Using Paltalk Express, I can only hear group sounds. I've tried 3 browsers (Safari, Firefox, and Navigator). I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox and Flash, as well as trashing various preference files, changing Java and Midi preferences, and removing audio software that might be causing conflict.
I'm running 10.5.2 Leopard on a 2 Ghz Intel MacBook

I put my login info as usual and wait for Pal to load up. I hear the login sound but pal immediately shuts down and goes back to the pal login screen again. Tried this numerous times with the same result. This has only happened recently (past 12 hours). Not sure if there was an update recently. Any help is appreciated.
I what to share and Idea. Yes I agree with many other that Paltalk Express Has a Few bug and I too would like to have full admin rights just like the Real thing.But,This Idea Is for Both Desktop pal and Express.
Went you Take a look at the Red Dot It very hard to tell why there a Dot on a person. I Look forward to the day that you Make a Color code System to were It easy to understand why there a dot on a person.
I was Think the color code should be something like this..
RED = You have no text no mic,
yellow = No video cam allow but can Still Text and take mic
And A special Dot for Admin went we step
Blue dot = that all you to reply while having a dot That show your away
Something Like This Would make it easy to understand .. and again I have Admin using MAC And it not help me one bit to let them help me if they can't log in to a room with a hat.
Also for Express Beta: It just need a few more Button to get around I hope you can figure out which one to add.. i'm not a program writer but I think you might need to hire a few new one to fix a lot of problem..
I have three problems which help and the help room people were unable to give any assistance with. I am using paltalk express from a mac with mac os x 10.4.11 installed
1. Unable to use admin options when I log into a room where I have been given admin rights. I don't see them anywhere they should be and the help staff said they should be.
2. When I log in, I am logged immediately back out several times each time I log in.
3. I am sometimes logged out in the middle of using chat for no discernible reason.
4. I am able to hear voice, sometimes, in chatrooms but can not use the mic to talk. If I don't have voice, logging out and back in to the room usually fixes it.. but can never talk. I can click the "push to talk" button.. and I see myself key up in the top... but no one else does and they can not hear me when I speak.
On a Macintosh, the "command" key is used for switching applications (like alt-tab in Windows) and for cutting and pasting (like cntrl-c, cntrl-v in Windows). However, in Paltalk Express, just hitting the command key will automatically push the "Push To Talk" button in a chat room. So I will just try to switch applications and accidently jump on the mike and annoy everyone in the room. This makes Paltalk Express pretty much unusable for people on a Mac.
Just wanted to give some feedback on Xpress. I am on a mac and really glad you have this for us now. However, there is a severe time lag on hearing whats being said in real time. Hope you can work this out soon.
Can't "Try Paltalk Express Now". OS is XP Home--IE7. Have Jave and Flash installed. Site won't open. Sits on waiting for http://express.paltalk.com. I've been trying for over two weeks.
Hi...I mean I was sooooooo overwhemled with joy when my friend informed me I can join the Paltalk chat rooms from my MAC. As earlier I had a PC and i use to chat on Paltalk. I had a lot of friends and it was fun & engaging. Unfortunately, my happiness didn't last for long as I can't seem to type of read whats written in arabic.! In addition to that I can't even hear when my friends are talking on the mic nor can I talk on the mic even though I raise my hand and the mic is with me they can't see that.
U guys have done a gr8 job in allowing mac users to be able to use paltalk and I'm sure these few minor problems are bound to happen in the process.
I hope it would be resolved soon enough so Mac users can use paltalk as well :)
Tonight since the 10 minute Paltalk downtime... my Paltalk Express (Fluid.app/Safari, Mac OS-X 10.5.3, Java 1.4.2) has been logging me out every ten minutes or so due to "inactivity" - I leave my Paltalk online for days, I never had this problem before, I never had it with Windows version 9.x, and its very inconvenient. I don't want to have to type in the Opie and Anthony room in the morning to be able to hear the stream, I don't want to be logged out and inaccessible to my contacts just because I'm not actively talking on Pal. This is... very inconvenient and frustrating. Thank you for looking at this.
paltalk express was working on my mac, and now sound is messed up and distorted. it was working better before. the sound works fine on parallels windows on the same mac, so its not the machine, or even settings. it has to be a problem with the software for the browser in some way. please fix it? thank you!!!!
In Paltalk Express today after the update (looks good with new fonts, the smilies are smaller though... but that's ok. they look good small) the time always reports AM. It went from 11:59AM to 12:00AM in the text for me. I logged out and back in, still says AM. The time is correct by the minute and hour, just says AM instead of PM.
When I receive a mass-message from a user who sends to all on their list, it does not show up. It pops a new tab on the tab bar and turns it orange, but i get no text in the message window. Similar messages from Paltalk Notifier work normally.
I use paltalk express on Mac os 10.5.3 in fluid.app/safari using java 5.0 default.
In today's Paltalk Express update, the Rooms Browser no longer opens automatically... and I can't seem to find it. Clicking on the Join a Chat Room link on the main page doesn't do anything for me.
Today's new start page is... fine... I guess... but the Setup Preferences window text is too big for the window now, and there's no more theme page. As a Mac user the Original theme satisfied my UI needs very well, looked more like Mac programs.
