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.

Thunderbird is not saving chat history

Thunderbird is not saving my chats. I need the chat history. What can I do?
Thank you for your help.

This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

BBM - No option to save chat history on Bold 9900

I have the Bold 9900 and upgraded the software to 7.0.0.579 as well. I have the latest version of BBM but I don't have the option of saving chat history. This option is just missing from the list. I have asked my friends who own this same BB but they have this option on BBM. Help this is very annoying.

Here are my privacy settings again. My formatting in the original question did not hold:
Use custom settings for history
Always use private browsing mode - unchecked
Remember my browsing and download history - checked
Remember search and form history - checked
Accept cookies from sites - checked
Accept third-party cookies - unchecked
Keep until: I close Firefox
Clear history when Firefox closes - checked
The 'Exceptions' submenu has several domains set to "Allow" - these are the cookies I would like Firefox to keep on exit.
Settings for clearing History - In this submenu, 'Cookies' is unchecked. While this is unchecked, Firefox will not delete any cookies on exit, even though I have the 'Keep until I close Firefox" option enabled. But if I check this box, Firefox deletes all cookies on exit and ignores my Allowed Exceptions. This seeems to make no sense to me.

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.

IMessage chat history being saved

I deleted a conversation and when I made a new chat window for the person, it loaded previous conversations as well. I don't understand why as I have "save chat history" unchecked in the settings.
Cheers!

Hi,
When Messages was iChat you had to manually select "Save Chats"
The option is still there in Messages and it will save both Chats with Buddies (AIM, Jabber, Yahoo or Bonjour chats) as well as iMessages conversations.
However iMessages also has chat.db set of database items and these work as you say:-
As soon as you restart a connection with someone you have iMessaged before then the "History" of that chat is shown.
The process of showing the the "history" with that person also works with Saved Chats.
Some people see the dismissing of the conversation or chat from the Main window as a "deletion" much like it would be on an iPhone.
The Menu item to delete a Chat/Conversation in the File Menu with it's Keystrokes of CMD + Backspace were not there in iChat. This suggest it should apply only to the iMessages side of things. However my small amount of testing (I like to keep everything) seems to make it inconclusive for me.
My personal experience is that your App is working as it should.

Hey Lettybetty68,
Welcome to the BlackBerry® Support Community Forums.
To resolve this issue with your BlackBerry® Messenger chat history for this contact, try deleting the contact and then re-add the contact and test with new messages.
I hope this helps.
Thanks.

Chat history saved despite "Never save" setting

I am signed in on multiple machines, and have my settings set to never save history (chat/calls/messages). Yet, chat history shows up unless I explicitly purge the message log.What might be the issue here?
I use WinXp, Win7 and am signed into a Skype phone.Thanks.

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?

How to make previous chat history visible in new window

Hi people,
Recent Windows convert here. I am a loyal user of Trillian, and one of the things I love about Trillian is that when a new chat window comes up, the log from the previous conversation is visible within it.
So, to illustrate, it's a bit frustrating to have a conversation like this:
Me: Hey Mike, do you know how Sally is doing?
Mike: I am away from my computer
I log off or go away. Then a few hours later,
Mike: She hurt her foot
Me: Who hurt her foot?
You get my drift - if new windows had a little history in them, that'd be great. Now, I know how to save chat history, and where it is saved. What I'm wishing for is that it were right there inside the new window with some kind of divider to set the time/context (even a button to view it would be a step in the right direction). I'm guessing there may be an add-on for this, but my Apple Discussion and Google searches have been fruitless.
Any ideas? Thanks all.
Macbook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.6)

HI ZigZagLens,
Welcome To The Apple Discussion Pages.
I only know of a partial solution to this.
If I have a Chat open and the other end person goes offline when they come back my end uses the same window if I still have it open.
There is no way to reopen a close chat window AND add fresh text chat to it.
If you wanted this it would be a feature request.
I could see that it could be done two ways.
1) The Recents item in iChat itself could list the last few saved chats
2) An iChat Recents item could be added to the Blue Apple Recents item.
At present iChat open saved chats are added to the Documents list if they are reopened, so it will probably need both.
It is around this area that you might find a utility.

