I tried to use my webcam on AIM, but i can only see the other person but they cant see me. I was wondering if having an older version of AIM will affect this because i have 5.5 and my friend probally has 5.9

I can’t say for sure, but no 5.5 version has worked for me without problems, or worked at all. I use 5.5.3599 and it still crashes on me EVERY SINGLE TIME I attempt to get a webcam convo going, and the same is for my buddy on 5.5.3598.

well i know its AIM’s fault beacuse i can use my webcam with Eyeball Chat. I upgraded my AIM to 5.9 and it still doesnt work. AIM sucks.
