HT1338 iChat

Why wont ichat open saying I don't have the latest version? Also it won't come up in my updates in my app store ... Any help ??

Hi,
To be clear Apple Added the iMessages function to iChat and changed the name to Messages.
Messages has a new interface (A main Window that acts as Chat Window and also links to Buddy lists for iChat style Connections and accesses the Contacts List (Formerly the Address Book) for iMessages conversations.
However it can be made to show the Buddy list and works just like ichat if you want it to.
Using the same Apple ID in Messages for iMessages and on iOS devices can then allow iMessages to be shown on all devices.

HT1338 ichat not connecting

Ihat is not connecting

Me too having same exact issues. AGAIN!!! This happened a few months back and I was down for a week. What I recall happening was when Apple did an upgrade to the .Mac stuff when the new version/enhancements were released, it screwed up the connectivity for many .Mac chat accounts. I bet something similar happened here again.
I can connect just fine through my AIM screen name, but cannot connect through any of my .Mac screen names. It's definitely something with just .Mac and nothing else. Same messages as everyone is reading below.
Hope to see a fix soon!!!

HT1338 My iChat isnt working any more.

People accept my video requests but it still displays as i am waiting for acceptance. wne people send me video requests nothing comes up on my side.. help please

Hi,
If you have two Screen Names and your Buddy is only using one of them at his end AND he has Allow Buddy List only then he will appear Off-Line to one of your Screen Names.
To state it as if you were the Buddy.
Lets Buddy 1 has two Screen Names A and B
You Add Buddy A to your Buddy List
Then you go to iChat > Preferences > Accounts > Security Settings tab
In here you set the option to Allow Buddy List Only
Your Buddy will only see you as On-line in his A Screen Name Buddy list even if he has added you to both.
His B Buddy List will not see you as On-Line as you have not Allowed him to
Providing that you have not entered the Jabber Screen Name as an AIM type by mistake in the iChat > Preferences > Accounts > + Button drop down bit that chooses the Account type for the Buddy List there should be no confusion.

Hello,
See if this helps...
Mac OS X 10.4 Help, I forgot a password in my Keychain
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.4/en/mh1960.html

How do i use my apple id with ichat?

how do i use my apple id with ichat?

Hi,
Only @Mac.com and MobileMe Apple IDs are valid AIM names as well (And the Passwords need to be 16 characters of Less - AIM end Issue).
If you have any other form of Apple ID then you will need to register for either an @mac.com name or create an AIM one.
NOTE The @Mac.com Registration requires you link an active Email to the @Mac.com name.
THIS CANNOT BE an Email address you have used for an Apple ID already.
The AIM Registration asks for Email address for Security and Password Recovery and is not Hard Linked in the same way (you could use the same email to set up multiple accounts/Screen Names)
To state things another way:-
A MobileMe ID is an Email address.
It is an Apple ID and will work in those places it is supposed to, iTunes, Apple Support Communities (with Alias set up), Face Time (With Registration) Apple On-Line Store, Mac App Store.
It is a Vlaid AIM NAme as well (If the password is kept to 16 characters or less).
@mac.com names are Apple IDs with the same access as above.
It is a Valid AIM Screen Name.
If it was registered before MobileMe started it maybe linked to a Current MobileMe account as a valid Email.
A Current Registration is purposely for iChat use and Requires a Non Apple current Email that is NOT linked to any other Apple ID
Any other name or Email used to create an Apple ID is not an Email with/through Apple.
It is NOT a valid AIM screen Name.
It is only an Apple ID that allows access to the places listed above.
If it is an email this cannot be used to Register with @mac.com
I hope this is clear.

Hi,
Welcome to the  Discussions
This line
/System/Library/Frameworks/IMCore.framework/iChatAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/iChatA gent
Tells you what is having problems and where it is on your Hard Drive.
As iChatAgent is having an issue I would start with deleting the .plist for it.
Go to your Home Folder/Library/Preferences and delete com.apple.ichatAgent.plist and restart iChat.

How do I use iChat (Jabber) to utilize my MSN account?

