[QUOTE="newscribe, post: 1159973, member: 175819"] Hi, Have issues with iChat V 5.0.3(745) on new 2010 Macbook running Snow Leopard, I can text fine to all buddies but not talk as soon as either they or I click accept iChat just sits there trying to form a connection then finally says that the other party declined. If they phone me I get the ringing tone and info box hit accept and the same thing happens they are told I would not accept. I have set the account up as Jabber because I have a Gmail account using talk.google.com with Port 443 and the SSL box checked. Things that have been tried 1)Changing port numbers IE 5222 > 5223 etc with and without SSL checked. 2)Turning off the Macbook Firewall. 3)Using Gmail.com as server. None of the above has helped, and when I open connection doctor all have a green tick so no indication as to what might be wrong. As per screen shot. [URL=http://img695.imageshack.us/i/ichatdoctor.jpg/][IMG]http://img695.imageshack.us/img695/3599/ichatdoctor.th.jpg[/IMG][/URL] I have seen plenty of posts saying that iChat talk is OK but text/chat does not work not helpful as mine is reversed. Any pointers would be appreciated as I wanted to use iChat as a backup to Skype. [/QUOTE]
