Ichat Video Quality pixelated and very delayed with friend on a Dell

I am on a Imac and have Airport express, but when I chat with my friend on a Dell, my video is pixelated and delayed. I talk with other friends on PC's and the quality is fine.

Add me to this problem. My powerbook G4 (10.4.10) can initiate with a mini G4 with isight (10.5.2) and be perfect in sync with video and audio. But if the mini initiates the chat a very long delay happens between voice and video. I also have an Ibook with 10.4.11 and when chatting with PB G4 are perfect, this applies to an intel imac with 10.5 only, ichat works fine. I think Ichat got affected with 10.5.1 or 10.5.2. I did noticed that if I open QT pro and make a recording(on mini), the actual caption is delayed but play back is ok. I have been playing with the QT preferences but does not seem to work. I saw there is a new update 10.5.3, and it includes so ichats update. Will keep posting. Pedro PS this is all in my home network. TWCNYC with 9600 kbps download and 488 kbps upload.

When I watch YouTube videos on my iPhone 5 it sometimes suddenly drops in quality so much the whole video goes blurry and it's almost impossible to watch anything?? Help also I think it might have to do with my wifi but I'm not sure. Sometimes I also try to skip to sections of a vid and it just lags for ages and nothing happens.

One real instrument track becomes blurry and delayed

Hi,
I recorded two real instrument tracks in GB. I successfully recorded the first track and then the 2nd track, but when I returned to play the first track it sounded blurry and delayed while the 2nd one sounded fine. Why is this?
Thanks

Is there a way to view the musical notation of a recorded instrument track?
no, only MIDI

After rendering the video is blurry and pixelated.

I have 70 + hours invested in this edit. I recently rendered it for the first time and it became blurry and pixellated. I published it to see if it would come out clear but it did not. I found the tab for deteting rendered files and this seemed to help a little. I published that one and it was a little less blurry but still poor quality. How can I get the video back to the pre-render quality. I am using Powerpoint slides saved as jpegs. I did this in another video and the finished video was super clear, however, now after I rendered this one I am unable to get that same quality.

You need to supply more details than you have in order to get to the core of the issue.
What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running? What do your computer resources look like, installed and available RAM, total and free hard drive space, location and free space for the Scratch Disks?
What are the properties of the source media that you are putting on the Timeline?
Based on the properties of your source media, what is the project preset that you or the program are setting in the new project dialog?
Video (video audio compression, frame size, frame rate, interlaced or progressive, file extension, duration, PAL vs NTSC, camera source, etc.)
Photos (how many, what format, what pixel dimensions)
What is your export choice and settings?
Let us start here and then we can decide the troubleshooting strategy.
Thank you.

My Video look blurry and Pixilated in Premiere Elements 10

I am starting to work on a new video using Adobe Premiere Elements 10. I just purchased a new Toshiba Satellite L855 laptop. It has an Intel Core i5-2450M Processor running at 2.5 GHz. I have 6 GB of RAM and over 500 GB of free space. I am running Window 7 with 64-bit operating system. The files I am placing in my video are MP4 Video (.mp4), MPEG Movie Clip (.MOD), and Video file (.wmv). The videos look great when I play them on my computer, but when I import them into Adobe Premier Elements 10, they are blurry and pixilated. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for any help you can give me.

I'm not sure, but I think I know the answer. And, I have a very similar computer.
Is there a red line above the time line? There should be when you are using multiple file types.
When you start a new project you asked for a "project preset". PrE10 uses that to make preview video for the editing process. If there is a mismatch between your preset and the first clip you bring into PrE10, it asks you to change so they match. With three file types, it can only be right for one. When you bring in clips of the other two types, PrE10 has to "preview render" in order make the monitor previews run smoothly. It does not do that automatically. It puts a red line above the clips that need it. Then anytime you press the Enter key, it will stop everything and "preview render" your content. It can take awhile. But, after that, your preview should look better.
You didn't say what the target output will be. When you work through to the Share menu and select what you are going to make, PrE10 goes to work doing a "final render". That's because what is needed for a Blu-Ray is different than for a DVD or posting to YouTube is different than making video for a website. The "final render" starts all over and uses you project as markers and paths to your original clips. It goes though frame by frame and makes new frames using the "final render" settings. And, it can take its time doing it!
Unless you buy a super computer, you may have to put up with a little less than perfect in the preview window. The real test is how the final output looks on the device you want to use as a viewer.

