Using OSX lion and I created an aim account but ichat will not let me login and says my password or username is incorrect!?

I have created an AIM account on my computer. When I go to sign into Ichat it does not let me sign in. It says my username/password is incorrect. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
Whenever I have created a Name at AIM then I have received an email to tell me (via the email I listed) that a name has been created.
Such as this:-
Thank you. An AOL account as been created using this email address.
To complete the registration and activate the account, please verify your email address by clicking the link below.
Yes, I made this request and I want to reserve this email address as part of the AOL account service
No, I did not make this request and I do not want my email address registered with the AOL account service
You will not be able to use this AOL account or make changes to the account until the registration is complete.
Thank you,
The AOL Team
(Some lines are links in the original)
The wording in the above is from an older confirmation email, I have a newer one has slightly different wording.
That is then followed by a "Thank for Confirming" email.
An @mac.com Apple ID that is also a valid AIM Screen Name is registered here
Keep the password to 16 characters or less (it's an AIM limit despite the prompts on the Site for longer).
The Apple ID (Using @mac.com) links one email to the @mac.com name. That email is a must but must not already be used with another Apple ID

AIM account on Messages keep going offline

Hello,
I recently installed Mountain Lion on my iMac (iMac10,1) and added my AIM account to Messages.
When I am using Messages, my AIM account frequently goes offline by itself (and sometimes reconnects again).
I was wondering if this has happened to anyone else and if there is a fix.
Thank you,

Ive had this problem as well. I have four accounts two of which are yahoo accounts, 1 gmail, and 1 icloud. I have found that when you go to system preferences and then mail,contacts... and you click on details and retype your password it usually works. If that doesn't work though go to your email providers page and log in there and make sure your proxy settings are correct. Step two solved my issue. Hope this works for ya!

AIM account in Messages for osx 10.8

AIM account in Messages for osx 10.8 is connecting and disconnecting in Messages for Mac.

Thanks for the suggestion, tried that empty the trash rebooted the system but no change… messages still connects and disconnects continuously every couple of minutes more or less :-(. What is baffling is that on a MacBook Pro using the same network connections messages as solid as a rock but my new iMac isn't. Tried to reinstall mountain lion using the recovery partition but no success either.

AIM account in Messages for osx 10.8 problems

AIM account in Messages for osx 10.8 is continually connecting and disconnecting in Messages for Mac. I have Mountain Lion 10.8.2 installed on a MacBook Pro 15 inch (10.8.2 installed over 10.7.4) with messages connections to AIM always working without a hitch, however, brand-new iMac 27 inch AIM and migrated home folder (using the same network connections) is continually connecting and disconnecting every 30 seconds or so. I have tried to delete the preferences, reinstall Mountain Lion using the recovery partition, erasing the disc and re-migrating but no success either. The only way I can get any use out of this AIM account is to keep the messages references open on the desktop and continually change the server settings between with and without SSL. All suggestions would be welcome.

Creating Inhouse Bank account: error message GL group not maintained

HI Experts,
while trying to create an Inhouse Bank account F9K1 I get the error message: General Ledger group is not maintained.
Indeed I`ve maintained the GL group in table TBKKCGRP for the relevant GL variant which is also assigned to my bank area. It`s weird, because, when I am opening the search help for the field General Ledger group on tab Control data under F9K1, all GL groups I`ve defined can be selected, but when I am trying to save my selection I get the message mentioned above.
Can someone explain me the reason for this?
Best regards
Tobias

Before it`s possible to assign a General Ledger group to a new account, the Customizing activity "Maintain Accounts for Payment Transactions" has to be finished.

How do i videochat with multiple people when using my aim account in messages?

Hi acsmith4840,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you want to sign into the iTunes Store with another Apple ID. The article linked below will walk you through signing into the iTunes Store and App Store on your devices with a different Apple ID.
iOS: Sign in with a different Apple ID in the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store

How can i import contacts from another AIM account to this new one

If you reference my last ichat question, you will see that I have had serious problems and had to create a new account.
How can I import contacts from another AIM account to this new one??

Hi,
Use AIM for Mac and use the Export and Import features.
Other than that it is a question on making sure every Single Buddy has more than just their Screen name in the IChat Address Card so it is added to the Address Book and dragging them back from there

I know my Apple Id (not .mac) and password but I can't logon to ichat. I keep getting a message of password not matched. Do I need to create a new account for Ichat?

I know my Apple Id (it isn't ".mac") and password but I can't log on to ichat. I keep getting a message of password not matched. I saw somewhere that my Apple id is the same as my ichat account. Do I need to create a new account for Ichat? I've already reset my Apple id password 3 times in the last 2 days. What am I doing wrong?

