HT203585 a FaceTime half duplex issue with my Mac--OS 10.10.2

I am having a half duplex problem with my Mac---OS 10.10.2
That is, when the party I FaceTime with is talking, they cannot hear me.
I can hear then other party when we both talk---it happens whether or not
I initiate the call or the other party does. It doesn't happen with my iPhone
on the same home wifi network. And it happens on the Mac when
the iPhone FaceTime is turned off too.

You can use both.:)

I have a issue with my mac book pro. For some reason it won't stay powered on. I can't get past the apple loading logo. The battery is fully charged so it is not the problem. Can anyone tell me what the problem may be and how can i get it resolved?

What happens when you use the MagSafe?

Hey guys, so I have a DVD stuck in the CD drive on my mac. It reads it as being in there, but I cannot eject it and it is causing my a lot of issues with my mac. If i try to eject it, Finder acts up and I have issues saving projects or even browsing files

hey guys, so I have a DVD stuck in the CD drive on my mac. It reads it as being in there, but I cannot eject it and it is causing my a lot of issues with my mac. If i try to eject it, Finder acts up and I have issues saving projects or even browsing files. I feel like it interferes with iPhoto as well because it says it is locked and I have no rights to view it. I wanted to see if anyone else had/s this issue and how you fixed it before lugging it into the apple store and being without a computer for a few weeks...

A few other suggestions here as well:

I have an older apple keyboard, either a M2452 or a M7803. Do these have compatibility issues with 2012 Mac Minis?

I understand that you can connect any keyboard to a Mac Mini, my concern is that the modern Apple keyboards I have seen seem to have a layout much more similar to their PC counterparts. ie, they no longer have the "apple" key, etc.
Will I be missing functionality (using this older Apple keyboard)?

FaceTime - Serious security issue with Beta

I just had a quick play with FaceTime and too my horror have discovered that when you go to Preferences > View Account the summary screen shows the Date of Birth and the answer to your secret question in the clear. The Account password is obscured, but by having the other information exposed, it is a trivial matter for anyone that gains access to a Mac that has been set up with FaceTime to run riot with one's iTunes and Apple Store accounts that are associated with the Apple ID.
I think I'll shy away from it for a bit.

My "to my horror" was that I received (and granted) a request from "apsd-ft.apple.com" to load perform an update, and I became mistrustful as I watched a full 12-minute load in at DSL speeds, without any other i.d. occurring. I reacted too slowly to the possibility it was a spoof and didn't truncate if quickly enough.
As a consequence this busy-beaver "upgrade" (trojan) immediately severed my TimeMachine... knowing I'd try to reconstruct a version of my MacBook Pro preceding the download; denied further reading of my boot disk to TimeMachine; made the (new) external backup drive unbootable... by that machine anyway; changed about four pages of permissions to give itself writing powers and to block attempts to see it or eliminate it; and then inserted a routine to prevent fixing permissions. Any permission fix does tons of stuff... and then at the end of the "fix" all errors are reset back to their previous "error" state favouring the trojan which rode in upon some FaceTime security breach.
As a consequence my MacBook Pro is a deer blinded in the headlights, and no backup is possible (or desirable... I don't want to over-write the last good version). I must get FaceTime out but I'm not sure what it will take to completely eliminate this little sieve-like monster.

[Resolve startup issues and perform disk maintenance with Disk Utility and fsck|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214]
[Using Disk Utility in Mac OS X 10.4.3 or later|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302672]
[Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25751]
From BDaqua (couldn't have said it better):
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer (Edit: Do not use this disc if it is not the same general version as what you have currently on your computer, e.g. use a Tiger disc for a Tiger drive, not a Panther disc), then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk.
Then Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes."

IMovie transitions issue with retina mac?

Does anyone have an issue with adding transitions in a video in iMovie on the 13" RETINA macbook pro? I have imported a .mov file and I can't put transitions between the video. iMovie starts to do this weird thing where it shortens the video and displaces the video on the timeline. Has anyone else encounter that?

Quality issues with new Mac Mini 09?

I've been itching to hit the 'buy' button -- but in reading the many postings about the new Mac Mini, I'm seeing lots of issues with the bluetooth ... *wireless signal* ...
Is there anyone who's not experiencing any problems?
Sounds like it may be a hardware issue with connections... the last thing I want.
My other choice is the 2008 Mac Pro which seems trouble free.
What do you think?
Thanks.

