Command 1 now gives bonjour list instead of buddy list

since upping to leopard, my window shortcuts have swapped.
command 1 now gives me the bonjour list and command 2 gives me the buddy list.
and when i click on the dock icon, i get the bonjour list. basically, bonjour and buddy lists have swapped places. it is a small thing, but it's actually becoming a bit frustrating.
anyone have a hint for me?
thanks in advance,
~kyle

thanks for the reply. this partially fixes the problem.
the command 1 and 2 are working now with this system pref change.
however, when i click the icon in the dock, the bonjour list pops up instead of the buddy list. i guess i'll just have to live with it.
any hint as to how this happened?
will trashing the plist help?
thanks again,
~kyle

Any need for Allergen heirarchy list instead of simple list?

This question is to the user community more than Oracle folks. Does anyone else think that Allergens and Intolerances would be better served as a tree/hierarchy list instead of the simple list that we have today? I have formatted my simple list for English and the limitation that the sort is alphabetic. It appears that in some languages the sort order is not as logical as it is for English Users.
Question: Is there any value to request this simple list be converted on an Enhancement Request?
Example: Our English List becomes the translated list ** Use Imagination .... the idea is that when we try to put logic in English, it becomes "mixed up" on translations ...
Fish - Bass
Fish - Tuna
Milk Products - Casein
Milk Products - Lactose
Milk Products - Whey
Tree Nuts - Almond
Tree Nuts - Pecan
Tree Nuts - Walnut
** Imagination goes here ....
Almond
Bass
Casein
Lactose
Pecan
Tuna
Walnut
Whey

It appears that I am the only customer seeking something like this. I have modified our allergens to hopefully be more helpful in translations. Discussion is answered.

Annoying dual buddy lists

In the new iChat, whenever I click on the icon in the dock, iChat pops open, and displays both "Contact List" and "AIM Buddy List" at the same time. This is not so much a serious problem as an annoyance, as having two nearly identical buddy lists seems redundant. I'm guessing this is due to preferences, but I haven't been able to fix the problem thus far.

In iChat 4 you can have at least three Buddy lists if you have an @mac/AIM name a Jabber/GoogleTalk one and the Bonjour list for other Macs.
If you go on to have multiple AIM/@mac names (or Jabber ones) you get the name changed at the top of the List normally based on the Login name.
I have one Jabber name logged in at present and the List is called Jabber List.
I have a @mac name and a different AIM name that show the Screen name as the List name.
I have not heard of one called Contacts.
Then I played in ichat > Preferences > Accounts and changed the Description of one of the Accounts to Contacts and that named the account as that at the Top.
It would seem that is most likely what you have done.

Eed to click twice on dock icon to see buddy list?

Ichat app is Off, I click once on the iChat iCon (in the dock) the application becomes active, I can hear the chime (user available) in the background but no iChat window. I have to click twice on the icon to see the iChat window. When I start iChat from the application folder it works great.
Tried:
remove dock icon and reinstall
deleted ichat pref files
no luck so far.
Is there anything I can do to make it work correctly from the dock?
Thanks

Hi,
Using the Red Dismiss button does not Quit the application as it does in some other apps.
if the Buddy List is dismissed and then iChat is Quit then this is remembered between iChat Start ups (Using the iCon to reveal or windows is only a temporary over-ride.)
Use the iChat Menu Bar > Windows to reveal the Buddy List
Use the Red Button to dismiss again
Repeat getting it back with the menu item or keyboard strokes it lists.
When you shut down iChat now it should remember that the buddy list was open when it was Quit.
If this does not work delete com.apple.ichat.plist from you Users/(your account)/Library/Prefernce folder and restart iChat.
This method is a bit more drastic as it also deletes Bubble colours, font choices, saved Status Messages and the like

My i chat balloon is on the bottom of my computer and it will not open - I have even called my daughter to see if she can open it by inviting me to chat and my buddy list is gone!!!!! I don't know what I hit or where I go from here???   But it seem to me

I can not even open it under settings?   I am at a total loss?????? HELP??

Hi,
With iChat open go to the Window Menu
This should list logged in Buddy Lists (Accounts)
Use the keystrokes listed to bring the Buddy list back in to view.
If there are no accounts shown to be logged in open the iChat Menu itself and go to Accounts and choose one.
A Chat window may show if you are using iChat 6 in Lion and closed the app with that chat window open (as Lion reopens the app in the "State" it was in before it was Quit or the computer was shut down.)

