I want to video chat with people on Facebook or MSN who are not using an apple device.

I Have been trying to video chat with friends and family using my ipad 3 but they do not have apple devices.
WHat does anyone suggest for an app to link to my Facebook and/ or msn account in order to be able to video chat with them?

It sounds like Skype would do well.  It has no direct connection to Facebook or MSN, but that's OK ... as long as they use Skype as well.
Skype is now a Microsoft product, so it's related to MSN in some sense.

    Can you help please?

    Thanks King_Penguin for taking time to read and reply. 
    I just purchased this movie on Thursday, May 15, so just a few days ago.  I have never had any trouble whatsoever since I have been in Vietnam.  I have downloaded several movies and even music and they have all synced to my respected Apple products except for this purchase. 
    Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean by studios and different versions.  Could you please explain? 
    I checked my purchased list in my purchase history under my account and there are no hidden items. 

  • I cant have a video chat with people without macs?! why?

    i can have a video chat with anyone with a mac, but weneveri try to conenct to anyone else with a web cam it says there is a conenction problem. whats wrong? the version of i chat that i have is ichat av 3.1.8. please help! what do i do?

    The problem is that there is no standard for audio/video that everyone uses.
    Each IM provider has decided to use their own method of doing it, and they're all incompatible with each other.
    It's possible to use iChat on Mac OS X to do an audio/video chat with someone using Windows, but only if that person is using the AIM protocol in either the AIM client or Trillian Pro.
    The method that is generally recommended here for cross-platform audio/video chat is Skype. I don't like recommending them because of their misleading practices, closed proprietary protocols, and the fact that they treat Mac users as second-class citizens (and Linux users even worse), but for the moment they are probably your best bet.
    WWDC is in a month, so after that we'll know whether Apple has added additional protocols or changed their methods for doing audio/video in Leopard's version of iChat. Personally i'm hoping for full support for both Jingle and SIP (open) standards, which will allow communication with Google Talk users on Windows and VoIP (soft)phones on every platform.

  • How can I do video chat with my PC friends on MSN messenger?

    Well I posted this in the iChat area, but theres almost no traffic there, hoping for a better response here
    I just got my iMac today and was hoping to do some video chats with family members. I can't figure out how to video chat with them since MSN messenger is not Mac compatable. Does anyone know of a program I can use on my Mac to video chat with MSN messenger users?
    *I was able to use aMSN for video, but there was NO sound so that basically defeated the purpose...

    Hi
    Have just replied to your iChat post:
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=4577049#4577049 where I've posted a link to Mercury Messenger, that might work.

  • I want to video-chat with friends who are using MSN on PC

    The lastest version of MSN for Mac doesn't support video chat. Is there a way around this problem?
    Is there a compatible app for the Mac that will allow me to chat to my friends on MSN Messenger?
    Any advice appreciated. Thanks

    Hi
    Try Mercury mercury.to/">http://www.mercury.to/
    Or aMSN amsn.sourceforge.net/">http://amsn.sourceforge.net/
    Both do video but no audio.
    If you want video and audio try looking at Skype.

  • Please Help? Trouble Connecting Video Chat with People with AOL messenger

    Hey All,
    I got the following message when trying to connect to people using AOL messenger:
    There was a communications error during your chat, iChat encountered errors while communicating with participants in this chat
    I am using G5 (latest version) and iChat latest version. What is wrong> Please can someone help at all?

    Power Mac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    Hi Gary:
    Using the latest version of AIM won't work. The PC user MUST be using AIM 5.9 or before or Trillian.
    Have you tried connected to the PC AIM Bot listed here: http://www.ralphjohnsuk.dsl.pipex.com/ContactTesters.html (It's my PC auto responder). If you can connect, then it's probably the windows user configuration with the firewall that is preventing you from connecting.

  • "Your Mac OS X start up disk has no more space available for application memory. To avoid problems with your computer, quit any applications you are not using. Closing windows and removing files from your start up disk will also help -  ????

    I am still having trouble with my iMac since I last spoke with you guys about 2 weeks ago. Sorry to take so long to get back to you (things were a little wonky around here). Anyway, I did try running in Safe Mode, as Bob suggested but I continued to have the same problems. Strangely, the original message did not reappear, and has not popped up since the first time I wrote about it. However, the computer is still showing all the same problems. It is running slow, stalling in the middle of games, Youtube etc. I'm getting really sick of seeing that spinning color wheel every time I turn it on. Any advice you can give will be greatly appreciated & thank you all for all the tips and advice with my first posting.

