I Can Video Chat but I Cannot see Buddy But I Can Hear Them, What Do I Do ?

I Can Connect with Video Chat but I Cannot see Buddy But I Can Hear Them, What Do I Do ?
kiChat ref (please)
For iChat 3 and iChat and iChat Sharing (iChat 4) Forums
This is for Mac users who are at either 10.4.11 or 10.5.6 and have Perian 1.1.3 Installed
It does not seem PCC or Intel Specific.
As Noted in the Question, the user can make a successful Video chat connection albeit without incoming Video being shown.
The Connection Doctor from iChat Video menu says there is a incoming feed.
Testing and work by Defcom proved this to be the Installation of Perian 1.1.3 from http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/video/perian_christopherforsythe.html
Perian 1.1.3 (a Quicktime add-on that uses a System Preferences like Flip4Mac) causes problems in both iChat versions when the OS is at either 10.4.11 or 10.5.6
This includes deliberate installs and automatic updates by the Preferences Panel (In System Preferences)
The Solution
Download and downgrade to Perian 1.1.2 and turn Off Auto Updates in the Preferences Panel
Process
Use the Un-install check box in the Perian Preference Pane panel.
Download the .dmg from this link WARNING THIS IS A DIRECT DOWNLOAD LINK http://perian.cachefly.net/Perian_1.1.2.dmg
Install Perian 1.1.2
Go to the System Preference > Perian pane and disable Automatic Updates
Happy Chatting

  • I can video chat with John, John with Mike, but not Mike with me?

    My brother lives in Abu Dhabi and he and I can video chat. He can also video chat with my dad (Mike) who lives about 500 yards from me (in North London). But I can't video chat with my dad, nor can we audio chat!
    We've both attempted to initiate the chat and get the error code "-8", upon clicking 'accept' the other party gets a message that the invite has been refused.
    Can anyone offer any suggestions as to how I can go about getting this resolved? I'd like to get to the stage when all three of us can video chat at once.
    Thanks for any advice.

    Hi
    First have you all set the Quicktime streaming setting, goto sys prefs/quicktime/streaming/streaming speed, set to 1.5mbps
    In ichats prefs click on video and change bandwidth limit to none.
    Restart iChat.
    And also 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.

  • IChat4 each client can video chat with test accounts but not each other

    Thanks

    Ok,
    In the Netopia turn the Firewall to Off as the settings LOw and above have some of the features I was talking about (DOS and SPI protection and Ping Blocking.)
    For the TZ-180 I can only find info on the TZ -170
    This site tells you how to do Port Forwarding.
    The main point off linking you to it is it also tells you the default Access Info.
    It is likely to be the same for this device your Buddy has.
    I would not do the Port Forwarding straight away.
    I would check the menu items to see if it has UPnP and that it is Enabled rather than Port Forwarding.
    I would also check for the features or the wording of any firewall before resorting to setting the Port Forwarding.
    I notice that the TZ-1 70 pics that site has also shows that that particular device has a VoIP setting.
    IF the 180 has this we will need to know what it says and what the wording is and if the service is used.

  • While back i purchased some music videos , i see them on my purchases but i cannot see the full videos why??? only like 30seconds

    Hello, while back I purchased some music videos , I see them on my purchases but I cannot see the full videos why??? only like 30seconds.

    You have just experienced what Apple and ITunes is
    designed to do. Prevent you from sharing purchased
    music from ITunes. That's the way it is suppose to
    work. Now, do your purchased songs play using ITunes.
    Play them, see if you get any warning. Next reload
    the songs again on your IPOD. Before disconnecting,
    locate the songs on your IPOD using ITunes and
    attempt to play them. Do they play. If they do you
    can properly disconnect your IPOD.
    Yes, they do play in iTunes. (And just in case you don't know, I am on my home computer where I originally set up my iPod.) When I hook up my iPod to my computer the songs are there on my ipod, while veiwing it on iTunes, and they play, they just won't play on my iPod. And no, I don;t get an authorization window that pops up when I play the song/video, they play automatically

  • I have iCloud successfully set up my Mac and iPhone   iPad. Mac will not transfer to my other devices. Other devices transfer successfully. I have checked my iCloud setting on my Mac, but cannot see a problem. Can you help me?

    I have iCloud successfully set up my Mac and iPhone   iPad. Mac will not transfer to my other devices. Other devices transfer successfully. I have checked my iCloud setting on my Mac, but cannot see a problem. Can you help me?

