Buddies disappearing from buddy list

A buddy list for my friend keeps losing names from it every couple of days. It's an AIM screen name, so not a .Mac issue.
ie at log-in, the list is missing a few names. After putting those names back in, a day or so later some more will be gone.
Any thoughts?

Hi benjamin,
Do you shut your computer down at all ?
Do you have near 200 Buddies ?
If not then delete com.apple.ichat.AIM.plist and restart iChat

  • Buddy disappearing from buddy list

    My brother is in my address book and I try to add him to my AIM buddy list and he just disappears after it seems to blink a few times...

    If a Contact is in the Address Book with or without a Screen Name and you try to add the same Person as a New Buddy with First and Last Name in iChat the Address Book will not allow you to duplicate the entry and iChat does not add the Buddy.
    The actual issue is called Feedbag Error 10 but iChat 4 does not report it as such.
    Add the Screen Name to the Info in the Address Book and then drag the Name in the middle column to iChat (or when Adding a Buddy use the drop down to expand the Address Book bit and choose the Address Book Name that way).

  • HT5085 I have found that at least 3 music videos that I had previously purchased are not available in my I-tunes music video list.  I paid for them over a year ago, why are they not accessible, and why did they just disappear from my lists?

    I have found that at least 3 music videos that I had previously purchased are not available in my I-tunes music video list.  I paid for them over a year ago, why are they not accessible, and why did they just disappear from my lists?

    Have you deleted anything from your iTunes library ? Have you checked to see if they are still on your computer, but not listed in your iTunes library ?
    If not then do they show in the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage for redownloading ? If they don't show there and others do and they are still in your country's store, then check to see if they are hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
    If they are no longer in your store for redownloading (or you aren't in a country where music videos can be redownloaded) then you will need to copy them back from your backup of your library/downloads.

  • Time Capsule disappears from device list when wireless is toggled

    When I toggle wireless on and off, either via profile or Airport > Wireless, sometimes my base station disappears from the list of devices in Airport Utility:
    Has anyone else seen this? My Time Capsule reappears after I close and reopen Airport Utility.

    I may not be understanding what you mean but unless you have the TC connected via ethernet it will disappear when you turn airport off, it would come back up when you turn it on but it may take a few minutes.

  • I have added more songs to my library. Half of the library has selected ticks but when I click on any of the others to select them the whole song disappears from the list. Why and what can I do to fix?

    Hey Paul,
    If I understand correctly, it sounds like iTunes is not grouping the songs from a particular CD together. The cause could be something as minor as a misspelling or slight variations. For more information, see the following resource:
    Why aren't songs with the same album art grouped together?

  • My buddies blink for a moment before disappearing from my list.

    I add a buddy on iChat and it blinks a few times before my buddy disappears on my list. The buddy is not blocked, it's not even on there, and if I send a message to this buddy, they can get the message, but my window doesn't recognize that I've sent anything. What do I do?
    Also, where is the user selection?

    Hi,
    If you mean you are also displaying Off Line Buddies and they don't appear there either it is most likley that you are adding them with including the First Name, Last Name details and the person is already in the Address Book.
    Do the Add Buddy bit again.
    Don't add the First Name , Last name info but click the blue arrow head next to the Last Name line.
    Pick their card in the Address Book.
    I am not sure what you mean by "User Selection"
    Could you phrase this another way or tell me what it is you are looking for ?

  • Jobs disappear from job list

    Hello experts,
    i post this thread because there is a new problem with a reports server running in Oracle Application Server 10.1.2.3.0

    May you can help me solving this problem?
    Thanks a lot.

    Hello, I to have had this problem with a brand new Mac Pro and new install. I did note that, whilst I didn't use the migration assistant I did copy over my preferences from an old system though and may have corrupted something.
    My buddies loaded, presumably from AOL system as they appear no matter where i log in from. But a new buddy that i tried to add simply appeared, pulsed for a few seconds and disappeared. I was able to chat with the friend and screen share, audio chat and video chat with them but could only make a connection if I was quick to do so from adding them again to my buddy list.
    To resolve the issue I deleted all iChat preference files:
    com.apple.iChat.AIM.plist
    com.apple.iChat.plist
    com.apple.iChat.SubNet.plist
    com.apple.iChatAgent.plist
    that were stored in my ~/Library/Preferences folder.
    I did have to re-sign in to iChat but that is only a user name and password which gets re-stores in my Keychain so no bother.
    Hope this helps as it worked for me!

