Possible Fix for Random Video Chat Error!

Recently, I was having problems starting video chats. They would start, then disconnect. I figured out I had installed a program called tinyproxy. It interfered with iChat. If you have installed tinyproxy or another similar program, follow the steps below to remove it.
1. Open Terminal
2. Type locate tinyproxy (or your program name)
3. I got a list like:
/usr/local/etc/tinyproxy
/usr/local/etc/tinyproxy/tinyproxy.conf
/usr/local/etc/tinyproxy/tinyproxy.conf-dist
/usr/local/man/man8/tinyproxy.8
/usr/local/sbin/tinyproxy
/usr/local/share/tinyproxy
/usr/local/share/tinyproxy/HTML_VARIABLES
/usr/local/share/tinyproxy/debug.html
/usr/local/share/tinyproxy/debug.html.dist
/usr/local/share/tinyproxy/default.html
/usr/local/share/tinyproxy/default.html.dist
/usr/local/share/tinyproxy/stats.html
/usr/local/share/tinyproxy/stats.html.dist
You need to remove them.
4. Go to finder, click the go menu, then go to folder.
5. Type /usr/
6. Navigate around, moving the respective folders to the trash. (You will be prompted for your admin password each time).
7. Empty Trash
8. Relaunch iChat and enjoy.
This trick has worked on iChat AV 3 and iChat 4.

Thats interesting. I wonder what could be touching to make that happen? Well hopefully this might help some of ya'll that are having the issues with RSD.

Anyone have a fix for Facebook video chat not working in Mavericks?

I have seen many people having the problem of video chat not working in Facbook since upgrading to Mavericks. The good news is the camera icon has reappeared, but it still is not working.
Any help would be AWESOME!!
thx

Hi,
If it is in Messages it will need to be Messages to Messages.
i.e. a Mac Buddy also using iChat or Messages to do Jabber Video chats in the app.
This means it will not connect to someone using a Jabber app that can do Video or the web Page login and using "chat" from there.
I believe the Web Browser method with Facebook's own end to end connection use Flash.
You may need to update a version of Flash if your have it or install it if you do not.
FaceTime would not connect to the Jabber connections that Facebook is running.
FaceTime is it's own service and does not connect to others.
Messages and FaceTime are run on different servers and you can in fact run different IDs in each.
(this can causes issues when your Invoke a FaceTime Video Chat from Messages which presumes the Contact is using the same ID).

ATTENTION! POSSIBLE FIX FOR iPod VIDEO PROBLEMS

For all of you out there who may be experiencing INSANE problems with your new iPod, this may help. We had a ton of issues with a brand new 60g iPod tonight, Christmas present blah blah blah same as everyone that has questions here. Anyhow, after hours and much cursing and my eyelid twitch going mad, we got the dang thing to work! I am drawing the assumption that this thing was shipped screwed up and a restore MUST be done in order for it to work. (All the freezey, sad faced, file with an exclamation point, stuck screens, everything, we went through ALL of that!!!) BUT we had to use the old October version of the iPod updater that comes on the CD NOT the newest one available for DL from November. The November version gave us disk write errors and a resotre could not be done. Also, the iPod went into "disc mode" before we were able to restore it and apparently you can do this yourself (ours did automatically, don't ask me how) There was a link somewhere in this mess about it, you'll have to search on it I suppose. Anyhow, it really was f-ed up right out of the box, it would eject itself while in the middle of song transfers and then there would be nothing on the iPod, then it froze, then... well, it's been hours so I'll spare you the rest. It's working splendid now, so try a restore with the OLD version of iPod updater and good luck to you all. Merry Christmas.

I hear ya loud and clear, an hour after I posted ours did the same thing again.... Does it comfort you to know you're not the only one? Oh, and don't think it's your computer, we have two and it does the same bs on both. :0(

Possible fix for errors 11503 and 50

Here's a possible fix for Error 11503 and for error 50.
It worked for me and hopefully it will work for you.
I believe this error is caused by the incomplete downloading of either an update to an app. In my case it was caused by closing the lid on my laptop when I was downloading app updates on a very slow internet connection in a hotel.
Anyway, here is what I did that fixed it completely.
Close iTunes.
Go to this folder : /iTunes/Mobile Applications/Downloads
You'll find tmp files there. Drag them out of this folder to a temporary folder on your desktop. The Downloads folder should now be empty.
Restart iTunes.
All should be fine.
If it is, delete the desktop folder with all the temp files.
If it's not, then I can't help further, but that's what worked for me.

