Can not add a buddy to my list

Ichat version 4. OS 10.5.6.
I am trying to add a buddy to my list. I type the name, it appears in the list, blinks, I can see the custom icon of the person, and than it disappears.
I can also not chat with the person etc. the person can see me however.
Can someone help fix this?

Go to IChat in the menu bar > Preferences > Accounts.
Log out of AIM and then use the Server Settings tab
Set the port to 443.
Log back in again.
did not work.
"I've had this problem for weeks until tonight. I tried all the fixes listed and nothing seemed work. Here's what fixed it...I went to ichat>preferences>accounts and deleted my account...I then re-entered all the information as if it was a new account and all my buddies were on the list...including the entry that would disappear after 5 seconds. Let me know if this works."
but this did! thanks Defcom!

  • Can't add ANY buddy to AIM list in admin account

    Hi,
    When I use iChat from the admin account, it is absolutely impossible to add any buddy to AIM list because : the "+" button doesn't exist at the bottom of the window and the option is greyed out in "contact". If I use iChat from another user account, it works just fine.
    Can anyone help please?

    Have you tried deleting the plist.
    Go to Users/(your account)/Library/Preferences and delete com.apple.ichat.plist.
    Restart iChat.

  • Can not add Exceptions to Transparent proxy

    Hello all,
    I am sure this is simple but I can not figure out what has changed to cause this. Currently, I can not add items to the exception list in HTTP Transparent Proxy.
    I only see refresh and close buttons on the screen - no Apply changes.
    I have 2 BM servers and one I have access to without issues but the other does not work.
    It definitely worked at some point in time because it has 25 entries but has since stopped.
    What am I missing?
    Thanks,
    Steve D.

  • Can not add buddy

    ok let me explain this again.. I am not able to add buddy,
    I get into Ichat, click on the buddy tab that drops down several options (add buddy, change my picture, invite buddy to chat etc..) everything on this pull down menu is in light grey except .. change my picture.. in other words.. I can not access those options.. I can only access the change my picture option. I though ICHAT was easy to use.. we can not figure this out!

    Hi Billy,
    If you don't remember the Set Up Screens (Pics here) or clicked through the screens with out adding anything you will need to set up either an AIM account or .mac account name. (see link above)
    After that you will need to Add Buddies
    Once you have Buddies in the Buddy list you will be able to Text chat to them at least depending on how you have set up your modem for iChat.
    If you can not see the Buddy List Window use the Apple key and 1 together (Apple and 2 for Bonjour Apple and 3 for Jabber).

  • My wish list is empty and I can not add to it

  • I can not add or delete from my wish list. What am I doing wrong?

    I can not add or delete from my I Tunes wish list. What am I doing wrong?

    The IOS is old - 4.2.1
    I have always been able to edit but not now.
    My mail, contacts and calendar are on Optimum ( it is telling me accounts are currently syncing.
    When I connect to my computer I tunes doesn't show my device even when my ipod is connected.

  • I can not add the smart lists to ipod

    I can not add the smart lists to ipod, itunes If (when clicking the lists are empty) but notas add to the ipod touch are not added automatically.

    Experiencing exactly the same error. The error only occurs on the clustered gateway. Non-clustered gateways work fine. I followed Kristian's whitepaper exactly except that I didn't use a service template to create the gateway cluster. All NICs are connected
    to the proper switches. There are no relevant events/errors on the hosts or the gateway cluster nodes.
    Troubleshooting steps taken so far...
    1. reboot everything
    2. deleted the network service from VMM and re-added
    3. Verified that HNV is working on the host cluster by disabling "host dedicated to gateway" and moving an NVGRE VM to the cluster.
    4. Verified all other networks are working properly on the host cluster.
    5. Deleted and re-added all NICs in the gateway cluster.
    6. Verified that the gateway can be configured using Powershell on the host and remote.
    Now I'm going to create another clustered gateway and another non-clustered gateway to reproduce the problem.
    Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  • Can not add new printer

    I reset my printer list on my mother's MacBook and tried to add a new printer. There are no printers to add in the Add Printer list. I ran Repair Disk Permissions and still I can not add any printers through the System Preferences>Print & Fax. Why are there no printers to select?

    Try reinstalling the printer drivers (software) that came with the printer or go to the printer manufacture web site and download the drivers there.

  • Can not see my Airport in the list of Wifi networks and is blinking organge all the time

    Can not see my airport on the list of WiFi networks and is blinking orange all the time. Tried to reset several times.

    Do you have a Mac or idevice for setting up the Express? It does require a later utility than is available for windows.
    You might be able to setup with the v5 utility in windows but there is no guarantee.
    You should use a simple name both for the base and the wireless. eg AEXgen2 base name and AEXwifi for wireless name.. that is if you get access.

