SMS from Yahoo & MSN Live arrive blank

The subject line about says it all. I was really hoping for Yahoo IM support for messaging, but until that gets fixed or I give up an buy an app, I was going to use Yahoo & MSN forwarding to SMS. It worked great on my MotoQ with Verizon...
SMS messages from both carriers arrive blank on my Palm Pixi Plus. Can anybody verify that as a bug for me and/or provide a workaround?
Thanks.

No I can't. Please see my post here, as there is no option to add Yahoo available on either my wife's Pre or my Pixi (Version 1.3.5.1, Config Verizon 1.1) that we just acquired through Verizon. I've already tried the fixes that you specifically recommended to Sprint users on other threads. They have had no impact on my phone.
To clarify, both MSN Live and Yahoo IM have options to send all IM messages to a cell # when you log out on your PC. This worked great on my MotoQ. When an SMS arrives from either of those services on our Palm devices, there is only the 'sent from' number and no text in the body.
To test this yourself, both platforms have an option to send a message to an mobile number. I encourage you to test this or private message me to arrange a test. If you want pictures of phone displays I can provide those.

Why can't I open my Hotmail or MSN live emails on my mac?

Why can't I open my Hotmail or MSN live emails on my mac? also the google pages like google map will not open
Is this some kind of sick joke being played by APPLE for not having bought a Mac before and for daring to have a windows based email ?
I've tried Firefox, Safari, Opera and Explorer none of them will allow the window pages to open up nor can I get Mail to open up my non yahoo emails
I have tried to post this on the communities board several times but the question always vanishes

So you get the log-in screen for Hotmail but it won't complete the log-in? I also take it from your posts that there is no error message that appears to give any indication of the nature of a problem, it just doesn't complete the log in? That sounds like it could be an issue with your Hotmail account. Have you tried logging onto your Hotmail account from another computer, say a computer from work? If not, then the first thing to do is try logging in from another computer. If you don't have one anywhere else, go to a public library and use one of theirs and try logging into your Hotmail.
There is no reason why you would be blocked from Hotmail/Live, Google pages and such while other pages (such as this) are accessible unless one of a few things are happening:
1) You don't have access to those pages because of account lock-out (that's why you need to check your ability to access Hotmail from another computer -- to verify that this is not the case).
2) Something is actively blocking access to those pages. This could be one of a few things:
     a) ISP settings, which you seem to have eliminated when you indicate that you tried accessing Hotmail from another location than your default location, if in fact that other is connected through a different ISP, although in actual fact you did not indicate that you verified that the other access point you tried was actually connecting via another ISP.
     b) Router settings, which you did pretty much eliminate when you tried accessing Hotmail from another location than your default location.
     c) Software blocking. This could include the following:
          * Add-ins: You seem to have eliminated the likely hood of this when you indicate that you've tried multiple browsers.
          * Security software: Family blocking/URL blocking software would cause similar issues across all browsers. If you had installed anything of this nature, this would be a suspicion.
There is one red flag I see amongst all this. You indicate that you have a Macbook Pro running OS X 10.6.7 with membership in these forums showing a start date of March this year, your posts suggest that you recently purchased a Mac, and that your prior posts have disappeared (son't know how far back you were meaning, although I do see one from 3 days ago posted in the Windows section). My question has to do with something you wrote earlier in this thread: "I've tried Firefox, Safari, Opera and Explorer". Uh, would that be Microsoft Internet Explorer? How do you have that installed?

Safari wont load certain websites (yahoo, msn etc..)

I have had my macbook for 6 months and had no problems. now safari just tries to load yahoo, msn and nothing happens. i load another website and it pops right up. what happened? i did not change anything , i think. please help, this is very irritating.

HI and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
From the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Preferences then select the Security tab. Click the Show Cookies button. Delete all related .yahoo.com and .msn.com files the click Done. Relaunch Safari.