Heya,
So I have a client that their whole team uses MSN messenger, of course that is not the easiest thing to setup in iChat, but I've been told from various sources it can certainly be done. However, all the tutorials I've found on it are convoluted and I'm not very good at following instructions. Can anyone help?
Thanks!

Jabber worksok but weird things happend to me. I ended up with contacts of my contacts, people that I did not know they existed....Don't be surprise if you have people asking who you are.
Also, it seems that if you use live messenger on another computer and add new contacts, when you login back to jabber, it will pop up confirmation messeges. Also A/V does not seems to work with jabber. That was the only reason why I tried jabber and I was very disappointed
Bottom line, Ichat is nice if you pay the $100/year to use it, otherwise it *****

IChat - Synching Chatting History from multiple devices on same account

I currently have the iChat server up and running on a MacMini running OS X 10.6.4. I see in the iChat client on my MacBook Pro where it will load past messages when I open a chat with a buddy. I am also running a jabber client on my iPhone (IM+ is the iPhone app). What I am curious about is if there is a way to load chat history for the account, not just from the device.
For instance, when using Skype the following will occur. I can chat on my iPhone, and then when I login to my Laptop, the history of chats sent from my iPhone will be added to the history on my Laptop. I am trying to prevent having to look back at every device I use my jabber account on to find that one IM message that has the information I need.
Is there a way to sync the account on all clients (or at least just my MacBook Pro) so I can view chats there sent from all my devices and not just from my Laptop?

Tim,
I have turned on the logging feature inside of the iChat server, and I have seen all IMs being sent are saved.
So do you think this is more of a client side problem of not being able to sync from the Message Archive on the OS X Snow Leopard 10.64 iChat server? Meaning that if the IMs are being saved, then all that really needs to be done is to create a client that will access the server log and do a compare of its local saved history with the server saved history and then takes any missing IMs and adds to its local history log?
Am I far off base on this, or does this seem feasable?

How do I get messages to go back to an AIM account? It's only seeing the iPad's Facetime email address and not seeing the old AIM account name that is on my desktop. I am using my iMac using iChat to talk to a newer iMac that doesn't have iChat.

How do I get messages to go back to an AIM account? It's only seeing the iPad's Facetime email address and not seeing the old AIM account name that is on my desktop. I am using my iMac using iChat to talk to a newer iMac that doesn't have iChat. We had this working using Messages and Facetime (on the new machine) talking to my existing iChat account. One day last week, when Facetime rang, my kids answered on the iPad. Dang! Now it's all fouled up! The new iMac won't see my AIM account name and shows that I'm offline, because the iPad is off. We were able to call using "most recent call" in Facetime, but now I can't go and control that new iMac remotely to help with some email concerns the user is having. I'm trying to not personalize this too much, but it's grandkids talking to Grandma and Mom and Dad trying to solve new machine hiccups. Normally, I could just go in via iChat and control the other machine and troubleshoot, but I can't do it with Facetime only. My buddy list doesn't see the other computer even though we are connected on Facetime right now. My name is not highlighted for the other computer. What could have gone so wrong?
Any help would be appreciated.

Computers on small office network - names getting confused on iChat

We are using bonjour and iChat on the computers on a small airport network in our office as an instant messaging solution in our office - however, 2 of the computers (which are named differently) keep getting confused and both being called the same name.
I have done the fix where you go to System Prefs, Users & Groups and then set the address book card to that particular computer owner, restart the computer and then open iChat (using bonjour) - it saves the name but then my colleague becomes the same name as me on iChat - so we do the same thing to her computer (set address book card etc) and it changes her iChat name, but then also seems to override what I had set for mine previously.
Help!! What can I do to stop these 2 computers seemingly overriding each other? It doesn't happen with the other 4 computers sharing our network...

