Yahoo messenger voice chat - in desperate help

anyone be able to help me how come my yahoo voice conversation is no longer working. It seems that I can't make outgoing and receive in coming. This feature was working fine until Thursday nite. Any help is appreciated. I have tried deleting and reloading yahoo messenger and still the issue persist.

HI,
We need a profile to better help you. Which Mac, which Mac OS X (exact version numbers).
Go to My Settings on the right side of this page. Fill in the information, scroll down and click Save.
Thanks!
As for Yahoo. See if you can locate an associated preference file. Go to...
Users/YourName/Library/Preferences. Look in the Preferences folder for a file similar to this.
com.yahoo.plist that's probably not the exact wording but it's close. If you find it, drag that file to the Trash, empty the Trash and restart your Mac.
See if that helps. If not... download and install Leopard Cache Cleaner. http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/systemdiskutilities/leopardcachecleaner.html
Launch LCacheCleaner. Click the Maintain tab and select Repair Permissions and Run Maintenance Scripts. Quit LCacheCleaner and try Yahoo Messenger.

Yahoo messenger voice chat stopped working (after archive & install)

I have an iMac5 Intel Core 2 Duo 2.16 GHz. I (actually my wife) was using Yahoo Messenger v3.0 beta 4 (built 156957) for all chat and voice chat. About 2 months ago voice chat stopped working. when i send invite, it keeps ringing (but the receiver never sees any invite). When the other person sends me an invite, I don't get anything.
I have downloaded Gizmo, but it also keeps "connecting...".
About 2 months ago, I had to archive and install to solve a Java update issue which was causing wierd problems. Thanks to BDAqua's advice I managed to resolve that. I have J2SE 1.4.2 and 5.0; everything else is working fine.
What can cause voice chat to stop working? Is there some vc plugin in library that needs to be there, which has disappearted after my "archive and install'? Please advise. thanks Fahd

Hi again Fahdali,
Have you tried reinstalling it since then?

When I use Yahoo Messenger video chat the keyboard disappears

When I am using Yahoo Messenger the text chat back and forth works fine, but when someone sends me their cam I get a great picture, but the keyboard disappears, so I can't type anything. Is this normal? Do I have to buy the Apple Keyboard? Thx!
P.S. I am using an ipad mini wifi only.

More likely a yahoo issue and not apple, since you are using a 3rd party app. Suggest contact the app developer or visit their support forum, or read the reviews and see if other users are having the same problems.

Voice chat on imac

Hi~~~my yahoo messenger voice chat has been cutting out and not sure why---is this a common thing with yahoo or is this maybe a imac issue ???

Hi Joni2b,
Welcome to the Apple Discussions
Any Firewire DV output (6 pin to 6pin) Camcorder
Any Firewire Web cam
Any USB cam that has Mac drivers and this Utility http://www.ecamm.com/mac/ichatusbcam/
The chances are that any USB cam is going to have Windows drivers (if you need them for a Intel)
Logitec and iMage seem to be offered up as choices at the moment.
A Camcorder is likely to work as Mic as well others may need a separate Mic. Use USB

Need help with Yahoo Messenger for iMac webcam chat

I'm trying to use Yahoo messenger webcam chat on my iMac. The camera works, but no one can hear me. My mic works with Facetime and Skype. What do I need to change? Thanks?

Yes it does. There are only two selections and I've tried each of them to no avail. Is what I'm asking even possible on the Mac? I've tried with a few different people and it's always the same problem: Great picture, no sound. Facetime and Skype work great, I'm just having problems with Messenger. It's version 3.0.1 beta. Perhaps that feature just doesn't work in Mac?
Thanks for responding! I was worried I'd asked a stupid question!

How to Voice Chat on Google Talk with IChat

I am a new mac user, started using just yesterday. I need some help to configure my IChat for Google talk. I managed to configure ichat to do normal text chat thru the settings in google's website. but i am unable to do voice chat. i need help coz google talk is one application that i use extensively..

Gizmo (http://www.gizmoproject.com) allows you to by using a proxy to convert SIP to Jingle. It also does the same thing for Yahoo! Messenger and Windows Live/MSN Messenger users. I've no idea how well it works though.
We'll have to wait until Leopard's released before we know whether Apple has added Jingle support to iChat. If they have you'll be able to do audio (and possibly video) with Gtalk users natively. I wouldn't count on Apple doing this though.

Yahoo Messenger Contact web cam too small

**** all,
I got Yahoo Messenger working thanks to the help I received here. Now my next question is: The contact's web cam (what I see) is very small and I don't see a way to enlarge it. Does anyone know how to maximize this view? Is this an Apple issue? My contact can maximize my view on their PC.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
Don
Sorry, I don't know how to add points

I found http://gyachi.sourceforge.net/ and I attempting to compile, however, I receive the error:
checking for GTKHTML... configure: error: Package requirements (libgtkhtml-2.0 >= 2.0) were not met:
No package 'libgtkhtml-2.0' found
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.
Alternatively, you may set the environment variables GTKHTML_CFLAGS
and GTKHTML_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
I have libgtkhtml-2.6.3-2 and it seems to be located in /opt/gnome/include/gtkhtml-2.0/libgtkhtml . Does anyone have any suggestions on getting this to compile or how to edit the PKG_CONFIG_PATH ? I attempted GTKHTML_LIBS=/opt/gnome/include/gtkhtml-2.0/libgtkhtml but I still receive the same error.
Thank you.

