MSN messenger is still active in development, It has just been crippled - no Nudges, no msn games, no drawing, no a/v support etc..You can still do the basics; Talk to your friend, custom smileys/multiple convos.
Note you can't sort contacts by e-mail (a feature I missed from Windows). Adium does attempt to solve a few problems but the group convo feature with MSN doesn't work very well - I still prefer Messenger for Mac because it holds the general 'look and feel' of MSN messenger for windows. (Kind of :P).

  • Does Yahoo messenger work on Mac?

    Does yahoo messenger work on Mac? If not do any nobody know how to get it to work?

    Hi,
    It is  along time since I used it.
    My Understanding is that it is a cross between what iChat can do and a web feed of your Video and then an audio chat.
    iChat can Enter Chatrooms for Text chats only.
    These can be On-line or Chatrooms held on the AIM Server
    They can be chatrooms held between your Buddies (Group Chats)
    Separate to that iChat can do Audio or Video Chats, in some cases with Multiple people.
    IF a Buddy in a group Text chat is also in your Buddy list you can invite them toa video chat or an Audio chat but it is not the same as chatting "in the room".
    Last time I Checked Yahoo for Mac allowed you to continuously broadcast a Video stream which you can allow Buddies to see.
    You then add an audio Chat to that.
    As far as I am aware you cannot enter a text chat room and Audio chat with the people there  "en masse".
    Re ds store's link
    Yahoo is about to be added to iChat 6 in Lion.
    This is likely to be the same sort of Addition that Jabber (And therefore Googletalk) was, when that was added back in iChat 3
    iChat 5 can currently Video Chat from a Jabber/Google Buddy List on your iChat to any Buddy also using iChat if they are using a Jabber or Google Talk ID  (It cannot chat across different services)
    It Cannot Video to other Jabber apps, including the standalone PC app callled GoogleTalk.
    It cannot Video to someone using the Google Plug-in for Web Browser (PC or Mac) when they are logged in to the Google Mail Web Page and using the chat option there.

  • Does the timecapsule work with mac OS X 10. 4. 11?

    does it work with 10.4.11? Or only with leopard? If it does work with 10.4.11 what features does leopard have that 10.4.11 not have?

    Not exactly. The USB cable is only to connect printers and HDDs (or a combination of both using a USB hub). You will connect either to the network that the Time Capsule creates, or to the network that it is a part of (if you have it set to join an existing network) via ethernet or wifi. Then you should be able to see and access the HDD on the TC as a network attached storage drive (NAS). This means you can mount the TC on your desktop and use it as a regular HDD. It's at this point that you can copy the files over to it, or use a program such as SuperDuper and tell it to use the TC's HDD as it's target.

  • How does HP K8600dn works with mac OS 10.5?

    We're going to buy the lan printer HP OfficeJet K8600dn, but we haven't find yet information about compatibility.
    It will be used via ethernet.
    Does anyone have information about this printer?
    Tnx.
    Matteo

    Finally, we bought the printer, and I can write my own feedback for other users.
    It's a great printer, fast and with an high print quality.
    It's fully compatible with Mac OS 10.5, using the driver found at hp web site (the ones on the cd are older).

  • Does the Superdrive work with Mac Mini w/out server?

    I want to buy an external Superdrive for my old Mac Mini but I'm not sure it will work because of the information about it on the Apple website.
    It read, "Compact and convenient, the MacBook Air SuperDrive connects to your MacBook Air computer or Mac mini with Snow Leopard Server."
    What is meant by "a Snow Leopard server"?  I have Snow Leopard on my Mac Mini but it's not connected to a server.  It's a standalone computer in my home. Does that mean it won't be supported by a Mac Mini unless it is on a server?
    Thank you in advance for answers.

