Messenger

Hi Guys

Thanks

theres is a way by using jabber you can talk to people over msn on ichat if you google the question or a combernation of jabber msn and ichat you should get your answer. but it is awquard. you can use yahoo messanger that has a good web cam and talk to msn buddies but you carnt web cam them....... another option is programmes such a AMSN that you can download that you can use your msn account and web cam people on msn but its not the best feed.... the last option is you cann split you imac to have osx and windows xp on if you do that you can then download the xp version of msn but you have to be logged on to xp not osx..

  • Yahoo Messenger (Sprint Pre): No account button! only one Y! at a time?

    Hi,
    I have a Sprint Pre, and I have a Yahoo IM account set up in my Messaging application. Works great, tho sometimes it does take a long time to sign in or needs me to sign out then try signing back in for it to succeed in signing in.
    When I go to Accounts and Preferences, and go to the Add Account menu, I only see two buttons, one for adding a google account and one for adding an AIM account.
    I'm just checking: should I see an option to add a Yahoo IM account also? or does the fact that I already have one set up mean that I can't add another one, and the button not being there is a reflection of that?
    I'm a little nervous in case I ever had to delete the Yahoo IM account or if I ever have to re-setup the account. If I do, will that button be there again?

    Yahoo Messenger isn't natively supported on the Palm Pre/Pixi, and all signs point to it not ever happening. This is a known issue and has befuddled Palm users since the device came out. There is yet to be any work-arounds that I'm aware of.
    When you say "messaging application", what app are you using specifically?

  • Songs don't show up in Windows Live Messenger after itunes 7.0.1 update

    The topic line pretty much says it all. I've checked the settings in Messenger. I'm not sure the songs are supposed to show up in Messenger from itunes, but they always have and I like that feature.
    Since updating itunes from 7.0 to 7.0.1 this feature doesn't work. I wonder why apple doesn't test their stuff before releasing it anymore. They're getting as bad as Microsoft anymore, which is a shame. I'm referring mainly to the larger problems with itunes 7 rather than my petty problem here.
    Any help would be appreciated though. Thanks.

    I had the same problem!!!!
    in windows live messenger (msn 8.0) go 2 tool>options & make sure the show song information from WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER as a personal messeger box is ticked!
    then sign out of the messenger, close it & itunes, then open up windows live messenger, sign in, then open itunes @ start playing ur songs!
    this worked for me. hope it works for u.
    good luck!

  • Accidentally Moved Blackberry Messenger Into Wrong Folder - How Do I Move Back?

    Hi Guys, I accidentally moved Blackberry Messenger into the SMS and MMS Folder instead of just moving the icon around.
    Please advise how I move it out of this folder and back to the Home Screen?
    Thanks,
    PETER

    Scroll to the icon > press the Menu key > Move to Folder > and choose which one you would like it put in, Home Screen, if that is where you want it.

  • Satellite Pro M30 Win 7 - webcam does not work on msn messenger

    Hi all
    I have a Satellite Pro M30 Modell Nr.: PSM35E and have just changed to Windows 7. But the Nvidia Card NVIDIA GeForceTM FX Go5200 Grafik mit 64 MB RAM does not work properly.
    I could find a driver from Vista and installed it, have Aero pics on the desktop, but my webcam does not work on msn messenger and this is the only way for me to see my family.
    Can someone help me?
    Thanks for your help

    Hi
    Im a little bit confused; do you have some problems with the graphic card or with the webcam?
    I assume you are speaking about external webcam connected to the USB port? Right?
    What happens if you connect the webcam to the notebook? Can Win 7 recognize the connected device? Did you install additional drivers for this webcam?
    In most cases its necessary to do that because I think its not plug & play device.

  • Blackberry messenger 5.0.0.33 - options to send pics or file or voice note is not available

    I updated the blackberry messenger from the pre-loaded version 4.7.1 to the latest version of 5.0.0.33.  I was able to send pictures, voice note, and file during a chat session by clicking the trackball to bring up the menu and click "send voice note" or "send picture".  This option is no longer there in the 5.0.0.33 even though the user manual indicate this function is there.
    Anyone has the same problem?  Where can I download the previous version (4.7.1 for tour) and how to re-install the previous version of the blackberry messenger?
    Thanks for your help

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    You have not updated to the current BBM version...you are on an old version. The current version is 5.0.0.57...
    Good luck!

