My video chat on the new mac book pro is not working

HI,

Which OS is this Mac running ?

If running Mountain Lion I take it you have added the AIM name to the Messages > Preferences > Accounts ?

Have you got the Buddy list on view ?

Is it the combined one called "Buddies" or a separate one for AIM ? (You can unlink them in the General section of the Preferences).

Are you using the Video icon top right of the Messages main window or the green iCons in a Buddy List ?