Hi,
In System Preferences > Sharing is the Name the Computer has.
This does play a part in any Bonjour Connection.
It is this name that appears in Shares in the Finders's Side bar.
Separate for that iChat and Messages that have the Bonjour Account Enabled broadcast the details from the My Card in the Address Book.
Issues can arise with some Server based Logins that create a Global Address book that changes the My Card.
You get similar difficulties on some DiskImage roll outs of updates and the like if the details of the Address Book are copied as well.
I am not sure what you mean by the "fix" in System Preferences > Users and Groups to change the My Card or the Computer's Name.
Yes you can click the Contact Card for that account and it will show you it in the Address Book and it should be th My Card.
Changing the My Card then does not alter which Card is associated with the Mac User Account.
There is no access to the Computer's Name

The mother of all iChat AV problems

All the computers listed below can text chat among themselves but almost all of them cannot audio or video iChat AV with each other.
I hope you can follow along, as this will get very complicated. It is a hard story to tell.
I have been working on this for about 3 weeks now. I have read just about every post in the past 3 weeks. A 2nd Level Apple Tech Support person said I should post this for all to read because it encompasses so many problems all at once without any results and I have some interesting situations. I have tried every single suggestion in the forum without any results. I have spent hours on the phone with Apple iChat support, 2nd level Apple support and Linksys support. I’m an experienced iChat AV person and have been video conferencing for 10 years, starting back with CU-SeeMe. Actually did Beta testing for that CODEC. At the end of this, I will tell you what I haven’t tried yet, and it’s only one thing. And Ralph Jones of the UK, I have read every page of your website about ichat AV and tried everything on it. Thanks for the good work along with everyone else.
I’m the tech administrator for a Day Care Center. At the Day Care Center there are 15 Macs; 12 new 14 inch iBooks - 1.3 GHz with 756 MB RAM, one -15inch PowerBook 1 GHZ with 1 Gig RAM., an iMac 1 GHz with 1 Gig RAM, and one – 17inch 1.67 GHz PowerBook with 1 Gig of RAM.
My office has 2 Macs using iChat AV, a PowerBook 400 Titanium – 500 MB RAM and a G5 – Dual 2GHz – 3500 MB RAM.
All ADSL connections, all Verizon DSL. There are 8 different locations involved in this. 7 locations are using Linksys WRT54G routers, version 2 and 5’s, all updated to the latest firmware. My office is using a Linksys WRT54GS version 1 also updated to the latest firmware. 7 locations are using Westell 2200 DSL modems, and the one residential location that is DHCP is using a Westell 6100 Modem, the 6100 is set to default settings.
7 locations have static IP’s from the ISP and the 8th location is DHCP direct from Verizon (a typical residential set-up). Each location has 2 computers associated with it, all with iSight cameras. All 17 computers are using iChat AV through an AIM account.
All the computers are running OS 10.4.3 and are up to date as of this posting, including the J2SE 5.0 ver. 3 update and the Security Update 2005-009.
At my office and the office of the Day Care Center, all the computers are designated with a static IP. At the other locations the computers are DHCP, set to automatically get an IP from the router.
In all attempts to video iChat with all the computers, whenever an attempt is made, the 2 computers always get a video preview window and they say, “Starting video chat with …”, but then the dreaded responses always follow after trying to accept; “Did not respond”, “Fail to start video chat”, or “Cancelled the connection.”
So first, my office and the Day Care Office (DCO) have been video conferencing for over 1 year with iChat AV, but now we can no longer video chat. The only thing that changed was at both locations the routers went form an older Linksys WAP54G (A, B, & G) router to the WRT54GS ver. 1 at my office and a WRT54G ver.2 at the DCO a while ago. I can no longer video conference to the DCO nor can they video conference to me between any combination of the 4 computers at the 2 locations (a G5, PB 400, PB 1 GHz, iMac 1 GHz.). Not to long ago they all could video iChat with each other.
My office (with both computers) can iChat with the one location that is DHCP (the Verizon residential setup – both routers set to their defaults, no special stuff). But I can only video conference with the iBook not the PowerBook. In reverse, the iBook can call me but the PB can not. I have brought the PowerBook back to my office and it can video iChat back to the iBook at it’s location from the PowerBook that came from that location. The PB can even connect to my 2 computers on my router at my office. We did a 3 way to the iBook with my G5 hosting, the PowerBook at my office and the iBook at it’s location. When I take the PoweBook back to it’s original location (where the iBook is – the residential location) it can’t video conference with my office, no matter who calls whom.
In the remaining 6 locations, none of the computers can iChat with any of the other locations at all. I have only been able to iChat with the one location that is the Verizon DHCP location (residential setup) and only to the iBook not the PowerBook.
Now to get even weirder, as I said each location has at least 2 computers. At each of the 7 locations (but not my office), the 2 computers at that location, on the same router, can iChat between themselves over AIM (not BonJour) but they can not video chat with any of the other 7 locations.
All 17 computers connect correctly to the Apple iChat test sites: appleU3test01 and appleU3test03 at very good speeds. Oh speaking of speeds, when I first thought maybe it was a connection speed problem, I checked each location by downloading a file off the ISP’s server to check actual speeds, no connection is slower than 75 KB/s, most are plus 150 KB/s downloading the file. I tried 5 different DSL speed websites such as DSLReports.com and they are so inaccurate for testing speeds, they’re not worth using. I would get variations of speeds sometimes 400 to 500 Kbps difference between web services from the same computer at basically the same time.
To recap, my office G5 can only chat with one computer of the 17, the iBook at the Verizon residential setup. The PowerBook from the residential setup can chat back to its home connection to the iBook from my office only. None of the other computers can chat with each other from one location to the other. All the computers (except my G5 and the one iBook) can only chat with the other computer that is located on the same router.
I have concentrated on trying to get my office and the DCO connected. I have tried everything. That’s why after talking with Apple about this, the tech said to post this. Not many people will have so many computers simultaneously to work with. He even said I tried everything.
The one thing I haven’t tried is removing the Linksys router from both ends of a connection and just go through the Westell Modem. There is too much involved changing over the 2 offices or the other locations with all the computers at each location. I can’t afford to experiment that way with working business situations. These are not home environments.
I’m still not sure if the problem is an Apple thing with the latest updates or a router problem because the firmware updates have installed a lot of security stuff. I never had to even consider Port Forwarding or anything. iChat AV with the Linksys routers in their default settings just worked.
One odd thing I noticed while I did all this testing, if you have 2 computers at the same location that both have the same apple test site in the buddy list (example: appleU3test01) when one connects to the test site, the other computer lists the buddy as in use, and the second computer can not connect to it. As soon as the first computer disconnects, it becomes available to the second computer. You would think the test site can handle multiple people at the same time. In addition, each computer can connect to a different test site at the same time over the same router. I don’t know what it means, I just found it interesting.
Thanks for listening,
Jim

