I can't use the webcam with iChat

Hi all,
The problem is:
I can speak using the video with a person who is in Barcelona but I can't speak with another who's in London. My other partner, whos's in Barcelona, can't speak with him (I'm in Spain too). So the problem it's not from our system, it's from him. What could be the problem?
He's using a broadband Internet conexion and a router. Could be a problem with the ports?
That person who's in London can't speak with other people who's from his country.

Hi Oleguer,
I need this sort of info
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=506836
This list are some of the "normal" devices out there
http://portforward.com/routers.htm
I was wondering if you had a Thomson Alcatel Speedtouch modem/router combined device as theses are fairly popular on the Continent. They are also popular in Australia.
The main problem when one person can not contact anybody is that they have not set up their Mac or their connection devices to alow iChat access to the internet.
The second most common problem is that people use Port Forwrding or other NAT based port openings like DMZ or Port Triggering and there is conflict with the way their Buddies device is doing NAT.

For this reason we suggest using UPnP where possible.
The latest issue is that some newer modem and wireless routers that do MIMO or are called Pre-N devices are not liked by iChat
MIMO stands for Multi In - Multi Out. The device my have more than one ariel to produce better wireless cover
Pre- N are wireless devices attempting to predict the next stage in Wireless protocols. Currently we have 802.11b and 802.11g
He should start here http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=406147
And here http://www.ralphjohnsuk.dsl.pipex.com/page16.html to see if he has set things up and eliminate possible problems (particularly updating from Panther.

  • How can i use the webcam in the VMware fusion?

    I am using Windows XP with VMware fusion in my MacBook( OS X 10.5.1). Everything is good except the webcam. I have no idea how can I use the webcam(built in MacBook). Can someone give me more information about that? Thanks a lot!

    Not sure I quite understood your question? However, I am running Win XP in VMWare Fusion an all the peripherals such as Bluetooth, IR Receiver and the webcam are identified as USB device and are therefore supported. No problem to use it with Messenger, Skype or Trillian. The only thing you have to do is to click on one of the small USB symbols in the lower right corner of the VMWare status line in order to enable it for the use in VMWare. That's it.
    Hope this helps to fix your problem

  • I can't use the webcam

    I've bought my i-mac 1 month ago; at the begenning all was working, but now, i can't use the webcam anymore. It works' (green light on) but the screen stay black with photo booth, skype or other software.I have repared the permissions, downlowed OSX 10.5.1 again, repared the permissions again.
    it doesnot work anymore.
    I have also restarted the SMC
    Thank's

    Welcome to Apple Discussions, jean-louis
    First, disconnect any peripherals, restart your Mac, and test again to see if you might have conflicts with other devices you have added to your system. To simplify troubleshooting, leave all unnecessary peripherals unhooked until you get your iSight working again.
    If the above does not resolve your problem, next try every suggestion re: Built-in iSight in the "How to Troubleshoot iSight" article.
    Be sure to include the checks for whether the problem is "application-specific" and "user-specific".
    If you need help creating a new user account to check whether your problem is "user-specific" during Troubleshooting, see this Help article.
    If iSight works with any app in any use account, iSight is NOT your problem. If this is the case and you post back for other suggestions you can try before you seek professional help from your Apple Service Provider, list which apps work with your iSight and which do not. Also tell us if the problem is EXACTLY the same in EVERYH user account you tried.%ensp;Finally, tell us whether you have added any software to your system since your iSight worked correctly.

  • Can't run the webcam with MAX and LV12

    Hi,
    I would like to configure and run a webcam via Measurement & Automation Explorer and Labview 2012.
    I am working in windows 7 Ultimate (64bits).
    Labview: 2012 (32bits) V 12.0f3
    MAX: V5.3.3f2
    Vision Acquisition Software: 2011
    I installed Labview 2012 without issue. Then i installed Vision Acquisition Sofware 2011 to have the library neccesary for the webcam. But, before the end of the installation. I got this error screen ( see bellow Windows_Firewall_Might_Be_Enabled.jpeg): WARNING: Windows Firewall Might Be Enabled. So, i tried to turn OFF, turn ON my Windows Firewall. I have still had the same error screen even if I tried to reinstall Vision.
    Any ideas about this issue?
    Then I ran Measurement & Automation Explorer, go to Devices and Interfaces and NI-IMAQdx Devices. I can see my webcam ( Logitech HD Webcam C270). Double click on it. And i have the first error screen :cwimaq Errors loading control. The default settings for the control will be used. Then this error message: cwimaq Error creating default control. And i have a Unexpected Error (see picture bellow). I tried couple times to restart the computer. But It is still the same issue. So, I really don't know why it is doing that. Any ideas?
    And when I run Labview and try to go in propreties of Vision Acquisition Express: Labview displayed : Unable to view properties.So I can't use my webcam with Labview for the moment. Furthermore, I downloaded ni_imaq_usb_installer_86 to get the  good library for the usb. 
    Thanks for helping me,
    Best regards,
    Francois

    So, I am thinking this is probably my issue. Because I installed Labview 2012 but my VDM is 2011.
    Anybody has already installed VDM 2011 on Labview 2012, and it is or not working?

