  • Won't allow multiple buddy video chats on my macbook pro

    I have macbook pro, iChat AV 3.1.8 and I can video chat no problem but i can't start or join multiple
    (3 way) video chats. So I can only ever do one to one.
    What is wrong?
    Help please.

    Hi
    Hi
    First have you set the Quicktime streaming setting, goto sys prefs/quicktime/streaming/streaming speed, set to 1.5mbps(dont use automatic)
    In ichats prefs click on video and change bandwidth limit to NONE.
    Restart iChat.
    Do a speedtest and tell us the upload and download speeds http://www.speedtest.net/

  • Video died on my MacBook Pro, question on Time Machine

    Hi -
    The video died on my MacBook Pro (2007 - after some research I see there was a recall on it due to a manufacturer's defect). I hadn't backed up in a few months - so would like to back it up before I take the computer into the store. I have mounted the MacBook Pro on another computer by pressing Option + Power and all seems fine on the hard drive. I did try to run Time Machine though, and the computer doesn't seem to recognize that it has backed up on this same drive previously - it wants to back up the entire computer. Is there a way for the MacBook Pro to recognize the firewire drive and run Time Machine as it did before? I am running  OS 10.6.8
    Thank you!

    I had done that as well (used Carbon Copy Cloner too! ) but I was concerned in the case I had to buy a new computer with a later OS (and being unable to mount the old drive/OS on the new computer to transfer the data - I ran into that issue earlier) - but I see now there is also a Migration Assistant that can help with that if I do indeed have to buy a new machine. Thank you!

  • When I insert the usb of my Elgato Video Capture into my Macbook Pro, it says 'USB Devices Disabled'? What does this mean and how can I solve it?

    I've partitoned Windows swell and it says the same thing? I'm trying to live capture from my Sony Camcorder through Elgato but I just get the above message?

    This means that the backups were made with a later version than the version currently on the phone. You will have to update the phone to 6.1.3 to be able to restore the backup. You can restore a backup made with an earlier version, but not with a later version.

  • 128 MB video ram on a macbook pro - enough to drive the new 30"?

    128 MB video ram on a macbook pro - enough to drive the new 30"?
    meaning, can it do this well???

    Even 16 MB VRAM would be enough to display a 2D picture on the 30".
    Depending on 3D usage you need much VRAM.
    Unless you are using a lot of the latest 3D games or Apples 3D pro apps (Motion/Shake or something like that) 128 MB should be fine.

  • I'm struggling to move video clips from my macbook pro to my ipad. a few play but most won't go over in the sync. What format do I need to clips to be in?

    Greetings. I'm attempting to sync video clips from my macbook pro to my ipad 2 without much success.  A few videos go over and the rest can't. What format do they need to be in?  Thanks for any help you can give.  JWA

    QuickTime Pro costs a few buck but is a good tool to have on hand as it can open and transcode a wide variety of video and audio formats.
    It's like a Swiss Army knife for media files.

  • Is it true that in order to use the continuity in Yosemite you must have a Macbook Pro newer than 2013?

    Is it true that in order to use the continuity in Yosemite you must have a Macbook Pro newer than 2013?

    from a third-party site:
    In addition to Yosemite, iOS 8.1 and a carrier tethering plan, Instant Hotspot will require an iPhone 5 or newer; a mid-2012 or newer MacBook Air or MacBook Pro; an iMac or Mac mini made since late 2012; or a late 2013 Mac Pro. Instant Hotspot can also be shared from an iPhone with a fourth-generation iPad or newer, any iPad mini model, or a fifth-generation iPod touch.

    It should not be a problem unless you are generating a lot of heat with many resource intensive applications.

  • I downloaded a web site isytd video downloader on my macbook pro, to download videos. but it didnt  work , so I removed the softwear from my mac, even I removed it the download sign appears on the left top of my video screen,  so I want to remove this

    I downloaded a web site isytd video downloader on my macbook pro, to download videos. but it didnt  work , so I removed the softwear from my mac, even I removed it the download sign appears on the left top of my video screen,  so I want to remove this download sign. How can I get this done? Please help me.

    Many apps are not completely removed if the .app file is trashed (which is what I believe you've done so far).
    If you don't want to dig through the system to manually remove library files, I recommend the use of AppCleaner, which does the job for you.

  • Video scrabbled on 15" Macbook Pro made in 2009

    I see that Mac is offering money back on video cards that went bad on 2007 and 2008 video graphic cards, but I took my out of warranty Macbook Pro 15 in. to the Apple Store and the woman said we did not fall under the dates Apple approved for the money back for the repairs. Just wondering if anyone else is having this scrabbled video issue with there Macbook Pro?

    They only hooked it up to a external monitor and the Macbook Pro never had a issue. But when we started the Macbook Pro up the woman saw the vidoe get distorted and flicker and then it never showed any signs of a problem after that while we were at the apple store, she told us to send it away and they would fix anything wrong for a flat rate of 300 dollars. Not sure I am ready to fork out that money until I research this problem further. The macbook is well taken care of and it passed the TechTool Deluxe Tests just fine. Now a week later is acting up again with the scrabbled screen issues. Not sure if heat as anything to do with it?
