IChat times out when video connecting

I'm running a mac mini with iSight cam with iChat 2.1 on panther... My problem is when I invite people to video chat they get the invite and accept but iChat says the user didnt respond... This doesn't happen with everyone, some of my friends I can video chat with and certain ones it never works with...
I have my firewall on with the ports 5060-5190-5297-5298-5678 add for iChat as per Apples site...
I've even tried turning the firewall off with no luck either..
Any ideas??
Thanks
Terry

Hi,
They should look like the example in this FAQ under Format.
If you post a message back here replace the names and numbers with xxx as shown in the same places.
There are some WEstels on this page http://portforward.com/routers.htm wich will take you to instructions with pic for Port Forwarding.

  • Ichat times out when trying to sign in

    I am in Europe for the year and haven't been able to get my ichat to sign on in my new apartment. I am not good with computers and do not know where to begin with trouble shooting this problem. I have done a lot of reading on sign in problems, but I don't know enough about my internet/computer configuration to make changes. iChat does work when I try to sign on at a different location (university), so I don't think the problem is with the program itself.
    This is what I know:
    I am using built-in Ethernet TCP/IP that I have configured manually. Other than iChat (or my apple mail which also times out before succesfully signing in), my internet works without problems. Following iChat help, I tried to ports on my firewall, but the firewall wasn't activated.
    Any help you can give me is most appreciated. This is really driving me crazy.
    Thanks!

    Hi!
    Thank you so much for your help! Changing the port on iChat did the trick. Perhaps that is the problem that is happening with my mail as well. You don't happen to have another suggestion about which port I should use to correct that problem, do you? Thanks again for the help, it is much appreciated!
    Best!

    I am using itunes 10.5. Update didnt work on last software but restore did work. Help

    After two days of attempts, Google & Apple searches, one Apple post stated to turn off all firewalls and virus software and keep trying since there were 6 gazillion people trying to update.  I have Windows 7 & Kaspersky and had to diable every single safety feature in Kaspersky as well as Firewalls and it finally allowed the download and update attempt. 
    Glancing at the forum, there appears to be numerous other problems with missing pictures, text problems etc after the IOS5 download but fortuneately, everything seems ok so far.  Good luck, it is frustrating!  Hattie47

  • Why does my network connection time out when downloading iphone 4 software update?

    Why does my network connection time out when trying to download iphone4 software update?

    I'm having the same problem too. I cannot sync or update over wireless or wired connections ever since I installed the most recent iTunes update. iTunes goes through the complete OS 5.0.1 download only to tell me the connection has timed out just when it seems ready to install. I've since reinstalled iTunes, I've ejected and done hard restarts on both my problem devices. I've disabled anti-virus, anti-malware, and firewall. No change in outcome except that, after doing all this, my final attempt to simply sync my 1st Gen iPad led to iTunes crashing and being automatically closed by windows just before finishing the final step. Is this a cruel joke, because I'm certain I can hear iTunes laughing at me for wasting so much time on this.

  • Time outs when redirected from RDS CB to RDSH

    Hi,
    I'm troubleshooting connectivity for the following setup:
    1x RD Gateway server
    1x RD Connection Broker Server also License server
    1x RD Web server
    1x RDSH server with multiple RemoteApps
    Gateway is configured to allow bypass for local connections.  Certificate has the correct name and is successfully installed. Certificate is from an internet CA.
    When users come in over the internet RemoteApps launch pretty quickly every time.  When users connect over the LAN RemoteApps launch successfully but much slower.  When users connect over some VPN connections the connection times out when launching
    a RemoteApp.
    Over VPN I can see a successfull CAP and RAP in the Gateway Event log.  I can also see a successful connection and successful redirection from the gateway to the connection broker over HTTP.  In the SessionBroker log I can see a successful connection, but
    then when the redirect to RDSH is attempted event 819 occurs "This connection request has timed out. User could not log on to the end point within the alloted time. Remote Desktop Connection Broker will stop monitoring this connection request."
    When you connect over the LAN it takes longer but successfully redirects, and when connecting over the internet (non VPN) it connects quickly and successfully.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks
    Tim

    Hi Tim,
    What’s your server and client version you are using?
    Please uncheck the option “Bypass RD Gateway for local address” for gateway setting and verify whether there is any improvement in connections. Also as you have commented that you are receiving time out when you use VPN connection, please see whether there
    is any blockage from firewall side for not allowing VPN connection to make the connections. 
    This might also occur due to antivirus or other 3rd party related software. Because as you can connect directly from internet without any issue but there is some problem with internal LAN and VPN connection, So seems issue with internal firewall\antivirus.
    Please check whether it is not blocked or any policy applied for not allowing connection. 
    Hope it helps!
    Thanks.