    If you're in the market for a new Mac mini, observe that the external SuperDrive is compatible with the newest Mac mini; in fact, it's offered as an option when you order one from Apple's site. The caveats linked to above are about Snow Leopard, which isn't supported on the newest machines — it won't even install without jumping through hoops.
    If you want to save money by buying the older version, do bear in mind that the CPUs on the latest models are significantly faster — for comparison, the 2011 minis, while slightly slower, are in the same ballpark as the 2011 iMacs, wheras the fastest 2010 mini is slightly slower than the slowest "early 2009" iMac.
    The new ones also have a Thunderbolt port.
    If you do decide to go the eBay route and you're concerned about buying a broken Mac, look for one covered under the AppleCare Protection Plan (you can verify coverage by getting the serial number and checking here), as it's transferable and, given that the last model was released less than two years ago, it'll have at least a year of coverage left.
    To be on the safe side, you should ensure the seller transfers the warranty with Apple — while they'll honor it regardless, a shady seller could request a pro-rated refund from Apple on the remaining AppleCare at any time after the sale, since they'll have proof of purchase and it'll still be in their name. Not sure how to do this, because I've never bought a Mac on eBay — the one time I tried several years ago, there seemed to be more scam artists than legitimate sellers (to be fair, I was in the market for a G5 tower when it was the current high-end and retailed for several thousand dollars).
    Finally, factory refurbished 2010 minis with full Apple warranties appear on the Apple store site (at a discount) from time to time.
    In case it isn't obvious, I'm in the market for a new mini myself.

  • Does Apple Remode work with mac mini

    I want to store and play videos from a mac mini to an HDMI port on a HD TV.  The videos (quick time files) would be in iTunes and an Apple Remote would be used to navigate.  Does the mac mini work that way?  I know this works fine with my iMac and a Apple TV set up.

    Yes it works.....

  • Does Airport express work with Mac os X.2.8?

    G3 with 10.2 and airport 3.1
    Airport express working properly with my ImacG5 and the Ibook G4 of my friend os 10.4 in 802.11b/g mode and WEP 128 bits.
    But my Ibook G3 still not detecting my network.
    I'm sure the airport card is ok, because I managed to use a local network with an other Ibook.
    Thank you for help.

    Yes you should be able to access the wireless network created by the AirPort Express regardless of which version of the Mac OS you are using.

  • How well does ESET security work with Mac ML?

    I'm running the MOUTAIN LION sysytem and I purchased the ESET CyberSecurity sofware from the Apple store.  It never mentioned that it wasn't compatibale , (only for 10.5 & 10.7) until I tried to download the program.  What do you suggest?

    The short answer is that there is no interoperability between them. Of course, you can certainly export a QT movie from FCP and bring it into C4.
    Honestly, I'm not sure it's worth it for someone already has C3. There is very little that C4 can do that C3 cannot. The major differences are that C4 has certain presets like  MPEG 4 h.264 and 1080 Apple TV; it can also create simple Blu Rays and DVDs. Qmaster is integrated, but I'm not sure whether that is a gain.

  • USB superdrive not working with Mac Pro

    Is there a trick to getting a USB Superdrive working with a Macpro?
    The drive in the Macpro no longer ejects and have tried connecting the USB drive to both the front and back ports - does it not work with Mac Pros?
    Any pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated.

    I had a problem my superdrive. It would play dvd's and cd's that were already burnt but would not burn blank DVDs or CDs- in the recent past it had no problems burning. In addition, the Finder would not display the superdrive. When I put a blank disc in it would go to Disk Utilities and would not allow burning. With help from Apple I discovered the problem-- The settings in CDS & DVDs had been changed from When you insert a blank DVD/CD "Ask what to do to  to  "GO to Disk Utilities". If this sounds like your problem try changing the settings to this:
    Try going to; System Preferences/ CDs & DVDs
    Change these two settings to this:
    When you insert a blank CD: Ask what to do
    When you insert a blank DVD: Ask what to do
    NOTE: If they are already set to this you probably have a different problem. If they are set to Go to Disk Utilitiy this is probably a solution.
    And
    Then go to Finder Preferences
    Make sure that under "Show these items on desktop:" that the checkbox for CDs, DVDs, and iPods is checked.
    Try to burn the DVD again (reload Disc- perhaps restart) and try again.
    Don't know how these setting changed but they did. It worked for me.
