| | Re: problems with webcam Greetings, They're both fully compatible actually -- with the exception of some really old versions, but you'll be notified of that and it won't let you complete the call. -- 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 -- "nataliew" <guest@xxxxxx-email.com> wrote in message news:4e73dca5e0b6ae8c0ebd8c2e3d36a80e@xxxxxx-gateway.com...

| | Re: problems with webcam Greetings Louise, This is a really lousy suggestion I admit, but generally these problems can be caused by network issues. Guiding you through them will be painful and probably not very fun. Instead, you might just want to try another product for voice/video like Skype (www.skype.com) and see what your results are with that application. -- 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 -- "Louise" <Louise@xxxxxx> wrote in message news 365A9A0-9966-4C0D-8924-814E4CA582C8@xxxxxxQuote: > Although our microphone settings are in yellow when we talk neither one of us > have never heard the other.

| | Re: problems with webcam I've given up on trying totalk with the web cam but i have another problem. When i click on my friends name it always says she's offline. I know she is online. When she contacts me i go to accounts and click on show my webcam She gets the message on her computer but she cannot accept. i get the same message from her and i click on accept. Mine is in blue.hers is black. i see her on my computer but she never sees me. If i click the little camera under my windows picture the message comes up that i have stopped her from viewing me. Then it says something about my camera is being used in another program or is not plgged in. Both of us are very frustrated. Can anyone give us detailed instructions on what we are suppose to do when we use our webcams? we are both novices with computers. -- Louise "Jonathan Kay [MVP]" wrote: Quote: > Greetings Louise, > > This is a really lousy suggestion I admit, but generally these problems can be caused by > network issues.
