Ichat cannot change server setting, cannot connect

iChat cannot connect. Read it somewhere that I should change server setting from 5190 to 443 after logging out. But the server setting will auto and immediately change back to 5190. Won't let me change to 443. Please help. Thank you.

Hi,
"Safe" is a relative term here.
iChat, when you restart it will recreate them.
com.apple.ichat.AIM.plist (or the Jabber one) only hold the Login details and will force a fresh login to the relevant server.
com.apple.ichatAgent.plist This holds surprising little info.  Mainly it holds the info order for the iTunes is Playing script (Artist, Album and Track etc.).  It holds the default Idle time (and then of course if you are Idle)
As iChatAgent actually does the login is hold pointers to the other .plists.
com.apple.ichat.SubNet.plist  Holds the Bonjour info (or rather where to get it in the Address Book).
The Status Messages one does what it says.  It will hold all the Status Messages you have Created and decided to Keep.
com.apple.ichat.plist  This holds everything else.  Everything in the Preferences accept the Account Pane.
SOme of the Menu Items depending which window is Front.
Examples.  The Sort Order of your Buddy listt from the View Menu (when the Buddy List is "front". This can be a 2 pass setting (As in Avaible and Alphabetical). The capabilities shown in the Connection Doctor. (Video Menu).
It does hold a list of all the account you have in the Preferences  and some info is then pulled to Display the Accounts in the iChat Menu and the Buddy List windows in the Window Menu
Most important it holds the default or other Font you chose in Messages in the Preferences, whether that font is Coloured, the colour of the IM Background (Balloons or other style).  (Which Style form the View Menu > Messages). Whether you are saving transcripts of the Text Chats, and in iChat 5 what part of an old chat it displays.
If you were using Incoming Overrides you lose that setting.
All your Alerts settings both Globally set in Preferences > Alerts and those set in a Buddy's Info Card
I could probably list more.
If you have a problem then it pays to tackle the .plist one at a time so that you know which one "Fixed" it.
Deleting them all in one go is often too heavy handed.
When I have a clear idea as to which one may be causing the issue I will list that one only.

  • TS4002 iCloud not working in Apple Mail - cannot change server settings as they are greyed

    I have been having some issues with Apple Mail for a while - constantly being asked for passwords, etc. Then some days my iCloud mail will not work at all. It then magically comes back to life after a day offline. This has been happening regularly since the move from Mobile Me to iCloud.
    I have read a few threads about Keychain, etc, but so far nothing I have tried has worked.
    Any suggestions?

    Luke:
    Sorry that I cannot give you an answer.  I am having the same problem.  I have the correct exchange settings.  I even turn off autodiscovery and set the external and internal servers to the same settings.  Mail partially works, but it will "forget" older email items when they are still in an inbox.  This is NOT an issue with iOS, so I think there is a bug in the Mail program.  I am still searching for an answer as well.  Right now I am resorting to exchange webmail on my mac.  This seems to be only a mail problem.  My calendar and tasks sync fine.

  • Cannot change synchronize setting for contacts!

    Hello!
    I have 2 emails set up on my BB curve 8520. When i added contacts i somehow added some to sync on one email and some on the other. Now when i sync to microsoft oulook it only adds contacts from one e-mail. I tried to edit the sync option on my contacts but it wont allow me to make that change. It would like to avoid having to re edit all those numbers. If i could have microsoft outlook sync the contacts from my other email that would be much easier. Thanks, TZ.

    Hello dreamfarm and welcome to the BlackBerry® Support Community Forums.
    Sorry to hear you are having issues with your Contacts on your BlackBerry® Torch™ 9800 smartphone.

  • Cannot change mobile account settings, connected to Windows AD

    Hi!
    My Mac Book Pro, 15", 2-3 months old, Lion, 8GB RAM. I have also VMware Fusion 4.x installed.
    I also still have my old MBP 13", 2,5 years old with almost the same config, but VMware 3.x.
    Now to the strange thing.
    On the MBP 13" I CAN change settings for my mobile account but on the MBP 15" it is not poosible? How can it be different?
    Please see attached picture. Swedish "Flyttbart konto" = Mobile Account. Swedish "Inställningar" = Settings. As you can see it is not possible to edit/change settings........
    How do I make it possible to make changes in my mobile account? I want to sync other folders and so on......

