IChat only works one way for me

Hello,
I have an IMac running on OS X10.4.11 with IChat 3.1.8 (445). My son has a new MacBook running OS X 10.5.1 with IChat 4.0 (601). My son can invite me to video chat from the MacBook and I can accept from the IMAc. Everything is good. However when I initiate the invitation, it doesn't work. His "accept" button is not blue like it should be. I have a .Mac account whereas he is using AIM. we are on each other's buddy list, both active and can see each other's video-ready icon on each other's buddy list. We've both downloaded the latest software. I have set both machine's QuickTime to 1.5mbps. I have set IChat bandwidth on both machines to NONE (no success) and then to 500 for comcast, which is our ISP. I'm stumped. Help!

Hi
In Leopard the Accept Button is not Blue.
Has he got any Firewall set ?
It is likely that he can call out through this but not accept incoming calls.

Lightning Connector Only Works One Way

I have two lightning connector cables, and the new 30 pin to lightning adapter, all direct from Apple.
I've found that if I plug them in one way, my iPhone won't charge, but, if I plug it in the other way, they work.
It'sprobably a software issue, as the pins aren't being reassigned. I found that if I have the plug in, and it's not working, I can restart my iPhone 5, and the cable will begin working for this orientation, but not the other way.
I've seen others mentioning this issue, but haven't found a solution yet. I've tried a hard and soft reset so far, and all that does is set the pins to work for one direction on the cable, not both.

I recently tried resetting all my settings. This did not work either.
The cable may appear to be charging, but no juice is flowing. If I reverse the cable, however, it starts charging.
I can't be the only one with this issue, as it appears to be firmware related. There's a chance it's hardware related, but my iPhone was working fine for weeks, with all cables. Now, all my "reversible" lightning cables only work one way.

I added a contact to my iphone 4s and when I did a sync manually it is not showing up on my MAC in address book - please help....I checked off sync all contacts in iTunes - does it only work one way from computer to phone?

Is it because the new itunes looks different.

Then it should work just the same as on your old computer.

Traffic only allowed one-way for VPN connected computers

Hello,
I currently have an ASA 5505. I have set it up as a remote access SSL VPN. My computers can connect to the VPN just fine. They just can't access the internal LAN (192.168.250.0). They can't ping the inside interface of the ASA, or any of the machines. It seems like all traffic is blocked for them. The strange thing is that when someone is connected to the VPN, I can ping that VPN-connect machine from the ASA and other machines inside the LAN. It seems the traffic only allows one way. I have messed with ACL's with no avail. Any suggestions please?

Hello,
I seem to be having the same kind of issue although I cannot ping from either end.
Ive set up a l2tp/ipsec vpn which I am able to connect to and get ip from my ip pool (radius authentication is working).
I tried running:
access-list NAT_0 permit ip 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0
nat (inside) 0 access-list NAT_0
but i get an error msg saying that the syntax of the nat command is deprecated. Im running ASA version 8.4.
Ive fiddled around abit to find the correct syntax but have been unsuccessfull so far.
Any help would be much appreciated

Google Account BlackBerry Sync only works one way

Hey I just got my BB yesterday... I set up my Google Account on my BB and it downloaded all the data to my device. Then I set up an new Test-Contact and a Test-Appointment (calender) on my BB and it was synced to my google account... everything was fine... After that I set up another Test-Contact and Test-Appointment in my google account to check whether it would be synced to my BB... But that did not work at all... NOTHING WAS SYNCED... I waited for houres but it just would not sync the data to my BB... Same situation if I read or delete an Email in my google account the Email still appears as unread on my BB... But when I read one on my BB it appears as read on my google account... seems like sync is just working one way!
Any ideas?

I'm still new with BB, using it as a loaner phone when my Android got waterlogged. I have the same problem, sort of - in my case, I noticed with Emails that it takes a good amount of time for one read on the BB to show as read in my Gmail. And it's the same the other way except maybe a tad faster.
But I'm not able to sync my google calendar any longer. I read that google was dropping support for BB sync options sometime around 6/1/12, and somewhere in these support forums there's a thread on the topic, stating you can use your BIS account to get them to sync, and in looking for that thread I ran across your post. If I find it, I'll come back and link to that thread.