Nokia Lumia 800 device Contact Sync with MSN Live

How does the sync from device to MSN live work in the Nokia Lumia phone?
If you purchase a Nokia Lumia, and the dealer synchs your old mobile phone contacts to Nokia Lumia using the contact transfer. In this process you have lots of stale contact which you don't want to retain. Now Lumia doesn't have pc connectivity software like earlier PC Suite or Ovi suite. these were the wonderful piece of sw, and you could update your contact, store on the outlook, and transfer then to and from the device.
But with Lumia you are at fix now. the only way currently appears to be deleting one by one from device.
There is a MSN account, and if you have a data connectivity then you can synch your contacts to your live account. Now you have the backup of the contacts in the server, which fortunately can be imported and exported from/to and excel.
I thought of using this for the bulk update of contacts, and the technical support team says, that if you delete the contact from the server, while switching your data connectivity from mobile, and then put it on, the new state will be, the device contacts will come to server, and the server contacts will go to the device. which means the contacts will get swapped. I somehow couldn't believe in this definition of synching, and I believe, the synching will then keep the sum of the two contacts in both the location, which means the server will be again full. and so will be the device.
Can anybody tell how does the synching works for Lumia with Live account? so that I can update my contact list on bulk?
I also request Nokia to provide a local piece of sw like PC Suite for the Lumia device, this will increase the sale significantly.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You wont have 600 contacts in Hotmail server because you deleted them, and when you delete even one contact in Hotmail then it gets deleted from NLM because I tried it just now. I deleted one contact a supermarket number when the phone was switched on and another contact with the phone switched off. When I switched on the phone the contact disappeared from the phone.
So from this we know that if you delete all of your contacts on your Hotmail then your Nokia Lumia contacts will all be deleted from Nokia Lumia too, apart from the Facebook and Twitter contacts in the People window.
In Microsoft Outlook you can select a whole range very easily and export to .CSV format to upload to Hotmail, if you have Microsoft Outlook I think this is the most powerful and effective way but needs a few steps to do it depending on which version of Outlook you have.
For Microsoft Outlook 2007 and 2010, edit all of your contacts then go to the "File" menu, then click on "Options", then click on the "Advanced" button on the left side of the window that pops up. After that move to the "Export" section on the right of the screen and click the Export button.
Now a menu opens. You choose "Export to a file", then choose "Comma Seperated Values (Windows)", then choose the "Contacts" folder from the list that opens after that. You will be shown a box to name and save the file that Outlook is about to make.
When you save the file remember where it is, then go to Hotmail and look for the "Manage" button above the list of contacts, when you find the button click it and choose "Import" from the menu that opens up.
After that you will be taken to a different page, look for the words "Add people from other services" and underneath that is a list of pictures and one of those pictures has the word "Outlook" next to it. Click on the word "Outlook". Then you will be taken to a new webpage.
When you reach the new webpage make sure you look at the words on that webpage called "Step 2" and make sure there is a green dot beside the words "Microsoft Outlook (using CSV)". Now go to the words called "Step 3" and you will see a button called "Browse". Click on the "Browse" button and then a box will open up asking you to find the file you exported from Microsoft Outlook, which I explained how to do earlier.
You can also use this process to export calendar from Microsoft Outlook to Hotmail, which will then sync the calendar on your Lumia phone too.

Charter & msn live search hijacking safari

so recently i've noticed that some websites will redirect to a 'search page' from charter. and just randomly, if i reload the address it will go to the site directly, sometimes it's not redirected it just goes directly. (sites like 'daringfireball.net' or my blog address, just random sites, it changes)
well then i noticed that it would ALWAYS go to redirected charter page when i only put the 'main' part of the address in, instead of the whole thing. i.e. just typing "apple" should go to "http://www.apple.com", but instead it would go to this site: "http://ww11.charter.net/search?qo=apple&rn=PcLMPddnp2HJcpY"
i then scrolled down to the bottom and clicked the 'About this Page' link. and found out that Charter was trying to be "helpful" and the only way to "opt out" would be to add a cookie. (doesn't it seem like i should have to add a cookie if i wanted to "opt in" not the other way around?)
anyways when i do 'opt out' then typing 'apple' in the address bar still doesn't take me to 'http://www.apple.com'; instead it takes me to a search results list from MSN Live Search: apple. that's almost even worse!!
and i can't figure out how to "opt out" of the msn hijacking. anybody else having this trouble? any suggestions?
i've already tried 'clearing cookies', emptying the cache, and restarting. nothing works. this is happening on both my iMac and macbook. and this only seems to be a 'charter' connection problem, because when i log in at a different location with another ISP it works just fine. i also contacted Charter and they said they don't support macs or safari, and told me to contact my browser developer.
thanks in advance for any help!

