IChat and google apps accounts for group video chat

Does group video chat in iChat work with Google Apps email accounts added under gtalk?

No.
iChat can Video Chat to iChat users only in Video chats 3 or 4 ways
This can be based on Jabber (Google Facebook Other) Buddy list or from an AIM Login list (AIM, @Mac.com or @Me.com) but you cannot mix and match Buddies from AIM and Jabber.
Not even in 1-1 chats will iChat VIdeo Chat to:-
The GoogleTalk app (Standalone on PCs),
Any Web Browser Login to Google (Mail or iGoogle page) This uses the Google Plug-in for Video chats of which there is a Mac and PC version)
Or any Other Jabber app that would do Jabber Video
Jabber use a Connection Protocol called Jingle.
This is in those Jabber Apps that have it, the Google Standalone app, that the web Browser plugin.
It is not compatible with the SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) that iChat uses.
(in fact the Google Variant of this is not that compatible with other Jabber apps)

Bandwidth for group video chats

Hi everyone
A few things I would like clarified about group video chats before I set one up.
1) Will everyone who joins the chat be able to see each other's videos? Or does only the host have access to see all the videos?
2) How much bandwidth is taken up by a group video chat, and does this affect the host only or all users?
3) What is the maximum number of users allowed on group video chats, including the host? I've seen various figures from 5 to 25.
Thanks, your insight on this is much appreciated!

Group Video Chat

I am yet to find a good tutorial or example code on how to implement a group video chatting application. Is it possible to use RTMFP Groups to launch multiple chat windows without using point-to-point connections? If I'm attempting to use RTMFP Groups then should I use DIRECT_CONNECTIONS or not? I have looked over the Video Phone Sample Application but it is a 2 way communication model and I'm interested in group video chats.
Any help, resources or advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

I would also like to know, how do you get all peerIDs for everyone who is a member of a group. To link up video, do you have to h
ave the explicit peerID of the user from which to pull the camera feed? Is there a way to iterate through all users in a group and pull the camera feed?

Two questions: how do Skype and iChat compare for group video? quality, reliability, cost, etc are important. 2) Is my MobileMe ID what I need to use in the window in making an iChat buddy? It only says AIM above the window, online tutorial differs.

Hi,
IChat uses better Video Compression than Skype does.
On a top flight Mac you can send a 640 X 480 pixel frame up to 30 frames a sec.
Skype can't match this.
iChat in Video is Peer to Peer. (you can actually Log out of the Buddy list)
Skype seems to borrow something from everyone's bandwidth to make connections.
What do you mean by Business account Tracking ?
iChat Adds (or can add) the First Name, Last Name of your Buddies and create an Address Book Entry
Whether you mark those cards connected with a company is up to you.
(I have heard of issues with earlier version of iChat and the Address Book that "saw" the Company Name as the part of the Name and linking several Screen Names to the one name
Audio on a Mac using Skype tend to be the same as the streaming needs are less.
However you have to rely on any PCs audio abilities from PCs which may not be to the same standard.
Mac to PCs in iChat and AIM can be difficult though. (It should work but it rarely as simple as Plug and go)
Skype may suit your needs better on ocassions.

Calendar sync broken for Google Apps accounts

The Calendar no longer syncs with my Google Apps account; not in either direction. It pops up the sync notification and reports success, but nothing changes. I tried removing and adding the account. This actually broke in 1.2.1, but by the time I noticed, I assumed a fix was around the corner. 1.3.1 didn't help. I even created a brand new test account using the newly enhanced support for Google Apps. Mail and contacts work fine, but the calendar won't budge. Palm, I can give you the test account to play with if you'd like.
My standard Gmail account calendar syncs just fine. Saw the troubleshooting for standard account calendars and tried playing with the invitation options in my Apps account to no avail.

#1 is good already. I tried changing the other differences: Default View was month, Location had my zip code, Automatically Add Invitations was set to Yes.
#2 using network settings correctly had me in Central, but it said Regina, Canada. Changed it to Chicago and rebooted, but I'm still not syncing either way on my account nor the test account.
Here's the really odd thing. My Pre has all four of your entires on the test account from the 3rd and 4th. I just tried creating entries for the test account from both my Pre and desktop, and I'm not seeing any syncing. I've forced it about five times over the past 20 minutes.
Sounds like we're down to it either being homebrew's fault or something stuck in my launch day profile that would survive a wipe. I wiped my phone under 1.3.1 to undo a lot of homebrew cruft, but I still can't say I ever tested this in a virgin state. Enh. Go ahead and close the ticket. My workaround is fine with me. Feel free to keep using the test account for other stuff if you want.

