Do you have an instant messenger?

want something less invasive than AIM or yahoo. This is for business purpose would also like this on our cell phones.

hi, well you're at a firefox support forum, so probably anyone here will confirm that that's a good choice :-)
but joking apart, since contrary to those other browser vendors you have mentioned, mozilla is a non-profit organisation which can put the interest of its users on top of its action you can argue that this will make its actions inherently more privacy focused. for some background and initiatives in this regard you can see https://www.mozilla.org/privacy/you/
in regards to thunderbird & instabird - those are an email program and a instant messenger based on mozilla technology (you asked about that in your original statement). those are just clients though which can be used to connect to a number of different chat networks operated by third-parties, mozilla doesn't run a chat service itself (similar like with outlook and your email provider for example).

New Firefox does not allow me to add attitional bookmarks. I can delete but I cannot add a new site or sites. Do you have an instant fix for the problem?

I have xp and have always been able to use bookmarks. The new Firefox allows me to go to a site with bookmarks, delete bookmarks, but I cannot add a bookmark by clicking on the star.
Also, Ebay's pages have smaller print (and pictures) than they should have - Google has the correct print and picture size. There is something wrong with Firefox.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

SKYPE INSTANT MESSENGER FROM AN ANDROID THAT DOES NOT HAVE THE SKYPE APP

I HAVE A LENOVO HARD-WIRED TOWER & WINDOWS 8.1 OPERATING SYSTEM. MY FRIEND, DAVE, HAS AN ANDROID PHONE - HIS PHONE DOES NOT HAVE SKYPE INSTANT MESSENGER, BUT ANOTHER INSTANT MESSENGER THAT SHOWS A LIGHTNING BOLT. DAVE IS ONE OF MY SKYPE CONTACTS. WHEN I SEND DAVE MESSAGES VIA SKYPE INSTANT MESSENGER, HE CAN SEE MY MESSAGES, BUT I CAN NOT SEE HIS. ANY SUGGESTIONS, ADVICE? THANK YOU. SIGNED, GINA

Hi! The obvious solution to this would be having your friend download skype from google play store. that way you're both on Skype, and it's free aswell. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.skype.raider

With blackberry instant messenger, can anyone find out what you have been typing once cleared

dying to know if boss can see what im typing or retreive what i sent to friend on the blackberry instant messenger service.
my boss is very nosy and yes i know its their phone, but still wondering if it can be retreived like txting or email???
thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Agree with JSanders - why take the chance? If you're doing something you shouldn't on a corporately-owned device, you're just asking for trouble.
As far as turning on logging for BlackBerry Messenger, you'd know it was on since the way it works is you'd see an item in your Sent Items that is a record of all of your BBM chat being sent to whatever email address the BES Admin set up.
It's not something that is done 'behing the scenes' like logging text messaging or phone calls. The user KNOWS they are being tracked for BBM.

I have a window that is "AOL Instant Messenger Password" I do not even use this and cannot find out how to delete it.

I have not been able to find AOL messenger on my Mac mini. The window asks for my me.com password, when I enter it, it doesn't work, and when I hit the cancel button it will not go away. How do i get rid of this???

This is probably Messages. If you have ever used iChat/Messages with an old MobileMe/.Mac chat name, that is actually using AOL services in the background. If that rings a bell, that's the password it's asking for.
If you no longer want this, go to Messages, Preferences, Accounts, and delete any old accounts you're not using.

I keep seeing "You have been disconnected from chat because you have signed in to Yahoo Messenger from another computer or device". I would like to know what this means.

I keep seeing "you have been disconnected from chat because you have signed in to Yahoo Messenger from another computer of device" Please explain to me what this means.

what does "you have been disconnected from chat because you have signed in to Yahoo Messenger from another computer or device mean?

On certain websites, I cannot use instant messenger. It comes up as a "connection error". If I use IE8, I do not have this problem... I have the latest Java and Adobe Flash player downloads... what gives?

When attempting to use an instant messenger on certain websites, I keep getting a "connection error" message.... The IM pops up, it appears to start loading then I get the "connection error".

Hi,
iChat (it would help to know which version) can accept Apple IDs as valid AIM Screen Names.
However if you have iChat 5 or earlier you cannot use ones ending in @me.com or @icloud.com issued by iCloud. (they can be used in iChat 6 or Messages as these versions make a double login to AIM and Apple to allow the use of the password).
In addition if you are using an Apple ID for an AIM Screen Name the password still needs to keep to the 16 character limit that AIM has.
AN @mac.com name can be used on any version of iChat (Until the 30th June 2014)
As it does not need a double check with Apple you can use it to log in to the AIM Web pages
Login here with an AIM Name registered at AIM or and @mac.com name and see if you get any suspended account messages.
Sometimes account can be suspended. Usually because something has triggered the "Unusual Activity" item.
About a year ago many @mac.com users that travelled out of their own country found themselves suspended when they got home.
If the Name checks out of if an Apple ID the password in known to be 16 characters or Less then do this:-
In Lion upwards open a Finder Window and use the Go Menu whilst holding down the ALT key.
Select the Library that appears in the menu list.
Navigate to Preferences.
(If you have version earlier than Lion the just navigate to ~/Library/Preferences (that's the Library in you Home - Little House icon - folder)
Fnd com.apple.ichat.aim.plist (even if you are using Messages)
Drag the file to the Trash and Restart the app.