Several possible causes from the info you gave
Battery level low - recharge it for at least 4 hours till the full charge sign displays (2 prong icon instead of lightning icon).
Time to Reset the iPod - Press the Menu and center Button for about 10 secs till the Apple logo comes ON, then let go of the buttons.
your hardisk is starting to give problems, hence the skipping and some song refuse to play. - Do a disk diagnostic - follow this post by tt2.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/17028567#17028567
If you have updated any sofware application in Windows, then follow this Apple support procedure
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1539
Most likely you have to do all, as the iPod hardisk filesystem would have been corrupted, or else the iPod Reset would bring it to normal operation.
Good Luck!

Random video chat for iPad

What is available for iPad random video chatting?

Thank you for answering. I checked on Chatroulette and a couple of others, and they stated you needed Adobe Flash Player, which of course is not available with Apple products. Maybe someday they will get that worked out.
Thanks again so much.

QQ International for Mac: Video Chat problem

Hello Communities,
I downloaded the MAC version for QQ International to talk to a cousin of mine who will be working in China. He's had it on his Windows system here in the states for sometime with no problems. I can get the audio part to work, but the video function works sporadically, and it seems only to turn on my camera if I'm the one making the call. What I've read says there is no video chat function for the Mac version, but that's strange given that my camera does come on in the cases I've mentioned. I also then opened up Windows using Parallels, downloaded that version of it, and am having a similar problem. I have since uninstalled the one on my Windows (in parallel) and the Mac one from my Mac. There is an update for the Mac version of it, but when you click on it, it takes you to the Chinese version of the website, so I didn't proceed further. Anyone have any experience with this and have a fix to make it work?
Regards and Thanks in advance

HI Bassplayuh,
Since I downloaded the last QQ version on Tencent Website, as soon as I am called or I call for a video chat, my QQ crashes.... Tried to get the older version from the App store, but now it is the same.... Anyone got a solution?
Thanks in advance.

"Insufficient resources for this video mode" error in IMAQ for IEEE-1394 1.1

I'm using 3 Sony DFW-X700 cameras (1024x768 YUV 4:2:2) and 1 Sony XCD-X700 (1024x768 8-bit mono) connected to 2 IEEE-1394 adapter cards (3 ports each). I'm running LV 6.1 on WinXP Pro PT.
I've tried several acquisition modes, and the only one that works fine is 'continuous acquisition', using 1 buffer per camera. The problem is that I can only setup 2 color cameras and 1 mono camera. If I try to setup 3 color cameras, I get an 'insufficient resources for this video mode' error. I would like to know if it's possible to configure more memory for the acquisition buffers under IEEE-1394 so that I can avoid this error.

Habil,
You might want to try to lower the frame rate of the cameras. This error is caused because the driver is able to allocate only part of the firewire bandwidth for your image acquisition, and a three camera color acquisition requires a huge amount of bandwidth. This is currently an issue that our R&D department worked this period and is going to be resolved in the next release of the driver. This release should be ready in one month. Good luck!

Isight used for other video chats

Is it possible for you to use your webcam for other video chatting sights ? I have been trying to video chat online with my friends in college in atl, but its not really recognizing my webcam. I have the Imac with the built in isight. Can anyone help me ?

Welcome to Apple Discussions, JusJay315
As Ralph has already posted, iChat is the clear winner for quality and features in Mac to Mac video chat, but there are LOTS of other choices. If you have iChat quesitons, Ralph and his comprehensive iChat FAQs site will help you with the answers.
Other video chat apps are shown in the "Chatting and Conferencing" section of Some Applications You Can Use With iSight
If you are trying to use your OS X Mac to video chat with a PC user who will use nothing but MSN Messenger or Microsoft Messenger, use aMSN or Mercury on your Mac to get video (but no audio) when you text chat with him.
Additionally , there are web based video sites such as Stickam (to use them, configure your "Flash" settings as described in http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4761707&#4761707 ), and video conferencing sites like MeBeam (see the "MeBeam ™ Blog" page for instructions.) There are many others.

Possible Fix for Printing Problems in Leopard

I got this information from Mac OS X Leopard Edition book by David Pogue. Here's his possible fix for printing problems in Leopard...Open web browser and enter this address http://127.0.0.1:631. You'll find youself at a secret "front end" for CUPS (Common UNIX Printer System), the underlying printing technology for Mac OS X 10.5. This trick lets your Mac communicate with a huge array of older printers that dopn't yet have Mac OS X drivers. Using this administration screen, you can print a test page, stop your printer in its tracks, manage your networked printers and print jobs, and more–a very slick trick. Haven't tried it yet...anyone who does let me know how it worked!

If you literally "checked" them, meaning the checkboxes, that only affects their visibility. To remove them, select one and then click on the "minus" part of the "plus minus" at lower left.