Hi,
At one time only Email IDs from Apple (when it was just @Mac.com) were referred to as "Apple IDs"
Other IDs such as to log in to Discussions were know as Discussion IDs
Things like the Online Store and iTunes and Apple realising that people would prefer one ID to have access to Everything tended to move things together.
There can be a variety of combos now
iChat Name
@mac.com before MobileMe
@mac.com post MobileMe
AIM Names
AIM names current
MobileMe (@Me.com)
Style
Email Address valid with the .Mac service prior MobileMe Note 1
Email style Name Valid with AIM
May or may not be an Email address
Can be AIM issued or third party Email address
Valid Email with MobileMe Service
Other Abilities
May also be Currently valid email linked to a MobileMe account
Maybe Valid Apple ID
Is a Valid AIM Screen Name
May Not be a Valid Apple ID (was an option choice at one stage)
Is a Valid AIM Screen Name
May not look like an Email (No @whatever.com) but may be linked to either an AOL email account or AIM one
Current Registration seems to be pushing Email registration (@AIM.com)or asking to use another you currently use.
Trial Accounts are limited to the Trial Period Only as Emails, Valid AIM Screen Names and Apple IDs.
Apple ID
Possibly (likely)
Possibly (depends when Registered)
More currently Yes.
No
No
Yes
Glad I could help.

Screen sharing and AIM account question

In the Apple docs it says:
"You can share screens using AIM (including me.com and Mac.com), Jabber, Google Talk, and Bonjour. You can’t share screens using iMessage or Yahoo!."
I know I can simply create a free AOL/AIM account for this. But how does one get a me.com or mac.com address? Are those old, no-longer-available services?
What do most people use for screen sharing. I've been using my AIM account, but was unable to get it to work yesterday with some people who created new AOL accounts for this purpose, even though I see them online. They don't get my requests, except for one person. And even if she accepts the request we don't get connected. And we can't video chat either.
Thanks,
Doug

HT201060 Impossible to create AppleID's for my kids

I want my kids to have their own ID's for their iPad mini's and Macbooks. But it seems this is impossible for us - someone at Apple hasn't really thought this through from end to end.
1. My 13 and 15 year old cannot create AppleID's either due to their age or because they don't have credit cards.
2. I have a valid AppleID with a debit card, which I cannot use to create child accounts. Like many expats I have a credit card from back home, but because it is not from the country I live in now, Apple doesn't allow me to add this credit card. Apple is making me regret changing my country of residence! My debit card is good enough to charge me hundreds of dollars, but not good enough to create a child account? Hmphf!
3. I tried family sharing but that also doesn't work. You need to be signed in to iCloud and you need OSX 10.10 (which hasn't even been released yet!). How in heaven's name do you sign into iCloud with your AppleID which you don't have because your dad is stupidly trying to create an AppleID for you?!
I gave up on Microsoft years ago because they could not deal with people living abroad, and it looks like Apple is going the same way. Somebody with a brain needs to think this through.
Please tell me how the heck I can give my kids their own ID's without resorting to illegally declaring their ages and payment method? This is so frustrating.

Well, I do know that in some countries, the iTunes store will only accept Credit Cards, or any of these other forms of payments:
What payment methods can I use in the iTunes Store
How about putting your Debit Card on a PayPal account and using that? (just a thought....)
Best of luck, and sorry I don't have any other solutions
Cheers,

Aim account wont login on ichat

i have switched to leopard over the weekend. Since doing so, i have been unable to get my aim account to login. I receive the message connection reset by peer. I have no idea what to do, because i can get connected w/ adium to my msn account but not the aim account.. so it has to be relevant to the aim only

ok, i have tried creating a new aol account i still have the same results as the old one. i have updated the keychain and deleted the aim from it... still no results... i even went as far as to download the aim messenger thinking maybe it was a problem w/ ichat or Adium.. and i still could not connect... every other internet function works fine from safari, to my other instant messaging, i am a college student and nearly all of my friends use this im solely.

The button to create a new account with iChat does not appear

I've been trying to create a new account .mac from iChat, but the button does not appear, can you help please?
Thank you
Ivan

Hi,
The @mac.com Registration is Here
You are right that there was a Button in iChat and iChat 5 that when @mac.com was selected as the type would then sned you off to that page (in iChat 5 the AIM option and using the Button took you to the AIM registration)
Soon after Apple brought this to iChat 5 then AIM moved their Registration page making the Link useless.
For some reason Apple also removed the ability in iChat 5 to go to the @mac.com site
The Button is absent (rather than "Missing") in iChat 6 and Messages beta.
The AIM registration Page is Here
ON the @mac.com site keep the password to 16 characters or less (The AIM server limits)
You cannot use another Email to link to the @mac.com name that is already in use with an Apple ID
