On my iMac G4 flat panel running OS X 10.4.11, iChat doesn't show an incoming video chat invitation. This occurs on AIM account and Bonjour. Connection Doctor shows Por Restricted. However there are no ports restricted on my DSL Q100 modem, and I do not have the OS X 104.11 firewall enabled.
When I place a video chat to my MacBook Pro (Mavericks) I get a video invitation just fine.
Hi Greg,
Just asking because I can't find a list of iMac with built-in cameras, but does this have one?
In Connection Doctor, what Capabilities does it show?
Could something else be using those ports?
The camera isn't built into the iMac. I added the Logitech C270 HD Webcam a few days ago.
iMac G4 700MHz, 640MB SDRAM; PowerMac4,2
Mac OS X 10.4.11
iChat 3.1.9 (v446)
Logitech HD Webcam C270
The following UVC cameras are supported on the Mac:
Camera Name | Model Number (M/N) | Part Number (P/N) |
HD Pro Webcam C910 | V-U0017 | 860-000266 |
HD Webcam C270 | V-U0018 | 860-000270 |
HD Webcam C310 | V-U0015 | 860-000259 |
HD Webcam C510 | V-U0016 | 860-000261 |
HD Webcam C615 | V-U0027 | 860-000328 |
QuickCam Vision Pro for Mac | V-UBM46 | 860-000143 |
The firewall on the DSL modem is off as is the Mac OS X firewall on the iMac G4. If I start a video call from the iMac G4 to my MacBook Pro (Using AIM to AIM accounts) the invitation shows up on the MacBook Pro. This indicates to me that it isn't a port issue.
I tried turning on the Mac OS X firewall on the iMac G4 and adding the ports under Other. It made no difference.
