    Is your version of Skype known to work with your operating system version?

  • Two questions:  how do Skype and iChat compare for group video?  quality, reliability, cost, etc are important.  2) Is my MobileMe ID what I need to use in the window in making an iChat buddy?  It only says AIM above the window, online tutorial differs.

Thnx

    Hi,
    IChat uses better Video Compression than Skype does.
    On a top flight Mac you can send a 640 X 480 pixel frame up to 30 frames a sec.
    Skype can't match this.
    iChat in Video is Peer to Peer. (you can actually Log out of the Buddy list)
    Skype seems to borrow something from everyone's bandwidth to make connections.
    What do you mean by Business account Tracking ?
    iChat Adds (or can add) the First Name, Last Name of your Buddies and create an Address Book Entry
    Whether you mark those cards connected with a  company is up to you.
    (I have heard of issues with earlier version of iChat and the Address Book that "saw" the Company Name as the part of the Name and linking several Screen Names to the one name
    Audio on a Mac using Skype tend to be the same as the streaming needs are less.
    However you have to rely on any PCs audio abilities from PCs which may not be to the same standard.
    Mac to PCs in iChat and AIM can be difficult though.  (It should work but it rarely as simple as Plug and go)
    Skype may suit your needs better on ocassions.

  • My Mac HD doesn't start up, I get the reinstall prompt and do not see a macintosh HD icon while starting up using option key

    My Mac HD doesn't start up, I get the reinstall prompt and do not see a macintosh HD icon while starting up using option key.
    When start up I land into the Mac OSX Installer. Has my LION crashed or the HD is not responding?

    Try booting while holding down the Option key but make sure there aren't any disks in the optical drive first.
    I just found this:
    Select a startup disk *(on some computers)*
    Option (To open the optical drive when choosing a startup disk, press ⌘-period.)

    23 GB  of other indicates a corrupt file(s).  A restore should resolve.

    Not on an Apple device, no.
    Things are not the way popular movies and TV shows would have one believe.
    Apple goes to extremes to ensure your personal information remains protected, to a far greater extent than any other consumer product manufacturer on Earth.
    Your FaceTime videos, Messages, and everything else you do with your iPhone are as secure as your iCloud credentials.
    Anyone with your iCloud or Apple ID credentials has complete and unfettered access to everything associated with them, equal to that of your own, so keep them secure. Never divulge them to anyone you would not trust equally with your wallet, your girlfriend / boyfriend / spouse / child / Lamborghini etc.

  • Just set up advanced calling 1.0 and restarted my phone but "Video Calling" is not in my groups under contacts

    Just set up advanced calling 1.0 and restarted my phone but "Video Calling" is not in my groups under contacts

    iphone 6/6P do not support AC 1.0 HD video calling at this time.  It does support HD voice, but there is no HD indicator, but you can immediately hear the difference. 

  • Won't see/capture video

    Soooooooo frustrating....
    Ok, so I have been capturing old Hi-8 videos for some time now, through the analog input of Intensity's BlackMagic card. I have a Sony Hi-8 camcorder set up with the oh-so-special Sony audio/video output cable going to 1 channel of audio in and the Y-8 analog video in of BlackMagic.
    In System prefs, I have NTSC/PAL Y-In Analog audio selected for my input.
    In Final Cut Pro Academic 6.0.6, I have tried every possible input in Audio/Video settings, including the one that previously worked, Blackmagic NTSC Apple ProRes (HQ). I've refreshed A/V devices, clicked External Video All Frames, restarted FCP, rebooted the computer....
    But today, nothing works; I can't get FCP to see the video in the log and capture window, though I do see that the audio is coming through.
    Any suggestions? Thanks.

    You're in the wrong forum. This is the FCPX forum.
    For your FCP6 question you should re-post here.
    Good luck.

