ISight works with iChat & iMovie but not with 3rd-party apps
Hi,
I cannot get iSight to work at all with aMSN, Mercury Messenger or Yahoo. It is fine with the Apple apps. My son has a G4 iBook and the same iSight works fine on this with the Apple apps and aMSN. We have looked at all the settings we can think of, and they are the same on both computers. There must surely be a very simple answer...
Any help greatly appreciated.
Bob.
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.3)
Hello Bob. If you unhook your son's iBook from the ethernet cable, plug in your PowerBook where his iBook was, and still have the same problem, you likely need some work on your Mac.
It may be an issue of the relative health of your Mac versus the vagaries of some third party software:• Be sure you Mac OS X maintenance is up to date.
• If you have not already done so, try re-applying the 10.4.3 Combo Update. Unless you have a "tried and tested" update method, I suggest a technique such as How I Update My Mac OS X.If that does not help, and if your Mac works with all your other apps, see the app's Help, Readme, or other documentation that came with the download for the problem app(s). If that fails, see the Support sections of the third party app web site to find out its known issues with your Mac and for help on how to install and use their applications. If they cannot help you use their application, you may want to try a different app.
In the worst case, you may want to get a PC if you must connect to the PC versions of Microsoft or Yahoo! Messenger. These apps are better supported for the PC platform, although they do not offer the features of iChat AV 3.
The simpler answer is iChat AV, but iChat AV will not connect for video with your chosen third party apps.

My firewire port works with ext hd but not with audio interface
2010 Imac 21.5 running 10.8.5. My firewire port works with ext hd but not with audio interface. The local authorized Apple tech said that I need a new motherboard, but my firewire ext drive works perfectly. I don't understand. Thanks.
You must go to the website of the audio interface manufacturer and look for, download and install updated drivers for the audio device you are using.
This is not, neccessarily, an Apple issue. -
Have Sony reader 505, ADE doesn't recognize when attached to mac OX 10.6.8. works with reader library but not with ADE
YEAY!
I just got the solution (that worked for me, anyway) from a Sony support rep. No PC or VMWare needed.
OK, you've installed Sony eBook Library v3, and Adobe Digital editions, you've set up your acocunts and authorized your computer on both of them, and you've authorized your Reader with the Sony Library application.
You go to the public library ebook download page, either through the Sony Library or just through a bookmark.
You check out a book, and open it in Adobe Digital Editions, which still won't recognize your Reader.
BUT, in the Sony Library app, you can now click "File, Import.." and go find the pdf you downloaded with the Adobe app.
On my Mac, it was in ~/Documents/Digital Editions
Import it, and drag it to your Reader.
The first time you do this, it will ask you to authorize the Reader with your Adobe ID.
Worked like a charm. -
I have my iTunes library stored on an external hard drive which is connected to my airport extreme, I wish to share my iTunes library over my network, I can do this with my laptop, but not with my iPad, can anyone tell me if it is possible
You can't connect directly to the external drive, but should be able to use iTunes Home Sharing via the laptop.

My Printer (samsung clx-3185fw) says it connects to my network but I can't seem to print wirelessly. I could with my netgear but not with my airport extreme, any ideas?
I have restarted all units, disconnected and reconnectedHi ryanfromstockbridge,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on exactly what you are seeing when you try to add the printer or print to the printer. If you continue to have issues printing to this wireless printer, you may find the information and troubleshooting steps outlined in the following articles helpful:

ESR,ID working with 8000 port but not with 50000
Hi experts,
I am working with PI 7.1. I am working with SOAP to ABAP SERVER Proxy scenario. I have downloaded the WSDL from ID and using XMLSPY sent a SOAP request to PI server and I got an error in SXMB_MONI under the Call Adapter step saying CLIENT_RECEIVE_FAILED.
We cross checked the services in SMICM transaction, and we missed the HTTP port 8000 for the parameter icm/servr/port_xx.
Then basis team changed the port 8000 in SMICM for the same parameter and restarted the Java stack.we checked the icm/HTTP/j2ee parameter which is having 50000 port.
Now ESR,ID,SLD,RWB... etc are working with ABAP port 8000 but not with 50000 java port and also I am getting an error in SXI_ CACHE while doing my delta refresh if_http_client receive http_communication_failure : http_communication_failure:ICM_HTTP_CONNECTION_FAILED. Kindly suggest me to resolve this error.
NaveenHi,
Re: Architecture of PI 7.1
NW PI 7.1 - ICM is not binding to port 5$$00
from the above two threads it is very clear that from PI 7.1 both the ABAP and J2EE ports are same.
Now we maintained both the ICM and j2ee port as 50000. Now ESR,ID,SLD are working with port 50000.
But in my SOAP to Proxy scenario I am getting the same error. When I try to send request to XI server using Altova xmlspy I am getting following error in SXMB_MONI under Call Adapter
<SAP:Code area="INTERNAL">CLIENT_RECEIVE_FAILED</SAP:Code>
<SAP:P1>400</SAP:P1>
<SAP:P2>ICM_HTTP_CONNECTION_FAILED</SAP:P2>
When i click that HTML error It shows
404 Resource not found
I am getting the following error in CC monitoring .
com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException: com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException: XIServer:CLIENT_RECEIVE_FAILED
My reciever communication channel is in green status CC monitoring.
I tested my server proxy in my end system which is successfully fetching data.
I am using the following URL format for generating the WSDL from Integration directory.
http://host:port /XISOAPAdapter/MessageServlet?channel=p:s:c
Do we need to maintain the Fully qualified host name in the above URL?
I tried with a test scenario which is an asynchronous communication with the above mentioned URL format. I got a success message in SXMB_MONI.
Since I am using PI 7.1 I tried the following URL also but i this case,the XML spy itself throws error. I couldnt see any messages in SXMB_MONI.
http://host:port/XISOAPAdapter/MessageServlet?senderParty=&sender
Service=FS&interface=IF&receiverParty=&receiverService=TS&interfa
ceNamespace=IFNamespace
I have seen many threads in SDN for this same error but I didn't get an answer for my scenario.

Thanks for the quick responses.

Wireless video link example works with antenna only but not with SMA to SMA cable
I am trying to run wireless video link example https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-22728 . It works fine if I use install antennas on my Tx and Rx USRPs. But it does not work if I use SMA to SMA cable to connect Tx and Rx USRPs. Can somebody guide me what is the reason why it is only workng with antennas but not with SMA to SMA cable.
Thanks
JKI connect the 30 dB attenuator at RF input port of Rx USRP. But it does not work completely.
Without connecting attenuator i was not able to receive any thing on my Rx VI although it shows waveform. But after connecting attenuator receiver some times receive text messages and some times not. Also it does not work at all for images and for video it works partially but gives some error related to memory full after few mins.
I want to know why this example works completely without any problem if I use antennas, and why it does not work perfectly if i use sma to sma cable for connecting transmit and receive usrps.
Please guide
Thanks