I have 3 i-4 phones and one app account. I paid for one game, how do I download it to the other two phone without paying again.

There is no device limit for the number of iPods, iPads, and iPhones that can be synced with the same iTunes library and iTunes account on the same computer. Each device can have its own sync preferences with iTunes along with iTunes creating and maintaining a backup for each device, which is updated by iTunes automatically as the first step during the iTunes sync process.
Since all iTunes content on each iPhone - all music, movies, tv shows, audio and print books, and 3rd party apps should be in your iTunes library on your computer, connect the other two iPhones to iTunes and under the Apps tab for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, select the game to be installed on the iPhone followed by a sync. Repeat for the other iPhone.

Carddav syncing between apple contacts and google apps

I set up carddav syncing between my macbook's contacts app and google apps contact.
Now I got 2 accounts into contacts, a local one ("on my mac") and the google one.
There are 2 contacts groups, for when I open a card contacts tell me the contact is both on my mac and on google contacts.
The strangest thing is that when I set up carddav syncing between contacts and google apps automatically the iCloud contacts sycing got activated.
I try to deactivate it but then it goes on by itslef again.
My questions would be: can I get rid of the local group of contacts, I am not interested into? I just want one group of ontacts, the one which syncs with google apps. As a matter of fact, when viewing a contact with 2 cards, the contacts app merges the two card together and it's a mess, I cannot see modification from the server.
What is the point in having iCloud syncing on? I am not using it at all.
How does the syncing work? Is it sort of push or does it work every certain amount of time?
Thank you.

Try going to Settings>iCloud on your iPad, turn contacts off, choose Delete from My iPad when prompted (any iCloud contacts will still be in iCloud), then turn contacts on again and choose Merge when prompted. Then go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the contacts section) and make sure it's set to your iCloud account. Then add a test contact on your iPad and see if it syncs properly now.

Google Apps account now showing Unknown Error when trying to sign in

This is a post I made over at webosnation.com, but no one knows what's going on over there (but a handful of people are having the same problem).
For some reason my main email account has decided to fly off a cliff on both my FrankenPre2 and my TouchPad. The things I've tried from searching around the net:
-Changing my password
-Making sure the new password does NOT use any special characters
-Removing the account from my Pre and re-adding it
-Disabling multiple sign-on from the Google side (I had it linked to the account I use for Google Voice)
-Removing all patches from my Pre
None of these things have had any effect. When I put a wrong password in it comes back with an invalid password error. The correct password bring back an Unknown Error.
The funny thing is I have a 2nd Google Apps account set up on both devices for work, and that hasn't had any problems. What makes this even weirder is my friend who owns the Google Apps domain I'm on has a TouchPad with his account set up on it and it works fine. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

ITunes Match family account and separate store accounts for kids

Hi there,
I've googled a lot and also read through this support forum, but I'm still not sure whether I can use iTunes Match with my setup or not. My setup is like this:
1) I do have one iTunes account for most of my music ans app puchases
2) My kids are using my iTunes account but they also have their own accounts for their purchases.
3) All those accounts are synced with one iTunes instance on a Mac (thus, if kid A purchases a song kid B is also able to sync the song to its iPod)
All devices are authorized for all accounts, but I want to keep separate accounts for my kids, so I can control their iTunes budget (they only have gift cards, no credit card is associated with their account)
So, as far as I've understood if I enable iTunes Match on my Mac, _all_ songs will be transferred to iCloud - no matter if I have purchased them or my kids. Fine for my iPhone, since the iTunes Match account and my iTunes Store account will be the same and I'm authorized for my kids songs.
But what do I have to expect on my kids iPods?
- Do I have a chance to use the family account for iTunes Match and the kids account for puchases?
- If so, what happens if a song is bought on the iPod with the kids account - does it get matched on iTunes Match with the family account?
- What about apps? I guess this no subject here, since I'm able to specify a different apps store account anyway - right?
Thanks in advance,
Ralph

You're not going to be able to keep the same setup if you want to use iTunes Match across all your iDevices. iTunes Match is associated with one iTunes Store account ID, and since iDevices can only be signed into one iTunes store account ID at a time (and can only switch iDs every 90 days), to be able to use iTM all iDevices will have to be signed into the same iTunes Store account ID that was originally used to purchase iTM. There's really no way around this.

Outlook 2013 with Office 365 and Google Apps Sync.

