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?

  • 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.

  • DVD drive stopped working after Mavericks install

    I have a Macbook Pro (late 08 model) that was running Snow Leopard. I recently did a clean install of Mavericks and since then the DVD drive just spins and ejects discs without being able to read them (doesn't seem to matter what I use. Software, games, audio cds, etc..). It was working fine before installing Mavericks and I can still boot from the DVD drive (old snow leopard boot disc) but it won't read any discs once booted into the OS even though the OS is detecting the drive just not the disc when inserted.
    I've tried resetting the NVRAM/PRAM and resetting the SMC as suggested on other forums but like many others with the same issue it didn't help. I also cycled through several drutil commands as suggested to "wake up" the drive but that didn't help any either.
    I'm kind of stumped here guys. I could roll back to Snow Leopard but I've got some software thats dropping support so I'd rather be running Mavericks if I can sort out this DVD drive issue. Clearly its not the drive itself since it worked fine before and I can boot from it. Any ideas?

    Hrm looks like I might of fixed it. I went back after seeing another post about spamming drutil commands to "wake up" the drive and just spammed them about 20 or so times and the drive started working again.
    I'm still very confused as to why it just stopped working within the OS after installing Mavericks (yet I was still able to boot from the DVD just fine). Clearly something is bugged in mavericks. I even came across a post on the apple forums from someone with this issue and it was effecting both his late 08 and early 2013 Macbook Pros.
    I'll keep an eye on my own machine to see if it stops working again but for now it seems my drive is "fixed" go figure.

  • Boot keys stopped working after Leopard install

    I have seen others having this problem in another thread but no answers, so thought I'd give it a go.
    After reading these threads finally got Leopard to install and run okay. Many thanks all. But, along the way, my boot keys stopped working. It doesn't matter what I hold down, whether 'c' or 'cmd-opt-p-r' or 'shift' or any other key combination the machine just boots straight into Leopard.
    I have tried resetting the PMU (or whatever it is these days) via the internal button in desperation but still no luck.
    Anyone with any ideas?

    Same problem here, so I'll pull this post up. No key works.
    I always have to go to the Start Drive (or whatever it's called in english) in Preferences Panes and choose the partition I wish to start directly in OSX or Windows for booting back to OSX. This is very annoying. Alt key won't show up any possible boot disk although their both internal drives.
    If someone would kindly post any ideas how to change that, would be great. I've done a fresh install, with a Time Machine recovery, but this didn't seem to help.
    EDIT:
    I found another subjet here from november '07:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1224639
    it seems the new Apple Keyboard is the origin of the Problem on iMac Core Duo. Apple techs said that a new firmeware should be coming before the end of 2007 (but it's february 2008 now ?!?). Any other ideas how to get this work ? I'll write on Aplpe feedback page for sure. Maybe the other boot keys aren't working because of this keyboard too.

  • 8i on NT Listener stops working after Designer install

    We installed Oracle 8i Enterprise Edition 8.1.5.0.0 on NT. Database worked fine. After installing Designer 6.0, the Listener will not start.
    FYI, for the Designer installation, we used the same ORACLE_HOME name as the database, but a different directory location. Any suggestions?
    Please redirect us to another forum if appropriate.
    Thanks,

    Ravi,
    Thank you for your prompt reply.
    1. Your answer would suggest that we have not installed the products in the proper order. Would you suggest that we de-install and re-install in the order you listed?
    2. Could the installation order have caused the Listener to stop working?
    3. Can you suggest another approach to resolving the Listener issue other than re-installing Designer and Oracle 8i in the order you suggested?
    Thanks again,
    -Don & Van

  • Phone Voice Audio stopped working after upgrade

    I upgraded to the new SW
    I've done hard resets - that seems to get my phone working again - but now the only way to make/receive phone calls is to have the speakerphone on OR the handsfree cord plugged into the phone.
    Any suggestions??

  • Username and Password won't work after Archive & Install...?

    Can someone help me out here. I had to do an Archive and install on my sisters iMac G4 this evening, for Tiger OSX. She was getting continual Kernel Panics and could not boot to her desktop even once. So I did the Archive and Intsall, but after 2.5 hours and using both Disc 1 and Disc 2 for the process (like it had asked for)...and it all finished, a welcome screen pops up after the OS launches prompting me to enter the computer name, and password. We have this information saved, and always have, but the iBook is not accepting them?? Any thoughts or suggestions on what we should do next? The options I have on this screen are (sleep, restart, shutdown, or login...with the name and password fields above) Thanks everyone. Any help would be much appreciated.
    Sincerely,
    Smartmediaman