Duriong Voice Chat Voice is not Receiving from Creative Sound Card but going correct

Hi!
I have recently faced a problem in my Creative Sounce Card. When i play a sound, no? sound is coming from sound card, No?error message is coming but monitor screen is displaying the sound animations in?Windows media player. I have also tested my speakers & connections and no problem found in it. I also changed the Creative Sound Card Software's settings to default but all in vain. Besides when i?unchecked?the check box ("Only Show Digital Sound") in the Creative Sound Card Software, the analog music is being received, but it is only music without any human voice. The same problem is during voice chat.
Plz help me in this regard.
Thanks in advance.

There is no confusion (anymore) I'm just trying to get the word out that nobody wants to supprt these OEM cards. Not you and not Dell. Does Dell even have the rights to redistibute the apps to work with there versions of your cards? Card works, Drivers Work, No ap
ps.
.see my delima? Just a heads up to anyone else with this problem. I've looked to no avail for a updated set of apps for this OEM card. Really kinda anoyed by this. I mean why can't creative support there own card. I know dell bought it, but it is creative and you made money from it support it. Seems pretty cut and dried to me. Digrunteld Axe

Yahoo Messenger Hanged Up

This is the new macbook i`m using. I`ve just downloaded Yahoo Messenger. was chatting in YM last night when suddenly it hanged up while my webcam was on. tried to quit the application but nothing happened, it was still hanging. other programs are just running just fine. tried to shut down the power but it did not worked also. so i just left the computer open until this morning. when i turned on, it`s still there (the hanged up YM box and the webcam). also the computer shutdown doesn`t still working. what should i do?
macbook Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Glad to hear that ForceQuit was an option, and the computer wasn't compmletely locked up.
You will find ForceQuit a useful option in situations where a program 'hangs'. It's Macintosh way of killing off a stubborn software, without having to reboot the machine.
I gave you the "hold in the power button" option, in case you had REALLY gotten stuck...avoid that option except as a last resort.
(Rebooting the Mac can resolve certain issues, but it is not as common a requirement as a Windows machine).
Be sure to try the YM again, you might have simply had a minor problem. Just don't let it go for 8 hours.
Adium is simply an alternative IM 'client'...iChat comes with a Mac, you might want to look in that program to see if you can add your Yahoo buddies.
Anyway, have fun with your new system!

Voice chat in Yahoo Messenger beta 2 version for Mac

I downloaded Yahoo Messenger beta 2 version. I am not able to voice chat with friends like I used to do in a windows PC. My friends say they get an error message while attempting for voice chat. error message that version is different. Could someone please identify the problem and suggest a solution.

Since Yahoo Messenger is not an Apple product you should look to Yahoo support for answers:
http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/messenger/mac/index.html
Of since you're friends are the ones who receive the error message, perhaps they should upgrade their messenger.

Sound, voice chat, yahoo messenger and VPC 6

Okay perhaps off topic..perhaps not......how do I get sound to work in Yahoo messenger v 7 w/ voice chat via VPC 6 on an AL 15 Powerbook???
And does the AL 15 have a built in Microphone??

Does the microphone work while running VPC?
I don't know, but I think you can easily check. While you're running VPC, go into System Preferences > Sound > Input. (You can access System Preferences from the Apple menu in the upper left-hand corner of your screen. I'm assuming that you can do this while running VPC. If I'm wrong on this, please stop reading this worthless post. ;-))
Look at the meter that reads "input level," just above the slider that reads "input volume." If there's any significant ambient noise where you are, or if you speak at a decent volume out loud (it doesn't even have to be near the mic, which is located beneath the left speak grille), you should see the "input level" fluctuate if the mic's working properly. (The default setting for the "input volume" is midway on the slider. If it's all the way to the left, the mic will not pick up any sounds.)

Voice chat with MSN or YAHOO Messenger on Nokia 77...

Hi,
Does anyone know if it is possible to use to voice chat feature in IM programs like MSN and YAHOO on Nokia 770?
I appreciate your help.

AIUI you can only voice-chat on googleTalk. pidgin might be able to do voice clips on windows for msn sometime. clicking-out to voip might be your best bet. HTH.

Voice Chat on Yahoo Instant Messenger doesn't work on my HP though it does on my work desktop.

My Yahoo Instant Messenger doesn't allow voice chat on my laptop, though I can use it on my work desktop. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling with no success. I'm thinking there may be a hardware issue, an update missing or something.

No idea what "My apple ID account doesn't work on my itunes but it does on the web" means.
Please explain