  • Firefox start page disappeared from bookmark list and now I can't put it back. Whats going on?

    HP win 7 machine. Use firefox to open Charter email: no problem. Recently, my gmail acct (which I use infrequently) has appeared as my default , which I do not prefer, but cannot seem to change. While on the Charter email page, today, I tried to access Forefox start from my bookmark menu. It disappeared from the bookmark list. Got to the start page through a different route, but it would not bookmark at all.

    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: command+Shift+F).

  • IPod shuffle disappears from source list

    Each time I plug in my Shuffle to my computer, it shows up in the source list with the licensing agreement on the screen. No matter if I agree/save the agreement or cancel it, my Shuffle then disappears from the source list. I can't look at the songs on it or change any of the settings. I do have the latest version of iTunes and have updated the iPod, so I'm fresh out of ideas... Any suggestions?

    After connecting the iPod, quit iTunes if it is running.
    Then try using the iPod Reset Utility. It is different from Restore in iTunes.

  • Lion Issue - Buddies not in Buddy List

    I can see my Buddies in the menu bar drop down but not in my buddy list. Any ideas?

    Hi,
    If you have several Buddy Lists that Login to AIM then the Menu Bar iCon drop down will show all those that are On line.
    There may be some that are Not in a Buddy List when you view it.
    It does similar thing with multi-Jabber Buddy lists
    The Drop down will show All  but lets say you have  Google List, that will only show you  your Google Buddies (Buddies added to the Google List)
    Of course the other thing is that the Drop Down can display Jabber Buddies whilst you look at a AIM (Login) Buddy list or vice versa)

  • Layer Styles Disappearing from my list

    When I first launch Photoshop and load a preset layer style I can get a full list of available presets to load. After clicking on an element and actually using a layer style on it I no longer can get my full list of available presets to load. The list is cut to 1/3 of the original list.
    So the full list is available and in the folder but once using a layer style it seems most of the layers styles disappear from the load menu. I have had no problem with this for months and made no changes over the last few days so this is mind boggling.
    Is this a known bug? Any suggestions?

    Hi there! Because the forum you originally posted in is for beginners trying to learn the basics of Photoshop, I moved your question to the Photoshop General Discussion forum, where you'll get more specialized help.

  • Re: Portege R830 - fingerprint reader disappeared from device list

    Hi,
    Today I encountered first serious issue with my brand new R830 - after a few sleep/resumes states and movements of laptop, fingerprint device disappeared from available devices list.
    Firstly, I was able to see it working properly but I couldn't start fingerprintreader software nor log in to windows but after installing drivers fromt Toshiba website it disappeared completely.
    Has anyone seen anything like that?
    Thank you in advance for help.

    Hi again,
    A brief update - sensor appeared this afternoon but not in fully working condition - it runs and appears in device manager but after a few minuts it turns "yellow" and shows information that this device cannot start (code 10). I saw that it shares generic usb hub with ericsson modem nad usb composite device (webcam) but after I disabled them in BIOS nothing changed. Authentec fingerprint service starts and runs ok - there are also no entries in system logs ... Do you have any ideas what's wrong?
    I'm using Win7 PRO EN and Microsoft Security Essentials.
    Thanks in advance for help.

  • Twitter disappeared from share list

    Bit strange, twitter has disappeared from the share options in Safari 8. When i click on the share button, it is no longer listed, and if i click on "more" it is not listed there unticked either. Not really finding alot on the internet about a similar problem.
    I am on the latest Yosemite, and Safari.
    This is the twitter share that comes with Safari rather than any extension i've download. So, it normally appears in the list with the others like Facebook, Linkedin, Airdrop etc.
    any ideas?
    thanks for reading