Hi Pastorabe,
Welcome to Apple discussions; )
Those DNS# values give by H_S, are from OpenDNS.
Your ISP, & many others have numbers to e enter in the DNS server field.
Many folks leave the DNS server field empty, not sure if that was the sase with yours.
In any case many of them can be found here on the PortForward page, look for the Common DNS Servers link.
Some in portforward such i.e, Earthlink's DNS # will still allow for highjacking, these are the opt out #s for Earthlink, that are not entered there.
207.69.188.171 (west coast)
207.69.188.172 (east coast)
If you're west of the Mississippi, use the west coast DNS server as your primary and the east coast as secondary. And vice-versa for those of you in the eastern U.S.
Quoted from an earthlink blog
The Verizon DNS # 's also work for many in the US..
Verizon (Level3) - these are not restricted to Verizon customers
4.2.2.1
4.2.2.2
4.2.2.3
4.2.2.4
4.2.2.5

It is very nice not to be highjacked to an advertising page or other, isn't it?
Enjoy your Mac & happy browsing: )

Mac to Yahoo, MSN, GoogleTalk

Hi,
I recently bought a Macbook. All my friends use windows, and have yahoo, msn or gtalk, but now i find that it is almost impossible to have video conferencing and voice chat with yahoo nor msn from mac. Is ther any application that i can use to do with voice & video chat with windows only (who do not have mac) yahoo, msn and gtalk users. I tried setting up jabber account from iChat, I have used Adium, and also tried Gizmo, but none of them provide neat solutions to this problem. Is there a neat fix to this?
Also, it is not possible to ask all of my friends to download some other type of chatting client like skype or anything, cos it's pointless for them. So the fix has to be on my mac!! Please help!

Hi! Just got my new ihpone 4 yesterday, but i'm having issues in texting a specific contact. sending sms or iMessages works perfectly fine with all my contacts apart from 1,which is even using my same network, though i can call it and receive sms from it.

Hi! Just got my new ihpone 4 yesterday, but i'm having issues in texting a specific contact. sending sms or iMessages works perfectly fine with all my contacts apart from 1,which is even using my same network, though i can call it and receive sms from it. What could the problem be?

My Quad is as quiet with 10.4.5 as it was on arrival Jan 31, with 10.4.2
Altivec Fractal Carbon gives the CPU too much chance to cool down. I've got other ways to drive the CPU to sustained 100% load. Yes, the fans speed up, but it's still pretty quiet. I've run it at 100% for hours.
I like the idea of taking things gradually. If you can wait a few days before making big changes, it can make things much easier. 3-4 weeks is very conservative, but great if you have that much patience.
My Quad has been up full-time since I got it. Works perfectly.

Unlink verizon email from yahoo

Iwant to sign up for the domain service so I don't lose my verizon.net email when I move (no Verizon service there.)
The domain service says that I have to unlink from Yahoo first. Then it points me to 'Profile/online experience/change my online experience. I have looked and that option doesn't exist anywhere under accounts and services.
I want to save my email and contacts before I unlink, so I think I need to do it this way.
Any help would be appreciated.
(BTW-I know there are other posts on this, but none show the solution.)

I have a graduate degree & am pretty computer literate, but can't change my email password. I keep getting routed to the member center, where I can change my password for my Verizon user ID, which has no effect on my Verizon Yahoo email. I spent over 9 hours with 4 Verizon agents & 1 Yahoo agent (who said it was a Verizon issue). The Verizon agents were not able to fix the problem & kept passing the buck (to Yahoo), hanging up on me, or telling me assinine things like I must have a virus. I was also told that if I got rid of Verizon Yahoo, I would lose that email account. I would suggest anyone who is having similar issues with Verizon Yahoo to file a complaint with the Public Utilities Commission, as I did!
I can't believe this is an ongoing issue. I just spent 7 hours on live chat and on the phone with Verizon and 4 hours with Yahoo---most of the time on hold with Yahoo, which does not offer live chat. Verizon insisted it was a Yahoo problem. Yahoo said it was a Verizon problem. Now Verizon says it's a yahoo problem. I can't change my Verizon/Yahoo email account password. I can't believe this problem has not been fixed. The supervisor at Verizon refused to allow me to speak to a manager and would not provide me with any contact information so that I could communicate with her (ther supervisor). My e-mail account has been compromised and all I asked to do was change the password. I changed my passwords on every other online account I have (e-mail, credit card, paypal, ebay, etc). Each password change took 45-90 seconds. But Verizon/Yahoo can't accomplish a simple request in 11 HOURS??!? This is beyond ridiculous.

Send webcam in msn live messenger

hi iam new to mac i was wondering if some one is willing to help me,just to save me some time searching for the answers,here are my questions:can i use my isight in msn live messenger.if not what can i do to send webcam in live messenger.how can i backup and copy my dvd's.and last do i realy don't need an antivirus....tnx in advance.