Macbook Pro 7,1 (mid 2010?) boot with 6GB mem, but not with 8GB
Hello,
I bought a Macbook Pro 13" equipped with 4GB RAM at Apple Store on Oct-2010, and it says it's Macbook Pro 7,1 in profiler.
I tried to upgrade the RAM from 2GBx2 to 4GBx2, but the MBP freezed in boot sequence with 8GB RAM.
After some tests, including swap and change the combination of memory modules, I found my MBP can boot with 2+4GB configuration, but not with 4+4GB.
Does anyone know similar issue on the latest MBP 13"?This is a memory speed problem - check here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=13154160#13154160
When using 2+4 gb, memory speed is choosen, based on the slowest dimm - the 2gb one (1066mHz), when using single/double 4gb - speed is 1333mHz).
You can see the memory speed in diagnostic mode. I'm trying some stuff, if I succeed, I'll post my way.
ps. Changing 4gb memory sodimms to 1066mHz will solve your problem. Or if apple fixes the efi to downclock the 1333mhz ones (which btw every pc can do from the bios). -
Why does my Web Handler work with Internet Explorer, but not with Firefox
I am trying to develop a web page that uses the Simile Timeline (http://code.google.com/p/simile-widgets/wiki/Timeline) with data from SQL Server.
In initial testing of my timeline I tested it with Example.xml, a static XML file in the correct format to be event data. I wrote the following in the appropriate place within mytimeline's Javascript: -
var WebHandler = "Example.xml"
tl.loadXML(WebHandler, function (xml, url) { eventSourceFamily.loadXML(xml, url) });
This worked fine with both Firefox and Internet Explorer. I then changed the assignment to
var WebHandler = "GDBTimeline.ashx?Type=Family&Userid=" + getControlValue("input", "hdnUser");
so that invoked a web handler that could look up the SQL database and return the XML that I wanted, and wrote this web handler.
This works perfectly with Internet Explorer, but with FireFox the timeline band is blank. Yet when I examine the http traffic with Fiddler2 (http://www.fiddler2.com/fiddler2/) I see that with either browser there is a response from URL
/GDB_pages/GDBTimeline.ashx?Type=Family&Userid=robertb
that returns the XML that it is supposed to.
I have previously used web handlers with Firefox before, with no problems. The Fiddler results conclusively show that the web handler is invoked, and returns the appropriate XML, and this XML is identical to the XML from the static test with Example.xml.
Where do I start looking for answers? I don't even know if this is a Simile problem, a Firefox problem, or an ASP.NET problem.
Thank you, Robert.Problem solved. The issue: Content Type was not correct.
Visual Studio creates the web handler with dummy code like this: -
Public Sub ProcessRequest(ByVal context As HttpContext) Implements IHttpHandler.ProcessRequest
context.Response.ContentType = "text/plain"
context.Response.Write("Hello World")
End Sub
I wrote a database query that set a string variable to the XML I wanted: -
Public Sub ProcessRequest(ByVal context As HttpContext) Implements IHttpHandler.ProcessRequest
Dim Outstring as string
' my logic to fill Outstring with XML
context.Response.ContentType = "text/plain"
context.Response.Write(Outstring)
End Sub
This works with Internet Explorer. However it's not strictly correct: to make it work with other browsers as well,
context.Response.ContentType = "text/plain"
should be
context.Response.ContentType = "text/xml"
It now works with IE, FF, and Chrome, and presumably all others. -
AirParrot works fine with 10.8, but not with Bootcamp Win7
Hello!
I know that this is not a problem directly linked to Apple, but maybe someone uses a similar setup.
Since i have a Mid2010 iMac, i can't use the built-in AirPlay mirroring of ML and have to rely on a 3rd party product.
I my case i'm using AirParrot (1.4.3), which works fine if used in ML. Great picture in 1080p and flawless sound on my Samsung TV.
But the windows version of AirParrot (1.0.4) won't detect my ATV3, regardless of which configuration i'm trying. I'm using the identical network setup with ML and Win7 and i'm running out of options for a reason why it isn't detected. For playback i'm using VLC player on both OS.
Any ideas?
If you need more information, just ask.I made all my media compatible to ATV and transferred it into iTunes. Now i can play everything directly from ATV via network. Wasn't that much of an effort via batch converting for video content. My music has already been in iTunes.

Applet work with JRE 7_51 but NOT with JRE 7_45
Hello,
My major problem is, that my Applet signed with COMODO certificate DOES NOT WORK with JRE 7_45.
The SAME applet works fine with JRE 7_45, if I sign this applet WITH A SELFMADE UNTRUSTED certificate.
WHY the comodo signed applet doesn't run in JRE 7_45 ???
If i launch the comodo signed applet with JRE 7_51 it works perfect !!!
But in our company we got JRE 7_45 and I have to deal with JRE 7_45. That’s my problem.
Could you please tell me a solution what I have to do that the comodo signed applet works also in JRE 7_45.
Thank you!
PhilippThanks gimbal2.

The version im using is 6.45 but im sure the same problem occurs also with other versions of JRE6 .
... and the problem disappear with JRE7 ...
trouble is my company want people to use JRE6

Airport/TC working with MacBook Pro but not with my Mac Pro???
Hi all,
I've got a Time Capsule connected to a Westell Modem through AT&T. Needless to say; I've had a lot of issues with my setup but this one has my stumped.
After my network crashed a few days ago, I reset everything and got my Airport network running on my laptop. I cannot get it to work on my Mac Pro. My MP doesn't even see the Time Capsule when I run Airport Utility. It'll show the network on the Airport Icon at the top of the page and will even let me choose it when picking a network to connect to.
Anyone know what to do, please help!!!
Thanks!!!
ChrisOn the Mac that won't connect using wireless:
Open System Preferences and click on Network
Click the Airport connection on the left
Click the Advanced button on the lower right
Look for the name of your wireless network and delete it using the - (minus) button at the bottom of the connection list. Delete any other networks that you do not need as well
Apply changes
Open Hard Drive > Applications > Utilities > KeyChain Access
Under the Kind column, look for any listings of Airport Network Password and delete them
Restart your computer
Keep your Mac close to the TC for now and click the AirPort icon at the top of the screen and try to log on to your wireless network.