Possible fix for OS X 10.5.7, losing connection after sleep, restart

Possible fix for OS X 10.5.7, Airport, losing connection after sleep, restart, or cold reboot.
Issue: (For OS X 10.5.7 on iMac5,1, Intel Core 2 Duo)
=============================================
- After sleep, restart, cold reboot, even though cannot connect to Internet, but the AirPort bars are still full, as if connected.
- Losing Internet connection after sleep, restart, cold reboot.
Possible Fix:
1.Open Network Preference, click on the Location drop down list > Edit Location... > click on the wheel button > Duplicate Location.
a)Select this newly setup location; Use Diagnostic button to connect to the internet. Select Network or enter WEP password if necessary.
b)Test to make sure you can connect to a web page.
c)Go to sleep & wake up.
d)This time, the Airport bar will start to show correctly. Before, it will always be full even when not connected. Now there will be no bars or grey out when not connected.
2.On the left hand side of the Network Preference Window, there is a list of services, such as Airport, build-in ethernet, built-in FireWire, bluetooth, etc.
a)Click on the wheel button on the bottom of the service list; select Set Service Order...; move Airport to the top of the list.
b)Delete any services which you are sure that you are not going to use, such as Bluetooth, etc.
3.Pick one of the locations mentioned in #1, and make it sure it is connected. If not, use Diagnostic button. If you have to select Network or enter WEP password to connect, make it so.
a)Check to make sure you can connect to a web page.
4.Go to sleep & wake up. The Airport bar should be filled up quickly. Try to connect to a web page.
5.Restart computer. Test a web page.
6.Shut down & Start computer. Test a web page.
7.When everything is working fine, you can delete the extra location that you created in step #1.
8.Click the lock on the left lower corner of the Network Preference window to safeguard the setting.

If my assessment is correct, the LIDE 200 driver is version 14.8.1 and dated 26-Sep-2008. It is possible that the driver will not work with the latest version of OSX. I would advise that you contact Canon and ask them the question.
(Removed link because of the way Flash drives the Canon site).
It is not uncommon (though irritating) that devices no longer work when an OS is upgraded. One has to ask the question if (or why) the driver was not written in such a way as to be OS version independent.
Chris
I spoke to Canon over here in Australia. Not helpful at all. In fact they were about as useful as an ashtray on on motorcycle. Having said that the tech seemed to think that there would be an update soon. But that is assuming that Canon are aware that there is a problem with that Scanner under OS X 10.5.7.

Can no longer connect for audio or video chat : Error -8 drama

I've been video and audio chatting to Europe for quite some time with no problem. After installing a new modem (Motorola Surfboard SB5101) I'm now getting the dreaded Error -8 and can not connect for either audio or video. Text works fine.
I've poked around the forums and see some similarities with problems other users are having, but I have to assume my issues have something to do with the new modem, since I've been using audio/video chat for so long without a hassle.
I went through all the usual steps as mentioned in other threads: Firewall is off, Quicktime streaming changed to T1, tried changing the port to 443... Nothing works.
I'm using OSX 10.4.10
iChat AV 3.1.8(v445)
Modem goes to an Airport Express which is wired to my desktop computer.
I get the same results from my MacBook Pro as I do with my desktop so it's not a computer issue.
Upon inviting or being invited the wheels spin a moment and then I get a message saying I left the chat.
And the report is this:

Hi Brian,
I am not sure the Surfboard routes either.
It is not in this list http://portforward.com/routers.htm which is where we start for most people.
A little of what we are talking about.
DHCP is a way that so called server in routing devices hands out IP addresses.
You Mac will be getting one from the Airport.
You can look it up on your Mac in System Preferences > Network.
Pick the connection method from the second drop down and then the TCP/IP tab in the next section.
The IP is listed, Whether is asking for a DHCP given IP, A Subnet Mask, DSN servers (if your lucky) and the "router" IP
With an Airport Router you are likely to get an IP that starts 10.0.1.x and the "Router" is at 10.0.1.1
If connected direct to the modem the the "router" is the modem. In the case of some cable connections it will pass through the Public IP given to you by the ISP
On the whole Cable modems do not route but it is not exclusive.
IF it does not route and you connect directly to it then the IP will show may be you Public IP seen here http://myip.dk/
Next bit.
Now all ports below the number 1024 are normally open in all routers and modems that route.
Web browsing and Mail apps tend to use ports below this figure which is why any routing device will work and get you on the Net no matter how they are set up.
Applications like IM ones like iChat and On-line games use ports above this 1024 threshold and as a consequence need ports to be allowed or opened.
Next Bit.
Certain apps like iChat like the LAN and the ports open to be very Linear. In fact iChat is fussy about how many times it has to go through devices that all do NAT Based methods of opening the ports.
These methods are Port Forwarding, Port Triggering and DMZ (which is an extreme form of Port Forwarding).
Because of the way routers allow the routing and Addressing info through even from another routing device then the computer can have two IP address (one from the modem and one from the Router).
See the Second pic This means the computer sits in two subnets on your LAN.
The normal way of telling this in an iChat log is to look for the change in ports that showed up in your Log.
SO far the above infers what you can do using System Preferences > Network to find out if both device are routing.
I am not sure that the surfboard is.
I think the idea that the ISP is doing something to the packets is the problem.
Read the whole of this page http://www.ralphjohnsuk.dsl.pipex.com/page4.html if you want to know more. It starts with the Mac Firewall but goes on to the stuff listed above.