  • I bought Quick Time Pro to help edit videos and now cannot SEE any video through my Quick Time Player

    I can hear the audio for each video BUT the window for SEEING the videos does not open- it remains "closed" on top of the start/stop/pause controller.  HOW can I fix this so I can also see the videos I want to edit?
    It worked fine the day I uploaded and began using Quick Time Pro, but has not since that day....

    If it is still slow after removing Symantec, you may need a RAM upgrade. Yosemite can run very poorly on older machines with only 4 GB RAM.

  • I can't hear the music on my IPOD 60Gig 5th generation and can not see my videos

    I can not hear the music, I can not see the videos on my IPOD 5th generation. I have restored it to the original settings and it still does not work.

    That's likely an indication or one or more hardware failures of the iPod. You'll want to get the iPod serviced in order to gain full functionality of it again or start saving for a new iPod.

  • Since downloading and installing mavericks and safari I cannot use video calling on Facebook. How can I configure that so that it works?

    Since downloading and installing Mavericks and Safari I cannot use the video call in Facebook. Anybody else having this problem and if so is there a solution?

    I have this same issue! The button for to launch video chat isn't even there and when I go into skype to video in there I am able to get about 30 second of video then it freezes and won't come back.

  • Skype doesn't present option for video calls

    I recently upgraded from Windows XP to 7. Video call is not shown as an option for a call. Video and audio test fine. Any ideas?
    Thanks, ButchD

    Please,  run the DirectX diagnostics tool (32-bit mode).
    Go to Windows Start and in the Run box type dxdiag.exe and press the OK button. This will start the DirectX diagnostics program. Run this diagnostics and save the results to a file. Please, attach this file to your post.
    Be aware that you will have to zip this file before attaching it here.

  • Why do my face time, Skype and Vsee all have no video working?

    I have tried various solutions but now not only does my skype not have video capability, also it looks like my face time and Vsee video are non-existent. Frustrated!

    OK, checked out the camera's specs. and it records in DD 5.1 SS using AC3 format. In previoud versions of PrPro, one could just copy over the AC3 .dll from Encore and PrPro would ingest the AC3 Audio fine. I have read conflicting reports on CS4's ability to do this.
    You might have some success with info on this LINK. There were more in the old Adobe fora, but those links have died, since the forum change. I do not have CS4, so I cannot give you the exact .dll (name changes slightly version to version, but has "ac3" in it. It will be found in Encore and a copy of it needs to be placed in PrPro.
    I'd try the copy technique and see if it works. Next the upcoming (later this month?) CS4 update, 4.1 is supposed to fix a lot of things. This might be one of them. Exact release date has not been given, so patience will likely reward you.
    Note that you will have an extra Audio Track in your Timeline, either by your, or PrPro's creation. Instead of a little single, or double speaker icon, it will have "5.1" in the header. You will not be able to move this Audio to one of the Audio Tracks with the speaker icons, because of it's type.
    Good luck,

  • I updated iphoto and I cant see my videos

    I update the OSX and with it the iphoto.  All my videos can´t be seen.  I have them in the iphoto libary but when I want to watch them a error message appears.  i open finder and go to the iphoto libary, and the videos are there but as photos.
    How can I do to get back my videos??
    Thks.
    Tomas

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    where is your library located?
    did you have to run any updaters on iPhoto after upgrading to Yosemite?
    what fixes have you tried?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library? Compare iPhoto's Advanced preference pane to this screenshot.
    how much free space on your boot drive?

  • IMovie won't see iPhoto video

    I have iMovie '11 and iPhoto. I have imported a quicktime movie (Quicktime is running up-to-date) into iPhoto. When opening iMovie however I cannot see this movie in the iPhoto movies section and therefore cannot use it in iMovie. I have restarted all: iMovie, iPhoto and my Mac and nothing changes. Help!

    Good to hear that you now have the video in iMovie. Importing to an Event allows you to organise your videos much more efficiently than using iPhoto (movies for iMovie; photos for iPhoto).
    To see how to organize Events, have a look at this iMovie Help topic, and also check out all the topics listed in the left margin under the heading "Manage Events" (a video tutorial is also included):
