Mac High Sierra Google Hangouts App

Posted on by admin

If you've been battling to get the video for Google Hangouts to work on Safari I have a workaround for you..

Jun 19, 2017  This is a nice feature for Mac users who chat with Google Hangout and leave a web browser window open to do so, since you’ll be able to communicate and message through Google Hangouts (aka modern Google Talk) but directly in the same Messages app you use for iMessage communication on the Mac.


  1. Open Hangouts and start your video call. The green light next to the camera should come on. The video won't work at this stage.
  2. Now open Photo Booth to activate the camera.
  3. Your Hangouts call should now have started the camera and you're good to go!

It's important to do it in the order above, although I've heard of it working for a few in the reverse order.


Of course you'll need all your Safari plug-ins up to date, installed and configured with the right permissions before trying this (a quick search will reveal plenty of sites that'll show you how, see link below to access plug-in downloads).

While this is a win for those of us who need Hangouts on Safari it's not a good enough solution. Put pressure on Apple by reporting the issue at Feedback - Safari - Apple

Install Google Hangouts On Mac

Note:

  1. My Hangouts has always worked in Chrome but not Safari (until I tried this workaround)
  2. I'm using macOS High Sierra version 10.13.2
  3. And also Safari version 11.0.2
  4. I've never had a problem with the Hangouts iOS app on my iPhone
  5. If the green camera light doesn't come on in Hangouts I'm afraid I don't have a solution for that