Welcome to Mac, lamanblou
Tony has already given you a link to the app you need to connect to PC users who use ONLY Messenger.
I don't think anyone needs anti-virus (AV) on any Mac running OS X. This search of Tiger (10.4) Discussions will give you a look at what others say. Personally, I do not think it necessary to use AV software even for things you send to your PC friends because any PC that is working well enough to get email is already running its own AV software. Of course, if you are running a PC Operating System on your iNtel Mac, you will need to use PC AV software just like any PC would.
As for backing up (and any other Mac questions), the first place you should look is in your Mac's Finder > Help > Mac Help. Just search for "backup" without the quotation marks, and your Mac will give you a list of help topics.
Your next source of good info is the "Support" link at the top of this page. This search of Apple's Support pages duplicates many of the same pages that your Mac Help will find, but the web pages may be useful if you are away from or are having problems with your Mac.
Whether you use your Mac's Help or the Support link, you should be backing up all the important files on your Mac as well as you important DVDs. Use your Mac's "Disk Utility" application (located in the Finder > Go > Utilities folder.) When you have launched Disk Utility, click its Help command for more info about making backups with CDs or DVDs.
To duplicate an existing DVD or CD with Disk Utility (versus merely make a file copy), select "DVD/CD master" from the Image Format choices bar when you create the new disk image of the source disk. When a disk image that was created in the "DVD/CD master" format is burned to disk, Disk Utility creates a duplicate of the source disk. Other Image Formats are used for other purposes and offer different advantages such as compression to allow more data to fit on one disk.

Transfer SMS from old Symbian to WP7 - A Workaroun...

Hey Folks,
I recently bought a new Lumia 800. Unfortunately it is not possible to migrate SMS from my old Nokia 5800 to my new device directly.
The information I've gathered led to the conclusion, that isn't possible to access the SMS storage of WP7. Even developers can't. Consequently there is no direct migration tool (yet).
But my researches led to a workaround solution, which makes it possible to have your old SMS accessible on your new phone.
The general idea is to export the old text messages and store them in the windows live account as e-mails.
How to go about it:
Connect your old phone via Nokia Suite with your PC
Use the Back-Up Function, which creates an "nbu" File, that can be used to restore your data
Download NBU-Explorer (http://sourceforge.net/projects/nbuexplorer/)
Open the Back-Up File (nbu) with the NBU Explorer
Extract your SMS-Folders as VMG Files
Download ABC Amber Nokia Converter
Open the extracted VMG Files with the converter
Select all and click on "Save selected messages as EML..."
Open Windows Live Mail (http://explore.live.com/windows-live-essentials)
Log in to you Hotmail/Live Account
Create a new folder "SMS" (or how whatever is convenient for you)
Drag the EML Files into your Folder
Wait until Windows Live Mail has processed the files
you're done!
Now you can open the Hotmail Account on your Windows Phone and read your old SMS.
Maybe you have to change the syncing options, that all messages are being downloaded. The default setting is that only messages from the past 7 days are downloaded
I know that this is not very elegant at all, but if you have important SMS that you need to access on your mobile device, then this is the best solution. Or is there a better one? Feel free to comment!

Given the lack of saving text messages, there is a touch of brilliance in your solution.
I would like to save a message to send quickly, a feature that have been found on the most basic of phones,
I used to have:
Im stuck in traffic
I will be home soon
Put the dinner in the dog I will be late
Im at the pub come get me
Just a few handy time saving things.
If a smart phone is smart, why is mine so dumb

Equium A210 - after BIOS update problems signing into MSN Live Messenger

Hi
I have just installed the latest Bios update for my Equium A210, as this was the first time \i have ever attempted this \i watched carefully and all appeared to go correctly but, when the notebook restarted, it beeped and showed a checksum error, I chose the option to restart with 'Default Settings'
Since doing this I have had problems signing into MSN Live Messenger and wondered if this could be something to do with the Bios update, also is it possible to 'go back' to the old Bios somehow?
Thanks
Widdy

Hi there,
your issue is actually not an machine related problem. The "Checksum Error" is normal after every BIOS update since the checksum of the BIOS which consists the the BIOS settings and the BIOS version is not correct due an altered BIOS version.
So, next time you update your BIOS you will get a "BIOS checksum error" again. Dont worry, its nothing serious.
Regarding your Messenger:
1. Uninstall the messenger
2. Download the latest version from the MSN site
3. Install the new one
4. Have fun
GReets ;)