How to maintain buddy list of a user

Hi all,
Questions about accessing XDMS.
Our service uses rls-services and resource-lists to maintain buddy list of a user. After reading Admin Guide of OCMS, I found that OCMS doesn't support rls-services. Is there another way to consider? How can Oracle Communicator maintains buddy list of a user?
Thanks,
Ed Seunghoon Yeon

You can check this FM too -
HRCM_COMP_ORGUNIT_EMPL_GET
To obtain the org unit text you have to get it either from HRP1000 or T527X, depends on your choice.
As an alternative you can do select also,
Select Perner from PA0105 where subty = '0001'
and usrid = sy-uname.
select Orgeh from PA0001 where pernr = pa0105-pernr.
select Orgtx from T527X where orgeh = pa0001-orgeh.

Amit

Buddy in app buddy list but not in menubar buddy list

For some reason, one of my Buddies does not show up in the Buddy List available from the menubar. That buddy (and all buddies) are listed in the Buddy List shown within the iChat application. I tried deleting the preferences plist files as referenced in http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8269981 but it did not change the behavior I am seeing. Any suggestions?
This screenshot shows "Anthony Smith" listed in the app but not in the menubar list: http://www.eliker.net/missing_buddy.jpg

I found the solution. That person had their AIM account entered twice into their address card on my computer. The capitalization was different between the two entries as well. I removed the buddy, deleted the extra AIM account entry from their address card, then added them back as a buddy as all is well!

Saving buddy lists?

I want to switch my screen name, as well as use .Mac for iChat, but I have overe 400 buddies and I don't want to spend the time retyping my ENTIRE buddy list. Is there a way to save my buddy list and import it into the new account(s)? thanks!!!

Hi,
I tried this in AIM 4.7 on my G4
I checked the Options to the save and had everything selected and it saved the list and details as a whole.
The Buddy List appeared in total separated into groups (including Off-line ones).
I saved mine to the Desktop and then Double Clicked on it and it offered the option to View it (I had AIM open at the time)
You are talking about Groups as in the third picture here http://www.ralphjohnsuk.dsl.pipex.com/page8.html ?
You are not trying to amalgamate several iChat Screen name Buddy Lists into one Buddy List ?

IMessage Full Screen Buddy List Consolidation

It would be nice if we can get our buddy list to show up in full-screen mode. Perhaps have it attached to the chat window on the left or right?

hi,
It would nice.
Although iChat dealt with most windows separately the Buddy lists could be joined in iChat 5 and 6.
This would suggest that the Messages window could be linked to other windows or at list a Combined Buddy list if being used.

Open Buddy List instead of Chat Window

I remember at least with iChat, when you clicked on the icon in the dock, you could have it open the Buddy List to pick a name to start a conversation. Now with Messages, everytime I click on the icon, it just takes me to a new chat window. I've looked around in the options and can't find a way to default to opening the Buddy List instead of a window, even if I move a particular chat account above iMessage in the Accounts window.
Any workarounds? If not, I'd like to see this make it to the feature request list.
Thanks!

Hi,
The Window Menu (once Messages in Launched) and the keystrokes listed remains the only place that this can be done.
The option to Chose any Window that is Open from the DOCK icon has gone (Used mainly when the app was Not "front")
The other method of using the Menu bar icon drop down to get to individual buddy List also does not work as it does not list which Buddy list is "Front" (you can opt to show or not Show the Bonjour Buddies (making Bonjour the "Front" Buddy list but it does not tell which is when the Bonjour one is not)
Like you I am somewhat "iChat Centric" about this.

Ipod Touch : on the ipod the Artist List is now filled with AlbumArtist instead of Artists

