HT3672 Theater Preview in FCP 7 not opening ICHAT dialog window

Hi All,
Got a wierd bug it seems..  I have a NY office running multiple mac pro's and macbook pros.  I am trying to use the one way chat with the theater preview in FCP. 
ON MAC PRO: (6.7 / FCP 7.03 / ICHAT 5.03)
    1. log into Ichat
    2. I open a FCP project and choose view - ichat theater - start sharing
NOTE:
on my laptop: i SEE  the Ichat Dialog box that says - Ichat theater is ready to begin
on my mac pro: I DO NOT SEE or EVER GET this dialog box.
I have tested and can do a straight chat so i believe it is something in FCP.
Thoughts?

Hi,
Some questions remain the same.
Can that Mac Pro do iChat Theatre with other files ?
I test my Messages in Lion to iChat 5 in Snow Leopard using Bonjour
In Messages you just drag the File you want to the Video Chat window and use the Lower part of the then divided screen,
I do not have FCP but a Movie tends to start automatically  (no indication what is playing it)
A Keynote file opened the Keynote app and a separate preview window does open with Controls. It still tends to proceed automatically.
There seemed to be some adjustment to keep to the older 4:3 ration of iChat Chat windows despite my current Messages being able to do 16:9 ratio Chats.
Is the laptop essentially in 4:3 ratio ?
IS the Mac Pro Screen and camera able to do 16:9 ?
What ratio is the FCP file in ?
Essentially it should letter box 16:9 shown/used on a 4:3 Chat.
I would note though that the Preview window that appears is linked to the Keynote app  rather than the iChat/Messages app.
There also appears to be no control over the size or position (other than you can drag it about).
Check the Window menu of FCP and see if it lists the Preview window
I find Keynote is Open as far as the Preview window is the only Window open for the app.
Have you stayed at OS X 10.6.7 for FCP to work in that version rather than OS X 10.6.8 ? (the Last Update to Snow Leopard - it make no difference to the iChat version)

  • 10.4.6 Preview.app, will not open

    just installed Tiger, now the preview app will not open. Tried many things, new user, disk utility. I don't have much faith in erase and install, and I don't want to loose all my old app's that I don't have installers for. Anyone resolve this issue?
    Thanks-
    macbookpro   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Well - you could try re-installing it
    Download Pacifist
    http://www.charlessoft.com/
    Open it and then put your 10.4 disc in the drive - select 'Open Mac OS X Install Packages' [wait a bit] - then 'Find' "Preview.app" - select the top one from the list in the panel that pops out and then click 'Install' at the top left and it will hopefully install it in the right place.
    You could then re-install the 10.4.6 combo

  • The old FCP not opening thing

    I am again faced with FCP not opening. I did have it working earlier today but the cable connecting my external HD popped out of the USB socket. Since that its refused to open. Ive tried to open without the external HD attached and ive used FCP rescue. In the past a ditch of the plist followed by disk utility{repair disk permissions has seemed to work but this isnt budging. Any ideas out there as to what has become corrupted? i treid also to open resetting the scratch at the prompt, changing them to the hard drive but that didnt work either.

    Thanks for the advice,
    Ive used this drive nearly exclusively on my Mac and only recently started using it as a capture scratch for FCP. Ive used it recently to copy my i tunes folder to another second MAC but its rarely been in a pc and then only for music. I didnt consiously format it for a PC
    The project file in question is on the external (Lacie 250). I can see it all and open it, the icon is on the desktop
    Ill try the Autosave tomorrow,ive tried to open other projects from internal and external locations with no success.
    I captured via firewire from a camera. To get this work done done i was thinking of moving the drive to another Mac but you think the drive is the problem?
    Can the capture scratch from the lacie still be used? I omported files from my external drives FCP capture scratch using iMovie today no problems.
    Hope this helps

  • RW2 preview in finder and "Open file" dialog

    Hello,
    I run into a curiosity with RW2 file format (from LX3 and FZ38). In Finder, RW2 preview is not displayed and only default icon (black icon with text exec in corner). The same RW2 files does have correct preview, when I browse them in "Open file" dialog window (for example Safari > File > Open File...).
    How it is possible the Finder and Open dialog do have different settings? Is it possible to copy these settings?
    Thank You

  • After upgrading to 3.6.12 my browser is not opening pop-up windows and while closing the browser giving a message that some tabs are open and shall the same be closed? I have not encountered this problem with eralier version. Is there any known issues?

    Some of my web pages open a new pop-up window for entering credentilas and display sensitive information. After upgrading t0 3.6.12 i found that firefos is not opening pop-up windows (earlier version allowed). When I close the browser, it gives a quit message saying there are unclosed tabs and windows of firefox. shall they be saved for next time start.
    Also observed that the memory usage (from Task manager)is very high compared to earlier ones and the process is not closed even if I close the browser.

    3.6.13 is also behaving similarly.

  • Why can I not open a new window but I can open new tabs in V3.6.16?

    I am running Firefox 3.6.16 on both my PC and my laptop. The program works fine on my PC, I can open both new windows and new tabs. However, on my laptop I can not open a new window. Tabs open just fine, but when I try to open a new window nothing happens. Also, when I close the program after trying to open a new window the program is still running but I have no Firefox window to work in and therefore have to go through the Task Manager to end the program. And when I re-open it, I get asked if I want to restore the session or start a new session. Is there a way to

  • Spotlight does not open a finder window when i choose Show all in finder menu?

    I have a significant number of files in my Macbook Air. A lot of them are research papers and medical literature.
    About a month ago I updated the operating system from snow Leopard to mountain Lion and I had no reasons to complain except a smaller battery time.
    Since then I installed every OS update.
    After the last update, a few days ago, Spotlight does not open a finder window when i choose Show all in finder menu.
    Spotlight continues to work properly if I write a name or expression in spotlight in a finder window but not in the upper left corner at the menu bar
    As this been described yet?
    Thank you in advance

    I had the same problem yesterday after performing a clean install of Mountain Lion (10.8.2) on my MacBook Pro.
    I resolved the problem by booting from the Mountain Lion Recovery Partition and then running Disk Utilty (Repair) for the primary disk on which Mountain Lion is installed.  It identified (and repaired) many permissions issues...
    When I rebooted following the repair, Spotlight worked again properly -- including the "Show All in Finder" function.

  • Safari 5.1 -- 'Open at Login' not opening a browser window?

    I have Safari set to open at login (right-click Safari in the Dock > Options > Open at Login). When I reach my desktop, the Safari icon in the Dock bounces and the spotlight lights up as expected, but Safari does not open a browser window -- I have to click the Safari icon or click File > New Window to see a window.
    I've used Open at Login with Firefox and Mail and have never experienced this issue; the application window always opens. I've also tried disabling Safari's extensions and resetting Safari's settings (Safari > Reset Safari) with no luck.
    I know I can probably trick Safari by adding a shortcut to my homepage to the Dock and have that open at login, but I would like to resolve this if I can. Any ideas?

    I found this discussion about three or four months ago. I was having the same problem with Safari not opening, along with my other login items.
    The tip posted by Linc on Oct 3, 2011 9:22 AM, resolved the issue.
    Thanks Linc!
    HOWEVER... Today, all of the sudden... Out of out of the blue... I have the same problem, again!?
    I tried removing, then re-adding, the URL file from the log in items, automatic open list.
    It did not work?
    Does anybody have any ideas/solutions regarding this issue? This is becoming VERY aggravating!
