File transfer option dissapears in Group Chat

Hi All,
When adding a 3rd person to a chat in J4W the file transfer option dissapears.
Is this by design?
I have tested in 9.1.3 and 9.1.4.
Thanks

Hi Ben,
File transfer in group chates is not currently supported in Jabber for Windows. It is a backlog item but has not been comitted to a specific release at this time.
Thanks.

Removing file transfer options from client GUI.

How do you remove all of the file transfer options from the client GUI (the button, the right-click menu option, etc.)?

You can add <argument>allow_attachments=false</argument> in /var/opt/SUNwbsvr7/https:<hostname>/webapps/<hostname>im/en/im.jnlp file
to disable file transfer options from the Client GUI.
Or else if your using AM with IM then you can disable by setting the proper policy for DefaultUser through amconsole.

Skype for web add file transfer option

First of all, this web based skype is pretty good. There is only on thing i seen to be missing and that is an option for file transfer/sharing. Keep up the good work on this guys and do not dare to dissapoint us again like when you removed the modern windows skype app

Hi,
Thanks for your feedback. We will continue to add more features during the regular updates through the beta phase. Stay tuned.

File Transfer Option Greyed Out with Google Talk users..

I don't know if this is possible. Is it possible to get file transfer to work between Mac iChat 4.0 users and Google Talk Windows users? Or is this not possible.. if it is possible can someone point me in the direction of getting this enabled?
Thank you,
Kevin

I think I've ran into a licensing issue; On Oracle Standard Edition, only ASM is allowed.

File transfer option not available for remote devices under MAX

I am currently using LabVIEW 2012 and am using a application running on a Windows 7 PC to communicate (TCP/IP over Ethernet) with a RT PC. I have built an installer that installs a LabVIEW application as well as MAX on the Windows 7 PC. After installation i can open MAX and browse under Remote Systems to my RT device but am unable to ftp files to the the RT device as the File Transfer feature on the drop down menu is not shown. (This PC does not have the LabVIEW development environment installed.) Does anyone know if there are Additional Installers that are required to be included that will activate this feature or any reason why this feature in not available?
Regards,
Rob

Did you include the MAX FTP Client from the RT module in your installer? See this knowledgebase to see what I mean:
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/571113c2ce05998e862574e8006005a2?OpenDocument
Also, you can most likely just do ftp using windows explorer, if you prefer that method. Just open up windows explorer, and in the address bar type "ftp://x.x.x.x/" (where x.x.x.x is the IP address of the RT PC you are accessing.
Also, are you using the LabVIEW real-time module on your RT PC?

File transfer options

Getting ready to move data from my old Windows machine to a IMac G5. Should I use the firewire port on each machine or will the USB port work just as well.

Eugene, Welcome to the discussion area!
If Windows supports Firewire networking, use Firewire. Otherwise use Ethernet.

BBM Group Chat Question

BBM group chat question - from time to time, additional chats show up in our group that have no messages in them. When someone posts in one, the whole group sees it and the admins can delete it, but otherwise they tend to be localized to one or two members and we can't remove them. Is there a way for a non-admin to get rid of one of these chats? My understanding is that if I had started it that I'd be able to delete it but since I'm not the creator I don't have this option. Thanks.

Group chat is not supported yet.

Lync 2010 Mobile Client for IOS and Android - Is File Transfer Possible

I'm seeking confirmation that File Transfer is possible in a chat session with a Lync Mobile client running on IOS or Android. Can anyone provide further information as none of the client feature lists state it one way or the other?
Many thanks
Ivor

The Mobile Lync client can't share files, see the Client Comparison Table: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh691004.aspx

Ichat 4 + Google Talk + file transfer

Hi!
I'm trying to send files from iChat to iChat both with GoogleTalk
accounts without success.
The file transfer window displays that it is preparing but this goes
on forever. At the receiver the file transfer windows says
calculating.
Both are using 10.5.2 with an up to date iChat. Firewall is off.
ScreenSharing and Audio/Video is working fine.
I tested it with .Mac accounts and there file transfering is working
without any problems.
Thanks for any hint to solve this problem. It is really bothering me.
Cheers,
Stefan

