  1. The app for the Music app on Mac has a new icon, very similar to the Music app on iPhone and iPad in iOS 14 beta 3. The screenshot sound effect has been changed again; now a combination of the new.
  2. The parental Controls feature on Mac provides an easy way to Turn OFF the camera on your Mac. This feature allows you to Turn OFF the Camera for any of the User Accounts on your Mac, while allowing the Camera to work normally on other User Accounts. Open System Preferences on your Mac click on Parental Controls.
  3. To have a FaceTime call with one other person, you need a Mac with OS X Lion 10.7 or later, a broadband Internet connection, and a built-in or connected microphone or camera. Or use your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. To call a group of people, follow the steps in Use Group FaceTime on Mac.
  4. From a security standpoint, using the latest version of macOS—the Mac operating system—is always preferred. However, if your Mac is several years old, there’s a good chance that the current version of macOS won’t run on your Mac; Apple drops support for Mac models that it declares to be vintage or obsolete.

With more time to dedicate to this I would repartition the disk and install a second Mac OS X partition. This would rule out Mac OS X and this Mac, further isolating it to a network issue. If you want to wait and try Snow Leopard when you can, or if you want the detailed steps to install a new Mac OS partition I am happy with either.