IP phones only working one way

Sorry, I'm a complete VoIP novice...
We have a bit of a weird problem in that when you dial an extension which is our other office (connected by 2 x 2mpbs MPLSs) the caller can hear the recieving person's voice but the the recieving can't hear the caller. This happens both ways, i.e. when we call them and when they call us. We do have an access-list in place and I have opened up the ports that were logged as being denied when the calls were placed (namely 51000 range) and now nothing is being logged as denied.
Apparently this has worked when initially tested, so I'm not sure what could have changed.
Any ideas? Has anyone come across this before? We are using Avaya phones.
Many thanks,
J2026

Thanks for your response Martin, much appreciated.
1) I have removed all filters and re-tried: same result.
2) Definitely connectivity is OK, OSPF routes in place, lots of traffic passes between the 2 regularly. Verifyied by ping as suggested.
3)This could be an issue...I've looked at the interfaces in question, and some of them have a large amount of drops - input queues leaving from here and output queues from the other offices, e.g.
Output queue: 0/1000/64/1067272 (size/max total/threshold/drops)
However, I have cleared the counters and tried again, with same results, yet no more packets had been dropped.
4) We currently only have 4 IP phones (1 at this site, 3 at other) as we are still setting it up. The problem is with all 4 phones, when going between offices. They work fine within the same office (to IP and standard analogue phones). Also, I can use the IP phone here to dial out to my mobile with no problems (this does not traverse the 2mpbs MPLS).
We will be implementing some QoS queueing tools but I was under the impression that we should be able to get at least some, albeit choppy, audio working. Do you think it's likely/reasonable that this problem won't go away until proper queuing is implemented?
Many thanks for your help.
Regards, J

Audio only works one way

My friend and I tried audio chat today. In the past it worked fine. He has a new Powerbook and I have a G3 iBook, both of us are running Tiger.
He can hear me fine on audio chat but I cannot hear him at all. I have tested my headset and both the audio and mic work fine. He said his mic appears to be working correctly too.
Some additional info:
- he is on an ISDN connection
- I am on a broadband connection
Previously, he was on broadband but has had to switch to ISDN.

Check syst. pref's sounds panel for correct settings and also go to ichat pref's & over to video.
Does it say "Ext. mic/Line in" or does it say, "Sound Input" above the Bandwidth Limit menu?
if you are using a line or ext. mic please change the setting accordingly (namely to "Ext. Mic" if you are using an external source for audio input as indicated above in your post).
Hope this helps but if not then you may have a network port issue. Either way please feel free to post back.

Connection only works one way

I've been using LogMeIn for about 5 years. I renewed my subscription 2 weeks ago and can now only connect to my HOME PC from WORK.I am no longer able to connect to my WORK PC from HOME. Any suggestions ?

I am having the same issue. With both computers in my office I can connect with my school PC to my MacBook, but I cannot connect from my MacBook to my PC. "Could not connect. Check your internet connection" is the error message I get. Fix?

Back Button works one way for execute and another for enter

I created a custom program that includes a selection screen and a detailed list/table output. When a user enters their selection criteria and hits enter (instead of execute) they'll go to the next screen, and when they are ready to back out, it goes back to the selection screen, which is correct. But when a users enters their selection criteria and hits the Execute button, they'll go to the detailed screen and when they press the back button, it backs out of the program completely. I don't understand why their is a difference between the two and how it would affect the back button. Also, I don't know how to get the execute button and the enter key to act the same way. Can any one offer any suggestions?

For the create program the selection screen logic is as follows:

             s_kunnr like kna1-kunnr.

File Sharing on a Network and it only works one way

I recently configured a new wireless network, and want to fileshare between my Mac and old PC. I have followed several tutorials, and I can read/write to the Mac from the PC. However, when I try to connect to the PC from the Mac, it asks for username and password. I type in the only user name and password setup on the PC, and it says I do not have access to that server. Any ideas?