  • How do i run an external monitor with my macbook and change settings so that when i close the lid the signal to the monitor is not lost and i can continue using the mac with a mouse and a wireless keyboard?

    No, nothing will prevent the computer from going to sleep when you close its display except third-party hacks that are designed to do exactly that. I strongly advise against using any of those, as they may interfere with successful entry into clamshell mode (and they carry other downside risks as well). Just wait until the computer is asleep (with its sleep light pulsing), then press any key on the keyboard. It sounds as though your setup is working as it's designed to do.

  • How can I use the DBAdapter with SequencingPollingStrategy in OSB Cluster?

    Hi!
    I have a OSB cluster. I need to read a view with the DBAdapter. I use SequencingPollingStrategy to implement the adapter.
    Then I import it into OSB and make it work and the service works normally in the single node.
    But if I import it into OSB cluster, the service always read the duplication records from the view.(the Distrbute polling is not worked in SequencingPollingStrategy )
    So how can I use the DBAdapter with SequencingPollingStrategy in OSB Cluster?
    Thank you!

    Nope. Version 5 is a fashion accessory: it looks like software, but it doesn;t actually do anything. Sort of like a sports car with a lawn-mower engine. Looks snzzy. Doesn't really work. (And given how buggy it is, I should further specifiy that the lawn-mower engine comes with a blade: it chews up your old templates, produces files that cannot be sent as email attahcments [yes, really], and—this just in—doesn;t play well with the new SMB facility of Mavericks. In short, as one reviewer put it, "un unmitigated disaster."

  • I want to cut out a head from a photo and insert it into another photo again. In the head hair flying in the wind and the blue sky can be seen between the hairs. This blue sky I want to remove, so I can only use the head with hair flying in another photo.

This blue sky I want to remove, so I can only use the head with hair flying in another photo. Is it possible to simply delete this blue color of the sky?

    Make your selection and then use Refine Edge.

    Can I use the ipad with 3G in egypt if i bought it from the us

    You will need to get a local micro-sim, but yes you should be able to. 3G iPads bought in the US are not locked to a carrier, but in order to use a local micro-sim you'll need the AT&T version if buying from the US - the Verizon iPads are CDMA based and don't use sim cards (so are effectively locked to Verizon)

    I am not familiar with any "TableScrollPane" classes. Can you clarify
    whether this is some 3rd party custom component, or something you have

    Note that we do not provide any pre-build graphical data components with

  • After I updated iOS 5 can´t use the "open with" for mail attachments.

    After I updated iOS 5 on my iPad 2, I can not use the "open with" for mail attachments. The option is not appearing.
    For example, when I try to open an .wmv attachment the iOS 5 doesn´t show "open with". Before update, I was able to open with "AZUL" software.
    Can anyone help me?

    You did say that the option does not appear at all in mail no matter which file type you want to open correct? I can only assume that something went corrupt in the update that affected your settings and that's why this option no longer appears. For experimental purposes, you could try emailing a PDF to yourself and see if that will allow you to use the Open in function in the mail app.
    If nobody else jumps into this discussion with a different idea, then maybe you should try restoring your iPad. The best way to do so is - first backup the device - and then restore to factory settings and then you can try restoring from a backup at the end of the process.
    However, if one of your settings is corrupt, the backup will be corrupt as well. It may be that you will have to restore to factory settings and then start all over again - adding your apps and content back to the device to get the best results. I would certainly use this process as a last resort. Restoring from a backup maybe all that you need to do.

  • I want to buy an iphone 5s (GSM, SIM-Free). While I travelling to India, can I use the iphone with a local-SIM in INDIA.

    I want to buy an iphone 5s (GSM, SIM-Free).
    While I travelling to India, can I use the iphone with a local-SIM in INDIA.

    I am looking into buying an iphone 5s (GSM, SIM-Free) from apple store in US.
    While in India, I am looking to use it with a local-SIM (Local carrier) in INDIA (Eg: Airtel, Vodaphone etc). Will it work ?
    While browsing iphone products in the Apple store, I did not find any iphone referring to "Unlocked" but ended up with SIM-free as the only option (http://store.apple.com/us/buy-iphone/iphone5s/64gb-gold-unlocked?aid=www-k2-ipho ne%205s%20-%20index-n@p&cp=k2-iphone%205…).
    I also found the following information from the apple store - When you travel internationally, you can use a nano-SIM card for iPhone 5s from a local GSM carrier. The unlocked iPhone 5s model is A1533 (GSM).
    If Apple is the only source of unlocked iphones, could someone provide the link to the store.