    Freeing Up Space on The Hard Drive
      1. See Lion/Mountain Lion's Storage Display.
      2. You can remove data from your Home folder except for the /Home/Library/ folder.
      3. Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on freeing up space on your hard drive.
      4. Also see Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk.
      5. See Where did my Disk Space go?.
      6. See The Storage Display.
    You must Empty the Trash in order to recover the space they occupied on the hard drive.
    You should consider replacing the drive with a larger one. Check out OWC for drives, tutorials, and toolkits.
    Try using OmniDiskSweeper 1.8 or GrandPerspective to search your drive for large files and where they are located.

  • Can i video chat with only email?

    Im new to skype so need help..lol...im wanting to video chat with my daughter..she has an ipad but no mobole number..are we able to video chat using email only? Thanks

    regarding video, yes you can do a video chat with another pc user. the pc side has to right click your name and find the "view video" (using yahoo mesenger and built in cam)
    have not use audio though so i can not assure you that it would work. (but most probably it would)
    as to using external cam and mic, you can try to borrow someone else cam or go to a mac store and ask for a demo
    as to microsoft outlook... there is no mac version of microsoft outlook as far as i know. (correct me if im wrong) how ever you can use bootcamp and have windows installed and use your mac as if your using windows

  • Who can you video chat with?

    who can you video chat with? is it only for other users of a mac computer? .. or can anyone with a webcam have chats with you via iChat AV? Someone please explain how you add people into a video chat. Thanks, its much appreciated,
    Andrew

    If there is a camera displayed next to your friend in the contact list you can invite your friend by clicking on that camera icon. You need to use iChat for video chats with more than one friend the same time. (friends using iChat can invite you to a multi person video chat and add others if the iChat user initiates the video chat)
    Windows users need AIM 6, the iChat application only runs on Mac OSX.

  • IChat can't video chat with AIM user

    My mother in law has switched from PC to iMac, and wants to video chat with her grandchildren. They are on a PC, and have installed AIM 5.9. Can IM fine, but as soon as we try to hook up a video chat, it fails to connect, saying:
    There was a communication error during your chat. iChat encountered errors while communicating with participants in this chat. You can send details etc etc...
    Firewall is off in OSX
    Any ideas?

    Hi
    See for mac and pc setup http://www.mvldesign.com/videoconferencetutorial.html
    If your tring to video with PC then you might be better off using Skype to do video between Mac and PC.

  • Can't start One-Way Video Chat with some Buddies

    I have a MacBook running the latest version of iChat AV 3 (3.1.5 v440).
    I just held a video chat with my father. He's also using the latest version of iChat.
    Quitting that video chat, I also wanted to video chat with my mother in law. She's also running the latest version of iChat (on her non-intel mac: 3.1.5 v436). However, in my Buddy list, she shows up with a greyed out icon for the multi-chat. My audio and video chat buttons disable when I select her. There is no "Invite to One-Way Video Chat" menu.
    We have both restarted our computers. We're both listed as Buddies of the other. No luck. My father shows in the buddy list as available for video chat, my mother in law does not.
    I've previously been able to video iChat with her. What's going on?

    5 minutes after posting, my wife noticed that one of the other computers in the house (with a different .Mac account on it) was 'ringing'. Apparently my mother-in-law had left an open audio chat invitation to another account, and that was preventing a new chat from starting. Sorry for the noise, hopefully this answer helps someone else.

  • Can you video chat with the ipad in a venue other than face time

    I want to video chat with my moms new iPad but I cant get facetime on my mac... Please help

    Cashintze-
    As Roaminggnome suggests, the iPhone version of Skype works well on the iPad.  It can be expanded to fit the screen, but the picture is slightly sharper at the smaller size.
    I understand there are also video chat Apps from Google and Microsoft.

  • Excessive bandwidth error when trying to video chat with buddy

    I have been unable to video chat with people on my buddylist...when I ask them to join or they ask me to join...my image comes up but soon returns an error box stating "unable to connect due to excessive bandwidth."
    When I use menu item "Connection Doctor" it returns ERROR -22
    Any ideas ?
    Does this have anything to do with OSX10.4.10 upgrade or Safari beta 3.0.2 (522.12) update?

    Hi
    have you set the Quicktime streaming setting, goto sys prefs/quicktime/streaming/streaming speed, set to 1.5mbps(dont use automatic)
    In ichats prefs click on video and change bandwidth limit to NONE.
    Restart iChat.

  • Can I Video Chat with someone who has Gchat?

    I have set up my gmail account in iChat, and am fully able to video chat with people who are also using ichat, but when I try to video chat with people who are using gchat (on PCs) and have video capability. Is there anyway to video chat with them besides opening up my gmail account and chatting through the web browser? I should be able to do it in one program right?

    With Gtalk in iChat its Mac to Mac only for video.