Hi There,
Since the upgrade to iOS 5 on the Ipod ( or the NEW Itunes , one of them ) ... I now have a problem...
My iPOD Touch , always did what is was supposed to do ... , click on Music - Artist and it listed almost all the 5000+ Artists that were on the ipod ... easy for searching if i wanted to look up an artist of song ....BUT something changed after the updates....
When I now select ARTIST on the ipod to search ... I have a VERY short list.... after deleting ALL of my music and re putting it back into iTunes , and synching with the iPod , .. I noticed it was still the same .... , maybe 200 artists.... instead of 5000+ ....
In Itunes I opened up the column ALBUM ARTISTS.... and because one of the updates before , ruined all the groups of Albums, as it was looked up to be ONE album as all of the Album Artists were the same ... I renamed all of the Albums to Album Artists but kept the Artists on the same album as they were....
for example a CD called, Best of Dance features 30 songs with 30 different artists ... so I renamed all the album artists to Various Artists to see ( and PLAY ) all the songs if I selected the Album ... ( were otherwise it will play ony THAT song I selected ... ) ..... so most of my Album Artists are "Various Artists"...
Tis all worked fine untill the updates as now my iPod SHOWS me under the list of ARTISTS ... the ALBUM ARTISTS... and that is almost all Various Artists and so it is VERY hard to search on Artists ... as not impossible ...I am not sure what happend but it seems iTunes changed the list of the Artists to Album Artists....
I found a script Artists to Album Artists ... from Doug Scripts .. but that runs only on a MAC instead of me using Windows 7 ....
Any Help would be nice ...., or any help to convert all the Artists to Album Artists could be a sort of workaround solution..
Regards Patwo

if you dont have many songs it wont show.
otherwise try reboot. hold home and sleep for 10 seconds, and then hold sleep for 3 seconds. otherwise click restore in itunes when plugged in

Company is merging with another company. How do I add other company's Bonjour/Messenger buddy list to our company's Bonjour/Messenger buddy list?

So the company I work for is merging with another company. Our company already has an internal Bonjour/Messages set up so that we can all communicate to each other. The company that we're merging with has the same.
How do I merge their Bonjour/Messenger Buddy List with our Bonjour/Messenger Buddy List so it's all in one list?
Much thanks!!!

Hi,
It will depend how and where the other computers are.
Broadly speaking any Mac computer on the same LAN using iChat or Messages with the Bonjour account enabled will see all the other Macs (The app reads the computer User's Contacts App (Address Book) My Card and broadcasts the name)
This works up to the point you go beyond 255 computers or devices.
The router will have one IP allowing for 255 devices to be connected.
To state this another way.
The Bonjour account in Messages or iChat is a self connecting, self populating Buddy list.
Your Name is read from the Address Book on older systems or the Contacts app in Mountain Lion and above at the one called the My Card and this is broadcast as your "Screen Name".
You see the names in the Buddy list that correspond to other peoples My Card.
On this iMac I am using I am "Ralph Johns"
On my G4 tower I am "Ralph G4" and on my laptop I am "Ralph MacBook Pro"
This means if I hook up the three using Bonjour I know which is which.
(As an aside this also allows me to separate them out on AIM and Jabber lists as well as I have the My Card for this computer and Address Cards for each others)

If a second-hand iOS device has been 'Activation locked' then only the previous owner can unlock it, either by providing you with the account ID and password, or by removing it from his list of devices (as he should have done before selling it) - please see http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4515
If you are unable to contact him to do this then I'm afraid you will not be able to use the device - there is no other way of unlocking it at all. Apple cannot unlock it for you.

New (unknown) people on my bonjour buddy list

hi folks,
so here's a weird one... a week or two ago, i noticed other users on my bonjour buddy list at my studio... just as a precaution, i changed the password on my wireless router, shut it down, and powered in back up, in the event these folks were piggybacking onto my wireless signal, but they're still there.
i even went so far as to message one of them, asking (as politely as i could) if they were on my network, and they promply disappeared without responding.
any idea on this? it's probably not a big deal, but i'm just curious.
thanks!

Hi wymanwyman,
Welcome to the Apple Discussions
Unfortunately for the Bonjour side of things it is a little more difficult to be as secure as you wnat.
It is Zero Confiuration and that does not need any routing or other settings for the Mac to discover other Macs.
Start here http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107800
One wat is to change the Workgroup name that Rndezvous/Boinjour uses to do this.
In Applications/Utilities open Directory Access
If needed use the padlock and your Admin password.
Click on the line with SMB at the bottom of the list
Click the Configure Button.
In the Popout change the WORKGROUP name to something that only you would know/use.
Click Ok/Apply.
This should stop other people accessing your Network via Bonjour or it's previous name Rendezvous.

Possible to streamline all buddy lists (jabber+aim+bonjour) to single?

Is it possible within leopard iChat to streamline all of my account buddy lists to a single list rather than having multiple windows - similar to the way Adium allows?

Not the Buddy Lists in iChat 4.
The Chats (text) yes.
However you can use the Jabber side and arrange for a AIM transport and put all your contacts in the Jabber Buddy list.
