IChat Signs off of AIM all the time.

I am constantly getting kicked off of AIM through iChat. I have tried downloading AIM for mac through their site and with there software I still get kicked off constantly. My roommate has the same MacBook as I do and he never gets kicked off AIM through either application. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the software, I still get disconnected. Anyone know why this is happening and how to fix it?
thank you,
Vito

Hi,
Ok Software Updates are only the bits that are different between the last update and the one you are doing (referred to as Deltas).
Now if you have to do a Reinstall back to your Install Disks then You get offered a Combo install to take you straight to the latest level.
You can also get them without using Software Update from the Apple Downloads page.
Reinstalling iChat from the Install Disks takes you back to the level that Install disk was. Possibly are far back as 10.4.0 at the start of Tiger.
All but tow of the iChat updates have been in the OS updates so your iChat could be out of step so to speak.
See list here http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/
Get the Combo for your type of Mac.
In the Case of an Intel that is the Combo 10.4.10v1 which includes the Audio correction.

Try the remaining items of:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I can't sign in to wifi all the time I need to sign in manually

after I update my Iphone 4 to 5.1.1 I can't connect to the wifi automatically. All the time when I turn off the wifi from the phone I need to type the wifi code again.

Go to Settings > Wi-fi > click the blue arrow next to the network > tap "Forget this network"
then go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings.
Power off your phone and back on.
Attempt to connect to the wireless network again, enter your inforamtion in and see if it prompts again in the near future.
if so then
Reset, restore, Service.

My ipod touch turns off and on all the time i cant charge it because after about 2 minutes it turns off PLEASE HELP!

MY Ipod touch frequently turns on and off please help!!!

Try connecting the iPod to its syncing computer and restoring the iPod.
If you can't restore, see if resetting the iPod will allow a restore:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that was unsuccessfulm see if placing the iPod in recovery mode will allow a restore. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

How do i get ichat to stop showing up all the time

i am about to freak out. i was on photo booth and i pressed i chat. now it keeps showing up on my screen.how do i get rid of of?

Hi,
It sounds like you have got iChat set up in System Preference > Accounts > Login items (in your account)
Items in this List will start up when the Computer Starts Up.
On my Snow Leopard Computer (OS 10.6.8) In Photo Booth there is an iChat icon
This is supposed to put the pic you have selected in Photo Booth to be the iChat Buddy Pic
If you press this it will launch iChat and you have to "Set" or Cancel the Pic selection.
If you choose "Set" the Photo Booth Pic or Video becomes the Buddy Pic (The Video is converted to an Animated .gif)

My 2nd generation iPod touch keeps shutting off and I would need to restart all the time. Can apple still do anything about it even though it's a very old iPod touch?

Hi,
I've had my iPod touch for a really long time and it recently starts to shut off or freezes all the time. There is always batteries in it and I am getting annoyed by restarting it all the time. Is there any way to fix this and will apple do anything about it because it is a old generation iPod touch. Thanks!

Have you tried restoring to Factory Default (setup as new).

Photoshop quits all the time

Photoshop quits all the time! and downloading images off firefox - quits all the time! Anything using images - Quits all the time! Snow Leopard - I'd like to quit and go backwards!

David AC Holmes wrote:
I'd like to quit and go backwards!
Here is how I would proceed to go back to Leo. I would start by bootably cloning your Sno install on an external drive. The clone will be your backup, your migration medium, and your fail-safe device. You also could continue to experiment with this install and try to fix its problems.
After doing so, install Leo on your internal drive via erase and install. You will need your original Leo install DVD to do so. After installing, you can restore all your data from the clone at the end of your Leo install. Under the circumstances, I would not restore your users, settings, and apps from the clone. Note that your choice will be to restore all apps or none. Be very careful about trying to just copy apps. You cannot copy many apps successfully from one install to another. Reinstalling almost all apps is my recommendation.
You can use the same user name, password, and other such install-related data as currently is used on you Sno install if you want. If you connect to the internet via Ethernet, then leave your Ethernet cable attached during your install. But, disconnect all unnecessary peripherals during the install being prepared to plug in your cloned external at the end of the install--when your will asked if you want to restore from various sources. As mentioned, you would restore from your clone.
Here are the basic erase and intall procedures.
1. Erase and install using your install Leo DVD. To do so, start up from your install DVD; choose your language; use the menus at the top of the next screen to start Disk Utility; use Disk Utility to erase our drive Mac extended (journaled); quit Disk Utility; and continue your installation.
2. At the end of your install restore your data files from the clone.
3. Reinstall your apps by hand, including the iLife and iWork apps from your applications DVD.
4. Repair permissions when you have completed all installations.

I frequently use Lightroom 3.6 for tethered capture on location. If I sign up for Adobe cloud and upgrade to Lightroom 5, do I have to be online all the time to use it? In other words, can I still use the program off-line?

I frequently use Lightroom 3.6 for tethered capture on location. If I sign up for Adobe cloud and upgrade to Lightroom 5, do I have to be online all the time to use it? In other words, can I still use the program off-line?

Yes.
The only difference is the installation method and the ownership verification. The program still is installed on and runs from your local machine. You only have to hook up to the internet every 60-90 days to verify ownership.
From the FAQ
Do I need to be online to access my desktop apps?
No, the desktop applications in Creative Cloud, such as Photoshop and Illustrator, are installed directly on your computer, so you don’t need an ongoing Internet connection to use them.
An Internet connection is required the first time you install and license your apps, but you can use the apps in offline mode with a valid software license. The desktop apps will attempt to validate your software licenses every 30 days.
Annual members can use the apps for up to 99 days in offline mode. Month-to-month members can use the software for up to 30 days in offline mode."

Ichat doesn't log all the time/poor camera connectivity

My ichat doesn't always log on. Sometimes it will after using the computer for thirty minutes or so and sometimes not at all(same is true with AIM). However, my firefox and safari both work all the time so it's not an internet connection problem. I'm using an ethernet cable for service. I was wondering if there's a setting or something I need to change...
Also when it does finally connect my isight camera (external) does not always connect to talk with other people. It has worked before rarely but when it's connected the image is extremely choppy and blurry; however, the sound is usually pretty clear and fluid. How can I fix this?
Thanks.

Hi
For your logging on problem
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.
For your blurry problem
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.

Sign in all the time now

Why with the new update of iTunes to 12.0.1 do i have to sign in all the time? Before it would stay on my IMac until I decided to logout. Now every time i shut down the mac it is always asking for my password is there anyway to turn this feature on or off? It's annoying because I am the only one using this computer and one who hates to sign in all the time and I never signed out. It very frustrating to me that they are making us sign in all the time now when before it was only if we signed out. Anyone knows how to fix this problem? I have my password in the in my preference in my privacy section in safari and shows me my password but does not put it into sign in screen for iTunes. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you all for your help.
ps. I am using the new Yosemite software 10.10

Nobody can tell you anything without proper system info or other technical details.

My iPhone 3GS keeps turning itself off all the time for no reason every time I put it on silent or just get a Facebook message I have a broken sleep/power button anyone know how to fix this problem?

My iPhone 3GS keeps turning itself off all the time the power/sleep button dosent work so it's quiet annoying having to plug it in all the time dose anyone have a fix for this?

The "fix" is to get the phone repaired. There's no magic solution for a broken phone.
Bring your phone ant $149 to Apple for an out of warranty replacement, or find a 3rd party repair shop near you.