IPod video fuzzy/blurry and juddrey when played back on video editors

i have recorded many videos on my ipod before but the most recent videos have become fuzzy/blurry when i have uploaded them onto video editors i have tried many different editors but all of them made the video qulity poor, fuzy and juddery. when i play them back on my ipod or PC there absolutly fine but as soon as they are in a video editor the become fuzzy.

(PAL would be less than 768x576 pixels)
BUT...why do commercial DVDs (i.e. the ones I rent from Blockbuster) look ok on my laptop? Do they use better compression or something?
A little "better compression" and a lot of "something".
Yes, commercial DVDs are produced by better compressors, but the primary reason for better quality is better original content. Commercial DVDs aren't shot with consumer DV camcorders, while they are shot using a tripod and carefully lit.
MPG-2 works by looking at image frame to image frame variations - things like camera shake and noise due to poor lighting can cause major frame to frame differences in the video stream causing MPG-2 artifacts.
In addition, the commercial content is just a lot sharper to start with - better lenses, 3 chip cameras with more pixels than DV camcorders, as well as no compression of the shot footage (DV stream content is compressed about 4:1).
It the old computer saying: GIGO
Garbage In - Garbage Out
Now I'm confused! If a monitor has more pixels shouldn't it give a better picture?
Only if your source image has the same number of pixels. Your DVD only has (PAL) 768x576 pixels and if you 'blow them up' to something like 1280x1024 (or larger) on your computer monitor the image with 768x576 pixels will look very soft.

New to imac and iphoto - photo attachment in hotmail

we're new imac users. always used a pc in the past. have a kodak digital camera and used kodak easyshare software to manage photo files. now that we have an imac, we'd like to use iphoto but have encountered a problem. our e-mail is via hotmail and we'd like to keep it that way. with hotmail and easyshare, we always attached the photos as "pictures" rather than attaching "files" as it appears we're required to do with iphoto. the problem is that when attaching the "files", we've been unable to reduce the kb's of our photos so if we send 20 photos at once, it can overload an e-mailbox. Does anyone know how to attach individual "pictures" in hotmail and reduce the kb's of these pictures to a reasonable size for e-mailing.
imac

Create an "emailing folder" and File/Export the desired photos to that folder. When you get the export menu, you want to reduce the photo size by "Scale images no larger than..." but you may need to experiment to determine actual file size in KB. In any event, after exporting, exit iPhoto and do a normal email attach from that folder. When finished, trash the files in that folder.

Pictures App and Large Photos / Large Photo Directories

A problem I've run into from time to time... I have an SLR camera that shoots 18 megapixels. So yes I have some rather large jpg files. Anywhere between 5-9 megs a peice...
I shot my family Christmas and wanted to throw the whole directory onto my Playbook to pass around the following day. However, after transferring the folder, it did not show on the Playbook.
After running them all through a resize tool, the folder shows up...
Is there a maximum image size on the Playbook? Anyone know what the threshold is? Is there somewhere I can report this to be fixed?

The Pictures app builds a thumbnail catalog in the background. It may wait for the thumbnails to be completed before showing the album.
Files & Folders has a thumbnail- & slideshow view which uses the EXIF thumbnails that your camera already embeds in the photo, so that may be a bit quicker. Take the trial version for a spin.
Still, the file- and memory management of a tablet isn't really optimized for this kind of use. Better to split your huge folder into a few smaller ones.

Why are incoming MMS pictures blurry and pixelated?