Little bit of thread and little bit of instant messenger design problem

OK! i have a small problem here, i am planning on making a instant messenger server and client, not compatible with any out there(as of yet) and not using any stansard protocols out there, just something i made on my own. ok now the problem i am trying to figure out is....i have a "Messaging Server" as the name suggests it sends messages from one client to the other, how it is setup is, client connects to this server, the server accepts and creates a new thread for this client and adds a message listener to this client handler thread. as and when the server creates this thread for the client, it puts it in a vector which is keeping track of every client connected to this server. so now when the client sends a message to another client, basically it goes through this server, the thread upon receiving this message, fires a method of the listener. this method takes the message, finds out who it is going to(therefore the userid) and seaches the threads vector to find the appropriate thread and then just creats another striped down message out of the received message and calls a method in that thread to send this newly created message and hence the message should be sent.(i am speculating, i still have not created this)
so the problem ia m logically facing is...at what point of time who is taking the load, what i mean by that is, when the thread receives the message, ofcourse it is this thread which is working is taking the load, but when the listener fucntion is fired which thread is handlign the call is it the client handler thread which fired the method or the messaging server thread which creates these threads?? now once that is solved, who(which thread) is doing the work when i call the fucntion in the other thread which i found aftre searching the vector. i mean i am thinking like this cuz i am not much in sink with the way threads work. i am also trying to figure out this to find out the load the server or the threads will be having.
algo example:
class messageServer
     vector currentWorkingThreads;
     messageListener listener;
     main()
          listener = new messageListener(); //should it be here or the other place i am mentioning below
          while(true)
               clientHandler = socket.accept();
               listener = new messageListener(); //should it be here or the other place i am mentioning above
               //create a thread and add this thread object to the vector
               thread.addLisenter(listener);
class messageServerThread
     string userid;
     messageListener lis;
     run()
          object obj = in.readObject();
          lis.sendMessage(obj);
     sendMessage(obj)
          out.writeObject(obj);
          out.flush;
class messageListener
     sendMessage(msSendMessage msg)
          //find the appropriate user thread
          loop(currentWorkingThread.next())
               messageServerThread msgThread = (messageServerThread)currentWorkingThread.element();
               if(msg.userid == msgThread.userid)
                    msReceiveMessage rcvMsg = msg.strip(); //dosent matter what this does, it just strips the unwanted info and returns the type msReceiveMessage
                    msgThread.sendMessage(rcvMsg);
and if this is something out of the line, or not a good way of doing it, can someone help me with the design it would be gr8.
thanx a lot

help would be greatly appreciated.

other, how it is setup is, client connects to this
server, the server accepts and creates a new thread
for this client and adds a message listener to this
client handler thread. as and when the server creates
this thread for the client, it puts it in a vector
which is keeping track of every client connected to
this server.ok so far.
so now when the client sends a message to
another client, basically it goes through this server,
the thread upon receiving this message, fires a method
of the listener. this method takes the message, finds
out who it is going to(therefore the userid) and
seaches the threads vector to find the appropriate
thread and then just creats another striped down
message out of the received message and calls a method
in that thread to send this newly created message andhere you seem to confuse the thread instance and the thread of execution. the thread invoking this method is still the event handling thread (i.e. the receiver thread of the socket). you do not need threads for delivering - this can be done by the receiving sockets' event handling threads. disadvantage: if processing of the message takes significant time then the socket is blocked and cannot process another message.
solution: put the message in an event queue which is processed by one or more threads. (see my example i e-mailed you)
robert
hence the message should be sent.(i am speculating, i
still have not created this)
so the problem ia m logically facing is...at what
point of time who is taking the load, what i mean by
that is, when the thread receives the message,
ofcourse it is this thread which is working is taking

handler thread which fired the method or the messaging

Why can't I open a long url in Instant messenger

I have a question for Instant messenger users . A friend of mine sent me a long url that took about 5
windows in instant messenger. I tried to open it, but it would not open. Are there any settings
I need to set on my IPhone 6 or instant messenger to make this work. Also why does it break it up into 5 separate IM windows??

Tell your friend to go to bit.ly to create a 'short URL' for that address.
They can send you that & you shouldn't have to worry about the SMS or any other messaging size limitations.
NOTE: there are many other URL shortener services…

10.4.8 and AOL instant messenger

doesn't anyone have any ideas how to help me fix this?
I can get it to work with a browser through AIM express, but shouldn't there be a way for me to get a client to work?

Cannot use instant messenger in Yahoo Mail anymore and don't know why

when I go into my Yahoo Mail, I cannot use instant messenger. If I click on someone on line nothing happens at all. I have been told to delete and reload this program (IM) but have tried repeatedly and cannot find it anywhere. Also tried contacting someone on facebook and got no response so I assume it's not working on the chat feature either

Known issue, our QA team working on it, See
* https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=713014
you can follow the bug by opening bugzilla account and add to CC list :)

Do you have an instant messenger?
