Help! iChat for Mac OS X Lion! Yahoo Messenger!

So today i just got Mac OS X Lion on Mac App Store, I just install it, a FRESH install, and i tried to contact my friend with iChat. I heard that iChat now supported Yahoo Messenger! So i log on my account, work perfect with Text chatting, but when i tried to Video Call chatting, it's said: "Yahoo! is not supported video calls."
Plz help me!!!

Hi,
iChat and Audio.
This has always been set by the System > Preferences > Sound > Input as far as the volumes you Buddies hear you.  (Rather you turning this up has greater effect than them turning up their master volume)
This for a long time presumed there was only the Internal Mic or Line in on most Macs. (And that you weren't using Line-in despite showing both choices in the iChat Mic Drop down in iChat Preferences > Video Section)
Later this became an issue for Headsets particularly Blue Tooth ones.
These require that you set the System Preferences choice and volume first before then choosing them in iChat.
(If already set change both choices to something else.
Close iChat
Set the System Preferences choice to the Blue Tooth or Headset.
Now open iChat and set the choice there.)
In all cases since iChat 4 it has been possible to set the Volume level for a device (mic) in System Preferences and that it does not change you can use that selection in iChat but change the choice in system Preferences for other input/app combos.  (i.e. once the volume is set for the device iChat uses the choice/headline device in System Preferences can be changedready for other apps)
I have never tested the Yahoo Beta in any build or sub version number for Audio Chats before today.
I tested between my G4/1Ghz Dual Processor running Leopard and my MacBook Pro running Snow Leoaprd.
Yahoo is allowed thogh both Mac Firewalls and the Modem/router combined device is doing UPnP.
Despite checking my Mic Settings in System Preferences on the G4 the Audio level seemed somehow to get turned down.
It stayed in the "right" place after I checked again.
Strangely the G4's older Yahoo Version 3.0.0 can Initiate an Audio Chat but the option is greyed out on the current Yahoo Version 3.0.1 that the MacBook Pro is running.
I will do some more digging.
However it would seem in your case that the Mic choice and Volume level would be the palce to start as it effects both apps.

    Hello,
    It isn't the fw in Network you want o use or look at, that's for something completely different.
    My first suspect is the Power Adapter on the LaCie has gone.
    At the Apple Icon at top left>About this Mac, then click on More Info, then click on Hardware>Firewire, what is listed there?
    Reset the Firewire bus
    If your Firewire or USB isn't recognizing any device.  A solution which has worked for some whose hard drive became invisible in 10.4 was simply to follow these four steps to reset the Firewire/USB bus:
    1. Shut the machine down.
    2. UNPLUG the power lead to the computer and any firewire/USB drive or devices.
    3. leave it for 10 minutes.
    4. Connect back up and reboot.

  • How to download  iwork for mac os x lion for free?

    how to download  iwork for mac os x lion for free?

    The iWork apps are not freeware, and they no longer have Trial Versions as they did before the appearance of the Mac App Store. But, they are so inexpensive that they really don't need trial versions, and they are much more sophisticated than what we would expect to get at no cost. Once you purchase an iWork app on one Mac device, you can download additional copies for your other computers at no additional charge.

  • I have a iMac and a Mac Air. Do I have to pay twice for MAC OS X Lion?

    Do I have to pay twice for MAC OS X Lion for my iMac and MAC Air?

    No. You can install Lion on all systems you own from a single purchase. Either copy the installer before you run it on the first system and transfer it to the other system, or purchase and download it on one system, then log into the App Store on the second system go to the Purchased tab and you'll be able to download the installer again without charge.
    Regards.

  • Office for Mac issues with Lion

    Since installing Lion, I no longer have access to my Office for Mac Excel, Word, or PowerPoint...is there a simple fix for this?

    If you don't use Outlook then you could use one of the freebies, Open Office or Libre Office are often recommended, but they are not 100% compatible with MS Office, there will be minor formatting changes, and if you use VBA or Excel macros to help in your work you will have to do without them.
    Buy Office 2011 Home & Student for Mac (no Outlook) should be around $100, if you and your wife have individual computers you will need 2 copies.
