Everyone appears as Offline, even if they are not...

Recently, iChat has stopped showing which contacts are online. It just shows everyone as offline. Even after I receive a message from a contact, they still appear on the list as offline. In essence, people can start a conversation with me, but I can't start one with them.
Any help?

Hi,
The Connection Doctor (Video Menu) now has an Item about Network Status.
What does this report about your "Router" ?
Press the ? mark for more Info.
In iChat Help there is an Item About "What if your router is causing Problems"
In this Apple clearly state that iChat works best with a Full Cone NAT router
See item 3 here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Networkaddresstranslation
Mine reports "Port Restricted:" but I can successfully chat with the Apple test accounts and accept incoming calls. (my tried and tested test Buddy has been Off Line when I have been free to test further)
This info about NAT issues pre-dates iChat 3
http://www.ralphjohns.co.uk/page15.html#CertainBuddy (It has a Pink text area about iChat 3) where UPnP was found to be more successful (it 'seems' to have less issues with NAT)

    My Macbook is not playing sound unless i have headphones in. The light in the headphone port stays on even when they are not plugged in. How can i fix this?

    You might need to clean the headphone port (I was in the same situation and this worked for me).  Dirt, dust, and debris accumulate in the port and eventually the computer registers the debris as headphones being plugged in.  After cleaning the issue was resolved.

  • Audio - toggle on/off multiple sounds even when they are not currently playing

    I am wondering if there is a way to stop toggle all sounds even if they are not playing.
    What I mean by that is I have several sound files that play one at a time when a slide comes in. I can toggle on/of the current sound but what if I want to toggle all sounds on/off in the compostion even if they are not playing so that when I go to next slide it will be on or off depending what was chosen on the previous slide?
    One of the problem would be that I do not want all sounds to be turned back on at the same time but only the current one but I still want to be able to turn off all the sounds if the user decides he does not want to hear sound while at the same time I want the sounds to load automatically on each slide if he has decided to have sound.
    Hope this makes sense.

    didn't have the time to test this code yet.
    but it should work.
    Html5 audio can not be accessed by class, it can only be accessed by id.
    so i made this code
    $( "audio" ).each(function() {
    var a = $(this).attr("id");
    var audioPlayer = document.getElementById(a)
        audioPlayer.pause();
        audioPlayer.currentTime = 0;
    this will find the id of the audios and pause them and reset the time to 0
    ( not really a way to officially stop audio )
    or you van just mute it with this code
    $( "audio" ).each(function() {
    var a = $(this).attr("id");
    var audioPlayer = document.getElementById(a)
        audioPlayer.muted = true;

    I have just set up icloud and all my contacts are duplicated from Address Book! My new iPhone is also showing duplicate contacts even though they are not duplicated in my address book on my computer. Please can you help?

    Also, what are the source of your contacts? are they created on the phone, or you synced from yahoo/hotmail etc.
    If thats the case, the circular arrow wont be visible but instead show "groups"
    Contacts from different accounts are not synced to iCloud.

  • I cannot rearrange layers in Muse even though they are not locked.

    I have seen tutorial videos where people can rearrange the stacking order of the layers in the layers panel. Yet when I try they just won't move. They are not locked, and I have tried the master page and a normal page. Has anyone got any ideas of why others seem to be able to but I cannot.

    Ian,

  • Can't get transferred songs to appear on player even though they are in the right folder on new computer

    I have moved music from old computer to new one through externaI drive. They are in the proper folder for Itunes to find them (I did authorize the new computer) but they do not appear in the list when I call up nItunes. I did try to import them through the add fule to library, but it only seems to work one siong at a time. I want to add rhem all at one time.

    Was the ENTIRE iTunes folder copied, just the iTunes Media, or just the media files themselves?
    If properly moved, there should be no issue.
    Assuming the ENTIRE iTunes folder was moved:
    Close iTunes.
    Hold SHIFT and launch iTunes.  Continue holding SHIFT until the locate or create a new library option is presented.
    Point iTunes to the correct location for the iTunesLibrary.itl file, this will be the folder that was copied from the old computer.
    Everything in iTunes on the new coputer should be exactly as it was on the old computer.

