I know with whom I am speaking.
It feels to me that whoever designed this had only touchsceen users or big monitors in mind. I have attached a screenshot from another program where I need less than a quarter of the space on my screen to give an Idea of what I am looking for.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

chat screenshot.jpg 15 KBIn split view, the chat window can be resized just hold your mouse in any corner of the window. The second item on your taskbar is your chat window (skype should be in systray so you really should only have one), you will have one for each conversation (if that is what you choose in settings, i assume you do not have a std Vista/w7 taskbar, in that case it will be only one for all of them).
Yes the font for Contact name is laughtable large (they will fix this is my guess). In split view, you just close Skype and the contact list will goto systray, along with skype itself, doubbleclick brings it back up.
You can also select compact view (not sure of the exact wording here) for the contact list under Viev in skype main window.
