Moved to college and can no longer video i chat

i just recentely moved in to my college dorm and now can not long video ichat with one of my friends back home. everytime i try to connect with them on video i get an error that i didnt respond. how do i fix this!?!!?!?!?

I'd also suggest asking your friend if they can change their setup.
To test - disconnect their router and plug directly into their cable modem with their computer, turn on/off the cable modem for a few min to let it reset. If this works, then your friend can fix it by forwarding ports on their end.
In my experience, port connection issues are worsened when both people are behind routers of some kind. Sometimes if 1 person is behind a router and the other person isn't - it works. (even if the one with the router is not configured correctly). So in your situation if you are only interested in chatting with one of your friends, you could fix this by asking him to fix his settings/test without router.
Also try video chatting over skype, for some reasons skype never has firewall issues, they must have written their software correctly.

  • I have a uk iTunes account but have moved to the Netherlands and can no longer connect to the iStore from my iPad. Do I need to update my iTunes account to a Dutch one?

    I have a uk iTunes account but have moved to the Netherlands and can no longer connect or make purchases. Do I need to change my account to a Dutch one?

    You can't transfer any content from one account to another account (nor can accounts be merged) - all content will remain tied to the account that downloaded it.
    Do you not have copies of all of your downloads e.g. on your computer or backup of your downloads/library ? Whilst you are in Australia you can't redownload your UK purchases (you have to be in a country to use its store), if you have them on your computer's iTunes library then you should be able to stream them from it to your Apple TV

    Try a reset of the device by pressing and holding the home and power button for 15-20 seconds until the white Apple logo appears.

  • Updated to ios5 and can no longer stream videos with apps. Solutions?

    I updated my iPhone 4 to ios5 and can no longer stream avi files that I get as mail attachments. I have two video player apps (GoodPlayer and oPlayer) and I can't choose to open the attachments with either of them when I hold down the file name in mail. Before the update, avi files played perfectly well with oplayer and now, nothing... I'm a pretty basic user and just want something that works well. Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Are you running the current versions of these apps - you have checked for app updates?
    I use OPlayer which works fine with iOS 5. As an FYI, viewing an AVI attachment received via emal is not streaming.
    Any problem with a 3rd party app you need to take up with the app developer.

    Quark XPress 8 has a few of those PPC only tools, too. Like they they forgot to update them or something.
    They were already at v9 when Lion came out and decided that official support would be for v9 only; see here.
    According to this, the only thing PPC in v9 and v8 are video encoding for SWF export -- looks like an XTension according to System Profiler. Given their position of not officially supporting v8.x in Lion, that will probably always remain broken in v8. I use v8.5.1 in Lion; works fine for me -- I don't do any SWF exporting.
    I have a few other things on my MBP, recently upgraded to Lion; I upgraded just about every app to the latest versions with exception of Quark. The only  other PPC things besied that XTension are some scripts from Adobe Illustrator CS5.1, which got installed with CS 5.5. I guess Adobe forgot to upgrade those. No biggie, I never use them.

    Apple changed MobileMe to iCloud and then restricted iCloud to 10.7 users only unfortunately
    If your machine is a 64 bit processor Intel Mac you can upgrade to 10.7 for $29, however a lot of your 10.5/10.6/Rosetta based software could cease to function, especially third party hardware drivers for printers, fax machines, all-in-ones, scanners etc.
    http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
    Also depending how old the machine is, if it can accept 4GB of RAM (preferred), older video card, may not run 10.7 very well or stable.
    My advice is to keep at 10.6.8, get a web based email service that's plaform/hardware neutral, forward your iPhone emails there. Gmail/Yahoo Mail for instance.
    When your ready for new hardware and all new software, then buy a new machine.
    If your going to go to 10.7 on your present hardware, I advise you clone 10.6.8 to a external drive first, that way you can c boot off the 10.6 disk erase the drive completely (necessary to remove hidden Lion Recovery Partition) and option boot off the 10.6.8 clone and reverse clone.

  • I have a Mac OSx 10.6.8 and iPhoto 7.1.5 and can no longer order printed photo albums unless i install new version of iPhoto. But reviews of new iPhoto so negative. Should I install it or steer clear of it??

    I have a Mac OSx 10.6.8 and iPhoto 7.1.5 and can no longer order printed photo albums unless I update to new version of iPhoto. But reviews of new iPhoto are so negative that I am uncomfortable about buying it. Will it be fine or should I steer clear of trouble and accept that i can no longer publish my photos?

    iPhoto '11 is working well.
    The reviews usually only show the comments of people who do not like the changed features.
    To get an idea what to expect, when you upgrade, look at the iPhoto '11 support sites.

  • I get an error message: "The file you are trying to play has failed to finish downloading and can no longer play." What

    I get an error message for all the Apple tutorial videos:  The file you are trying to play has failed to finish downloading and can no longer play."  What is wrong and how can I fix it?

    This means that you have downloadd the file from the internet, and the file did not download completely so the computer can't play it. To fix this, just re-download the file and make sure it finishes.

  • TS5150 have shaw gateway PVR system and can no longer get audio, picture okay, have tried optical cord as well

    Have shaw gateway PVR system and can no longer get audio, video okay, even tried using optical cord

    Ok. For TV audio:  Have you checked TV settings, tried a different HDMI cable and port ?
    For receiver, checked its settings and ATV audio settings? Made sure optical was secure on ATV and receiver, tried different cable?
    You indicated it was something that started when the PVR was introduced, so I would also contact them.

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable                     
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • I recently installed itunes update and can no longer connect to network nor internet

    I recently (sept 2013) installed itunes update and can no longer connect to a network nor internet wired /wireless. I know it is not the gateway as other devices work. Please help. I am not very knowledgable so exact instructions will be most helpful.

    Try connecting your computer/laptop directly to the base station with an ethernet cable to one of the external ports and install your network settings. If it finds it there, it will find it after you've reloaded your network info to the base via the Apple Utility. Hopefully when you disconnect afterward, all will be fine. Be sure not to select "closed" network although Macs will login with no prolem, PC's have trouble doing so even with the network data stored in the internet settings.
    Good luck!