  • Are my devices supposed to wi-fi synce even if they are not plugged into a power source?

    My three devices are checked to wi-fi sync for windows 7 iTunes, iPad 2, iPhone 4s and iPod touch 4th G.  When I launch iTunes all three devices appear under DEVICES after a few seconds. Now if I click on my iPad's name or my iPhone's name under DEVICES it'll go to the section where I'm ready to sync that device well if I click Sync at the bottom right it reads at the very top where the Apple logo is Syncing "my iPad name" Looking For iPad...for a few seconds then a error message in the middle of the screen that reads " The iPad "My iPad name" could not be synced because the iPad could not be found on the network."  However if the devices are plugged into a power source the sync process begins automatically as soon as iTunes has been launched and loaded without me doing anything cause I've checked the box Open iTunes when this iPad is connected. This way seems to be working flawlessly.  Is it not supposed to sync if its not plugged in or it's just being a crappy Windows 7 iTunes?  I know for a fact that I've wi-fi synced without them plugged in. Won't matter if I initiate the sync from the device, same thing happens except then it won't show the error message in the middle of the screen reads " The iPad "My iPad name" could not be synced because the iPad could not be found on the network." the device under DEVICES just vanishes and won't reappear unless I close iTunes and re start it. 
    Tommy V.

    You appear to be "forcing" this Sync to happen - regardless of any possible consequences.
    In other words, you are deliberately testing the system. Well, that's up to you, but if you use Wi-Fi to Sync even though you're not connected to power, you risk losing data (or it becoming corrupted) if when the battery runs down.
    If the battery runs down flat (and the iPhone/iPad stop working) during a Sync, you can be sure that will cause you so many issues with lost or corrupted data, that you'll wish you hadn't forced anything.
    It's up to you, but why would you want to do that... ?

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

  • Office 365 ProPlus App-V 5.0 Package installs Lync, Outlook, Infopath and Onenote even though they are not selected for publishing

    I have created an App-V 5.0 Package for Office 365 ProPlus using the documentation provided here:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219422.aspx
    I am able to load the App-V Package into my SCCM 2012 SP1 environment and deploy the package to a test machine
    Within SCCM, I have configured the deployment type to only select a couple of applications.  Notice that Lync, Outlook, Infopath and Onenote are not selected.
    http://i.imgur.com/1eMxUlY.jpg
    For my deployment type, I only selected Word, Excel and Powerpoint.  Looking at my test machine, those 3 applications now show up in my start screen.
    http://i.imgur.com/amZmxAT.jpg
    I don't see any of the other Office applications be default on my start screen, so I would think all looks good.  If I type another Office application, lets say access at the start screen I get, "No apps match your search."
    http://i.imgur.com/fxbWEvb.jpg
    But if I type Lync, Outlook, Infopath or Onenote, it shows me that those applications are available, and I can launch them as an App-V application just as I could Excel, Word or Powerpoint, the applications that I wanted to have available.
    This is not what I was expecting when I went through the trouble to create an App-V package.  It looks like almost all of the apps become available on my client machine, all App-V is doing is making the application button in the start screen a little
    harder to find.
    What is interesting is that for the applications I did want published, I can search for them by just entering a few letters of the application name, and they show up with the 2013 version label, see below for an example search for Word.
    http://i.imgur.com/0LeS05z.jpg
    For the applications that I did not publish but still show up on my client, I have to type in the full name of the application for the launch button to come up.  For example, I can't type lyn and expect to see Lync, but if i type lync I will get an
    option to launch the application.  The same goes for Outlook, Infopath and Onenote, and when you do type in the full namke of the app, it doesn't show the version number like Word does as Word 2013, it just shows Lync, or Outlook, or Infopath, or
    Onenote.
    http://i.imgur.com/QV1afuc.jpg
    vs
    http://i.imgur.com/PxgSmUc.jpg
    Can anyone from Microsoft confirm that this is expected behavior.  If this is to be expected this is pretty disappointing, because a main point of the App-V package is it is the only way to limit which applications are deployed via Office 365 ProPlus
    but from what I can tell, it really isn't limiting anything beyond the start screen for most cases.

