Messages beta won`t login behind proxy

Hi There,
I`m using the Messages beta app behind a university proxy which accepts basically any protocol (HTTPS/HTTP/SOCKS5...) but requires authentication.
The problem I`m having is that any account (gmail, AIM etc) except iMessage works with a proxifier app eg. Proxifier or ProxyCap.
What I`m guessing is that iMessage uses a different protocol, but which one? If this is the case I could look for a Proxifier app that accepts the specific protocol.
Any guesses?

Hi,
I would use the iChat feedback page
I have heard of Google (possible Jabber account in General) not having a Proxy option in Messages beta
The AIM ones do but mostly points at using the System Preferences set ones.
In Previous versions the System Preferences ones tended to be the better option.

Messages Beta won't load my previous conversations and my contacts. What can I do?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Messages beta won't send to one of my contacts

Just downloaded Messages beta and it works fine except that it won't send iMessages to one of my contacts. She has an iPhone 4S and can receive iMessages from my iPhone4. Messages has no problem sending to my brother, who also has an iPhone 4S. Suggestions?

Hi,
Are you sending to her Name or her Apple ID ?
On her phone > Settings > Messages > Received At > Caller ID what does she have set ?
Your Phone is probably doing Phone Number to to Phone number (without even looking at the Apple ID) where as Messages is trying an Apple ID you have for her.

Messages Beta won't sign in with my apple ID

When i click sign in with my apple ID all i get is the loading wheel. i left it to watch a movie and when i came back it was still going.
Facetime for mac dose the same thing as well.
Any one know whats wrong or how to fix it ?

The AppleID account system operates a bit differently now.
When iCloud went into effect, Apple was encouraging people to unify multiple accounts and account types. Many people did, and some didn't (or the other way around.) There are security reasons why you may not want to.
Accounts can now have associated e-Mail addresses. And these e-Mail addresses can be verified (for better security) or not.
Messages ∫Beta requires that an e-Mail address be associated with the Apple ID you want to use.
So, I'll bet that you actually have more than one Apple ID. And I'll bet that the e-Mail address you prefer is associated with another other ID or that you have no e-Mail address available on that Apple ID account.
When you enter your Apple ID in Messages, and the gear is spinning it means that it can not automatically associate and e-Mail address and it is waiting for you to key one in.
But, if an e-Mail address that you attempt to use is already associated with another Apple ID you will get a notice that says it is unable to verify & use because it is already associated.
So, go to appleid.apple.com log–in (as manage your account) with any new & old accounts that you can remember and see what e-Mail addresses are associated with each of them.
Also, occasionally when initially installing the Messages ∫Beta, you may have to power down your system a second time after you attempt to set up the account. This seems to be a hang, as it is waiting for a valid e-Mail address to be entered.
-Remember, this is a Beta version of the software.
-Good luck.

Messages Beta won't connect to my iPhone number

My iphone message app seems to be connected to my iphone mobile number. Messages in beta for my Mac is connected to my icloud (.mac) account. They don't talk to each other - ie, they are two separate accounts, so I can't see threads initiated on my computer on my iPhone and vice versa. How can I make them talk to each other?

Hi Gino,
When I go into Settings > Messages on my iPhone I don't get an option to change or add my iCloud settings. What am I missing? Thanks.

Messages Beta doesn't work behind corp firewall

Any suggestion on this using like port 80 or 8080 to send messages to iPhone and iPad? Thanks!!!

No, you can't change the ports used by Messages. All you can do is open the port required by Messages in the firewall.
Using iChat with a firewall or NAT router

When my computer hibernates, why won't messages beta log me back in to my various accounts?

When my computer comes out of sleep, it's logged out f aim and gchat accounts at least - can't tell about messages - and won't log back in. The reliable way to log back in is to diable and re-enable each account. This works every time, but makes the beta extremely annoying. Any thoughts on settings I might need to change or...?