I've tested this between my Google Talk account and my Jabber account. I used iChat on my Mac Mini to connect to iChat on my MacBook. Both are running 10.5.2. I found that for Jabber file transfers there are two phases. In phase 1 the Chat clients negotiate the file transfer parameters using the server as an intermediary. In phase 2 the receiver uses TCP to connect to the port from phase 1. If the connection is successful the file transfer begins. If it fails the sender can offer another IP address/port for transfer and the receiver can try again. This goes on until the sender has exhausted his list of available IP addresses and ports.
Problems with file transfer will usually happen at phase 1. At the end of phase 1 the Chat client that wishes to send the file sends a message that details the IP address and port for the receiver. The receiver should try to connect to this IP address and port and get the file. This will fail if there is either a NAT or a Firewall between the receiver and the sender. A NAT botches the transfer because iChat doesn't do anything to try to figure out what it's real address is. A firewall botches the transfer by discarding the inbound TCP SYN packets that initiate the communication between sender and receiver. This is made worse by the fact that as sender iChat doesn't use the same TCP port for transfer all the time.
In the end file transfer will work for two chat clients that can deliver packets between each other. Two people on the same LAN or on two seperate addresses that are neither NATed nor Firewalled. I've also got this going for people who have a VPN. iChat doesn't help you here. In fact it makes things worse by not choosing a constant port which means that arranging for transfer in your firewall policy is problematic. Ideally a chat client like Psi can be made to work. Psi allows the user to specify both the port and IP address specified in transfer.

IChat File Transfer/Video Chat won't work... :(

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to get ichat to allow file transfers/video chatting on my Mac, I have a feeling that the setup through the routers that we have are not allowing it to function as it is constantly giving me errors. My set up is a Cable Modem hooked into a Netgear WGR614 v6 and then an ethernet wire running from that router to a Linksys WRT54G v8. I have the WRT54G set up with the following settings:
IP: 192.168.1.136
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Gateway 192.168.1.1
Static DNS 1 and 2: Are my IP's DNS servers
Static DNS 3 is blank
Local IP address is .199 with a subnet of 255.255.255.128
I have DHCP enabled starting at .200 with 30 users
My computer is also set up statically at port .233.
The Netgear WGR614 v6 is set up with the following settings:
Get IP/DNS dynamically from ISP
DHCP Range from 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.51. Router is on a subnet of 255.255.255.0 the linksys is set up statically to the Netgear
SO, this brings me to my issue, I am trying to get ichat file transfer/video to work, I have followed the instructions for setting up portforwarding from portforward.com for ichat on both the netgear and the linksys. On the linksys, i set the IP address to forward to as my computers (.233)
On the netgear, i set the ip address to forward to as 192.168.1.136 (the static IP of the linksys).
Anyway, I am hoping someone can point out what I am doing wrong as I am still getting this error: An AIM error has occurred. Unable to talk directly to your buddy. I am also getting this error: An AIM service error occurred. The server message was: Serv:RequestTimeout.
My OS X firewall is off.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP IN ADVANCE!!

Hi,
I am not sure I have understood your Networking here.
You say the Netgear is getting an IP (Via DHCP) from the ISP.
You go onto say it is at 192.168.1.1
It issues IP addresses from 192.168.1.2 through 192.168.1.51 and the Linksys has an IP outside this range at 192.168.1.136
Your computer is at 192.168.1.233
As both devices are using the 192.168.1.xxx group and doing DHCP (even with restricted groups) how does the computer know which one to connect to ?
You should be able to change the group that each device is using for it's own network (I would suggest the Netgear)
You should also turn Off DHCP (to the LAN) in the Netgear so it's own network (subnet) only goes as far as the Linksys.
Similarly in the Linksys make sure DHCP is Off or change the Mac to use Manually (Static) with DHCP.
Both devices can do UPnP found in the Administration tab in the Linksys and the WAN page of the Netgear.
Turn Off/disable all Port Forwarding in both devices.
It may also pay to copy across the Linksys and Computer the DNS server IPs from the Netgear.

Photos in Skype Chat not File Transfer

Just upgraded to 6.21 and the promotion seemed to say you can drop images into a chat window rather than a file transfer. Is this correct and how do you do it? Thanks.

If a "friend" did that to me, that person would no longer be my friend.
To stop automatically caching of the full size photos:
Under "Tools"- "Options" - "IM&SMS" - "IM Settings" - Uncheck "Automatically accept incoming files".
To stop the smaller thumbnails from being automatically displayed in the Skype client:
Under "Tools"- "Options" - "IM&SMS" - "IM Appearance" - Uncheck "Show images and other media previews".

