Video chatting is NOT working.. please HELP!

alright, this is driving me CRAZY!
my firewall is off on my mac and my router. all my ports are open 1-65535. this is driving me nuts.. why isn't video chatting working??!!? i am using leopard.

Ahh Comcast.
Go to iChat > Preferences > Video section and adjust the Bandwidth to 500k
Try 200 if this does not work.
The System Preferences > Quicktime Streaming should still be set at 1.5mb to get the best out of the connection (the Automatic returns only 384k to iChat)
Is this a MIMO device ?
Not good with iChat.
Are you sure you have the Model number correct ?

How are the ports opened anyway ?
is the Blocking of internet pings turned off in the Security tab/page
Are you using UPnP to open the ports ?

  • My Video chat is not working with messages.

    When someone tries to send me an invite for a video chat the green light shows up but I do not receive and invitation window to accept it.
    I am using an aim account on messages and my server settings are api.oscar.aol.com, port 443, and use SSL is checked.
    In connection doctor is says my router type is port restricted and that "This computer's network setup includes one or more devices that are not fully compatible with audio and video chatting. I am not sure if this is the reason my video chat is not working.
    If anyone can help me please let me know.

    Hi,
    Most routers can be accessed via  Web Browser.
    The IP shown in System Preferences > Network > Advanced Button > TCP/IP tab in the "Router IP" box is generally the one to use.
    You also tend to need a User ID and Password.
    Apple Base Stations are different in that they have an App in the Utilities folder that accesses the set up screens.
    Your router can have different methods of opening the ports.
    Port Forwarding
    This tends to be the oldest of the methods.
    Essentially you point a port to an IP (computer) to allow it.
    A collection of ports may need to be entered one by one.
    Once set up, only that computer can use those ports.
    Port Triggering
    This cuts down the number of ports set to be Open as it involves "listening" ports that then open further ports
    iChat/Messages needs some ports to be open all the time and you set these a bit like Port Forwarding but with listing the IP to send the data to.
    The A/V side can have a listening port (port 5678 for the Visible part of the Invite)
    The advantage is that multiple computers can use the same ports.
    DMZ (Demilitarised Zone)
    This is an ON or Off setting (Enable/Disable)
    It opens all the port (65535 of them) to one IP (i.e only one computer can use this.)
    It is sort of like Port Forwarding Extreme
    UPnP (Universal Plug 'n' Play)
    A setting that allows the App to tell the router which ports to open.
    This means the router can carry on doing DHCP and multiple computer can use the ports involved.
    Where these setting are varies at least as much as there are manufacturers.
    This is  Linksys Port Forwarding (the arrows above the pic show the Others  (it does not show DMZ)

  • I backed up my Iphone to itunes so i can do the new Update to IOs 7 and so now that i updated it i want to backup and restore and its not working, Please help!

    I backed up my Iphone to itunes so i can do the new Update to IOs 7 and so now that i updated it i want to backup and restore and its not working, Please help!

    An iPhone backup to a computer via iTunes stores the photos in a backup file that is only meant to be be used if needed to restore back to the phone. There is 3rd party "extractor" software available but otherwise the photos are not directly viewable.
    The backup via iTunes was a good idea and your Camera Roll photos should be there and should be able to be restored to your new phone. However if it was me I wouldn't rely on that alone. I would also import the photos to a computer where you can see and verify that you have a copy. That is a good idea at any time (not just when you know you might need it). Any phone can be lost, broken, suffer hardware issues, etc at any time and lose all data on it. Following is a link with information on how to import the photos to a computer:  Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC - Apple Support

  • I have 4s iPhone , I download the iOS 7. Now the front receiver microphone is not working , please help me that how to fix the problem.

    I have 4s iPhone , I download the iOS 7. Now the front receiver microphone is not working , please help me that how to fix the problem.

    I live in South Africa, and I had the same problem with my iPhone 4.
    After weeks of frustration and swearing, I was in the process of restoring my phone to a previous iOS. To do that you need to turn the "Find my iPhone" option off, since i turned it off, my problem was solved. No need to repair anything or revert back to old iOS.
    ***** that i cant use Find my iPhone, but atleast i can use my phone.

    If you are running Lion or Mountain Lion, the drivers are downloaded from within Bootcamp Assistant. If you are running Snow Leopard the drivers are on your Snow Leopard install disk.
    Read the Bootcamp Install Guide for your version of OSx. http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/
    Bootcamp questions should be asked in the Bootcamp forum where the Bootcamp gurus hang out https://discussions.apple.com/community/windows_software/boot_camp

    while updating 4.0 version to 5 version system shows sim card is not valid. My iphone is not working .Please help me

    I would imagine your iPhone was hacked to make it work on your local carrier.
    Updating the iOs to 5.xx will lock it back to the original carrier .The carrier holding the lock are the only
    entity able to authorise the unlock .You will have to contact them and see if they unlock and the terms the apply

    the built-in mic in g50 122ca laptop model is not working. please help me out. OS: Windows Vista (32-bit)

    here is a sample code .
    so far you procedure looks good but
    i bet you have to specify the name of report , instead of 'filename'.
    see this
    Plist_id := GET_PARAMETER_LIST('P_name');
    IF NOT ID_NULL(Plist_id) THEN
    DESTROY_PARAMETER_LIST(Plist_id);
    END IF;
    Plist_id := CREATE_PARAMETER_LIST('P_name');
    ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Receive_date', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Receive_date,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
    ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Hearing_date', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Hearing_date,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
    ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Hearing_time', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Hearing_time,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
    ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Issue_date', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Issue_date,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
    ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Workshop_date', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Workshop_date,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
    -- RUN_PRODCT(REPORTS,'..\Reports\Pro_License',SYNCHRONOUS, RUNTIME, FILESYSTEM, Plist_id, NULL);
    -- here Pro_License is the name of report.
    did you tried to see if the parameter passed using a message ?
    try
    message('parameter name'); pause; write this before "run_report".