EZ Jim & Ralph, I appreciate your suggestions.
EZ - I have not had time to view entirely your website on ichat. It looks pretty complete. Too busy. Equipment conflicts I don't believe I have any. There is nothing on any of the computers except the iSight camera. No other external or internal equipment added. Very little software other than Microsoft Office 2004 and a cople of other things. They are not loaded with stuff, pretty basic.
Also each little network location works fine, the only thing I'm having trouble with is Video Chat. They all text chat to each other just fine, including the Windows machines (some locations have windows xp machines only).
Ralph - first - each Day Care location is in a different building around our community and each has a DSL line with it's own static IP from the internet service provider. Each location has one Westell Modem/Router 2200 that has been made into a modem, setting it up as a bridge as my service provider requested. And each location has a Linsys Router with the Static IP to the ISP. Each computer has it's own AIM address.
On the Modem I changed the IP address so it wasn't the same as the Linksys Router.
I want to say, I think like you that it's the modem. I got that feeling from your last post.
I have checked out my G5 and I can Video Chat to a lot of people (settings below). I restored it back to the way it was originally set up when I could video chat with the Day Care Center Office (DCCO). I can chat with my son (he has similar Linksys WRT54G Router, the version I still don't have, and an iSight camera), my parents (they have a cable modem, and an old Linksys A&G Router, iSight), my neighbor (I lent him one of my iSights, he has Verizon Fiber Optic and a Apple Extreme Base Station). All video chatted fine.
My Linksys is now set to defaults. I restored everything back. This is how it was prior to all the testing (port forwarding, etc.)
Security: Firewall protection is enabled. Block Anonymous Internet Requests, Filter Multicast, Filter IDENT (Port 113) are all checked and on. Filter Internet NAT redirection is not checked.
Administration: UPnP is Enabled.
Applications & Gaming: No Port Forwarding, No Port Triggering, No DMZ, No QoS.
The one thing different in all this is the Modem. I am using a discontinued Westel Wirespeed model; A90-210015-04.
My son is using the same type Router (different version) but a different Westell modem (I don't know which yet) He has Version DSL. The Router is set to defaults like mine is now and we conference fine.
The DCCO who I use to video chat with but can not now, has had the Modem and the Router changed. They had an old Linksys A&G router and an old discontinued Westel Wirespeed model similar to mine (the model I don't know yet). Now they have a Linksys WRT54G ver. 2 and a Westell 2200 Modem/Router (set up as a modem only).
So I'm going to work on the Modem theory first at the DCCO. I'm going to try to put the old modem back and see if it works. I can only do this on Fridays when only one person is in the office. I can't shut them down to test this. So I'll get back to you after Friday.
Thanks again for your good and helpful suggestions.
Jim
Gee, I wish they would have left the spell checker in this forum.

