High Resolution Mode no longer works with new vers...

For years I used Skype in high res mode (1280X720) with auto answer to look at the veiw from may vacation house window. This worked great. The picture quality was terrific and the connection was always stable. However, after I upgraded the Skype version on my home windows 8 PC in May, I could only connect at 640X480. I thought the issue was that the mac mini in my vacation house ran a very old version of Skype (on the tiger OS), so I put in a new 2.5GHz core duo processor and upgraded to snow leopard and the latest version of Skype. But this did not help. The only way I could get Hi-Res back was to install old versions of Skype on all my computers. It seems dumb that I have to run old versions of the software, I would really like to run current the versions. Couldn't you add a feature that allows users to overide the system choices and pick the resolution?

  • WiFi no longer working with new Time Capsule-can you help please?

    Hi all,
    Just received my new Time Capsule (TC). It was a little problematic setting up, but probably due to my now choosing to increase my security from WEP to WPA as the TC set-up assistant suggests. Since then, I have had numerous problems getting my other computers and now my iPhone to connect with WiFi.
    The problem is that despite entering all the new settings and WPA passwords for my connection with the TC, the iPhone will either momentarily recognize and go to wifi or simply stay on Edge.
    On the former, with wifi active, as soon as I go to iTunes, Safari or check email, it reverts to Edge. On the latter, despite resetting, entering password, or tapping Settings and selecting my wifi connection, it will NOT connect and stays on Edge.
    (Now, I'm on Edge! I'm bummed that with new hardware I have new problems that didn't exist before!)
    Can someone who had this same problem tell me how they resolved it.
    Here's the one clue I have, but would rather not resort to: When I first set up the TC, I had it on WEP with a WDS Network, and everything was working great and FAST! Now that I have increased the security—I will be backing up 3 computers to the TC—my iPhone and other computers seem to have intermittent or no wifi connection as a result.)

    Irving Gonzales,
    If your computers are 802.11N capable, you might want to try an advanced setup that might help your Time Machine speeds some. I have not personally tested it, so it is just a personal theory at this point.
    First, in a mixed environment the 802.11N clients all get slowed down.
    First, configure the TC for 802.11N only.
    Second, connect the Airport Express via ethernet to the Time Capsule
    Third, configure the Airport Express for bridged mode (doesn't give out IP addresses), and for its own wireless network with a different name than the Time Capsule.
    Have any 802.11b/g clients like the iPhone join the Airport Express' network.
    Thank you,
    Nathan C.

  • Apple 23" HD Cinema Display no longer working with new Macbook Pro

    I bought a 23" used HD Cinema display the other day along with the ADC-DVI and DVI-Mini Display adapters. I had it hooked up and it was working perfectly for 3 days. Today my wife tried to connect her Macbook accidentally via the USB that is part of the ADC-DVI adapter which didn't work (why is that USB there anyway?). Then when she went to connect the external display back to my Macbook Pro it did not wake up after being connected. I have tried resetting the PRAM on the MBP and have disconnected and re-connected all connections but nothing will get the display working with the MBP anymore. When I connect and disconnect the mini-display plug into the MBP the MBP flashes the blue screen as it appears to be reacting, but that's it. I can't detect any display when I go into the display system preferences. Does anyone know how I can get the Apple Cinema display working again? Thanks for any help.

    Upon reflection, I think my issue is different. Probably should not have posted it here. As it turns out sometimes my display works, sometimes it does not. I think the power adapter has gone bad. A common occurrence here in Mexico where the power can fluctuate quite a bit. - Ryan
    There are couple of long threads in the display section about problems with the power supplies on the 23" HD DVI. See this one for instance: https://discussions.apple.com/message/17981683#17981683
    Mine one day just wouldn't turn on -- connected to an old G4 MDD and the Mini -- a bit of fiddling it would occasionally start up, sometimes not. Similar to what you described, the Macs would see it in System Profiler, but it just wouldn't turn on.
    Based on that thread, I figured the problem was mostly likely the power supply. A local authorized repair place didn't have a spare for me to try, but the tech sniffed it and mentioned it the burnt electronics smell. LOL, I sniffed it and sniffed the power supply for my 20" DVI Cinema display -- indeed a weird smell.
    Based on that thread, I decided to bite the bullet and buy a beefier 150" power supply for the 30" Cinema display, which Apple says in compatible with the 23". See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2803
    I hooked it up, crossed my fingers, and it fired up right away. It's been working fine for about 3 months now. Cheaper than buying a new monitor.

  • Norton no longer works with new version of Firefox. I want to go back

    Just downloaded the new Firefox version. Now Norton, which provides info re safety of websites no longer works. I'd just as soon go back to the older version but don't know how.

    Actually Norton has been doing a great job of support new Firefox releases on day of or shortly after a new Firefox release ever since Firefox 5.0.
    Norton does support 9.'''0'''.1

  • E3000 keyword blocking no longer working with new 1.0.06 firmware under access restrictions

    I set up some policies that were working fine under 1.0.04 that are no longer working under 1.0.06 b.  I have tried modifying with all sorts of options and nothing is working.  Has anyone else found a combination that works?  Or can anyone confirm that blocking by keywords are or are not working for them under the latest firmware?  This is causing problems for our west michigan web design company.

