In future Iphone4 will support video chatting with other Mobile phone

Hi ,
Whether iphone4 will allow video chatting with other Mobile phones like Nokia,Samsung,etc..,in future kindly clarify

Apple already announced, as an earlier poster stated, that they have made the FaceTime spec/protocol available to anyone who wants to use it. Apple doesn't have to do anything.

Can't Video Chat with other .mac user

Been trying to video chat with a buddy. We both have .mac and AIM accounts. We are able to text when logged into AIM. Attempts to video chat can't connect.
Is this a problem because we are using our AIM accounts?
I'm tried logging in with my .mac account but it always shows I'm off-line in my buddy list. Can't seem to make it go online.
Thoughts?

Hi BlackGuns,
Welcome to the  Discussions
It should not matter if you use an AIM Screen Name or an @mac one.
If you have an @mac one the Password should be 16 characters or less.
When you add a Buddy the top drop down allows you to specify the account name type.
Neither requires that you add a Suffix as the @mac ones are added by iChat.
See here http://www.ralphjohnsuk.dsl.pipex.com/page6.html
Most likely it is spelling or Account type error

Two-way video chat with other (audio-only) participants?

Is it possible to have a five-way chat in iChat with
. - myself and one other participant via video, and
. - three other participants via audio only?
I know there's an option for one-way video conferencing, where only one person in a conference has video and the other(s?) have audio, but what about two with video and the others with audio?
And if we did this, could the three audio participants see the two video participants even if the three don't participate via video?

Hi,
You can start A One Way Video chat with a Buddy without a Camera.
You can add others up to the standard 4 people (you and three others) and some can be audio Only.
You do have to have a Mac of a G4/1Ghz dual or above and have a Upload speed of 256 k at the very Least (Apple Specs say 384k) although more is preferable when you are Host.
Ideally the Host should be the fastest Mac with the fastest connection.
Invite Camera able Buddies first then Audio Only Buddies by clicking on the green A/V icon they are showing in the Buddy list.

Why can't i pair my i-phone 4s with other mobile phones?

Why can't i pair or connect to other mobile phones with my i-phone 4s?

Because that is not a feature of the iPhone.
See the supported Bluetooth profiles here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3647
If you let us know why you want to pair your iPhone with other phones, we can probably suggest alternative methods of doing what you want.

I cant video chat with other ichat users. ! :O

I have a mac mini with snow leopard and my ichat was working since i started using it. Under my green video camera icon there were like 3 or 4 panels or however many there are regularly. Now the only panel is the video camera and i cant vchat with other ichat users. but when i disable the camera all the panels appear. this happened after i had my macbook ichat and mac mini ichat on at the same time.
HELP PLEASEEE!

Hi,
Welcome to the  Discussions
Scenario 1
Next to your Own Buddy icon at the top of the Buddy list your own Video icon should be "Stacked" if you can do Multi-way Video Chats.
As Audio chat take less bandwidth it is implied you can do Multi-way Audio Chats.
If your Icon becomes a single "Flat" one then so will your Buddies as you will only be able to Video Chat to them one at a time.
If you can Multi-way Chat but a Buddy can not (most likely a AIM on PC Buddy) then they will show a "Flat" iCon.
Resized "Flat" pic
Resized "Stacked" pic
Scenario 2
However these icons appear in a group at the bottom of the Buddy List, and are dark like this when a Buddy is highlighted.
From what you posted I am not entirely clear which part you are talking about.
I would rather be clear before we proceed.
Can you start though with a plain Shut down and reboot of the computer and then start up iChat ?
This will get iChat to recheck the Bandwidth (portion of your Internet Connection) it can "See" and it may do better now the other computer is not doing a Video chat.

I can't video chat with other people.

I have a mid-2012 Macbook Pro (w/ out Retina).
So when I can use Messages just fine, and chatting with people and all that, but when I try to video chat other people, the invites don't show up, and I can't send invites either.

Hi
Not enough info.
The iMessages account and any Yahoo Account you have set up will not Video or Audio Only chat.
This means only Buddy Lists logged in to AIM (AIM or Apple Valid IDs as Screen Names) or Jabber Logins (Could include Google talk or Facebook IDs) can Video.
Certain Apple IDs ending in @mac.com, @Me.com and @icloud.com are also valid AIM Screen Names thanks to an agreement Apple and AIM have.
This mean your Apple ID may be used in the iMessages account and be added (Messages menu > Preferences > Accounts > Plus icon lower left) as an AIM account.
This will create a Buddy list although by default they are not on show.
GO to the Window Menu and click on the "Buddies" item (CMD + 1 keystrokes)
This is a combined list of all the Buddy Lists you have logged in to the servers (plus possibly the Bonjour account).
In the general Section of the Preferences is a line about Gathering all Accounts in to one list. Untick this item.
The Buddy list will separate out and the Window Menu will list as many CMD + # as you have Buddy lists (well up to nine)
As you can see I have more than nine Accounts logged in.
My original AIM Name, two Apple ID types based on my iCloud registration (they are in fact the same Apple Account but here they work as separate IDs), Googletalk, a Jabber ID and a Yahoo one at least plus the Bonjour account.
As I said Yahoo does not Video where as an AIM Login does
Showing two accounts/Buddy Lists (no Video icon in the Yahoo one)
If you are in the main Messages window and have started a New Message and either used the blue + icon that shows Up and then the Contacts List or typed a Name in the "To" spot you are most like iMessaging someone (see the text entry field at the Bottom of the window).
The Video icon that shows up top right will invoke FaceTime to Video (Starts up the other app to Video)

