I don't know how to video chat on my ipod

If you've been using your computer to access Facebook, you might be interested in accessing it while you're on the go with your iPod Touch, a portable multimedia device made by Apple.
As of May 2011, Apple sells four iPod models (the Shuffle, the Nano, the Classic and the Touch), of which only the iPod Touch connects to the Internet.
The iPod Touch has two built-in cameras, and a 3.5-inch touch-screen display with a virtual keyboard that you use to type messages.
The device connects to the Internet via Wi-Fi, so you can use Facebook on your iPod Touch with the free Facebook app.

Press the "Home" button on your iPod Touch, located below the screen.
Tap "Settings" on the home screen, and then tap "Wi-Fi."
Tap the "Wi-Fi" option setting to "On." Tap the "Ask to Join Networks" option setting to "On."
Move to a location that has Wi-Fi, such as at a business or home computer network, or a public-access site such as at a shopping mall or cafe.
Type the password at the prompt if one is required to join a Wi-Fi network.


Press the "Home" button to return to the home screen.
Tap the "App Store" icon. Tap "Search," then type "Facebook" in the search bar, and then tap "Search." Tap "Facebook" from the results.
Tap the word "Free" in the Facebook app description screen. Tap "Install."
Type your Apple ID at the prompt.
The Facebook app downloads and installs on your iPod Touch.

Press the "Home" button to return to the home screen.
Tap the "Facebook" app icon on the home screen.
Type your name and password, and then tap "Go" to log in to your Facebook account.

Tap the icon of nine squares at the top of the screen to display Facebook features, such as "Messages," "Photos" or "News Feed."
Tap "News Feed" to read your News Feed.
Tap "Messages" to see your messages.
Tap the icon of the pen and paper to write a new message.
Tap "Chat" to chat with friends, tap "Events" to see your events, and tap "Notes" to write a note.
Tap "Friends" to see your friends, look at friends' pages and see friends' requests.
Tap "Photos" to see your photos, and tap the plus sign at the top of the screen to make a new photo album.

Tap "Profile," then tap the camera icon if you want to upload a photo or video.
Tap "Take Photo or Video," then shoot a picture or video with your iPod Touch's camera, then tap "Use."
If you shot a picture, tap "Write a Caption."
Type a caption, then tap "Done." Tap "Upload" to upload the photo to Facebook.
If you shot a video, type a title and a description for the video, then tap "Upload" to upload the video to Facebook.
Tap "Choose from Library" to use a photo or video already on your iPod.
A list of your photo albums appears.
Tap an album, and then tap a thumbnail of a video or a photo.
Type a caption for the picture or a title and description for a video, and then tap "Upload."

Tap the icon of nine squares at the top of the screen to return to the list of Facebook features.

Facebook affords its users several means of communicating with one another, from public posts made to the collective News Feed and individual users' Walls to direct, private messages. Facebook also allows for real-time chat communication between users who are both online -- this doesn't, however, include an option to chat using video as of this writing.

How Facebook Chat Works

Facebook chat functions much in the same way as standalone chat clients, such as AOL Instant Messenger and Windows Live Messenger. To chat with another user on Facebook, he must be one of your contacts and also be online. Two categories of online friends exist: Available and Idle. Available friends, which appear at the top of your chat list and have green dots next to their names, are actively using the site and, therefore, more likely to be available for chat. Idle users are not actively using Facebook, and although they're signed in, they may not be at their computer to chat.
Chat Capabilities

Facebook Chat is simple and, as of this writing, permits you only to send text in most cases. The one exception is in the case of emoticons. If you type ":)", for example, a yellow smiley face appears. Beyond this, Facebook Chat's list of features is rather limited. If you don't want to chat within the main Facebook interface, you can pop out the chat box and continue your conversation in a separate window. You can also make yourself go offline if you don't wish to chat with others or to let them chat with you.
Links and Videos

Although you may direct others to pictures, videos and other multimedia within chat -- namely, via text links to the URLs at which they're hosted -- it's not possible to embed images and videos themselves within a chat message. Furthermore, Facebook Chat isn't capable of video chatting, such as programs like Skype and Windows Live Messenger. If you want to communicate with one of your Facebook friends via video message, you won't be able to do so using Facebook Chat.
Skype Workaround

One potential workaround to Facebook not having video chat among its features is using Skype's Import Contacts feature. In addition to being able to import contacts from email clients such as MSN Hotmail and Gmail, you can enter your Facebook credentials and cross-reference your contact list to see which of your friends are also using Skype. After you've done this, use Skype to make free video calls with your Facebook friends who use the program.

Hi there, I've been experiencing the same issue with Facebook. Here's what you can do. instead of chatting through the chatbox, hit MESSAGES then use it instead on chat box. You can chat from there as long as your friend is online. Maybe there is a bug on Facebook.
Good luck!

the chat is activate for any one , You need first to be have a friend or folowers to chat with him by clicking bottom on chat icon ,if you don't have friend on facebook you need to add some friend and you can add me [email protected]

This is an issue with facebook, not your computer. Just give it some time and try again.

you just signing the messenger and you can see the optios at the top of the messenger .you can see connect,friends etc and you can choose the different options to stay online and offline.have a good chatting

• Download the voice and video chat plug-in, quit all open browser windows, and install the plug-in.
• Sign in to Gmail, iGoogle or orkut.
• In your chat list, select the contact you want to call. If they have a camera icon next to their name, you can make a voice or video call to them; just click the camera icon to place a video call or the phone icon to place a voice call.

If your friend doesn't have a camera next to their name in your chat list, you can invite them to download the voice and video chat plug-in from the Video & more menu in a chat window. Even if your friend doesn't have a video camera, you can still have a voice chat or a 1-way video chat.