This isn't a problem that I used to have on my old GS3. I was able to send and receive MMS pictures with no problems. However I now have a new Moto X (2014) and all the MMS pics I get are very poor quality and grainy. It makes reading any text in the pic/screenshot almost impossible to read at times.
Everything that I've been able to find indicates that it's an issue with MMS being automatically downgraded, but I don't buy that because, as I mentioned earlier, this was not a problem on my old phone. I have tried various messaging apps (Google Messenger, Google hangouts, the Verizon messaging app) and they all have the same problem. My wife has the same issue with her Moto X (2014). Similarly, she did not have this issue on her old phone which was some older Samsung with a slide out keyboard.
I'm really hoping someone can tell me how to fix this so I can again receive MMS in proper quality.
And no, sending the pictures via email, social media, etc. is not a "fix". This is something that used to work and now doesn't. I shouldn't have to force my friend to send me a picture through some other means when texting used to work just fine in the past.
I should also add that my friend receives my pictures clearly with no quality issues. I am not sure if that is because he has a different carrier (AT&T) or because he has an iPhone. My wife on Verizon with a Moto X (2014) receives blurry MMS from me.
Here are some examples of the bad quality (all sent from my friend with an iPhone on AT&T):

Here is an example from a friend using an LG G3:

Here is a screenshot of the image quality when my iPhone friend sent me a message in GroupMe:
http://i.imgur.com/5swTCuj.png
As you can see, the image quality is A LOT better when sent through GroupMe.

Sorry for taking so long to respond, I was having issues accessing this account again.
This happens with every single picture that I've received on my new phone, even when I send myself a picture.
When I got my new phone, my old texts had been transferred from my old Samsung Galaxy S3 to my new Moto X 2014. I went back and found a text from September 28, which was the last day I had my old phone (I upgraded September 29th). All pictures pre Sept. 29 were perfectly clear. All texts post Sept. 29 are blurry. Here are examples of similar pictures sent to me both before and after the upgrade.

IChat video conference corporate firewall help please!

Hi Folks,
I'm trying to get an iChat video conference going, and I keep getting the pesky Error -8 problem. Here's the info i have:
- My computer is an intel iMac. The other computer is an intel MacBook Pro, both have all software updates installed and built-in iSight cameras.
- I am behind a corporate firewall. The other computer is not, but is on a very speedy internet connection.
- Both mac firewalls are completely off.
- I had corporate IT disable the firewall on the IP address of this computer (not even just the proper ports, but entirely disable it), and it's still giving me connection errors.
Anybody got any idea what the heck I can do to get these computers to play nice?
Thanks!
Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Hi loudguitars,
Welcome to the Apple Discussions
I apologise for any delay in getting to you.
iChat requires that ports are open in a modem or any interveening router. This is in addition to any Firewall the device may have.
These same ports need opening in any router or modem.
In addition to this the System Preferences > Quicktime > Streaming tab speed setting neds to match your download speed or a max of 1.5Mb/T1/Intranet/LAN if you are faster.
This will sometimes return error 8 although error 22 is more likely.
Error 8 effectively tells you that the connection can not be made because the ports are not open.
This in itself can be because of NAT problems.
IF you have a Router and a separate moem that both use NAT (Port Forwarding, Port Triggering or DMZ) in combo at your end or yor Buddy does there will be problems. The Log tells you little as to which problem it actually is.
If your ISP offers a VoIP service it may block port 5060 until you pay for their service. (Many ISPs believe only Internet phone services use this protocol).
In further addition if you and your Buddy have not Used NAT more than once at your respective ens it can be that if you are both still using a method that involves NAT that the two devices still don't "Play Nicely" due to the fact there are about 6 different ways of doing NAT and you may have two device that just don't get on.
If you have UPnP then use that.
Note: If the ISP NATs the service to you (normally with NON static, DHCP issued IP addresses) then this will count as One NAT at your end.
Apple did change iChat to version 3.1.5 with the 10.4.7 update. It was supposed to help in this area but I would say they moved in the wrong direction.
If you have a modem that has QUality of Service (QoS) or Denial of Service Attack protection and the settings for this are something you can alter then consider increasing that size of the amount of data that can get through as this can impinge of iChat due to the amount of data in a Video conference.

How can I edit and delete photos from my albums? I can't find a way to delete old photos...

Can anyone help me delete photos? There are old blurry and duplicate photos that we are unable to delete...

If photos were synced from your computer then they can't be deleted directly on the iPad, you will need to remove/de-select them from where you synced it from on your computer and re-sync.

Have them install Quicktime on their PC's from Apple's website, that's the easiest fix.
