How do i video chat on the new imessage

everytime i sent a video chat request it just says waiting for _____ to answer, and

Hi,
In the new Messages App you can have an iMessages account and older "iChat" type accounts
iMessages accounst are created with registering an Apple ID which can also be used on iPhone and iPads or iPod touches and iMessages are then synced across all devices.
It is an Apple Only service and is text only
In the Main Message Window/interface once you have starts an iMessage chat you can use the Video icon which will start up FaceTime to Video Chat
"iChat" Type accounts
Messages in built on top of what was iChat and you can still use the Names and IDs that you used in iChat.
You can see lowere left in the pic I have 10 such accounts logged in (The pic also indicates I keep the Buddy Lists separate - if you use the combined list the view is different).
You can then work two ways
Starting a chat like the iMessages way but to an AIM Buddy (or Jabber) and than also use the Video icon and this will start an A/V chat in Messages.
Example pic of a chat between two of those Logins
Here the Video icon will start an "iChat" Style chat (if it were an outside Buddy - obviously I can't video to myself on the same computer)
The alternative is to have the Buddy lists On show and work from a Buddy list and it's icons
This is the same Account as the above pic but in the Buddy list.
You can start from the Green icons or highlight a Buddy and use the bottom icons (or the Buddies Menu) or right click a Buddy.
To Unlink Combined Buddy list go to Messages Menu > Preferences > General Section and untick the line about Gathering all Accounts into one list (It's actually all Non iMessages accounts as the iMessages account does not have a Buddy list)

Does video chat on the new Messager on Mac allow screen share or multiple people?

does video chat on the new Messager on Mac allow screen share or multiple people?
i noticed they said that facetime will basically be taking over video calls on the mac and that Messager will take over ichat, but i'm worried they're going to drop all the nice features they had on ichat, like being able to share screens while video chatting with someone. or being able to chat with 2 people at once on a video call.
has anyone downloaded the beta of this yet and tried it out? i'm very curious

Hi,
You can start a Video chat with one Buddy and then chose Screen Share and providing you and the Buddy are using UPnP to open ports it will instantly convert to a Screen Share.
A Screen Share is only 1-1 and is technically an Audio Chat +
The Plus bit is an VNC connection alongside the Audio Chat.
This VNC connection uses a random port - hence the need to use UPnP to open the ports in the router (Or Port Mapping Protocol) in Apple Base Station.
There used to be Add-ons that allowed the Desktop as Video Feed which would have been a sort of Screen Share but none of these have been updated for Lion.
An Example is iUSBCam (ShowMacster was another - My link no longer works)
CamCamX maybe a possibility if it works in Lion (It does say it neess iUSBCam for iChat)

My video chat on the new mac book pro is not working

Hi I just recieved my mac book pro today and my video chat for aim is not working? Can anyone help me?

HI,
Which OS is this Mac running ?
If running Mountain Lion I take it you have added the AIM name to the Messages > Preferences > Accounts ?
Have you got the Buddy list on view ?
Is it the combined one called "Buddies" or a separate one for AIM ? (You can unlink them in the General section of the Preferences).
Are you using the Video icon top right of the Messages main window or the green iCons in a Buddy List ?

How can you video chat on the iPad using Facebook?

When I click on the icon it tells me that the person can't be called at this time. The other person tries calling me with no answer from my end.

Try down loading Skype (it's free) and have your friend do the same, you can now Skype each other for a video chat or use FaceTime which is an Apple product and is already on your Apple divice.

You need to have the facetime app installed on your iMac and you need to be using an iPad 2.

How can I video chat with someone who uses web based yahoo?