There is a general issue/trend with the new Mini. There are plenty of reports in these forums and the news has begun to hit the wider press; I guess this is more important to a company with only 2-3% desktop share than posts to these forums. I went to the Genius Bar on Saturday and they have now lodged an official bug report with Apple. It looks like the Mini cannot pair with more than one HCI device. So if you pair with the mouse first the keyboard won't work and vice-versa. They don't think the Mini hardware is broken but that we will just have to wait for Apple to fix the firmware.
Where I do agree is that some issues are OS-X 10.5 related and can therefore affect all Macs. The WiFi has issues where it randomly drops, it doesn't seem able to re-connect at all to channels above 13 and only manually to channels below 12. The system resume function is unreliable. All these started when we moved from 10.4 to 10.5 and so far they have not been addressed. One issue is that there does not appear to be a way for users to log bug reports, except when software crashes. However, the bluetooth issues on the Mac do appear real and are either firmware or hardware related.

IPhone 4S - Syncing issues with a Mac

I've tried almost everything! I have the latest versions of Itunes, iOS7, and running OS x 10.9. I cant sync music between my iPhone 4S and my Mac or my wife's iPhone4 and the Mac. Very frustrating, I don't manually manage music I sync my playlists and videos. I've tried to restore and restart both phones but nothing! When I purchase music now, I have to wait until it downloads and then create or modify a playlist on the phone itself, I can't even get purchases to transfer, if i make them on the Mac. It began after I performed the latest iOS7 update. Help please!!!

Thanks @Awol1404 I do have a lot of songs with just a circle of dots on the device through Itunes, some of these songs come up on the device itself as greyed out with a (stop download icon (circle with square in the middle)) i've tried to remove all the songs my unchecking the sync music box and checking the manually mangage box. I press sync or apply and itunes does its thing. On Itunes the device then comes up as having 2 playlists (one voice memos and 1 random playlist from what i had) and thats it. I can reboot the computer and when i plug it back in it still says that that is what is on the phone. on the phone itself, there has been no changes except maybe the odd song greyed out. Very confusing, frustrating and well... frustrating!!!!
I have no issues with iCloud syncing, contacts and messages, emails, calendars are all working how they should.

Two weird issues with my Mac Pro (locking up and failing to reboot)

Hello,
I am having two problems with my Mac Pro. The first one is every time I put it to sleep and then wake it up it locks up. This problem came after I installed Leopard (in Tiger sometimes it would take longer to come out of sleep but it always came out). My other problem showed up after I installed Leopard as well, every time I go up to the apple menu and click on restart my computer dose everything normal but when it goes to the “off” state it sits there and reboots over and over and over again. I don’t ever hear the bong or see the grey start screen; I can just hear my CD-ROM drives being accessed (clicking sound I usually hear when I turn the computer on) over and over again. I have run the Apple Hardware Test and it comes back clean, I have also reset the SMC and zapped the PRAM.
I was wondering if anyone had any experience with these problems and knew how to fix them.

This is exactly what my Mac Pro did before it died last Friday (9 November 2007).
Apple keeps saying Mac Pro death isn't common, but I've talked to a dozen people whose Pro died just like mine did.
Apple gave me a brand new Pro Sunday, which was nice of them, and I probably was just unlucky with the first one.
Still, it is obvious that Apple is having QC issues lately.
USB video devices will crash a Mac Pro consistently, for example. It's really disappointing because the machine is very nice otherwise.

Migration Assistant and permissions issues with new Mac Pro

Hi There,
I've not had any significant issues with Migration Assistant in the past but I can't create a reliable system with my new Mac Pro.
After using Migration Assistant during the initial setup, my user account wasn't even transferred. I tried restarting but in the end, I followed these instructions to reset and run the assitant again: http://stationinthemetro.com/2013/11/10/make-mavericks-re-run-the-setup-assistan t
I've just finished running it for a second time, and while the user account is now on my new system, there are so many permissions issues that the system is unusable (I can't even run Safari). Creative cloud, 1Password, safari, Dropbox are all apps that give me Disk i/o or permissions errors.
If I look in the user folder, many directories within it have a red minus icon. I've tried fixing permissions using Disk Utility but something is not right.
In the past, the new system just boots like the old one but this time round, it asked me to create an account after Migration Assistant had finished - is this normal? I used the same username and password as before but I'm not sure Migration Assistantis working properly.
Does anyone know a full-proof way of fixing and transferring my account without having to spend hours downloading OSX for a full erase and install?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Ben