    So it looks like the config xml files are the best option
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/office_resource_kit/archive/2013/12/02/announcing-app-v-5-0-sp2-support-for-office-2013-volume-licensing-editions.aspx
    You can now use the Deployment Configuration file to configure the Office installation. One question I often get is, “How do I disable msaccess.exe or infopath.exe from an Office install if I am not using the MSI package?” This can be done by modifying the
    Deployment Configuration file in App-V with entries like the following:
    <Application Id="[(AppVPackageRoot}]\office15\MSACCESS.EXE" Enabled="false">
      <VisualElements>
        <Name>Access 2013</Name>
        <Icon />
        <Description />
      </VisualElements>
    </Application>
    That will prevent App-V from publishing msaccess.exe on the system and/or you can remove any undesired application shortcuts from publishing on the targeted computer using the shortcuts properties by deleting or commenting them out. Once you’ve configured your
    Deployment and User Configuration files, you’ll have everything you need to import the packages into your App-V environment to start testing.

  • HFM Security Issue - User can submit a journal by by-passing the approval step even though they are not an admin.

    Hi All,
    I was wondering if anyone could help me with a HFM security issue on HFM 11.1.2.3 we are facing please?
    The problem is that a user can by-pass the journal approval stage and post directly after submitting if Custom4 access control=All is selected.
    If any of the other access controls (None, Read, Promote) for custom 4 are selected, the first two steps of the process are possible -
    input and approval of the journal are possible but final posting of the journal is not and returns an error that says:
    "User does not have the access right to perform this journal task"
    The options I have thought for a workaround are as follows:
    1.       1. Set up a 3rd user called data poster and remove submit journal role from user 1 (data inputter)
    2.       2. Put in place process control and use the various review levels (could be quite time consuming given there is no time left for development)
    Have anyone experienced this before and come up with a quick way of resolving this please? It would be very much appreciated.
    We have two types of users who are associated with groups in HFM and have the appropriate roles assigned to them to complete their tasks,
    they are:
    1. A data Inputter (who inputs base data and journals, who has access to create and submit journals)
    2.   2. A data reviewer (who approves journals)
    The process is as follows:
    1.       1. Logon as Data inputter to submit the journals
    2.       2. Logon as Data reviewer to approve the journals
    3.       3. Logon as Data inputter to post the Journals
    We are using the custom 4 member to identify different adjustment types. At the moment we are able to set it up in such a way whereby Steps 1 and 2 can be completed
    but once it comes back to step 3, we get an error as follows:
    "User does not have the access right to perform this journal task"
    (This error comes about when the access control on custom 4 is set to None, Read, Promote)
    Custom 4 Access Rights looks as follows:

    When Custom 4=C4_ADJ01 all 3 steps can be completed but it by-passes step 2 (journal approval).

  • Purchased apps won't appear in iTunes, even though they are in my account

    Hi.
    I switched to Windows 7 (clean install), installed iTunes and my purchased iTunes apps won't show up, neither in the library nor in the left hand column where you can sync with the ipod (touch). And yet the programs do appear on the list of purchased programs when I look into that on my account.
    One thing is peculiar: iTunes states that this is my 3rd of 5 allowed PC's (and it used to say my 2nd of 5 while running the same PC with Vista).
    Is there any way to re-get these programs (and updates!) back active?
    Thanks in advance,
    Hans Timmermans

    Did you back up those apps before you did the clean install of Windows 7 and then copy them back into iTunes? If not, then they won't be there on the system so they won't show up. You need to either restore those apps from your backup or go through the purchase process again for each app; if you purchased them once, you won't be charged a second time even though it will look like it will until you actually download.
    iTunes states that this is my 3rd of 5 allowed PC's (and it used to say my 2nd of 5 while running the same PC with Vista).
    This is often the case when you reinstall the OS without deauthorizing the computer from the iTunes Store first. Take a look at this Apple support article; it may help:

    The server session and cache will not hold onto object using NoIdentityMap.
    In general we don't recommend using NoIdentityMap because of loss of object identity, and prefer using an isolated cache to disable caching, but neither should produce a memory leak. You should also be able to use a weak or even soft cache without memory issues.
    It seems that something else in your application may be holding onto these objects. I would recommend using a memory profiler such as JProfiler to determine the root cause.
