TS4196 Anyone else having problems with messages beta not detecting facetime hd camera?

I searched the web , but couldn't find anyone else with the problem I am having , I'm using a 2.4 GHz i5 macbook pro , downloaded the beta for messages but lost facetime camera it displays this message (This computer does not support video chats.) i just can't get it to work properly with messages.
Thanks in advance.

HI,
As I intimated Messages can either Invoke FaceTime for Video Chats with those people (Contacts) that you can iMessage.
It can also do the iChat Video.
If your Buddies only have iChat then you have to have a Screen Name if you don't already have one.
I will state this another way as well.
In Messages beta menu > Preferences > Accounts you have at least two "Accounts" once you have entered your Apple ID
One of these is the Bonjour option (Runs a Buddy list like iChat used to - see Window Menu if Logged in)
The other is the iMessage account (your Apple ID)
It is possible that your also have some iChat Accounts from before and these may be listed.
They could be AIM or Jabber Logins (And both those type are effectively sub-divided)
If you do have other Accounts and they have the tick box in "Enable this Account" then they will appear in the Window Menu as a list with Keystroke listed next to them.
These can be used to dispaly the Buddy Lists much like iChat.
By default though they care gathered in to one list (See the Preferences > General Section for Unlinking them)
@mac.com and @me.com ending names from Apple are valid AIM login names (Some people may find an MobileMe issued @me.com account does not work if it has run out).
Facebook and Google Mail IDs are valid Jabber IDs (Providing you enable the "Talk" or "Chat" option in the relevant Account Settings.
If your Buddy logs into AIM with their Valid name then you should use a AIM valid name.
If they use a Jabber valid name then you use a Jabber valid name.

Is anyone else having problems with App Store not processing updates?

For last 36 hours, App Store is not processing updates. Rebooted, and hard rebooted. Tried tapping on apps to force a download, from the Purchased list and the home screen. Ipad also will not access new 8.1 version today. Any suggestions?

The iTunes and Mac App Store / iCloud problem spontaneously resolved for me as of 21:54 Pacific Standard Time on 9/30/2012.
Someone at Apple was aware of and fixed the problem. Finally.
Yeah!

Anyone else having problems with NFS mounts not showing up?

Since Lion, cannot see NFS shares anymore. Folder that had them is still threre but the share will not mount. Worked fine in 10.6.
nfs://192.168.1.234/volume1/video
/Volumes/DiskStation/video
resvport,nolocks,locallocks,intr,soft,wsize=32768,rsize=3276
Any ideas?
Thanks

Since the NFS points show up in the terminal app, go to the local mount directory (i.e. the mount location in the NFS Mounts using Disk Utility) and do the following:
First Create a Link file
sudo ln -s full_local_path link_path_name
sudo ln -s /Volumes/linux/projects/ linuxProjects
Next Create a new directory say in the Root of the Host Drive (i.e. Macintosh HDD)
sudo mkdir new_link_storage_directory
sudo mkdir /Volumes/Macintosh\ HDD/Links
Copy the Above Link file to the new directory
sudo mv link_path_name new_link_storage_directory
sudo mv linuxProjects /Volumes/Macintosh\ HDD/Links/
Then in Finder locate the NEW_LINK_STORAGE_DIRECTORY and then the link file should allow opening of these NFS point points.
Finally, after all links have been created and placed into the NEW..DIRECTORY, Place it into the left sidebar. Now it works just like before.

Is anyone else having problems with the Canon Online Store?

In the last month or so, I've had one problem after another with the Canon Online Store; from being unable to delete items from the shopping cart; to not being able to add "in stock" items; disappearing Wish Lists; and just now, I tried to add one lens cap to the 6 or 7 items I already had in the Shopping Cart, and they disappeared.
I've called, more than once, and I've written, also more than once, to Canon Support about this, but they ignore what I tell them, and tell me there are no problems with the Online Store. They don't even seem to report to anyone that anyone has complained, because each time is "the first time", even though I've called (more than once) and written (more than once) to them about continuing Online Stores problems.
Is anyone else having problems with the Canon Online Store?
Why does Canon not care to track reported problems with the storefront part of their web-site?
I'm not trying to insult Canon, it's just that I've been a Canon customer for less than 3 months, and the're only batting .333, so far. Canon Support was very quick to respond about a concern I had that a 50mm f/1.4 I had just purchased was authentic or not. In trying to register that lens, I looked up on the Canon web site where to find the serial number. Since my new lens did not have any numbers there, I was concerned I had been sold a fake. But, then Canon Support sent me link to a different online document that showed a few different places where it might be, and there it was.
Is Canon like that with other problems, as well? Or is their "batting" average better than my very limited experience?
I just love my Rebel T5i, and my Canon lenses (from "the Kit brothers of the Cropped Frame coral": EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM, and EF-S 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM; to the "Truly Nifty Fifty", the 50mm f/1.4 USM, [the f/1.8 is just a "thrifty fifty"], and finally, the "Super-Macro" MP-E 65mm f/2.8 1x-5x Macro)!
Regards and Thanks,

Hi Danny. Thanks for replying.
I only use my desktop PC to access Canon's web site, and I've been using Mozilla Firefox for years. And, yes, it is the latest version. Since Canon REFUSES to support the use of Firefox on it's web site, WHAT BROWSER DOES CANON SUPPORT? WHEN did Canon STOP SUPPORTING Firefox?
I've been told that there are 2 pending orders in my account. Yet, I NEVER placed those orders! WHY CAN'T CANON SEE THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM???
Instead of off-target suggestions, and pasted boilerplate REFUSALS TO EVEN LOOK at this issue, I would prefer it if Canon went "old school", and FIXED THE PROBLEM, in the first place! But, maybe that's a bit too grown up of an answer for you!
"Award-winning" support??? And, just exactly WHAT AWARD did Canon "support" WIN for CONSISTANTLY IGNORING REPORTED PROBLEMS??? The OSTRICH?
Please pull your head out, and FIX this problem, OR YOU ARE THE PROBLEM!!!
Thank you for your "prompt" attention to this matter!

