Right off the bat says there is a communication error -8
I am running iChat 3.1.9 and trying to chat with my dad on my iMac running 10.4.11. We used to have no problems iChatting, now right off the bat we get this communication error box with this long log of the communication error -8. Any suggestions? TIA!
Hi,
Of all the iChat Error codes on Failed Connection this one is the catch-all one.
The log can be posted here (But I would say don't post the bits below the Line the says "Binary Images for iChat" as this hold no useful information for solving this.
Most often the Error 8 refers to ports or IPs being incorrect in some way.
Of those when it has worked before is using Port Forwarding to open Ports on a device that is doing DHCP - sooner or later the computer gets new IP and the Port Forwarding is pointing to the Old IP.
Check in System Preferences > Network what IP you are getting (And if it says "Using DHCP")
Compare this with the Router (or routing Modem) set up (pages) and what and where the ports are pointing.
The next most common issue is adding an extra router to the set up at one end.
This means that your (or your Buddy's) LAN can be set up with two subnets and iChat has an issue if this is not done the right way.
More than you will ever want to know about an Error 8 log http://www.ralphjohns.co.uk/page14.html
This expanded and commented Error 8 is a very late failure in the process.
If you don't have the CSeq line get beyond INVITE or don't have the "Trying", "Ringing" and 200 OK comments in what looks like repeats then you have failed earlier than this.
Of course you will not have this Log and I understand you will need to get your father's
Old Logs will be in his Home Folder/Library/Logs/iChatConnectionErrors
(Long path Hard Drive/Users/(His Shortname/Account)/Library/Logs/iChatConnectionErrors)
It is most likely be that I will pick up any reply on my tomorrow (I am here for about 3 hours each day 7.00 - 10.00 My local time - See end of Post/Sig section)

Please, if posting Logs, do not post any Log info after the line "Binary Images for iChat"

Fresh install of trial version of Captivate 8 on OS X 10.9.3 - no previous version of Captivate on machine. I've got lots of crashing to desktop problems right off the bat. Is there a patch available? I work at a University and we're evaluating for online courseware - my last experience with Captivate was 5.0. Anyone else experience this with the trial download?
Hi there,
There is no difference in terms of usage and features between a trial version and a licensed version.
Could you tell me do you get any specific error message when it crashes, or does it crash while using a particular feature, or is it random?
Can you also try with a different user account (admin) on your MAC, check if it behaves same there?
Thanks. -
Why am I having to render my unedited videos right off the bat?
I converted my movie files to QT movie files. They are imported into FCE and when I add them to the sequence (timeline), they need to be rendered before viewing live in the canvas. Why? I have added anything to them (transitions or effects).
Correct. I havent done anything other than open FCE, import 1 clip, drag clip to sequence and then I see the red rendering bar. The audio does play, but the canvas reflects that rendering is needed to show video.
The video and audio will play on the Viewer window, just not the canvas.
Item properties of a clip im trying to edit:

While I have time, I just want to get rid of that useless stuff!
So lay it on me! What can go?I agree, many of the freebies you get when starting up a new Mac may prove useful down the road. And your 128GB SSD may prove insufficent soon enough, no matter how much "useless" stuff gets dumped anyway.
Better start saving for a bigger SSD. You'll probably find that for the same $200 you paid for your piddly 128G you can find non-Apple-branded units of twice the capacity or more. -
I have an Epson Nx 420/printer/scanner, and I keep getting a message that says there is a communication error. Check the connection [W-61}. I have the snow leopard operating system Mac OS X 10.6.8 I want to scan my pictures into iphoto. Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong. Thankyou.
Make sure you have updated all of your scanner drivers. Check Software update and check with Epson tech support.
Not sure if the Gutenprint and Gimp-Print for Mac OS X (10.2 and later) drivers deal with scanners. Read the info on their website.
Check Apple's Knowledge Base for Snow Leopard & Lion Printer solutions and suggestions for scanner troubleshooting. Especially if you have an all in one. -

I have a avchd file approx 15min in length on a sdhc card. My camera says there is one file. When I put the card in the PC ( Win8.1), the PC says there are 2 files, one is 11mins approx and the other is 4mins long approx. If I bring these files into premier CS6 they are both identical length of 15mins What is going on here??
Hi and thanks... kinda getting there but still unsure WTF. I have found that the files are split at 197gb (consistent with other uses on the web), however when I import them into premier cs6 they are 15mins and 29secs, on the SDHC card the file size is 197gbfor the larger, then the shorter one is 634mb. BUT when I import both files into premier cs6 they are identical size and length both are 15.29.19 or 15mins 29sec and 19frames. I have put the card in the camera and run that as an external and it sees the files as 2 split files while if I view the files straight off the camera there is only 1 file. Why it says there are 2 files of different sizes and premier imports them as 2 identical files is a mystery to me! I have also gone back and looked at some archived footage on another card and yes there was one split file when the size exceeded 197gb but of course when I imported that footage nothing was missing because cs6 imported the file as a complete 'take' of the whole length

How can I turn off the phone saying "Call from" #/name when getting incoming call.
How can I turn off the phone saying "Call from" #/name when getting incoming call before the ring tone starts? I have a LG accolade
I recommend checking your prompts and alerts to turn this feature off. This may be you "Call Connect" or "Readout" alerts. Listed below are steps to update this feature.
With the flip open, press the Voice Command Key (on the left side of the phone).The Voice Commands feature has several settings which allow you to customize how you want to use it. Access Voice Commands, then press the Right Soft Key[Settings]. Your choices are below:
-Confirm Choices--- Automatic/Always Confirm/ Never Confirm
-Sensitivity--- Control the sensitivity as More Sensitive/ Automatic/Less Sensitive
-Adapt Voice ---If the phone often asks you to repeat voice command,train the phone to recognize your voice patterns.Train Words/ Train Digits
Prompts ---Mode/ Audio Playback/Timeout
* For Mode, set Prompts/ Readout+ Alerts/ Readout/ Tones Only.
* For Audio Playback, set Speakerphone or Earpiece.
* For Timeout, set 5 seconds or 10seconds. -

I am unable to get Lightroom Mobile to work on my home network. The Ipad says "There are no collections to sync, enable lightroom mobile on your computer", but it is enabled. I got it to work one time on another network but not at home where I use Lightroom.
Hi,
could you please give us some info on what kind of network you have?
Can other application communicate with the web?
Thanks,

I plug my iPod touch (4th generation) in to iTunes and then say yes to update to iOs 5. The download begins, takes about half an hour, then a message pops up saying there is a network error and for me to check my network. My internet is working just fine, iTunes just fine, and iPod just fine. I don't know how to fix this. I have tried dowloading iOs 5 about 5 or 6 times and this happens every single time.
Try a manual install, as outlined in the link below.