IChat will not audio/video connect after first attempt

Hi all, this is my first time at posting on any discussion site so please excuses my ignorance, and thank you in advance for any help you see fit to give me.
I have had a good look through all the posts here and a good search through the web to find help as well as a 3 hour call to Apple! Still no luck yet, please help!! I come across similar problems but this seem to be a bit different?
I am trying to connect to my family using iChat 4.0. The set up at my end is the same as my family. We both purchased at the same time in December new 24"iMac's 2.8GHz running Leopard 10.5.1. The imacs are connected via ethernet cable to new Apple Airport extremes, the new style ones. in turn the extremes are connected to new M3 X-modems then to our broadband internet connection wall sockets. We both use Zen internet as our ISP. We both have .mac full accounts
We have both used ichat before on our old iMacs/router set up using 10.4 and ichat 3 without any problems, that was via the same ISP and at the same locations.
We have connected to each other using Text without problems and have connected via video chat the first time we used the new set up and also some of the times when we make changes to some settings some where within the ichat or prefs settings, but only the once then it stops working. But it stops there. Most of the time we cannot connect at all apart from text. We have tried many things at both ends on the connection using all the leads I have found in these posts as well as the things Apple told me to do, but no luck.
So far I have tried it with the Leopard firewall off (allowing all incoming connections) and also on with iChat listed as one of the apps. (this was done after the update to 10.5.1 as this update was out before we purchased the macs so it was install from day one once we started up) I have turn off the .mac encryption at both ends and on. I have set the Quicktime stream speed to the '1.5Mbps T1/ Setting' and also set the iChat Bandwidth limit to 1Mbps as well as none and other speeds. Plus other changes on the Airport extreme as instructed by Apple all of which failed and I ended up back with the original setting (after losing all internet access at one point!).
When we try and connect via anything other than text, it starts off by trying to connect then after about 15 secs or so we both get a message at each end of the connection saying.......
+There was a communication error during your iChat.+
+Did not receive a respone from (our names). You can send details about this problem to apple to help improve future versions of iChat+

(plus the rest of the stuff)....... this means very little to me.
I may have left out some vital information, and if so sorry but just ask and I'll fill it in if it can help solve the problem for us.
If anyone can help with this matter than many thanks in advance.

Hi Ralph,
Thanks for the links. I have had a look at the ADSL Nation web site, and yes I did set my modem up as they state, the DNS server was removed.
Thinking back to when I had just the modem connected straight to the computer without the Airport (as per you suggestion) and iChat worked including the video, it would make me think that the problem lays with the Airport? But by the sounds of your last post the Airport does not have settings to be able to change DoS or SPI or it does not make any difference anyway/ or it Automatic?? Is that what you mean?
I have noticed on other posts people talking about having a list of ports open for iChat. As on your web site as well. However I think your web site is looking towards iChat3, I think? I'm think that iChat 4 is different when it comes to port opening??. Is this something I have to set up on the Airport and if so how? The list of ports go something like this, that I've seen.....
5190, 5220, 5222, 5223, 5298 TCP and 5060, 5190, 5297, 5298, 5353, 5678, 16384-16403 UDP
I just saw this in a new post.( http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1331562&tstart=0 )
Are they ports on the Airport or iMac? I was thinking that by adding the iChat to the list on the Firewall that all the ports that need to be open would be opened by Leopard? Or do I need to do this manually as well on the Airport? Does Bonjour have anything to do with this? Is that something I need to look into.
Thanks for the on going help with this one, it seems to be a strange one!