    How was the FW updated? Automatic or manual? 
    To safely update FW, I recommend doing the following: Download the FW file from the support site first.
    1. Save router config to file first using IE or FF with all security add-ons disabled.
    2. Factory reset the router with all other devices disconnected or turned OFF accept for 1 wired PC.
    3. Reload or Update the FW using IE or FF. Just download the FW file to your local wired LAN PC.
    4. Factory reset the router and then set up from scratch first and test with out loading the saved config from file. Check to see if any problems are fixed before loading the saved config from file. Sometimes you need to set up from scratch with out loading the saved config file. Just safer that way.
    Users have seen issues with upgrading to the most current version, you may need to revert back to v4

  • Aperture no longer works with new osx Yosemite update

    I installed new OSX Yosemite update and now it says that my Aperture App. will not work with this version. What can be done other than updating Aperture?

    Hi,
    It's a five step process
    Call Apple Support for Software > Aperture
    Answer questions at recorded message (have Aperture serial number ready – it is on a sticker on the back of the 'Installing Your Software' booklet) and you will be transferred to a real person.
    Inform them of the issue and they will tell you that this is a known issue with certain users and they will request a 'Redemption Code' for the App Store for a standalone download of Aperture. The issue will be rectified in the next Yosemite release.
    Wait for email from Support (they have to contact Support in California for redemption code, so depending on your time zone, there may be some delay).
    Visit App Store, enter redemption code, and you are good to go.
    Hope this helps.

  • E72 - Photo editing no longer working with new FW ...

    The option in image gallery to edit photos no longer works. It only brings up a partial blank window with no editing options as in the previous fw versions (where editing worked fine). Any ideas?

    Problem solved. I formatted my memory card (which I now use only for music and photos) and that solved the problem. Editing back and working as it should. Phew!

  • Panasonic network cameras no longer work with new versions of Firefox.

    I have been viewing my Panasonic Network camera, model BB-HCM381A using Firefox for several years.
    Starting with Firefox version 15.0.1 and again with 16.0.1, 16.0.2 and 17.0.1 the browser begins to display the streaming video, but then drops the signal after maybe 20 seconds. Refreshing the page brings back the image for another 20 seconds, and then drops it again.
    All previous versions of Firefox before version 15.0.1 worked great. Now I have to use Internet Explorer exclusively. It would be great if you could fix the problem.
    Example of viewing the streaming video can be found at www.bandon.tv, which may require installing a plug-in from Panasonic.

    I see the same happen, but it takes longer. It is possible that the server gets too many visitors and drops some of them. A right click and "This Frame > Reload This Frame" also works. I also notice that frames get blocked (it skips seconds), so you may need a faster server.

  • HP printer no longer works with new OS

    Greetings,
    I have an older iMac with a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo and 4GB 667 MhZ DDR2 SDRAM.
    I recently upgraded my OS from OS 10.5.8 to OS 10.6.8, and can no longer print on my HP Deskjet 5650.  Any suggestions would be appreciated!  Thanks,
    Larry

    hp only state support for 10.5.X so if you install the older driver and it does not work then it's because hp no longer support newer versions of OS X
    HP Deskjet 5650 Color Inkjet Printer Drivere - Hewlett Packard
    in which case you have 2 options downgrade to 10.5.X or get a new printer

  • WHY doesn't TEXT to SPEECH no longer work with New "Pages" documents?

    (Using OS X 10.9 Maverics …)
    PLEASE reinstate the TEXT to SPEECH as it was in all earlier versions.  This is a highly used benefit to, I'm sure many happy users - UNTIL the new "DOWNGRADE" of Pages - a great disappointment.
    If you have a "FIX" that works across all applications …  as before "Pages 9," please share it with the forum.
    Thanks,

    If you have a comment you wish to direct at Apple regarding Text to Speech, then that is an OS X feedback issue. If you have an issue with Pages for Mac, it is a different feedback page.
    No one on this community forum is going to reinstate Text to Speech as we are strictly volunteers and not Apple badged employees. Apple won't see your post. Their engineers are busy elsewhere.
    Use the formal feedback process above, and do not be surprised if you never hear from Apple.

  • Slingbox Solo no longer working with new Airport Express router

    Help! I'm at the end of my tether trying to get my Slingbox to communicate with the new Airport Express I've just bought. Here's the deal...Obviously, as AEXP only has one Ethernet Port (under advisement) I had to go and buy a 5 port Ethernet switch. Cable modem connects to 1 port of the switch. AEXP connects to another port. Slingbox connects to 3rd port. Network light on Slingbox flashes incessantly and Slingplayer software tells me to makes sure the "Network Router the Slingbox is connected to has the correct Port Forwarding settings."
    I have tried (via google) but cannot make sense of this. There should be no firewall obstacles as i am using MAC filtering and have added the MAC address of the slingbox to the AEXP settings. I know that Slingbox does work as it worked fine before with my Belkin router. Please can anyone help? I have called slingbox for ages and they are unable to help. Here's hoping someone here has brains and the patience i don't have! Kind Regards.

    identitytheft, Welcome to the discussion area!
    Sorry but you need to replace the Ethernet switch with a router which has more than one Ethernet port.
    Since the AirPort Express (AX) only has a single Ethernet port it can not properly share an IP address to Ethernet clients.

  • M3u's no longer work with new itunes

    So I built a new rig with windows 7, I previously had xp.  And what I had always done for YEARS was to create my playlists in winamp and save them as m3u's.  Then all I had to do was open up itunes, go to import playlist and select it and boom all my songs would pop right up and I could add and sync the playlists on my ipod.
    However that does not work anymore for me.  I create the playlist the same way as always, and then open up itunes and go to add it and the playlists add to the column on the left, but they are completely blank, no songs come up on the main right side to listen to or play and you can't add them to any ipods.  These same playlists all work fine in winamp.  So what's the deal here?

    the advice was correct, and you should do the same as already posted.
    also, the fact the OP marked the thread as "solved" means that the advice was correct.
    however i would suggest you start your own thread, this time in the correct forum.
