My friends can hear by not see me

We are trying to use ichat to talk to someone with video through AIM. We have had two different cases, they can see us and we can't see them, or we can see them and they can't see us. Everyone can always hear everyone. We have tried different versions of AIM 6.2 or AIM PRO. When they can't see us our green camera light is on and we have picture in picture on our side, but they just have a black screen for us. Is there any special version of AIM that you need to use? Thanks!

I have have seen the best most consistent results with AIM 6.1
They have of course got to allow it as an Exception in the XP or Vista firewall And if required have the AIM ports open in their modem or router.

    You can look at the ipad under settings, general, about and see if it's 4.3.3.
    Or when you connect the ipad to the computer with itunes, it'll tell you on the first tab if you need an update.

    What are you trying to stream?  Some websites have not enabled the video part of airplay... BBC iplayer for example.

  • Can hear but not see movies from my Casio Exilim 7.2

    Movies shot on my Casio Exilim 7.2 mega pixel camera open up in QuickTime, but I can only hear them, not see them. The files from the camera are .AVI files if that helps. Wondering if I am missing something. I went to the 3rd party software page, but either didn't see what I needed or didn't understand what I needed to download to make it work. I thought it was supposed to "just work." I'm using a brand new Macbook Pro core 2, 10.4.8
    Thanks for any help.

    The inventors and creators of the AVI "container" (Micro$oft) abandoned the file format many years ago. They have moved on to WMP formats and no longer support AVI. They must know something!
    You may be better served by exporting them to QuickTime file formats using QuickTime Pro or other third party conversion software.
    Personally I wish AVI would just die (as intended by the owners) and disappear as a file container.

  • I can hear, but not see, hidden windows (advertisements, etc.) when I open Firefox, even if I haven't visited another page. What's going on?

    For the last few days I can hear advertisements running (like streaming video ads) whenever I'm online, even if it's not on the page I'm on. Even when I open task manager, it doesn't acknowledge an additional task or page being open. What's going on, can I stop it, and how?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == a few days ago.

    LOL! That's fine! Now I understand why my computer at work updated and why it wouldn't at home. Yes, when I went to 2 different places and downloaded the file and went to run it, it stopped halfway through. Guess that's what you meant by crash. All it said was that the install was interrupted and to press OK. When you did that, the download disappeared completely.
    So thanks very much. I'll just wait like you said. After all I just did an update last week again. Seems like Firefox has been updating quite a lot lately.

  • I can hear but not see avi's imported from my digital camera

    I can't play avi files from videos I have taken on my digital camera. When I open them, I can hear the audio but I can't see the video. Is there a solution to this problem?

  • Can hear, but not see my MPEG-4 files- can anyone help me?

    So I bought a new digital camera- a Casio EXILIM that makes MPEG-4 files. When I try to play one of the MPEG-4 files, I can't seem to get the video to show up on my QT player. I'm using QT 7.0.3, and I can hear the audio portion perfectly, but there is no picture.
    The Casio manual is 7 pages of nothing that helps. Software? You're joking, right? They graciously give a copy of Photo Loader, which seems like it was written in the stone age.
    As far as Quicktime goes, I have the following plug-ins: MPG4-DIVX, MPG4* and MPG4.
    The File comes up as a .AVI file, if that makes any difference.
    Thanks for any advice of help, I appreciate it.

    J.A. Yocono,
    The VLC Media PLayer at http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ should play the files for you.
    I use ffmpegX at http://homepage.mac.com/major4/ to convert similar problem files to DV stream video files so they can be used in iMovie/iDVD. (Keep in mind that the files will grow in size from your MPG-4 sizes as DV Stream video is about 13 GB per hour of running time).

  • Can hear but not see linked video

    I can see and hear normally on youtube or some direct site. But if I try to veiw a youtube vid linked at some forum I can only hear the video and am unable to see it. I just upgraded to Windows 7 64 bit. The same thing happened on my laptop when I upgraded to Windows 7. I finally fixed it but cant remember where I found the info. Can anyone help with this?

    Try upgrading the Web browser Flash pluggin.
    While Internet Explorer is part of Windows 7, the pluggins that come with it are not the latest version and still need to be upgraded separately.
    You can check which version you have by opening IE, and in the menu bar, choose "Tools" and then "Manage Addons".

  • Can hear but not see music video on ipad2

    i downloaded an album from itunes which included a music video. I can view the video on my PC and ipod but only hear the music on my ipad - no video picture. Any ideas. Thanks

    Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.

  • Video: Can hear but not see

    We bought High School Musical 3 last night and it came with a digital copy. I wanted to have it on my iPod for my son's doctor visit today so I uploaded it to iTunes (worked fine) and then synced my iPod (worked fine once I figured out I needed to tell it to sync movies). It's on my iPod, under Videos, but only the sound plays. The little tv screen icon shows on the screen and it has the slider across the bottom showing the time, but there is no picture. The movie works fine when I play it in iTunes. I am definitely trying to play it in Videos and not in Music. I'm pretty frustrated at this point. Any ideas?

    Nevermind. I found the answer by doing a search. I had my Video Output set to ON instead of OFF or ASK. Simple solution. Thanks.

    The Apple DVD Player application isn't part of iDVD.
    Why not ask your question in http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=745 for Using Mac OS X 10.3 & earlier
    You'll probably get a better response there.

  • I can hear but not see my videos.

    Do you have copyright protected media in the project? How exactly are you exporting? What exactly are you exporting? What are the specs of the media?

    Before you go through that trouble open About this Mac > More Info... > System Report > Audio and see if the system actually knows it has a microphone.  Then you can look into Applications > Utilities >  Audio MIDI Setup and see if the microphone is there, select it and make sure the sliders are set to full. Then in System Preferences look for Sound > Input and make sure it shows up there and the sliders are at least half way up. If none of that works do a
    SMC RESET

    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord and ALL peripherals.
    Wait 15 seconds.
    Attach the computers power cable.
    Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.
    It is the 5 second timing that initiates the reset.
    then go through the process of looking for the microphone again as the reset may reenable the mic.

  • My friend can hear my music and sound

    Hi, i have a problem. my friend can hear all my music and stuff  that appends on my computer, except when i mute my mic, in which case he hears nothing. i verified, it's not the ''playback'' thing of the microphone that does this... thanks for your help!

    This issue has been mentioned a couple of times here on this forum. There seems to be an issue with audio under Boot Camp in Windows. I have not found a solution on the forums. I also have this issue, as do many other people.

  • Friends can hear my volume through my headset when...

    So pretty much I got this Logitech G230 headset and my friends can hear my game volume through skype.  I have fixed it before but my audio settings got reset and now I don't know how to fix this.  I'm 99% sure that it's not a sound card problem because I fixed this like 2 months ago.  The problem is that I think I used to fix this through the enhancements tab on the mic in my windows sound settings, but now the tab is not there.  Can somebody please help me? It has really been bothering me.  Oh, and thank you in advance!!

    Also, I forgot to mention that even when I muted my mic they could still hear my Youtube video playing in the background.
