HT2515 I am having trouble keeping one of my buddies in my buddy list.  Any suggestions?

I was able to add all my buddies, but one.  I have no idea why the buddy will only flash for a second and then disappear.  Any suggestions on what the problem may be? 

HI,
Yep.
This Buddy is already in your Address Book.
Lets say the Buddy's "Real"  name is Albert Longshanks.
The Buddy tells you their Screen Name and you enter this and try to fill in the First name, Last name spots with Albert Longshanks.
You cannot have two Albert Longshanks in your Address Book without making a distinction between the two.
In iChat the Buddy will appear to Flash On and Off before finally not appearing.
See http://www.ralphjohns.co.uk/page15.html#_Can_not_Add
You will see on this page that iChat used to tell you in a Audio manner that the name did not work and in some cases tell you it was an Feedbag error.  (iChat has not done this since iChat 4)
It will be easier to open the Address Book, select the Person and Add their Screen name to the Card.

  • Having trouble placing RAW / dng files in idesign 5.5. Any suggestions?

    Having trouble placing RAW / dng files in idesign 5.5. Any suggestions?
    Here's what i've done so far:
    Updated my raw plug in
    I shoot on canon rebel t3-i

    Open the RAW or DNG file in Photoshop as a Smart Object. Then save as a PSD file. Place the PSD in InDesign with File > Place
    InDesign cannot place RAW files. However, if you use the workflow I suggest, you can still edit the RAW/DNG files if needed. To edit, choose Edit Original from the InDesign Links panel, and the PSD image will open up. Then double-click the smart object and it will open in Adobe Camera Raw. Saving the changes in PSD will update them in InDesign.

  • Two Laptop Computers, Latitude-XP & Prasario-Vista both with 4.0.1 are having trouble keeping navagation window visable even with navagation checked. Any other reports of the same?

    I have been using firefox for a few years now. I like it better than I-explorer but in the last version, 4.0.1 I am having problems accessing the navigation window.
    On two computers: Dell Latitude D530 running XP with XP standard browser. The other is a HP Compaq Presario CQ50 running Vista and Stardock Windowblinds.
    Both computers have the same problem with the current version of Firefox only. The navigation window will not stay displayed. I right click to view that the navigation option is checked but navigation is not there. If I right click and pick options, the navigation window suddenly appears but when I pick done, it disappears again.
    I either have to use a bookmark to navigate where I want or go to my Google search bookmark to get where I want.

  • I am having trouble keeping the quality of my video when exporting to my external drive.  I change the kind to "original" but when I view the video from the external drive once exported, the sound and picture are distorted.

    I am having trouble keeping the quality of my video when exporting to my external hard drive.  I have tried to export from iphoto with changing kind to "original" but when I open the video from the external drive the quality is effected.  I have also tried copying the video to my desktop and then dragging and dropping onto the drive...same problem. Any suggestions?  I would like to save everything to my external drive so that I can delete all of iphoto library and then reimport to correct a few things.

    The file sizes are identical.  In the finder I did a search for all .mov files.  Then when they came up, I went through them and named each one so that they would be easier to find.  I am a new mac user and am used to windows.  I realized later that I should not have done this....with a mac files should be named within iphoto app...not finder....When I went to open the videos in iphoto, it wouldn't allow me.  I had to go into finder, copy to desktop and reimport into iphoto.  Then the videos worked again.  However, I had the problem with the poor video quality when copied to external drive before that.  Actually the first problem I had was when I copied to ext drive...videos were copying as an image...so I learned that you have to change "kind" to original before exporting....then that problem was solved...now they are videos, not images but not of a great quality.  Skips, sound and images are not in sync...etc...

  • I am having trouble keeping wifi connection on my ipad2 and iPhone 5. AT

    I Am having trouble keeping my wifi connection on iPhone 5 but especially ipad2. Have had IPad checked out and is fine. At
    &T has changed the router 3 times but no help.  Will a different router other than AT&T solve this problem and if so, which one.

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at
    http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.
    Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim

        Hi Hallry,
    Let's free your device! It's important to have a properly working device. Have you attempted an alternate Hard Reset on the device http://vz.to/19r2DOO? If the alternate Hard Reset does not work, then the device would need to be replaced. How long have you had this device? Any liquid or physical damage to the device? Keep me posted

  • I have several iCloud shared photo streams . They all download fine into my iPhone, but one doesn't download into my MacBook. Any suggestions?

    I have several iCloud shared photo streams . They all download fine into my iPhone, but one doesn't download into my MacBook. Any suggestions?

    Tried that too over the weekend,I unchecked the Photos option in iCloud preferences in System, let iPhoto do it's thing, then restarted the Mac, and turned iCloud Photos back on again... it looked promising the first hour... but then stopped downloading 20 or so albums. I have over 80 shared albums created over the years.
    Also, the albums it did download, sometimes they're not even complete nor in any particular order.
    I did exactly what you did. It took two days, but slowly all shared streams came back.
    If the photo streams do not reappear, try if removing the content of this folder will help: It contains the photos downloaded from the shared streams. Perhaps one photo is corrupted.
    ~/Library/Application Support/iLifeAssetManagement/assets/sub-shared/
    Quit iPhoto
    Move the folder above from your User Library to the Trash.
    Restart your Mac.

  • Dvd stoped being recognized by my cumputer macbook pro the last ones made before unibody came out anybody have any suggestions as to what might be wrong?

    dvd stoped being recognized by my cumputer macbook pro the last ones made before unibody came out anybody have any suggestions as to what might be wrong?

    My eyes just glazed over...Please in the future break down each of your issues with paragraphs separated by two carriage returns. It would be much easier when trying to address your issues.
    Go to Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Keyboard and Mouse -> Mouse
    And edit your mouse settings to do what you want it to do.
    Secondly, this is not the place to vent. If you have a complaint, there is:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/
    or http://www.apple.com/contact/
    We are just end users here helping other end users.
    Third, from my understanding, it would appear you are concerned about the noise the hard drive makes when it falls asleep? Why not put your machine in screen saver mode instead? Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Energy Saver turn off all Energy Saver settings, or set them to run Never.
    Fourth, if your machine was purchased just a few days ago, you may still be able to get an exchange from the store, quicker than you can get a repair done. You may want to look into that possibility.
    Fifth, it does appear you found the Logic forum. I would persist in asking there how to solve your technical issue with Logic regarding the audio. It may be you don't have to do anything special to the hard drive. Remember audio can be transmitted by wire, avoiding ambient sounds.
    Good luck!

  • Why am I having trouble keeping my itunes and ATV synced?

    After syncing my Itunes with Apple TV, everything, movies, music, photos, etc. shows up on my apple tv under My Movies, etc. First question is, Are my movies, etc, now on the hard drive of the apple TV? Next question, With the material on the hard drive of the ATV, do I need to have my MacBook open for syncing. What is happening is after I sync, and close my MacBook, when I go to my movies, ATV tell me I have no movies. Once I open the MacBook and go to Itunes, it syncs up again and my movies are there. Am I wrong in thinking once I have synced and the movies, music, photos should be ready to pull without my MacBook on or open.
    If I take my MacBook to work, and my wife wants to watch something, how do I keep everything loaded on the ATV hard drive.
    Any help is appricated, Thanks

    It sounds like you have your ATV set to "stream" from you Macbook instead of sync. Check the settings (On the ATV) and make sure (If the Macbook is synced, it will show a chainlink icon.).
    Once you have the ATV synced, your music, movies etc. are saved on its harddrive. Thereafter, the Macbook only needs to be on when you want to add new material.
