Send webcam in msn live messenger

hi iam new to mac i was wondering if some one is willing to help me,just to save me some time searching for the answers,here are my questions:can i use my isight in msn live messenger.if not what can i do to send webcam in live messenger.how can i backup and copy my dvd's.and last do i realy don't need an antivirus....tnx in advance.

Welcome to Mac, lamanblou
Tony has already given you a link to the app you need to connect to PC users who use ONLY Messenger.
I don't think anyone needs anti-virus (AV) on any Mac running OS X. This search of Tiger (10.4) Discussions will give you a look at what others say. Personally, I do not think it necessary to use AV software even for things you send to your PC friends because any PC that is working well enough to get email is already running its own AV software. Of course, if you are running a PC Operating System on your iNtel Mac, you will need to use PC AV software just like any PC would.
As for backing up (and any other Mac questions), the first place you should look is in your Mac's Finder > Help > Mac Help. Just search for "backup" without the quotation marks, and your Mac will give you a list of help topics.
Your next source of good info is the "Support" link at the top of this page. This search of Apple's Support pages duplicates many of the same pages that your Mac Help will find, but the web pages may be useful if you are away from or are having problems with your Mac.
Whether you use your Mac's Help or the Support link, you should be backing up all the important files on your Mac as well as you important DVDs. Use your Mac's "Disk Utility" application (located in the Finder > Go > Utilities folder.) When you have launched Disk Utility, click its Help command for more info about making backups with CDs or DVDs.
To duplicate an existing DVD or CD with Disk Utility (versus merely make a file copy), select "DVD/CD master" from the Image Format choices bar when you create the new disk image of the source disk. When a disk image that was created in the "DVD/CD master" format is burned to disk, Disk Utility creates a duplicate of the source disk. Other Image Formats are used for other purposes and offer different advantages such as compression to allow more data to fit on one disk.

Equium A210 - after BIOS update problems signing into MSN Live Messenger

Hi
I have just installed the latest Bios update for my Equium A210, as this was the first time \i have ever attempted this \i watched carefully and all appeared to go correctly but, when the notebook restarted, it beeped and showed a checksum error, I chose the option to restart with 'Default Settings'
Since doing this I have had problems signing into MSN Live Messenger and wondered if this could be something to do with the Bios update, also is it possible to 'go back' to the old Bios somehow?
Thanks
Widdy

Hi there,
your issue is actually not an machine related problem. The "Checksum Error" is normal after every BIOS update since the checksum of the BIOS which consists the the BIOS settings and the BIOS version is not correct due an altered BIOS version.
So, next time you update your BIOS you will get a "BIOS checksum error" again. Dont worry, its nothing serious.
Regarding your Messenger:
1. Uninstall the messenger
2. Download the latest version from the MSN site
3. Install the new one
4. Have fun
GReets ;)

On going Query about MSN/Live Messenger and T-Mobi...

I have this question running on two other boards with no cast iron answer.
Are there any T-mob UK N900 users who can use the MSN plugin for conversation be it Butterfly, Haze or Pecan?
If the answer is yes please let me know so I can rule out that it's my T-Mob account set up incorrectly.
I have a work around at the moment as I'm connnecting via jabber
Thanks

I'm having a great deal of issues trying to access hotmail.co.uk which results in it just timing out. Router restart didn't help. Starting to think there may be a problem somewhere else. Is this happening to anybody else?

The pyOpenSSL works fine with python3 but not with python2.
A pyOpenSSL installation fixed the problem:

Now it works flawlessly!

With Netscape all of the Webcam shots from live feeds were automatically saved in my cache folder and I could simply open my cache send the saved files into AcDsee and convert them into jpgs, It would save as many as I would allow space for. With firefox

I cant retrieve my images from webcams that are cached any more with mozilla. With netscape all of the live webcam images from live cams were automatically saved in my cache folder and all i had to do was open it send the files to acdsee and turn them into jpgs. It would save them untill the Cache ran out of room no matter how many files or sites I had running. Mozilla seems to save what it wants when it wants and often dose not save any that I can retrieve because I believe it is bulking them into Cache 123 or 4 and those i cant open to retrieve the files. Sometimes it saves 100 or so and sometimes 2 or 3 sometimes 10 or more but i don't seem to have any control over what it does or does not save to retrieve no matter how much space i allow for the cache to save.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I finally gave up trying to keep netscape due to all the ridiculess popups and continued reminders from you saying i had to switch over

You have or had an extension installed (Ant.com Toolbar) that has changed the user agent from Firefox/3.6.3 to Firefox/3.0.12.
You can see the Firefox version at the top and the user agent at bottom of the "Help > About" window (Mac: Firefox > About Mozilla Firefox).
You can check the '''general.useragent''' prefs on the '''about:config''' page.
You can open the ''about:config'' page via the location bar, just like you open a website.
Filter: '''general.useragent'''
If ''general.useragent'' prefs are bold (user set) then you can right-click that pref and choose ''Reset''.

Windows Live Messenger/MSN Messenger on iPhone 3G

anyone know how to play Windows Live Messenger or MSN in iPhone 3G? thanks..

There is not a specific Microsoft Messenger app in the App Store (there's an AOL IM client now, for example). There are 3rd party apps that work with MSN chat servers - here are two (both are direct links to the iTunes Store):

Which Msn Messenger app are you using? There are several in the app store. And does it support the iPad's camera? Info on the apps page should state that clearly if it does.