This is the scenario, hopefully somebody can give me some insight on how to resolve this.
Outlook 2013 with gapps. Both updated.
Outlook profile with an office 365 email account (which is as an exchange account) and google apps with our main account.
We installed an office 365 account since its the only way that several users can share and edit the same contacts on Outlook. They use almost all contact fields.
Gapps its the main email address and calendar. Shared calendars are deeply used too.
The problem is that when I edit a contact (the exchange account) I get an error -when- I edit the email field.
"The operation failed. The messaging interfaces returned an unknown error."
If I make a new Outlook profile with the exchange account and the gapps account via imap setup I get not errors BUT I loose calendars sync.
So I went back to the main profile and thought. <maybe both contacts engines are screwing Outlook.> So, since I don't care about gapps contacts anymore I disabled via:
Disable sync for individual products
https://support.google.com/a/answer/1041455?hl=en
And also disabled the dynamic Global Address (just in case).
But the same happens.
I tried with another box, with office 2010, updated it and made a new profile with the office 365 and gapps and the same history.
Finally I though about setting the office 365 account as imap but contacts are not downloaded.
So I'm between a rock and a hard place here.
I need to use office 365 account in the same profile as gapps account.

Hi,
What’s the file size of your Outlook data file? If your data file is over size, it may cause data file corruption.
Outlook data file corruption may cause this problem. Please try to run a repair of your Outlook data files to check the result:

Will a more powerful processor increase my GMail and Google Apps speed??

Will a more powerful processor increase my GMail and Google Apps speed??

I take it that you know the processor in the iMac G4 is not upgradeable. It's soldered to the logic board. The 20" iMac G4 had the fastest process of any G4 iMac--1.25Ghz-- so you're maxed out there.
Do "About the Mac.." from the the Apple menu to see how much RAM is installed. Sluggishness can be due to too little RAM.
Sluggish performance can be a too full hard drive. Single click your hard drive's icon then do command i to see the values of Capacity, Available, and Used. the space Available should be no less than 10-15 percent of the vaule under Capacity.
For comparison, I have a G4 tower with a single 1.25Ghz processor and the same bus speed and video RAM you have, and it is not at all sluggish with anything other than Office 2008, which is sluggish all by itself. My G4 has 1.75G RAM and a bunch of free space on the hard drive.

IPhone5 Exchange Google Apps Account won't send or receive Email

I've tried everything, had a long chat with apple support, deleted accounts, restored the device. Nothing. I've come to rule out that it's not my Google Apps account configuration since it works quite fine in my iPhone4, iPad and other devices. I'm pretty sure it's an iPhone5 issue.
Anyone having this same problem?
Anyone have a solution?
Thx!!!

One of the other posts said that MS support told them it was a bug with Exchange 2013. So I tried it.
I have split DNS, .local and .com. I probably don't need the hosts entries anymore.
I found out my issue was with the account I was using for mobile Exchange. I tried another test account and it worked but at some point previously both accounts failed.
Anyway, I used the connectivity analyzer with the problem account and it linked me to a post about enabling inheritance on the user account. It was disabled, so I enabled it, it said it was updating a bunch of permissions and then once it finished,
mobile exchange mail started working. The problem account was created before I installed exchange 2013, so maybe that was why it was disabled when all other accounts were enabled?
Anyway to enable the inheritance you go to
AD->User accounts->right-click Properties->Security tab->Advanced->lower left button Enable Inheritance.

Can't add Google Apps account on Nokia Messaging

Like it says in the title.
Thought I'd start a new post when I noticed the previous one was from 2010, and wasn't really solved at all even though it says 'Solved'.
Suggestions please Nokia - this was working until earlier today, but then I updated the mail software on my E5, after which I had to delete all my email accounts and start again (so that it would deal with HTML emails properly), and now I can't add back the Google Apps accounts, either online or on the phone.
Suggestions please Nokia - this really is hopeless - do you do _any_ testing of things like this? God how I wish I'd bought a Blackberry instead of this piece of rubbish - unfortunately it's out of warranty now (I spent a year waiting for you to make it work properly - that's how loyal I _was_ to Nokia) and so now I'm stuck with it.
Answers as fast as possible please!!!
Solved!

Its not working for me
I had updated to Nokia Email Version 3.21 (E72). The push mail was working but the html problem was happening (/t5/Eseries-and-Communicators/No-html-in-Nokia-Email-v-3-21-0/td-p/1192091)
So i removed the mail boxes but now I cannot add them back. After giving the username and password it says verifying and then disconnects and no mailboxes are added. I last tried at 5:19 GMT Monday 31 Oct 2011 (10:49 PM IST Monday 31 Oct 2011) I have 2 factor authentication and have revoked the earlier password and generated a new one.