Can iChat have video chat with Windows Messenger?

Is there any way to use Jabber or other means to establish a video chat with an MSN Messenger user?
Alternatively, does anyone know if Virtual PC for Mac supports video chat with windows computers?
Thanks for the help.

Hello Peter,
Is there any way to ... establish a video chat with an MSN Messenger user?
The best way is still with a Windows XP PC and MSN Messenger.
For use with your Mac, see the MSN, Yahoo, Win Messengers & iChat? FAQ. Jabber is text only.
There is a beta application called Mercury Messenger on Mac OS X that is an MSN Server client.
However, please note that the Mercury Messenger Webcam / Video Conference Support section, which I quote, in part, includes the following:
Video-conferencing is supported on Mac OS X, however it is receive-only, due to an incomplete JMF library for Mac OS X. The feature is still relatively new, and so some issues may occur in use.
Although Mercury Messenger (beta) will connect to the MSN Server, those comparing it with iChat AV's capability should certainly study the sections about the limitations and known issues.
If you get Mercury Messenger on Mac OS X working, please post back and let us know what you think of it.
... does anyone know if Virtual PC for Mac supports video chat with windows computers?
VPC for Mac does not support Firewire video, so it cannot use an iSight for video. Sorry, but I have not seen anyone post a method of using VPC that rivals the performance of using the same application on a Windows PC.
Also, VPC with the current version of Windows is so expensive that, at least where I live, it is often cheaper to buy a used, and sometimes a new, PC to run your PC software.
If you really MUST use PC software, I suggest running it on a PC.

Can't video chat with Dell PC!

Hi, I have a MacBook with built-in iSight. When I go to video chat with other MacBook users using iChat, everything works out great.
However, I seem to have problems chatting with my friend who uses a Dell notebook. He has a brand new Creative webcam which seems to be working fine, but so far we've only gotten our video chatting between us to work out once... and we're not sure how we did that!
Most of the time this is what happens when he invites me to chat...
1. I can see and hear him
2. He can only hear me but cannot see me!
3. I sometimes get kicked off of iChat with an error message
4. For some reason, nothing at all works when I invite him to chat. But when he invites me, items 1 and 2 above seem to happen.
I'm not a computer expert by any means, but I checked to make sure that i have the camera enabled and the audio enabled on iChat. Is there something else I should do to fix this problem? Is there something he should do on his end?
One other detail that might make a difference... My friend is in a dorm room at school using the school server. I don't know if our video chatting would be blocked somehow by his school. Although, if that is the case, how is he able to hear me? And furthermore, how did we get the video chat to work that one time?
So confused!!!
Thanks in advance for your help, everybody!

Hi kgunter,
Welcome to the Apple Discussions
If you are still willing to try the iChat > AIM chats then try these things:-
1) Go to System Preferences > Quicktime > Sharing tab.
Set the drop speed to 1.5Mbps/T1/LAN
2) He should tune the camera and Mic to the Application if he has not already.
See from message 570 onwards.
3) He and you should check this site out http://www.mvldesign.com/videoconferencetutorial.html

Can't share screen or video chat with AIM

I'm trying to set up screen sharing and video chat with other AIM 'buddies' but the little icons for both remain greyed out when I select the buddy if the buddy is an AIM account. I also have messages configured for my GMail account. When I click on a GMAIL 'buddy' those icons switch from grey to active. So it looks like I can start a screen sharing/video chat session with GMail but not AIM folks. Any thoughts on what could be the problem? I've already deleted all iChat related preferences from my ~/Library/Preferences folder. This system was an upgrade from Lion which had had iMessages beta on it.
Thoughts? Thanks,
-Noah