There is a "Server" service, and it is running on the laptop. The file I needed to move was ~150GB - wifi would be faster than OneDrive. You can appreciate my desire for full gigabit speed :)
I can connect to the laptop from the desktop over wifi. So the functionality of sharing is all there for me. But I am completely unable to set the wired network's location to "Private", which essentially enables Windows Firewall rules under the hood that
block any file sharing connections.
I can manually edit the firewall rules, but these apply only to network location profiles, i.e. "Domain", "Public", "Private", or "All".
I'll post a few screenshots to try and make this more clear.
Here is my wifi connection. Highlighted in red you can see the option to enable file sharing. Prett slick.
Here is a screenshot of my wired connection. As you can see, the option to enable sharing is completely missing.
The only explanation I can come up with for this is that it is an "Unidentified network", however on the other end of the cable is a desktop with the same connection settings running the same OS with the same updates and on that machine the network is set
to "Private" and has file sharing enabled. The option to enable or disable file sharing does not appear on the desktop either. The only difference between the two is that the network was enabled on the desktop prior to updating to Windows 8.1 (from Windows
8), the laptop had Windows 8.1 clean installed.

Scolling on wireless mouse. only works one way

from time to time, my mouse will not scroll up, but will continue to scroll down. This is when i use firefox (as my main browser). In the past, I'd oddly open up safari and scroll and problem solved. but not now.. not sure if its a hardware or software issue. I have gone into settings for mouse and reset as well..

It's possible that the scroll ball just needs cleaning. Take a look here:

My applications always quit...iChat only works for 4 minutes at a time HELP

ok so i bought leopard today
i installed it but i skipped that step when leopard checks the volume of your comp or whateever (not sure if that will affect what im about to say)
now i have leopard...i love it but my applications just KEEP quitting out and my iChat only works for 4 minutes and then my friends stop recieving my messages
should i uninstall and re install?? how would i go about doing that??
anything just please help

One possibility is that your hard drive is failing. If you don't have backups of any data you don't want to lose, that needs to be your number one priority. Get that data backed up. Once you have done that, you can start exploring options.
Open Disk Utility, select your hard drive and take a look at the SMART status:
If it says anything other than Verified, the drive is definitely failing. If it says Verified, all that means is that it isn't failing in a way that the drive can detect.

What are the limitations of AMS5 only allowing one-way broadcast for the video capture support?

I am interested in a tool that can access a clients webcam and begin recording from their device. When the time is up, it should store that recorded video to a server. Then, of course, the files can be accessed. Streaming is of less significance than simply capturing and accessing video from a client
Can I do this with only Adobe Media Server Standard Edition?
Bearing in mind, I may need to be capturing video from multiple clients at one time. Is this limited by the fact that Standard only allows "one-way broadcasts?"
Thanks,
Carl

Thanks for the suggestions. I've tried using DVCPRO HD in the past, but the picture quality of the captured screen footage turns out blurry. The only codecs I've found that provide a perfectly clear image are H264, Animation and Uncompressed 8-bit. The problem with the latter two is that video files lasting only a few seconds measure in the 100s of MBs. Working with files that large would slow my editing and rendering down to a non-workable length.
I just don't understand why I can't edit H264 video if my sequence codec is set to H264. The 'Codec error' I get is baffling.

Active Syn works one way only with calendar

I need some help. I have a Treo755P with Sprint and I remotely syn my email, contacts, and calendar with my office Exchange Server. Everything works great except my Outlook calendar only syns "one way!" Input into my Outlook Calendar syns with my Treo755 Calendar, HOWEVER, input into my Outlook Calendar DOES NOT syns back to my Treo755. By the way everything else syns fine both ways!!! I have checked with our Exchange Server Administrator and everything is going on fine from there end, so it seems to be in the phone. I just discoved this issue but it appears by my Outlook Calendar that it has been going on a few months. Please help.
Post relates to: Treo 755p (Sprint)

Hello and thank you for using the Palm Help Forums!
One thing you can try is delete the server sync profile and then recreate it. Make sure you have all the server information needed before doing this. I'll continue researching this issue for other means of resolution.

Screen will only flip one way

I need help!!!
My screen will only flip one way and when I flip it the other way it will not flip. Can anyone help with the this? I tried googling the problem, but didn't come up with a solution. I made sure that my screen isn't locked as well.
Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sherri

Hi Ralph,
When you have ticked the screen sharing option in iChat>video>screen sharing and your buddy "high lights" (one click) your screen name the screen sharing icon will be displayed in black on his end indicating "enabled".
This way he can ask for your permission to share your screen.
When your contact has not ticked the screen sharing option the screen sharing icon in your contact list will be grey.
When your contact has ticked the screen sharing option as well the screen sharing icon in your contact list will be black as well.
Of course all other requirements for iChat screen sharing have to be met.
More important: I wish you a very happy new year!

IChat only works one way for me
