If you can't chat, check the iChat version first

Finally after dozens of hours fiddling with firewall & airport settings, reconfiguring my ADSL modem (including having to borrow a PC laptop), scouring the forums, learning Ralph Johns's pages off by heart, establishing jabber accounts, etc, etc, I discovered the problem: for some unknown reason iChat had never been updated by Software Update and was still on 3.0. A quick download and install of the 10.4.3 update combo and all was solved.
If by any chance some other poor sufferer has been victim of the same anomaly, please let me know - it would be some compensation.
Apple - please make **** sure in future that updates can't be confused...

Hi Andrew,
The problem I have had with SIP and port 5060 is that I had a small group of people that I could get to when it was still bound and a a similar sized group of intermittent contacts and a larger group that I could not contact at all.
ibosie on another dicussion board help me find the then 4.2.3 firmware that gave me UPnP AND the instructions for unbinding SIP from port 5060. I did not use UPnP at that stage because I was the only computer using the modem. The Unbinding of Port 5060 ws the key.
I have seen posts here where people with a small number of succesful Buddies have been using iChat 2. in Panther then found they can not get iChat to work until they have done the unbinding when they upgrade to Tiger and iChat 3
IF he does not do the unbinding it is likely he will have some successful contacts and some that are not.
Yes UPnP should work ...it does on mine... If all the other things are sorted.
At no point have Defcom and I suggested that he change from using UPnP. What we have said is that this modem is SIP aware (which is an Internet protocol standard on port 5060) and that it will need SIP to be unbound for the greatest succsss.

How can i buy songs off itunes that you can't get on the Canadian version but you can in the u.k. version

How can i buy songs off itunes that you can't get on the Canadian version but you can in the u.k. version
I would really like to get these songs (not illegally like most people) because i really like them but they are only in the U.K. or Irish version of iTunes and I'm on the Canadian version
If anyone can tell me how i could possibly get these that would be great thanks

OS X is the same no matter where you buy it. You can switch it to Japanese or one of 30 other languages in few seconds via the system preferences.
If you want a Japanese keyboard as well, you can select that when you configure your purchase:

You can no longer change the password

Good day!
I have a problem on a Netweaver 2004s BI server.
When a user tries to change his password at the logon screen, the error message : "You can no longer change the password" appears.
To clarify, user types his current user id and password in the logon screen, then clicks the "New Pasword" button. Then immediately the "You can no longer change the password" appears.
This is not similar to the message that says you can only change your password once per day.
Any help would be much appreciated!
Regards
Derik

Ah.. that was interesting.. actually you wouldn't know about these errors which do not give u a clue.. in the right direction unless you have faced the problem. Good that the problem is resolved.
Its more quicker to actually help, if you have access to the system.
This error could have been easily sorted out by checking system log entry and audit logs or SUIM.

Why can I not check the 'shuffle images' box in a slide show settings in iPhoto 9.6?

Why can I not check the 'Shuffle images' box in settings of a slide show in iPhoto 9.6? All other settings I can check but this one.

Hey Brad,
If you are unable to select the shuffle images checkbox, follow the steps in this article -
iPhoto '11: Change slideshow settings
Specifically -
To display slides in random order, select “Shuffle slide order.” If you don’t see this option, play the slideshow, move the pointer to make the slideshow controls appear, and then click the Settings button.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Be well,

I have MAC OSX 10.5.8 and need to install adobe illustrator. I checked the compatibility and found that CS5 will work.Can any one help where i can find it. The trail version is fine with me as i just have to use it for couple of days till i get my mac book back from service. Can any one help me on this.

You are welcome, ameronweb.
To elaborate a bit, you may come across offers of a new/unopened/unregistered version, which is the simplest case (you would need a guarantee). Other cases require much detailed information (and a guarantee).
If upgrading to 10.6.8 or higher is an option, you could use CS6.

I just downloaded itunes, and when i go to music there are two options. You can either go to the itunes store or scan for media, and when I click on scan for media it does nothing. Help?

I just downloaded itunes, and when i go to music there are two options. You can either go to the itunes store or scan for media, and when I click on scan for media it does nothing. Help? (I tried deleting itunes and re-installing it but apparently itunes was still on my computer so it asked me if I wanted to just check and see if there were any issues or missing software, so I did that but i still had the same problem.)