Hi,
Video Chat requires that you have a enough Internet Speed.
A minimum of 128kbps upload (normally the lower) is required.
However this is the Apple declared minimum and a real world figure of 256kbps is best. (it is several times the fastest possible Dial up speed).
As Screen Sharing in iChat is basically an Audio Chat + then you have to be able to Video Chat (Same min speed requirement) first.
Screen Sharing also requires a random internet port that means using UPnP in your router or Modem to Open ports.
If the icons at the Bottom of the Buddy List are greyed out go to the Video Menu.
Check the Video Chat Enabled is ticked and the same for Screen Sharing.
If they are then open the Connection Doctor from the same Menu and check Capabilities. (report these)
Having said that the Internet Speed you have and the Settings would effect both types of Buddy list.
That leaves the type of Applications the Buddy is using.
Jabber (In this case GoogleTalk ) Buddy lists will not video or Audio chat to people logged in via a Browser or the Google Talk App for PCs or other Non iChat/Messages but Jabber able apps on PCs or Macs (it is only iChat or Messages the Buddy has to have).
An AIM Buddy could be logged in via AIM Express (Access via a Browser)
This would tend to have them Not show the Video or Audio iCons (green ones in the Buddy list) rather than "disable" the Buddy List icons.
Having laid it all out with some suggestions I am now confused.
Go to the General Section of the Messages Preferences an untick the item about gathering all Accounts into one list.
This will create at least two Buddy Lists (Jabber/Google and AIM).
The settings in the Video menu should effect both Buddy lists.
If you toggle Off and On again the Video, Audio and Screen Sharing options does anything change ?
The Messages Beta issue will not be a factor.

Can't video chat with AIM only .mac users like me.

Hi,
I'm running the latest iChat AV.
There seems to be alot of posts regarding people being unable to chat with .mac and only AIm but my problem is exactly the opposite. I can only video chat with other .mac users and not with AIM users. (I am .mac).
Nothing here involves a PC, all accounts are on macs. Any .mac friends I try and video chat to it works great, but any mac AIM users all I kept getting are 'failed to respond' messages. I failed to respond or they did depending on who initiated the video chat. All type chatting works fine. I have no firewalls and plenty of bandwith. To the best of my knowledge the AIM users have no firewalls either. Any ideas?
Thanks.

Hi Rodi,
There has been one report of a .mac user contacting .mac because of this problem. He said he was informed that they were aware of the problem exsiting for some users but that they could not tell which ones.
They did something to his account that made it work (some problem with the .mac user list and the AIM Servers)
I suggest you explore this as well.

Can't video chat with buddy.

I have the most recent version of ichat and snow leopard, and I can't video chat with my Buddy on ichat/AIM. She has a PC (and has a camera) and whenever I try to video chat with her, it says waiting for a response, and then when she accepts it says she canceled the invitation or something else along those lines. When she tries inviting me it tells her that an error has occurred and she should restart AIM.
I tried restarting my ichat, and restarting my macbook, but it still says the same thing. She also has a PC laptop with a built in video camera, and AIM, and it lets me video chat with her on that (she doesn't like using that laptop because it's slow and the camera isn't that good), it also lets me video chat with other mac users. Please help me with this problem!!!!!! I have tried everything, but with no luck. Is it her PC or my mac? PLEASE HEELP!

Hi,
Welcome to the  Discussions
Based on what you have posted it look like her PC.
Has she allowed AIM through the Windows Firewall as an Exception ?
Has she allowed it though her Router or modem ?

Macbook video chat with pc

I have a new macbook laptop I tried to video chat with a pc. can not get voice on one side only text.
called apple teck he said download mircosoft msn app 7.02 did it but having still having problems
apple teck said it's mircosoft problem. It seems that the two systems a fighting each other. If I downloaded vmfusion and run the mircosoft program would it work.

The big question is what software you're trying to use.
There is a myriad of options here - different software from different vendors that enable video chatting. Some are interoperable, others aren't.
Since the Apple tech recommended you download MSN Messenger I'll assume that's what you're using, but you should confirm that.
If you're not using MSN (or, more precisely, if your cohort is not using MSN) then you need to find out what software they're using first (and potentially try some of these as alternatives, anyway). Some possible candidates include:
Skype - http://www.skype.com/
Yahoo messenger - http://messenger.yahoo.com/
AIM - http://www.aim.com/
SightSpeed - http://www.sightspeed.com/ (free and commercial versions available)
plus many others.
Even if you both have compatible software there may be network issues at either end that prevent the video chat from working - firewalls and NAT routers can all get in the way. It would be worth trying different applications to see if one gets through your firewalls better, as well as trying a video chat with others to make sure it's not the specific combination of users/networks that's at fault.

I have an iphone 4s, I installed Vtok but the video chatting part of the app is not working when I try to chat with my husband through gmail on his PC. Can I fix this or is there another app that will let me chat with my gmail chat contacts?

Vtok video chatting is not working on my iphone 4s. When I try to do a video chat with my gmail chat contacts who are using a PC we each only get the voice part of the chat and no video. Is there some way to fix this or is there another program that will let me video chat with my gmail chat contacts? Thank you.

You can not merge accounts.
Apps are tied to the Apple ID used to download them, you can not transfer them.

In future Iphone4 will support video chatting with other Mobile phone
