My ichat isnt working :( help?

Hello,
A few days ago I got a cannot connect problem now my aim is working fine because one of my buddies was on there fine, and when I go on ichat they arnt signed on or anything and there online aim. So I know they havent removed me but what do I do its rather frustrating Im upset cause I love I chat. Hope you can help please???
Thanks.

Hi,
If you have two Screen Names and your Buddy is only using one of them at his end AND he has Allow Buddy List only then he will appear Off-Line to one of your Screen Names.
To state it as if you were the Buddy.
Lets Buddy 1 has two Screen Names A and B
You Add Buddy A to your Buddy List
Then you go to iChat > Preferences > Accounts > Security Settings tab
In here you set the option to Allow Buddy List Only
Your Buddy will only see you as On-line in his A Screen Name Buddy list even if he has added you to both.
His B Buddy List will not see you as On-Line as you have not Allowed him to
Providing that you have not entered the Jabber Screen Name as an AIM type by mistake in the iChat > Preferences > Accounts > + Button drop down bit that chooses the Account type for the Buddy List there should be no confusion.

    my volume isnt working help, my volume isnt working help

    Hey jusmile_,
    Here is an article for you that will help you troubleshoot this issue:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
    No sound through stereo headset
    Inspect the headset jack for debris and clean if necessary.
    Connect the headset and make sure the connector is pushed in all the way.
    Check the volume setting. Adjust the volume by pressing the volume up and down button on the left side of the iPhone.
    If you are trying to listen to music and cannot hear any audio, make sure that the music on iPhone is not paused. Try squeezing the headset microphone to resume playback. Additionally, from the Home screen you can choose iPod > Now Playing, then tap Play.
    Make sure the latest version of iTunes is installed on the computer that you are syncing the iPhone with (songs purchased from the iTunes Store using earlier versions of iTunes won't play).
    Try another Apple headset (some third-party headsets require an adapter to be used with original iPhone).
    Try a different song or video.
    Check to see if the iPhone alert sounds or other iPhone sound effects exhibit the same audio issues.
    Disconnect the headset from the iPhone and see if sound comes from the built-in speaker.
    Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Braden

  • 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.

  • ICHAT ISNT WORKING.

    So whenever I try to chat with someone for longer than 5 minutes, then ichat fails or aim? It says. . .
    An AIM service error occurred.
    Error: Serv:RequestTimeout
    Can someone help me or at least tell me what i need to do????

    Hi,
    Welcome to the    Discussions
    I take it that is a Text chat ?
    Go to the iChat Menu > Preferences > Accounts > Server settings.
    Change the port from 5190 to 443 (You will need to be Logged out to do this)
    Also try it with and without the SSL login if using iChat 4

  • TS3694 MY PHONE ISNT WORKING HELP.

    I was on my Iphone playing games. Then 10-30 minutes later I was needed to put it on silent  So i went to go and flick the little switch and nothing was happening, it was pitch black, I put it on charge and it keeps flashing the apple logo every 10 seconds. Itunes also dosen't recognise its connected, please help

    Here's what I found about error 21:
    Check for hardware issues
    Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the alert when you update or restore, contact Apple support.
    Common errors: 1, 10-47, 1002, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1000-1020.

    Probably dead if you have tried to charge it.
    You should never try to charge or turn on a wet electronic device.
    You should let it dry for  a week or so, then try.

    Connect the iPod to your computer and charge it for at least an hour and then try to restore the iPod via iTunes on your computer.  If it asks for an passcode and you do not know it place the iPod in recovery mode to bypass the the passcode.  For recovery mode see:

    After being connected to a charging source overnight try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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 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.
