ISight camera/iChat not working HELP! Also, how can I get PhotoBooth?

Hi,
A friend and I are tring to use iChatAV but it just does not seem to work.. I can see my picture and the mike on the camera works on my machine but neither of us can see or hear each other.
Text chat works fine.
We are both running wireless routers but our MAC are hard wired to the machines NIC so wireless is not a factor here. I am using a Linksys WRT54GS... I also have the firewall in OSX turned on. Are there ports I need to open to get this to work? If so how?
Also I bought the iSight camera and just assumed that Photobooth would come with it... It doesn't seem to have been included. My buddy sent me version 1 but I am not sure if it's compatible with the Intel MacPro... how do I get it?
Any ideas?

Hi
Goto the linksys setup page and then goto the Adminstration option you should find UPnP which you should turn on.
Restart ichat.
You have a Macbook Pro which should have a built in iSight and photobooth should be in you application's folder.

I've been charged for a service which did not work properly. How can I get reimbursed?

I have downloaded a new apps "old faces..magic". The first time I used it it was working well. But yesterday I tried 5 times could not get the final results but I was still charged on my several trial (5x CHF 2.-). How can I get reimbursed?

Could have been a number accessed from a sky box or free view box. Pressing the red button can instigated a charged call. Do that a few times on xfactor or strictly and the cost soon builds up.

Installed "NEW" Flashplayer 11 SIX times...still does not work...HOW can I get this to work???

First...I am NOT a developer...Just a "regular" user who is now fed up that once again, a new Adobe product has been released with bugs, so now I can no longer see whast I need to on my laptop.
Here's what I do know:
IE 9
Windows 7 - Home Version
64 bit platform
Tried to install your latest version of Flash Player six times...all of these times I received a confirmation that it was successfully completed. NONE of those time did it work (tried YouTube, and your own site...nada). I used the troubleshooting tips for Windows 7 and IE9...did not work. And now I can't find a way to reinstall the old program that at least worked! I need to be able to use this functionality to work today...what do I do?????

Hello!
I own a small company and we are having the same problems.
IE9 is not working with the latest flash update infact the update has messed up flash complety for all sites once installed. I went to YouTube eariler and it warned that I needed to install to the new Flash Player upon instaling and returning to YouTube it had the same message. This led us to download both the x86 and x64 versions and useing the uninstaller went through each one and tried the updates. None of the downloadable updates from Adobes site works. I have also loaded up Windows XP in a virtual machine and trying IE 8 with the latest updates and it as well does not work and does the same thing upon updateing it just keeps saying to install the latest update allthough it has allready been done!
Now on the other hand I loaded FireFox and it had the same update and upon restarting the browser after applying the update and it works just fine!
Im on a Windows 7 x64 Ultimate box and ran the WindowsXP in the VM. FireFox was loaded on the main OS and worked fine after said update.
Of Course I have allready double checked the running addons in IE 9 and the files within the /system32/ and all the flash files go there (x86 and x64 were differnt named files)
Im guessing there is something conflicting betwen IE (IE 8 and 9 tested)
Now this is not just happining on this machine but all of our desktops and laptops no one has any trouble with FireFox working
Also this will break all flash objects in IE even localy as now no flash works it acts like it is not installed.
Guess will see how long this takes to get fixed or aknowledged... lol

Open in new tab not working properly. How can I get it to stop opening new windows?

Firefox recently updated and my + open new tab button was gone. I found and downloaded the extension to put it back on, which is now gone but never worked. I have checked options>tabs and it is supposed to be opening new tabs. I can click file open new tab and it still opens everything in a new window. I've loved firefox for several years but if this isn't fixable quickly I'm gone. Can anyone help?

You definitely should not need an extension to get a new tab button!
Do you have any tab related extensions now, such as Tab Mix Plus or Tab Utilities?
Try resetting your toolbar layout by renaming the file that stores customizations. Firefox should returns to the default settings for toolbars and windows. Here's how:
(1) Open your personal settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder
Help (or Alt+h) > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
(2) Switch back to Firefox and exit the program (e.g., File > Exit)
(3) Wait a few moments for Firefox to finish updating files in your settings folder, then rename '''localstore.rdf''' to something else, like localstore-bad.rdf or localstore.old. Alternately, you can delete the file.
(4) You're done with your profile folder and you can restart Firefox now.
Any luck?
With respect to links launching in new windows instead of tabs, the checkbox in the Options dialog should work but there is an exception for scripted windows that have certain parameters set (e.g., dialog style with no toolbars, or a specific size). Launching a link out of a dialog, which is not allowed to have extra tabs in the window, also will launch either a new window or be added to an existing window. Any chance the problem is related to those situations?

Try zapping the PRAM. See KB Article http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11243 OS X Mountain Lion: Reset your computer’s PRAM
If you are still under warranty and/or have AppleCare, call them. Let them deal w/it.

IMac 27': iSight camera is not working but it is recognized in Utilities

My iSight camera is not working. I'm sure it is not a hardware problem, because when I reinstalled MacOs Lion it worked for some time. I'm sure is a software problem. When I run FaceTime appears the message that "No camera is connected", also in Photo Booth is not working.

(1) First, be sure connections and other issues from
     here are eliminated as possible problem causes:
       • http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2400
       • http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3544
(2) Then, if Apple's http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
    suggestions do not help you, (the "reset" suggested there
    often restores normal function,) continue with the following.
(3) Use Disk Utility to repair permissions and then
    download and apply the 10.7.2 Combo Update:
     http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1459
(4) Repair permissions again immediately following the
     system restart that completes the Combo update.
Properly applying the Combo version of updates can sometimes correct problems like yours.

You can use a paper clip instead of the PIn that came with the iPad.

After copying a movie to the harddisk of my MacBook I wanted to also copy it to my iPad, but for this you first have to copy it to the library in iTunes, but this doesn't seem to be working. So how can I get this movie to the library ? And to the iPad ?

Hi there Graham!
I have a couple of articles that can help you troubleshoot this issue. First, if you are downloading HD content, you will need to know the system requirements for HD playback, which can be found here:
iTunes: Purchasing and viewing HD videos
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3209
Next, you will want to check your video playback settings on your Windows machine. The steps for that can be found right here:
Troubleshooting iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7 video playback performance issues
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1718
Hope that helps. Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
