Mic won't work with Yahoo voice!

Hi all...
YahooIM just upgraded their 3.0 beta for Mac, now to include voice chat. A friend & I both upgraded on the same day. I can hear him AOK, but I get get him to hear me, nor show any input bars on the tiny screen VU meters.
Now here's the difference: He has an Intel iMac w built-in cam and mic while I'm running 10.4.11 on a dual G5 silver tower and an iSight cam. [My cam & mic work great on iChat/AIM, as well as input for iMovieHD, so the cam is working OK]
So, anyone have a similar situation?
Any ideas?
Work arounds?
Fixes?
Thanks!

The voice chat is through the telephone icon. Have you tried using the telephone voice chat to contact your buddy? Did you repair permissions and restart your computer after installing YahooIM? How about reinstalling YahooIM? Remember 3.0 is beta & issues should be expected.
I have been using 3.0 for quite some time and to date have not experiencing any issues using the telephone voice chat.

  • Mic won't work with Skype on Windows installed using BootCamp Assistant?

    I recently purchased a 17" MacBook Pro in Australia. I installed Windows 7 Ultimate and updates as well using BootCamp Assistant. Everything works fine in Windows except when I downloaded and logged in to Skype and video-called one of my friends.
    I could see my friend and he could see me, but we couldn't hear each other. I beleive there is a problem with the built-in mic, which Windows doesn't recognize or doesn't have the driver for it installed. If it's a driver problem, can anyone tell me which specific driver to download? It'd make things so much easier!
    Please help!
    Thanks.

    Did you download and install the drivers? You need to download the drivers then install them from within Windows. See the Boot Camp Installation Guide. http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_10.7.pdf
    Also search these forums for links to the audio drivers from the manufacturers's site.

  • Default Mail app not working with yahoo mail. Won't update.

    Default Maill app not working with Yahoo Mail.
    It stopped working the other day. I tried everything but it wouldn't update new mail. The yahoo account itself is fine because I can see new mail on Yahoo or a yahoo app.
    I tried deleting the account and putting it back on, but now it has 0 mail in any part of it. Nothing has synced.
    What do I do?
    iPad 2 latest OS.

    A lot of people have been unable to access Yahoo e-mail on their iPhones or iPads. My wife’s iPad was not downloading Yahoo mail, although her iPhone was. Both used IOS 8.2. We tried deleting the account several times and troubleshooting all of the other settings. The problem appears to have been that allowing the IOS to automatically create the account on the iPad resulted in the wrong settings for the incoming server. The following procedure, pieced together from two websites, fixed the problem for us. So far, so good.

    https://help.yahoo.com/kb/mobile-mail/imap-server-settings-sln4075.html
    On the iPhone, tap Settings.
    Tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    Tap your Yahoo account, then delete it.
    Tap Add Account.
    Tap Other.
    Tap Add Mail Account.
    Complete the Name, Address (email address), Password and Description fields.
    Click Next.
    Ensure IMAP is selected.
    Enter the following incoming mail server information:
    Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server - Requires SSL
    Server: imap.mail.yahoo.com
    Port: 993
    Requires SSL: Yes
    Hostname is mail.yahoo.com.
    Username is your full email address
    Password is the same password used to access webmail.
    Enter the following outgoing mail server information:
    Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - Requires SSL
    Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
    Port: 465 or 587
    Requires SSL: Yes
    Requires authentication: Yes
    Username is your full email address
    Password is the same password used to access webmail. It may have been entered for you.
    Tap Next.
    The iPhone will establish an SSL connection to your IMAP and SMTP servers.
    That’s all!

  • I would like to update to Firefox 5.0.1, but I can't due to, too many things won't work with the version & will be disabled.

    I have wanted to update from 3.6.22, to 5.0.1, but can't do to the following reasons: I can't due to, too many things won't work with the version & will be disabled. They are: Microsoft. NET Framework Assistant 1.2.1, Iconix 3.90.1, HP Detect 1.0.5.1, Yahoo! Toolbar 2.3.5.201101200332202 (I don't care about Yahoo! Toolbar, because I don't use it!). As soon as these issues are fixed, I will be able to update, to the latest versions. These issues should be fixed & ready to work, before a new version is available. Thank you!