"Cannot Start Video Chat" error when trying to do video conferences

Ahoy!
I've recently upgraded to a new still camera that unfortunately doesn't work with iChatUSBCam, so I invested in a nearly-new iSight to use with my PowerMac G4 instead. Although one-way video chat conferences work fine, I keep getting the error "Cannot Start Video Chat" whenever I try to do a video conference.
The full error message reads:
"*Cannot Start Video Chat*
Your computer is not capable of initiating a multiperson video chat.
Click Text Chat to invite the selected people to chat."
There are no error codes or any other text in this message. The available buttons are the purple ?, 'Text Chat' or 'Cancel'.
I have tried this on both my 1.25ghz PowerMac G4 and my 1.33ghz PowerBook G4, and my friends I am trying to chat with have tried to initiate the conference on their 2.16ghz Intel Core Duo MacBook and MacBook Pro, only to receive the same messages too.
When doing a one-way videochat, the + button to add more people to the conference is greyed out for all of us as well. We all display the video conference button (camera with the extra pages behind it) next to our names on our buddy lists though, so our computers all believe we're capable of it!
When clicking the ? button on the "Cannot Start Video Chat" dialogue, it brings me to the help page that tells me:
+"To join a multiperson video conference, you need any G5 computer, or a 1 GHz single processor G4, or a dual processor 800 MHz G4, and a broadband connection to the Internet.+
+To host a multiperson video conference, you need any G5 computer, or a 1 GHz dual processor G4. In addition, you need an Internet connection that supports a minimum download bandwidth of 384 Kbps, and a minimum upload bandwidth of 384 Kbps."+
Both of my machines are above 1ghz G4s, so according to this help file, it shouldn't prohibit me from at least joining a conference when I'm not the host, but both of my Intel-based friends get the same message when trying to host as well. We are all on respectable Broadband or Cable internet connections, so that shouldn't limit it!
Anyone got any ideas what the problem is and how to fix it? I see no reason why this shouldn't work!
Thanks!

Hi
First have you all set the Quicktime streaming setting, goto sys prefs/quicktime/streaming/streaming speed, set to 1.5mbps(dont use automatic)
In ichats prefs click on video and change bandwidth limit to NONE.
Restart iChat.
Do a speed test on all sides and tell us the UP AND DOWNload speeds http://www.speedtest.net/

Possible Fix for the 3.1.1 app crash problem

THIS IS A POSSIBLE FIX ONLY!!!
So like many of you I upgraded to 3.1.1 and after the update all of my apps would no longer work. They contiually crashed to the home screen when I tried to open them. I tried downloading random new apps, deleting all my apps and re-installing them with no luck. I tried reseting the iPod and even restoring it through iTunes. I also tried de-authorizing and re-authorizing my computer. None of these things worked for me. Today I tried to go back to the 2.2.1 update (which is the only one I could find that would download) when I tried to upload that onto my iPod I got an error #20 so I ended up restoring back to 3.1.1 the only difference was i told iTunes to start my iPod as a new one instead of loading it from a backup. This actually worked, the only downside was I lost my favourited websites and all the saved info in my apps but hey, atleast they work.
So long story short try wiping your iPod clean and restoring as a brand new one with the 3.1.1 and it might just just work.

I just purchased the 64GB iPod touch and it had the same issues from the start. While I had the same issue with the apps I also had intermittent problems with movies not working. I reset the entire iPod touch 64gb and re-synced as 'new' (described earlier) and it is working for now. I am planning on loading some new apps and movies and re-syncing to see if it stays working.
Also, I upgraded from 3.1.1 to 3.1.2 and everything stopped working again. I am staying on 3.1.1 as long as this solution keeps working until I see something from Apple addressing this issue.
Apple usually does a better job with their software. I am hoping that this is only a software issue and not a hardware issue.