  • Can not add a picture to the JFrame from an ActionListener class

    As topic says, I can not add a picture to the JFrame from an ActionListener class which is a class inside the JFrame class.
    I have a Map.java class where I load an image with ImageIcon chosen with JFileChooser.
    I my window class (main class), I have following:
    class OpenImage_Listener implements ActionListener
         public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
              int ans = open.showOpenDialog(MainProgram.this);     // "open" is the JFileChooser reference
              if(ans == open.APPROVE_OPTION)
                   File file = open.getSelectedFile();                    
                   MainProgram.this.add(new Map(file.getName()), BorderLayout.CENTER);     // this line does not work - it does not add the choosen picture on the window,
                            //but if I add the picture outside this listener class and inside the MainProgram constructor, the picture apperas, but then I cannot use the JFileChooser.
                            showMessageDialog(MainProgram.this, fil.getName() ,"It works", INFORMATION_MESSAGE);  // this popup works, and thereby the ActionListener also works.
    }So why can�t I add a picture to the window from the above listener class?

    The SSCCE:
    Ok, I think I solved it with the picture, but now I cannot add new components after adding the picture.
    Look at the comment in the actionlistener class:
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    import javax.swing.*;
    import java.io.*;
    public class Test extends JFrame{
         JButton b = new JButton("Open");
         JFileChooser jfc = new JFileChooser(System.getProperty("user.dir"));
         Picture pane;
         Test(){
              super("Main Program");
              setLayout(new BorderLayout());
              JPanel north = new JPanel();
              add(north, BorderLayout.NORTH);
              north.add(b);
              b.addActionListener(new Listener());
              setVisible(true);
              setSize(500,500);
              pane = new Picture("");
              add(pane, BorderLayout.CENTER);
         class Listener implements ActionListener {
              public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
                   int ans = jfc.showOpenDialog(Test.this);
                   if(ans == jfc.APPROVE_OPTION)
                        File file = jfc.getSelectedFile();
                        Test.this.add(new Picture(file.getName()), BorderLayout.CENTER);
                        pane.add(new JButton("NEW BUTTON")); // Why does this button not appear on the window???
                        pane.repaint();
                        pane.revalidate();
         public static void main(String[] args)
              Test t = new Test();
    class Picture extends JPanel
         Image pic;
         String filename;
         Picture(String filename)
              setLayout(null);
              this.filename = filename;
              pic = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(filename);
            protected void paintComponent(Graphics g)
                super.paintComponent(g);
                g.drawImage(pic,0,0,getWidth(),getHeight(),this);
                revalidate();

  • Can not add function to pages-document created with Applescript

    If I create new document using the GUI (New document) I can place the cursor within any table-cell, type "=" (equal sign) and f.e. "2+2" which will result in a cell showing a "4".
    If I create a document with Applescript, I can not add new functions (neither by typing = nor by using Insert >> Function (may be different, I have German version here). Already existing functions (which already were in the template) can still be used and work as expected but can not be altered.
    Any idea?
    I use Pages '08, Version 3.03
    Code I used to create the document:
    tell application "Pages"
    launch
    make new document at front with properties {template name:templateName}
    # Angebotsnummer ins Dokument schreiben
    tell body text of front document
    make new paragraph at after paragraph 1 with data angebotsNr
    set paragraph style of paragraph 2 to "Überschrift"
    end tell
    # Datei abspeichern
    set dateiName to missing value
    repeat until dateiName is not equal to missing value
    set dateiName to text returned of (display dialog "Datei Name:" default answer angebotsNr & "_" & kundenName) as text
    end repeat
    save front document in angebotsOrdner & dateiName
    end tell

    I apologize but the given script can't run.
    The variable templateName is undefined.
    The variable angebotsNr is undefined too.
    About the described behavior, it's a bug which I never discover before.
    It's always striking in Pages '09.
    Here is the report which I filed :
    Bug ID# 8704270
    Summary:
    +Odd behavior of tables in Pages documents created by a script+
    +Steps to Reproduce:+
    +Run this huge script+
    +tell application "Pages"+
    +make new document at front with properties {template name:"Blank"} (* "Vierge" on French systems *)+
    +end tell+
    +Insert a table+
    +try to insert a formula+
    +Expected Results:+
    +I assumed that I will get the formula editor which I get when the document is created by hand+
    +Actual Results:+
    +There is no way to get the editor, no way to insert the equal character.+
    +This odd behavior strike in all versions of Pages '09 and Pages '08+
    Regression:
    +None to my knowledge+