Older chat history dissapeared

Could somebody help me to solve my problems please ? In recently January, I had enabled my blackberry messenger chat history. Then I had noticed that after a long conversation with the same person, the older messages disappeared. Is there any way to get them back or view them again ?
I had checked through my PC, but I can't view it.
And the older messages saved as .OLD format.
Please help me. Thanks.

Have you try pressing the menu button while in a convo and going to view history? Or menu>view>view history if your using OS6.

How do I view messages chat history?

I have been using my Ipad to message with friends. I wanted to look at the history of a recent chat, but don't want to click at the top of the chat to load more. Is there a way I can see all my history?

skype histories are saved locally, or in the computer where the chat conversations happened. If you no longer have access to your old machine, there is no way to restore your chat history.

How to regenarate chat history?

Hi did is Chaitanya I m using Skype last from 8 years in xp2 ,I phone(iOS) windows 8 n I have not saved r back uped any history. . how can I get my chats back plzz help me...

Hi,
There are no room console API to limit to chat history other than deleting some items manually by going to Explore tab's items. Currently the entire history gets cleared automatically. If you want to delete some messages now, you would have to subsclass some of the functions inside SimpleChatModel.as.
You can see the clear function for deleting the complete chat history inside SimpleChatModel.as. Basically, you need to delete the nodes and create them again. You can do this using PHP also by using our ServerToServer API to delete and create the nodes.
However, we plan to do some changes to our SimpleChatModel in future which will include allowing users to delete some messages. This will be coming in second half timeframe of year.
Hope this helps
Thanks

Hi all,
I am having a peculiar problem....
The chat history for all of my contacts displays whilst I am in an active conversation but when I click on a different contact then go back to the contact who I was just having a conversation with the history has gone.
If I click 'show messages:' from yesterday, or last week etc. it still shows nothin (even though there should be messages there. If I click 'show messages: from the beginning' it does show messages from May 2013 and before for some of my contacts.
I have downloaded SkypeLog View and I can see that Skype is actually saving all of my chat history right up to the minute. It is just not displaying this in the contact windows....
What's happening please peeps!?

Am using the latest version - have searched and searched for a solution online but still no joy.
Can anyone help me please??

Saving Message History

I am working in a chat application. I am wanting to save the messages in a chat application between users for future purposes.
Is it possible to save the chat history in the Flash Media Server itself, or would it be needed to be saved in database?
If you can provide any tutorials, examples, suggestions or guidelines? I would appreciate it greatly. I have been searching all over the internet for examples and documentations but found nothing relevant.
Anyway, thank you in advance

I would think you would need to set that up in AOL mail preferences.

Viber Desktop for MAC - Exporting chat history

For some reason when I upgraded to the new Viber earlier this month on my iPhone, all of my call and chat history vanished from my phone and I didn't have a chance to export it.
The chat history that got deleted on my iPhone is still visible on my MacBook Air.
My question is, does anyone know how to export chat history from a MAC? I know how to do it from an iPhone, but seeing as the history isn't on the phone I can't export it. I need to do it from the laptop, if possible

Using firefox desktop for mac. Recently it stopped saving my history. Forward and back buttons still work, typing something in the address window will make it pull up places I've visited in the past, but only ones I visited two or three weeks ago. Nothing recent. "Show all history" brings up the window, but there is nothing in it."
Private browsing is not enabled. I have enabled "remember my browsing and download history."
Another answer suggested I might have an anti virus or something that is disabling history. I looked, but I don't have anything doing that. Safari and Chrome are both saving their histories normally.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

The "places maintenance" add on found that something had become corrupted. It had me restart, and it was replaced. Working fine now. Thanks.
