Gmail chat, google voice when they hear you, you don't hear them.

a) gmail chat, google voice
In gmail chat, google voice what might you ask your friend to try by way of getting thier gmail chat, google voice to work if you can be heard by them clearly on their iMac desktop Apple computer but you don't hear them on your iMac desktop Apple computer?... given that everything works okay like you can heari the ringing tone to connect, volume is set okay, speakers are working okay for other things but when connected you don't hear them when they hear you.
b) What settings?
Or what gmail chat, google voice settings and Apple settings might be double checked at both ends?...

HI,
In iChat > Preferences > Video section > Bandwidth Limit set the speed at both end as 500kbps.
This can help if one end has a much faster internet connection than the other.
It can also help where ISPs try to work against Peer-to-Peer file sharing.
Video and Audio Only chats are Peer-to-Peer and suffer when ISP slow down the connection to combat this.
It is more common in Cable connections than DSL ones due to low contention rates.

  • Safari 5.1.4 broke Gmail AND Google Voice

    Well, this seriously *****. I just updated to Safari 5.1.4 and now Gmail and Google Voice don't function properly. The buttons run away from my mouse and almost nothing is clickable. I

    I am a little confused by the issue, everyone here is stating that if Safari is running in 32-bit mode it does show the rendering problems in Gmail. However, when I check information about Safari in the application folder and can see that I have the option to operate Safari in 32-bit mode rather than 64-bit mode. I know for fact that in SL Safari runs in 64-bit mode by default if your system supports it. This makes me wonder if the people in this forum are having problems with Safari 5.1.4 in their Core Duo or 32-bit EFI only Macs which will not use a 64-bit version of Safari. Can anyone explain further? I am really trying to decide whether I will pull the trigger and update.
    Thanks for any explanation on this...

  • I have just bought iphone 4 and when I make calls i don't hear anything from the headset excep when i plug in the headphones or turn on speaker ?

    I have just bought iphone 4 and when I make calls i don't hear anything from the headset excep when i plug in the headphones or turn on speaker ?

    I have the same problem. It only started a few days ago. When I make or receive calls I have to use speaker otherwise I can't hear a thing. I'm also pretty sure that when I try to make calls without the speaker turned on, it doesn't actually dial, but the display says it has.
    I've tried restoring from a backup with no luck. I'm reluctant to restore as a new phone as it's such a pain.

  • When I add Contacts I don't see them on iCloud?

    I add a contact on my phone and they don't appear on iCloud yet and I can't seem them you when they call or text their name appears.  

    If you add a new contact, be sure it's under the iCloud category and not "On my iphone".  If it's "on my iphone", then they don't sync to iCloud.  Same goes for mail on a mac.

  • HT2417 my iphone 4s voice messages repeatedly disappear and reappear at random. When they do reappear, I cannot listen to them. Sometimes, they eventually come through but usually too late to respond

    I have an iphone 4s with Sprint. Ever since I switched from my iphone 3G with ATT, I have had incredible frustration with the voicemail system. Periodically, my voicemails on the new phone disappear; all messages old and new. This occurs out of the blue. Similarly they at times reappear, but the new messages have no content and all show up as 0.00minutes. Randomly, some messages retrieve their content and I can listen to them, often too late to respond to the caller. This is very annoying and almost questions why the voicemail exists at all. I have taken the phone to Sprint multiple times and performed countless resets with no recourse, hence they suggested contacting Apple. Has anyone else experienced this or know of a viable solution? iOS is up to date, phone only used in USA
    Thanks

  • Why do some of my playlists gray out even though the music in the list has been downloaded to my iPad ?  When they are grey I can't access them.

    I have a second gen iPad using the cloud and iTunes Match.  On several occasions ( I was not wifi connected ) several of my playlist greyed out not giving me access to them even though the music in these particular playlists have been downloaded to my iPad.  Any ideas why this happens

    No...should I? I don't have a cluttered desktop at all. Though I guess I do have some folders with a lot (thousands) of PDF's in them.  Far less than I did before, though.  I moved a bunch of stuff to a portable hard drive last week.

  • Ichat 2 Aim(windows) they see me i don't see them!

    Here is the skinny. My girlfirend goes to university about an hour from me. She has a Windows based computer using Aim. I have a new iMac Core duo with buit in iSight. We chat no problem, send files and everything. When I try to video conference with her the following happens. She can see me, hear me and see her self. I only see my self most of the time. Twice I have gotten a still shot of her but it is kinda choppy and frozen. I have been trying to figure this out for awhile now with no luck. I have disabled all the firewalls on my end and hers on her service pack 1 xp. I'm hoping someone will have some fresh idea's for me:) Thanks alot
    Cheers

    Hi Ryan,
    To quote that link
    If you want the short version: open ports 5060, 5353, 5678, 16384-16403 for UDP and 5190, 5297, 5298 for both UPD and TCP.
    This has an error that is not that crucial to the functioning of iChat. Port 5297 can be UDP only as it does not need TCP.
    Alternatively you can use the UPnP setting in the Admistration tab as this is an On or Off setting and disable the Pot Forwarding options.
    Can you log on to the AIM server ?

  • Why cant people hear me when they call?

    ive been having this issue lately...i can hear them perfectly but they cant seem to hear me or ill sound really far away

        Lingling28, I want your friends to be able to hear your lovely voice when they talk to you! Is this happening on all your calls or calls in a certain area? Dial *228 option 2 and reboot your phone. While on a call, verify the call audio is all the way turned up by using the side volume keys. Also, if you have a case, make sure it is not covering the microphone. Try taking it off completely.
    Let me know if this issue continues.

  • Google Voice vs Skype Need to Make Decsion ASAP

    I need to make a decsion on if I should use google voice for my new business or skype. The lack of ability to talk directly with a human about my questions is  also frustrating. i need to order business cards and finish print materials asap so someone please answer quickly. Why should I choose skype over Google Voice when one is free and the other isnt.

    Solo una cosa. GV è un numero MOBILE tipo mentre Skype-in è un numero di tipo fisso. Alcuni paesi non consentono l'ID chiamante per il tuo numero Skype-in - si richiede di portarlo a un numero di cellulare. Questo problema non è nel GV - ed è oggetto di molte discussioni denuncia su Skype-in Google "ID chiamante Skype-in" e troverete i thread.