Not long ago I purchased my first Mac (New MacBook Pro 2.53GHZ); last Summer I also purchased a MacBook Pro for my daughter. Everything works great (like driving a formula one Porsche after grappling with a battered pick-up truck (meaning Windows) for many decades; cannot imagine ever going back. But, there is one issue that I have not been able to solve and for which I would greatly appreciate any suggestions or advice. I am familiar with ichat and with AIM (my daughter uses it all the time). However, the vast majority of people with whom I communicate via IM live in parts of the world where very few people have even a computer at home much less residential internet access. As a result, near all of the folks I would be chatting with have to use public computers (internet cafes, libraries, etc) and obviously they cannot install AIM or anything else on those public computers. About 90% of them use the web based yahoo messenger which can be accessed from any computer with an internet connection (most of the rest use MSN). My question is this: I know how to do video chat in ichat but ichat does not support yahoo. How can I do video chat with someone who is using web based yahoo on a public computer that has a USB web cam? I was able to do this on my old PC which had a plug in web cam but do not know how it might work on a Mac. Should I install yahoo messenger on my MacBook Pro and will that work for me?. I know about some other Mac compatible chat clients such as Admiun but as far as I can tell none of them support video chat or in some cases yahoo. Perhaps I am overlooking something. I would be very grateful for any suggestions or advice in this matter. Thanks to anyone who reads this post and has any helpful info.

Zurich,
I don't think the web-based Yahoo Messenger supports video, so nothing you can do with that.
http://messenger.yahoo.com/features/
I think there are Mac compatible MSN clients that will do video, (i.e. aMSN) Also, Microsoft plans on releasing an updated version of Messenger for Mac soon.
http://www.officeformac.com/blog/An-Update-on-Messenger-for-Mac
GoogleTalk does have a browser based video chat, but your friends would need to install a browser plug-in. (which I would assume that can't do either)
The best option is Skype, but also requires an install on their end (I would think that the internet cafes would/should have this available)
Good Luck,
Double_A

I did not deactivate a photoshop cs6 before there was a new "C" hard drive installed on my computer and a Win7 Pro fresh install too. How can I activate photoshop on the new hardware if I can't deactivate it on the old hardware that is no longer available? Any help will be appreciated.

If it's the same machine (same CPU) there should not be any need to activate. The actiovation is tied to your CPU.

Next time before having to pay this regular Microsoft tax, include your iTunes library with your computer's backup per the instructions included with this link.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1751
iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store from an iPod, iPad, or iPhone, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store only.
First you need to re-authorize your computer with your iTunes account with iTunes if you haven't already done so. With your iPad connected and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPad.

How much faster or better is the new iMac... really?

Hello all,
I have a 20" 2.33Ghz C2D iMac w/256Meg video RAM, and 3Gig of RAM. I understand that many factors come in to play when you compare the over all speed of a computer. How much faster, over all, is the new iMacs over the system I have? Has anyone tested the two next to each-other yet? I am sure the new one is faster in some ways, but is it really lots faster in over all performance, or just a little?
Apple //GS

Hi Patrice,
Within Apple’s slim new 21.5- and 27-inch iMacs are NVIDIA GeForce GPUs, based on our new Kepler-class architecture, which helps make them up to 60 percent faster than last year’s models. This follows news in June that Apple’s 15-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display uses Kepler GeForce GPUs.
The new 27-inch iMac offers the GeForce GTX 660M as its base GPU, with even faster GeForce GTX 675MX or GeForce GTX 680MX GPUs available. The 21.5-inch model comes with the GeForce GT 640M GPU, with an available upgrade to the GeForce GT 650M GPU.
http://blogs.nvidia.com/2012/10/big-imac-news-less-heft-more-kepler/
So, any Apps that use the GPU to assist GPU should be much faster.
Though I don't see it listed here, it may be too new, I suspect it may be supported...

How to play videos continously on the ipad

How do you play videos continuously on the new iPad?

Depending on what sites you are trying to access, you might find that some of them (probably more so if they are news sites) have their own apps in the App Store which might let you get some of the content that you want (and there is the built-in YouTube app). Also there are browsers such as Skyfire which 'work' on some sites - but judging by the reviews not all sites. If you want to play flash games then you are out of luck if you want to play on-line (unless something like the iSwiffter app work with it), but again some of them have app versions in the store.

How do you video chat when you can't attach an iSight?

Just curious. I was thinking of getting one a bit later and I do video chat a lot. How do you video chat when they don't produce the iSight anymore? Last I checked the displays don't have a built in iSight.

I use an iSight hanging upside down from one of the metal brackets that hold my shelf in place. I then use a program called iGlasses to rotate the image so the output is the correct side up. But if you can't get a hold of an iSight, there are plenty of other USB webcams out there that are compatible with Mac, and may or may not have solutions to attaching to monitors. I may have to buy one as my iSight no longer picks up sounds (dead microphone).