How to transfer (copy/move/paste) group layer to another page or file?

Hi
I wanted to transfer a set of group layer to another page in Fireworks CS5, how can I do that?
When I try to copy paste, it doesnt paste as a group instead paste as layers, then I have to again group it and name it Why Fireworks doesn't understand that I have copied a set of group layer?

You can share a layer to another page in Fireworks by selecting the layer in the Layers panel, then clicking on the small fly-out menu in the upper-righthand corner of the Layers panel and choosing "Share Layer to Pages". This opens up a two-column dialog, where can select the new page and add it to the right-hand column, "Include layer to page(s)".
As far as moving a layer into another file, you may need to use a Command like "L - Copy to Next Doc" from John Dunning's Frame and Layer Utilities command set:

Chat & File Transfer application

I'm currently working on an java client/server application (TCP/IP Socket programming) which allows the user to participate in a chat session and at the same time transfer file to another user that also logon to the same server.
My question is "how to develop this network application which allows chat and file transfer at the same time?? What is the technique involve??" I would appreciate if anyone can provide me some sample code or give me a pointer to some reference.
Thank you!! And Have a nice day!!

Two sockets and two threads handling them? (And possibly a third thread for the GUI?)
Doing two or more things at the same time is sooo basic stuff... http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/threads/index.html

Can't Join Group Chats, Can't Receive Files, and Skype Home Doesn't Work

Okay, so back when Windows 8 was newer I got my current laptop and when I saw Skype's original Windows 8 design, I said hell no to that and downloaded an earlier version of Skype instead. When Skype did that big overhaul and stopped support for all older versions, I was at least happy to see it was back to being on the desktop instead of that Windows 8 pseudo-tablet nonsense. But at the same time, I stopped getting notifications from Skype Home - it always says it's unavailable. Some time after that, in between Skype's updates, I started having trouble with Groups. Every time someone tried to add me to one, I couldn't see it, even if they said I was in it on their screen. Eventually I had to start making all Group Chats myself, because at least then it worked for me... up until the 7.7 update. Now no matter how I try to get into a Group now, it straight up doesn't work. And before I got locked out of Groups entirely, I started having issues with files, right around when the "inline photos" thing happened - they just don't work when sent to me, and I can't send them either. When people try to send them to me it's just a grey image and something about how it's not supported or it didn't go through. I've sort of just been patiently dealing with all of it until the newest update when Groups stopped working entirely and I was in the middle of trying to join an important conversation. I Googled that specific issue and found a ton of unresolved threads about it dating back to at least 2013, I believe. I tried every suggestion I could find - I restarted, uninstalled Skype, reinstalled Skype, restarted after uninstalling and then reinstalling... the list goes on. Every time I got it back, it was the same. Now I'm on Windows 8.1, and I don't know if that's related, but my boyfriend - who uses a Mac - is having none of these problems whatsoever, and he also has the latest version of Skype. With older versions of Skype not available, I ended up trying Skype Web, and it's letting me see all the Groups, which is the most important thing but I'd really prefer to go back to the desktop version. All three of my issues might be unrelated, but they've all progressed as Skype has updated so I figured I'd try to get help for all of them. I'm at my wit's end, here. I use Skype for a pretty large portion of my online communication, and being unable to use Groups or get files is really crippling the experience.

Hi,
I have the same problem.
Since I'm using my new Laptop with Skype 7.0, I can't join to a group chat.
It's a public chat and joining is enabled.
With my former laptop and former Skype-Version, I never had this problem.
I could click on a link in the browser and joined to the group.
I have to chose a program.
Unfortunately Skype.exe seems not to be the right decision.
I'm asked to get a Skype-app, which I never needed with the old version.
Which kind of app do I need and how can I get the app or what else can I do?

P2p chat file transfer

Hi all,
I have started to make a chat and file transfer appl. between two computer using internet. Can you help some?
I looked into TCP and UDP. When i want to connect to other pc, How do i use ip no to find that computer.
Both of computers use non static ip while connecting. How do i detect the other computer. For example hamachi creates its own ip no.
Can you advice some way?
thanks.

IMO you must have signaling server, some like STUN server (in exemple. xmpp (ex jabber) network when you want send file , voice or audio)
I think, You shuld read RFC for XMPP or SIP protocols - maybe this lectures can help you know idea P2P
cheers