  • Wont let me install facebook, facebook messenger or spotify apps, i use to have facebook messenger and facebook app on my ipod and now its saying i have to upgrade to ios 6, but it wont let me upgrade!!!!!!

    i use to have facebook, facebook messenger on my ipod touch, and recently i upgraded to ios and now it wont let me reinstall the apps, says i need to upgrade to atleast ios 6, but it wont let me ugrade to ios 6 says it has no upgrades, that the current version is the newest!!! this is crap... how can something work and then now it doesnt work when its suppose to be improved??
    Any suggestions would help

    You can likely download the last compatible version by:
    Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
    App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
    App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
    You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

  • I need help with resetting my ichat. When i try to login now it wont let me... it says "AOL Instant Messenger password" and then "iChat can't log in to ... because your login ID or password is incorrect. How do I reset this if I cant log in?

    I need help with resetting my ichat. When i try to login now it wont let me... it says "AOL Instant Messenger password" and then "iChat can't log in to ... because your login ID or password is incorrect. How do I reset this if I cant log in? When I try to press online the same thing pops up and I have no way of logging in or asking for help.

    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.

  • Lose connection to E1000 when using Windows Live Messenger

    I have a laptop running Vista which connects to the Internet through my Linksys E1000 wireless router.  We have installed Windows Live Messenger, v2011 on the laptop, but whenever we try to login, the E1000 appears to crash.  It is still running, but we cannot get an Internet connection on any computer in the house.  I must then reboot the E1000 and the DSL modem in order to restore the Internet connection.  I spoke with Linksys technical support for over an hour, and tried different things, but the E1000 continues to crash when Windows Live Messenger is used.  The technical support person suggested that I may need to investigate "port forwarding" for WLM. Could this be the problem?  And if I find out which ports are used by WLM, and open these on the E1000, might this solve the problem?  We also tried using WLM from a different computer that uses the E1000 for internet access, and the same problem occurred.

    Follow this link to find the port numbers used by Windows Live messenger.
    Open these ports on your router and see if that works.

  • My messenger not working properly on my iPhone 6 freezes completely and I miss all my texts just not working. anyone else having this issue?

    I have already swapped this phone out once for a new I phone 6. First one I was having same issues with.
    Now I got the new one and it was good for about a month and now its doing it to but worse. It freezes completely.
    Won't let any of my text messages get through to me. All my messages disappear completely and randomly come back when they feel like it.
    This time its frozen where I can't even read any texts or get any texts and when I click on the messenger app it just goes to the NEW MESSAGE and won't let me get out of this screen. Should I once again take this back? or are all the iPhone 6's bad like this?

    It's not the iphones, it's more likely one or more of your programs causing this issue. It's not the iPhone 6's. The possibility of you getting 2 bad iphones from different batches is extremely remote or you have the worst luck on the planet. lol    If one iPhone has it, then you get a new one and the same problem comes up again, it's most likely due to an issue with a program that you keep getting back from restoring an old backup. Restore the iphone again and set up as a new iphone. Then manually import your music and your photos. Once that's done, try to use your iphone to see if everything is ok. If it works good for a few days, then try to add some of the apps. At some point, you'll end up loading the malicious app and the problem may come back. Make sure that the apps are all updated. If you still have problems, call Apple so that they can run a diagnostic report and find out which app is causing this issue. Then you can simply delete it and/or update the app. More solutions are available but that's all I will post for now.

  • Firefox will not open from the start menu or the taskbar, but WILL open when called from Windows Live Messenger

    This started a couple weeks ago, but doesn't seem to coincide with any other installations or reconfigurations, so I'm having trouble getting at the root cause.
    The first time I run Firefox after installing, it runs fine (complete with a full list of add-ons.) If I then close FF and try to start it from the task bar or start menu, nothing happens. I've tried starting in safe mode (shift+FF), but get the same result. I've restored FF to all the default settings, disabled all my plugins and add ons, but no change.
    The really odd part is that if I click the 'Inbox' link in my Windows Live Messenger, FF opens perfectly. This made me think that it was my homepage causing the issue, but A: I can go to that page without problems once FF has started from WLM, and B: even if I use the FF default homepage or google.com, I get the same problem. Furthermore, if I restart FF from within FF (like after I disable/enable an add-on), it will also start properly.
    No crash report is generated by FF when it fails to load, but Windows catches the problem in it's event log. I've pasted the contents of that record at the bottom in the hopes that someone can take a stab at what's wrong.
    Finally, I've already run through the online crash help, but everything is either not related (since FF will start if called indirectly) or has already been prevented (absolutely no add-ons are running at the moment.)

    I have exactly the same issue. After FF upgraded on its own to version 5, it won't open from start menu, taskbar, desktop icon, or even by pressing firefox.exe in program files directory. It does so by pressing a link at msn messenger, inside Outlook etc.
    Disabling all addons, didn't help. Moreover, I can't start FF in safe mode or start profile manager (Start > Run> firefox.exe -ProfileManager).