HI,
In the Messagfes > Preferences > Accounts disbale the "Use this Account" Box in the account Info section on all the accounst you normally login.
In the Server Settings check if they are using SSL.
If AIM Logins disable SSL.
If these (logins) get dropped they need Manually resetting (just Disabling the "Use this Account" and re-enabling)
This is due to the way the AIM server handle SSL and the way in which iChat and Messages beta handles this.
However the NON SSL login will tned to reconnect on it's own.
Jabber logins tend to be stuck with SSL (But alos do a better job of staying Logged in (Non Sleep sessions)

Empathy longstanding issue behind proxy

There is a longstanding issue of empathy (or telepathy-gabble) behind proxy.
I have tried to get solutions for years. Here is the description:
Settings:
* I am behind a proxy.
* I have set the system proxy settings and http_proxy/socks_proxy in the environment.
* The latest version of empathy (3.12.1)
Issue:
I use empathy to login GTalk account. The authentication worked fine. However, there is
an error "Network error" showing in the dialog. This happened before displaying
my contacts. I googled this issue and found that something wrong with telepathy-gabble.
So, I abandoned empathy for a long time.
But, recently, I use a newly registered google account to login GTalk with empathy.
Everything is well. I can chat with others. Still, I cannot login with my old account.
This seems wired. I asked others to try their accounts, some of them can login without problem
and some still have problem.
For years, I can only use GMail in the browser to access my gtalk. I know this is about
empathy rather than Arch Linux. But, I like this community and believe someone could help me.

Hello Enrique,
I fully agree - but unfortunately there is not much choice regarding the network layout. Or at least I cannot influence it ;-P
The problem seems to be a bit mor subtle than I thought at first. I already have configured both Web Start and the browser to use the proxy. However, the error message clearly indicates that the integration builder (IB) doesn't use the configured port of the proxy to connect to the web application server, but another port.
Our server listens on port 50000. The error message tells me that the IB tries to connect using port 50004. Obviousely it tries to open a direct socket to the server - probably an extra connection to exchange commands etc (RMI? CORBA? WebServices?). This is not possible in our network configuration.
The question ist whether I can somehow influence this port to make a connection using this proxy possible...
Regards, Joerg

OSX 10.10.3 Messages app won't start - unresponsive

Since my upgrade to OSX 10.10.3 from 10.10.2 on my 1.7 GHz Intel Core i7 8GB MBA the Messages app will no longer open for me. I do receive notifications of Messages, but as soon as I attempt to open the app it becomes unresponsive and pegs the CPU.
I've never used Messages beta on this system, no corporate security junk (i.e. Intel/McAfee), just plain ole 10.10.3 on an MBA.
I've submitted a crash report to Apple on every occurrence. Just wondering if someone has found a simple workaround.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

Connection Problem while client is behind proxy and server out side proxy

hello
i implemented ChatApplication in JAVA, for that i used socket connection when client and server both are in same network then it's working fine.
but when my server is on internate and client is behind proxy and try to connect with server
it not able to connect i get exception.
i serch most of forum i got same answer and i try it but i was not success.
any kind of help is appriciated.
i attached my code(which i implement for testing ) pls reply me
thanks in advance.

             System.out.println(line);     // Output the line

      catch(Exception e) {
         System.out.print("Whoops! It didn't work!\n");
     e.printStackTrace();
}

Now look here. I could not care less about this
code. I don't know anything about it, I don't
want to know, I have already recommended you don't
use it, and I have also given you a simpler and
better solution. If you don't want to take my advice
that is your privilege and your problem.ya i has understand system propertis i have setted and u can see it in the code i have tried by both system properties and also J2SE 5.0 proxy class but i got a same problem malformed Exception server refuse to connection.
is there any problem at sever side?
can u tell me in which way u r teling to set the propery i m looking forward for ur reply.
ya i m sure u will give me.................reply "ejp".
Thnx in advance.

How do you use multiple apple id's with messages beta?

With the wife and myself each having our own apple Id's for imessage because of multiple iphones/ipads, how do we make messages beta on the mac work for us? I tried logging in as me when I installed it and it works just fine with me messaging her and her back to me but how do I log out from me and log in as her if she were the one sitting at the mac? I don't see anything that lets me do that.

hmm, that's a trick one! what I would do is go to Messages>preferences>accounts and then select imessages and then select account details and then sign out. Then your wife will need to sign in with her apple id.
hope this helps!!
let me know if that works because I've never actually tried it.
simply adding both of your accounts to be reached at will prove to be faulty because when you reply you can only reply with the one email address. And even if you switch caller id's it probably still won't work. So I think my method would be the easiest way to do that at this time.

Can't open any apps downloaded from the internet after installing application loader update and messages beta

I've run into an unusual problem recently. I think it it related to two recent software installs.The problem only started after i installed the new application loader.
My issue : I'm unable to open application I downloaded from the web. I get the following error message below.
Question: Has anyone else run into this issue and do you have a solution?
Thanks for you help.
P.S I haven't tried rolling back the lastest softwarte installs yet. I'm hoping I can avoid that.

When I press cancel nothing happens. I can do nothing and it still won't load the program.