Thanks for the reply,
I didn't understand exactly what to put into AppleScript sorry (never used it before) - so I just ran the following from the Terminal:
$ echo $UID
$ sudo chown -R 503 ~
And restarted - everything works now - thanks heaps.
What had happened and is this something I did or did Migration Assistant just get confused?
I have 3 new Mc Pros to setup on Monday so just want to ensure those are hassle free.
Cheers

BOOT ROM VERSION ISSUES WITH MINI MAC POWERPC G4 (1.2)

HI,
I AM HAVING SOME BOOT PROBLEMS ON REBUILDING MY MAC MINI. WHENEVER I PUT IN A BRAND NEW COPY OF EITHER PANTHER OR TIGER THE BOOT SCREEN WITH THE APPLE LOGO CRASHES AND FUNNY GRAPHICS APPEARS, RESULTING IN A FORCED REBOOT AND USING F12 TO EJECT THE CD. THE MAC MINI IS FINE BOOTING OFF OF ITS OWN MANUFACTURE CD, WHICH IS A COPY OF PANTHER, BUT WON'T UPGRADE WITH ANY TIGER DISKS. I HAVE EVEN MANAGED TO CHANGE THE DISKS WITH SOMEBODY ELSE WHO WAS SUCCESSFUL IN UPGRADING TO TIGER.
I HAVE LOOKED ON THE INTERNET AND OTHER PEOPLE HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM. THEY MENTIONED THAT I SHOULD CHANGE/UPDATE MY BOOT ROM VERSION FROM 4.8.9F1 TO 4.9.8F4.
DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHERE I CAN GET THIS BOOT ROM UPDATE? I HAVE LOOKED ON APPLE DOWNLOADS, BUT NOTHING APPEARS TO HELP. ANY OTHER SUGGESTIONS APPREACIATED.
MANY THANKS
SUPERHEROTIMO

Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
First, a word of etiquette, writing your post in ALL CAPS is considered the same thing as yelling. Please don't use ALL CAPS when writing your messages.
Exactly which Mac mini do you have? Is it a G4 Mac mini running at 1.2, 1.3, 1.4 or 1.5GHz? (If it came with Panther install disks, it couldn't be an Intel Mac mini.) Which version of Mac OS X came with your Mac mini? Some of the earlier Mac minis shipped with Mac OS X 10.3.7 and will not startup from any earlier version (most of the retail copies of Panther are 10.3.0 or 10.3.4). If it's a Mac mini that shipped later, it would have come with Mac OS X 10.4.2 and, again, won't startup from any earlier version (most retail copies of Tiger were 10.4.0 but now have 10.4.4). Trying to startup from a disk that's the wrong version will usually cause a "kernel panic" and force you to restart.
So, if your Mac mini shipped with Mac OS X 10.3.7, you should be able to use any retail copy of Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) to update your computer. However, you won't be able to update to 10.4 from the install disk that came with another Mac. You will need to buy a retail copy of your own.
There are no firmware updates available to download to upgrade the "Boot ROM" on your G4 Mac mini, so that option is really not available.

Sleeping issue with new mac mini

i have a new c2d 2.0 mac mini all software is up to date. the first night i was able to put it to sleep without any problems but since then when i try to put it to sleep by eithre the apple menu or hitting (eject,apple,option) the dvd drive clicks and the mini wakes up all in 5 seconds.
another sleep problem is with both mac mini's (the c2d and g4 1.42) neither will go to sleep with an external harddrive connected (mounted or not and still powered on) I have looked for an answer to this problem for a while and have found nothing. i thought i saw a thread on this very subject but have yet to find it again
thanks for help
Nick

Hello,
It's nothing to really start worrying about, it's most likely down to a communication error between your hardware and your software. The simple solution is:
1) Unplug all cables from the computer, including the power cord.
2) Wait 15-20 seconds.
3) Press and hold the power button on the back of the computer
4) Whilst holding the power button, plug the power cord back into the machine
5) Release the power button
6) Press the power button once more to start up your Mac mini.
Everything should be sorted! (if not, call back here)
Good luck
