Does anyone recommend a program i can install so i can still contact my windows live messenger contacts without compromising my mac?

Hi out there,
I am the proud new owner of a macbook pro and am lovin it! I used to talk with family and friends on windows live messenger but am not sure whether to download the mac version at microsoft incase of compromising the system and unfortunately IChat doesn't work with messenger contacts. Does anyone have any advise on the mac version of messenger or is there an alternative program that i can download which may work better? Thanks to anyone who may be able to advise me.

Hi
Welcome to the Mac world! You can certainly download Messenger - there's no reason it should compromise your system. You could also look at Adium, which is MSN-compatible.

Window live messenger for nokia

is it possible to download window live messenger on nokia?http://www.marketwatch.com/news/story/nokia-microsoft-sign-windows-live/story.aspx?guid=%7B0BA646E0-...

There is a new version of windows live search for PC's, which uses a silverlight plugin, called
"tafiti". Is Nokia planning to support a mobile version of this browser on N-series or S60-series phones?

here is a copy of the notice I posted on the Danish engineering magazine "Ingeniøren":
Microsoft has launched a new website, Tafiti.com, that delivers Windows Live Search in a Silverlight interface. Tafiti, swahili for “do research” or “to search”, is more of an expriment, showing the cool applications and UI that are possible with Silverlight, but it is fully functional, with Live Search, including web search, books search, blog search, news search, and image search. It appears that you have to uninstall the Silverlight 1.1 alpha and re-install the 1.0 Release Candidate to make it run (that’s not getting annoying).
You can drag searches over to the areas on the right side, then, share them with others or your other PCs (or Macs). Each search stacks on a card above the last one. Tafiti uses some pretty cool animation, only possible with Silverlight. There’s a really cool carousel that rotates among search types. The news search uses a very cool newspaper style view.
There’s also this cool tree view, that shows items from the search on a rotating tree. It’s good for a screensaver, and can be clicked to run full screen.
On10 has a video demo of the website.
Check out Tafiti, it’s pretty cool, and it goes to show you what Silverlight is capable of. Five guys built this, so the possibilities are more than there for small teams to do cool things.

Windows Live Messenger for MacBook

I had to have a new hard drive installed in my MacBook & before I had windows live messenger with cam capabilities for MacBook. Does anyone know where I can get this again? I would really appreciate your help.

Why doesn't the Windows Live Messenger sounds work when the app is closed?

I just got my iPod for Christmas and I downloaded Windows Live Messenger. I read the blurb about it and it said it will notify/alert me that I got an IM (Instant Message). I recieved one, not knowing until an hour later when I re-opened the app and THEN found out I got one. Can anyone tell me how to fix it?

There are other Mac/iphone/facebook type questions on here that are answered and the answers work. So I assume eventually this one will too. People having issues with facebook compatibility and Safari for example.

Using integrated camera with Windows Live Messenger

Hello everyone

Many thanks.

... work with any version of windows live messenger?
MSN Messenger for Mac does not support video except via Office Communications Server 2007 (usually paid for by commercial enterprises rather than individual users). However, it is possible to video with your friends who use the PC version of the MSN Messenger family of apps. Here are a couple of ways you can try:
(1) As suggested by Defcom, take a look at aMSN and Mercury
Either can do webcam video with your built-in iSight.
They work a bit differently, so use whichever you find easiest or most reliable on your MBA.
(2) As an alternative, because your iNtel Mac can use Boot Camp, VMware Fusion™, or Parallels™ to run Windows® software, you can choose which method you want to use, add the required software to your iNtel Mac (if you have not already done so), and then install and use the same Windows® Messenger application that your contacts are using to video chat with them.
The Windows drivers for your built-in iSight and your other Mac hardware are on the disk with Boot Camp so, after you have installed Windows, you can install the iSight driver and use your built-in iSight if you like. If you need more help on this, search or post in Boot Camp discussions category
(3) If your friends are willing to try something "new and improved" (does NOT work with Messenger):
you can both install and try a different video chat app such as Google Talk or Skype.

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!

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.

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).

Windows live messenger disconnection on nokia 6022...

Hi up until recently I could log into windows live messenger on my mobile, now when I log in I get a error 201 and a message say that "you were disconnected from windows live messenger - server initiated disconnect" then asks if I want to connect again. I have searched the net for a answer to how I can get back on messenger but no answer anywhere. Can anyone help me?

hi,
i believe we are talking about 6220 Classic right?
have you checked "Download"? have you tried to update "Download" as well, if it is not showing there?
the other things is if your 6220 is network locked, you might have some restrictions on the apps availability and usage, try to ask your service provider...
if certificate error is shown, try to check the "Application Manager" and see Settings and make sure "Software installation is set to ALL, and Online certificate is also "OFF"
