How do you end screen sharing without disconnecting

How do you go back to the regular video chat once you've started screen sharing. it seems that closing the window only disconnects me. I'd like to revert back to the regular video chat once I'm finished with screen sharing.

Text chats are on a completely different port and will not be effected by dropping an AV chat.
In fact doing things the other way you can Video to a Buddy then Log out of the Buddy List that the Buddy is in and go Offline.
The A/V chats are Peer to Peer once connected. (except for Video through AIM Servers in iChat 5)
In the two years we have had Leopard and iChat 4's Screen Sharing we have not discovered a way to get a Screen Share to go back to the A/V type chat it was having before.
iChat Help offers no info on it working this way.

  • HT2534 How can I use "Family Sharing" without giving details of my credit or debit card? I do not want to give my cards data, I have always used iTunes prepaid cards.

    Hi Saramos,
    When setting up Family Sharing you must have a credit or debit card as your payment method. See this article for reference -
    Family purchases and payments
    When a family member makes a purchase it will be billed to any gift or store credit that they have first. If none exists it will be billed to you.
    As the family organizer, you may not set your billing method for purchases to anything other than a credit or debit card. If you have a store credit such as from pre-paid cards, it may not be shared with other family members. See this article for reference -

    You may have to do this several times.
    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

  • How can you listen to music without headphones?

    How can you listen to music without headphones?

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
    Apple - iPod Repair price
    A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

  • I want to be able to monitor my teen daughter's computer from home using screen sharing.  Anyone know how to set up screen sharing when my daughter's school has her computer set up for Apple Remote Desktop?

    I want to be able to monitor my teen daughter's computer from home using screen sharing.  Anyone know how to set up screen sharing when my daughter's school has her computer set up for Apple Remote Desktop? 

    ARD won't be as smooth as you think  over the Internet and be a security risk for your daughter.
    Your best bet would be to install nannyware, then when she's asleep you can review the logs.
    This is the best and Mac friendly

  • How do you switch to streaming without deleting synched photos in AppleTV?

    I have synced my photos onto my AppleTV and use them as my screen saver. I'd like to keep these photos on my Apple TV and also use the stream function to listen to my music playlists and movies. When I switch the option to streaming everything is deleted from my Apple TV, including the photos that I use as the screensaver. How do you switch to streaming without deleting synched photos in the Apple TV?

    Firstly, the ctrl-click option says turn of syncing not turn on streaming, but I'm not at all sure this is really what you want to do.
    In itunes, select the tv from the device list, then in the main part of the iTunes window select the summary tab and ensure you have custom sync enabled and that 'show only synced items' is unchecked.
    Click sync from the bottom RH corner, your tv should now see all the content in itunes provided it is checked. See This.
    Now you can work your way through all the tabs in the main window and select/deselect any content you want/don't want to sync.

    PrPro may have that but I've always just gone over to Audition ... you change speed there, you're given a choice of keeping the pitch the same or allow it to change. Note ... if there's much cha ge in speed the result can be odd.

  • How can you delete an app without losing saved data/progress?

    How can you delete an app without losing saved data/progress? Is there a way through iCloud? I have an 8gb 4th gen iPod touch. I have a lot of music, so with 8gb, space is limited. Some apps I have take up 20-30 MB. Some of these games I don't play that much, but I don't delete them because I have made a lot of progress (levels, scores, acheivements). It would be nice to delete some of these 30 MB apps that take up precious space, and them redownload them in the future when I have more space, but without having to start the whole game over.
    Also, I read somewhere that there might be a way to do this with iCloud, but I don't really know how.
    Thanks!

    This is the only way I know of.  It is messy though.