    I did check those options to preserve the users and network prefs. Just put in the install disc 1 and ran change password, but the only option in the drop down was for the system administrator (root), and I put in a new password, and confirmed it, then...rebooted to desktop and same window popped up prompting me to enter the computer's username and password, and still...nothing worked. Any other ideas folks? Thanks,

    Thanks in Advance...
    regards,
    Manikandan

    The approach I would take, in general is:
    1) pick a listener, and only one. Get that working.
    2) Make sure all the databases register to that listener
    3) Fix the TNSNAMES.ORA files appropriately.
    To fix the listener
    1) Verify the listener address matches the current environment
    SID_LIST_LISTENER =
      (SID_LIST =
        (SID_DESC =
          (SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
          (ORACLE_HOME = C:\oracle\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server)
          (PROGRAM = extproc)
        (SID_DESC =
          (SID_NAME = CLRExtProc)
          (ORACLE_HOME = C:\oracle\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server)     << - MUST point to correct HOME
          (PROGRAM = extproc)
    LISTENER =
      (DESCRIPTION_LIST =
        (DESCRIPTION =
          (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC_FOR_XE))
          (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = myHOST)(PORT = myPORT))
      )where
    myHOST is this host's resolvable name or IP address
    myPORT is the port (default 1521) that the listener should monitor
    The HOST is often a problem if the machine uses DHCP.
    2) Register the databases
    On startup, database will auto-register to the listener defined in the init parameter 'LOCAL_LISTENER', which defaults to 'HOST={current_host}, PORT=1521'
    After startup, if the listener is taken down, you can register each database manually using the DBA command
    ALTER SYSTEM REGISTER;
    Either way, it should show up in the output of 'lsnrctl status'
    While you are accessing the database, you might want to find out which services the database supports. That can be done in SQLPlus using the command
    SHOW PARAMETER SERVICE_NAMES
    Note that the database name is the default service name.
    3) Fix [all] the TNSNAMES.ORA file[s].
    Each SERVICE_NAME from the previous list that you want to access from this client, yu should find an entry that looks like
    myTEST =
      (DESCRIPTION =
        (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = myHOST)(PORT = myPORT))
        (CONNECT_DATA =
          (SERVER = DEDICATED)
          (SERVICE_NAME = mySERVICE)
    myTEST is the alias I want to look up by using it as the connect target string.
    myHOST should match the HOST= entry in the LISTENER.ORA
    myPORT MUST match the PORT= entry in the LISTENER.ORA
    mySERVICE is the Service to which I am asking the listener to connect me, as found in the lsnrctl status output

  • After Effects CS6 stopped working after Mavericks install

    I started getting a - You cant use this version of the application "Adobe After Effects CS6 with this version of OS X 10.9.1 - You have Adobe After Effects CS6" 11.0 - all my other Adobe CS6 programs are working - photoshop, premiere, bridge ect. Is this a delete and re install or is there a way around this problem?

    You have to run the update for AE. You may have to use the uninstaller and then re-install. I'm guessing that this started after you ran an update for your OS.
    When you ask a question assume that we know nothing about your system or your history with that system. We can provide better help if we know if your system worked before, what changed, and anything else that pertains to your problem. Something as simple as an automatic update to your virus protection can kill another app.

  • Airport disk just stopped working after Leopard install

    My airport disk worked perfectly in Tiger. After installing Leopard i can see airport disks in the finder but when i try to see contents the system hangs up for a few seconds and then i get a message "can't connect to disk" or something similar. I tried reinstalling airport software from cd, upgrading firmware of airport extreme, deleting keys from keychain but still don't work. Any experience?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    This could be related to an authentication issue,could you try to change the authentication of the disk to "With a disk password" or "With base station password" on the disk pane of the airport utility (into the file sharing tab)?

  • Macbook Pro Audio line in stopped working after Leopard install

    Anyone know what's up with this? Since I installed Leopard (did an erase and install) my audio line in port isn't working although my built-in microphone is. Ideas? I haven't found a solution so far from my searches.

    I also have this problem but with a slightly different twist..
    I was using my plantronics (old ms gamevoice headset) with 10.5.2 and it worked, then installed the m-Audio Firewire Audiophile beta drivers and neither the audio-in or the m-audio audiophile line-in cause any VU-meter response (nor input) whereas the standard inbuilt microphone does.
    After uninstalling the m-audio drivers the situation is still the same.
    Oddly - if I plug in the headphones into the line-in (rather than microphone) then speak into them I actually get input audio (and VU-meter response) through the MBP's audio-in.
    So the story about no power is used (hence the headphones create enough to register the sound) sounds about true... very annoying as I thought my old headset had died and went out and bought a new one.. that still doesn't explain the audiophile input issues..
    Now I fully expect both companies to point fingers at each other.. I don't care - just get it fixed please.
