Have one PC with Office Communicator 2005 (version 1.0.559).
Have one PC with Windows Live Messenger 2008 (build 8.5.1302.1018). Both PCs have functioning webcams. Try to initiate a webcam session between the two PCs. The Communicator PC says: "Cannot start the selected conversation type with this person. Send an instant message instead." The Live Messenger PC says: "Your invitation to share your webcam could not be sent because < Name > is using a version of Messenger that does not support this feature." Both Communicator and Messenger have menu options to select webcams. Any ideas on why this won't work? Thanks. |

Greetings,
This won't work in this scenario. The two clients are not compatible -- like the error message says. -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Live Messenger MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger MessengerGeek Blog: http://www.messengergeek.com Messenger Resources: http://messenger.jonathankay.com (c) 2008 Jonathan Kay - If redistributing, you must include this signature or citation -- "rlittleson" <rlittleson@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:959CA257-A667-449F-B6F8-928206BA0A6E@xxxxxx

MSFT has multiple IM products - can you only do webcams with the same product
at both ends? Which products will work together? "Jonathan Kay [MVP]" wrote:

Hi,
About the only thing that will work with Office Communicator A/V that isn't Office Communicator is the latest Messenger:Mac 7. Windows Live Messenger A/V is only compatible with itself - there are some third party IM clients that have limited support (aMSN) but that's about it. -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Live Messenger MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger MessengerGeek Blog: http://www.messengergeek.com Messenger Resources: http://messenger.jonathankay.com (c) 2008 Jonathan Kay - If redistributing, you must include this signature or citation -- "rlittleson" <rlittleson@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:0A52BEB2-7BDA-4F68-BF66-892A59F0323C@xxxxxx
