Using iSight internationally

I recently bought 2 iSight cameras (I was convinced to buy them after seeing the impressive display in the store). The purpose was to find a relatively inexpensive way of talking to my boyfriend who lives in Peru. I purchased two, but as he does not have his yet, I tried to invite him to a one-way video chat. The connection kept "timing-out" and he was unable to click accept. He also has a PowerBook G4. Audio chats also do not work for us on iChat.
Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this, or if another system would be better?
Thanks!
P. Silverman

Hi P. Silverman,
Welcome to the Apple Discussions
What have you done to allow iChat to work through your modems ?

What Internet connection speeds do you both have, both up and down ?

  • HT1948 Does the macbook use the internal harddrive when booting from usb and when fully booted?

    I wonder if the Macbook Air uses the internal SSD drive when booting Mac OSX lion 10.8.2 from a bootable USB stick?
    I am suspecting the internal harddrive is faulty because it gives me random system freeze ups during normal use, making me hold the power button to shut it down. So I'm wondering if I boot my macbook from a bootable USB, if the internal drive is used for caching or anything?

    What i'm doing when it freezes is totally random. I am not having any programs open, but for example just clicking on the apple icon or starting up safari, there seems to be no specific program that crashes it. I'm still running without a freeze up after I fixed the drive permissions with Disk Utility. But here is Etrecheck;

  • How can I use an international credit card when I bought my iPad in china and currently a residence of china?

    I want to purchase apps and because I reside in CHina the options for payment are Chinese banks and yet I hold an international credit card. I want to pay for my apps and unfortunately because I am not a Chinese citizen, I don't hold a local credit card but debit cards, does it mean I can't use my international British bank credit card to buy apps in China, as I also bought my IPad in China. The prompts for payment don't give me an option of international banks, but local Chinese. Please help me as I would love to have freedom to use my IPad and be able to purchase apps I want.

  • How can i use isight camera to broadcast to web with Mac OS 10.4?

    I am using an iBook G4 running OS 10.4 as a printer server.  I have to do this to be able to print on my HP DeskJet 882c printer from computers running OS 10.6 and above (although I have not been able to get it to work with 10.8).
    I can connect an iSight camera to the iBook via FireWire.  Can I set that up to broadcast a video feed to a web site so I can visually monitor the area near the laptop and printer?

    jrmnewtonma wrote: How can i use isight camera to broadcast to web with Mac OS 10.4?
    You could use compatible older versions of QuickTime professional extensions for your Mac OS X version.
    This professional quality software is very powerful, and it will certainly stream any video you need.  However, it is not simple to use, so be prepared to do some research and study to get it configured and working.
    To use your iBook with its OS X 10.4, you will need QuickTime Broadcaster 1.5.3 
    and Darwin Streaming Server (v5.5.5) (if you need streaming server functions.) 
    Although I have never used it, QuickTime Streaming Server 4.1.1 might be a useable substitute for Darwin.

  • How to populate field catalogue fields in ALV using  dynamic internal table

    Hi All,
    Please let me know how to populate field catalogue fields in ALV using  dynamic internal table.
    I have created <dyn_table> using code below.
    CALL METHOD cl_alv_table_create=>create_dynamic_table
                     EXPORTING
                       it_fieldcatalog = g_t_ifc
                        it_fieldcatalog = g_t_fieldcat
                     IMPORTING
                        ep_table        = dy_table.
      ASSIGN dy_table->* TO <dyn_table>.
    Create dynamic work area and assign to FS
      CREATE DATA dy_line LIKE LINE OF <dyn_table>.
      ASSIGN dy_line->* TO <dyn_wa>.
    Now this  <dyn_table>  has fields like idoc no.,creation date ,
    segment field 1, segment field 2 etc..Now idoc no.,creation date  are static fields from table EDIDC. And segment field 1, segment field 2 etc are dynamic fields from table EDSAPPL.
    In my  ALV report I am getting the final layout properly but I am unable to move values to corresponding fields in the final layout shown.Please let me know how to populate these fields from different tables.
    I tried this way but its not working.
    SORT g_t_edid4 BY docnum.
      LOOP AT g_t_edidc INTO g_r_edidc.
        READ TABLE g_t_edid4 into g_r_edid4
                         WITH KEY docnum = g_r_edidc-docnum
                                        BINARY SEARCH.
        IF sy-subrc = 0.
          <dyn_wa> =  g_r_edid4-sdata.
         MOVE-CORRESPONDING g_r_edid4 to <dyn_wa>.
       CLEAR g_r_edid4.
        ENDIF.
    MOVE-CORRESPONDING g_r_edidc to <dyn_wa>.
    APPEND <dyn_wa> TO <dyn_table>.

    You have to assign each field to field symbol and then assign the value to that field symbol and asssign that field symbol to workarea field symbol.
    LOOP AT g_t_edidc INTO g_r_edidc.
    READ TABLE g_t_edid4 into g_r_edid4
    WITH KEY docnum = g_r_edidc-docnum
    BINARY SEARCH.
    IF sy-subrc = 0.
    ASSIGN COMPONENT 'SDATA' OF STRUCTURE <DYN_WA> TO <DYN_FLD>.
    <DYN_FLD> = g_r_edid4-sdata.
    " <dyn_wa> = g_r_edid4-sdata.
    " Assign each fields like this.
    " MOVE-CORRESPONDING g_r_edid4 to <dyn_wa>.
    CLEAR g_r_edid4.
    ENDIF.
    " MOVE-CORRESPONDING g_r_edidc to <dyn_wa>.
    APPEND <dyn_wa> TO <dyn_table>.