    Hello bh8er,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having mail issues with your Mac. I also apologize, I'm a bit unclear on exactly what you are seeing/describing. What are you seeing when you go to Mail > Preferences and select the Accounts tab? Does it show more than one account in the left hand column, and does it allow you to select your account? What does it say for Account Type? You may also find the additional troubleshooting steps in the following article helpful, in particular the portion about using the Mail Connection Doctor:

  • Iphone4 wont connect to home wifi connects to neighbors..others iphones ipads connect to this wifi cannot change it and cannot access apps store. Does nor request password just "cannot access"

    Iphone 4 wont connect to home wifi but connects to neighbors open wifi.  Family members with iphones can connect to the wifi automatically and Mac compiuter in home connects to this wifi and this iphone did connect automaticcally until a few weeks ago.  Does not request password when try to connect to own wifi..just says "cant access.". Also cant access the Apple apps store to purchase apps but all other function operate normally. Apple store tech says nothing wrong with phone. It connected to their wifi and coud access apps store from their wifi.     This iphone belongs to son who is autistic.  I am mother trying to resolve this issue and very frustrated.  Have reset router but no change.

    Based on the symptoms, your phone is fine, and the Router is the problem.   Try http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398.  Specifically the "forget this network" step.  I would also consider resetting the wifi network password.  Sometimes that will allow a connection.

  • Cannot change display resolution when connected to external display

    On my 2.0GHz 13" MacBook, I have no problem with the display resolution when connecting to external display/projector when I am running in Mac OS, everything work perfectly! But things start to get messy when I am running in Windows VISTA 32 (installed within the Boot Camp 2.1). Whenever I connect to any external display/projector via a MiniDisplay-to-VGA cable, the resolutions on both my MacBook LCD and external display/projector drop to 640x480. And i am not able increase the resolution in the Display Settings. Does this mean that I have not installed the latest version of display drivers? Or is it that Apple did not provide the VISTA 32 drivers (in Boot Camp 2.1) that is compatible with the Mini Display port.

    Cool!
    I'm glad you have it fixed.
    Please resolve the thread so others can find your answer faster.

  • Why does RMI server sets its connection address?

    I use RMI for several years now and it is really great. But what I did not understand all this time: why the server has to inject its own address to a client. I only see disadvantages of this behavior and this is a big pitfall to all newbies using RMI (two nics, different networks connecting to one server).
    So my question is, what is the reason for this kind of design? Do I miss some essential security/network point?
    Probably a proper callback mechanism might be one reason, but what else?
    I don't need answers like it is all documented and it is easy. As I said I am used to it, but I believe it is not as easy as it sounds and it is hard to understand for a lot of people. I want to give you one example: We are developing and servicing products which are operated in closed private networks. For service and diagnostics we have to connect to these networks via VPN connections. In such cases it is hard to connect to the system applications because all the RMI servers insists on their own address/name which might be know only to the local network.
    Thanks in advance for your attention

    The registry and the server could be on different machines, so the client would know the address of the registry in order to lookup the remote object, but the registry would have to tell the client where the server is. That is, after all, the whole point of the registry!Ok I got this,
    Also, there are facilities to give the client a different address to the servers actual address. This is used in cases where, for example, the server is behind a NAT firewall. The server will only be aware of its internal address, but clients beyond the firewall will need to use the server's external address to reach it, so the objects returned from the registry will need to have the server's external address embedded in them even if the server and the registry are running on the same machine.Ok, so you have to set this to a reachable address for all clients. But in general the client already knows this since it reached the server already. So I don't see the point the server should have to change this afterward.
    However I still think only the first point is not enough to have so much hassle in all other environments. Do you know a way to override the registry or possibly the client registration to ignore what the server does say to it as the "real" address?

