Full Chat History Accessible on All Clients

Looking through the threads about chat history it appears Skype only syncs 30 days of chat history on all devices. I can understand a complete sync of history on all devices being a problem since sync implies the actual history would be stored on each device. But, regardless of sync, we should still be able to get access to all our chat history no matter what client we're using. If sync is an issue, can't Skype just not sync anything older than 30 days, but allow access to ALL chat history when you're "connected"? For me, this is probably the ONLY reason that I still use Google Hangouts. If Skype could add access to ALL chat history from all (or most) I would gladly switch to Skype as my primary chat app.

If i had a bbm contact and deleted it is there any way i can find the full chat history i had with this person if my ''save chat history" was disabled??

  • Chat history displayed correctly in Outlook, not showing in Lync 2013 client

    Morning all,
    It seems like I have an un-searchable issue with many hits returning that conversation history flat out doesn't work, which isn't the situation here...
    The backend consists of Exchange 2007 with Lync server 2013. Clients (a mix of Lync 2010 and 2013, XP and 7 respectively) have no issues connecting and the chat history works fine from Outlook, however, on the client, conversation history is not displayed
    and we are just given the option to "View more in Outlook..." (Which again works fine).
    Is the chat history not meant to be displayed within the Lync client or are there any options or boxes that I have left unchecked that could cause this issue?
    I've checked any addons on Outlook that sound as though they might be in any way affiliated with Lync and ensured they're ticked to no avail.
    I'll be happy to follow up with any further information if my explanation is a bit cloudy.
    Cheers.

    The Lync client will attempt to connect to Exchange Web Services in order to display items like Conversation History and Visual Voicemail.  If it cannot connect to EWS, it will fall back to a MAPI connection via the Outlook client.  The MAPI connection
    will allow chats to be deposited in the Conversation History folder and display presence information within Outlook and a few others, but the EWS connection provides a richer experience. 
    You can check how it is connecting by holding CTRL + right click on Lync system tray icon.  Then select Configuration Information.  You should see items for EWS internal/external URL, MAPI Information, and EWS Information.
    Unlike Outlook, Lync does not use the Autodiscover SCP to locate EWS.  Lync relies on the Exchange Autodiscover DNS A record to be setup both internally and externally.  Assuming Autodiscover and EWS are working properly, the following are required
    in order for Lync to connect to EWS successfully:
    - User's SIP URI and Primary SMTP address should match
    - Autodiscover.sipdomain.com DNS A record setup internally and externally for each SIP domain supported
    - EWS Internal/External URLS accurately configured on Exchange
    Let us know what you find.

  • Does Jabber Client 9.6 have the option to save Chat history within Outlook 'Conversation history' like Lync does?

                       Does Jabber Client 9.6 have the option to save Chat history within Outlook 'Conversation history' like Lync does?
    Any guidance/response would be greatly appreceiated. thanks in advance.

    The latest release of Jabber allows you to save the chat you had in html by enabling EnableSaveChatToFile
    But yes, IM&P requires a separate server in which to hold all the messages that go thru the server, this is for management purposes, not really meant for users.
    Persistent chat will hold all the messages, but this also requires a separate DB server to hold them.
    You're free to use any other XMPP client you prefer which has this capabilities on the client side.

  • How do u move all of my whatsapp chat history

    I have a temporary new phone. Both are iphones. I wanted to transfer all of my chat history to my new phone. Which no longer has a sim but works on wifi.  I went to whatsapp settings and his backup chat history but its been 'backingup' for hours now. Is there another way?

    Is this info still on your old iPhone?
    Make sure on the new iPhone, you Restore from backup and select the backup of the old iPhone.
    If you did it correctly, it will be on new iPhone.
    if you did not do it correctly, nothing from old iPhone will be on new iPhone.

  • Skype won't let me delete all my chat history

    I followed the instructions on how to delete all my chat history and I tried to delete it but then it said 'Cant delete history while calls are going on'. I wasnt calling anyone at the time so I dont understand why this is happening every time I try to delete my chat history. Can someone help me here? Thanks.

    Go to the Summary tab and check "Sync only Checked Songs and Videos."  Then go to the Music tab and select "Sync Music" and "Entire Music Library".  Then exit the iPhone section and go to your main music list on iTunes.  From there, check off only the songs you want to sync.  Then sync your iPhone.
    Also, on the iPhone, to delete a song, go to your Songs list and swipe left or right on a song's title.  A Delete button should appear - press that.  As long as the song is checked in iTunes, though, it will come back the next time you sync.

  • View chat history for all users and prevent them f...

    "I need to be able to view chat history for all users in the organization and prevent them from deleting their chat history.  This needs to be done form a centralized admin portal and not on each workstation. I don’t see that as possible with Skype for Business.  If it is please let me know. That is a must-have. The rest I can work around. "
    Can anyone please provide documents that confirm if its possible or not.

    Well, I had the same problem today.  What I did was reboot my iPhone 4 and it worked.  If there's anyone experiencing this issue, try this.