  • What is the best way to use 2 internal Hard Drives in a laptop.

    Looking for info on the best way (ease of filing, speed and efficiency) to use 2 internal hard drives in my laptop (OS and apps on one and Data on the other?) while using an ext. drive for back up and such.
    Thanks for any info.

    thanks for your help, I want to do the right thing, and I have thought about moving the files back to the c drive by 'importing' and just start over. But is there an easier way. I was wondering about using the 'add folder to library' function. Since all the music is now on my ext. drive.

  • When I try to use the internal hard drive as a scratch disk I get this error "unable to set scratch disk- the selected directory is on write protect or non-writable media.  Any ideas on how to fix this.  It only happens in fcp.

    By internal, I assume you're referring to your systems (boot) drive. Is it, by chance, a partitioned dive?
    Also…although many people successfully use their systems drives as scratch disks, over time you'll have better results using a dedicated drive for your media.
    Good luck.

  • Using the internal drive on a Macbook Pro or not?

    I am having one external esata disk and two seperate FW800 disk. Where should i put my scratch files? On the internal disk? Should I avoid using the internal disk for a video stream and leave it to accessing the system and Final Cut Pro (6.06) only or can it come into other use as well?
    The setup is a MBPro 2.4 Ghz with 4GB of ram.

    On my 17" MacBook Pro I use the eSata port for Black X Duet Hard Drive Docking station where I put 2 1TB Hitachi internal drives. They are swappable and are about $80.00US. I use the USB port for my system backup and a G-force 500 MB bus powered portable drive on the FW800 port just for the heck of it. It works out really well for me.

  • 10.5.8 to 10.6  Can I use an internal SATA drive in my MacPro for back up..

    10.5.8 to 10.6 Can I use an INTERNAL SATA drive in my MacPro for back up..
    or must I use an External hard dive.
    I prefer to use an internal for anti "desk-clutter" purposes. I am looking
    at a 2TB drive to install into my Mac Pro tower for the purpose of back up
    and time machine i guess.
    Also.. if doing a clean install of 10.6 how do i restore the backed up apps
    without re-registering all of them?

    A clone is a functional copy of the original, including the internal links & setting that makes it bootable if the original is. Time Machine will not make a clone of a volume, nor will a Finder copy. You can make a clone with the appropriate settings in the "Restore" tab of Disk Utility but many users find purpose-designed cloning utilities easier & simpler to use. The two most popular of these are SuperDuper! & Carbon Copy Cloner. Both are very reliable, easy to use, & well documented.
    I prefer SuperDuper! for reasons that are not important here. However, even if you decide to use CCC, I suggest that you download SuperDuper! just to read the extensive documentation that comes with it.

  • Use of internal table with hearerline in ABAP OO

    Hi,
    I have a very basic question regarding the use of Internal table with headerline in ABAP OO.
    I consider the concept of Internal table with header as one of the most features of ABAP, which is not there in any of the other porgramming languages.
    I accept that OO's concept is one of the most powerful and a very good concept. We should also implement OO's concept in ABAP.
    But my concern is why in the process of moving to OO's the concept of Internal table with headerline is no more used.
    Can any one tell me the main reason for this. Is there any technical reason for this. By this i mean anything to do with memory or effeciency.
    Thanx,
    Srinivas

    Hi Srinivas,
       here is something more which i found about the same
    follow this link
    https://sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/5ac31178-0701-0010-469a-b4d7fa2721ca
    and search for header line.
    it says:
    Tables with header lines not allowed
    Only tables without header lines can be declared in ABAP Objects.
    Error message in ABAP Objects if the following syntax is used:
    DATA itab TYPE LIKE TABLE OF ... WITH HEADER LINE.
    Correct syntax:
    DATA: itab TYPE LIKE TABLE OF ... ,
    wa LIKE LINE OF itab.
    Reason:
    It depends on the statement whether the body or header line of a table is accessed. The table name should identify the table uniquely. Programs are easier to read. Tables with header lines do not improve performance.
    i hope this will help you.
    regards,

    Digital audio input via mini jack/toslink from ADA converter, monitored via USB audio output to amplifier... is this do-able? I know digital audio input should be okay but how do I monitor it, apart from using the internal speakers?

    You can output audio thru HDMI, with appropriate adapter.
    You can use additional cheap external usb audio for monitoring.

  • The last few times I've used headphones in my iPad, the audio has been all messed up to the extent where it's better to just use the internal speakers and not the headphones. I've tried multiple pairs of headphones to no avail. Help?

    The last few times I've used headphones in my iPad, the audio has been all messed up to the extent where it's better to just use the internal speakers and not the headphones. I've tried multiple pairs of headphones to no avail.
    The iPad was bought in mid-June, but I did not get extended Apple-Care warranty on it. Any idea of what's happenening?

    Multiple means how many? If only 2 or 3, they could all be faulty. Try the headphones in some other device, to make sure they are OK. Or there could be something wrong with the headphone port.
    Your iPad is still covered by the 1-year warranty so you should make a Genius appointment and have it looked at.
    Another thing to try is to plug in the headphone jack a few times in succession to see if it frees up something inside the port.

    Select a folder on your external drive as the destination.
    You can also get to this panel by holding down the alt/options key when you launch iPhoto.