Hi jbserious,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
It doesn't sound like the iTunes software and its components installed completely. The article below will walk you through some troubleshooting steps. Is this your first time using iTunes, or do you have an iTunes library from another computer that you want to move to this one?

Is there a way that you can share and update the ical between two iPhones 4s?

Is there a way that you can share and update the ICal on different Iphone 4S?

I did that. It looks like everything I want to apply to the iphone from my computer looks good. When I perform an actual sync, what is on my iphone and what I have checked off on the computer are not the same.

I just bought a ipod touch. I am unable to use it because itunes tells me I have no internet connection (unknown error 306). I have tried all the suggestions I can find, including checking the firewall, the no proxy server is checked, resetting cache on itunes, I even scanned the computer with Registry Easy but nothing worked. I use Mozilla Firefox and have a PC with Windows 7. Obviously, buying a ipod and being unable to use it for 3 days (and counting) because I am unable to register it, is pretty frustrating. Can anyone help?

Did you try all of this:
iTunes Store loads partially or returns "Error 306" or "Error 10054"
Proxies, parental control settings and software, security or filtering software, or a bad iTunes Store cache can cause this.
To address proxies, Remove Internet Options proxy settings and connect to the Internet without a proxy.
To reset iTunes Store cache:
In iTunes, choose iTunes > Preferences (Mac) or Edit > Preferences (PC).
Click the Advanced tab.
Click the "Reset cache" button.
Click OK and see if the issue is resolved.
Adjust Parental Controls in iTunes:
Open iTunes.
Access iTunes preferences:
On a Mac: From the iTunes menu, choose Preferences.
On a Windows PC: From the Edit menu, choose Preferences.
Click the Parental Controls tab.
Remove restrictions on Parental Controls.
For more information on parental controls or content filtering software, see iTunes 10.5 for Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store.
For more information on other security software, see iTunes: Troubleshooting security software issues.

I can´t set the control panel iCloud. PC writes this: you can not connect because the server error occurred. What´s matters?

I can´t set the control panel iCloud. PC writes this: you can not connect because the server error occurred. What´s matters?

Whenever I log into icloud.com
Using what version of which browser?
iCloud.com requires Safari 6 or later, Firefox 22 or later, or Google Chrome 28 or later. Have you tried all of those?
If you have, have you tried clearing your browser cache and cookies?
For the first tine since 1989 I'm thinking about buying a PC.
You'd have exactly the same problems on an 8 year old PC too. It's a bit unreasonable to expect such an old Mac to continue to be compatible as software is constantly updated.
Saying that, I'm still able to access iCloud.com successfully in Safari v5.0.6 on a PowerPC Mac running Mac OS X 10.5.8, so the problem you're having is likely to be a browser issue, not something inherently wrong with the computer.
Since all this crap started, Mail won't download my Mac.com or me.com email.
The iCloud.com website is totally unconnected to Mail's ability to download email via IMAP. Have you checked the mail server settings are correctly setup and up-to-date?

Hi
I've a big problem with adobe acrobat reader XI pro and I hope you can help me.
The problem is; when I past copied text from some pdf books (not all of them) it past symbols only! wherever I past it! and even if I coped that text from another pdf reader (adobe pdf reader, internet browsers, ...etc.).
This problem started to happen since yesterday when I installed adobe acrobat reader XI pro to try it before I buy it, and before that when I was using the free adobe pdf reader I was totally able to copy any text from any pdf and past it anywhere with nothing wrong.
What can I do?
thank you a lot.

There is no product called Adobe Acrobat Reader Pro. There is
- Adobe Acrobat Pro ($$)
- Adobe Reader (free)
Which do you have? And are you a programmer?

This installation package could net be opened verify thatthe package exist and that you can access for contact the application vendor to verify this is a valid windows installer package

If you are not already doing so, install from an Administrator account.
If you haven't already done so, download the iTunes Installer from:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Then right click on the installer and select "Run as Administrator." (Even though you are using an admin account).
If that doesn't work, try creating a new administrator account and installing from there.

If you can't chat, check the iChat version first