  • System is showing time out when run in background

    Dear all,
    We have two systems: One R/3 and EBP. We have made one report where the remote function module will be called from R/3 to EBP. There are 4 lakhs data in SAP. We are sending 10000 data as package in internal table and getting the corresponding output. But the system is showing time out when the report has run in background. Can you please suggest how the process can be improved so that the timeout can be avoided.
    Thanks and regards,
    Atanu

    Hi,
    Try to fetch records in smaller chunks and process them.  For example, if you are trying to fetch records for one year, instead of single query, try to fetch in 12 sets for each month.  Fetch first month and process the records and put them in the output internal table.  Then go for next month and so on.  Anyway your program is running in background.  There will not be any user complaint also.  The solution might sound bit funny.  But it works.
    Regards,

  • Time out when seinding Idocs from XI to receiving system

    Hi All,
    we have implemented a file to Idoc scenario in our XI test environment.
    When sending more than one file at a time (containing one record -> 1 Idoc after conversion) XI creates the Idocs but gets a time out when passing the Idocs to the receiving SAP 4.6C system. We find the messages blocked in transaction SM58 with the status message "Transaction recorded" and on the XI system short dumps are created with the time out error message.
    Does anyone know this problem and can give us some hints how to resolve it ?
    Thanks in advance,
    Christiane

    Christiane,
    Check your partner profiles in the target R/3 system. Use Tcode WE20 and check the inbound parameters option to see if the radio button 'Process Immediately' is switched on. If yes, change this to 'Process by background program'.
    This way, the IDOC will be created in your system with status 64. You can then use program RBDAPP01 in the R/3 system to post these IDOCs to application.
    The reason I say this is, sometimes, posting applicaitons may take a long time thereby resulting in timeout. If this is not the actual reason, atleast this will lead you to the correct problem.
    Try this and let me know what's happening.

  • I am using iMac OS 10.7.2 with Garageband'11 6.0.4. I can't record sound from  mixer Behringer X1622USB using USB out. when I connect the mixer to iMac via USB  appears USB Audio CODEC on Sound and preferences but no sound from mixer to iMac. Need help.

    I am using iMac OS 10.7.2 with Garageband'11 6.0.4. I can't record sound from  mixer Behringer X1622USB using USB out. when I connect the mixer to iMac via USB  appears USB Audio CODEC on Sound and Preferences but I can't get no sound from mixer to iMac only sound from iMac to mixer. I only can record sound using microphone line in. Please help.

    Eric,
    Thanks for your reply. Realtek audio works only in playback. There is a stereo mix in the mixer but the recording controls are not operable with no sliders in the mixer for any recording option. Slider controls appear to be grayed out. Can't figure out how to enable them. Downloaded newest drivers to no avail.
    The M Audio control panel has no apparent option for recording stereo mix. Adobe ignores the sound from the DVD or CD and shows flatline.
    I'm trying to record the sound from the DVD not rip the track.
    When I go to Audio Driver Setup and select Audition 3.0 windows sound, there is no input device installed.
    I'm thinking of going back to a decent internal Soundblaster card like I have on my 8 year old machine I am replacing.

  • For some time now, when I connect my iPod to my PC, I'm told my iPod cannot be synced to iTunes because (the file cannot be found).  What gives?

    For some time now, when I connect my iPod to my PC, I'm told my iPod cannot be synced to iTunes because (the file cannot be found).  What gives?

    Sounds like the file yo are trying to sync to the iPod is corrupted.
    Try syncing only one item that plays in iTunes on the computer.
    Also see the following since when you downgrade iTunes you have to reset your iTunes library since the older version can't read the updated version of the library.

  • Safari times out when uploading. Is there a fix?

    I'm a fan of the Safari webbrowser, BUT, for years it has pained me that it times out when uploading multiple images. I have scowered the internet in hopes to find a solution, but I find only third party plugins that don't look like they are from reliable sources.
    Chrome and Firefox can sit there and upload for any period, but Safari just stopps after 10-20 images, sometimes less. It seems more time dependant than anything else.
    I worked for tech support for a big company. We used to get loads of calls about this and we were instructed to tell people to use Chrome or Firefox.
    Why has it been so many years without a native fix? Has anyone else experienced this? Does anyone have a simple fix or a plugin from a reliable source?
    Many thanks,
    Tom

    Hi Carolyn,
    Thanks for your reply. My upload speed is 0.85Mbps.
    I'm sure this is not the issue however as it has been the same since I lived in Sweden with 100/100Mbps. When I worked at my old job with over 2 million customers uploading across Australia I would just have to advise all mac users to use another webbrowser because of this issue.
    Kind Regards,
    Tom

  • I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes multiple times.  When I connect my iPod Classic I get the following message:  The software for this iPod is not installed correctly.  Please reinstall iTunes to install the required software.  Any ideas?

    I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes multiple times.  When I connect my iPod Classic I get the following message:  The software for this iPod is not installed correctly.  Please reinstall iTunes to install the required software.  Any ideas?

    Assuming you have windows, try uninstalling iTunes and all of its components as by following this guide exactly: Windows XP or Windows Vista/7, then reinstall iTunes.  You must follow this guide exactly or it will not be successful.  Note: uninstalling iTunes will only remove the application; it will not touch your iTunes library or data.

  • HT4972 iTunes times out when trying to download iOS 5.1

    iTunes times out when trying to download iOS 5.1 - can anyone help? Can I download via a browser and then install that way?
    Looking here http://osxdaily.com/2012/03/07/ios-5-1-download/ - I can download an ipsw file - how would I get that to install on my iPhone4?
    Help!
    Cheers
    P.S. My iPhone4 is on Orange UK - is this a GSM one? or CDMA???

    Hi,
    Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    Now restart your iPad.  Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    If that didn't help, you need to post in the iPad forum here.