I can no longer log into my ichat linked to my gmail. right after opening up ichat, receive the following message: lost connection with jabber. the server has unexpectedly disconnected.

i can no longer log into my ichat linked to my gmail. right after opening up ichat, receive the following message: lost connection with jabber. the server has unexpectedly disconnected. how to troubleshoot? thanks.

Hi,
There can be many reasons why the Login is "up the creek".
Any break in the network at your end whilst logged in will cause an issue.
A sort of discrepancy between what iChat thinks the state should be and what the server thinks.
If they don't agree the server will refuse to accept.
A Crash at the server end which does not log you out properly will also do it.
Any file at any time can be come corrupted.
Luckily with the iChat .plists they are recreated if removed with an iChat Restart.
If it were AIM you can also get your Account Suspended and this will not log you in.
(It tends to happen from Chat rooms where people notify AIM about bad behaviour (as they see it) and you have to apply to get Un-suspended).
Most of the big IM services use multiple servers.
Sometimes these go out of Sync.
In the case of AIM this happens when they remove Old unused Screen Names from people's Buddy List prior to making them available for re-registration. I am not sure if this happens at Google.
You seem to be talking about an account that has worked at Work and having new computer at home.
As I mentioned the Priority thing you have not said that it has coincided with the new computer logging in (this will kick the work Computer out of Google whether you are logged in on the Web Mail page or in iChat)
IN addition to that iChat stays partially logged in for Off Line IMs
This is done in the background by a support app called iChatAgent
If your Computer is ON but ichat is not started people can still send you Messages.
Instead of saving these on the server until you login iChat will start up.
Depending if the home Mac is effecting the Work Login it may be holding sway over your Login.
Using your girlfriend's login may have booted her Off Line where she normally uses the name/login.
The AIM Side can be specifically set to allow Multiple Logins and therefore NOT allow them. If this happens you get a warning and messages to do something about it.
You do not get these in any Jabber or Google Login as the Priority setting is supposed to take care of it.
If the Login works at the Web Mail Login and on one computer then the .plist on the work computer is the most likely issue.
There is a small chance that a Corrupt Buddy Pic (Home Folder/Library/Caches/com.apple.iChat/Pictures) may be the cause.
Set this folder to icon view and also use the Finder's View Menu > Show View Options and select icon view.
This should show all pics as their icon.
Check that all display properly.
At this point I would try a COMBO version update install of the last Update you did over what you have.
This often corrects hard to trace things

Just today, my macbook is starting to hate me. I turn it on, go into ichat, i connect, i can see my buddies, but i get the spinning wheel, and it NEVER goes away. I cant even force quit ( i click, but it doesnt).
And then i noticed that screen captures take a lot longer than they usually do to appear on the desktop, and my cursor started lagging.
I dont know what the deal is. Please help.

Hi,
It does not look that busy from those figures.
If Activity Monitor is Open I would look more specifically at the CPU Column.
If you click the Header/title of this column the list will be reordered base of those details with the heaviest using app at the top.

Unable to Log In iChat

Hi,
So I have had a macbook for a while and quite a bit ago I had a problem with iChat. It was unable to log me in one day, it would constantly try and try until I got the error that I had attempted too many times. I'm not quite sure what is wrong. I called support and they couldn't help me diagnose it so I ended up downloading Adium. Well I just recently bought a Mac Book Pro and I transfered everything over to the Pro, and I am still having the same error with iChat. I'm guessing it's some where in my settings but I can't find it. My log in and pass word are correct...
Please help

Hi
Try logging on to AIM on port 443 rather than port 5190.
Go to IChat in the menu bar > Preferences > Accounts.
Log out of AIM and then use the Server Settings tab
Set the port to 443.
Log back in again.