  • Cannot change tools and cannot use selection or crop tools

    I am using Photoshop Extended CS6.  A new problem has started to occur recently.  I can select a tool, but I can't change the tool type. For example, I can select the Lasso Tool and when I right-click the tool fly-out appears, but I cannot select a tool from the fly-out to change the tool type.  The editing tools, at least the ones I can select, still work except for the selection and crop tools.  For the crop tool, the crop lines appear at the edge of the image but they cannot be moved.  For the selection tools, nothing is selected.  I can still use menu commands such as Canvas Size.
    This happens when I open a file or start a new file.  I have Windows 7, 4G memory and nothing else running.  I have tried 32-bt and 64-bit versions.
    This has happened intermittently for a month or two.  In the past, freeing up space on a hard drive seemed to help.  But now I have 50G free on one drive and 30G free on another so I don't see how that could be the problem.  Rebooting allows me to use the crop tool once, but then the problem reoccurs.
    Ideas, anyone?

    No keyboard macro programs installed.  Microsoft Security Essentials is installed.  It says it is up to date and there are no problems.  A keyboard test program found no problems. I have tried two USB keyboards with the same results  I have 10% free on my system drive: and 15% free on my second drive.
    More clues:
    If I open Photoshop by opening a file, the problem immediately occurs. If I open Photoshop and then open a file, it works until I press a key as described above.
    The problem only occurs in Photoshop. I’ve tried lots of other programs, including Premiere, Audition and Illustrator; they all work correctly.
    The problem can occur without a keyboard attached.  As I described above, if I switch to another application (Windows Explorer in my test) and then switch back, the problem occurs.  This is true even if there is no internal keyboard and no USB keyboard.

  • Cannot start server, because cannot open .CMD file?

    I am a new person to the web logic server. After I install it from the CD coming
    with the book "j2ee applications and bea weblogc server", I found that I cannot
    start the default server at all. When I click start->program->...->start default
    server, there is always a dialog box asking me to find a proper file to pen the
    "startWebLogic.cmd" file. I donot know why it seems that my windows 98 machine
    cannot open the .cmd file.
    Could you please help me out of this problem? I searched throught this newsgroup,
    but it seems taht nobody ever had a similar problem.
    Thank you very much!
    Joanne

    A glance reveals that neither Windoze ME nor 98 is supported as a server platform,
    and 98' is only supported as a client for version 4.5.1. No joy.
    Speaking from experience, the worst part of working with a book like this is installation.
    I have an 'Oracle 81 Starter Kit' book at home gathering dust because I simply
    could not get it to install, not being an experienced Oracle DBA.
    This one looks better thus far. I'm further along already than I ever got with
    the Oracle book.

  • Cannot change setting in privacy from remember history to use custom settings for history. I can set in to change but on closing with the ok button thus closing the privacy tab, it then reverts back to remember history.

    I have been by a web sit that the cookies are disabled in the browser. on looking at the help on firefox help the instuction as i understand was to change the setting under the privacy tab ref history fromthe default setting of rember hhistory to use custom settings for history. I change the setting click ok but it reverts back to rember history. I just cannot change the setting.This also happend in the prevous version.

    To see History and Cookie settings in Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting <b>Firefox will: Use custom settings for history</b>
    You need to make at least one change to make "Use Custom settings" stay selected.
    If all history settings are the default then the History and Cookie setting revert to "Remember history" the next time you open Tools > Options > Privacy.
    So it looks that your cookie setting are already correct.

  • Cannot change apple id in app store

    In "app store" on my iphone 4, I find the icon "Apple ID" is blurred and cannot be pressed. Thus, I cannot change my apple ID (it is previously changed by my friend to his own one and now I cannot change it back!)
    Even in "Settings" => "iTunes & App Store", the icon "Apple ID" is blurred and cannot be pressed to change the current apple ID.
    Besides, I cannot change the setting in "Privacy"=>"Location Services". It is also blurred and cannot be pressed.
    "Face Time", "iCloud" and some more settings also have this problem.
    Is it a problem caused by the previous change in Apple ID?
    I am using a iPhone4, ios 6.1.3.

  • How to change Server Name on BPC Connection Wizard in Mass

    Hi there,
    I need to know if there's a way to change Server Name in Connection Wizard on a large number of PCs, using a configuration file that can be deployed to the PCs that need the change.
    Thanks for your response.
    Cheers,
    Rodrigo

    Apparently the Server name is stored under:
    HKEY_LOCAL_USER\Software\VB and VBA Program Settings\Outlooksoft
    5\LATEST for each user who uses BPC under the data containing "SERVER"
    So this is going to help on this requirement, previous a registry backup.