  • IChat - Synching Chatting History from multiple devices on same account

    I currently have the iChat server up and running on a MacMini running OS X 10.6.4. I see in the iChat client on my MacBook Pro where it will load past messages when I open a chat with a buddy. I am also running a jabber client on my iPhone (IM+ is the iPhone app). What I am curious about is if there is a way to load chat history for the account, not just from the device.
    For instance, when using Skype the following will occur. I can chat on my iPhone, and then when I login to my Laptop, the history of chats sent from my iPhone will be added to the history on my Laptop. I am trying to prevent having to look back at every device I use my jabber account on to find that one IM message that has the information I need.
    Is there a way to sync the account on all clients (or at least just my MacBook Pro) so I can view chats there sent from all my devices and not just from my Laptop?

    Tim,
    I have turned on the logging feature inside of the iChat server, and I have seen all IMs being sent are saved.
    So do you think this is more of a client side problem of not being able to sync from the Message Archive on the OS X Snow Leopard 10.64 iChat server? Meaning that if the IMs are being saved, then all that really needs to be done is to create a client that will access the server log and do a compare of its local saved history with the server saved history and then takes any missing IMs and adds to its local history log?
    Am I far off base on this, or does this seem feasable?

    Hi,
    Base on my lab machine (Windows Server 2008 R2 DC, Windows 8.1 client). either domain admin user or domain standard user, they all work fine.
    What's your environment? Did this issue occur on all domain user or specific one?
    In some cases, File History may conflict with the enterprise policies (like retention policy). I suggest you contact your IT admin to see if there is some other policy to limit this.

    With regard to saving BBM chat history on the Z10:
    1. Can saved BBM chat history be searched (other than by manually scrolling through vast amounts of text)?
    2. Can saved BBM chat history be transferred, let's say, as a text file, for archiving and searching by some other means / on some other platform?
    2.a. I understand that one can "email a BBM chat", but only a handful of the latest lines of a chat are incorporated into an email - not useful if one is looking to copy older excerpts?
    2.b. Where is BBM chat history saved? Device? SD card? Is there a directory path that we can follow to access the history?
    3. What is the purpose of saving all of this history if it cannot be efficiently accessed / searched / archived / used?
    Thanks for any insight.

  • Save Jabber chat history in outlook

    Hi
    We are rolling out BE6k's for customers, and one question keeps surfacing: if there is a way to save employee chat history, and search it.
    I realize there are 2 sides of this... one being a way to save it, and the second is being able to search (and moderate) the chat history.
    Ideally, the chat history could get saved to Outlook the same way Lync does... in a simple folder in Outlook.
    As for searching chats, it's important to be able to go back and pull them up.
    This is also being asked from some government agencies and smaller financial institutions as they want to be able to go through chats for compliance (and other) reasons.
    Is anyone aware if this can be done natively within the Business Edition 6000/7000 series (running 10+) OR if there is a third party application that does this?  
    Thanks!

  • Saving Chat History

    Hi all,
       I'm trying to make text chat application using shared object. I'm using api Shared.getRemote("so",m_nc,true); to make the data persistent. It makes the file with extension fso. I want to save the chat history in notepad for further reference, and also load that data as per requirement. Please help.
    Thanx in advance.

    Do you want to write the file on the server side, or on the client side?
    On the server side, use the File class to create a text file and write a line to it each time a chat message comes in.
    On the client side, you'll need to use AS3/Flashplayer 10 to use the FileReference class (see the save method) to write. In this case, the user will be prompted to create a file location using the browse dialog.
    If you want this to be invisible to the end user, do it on the server side.

  • Recover bbm chat history

    hi
    i m using Blackberry Curve 9380.
    i wish to recover my complete bbm chat history which i accidentally deleted while trying to delete a particular contact history.
    let me tell you what exactly happened.
    1) opened a particular contact chat window
    2) pressed BB Menu and scrolled up to press"view chat history"
    4) pressed BB menu and that's here where you get two options a) delete contact history and b) delete complete history.
    so i accidentally selected "delete complete history" which erased my entire saved chat history with all contacts.
    i wish to recover and view all of them in original format, what i mean by saying original is, after recovery i wish to view them all in bbm just as we normally view chats in bbm as i also want to capture some screenshots of particular chats which are very important in nature, as they happen to be associated with my business clients.
    although i have chats saved in media card  in .csv formal which is viewable in excel, but i dont wish to view them in excel format. i wish to view them in bbm.
    is there a way how i can do that. is there a way to view chats in bbm that are saved as excel files. Please help as it is very important. advice me on any particular application or software available to view bbm chats as we see them bbm.
    please please help. thanks

    Hey rajkumar_bharti,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    Thanks for the question.
    If you deleted the history it can not be restored in BBM.  The saved chats you do have can be viewed in CSV format but it will not be viewable in BBM.
    My apologies, let me know if you have any more questions.
    Cheers.