Satellite A300 - inbuilt Chicony webcam won't work with Win Live Messenger

Hello
I just bought a *Satellite A300-1MC* (runs on Vista Home Premium), and downloaded Windows Live Mail And Live Messenger.
The inbuilt webcam won't work with Live Messenger ; and when selecting Tool, Audi + Vieo Setup in Messenger I get thye following message : "We are unable to run Audi Video setup".
The webcam works fine with the Camera Assisant Software.
I have tried : 1) killing the C.A. Software and starting Messenger ; 2) dowanloading a webcam driver from Toshiba website ; 3) Updating Windows Vista
None of the above work.
Any suggestion gladly received.....
Thomas

Hi,
Many thanks for the advice.
I have downloaded and installed ManyCam 2.3, then rebooted.
The ManyCam software works fine, and picks up signal from the inbuild webcam.
But Windows Live Messenger still doesn't pick up the camera. I can not start a Video call or go to" Video Audio setup".
I have Windows Live Messenger version 14.0.8064 (installed on Tuesday).
Funny enough, yahoo messenger works fine : it gets a signal from the webcam.
Conclusion : i think it is Windows Live Messenger that doesn't work properly for some reason.
I have ordered a new external webcam, in the meantime.

How do you to sync your or msn mail and run windows live messenger on 8900????

Hi peeps again, previously i was using E71 and synchronizing msn with E71 is just so easy plus window live messenger was already pre-installed on that device so i didnt have probs with it however when it comes to BB 8900, it so complicated to sync and install software. my 8900 is currently running on v4.6.1.250 (Platform 4.2.0.113)
1) What should i do when my 8900 shows "Service not enabled for this handheld." when trying to launch MSN after typing the password and E-mail address?
2) How to you sync your PERSONAL E-Mail with your blackberry? I've tried using the "E-mail setup" but it only give me one option which is "i want to use a work email account with a blackberry enterprise service"

ITunes & Windows Live Messenger (MSN) - Now Playing Feature.

Hey Guys!
I'm a lover of iTunes over Windows Media Player and made the switch approximately a year and a half ago when I bought my iPod. At first I was upset I would lose the "Now Playing" feature of my Messenger and said the pros were far more beneficial. However after a month or two I noticed that suddenly it worked and all was well...
However, Just recently, I believe when I bought an iPod Nano recently and synced it for the first time. It has stopped working and no longer displays no matter what I've tried... now before you go tell me something you'd tell a noobie, Let me first say... Yes, "Show What I'm Listening To" is checked... and I've tried those stupid little work arounds that make no sense such as the option of iTunes not being minimised to the system tray and Messenger being the main window...
Why did it work before and why did it stop, was it the new iPod syncing causing iTunes to malfunction? I've uninstalled and reinstalled both to no fix... Please help!

Okay... I've solved my issue using a work-around. the iTunes code for broadcasting these things definintely needs to be looked into. Its pretty trivial that syncing an iPod that doesn't have the "manual ejection" option ticked could cause a detrimental issue such as this.
As Hinted, to fix the issue. Make sure the iPod is set to be 'manually ejected' once its finished syncing. This means you will effectively have to eject it yourself using iTunes once you've synced it.
The steps I did was...
*1. Set iPod to be 'manually ejected' once synced and hit apply.*
*2. Sync iPod... again, for good measure.*
*3. Restart the computer.*
*4. Start iTunes with the iPod still connected, Sync it again.*
*5. Open Windows Live Messenger and make sure 'show what im listening to' is ticked.*
*6. Play a song in iTunes and see if it worked.*
*Please post if this helped you.* Im sure a few of those steps like re-syncing aren't neccesary, then again it's "Apple" iTunes so it's best to be safe then sorry.
Currently, the wonderful world of iTunes (7.7) is saying I don't have permission to set it as my default audio player, and im the friggin Admin...
*Bravo! Apple Team, Bravo!*

No contact with MSN Live...

Hi,
Since I updated my MSN Messenger client to the latest available version I have not been able to log in to my MSN Live/hotmail account with ANY application on my mac... Not even with Firefox.
In Windows XP I can access my Live/Hotmail account just fine.
I have tried to search the net but I could only get hints like "clear out all your cookies" and such. These
hints has unfortunately not helped in my case.
Anyone who can help me with this, please!?
Thanks!

I haven't jumped to any conclusions about anyone. But FYI: MAC is a typical newbie term and it doesn't refer to a Macintosh. MAC is an acronym for something completely different. Mac is the registered trademark, and it's never in all caps.
If the problem lies with Microsoft's service or with my OSX does not really make much difference in my log-in success or lack there of, now does it?
Actually, it makes all the difference. Microsoft likes to make it difficult or impossible for anyone but Windoze users to use any service of theirs; the evidence (and felony antitrust convictions) are proof of that.
I tried logging in to Hotmail with Safari, Firefox 3.x and Camino 1.6+ and had no problem just a few minutes ago. According to MS, Messenger for Mac 7 is for corporate users who are running Office Communications Server 2007, so if you're trying to send messages to co-workers and your company isn't running that server software, that would probably explain why it doesn't work, although if you've used it before and it worked, that would be very odd. Have you used Messenger before to send these messages, or did you just recently download it and try to use it?