    If you have iTunes 11 on your computer then you can enable the left-hand sidebar on it via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC - when connected (and if your computer's iTunes is up-to-date) your iPad should then appear on that sidebar under a 'Devices' heading :
    If you select the iPad on that sidebar you can then use the Movies tab on the right-hand side of the iTunes screen to select and sync that film to your iPad's Videos app.
    Has your iPad been synced to the computer before ? If not then you might find this page for syncing to a new computer useful : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

  • Video Conferencing Program cannot see myself but the other party

    I have made a video confrencing a program. I am now able to see the other party doing the conferencing but I cannot see myself on my screen. Can anyone help?

    If you meets that any other one can't see themself just like you.
    I think It's becaouse you use the datasourse for your transfer to another.
    you shold find of the sample of JMF solution as the clone datasourse sample.
    and you can play your own capture and transfer at the same time.
    or if just you can't see yourself and other party cannot see you. You should check the hardware by JMF Registry.
    Hope this help...

    turn your ipad off by holding the sleep wake button for 5 seconds and slide to turn off then turn it back on and the apps should be finished and if the apps didnt finish just redownload them

  • I switched from an iPhone to a Galaxy s4.  Everything seems ok except text messaging with people who have an iPhone.  I can send them a text, they can see it, but I cannot see what they text back.  What can I do please?

    I just switched from an iPhone to a Galaxy 4S and I like it except for text messaging.  I can text, they can see it, but I cannot see their response if they are using an iPhone.  Can you help me with this?  What do I do please?

        Congratulations on your new phone kathdogg! Now let's get your messaging working correctly. If you still have your old device, turn it on, go to settings, and turn off iMessaging.
    If you are no longer in possession of your old device, you will need to remove your phone number from your Apple Support Profile. This can be done here: http://bit.ly/1cst2SC 
    Please keep us posted, and let us know if this resolves your issue!

  • My iPad screen has gone black.  I have tried resetting it with the sleep and home buttons and it only flashes the apple on the screen for a nano second and then it goes black again.  I can even hear notifications arriving, but I cannot see anything...

    My iPad screen has gone black.  I have tried resetting it with the sleep and home buttons and it only flashes the apple on the screen for a nano second and then it goes black again.  I can even hear notifications arriving, but I cannot see anything...I'd rather not reset it to the factory settings as I have a lot of things I worry about using.  Either way seems to me that the system itself is working since I can hear it working, but its the screen that isn't.  It has not been dropped and has been in a case for years!  Please help!

    When the power is on and I press the home button, I can slide my finger where the slider bar "would be" and it makes the noise as if its "opening" flashes a blue screen then returns black...

  • TS2972 I can get my music, movies and tv shows to play through my apple tv, but I cannot see my photo stream on my apple tv.  What can I do to get my photos to show up on the TV?

    I can get my music, movies and tv shows to play through my apple tv, but I cannot see my photo stream on my apple tv.  What can I do to get my photos to show up on the TV?
    I have a mac and wireless internet.

    Because you've got music and movies streaming to your Apple TV, I know you've authorized Home Sharing under the file menu of iTunes.  But under that same iTunes file menu you must also go to the "Home Sharing" pull-down and select "Choose Photos to Share With Apple TV". You can select All photos, or just specific albums. Maybe worth saying again that this is done from iTunes and not iPhoto.
    If you've already done this and still no photos on AppleTV, check to see that your photo file names (previously imported into iPhoto) have valid suffixes (such as photo.jpg).  Without that valid suffix, iPhoto on your Mac will show the photo just fine (courtesy of the hidden Type Code embedded in the photo file), but AppleTV will not.
    Good luck and let me know if either of these worked.

  • Hello! I have configured my Wireless network to support bonjour protocol. When I support mDNS in the same Vlan I can see the Apple TV with my iPhone, but I cannot see it with my iPad.

    Hello! I have configured my Wireless network to support bonjour protocol. When I support mDNS in the same Vlan I can see the Apple TV with my iPhone, but I cannot see it with my iPad. Someone know if there is any different in the Bonjour protocol between the iPhone and the iPad???
    It is like if the iPad changes the process at some point...
    Thank you!

    You don't need to configure anything specific for it to work unless you had some special filtering in place already.
    What do you mean specificly by can not "see" it with your iPad?
