As I can see in your subject and in other writers who tried this out, that the audio chat is working. But it doesn't work for me. What can I do to enable it? Hope to get some respond :). Hello,

I just setup google talk in the jabber of the ichat program. So my friend list with the google talk users comes up. I however do not know how I can do audio or video chat with them (I am 100% certain they're all windows users). I also installed chax and tried clicking on the user names but neither the audio nor video buttons were highlighte but only the text chat button ... ditto for the audio toolbar ... only the connection doctor and microphone can be enabled (if I connect using my ichat account ... my ichat buddies and I can do audio and video chats). Help is greatly appreciated. May your close ones and you have a memorable week ahead! Hi … thanks for the insight … I just setup google talk in the jabber of the ichat program.