Is Anyone else having problems with their I MAC 24" Foggy display?

Is anyone else having problems with their I MAC 24" having a foggy display in lower right hand corner after the computer has been on for 30 or 45 min? This is now the 2nd computer that has this same problem. Just wondering if anyone else is having this issue with the IMAC 24"? Does anyone know what might be the cause? I have only had the computer for a month. Thanks very much.

Thank you for the nice welcome.
Sorry about posting in the wrong area I found the correct discussion board. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7998535#7998535
Its seems that I am not alone in my problem but I do have good news to report that apple support has acknowledged the issue is happening and a fix is in the works. The support and assistance I received today helped greatly to restore my faith in apple product satisfaction.
Lets hope you don't have this experience in the future, hopefully a solution can be reached that is in everyone best interest. I may have to drive a greater distance to another apple store but for myself and others like me feel its worth the extra effort to get better customer service in the long run.

Is anyone else having problems with syncing your phone & iPad since the last update?

is anyone else having problems with syncing your phone & iPad since the last update?

Here's the problems I'm having with iPad 2 and iOS 5.1:
Okay ... so, because I had less than a 1 Gig left (as reported by iTunes) on my 64Gig iPad, and the majority of the space was being used by "Photos" ... I decided to not keep my PC photos directory in sync with my iPad (Windows 7). So, in iTunes, I unchecked the option to sync computer photos to the iPad. I got the standard popup warning message that my iPad would not contain those albums after the next sync. I clicked OK and proceeded to sync expecting to have lots of space freed up.
But weird things happened after syncing.
(1) I still have all my photos on my iPad .... nothing disappeared at all. (And performed multiple syncs to try to force the change ... still nothing has been removed from my iPad.)
(2) Somehow, I gained 20 Gigs of free space, as reported by both iTunes and my iPad as well.
Anyone know what's going on here?
I do have iMovie and another movie making app, Avid. Both of these contain projects that refer to photos in albums that were supposed to be removed after the sync ... but I can't imagine that would keep them there. Anyone have any ideas?
I also installed the iPad app, iPhoto. I noticed that it build a directory listing and continuously want to update that listing from time to time.
Would any of these things cause the iTunes photo sync changes to be ignored? And, how did I get free space to report back with an additional 19Gig or so, when there's no change at all.
Unsure what's going on ...

Is Anyone Else Having Problems With 10.6.1 Freezing?

Is anyone else having problems with iTunes 10.6.1 freezing? On a perfectly-maintained Windows PC, 10.6.1 is suddenly freezing for no reason. This means that my iPhone or iPad can't be synchronized.

From my experience, involving three hours of troubleshooting using Apple's tutorials, without help from Apple:
1. Do the steps here to remove and reinstall all Apple software on your machine, "Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP," at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925.
2. If you care, they don't tell you or ask you to uninstall MobileMe in those steps.
3. After I did as they wrote to do, iTunes wouldn't recognize either my iPhone or iPad. On my own I found that Applie's software reinstallation failed to install the Apple Mobile Device Software Driver. So I followed the steps at, "iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows," which took me 25 minutes alone to find. See http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
Those steps solved everything and iTunes is now back to normal.

Anyone else having problems with popups since the new security upgrade? can't get rid of them

anyone else having problems with popups since the new security upgrade? can't get rid of them

You may have inadvertently installed adware. You do not need to download or install anything to fix it. It ought not to be related to any Apple security update.
For a description of how this may have occurred, how to avoid it in the future, and for Apple's recommended actions read How to install adware. Apple's instructions are linked in the Recovery Procedure near the end of that document. Read and follow them carefully. Pay particular attention to the easily overlooked passages directing you to restart your Mac when required.

Is anyone else having problems with safari crashing?

Is anyone else having problems with the iphone 3GS freezing, and in particular, Safari and anything else that relies on the internet crashing since the 4.3.2 update? Everytime I open safari it crashes within 10 seconds. I've tried restoring the phone but that hasn't worked. Any other suggestions?

The exact same thing happened to me. On the recommendation of various news articles, I manually upgraded the Flash Player plug-in from 10.0.23.1 to 10.0.32.18. Initially, I had no problems, but when I started viewing ESPN Flash-based videos, the entire browser would hang (this was true of Safari, Firefox, and Opera - all of which I tried and had the most updated version of). I then force quit and rebooted. After I rebooted, the problems disappeared for a while, but after some more browsing, I encountered the same problem with any page containing flash. I turned off the Flash plug-in in Firefox and I've had no problems so far. So I know for sure that it's a Flash problem.
I tried to uninstall Flash and downgrade, but I couldn't find any previous versions of the Flash player plug-in. I did find some experimental builds, but they still crashed all three browsers.
Flash is pretty miserable. If I didn't have to use it to watch ESPN videos, I would have no purpose in using Flash at all.

Is anyone else having problems with voicemail displaying number of messages in box?

My phone displays missed calls but never that a voicemail was left. I have to dial in to hear messages. Anyone else having this issue? I am 4s with ATT.

Okay, Just off the phone with ATT. The visual voicemail server is down and has been down for a couple of days. In order for them to respond and escalate an issue a certain number of clients need to be affected. That happened at 950am yesterday morning. According to the gentlemen I spoke with, they have no idea when it will be repaired. He did offer a monetary compensation for the inconvenience.
