I rewrote it so it makes more sense hopefully. It might has been in the wrong section if so, sorry about that .. really I visit forums and websites since I was about 14 and on this website it seriously is difficult to figure out where you have to be. I am already searching as good as 2 full days now of where to go =/.

Sorry for this long letter, I try to describe as much as possible to hopefully make it easier to fix.
My problem:
I have been actively using voice years ago. I quit for a year, came back but this time, voice does not work.
It is turned on.
The settings do interact with my microfoon and headset.
I can have calls on Skype and it all works perfectly fine (I got Skype turned off when I try to voice on Second Life).
A few days ago I messed around with all the settings. I tried calling in a private call, and it did work. One moment I could hear them, they would not hear me. The other moment I could not hear them, but they could hear me, or it worked perfectly fine. The voice icon was interacting with the green bars as I spoke, but yet they did not hear me.
While being on the net, I suddenly heard people talk on global, and they heard me. This was on the old 1.23 viewer. But this time, the private calls would not work. When I logged back in the 3.0 viewer the private calls worked, but global did not. So I stayed on the 1.23, till I went to bed it all worked fine for several hours.
Next day, same problem but even worse, nothing works now.
Since global call just randomly started working, I did and do not know how to get it to work again.
It worked before, so that proved to me that I can be helped to get it to always work.
Also, Skype works, which is in a way the same.
I have a white dot above my head, but others don't have a white dot.
My connection is fine, not perfect but good enough to not crash (well, rarely), I barrely lag at all and on the same connection I play online games on my ps3, with no lag at all, on the ps3 I can check my connection and it is always 3 or 4 bars, 4 is the maximum. My ps3 is off while on the computer.
Even so;
[12:15] Connecting to in-world Voice Chat...
[12:15] Connected
[12:16] Connecting to in-world Voice Chat...
[12:16] Connected
[12:18] Connecting to in-world Voice Chat...
[12:18] Connected
[12:19] Connecting to in-world Voice Chat...
[12:19] Connected
This is all it does in my chatlog, constantly.
I have tried reinstalling, relogging, resetting voice, changing all the settings, but nothing would fix it.
I also connected my old computer to see if it would be any different on there, but nothing different.
I at first thought it was my connection, but today we checked the connection at home and it is fine. It could have been that I have to open ports, but it worked before, and I don't think it could even work before if the ports had yet to be opened.
Also, at home they don't know I play Second Life for certain reasons and I would prefer to at first hear solutions which would not involve having to ask someone else to help me.
My old computer, which it did work on before;
Windows 7.0
Model: Dell
Processor: Intel® Pentium® Dual CPU E2140 @ 160GHz 16- GHz
Ram: 3 GB
Not sure how to see more info if needed.
The Mac I am using now;
Modelnaam: iMac
Processor: Intel Core i5
Processorsnelheid: 3,1 GHz
Aantal processors: 1
Totale aantal cores: 4
L2-cache (per core): 256 KB
L3-cache: 6 MB
Ram: 8 GB
If anyone could redirect me to anywhere or anyone where someone could help me, I would highly apreciate it. The sim where I am on about 90% of the time, they all talk on global voice there and to me, I can just as well just quit again if I don't hear anyone.
Which I hope I don't have to do because I am starting to get addicted again and I like it, lol.
If the case is too complicated then I don't mind paying for it. To me it is normal to pay for a program you use or to anyone for support, I really just want to fix this.