  • Satellite A300 - inbuilt Chicony webcam won't work with Win Live Messenger

    Hello
    I just bought a *Satellite A300-1MC* (runs on Vista Home Premium), and downloaded Windows Live Mail And Live Messenger.
    The inbuilt webcam won't work with Live Messenger ; and when selecting Tool, Audi + Vieo Setup in Messenger I get thye following message : "We are unable to run Audi Video setup".
    The webcam works fine with the Camera Assisant Software.
    I have tried : 1) killing the C.A. Software and starting Messenger ; 2) dowanloading a webcam driver from Toshiba website ; 3) Updating Windows Vista
    None of the above work.
    Any suggestion gladly received.....
    Thomas

    Hi,
    Many thanks for the advice.
    I have downloaded and installed ManyCam 2.3, then rebooted.
    The ManyCam software works fine, and picks up signal from the inbuild webcam.
    But Windows Live Messenger still doesn't pick up the camera. I can not start a Video call or go to" Video Audio setup".
    I have Windows Live Messenger version 14.0.8064 (installed on Tuesday).
    Funny enough, yahoo messenger works fine : it gets a signal from the webcam.
    Conclusion : i think it is Windows Live Messenger that doesn't work properly for some reason.
    I have ordered a new external webcam, in the meantime.
    Thomas

  • A mic that will work with PE10

    I am working with PE10 and need a mic that will allow me to do voice overs.  From what I have read, a USB mic is not one that works.  Will someone please suggest a mic that will work with a MacBook Pro and PE10?
    Thank you,

    Several years ago I purchased a desktop Labtec microphone that plugs into the computer jack. It is not a Logitech product.
    After all these years, it is still working helping me generating great narrations with various versions of Premiere Elements on Windows XP 32 bit and Windows 7 64 bit. I am not sure if the brand/model is still around and whether or is compatible with Mac.
    When I first went looking for a desktop microphone, I could not find a USB type that worked. But, it took me a while to find the "right" desktop microphone even for the ones that plug into the computer jack.
    I will post this Adobe link for narration in case you ever need it.
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/premiereelements/using/WSED45334D-D309-445e-AF34-2AB3E3CCAA8D. html
    But, I would mention something that you might want to consider if all else fails...if your preferred microphone works with it,, create your narrations with the free audio editor named Audacity and then import the .wav narrations into Premiere Elements with Premiere Elements Get Media/Files and Folders.
    http://audacity.sourceforge.net/
    We will be watching for your progress.
    Thanks.

  • I have recently upgraded my iMac Intel G5 iSight to OS 10.6.8 and now the internal mic does not work with skype or facebook. I can here static when playing back clips. Do I need to update firmware or reload old sys parts

    I have recently upgraded my iMac Intel G5 iSight (iMac5,1) to OS 10.6.8 and now the internal mic does not work with skype or facebook. I can here static when playing back clips. Do I need to update firmware or reload old system parts. I have zapped PRAM. The blue indicator in system audio panel will appear for a second as I slide the bar for internal mic but then it disappears. Is there a fix?

    The sound seems very faint but can here static on playback.

  • My Viewsonic monitor won't work with the Imac using the Mini Port to DVI adapter.

    My Viewsonic monitor won't work with the Imac using the Mini Port to DVI adapter. I also tried the HDMI to DVI adapter ane the Mac-Mini with same result. The monitor does work on my older Macbook Pro that has the DVI connector. Is it a Software/Driver issue ?

    Should be extremely simple, please carefully read Connect multiple displays to your Mac. If you still have problems then it's probably a cable issue that would be resolved by replacing the adapter cable. You should be using this adapter. If you are using a third party adapter that might be your problem!

  • New ipod touch won't work with itunes 10.6.3 says it needs 11.1 but I cannot load that on my macbook using OSX 10.5.8 any way around this?

    New ipod touch won't work with itunes 10.6.3, says it needs 11.1 or newer but I cannot load that onto my MacBook running on OSX 10.5.8 - is there anyway around this?

    No. If your MacBook has an Intel processor you can update to OSX 10.6.8 and then install the latest iTunes.
    A 5G iPod with iOS 7 requires that if you have a Mac you have OSX 10.6.8 or later.
    You can get 10.6.8 here:
