Windows Messaging+ App behind a proxy

What is the URL for the web service for the Windows Messaging+ app? Im behind a proxy and it always fails to connect. There is no option under settings for defining a proxy.

Yes, Greg said
Other applications such as Spotify, Dropbox,
etc. work only when I configure them to use a specific proxy server. The
Message+ desktop application doesn't seem to allow the user to specify a
proxy server anywhere in the settings.
All he's asking is if the desktop app has an option to set for a proxy server or a way to workaround it....

Messages app moving on focus

Safari (or any other app) open in foreground with Messages app behind then click on messages app to bring it to foreground then reply box moves the top of the messages app window to the relative position of my mouse when I click on the reply box. Anyone else having this issue? It's the only app I've see have this behavior so far.

Cross-posting.
I can reproduce this almost every time:
1. Launch Messages.app and anything else (e.g. web browser, to read this text) and make sure they are both visible on the screen
2. Change focus to (e.g. click inside the window of) the other application (e.g. browser)
3. Click in the title bar of Messages.app
Result(s):
a. Messages.app window comes to the foreground
b. Keyboard input is ignored
c. Moving the mouse/trackpad moved the pointer around the screen, seems "normal"
d. Clicking the mouse button a second time causes Messages.app window to move to the new location of the mouse pointer, as if the action in step #3 above was "click-and-drag" instead of just "click" and the second click in result (d) here were a mouse-button-release.
Some things I thought might be required, but are /definitely not required/ because I can get it to behave as described without these circumstances:
- Switching desktops (4-finger-swipe left/right) to get to Messages.app
- "Other" application has caret active in a text-input widget
This *only* happens with Messages.app. This is not a problem with any other application. Ever. Resetting the NVRAM or any other system-wide reset procedure, etc. is not going to fix this.

No help in iWork apps on iPad behind a proxy

My MacBook Pro is connected to internet by Ethernet behind an autoproxy.
It shares its connection with my iPad through Airport.
This autoproxy is set on my iPad as Auto HTTP proxy.
In any iWork app on my iPad, when I ask Help, I got a message like: "The access to the Help needs an internet connection".
This is obviously a serious bug in Numbers, Pages, or Keynote which do not properly recognize an internet access through a shared connection behind a proxy.
Any help welcome.
Message written on my iPas set as described above.

After activating your iPad, go to the App Store and search for your free apps:
1. Pages
2. Numbers
3. Keynote
4. iPhoto
5. iMovie
6. GarageBand
If apps are still showing the price: sign out>reboot>and sign in again

Messages app won't display any windows

My Messages app (v 7.0.1) intermittently won't display any windows, not even the Preferences. I've tried reloading the app from Time Machine, but it won't let me replace an the current version.
I'm running a Mac Pro Quad-Core Intel Xeon 3.2 GHz under 10.8.5.
Any ideas?

HI,
The Time Machine version needs to be the same version as is used in OS X 10.8.5
This will be version 7.0.1 which came with the OS X 10.8.2 update.
the Process should be to go to Applications and find the Messages app.
Then use the Time Machine icon in the Dock.
This will reduce the window and display the galaxy in the background.
On the right are the arrows and dates for moving "back in time".
The window should also have become "stacked" with those older versions behind.
Changing the date should file through the stacked windows until the process finds a change to the Applications Folder.
If you went back until a change in Messages you probably got the wrong version (or a version that will not work with a later version of the OS).
Try this:-
In any Finder window use the Go Menu whilst holding down the ALT key.
Select the Library that now appears in the Menu list
Navigate to Preferences.
Find com.apple.ichat.plist
Drag it to the Trash and restart the app.
This .plist holds the windowing Info for the app.
I am presuming you have tried the keystrokes seen in the Window Menu of Messages ?
however it also holds all the info about the Preferences except for the accounts.
This means any change you have made from the Defaults will be reset.
The Messages section on Fonts and Colours is the most commonly changed.
All the Alerts will be reset if you changed them.

Messages App Window Display Issue

Upgraded to Mavericks on mac desktop and Messages doesn't display multiple chats in same window with sidebar. I have to click on the user name to view chat, it replaces the chat that was previously in the window.

Ahhh,
That or rather those betas.
Did you provide Feedback on the issue ?
I Shut Down my computer each night.
Last night I left two Finder windows open.
In addition the Login Item for my account mounts and opens two more windows for Drives on another computer. (there now being 4 windows open at the end of Start up today)
One of these was for the folder ~/Library/Messages.
This was behind the two fro the Drives.
I went to select the windows to close them but was not very accurate and the Messages window that was behind the two for the Drives did relocate itself to where I had drag across the Screen.
I was aware that I did not make a good distinction between a Left or Right Click although no Contextual Menu showed up.
I was aiming for the red button on the top window, missed and sort of slide off to one side, which seemed to think I was doing a Click and Drag.
I have tried to repeat this with no luck.
Whilst I might have a quirky type similar issue in the Finder I have no hint of the issue in Messages.
It might be interesting if similar apps have the same issues.
FaceTime uses the IMAgent and the SOAgent helper apps along with Messages.
The Game Center and the above apps can all have login issues which suggests links with each other. However this tends not to be an multiple window app.
A Browser could work as a Multiple window app.
Many graphic apps work with Multiple windows.
There are areas that people could try out in these respects.

Outlook2013 email message goes behind main Outlook window when opening PDF attachment with Reader 11

Problem statement: Outlook 2013 email message goes behind main Outlook window when opening PDF attachment with Adobe Reader 11.0.3
Environment: Windows 8 x64; Office 2013; Adobe Reader 11.0.3
Steps to reproduce bug:
1. Open Outlook 2013
2. Open email message with PDF attachment
3. Open PDF attachment (with Adobe Reader as default PDF viewer)
4. Close Adobe Reader
Results: Original email message with PDF attacment now sits behind the main Outlook window
Expected results: Original email message should be on top of main Outlook window as it was when opening the PDF attachment
Note: Adobe Acrobat Profession performs as expected - the original email is on top of the main Outlook window - This only seems to be a problem with Adobe Reader.
Has anyone else experience this problem? If so, have you found a work-around?
Thanks,
Mike

From: new window opens behind existing window - how to modify?
I had this problem happening in Outlook.
If I tried to open an email, it would open behind the main Outlook window.
The same happened if I opened a link in the email - it would open behind the mail.
The fix that was suggested to me was so simple that I still don't believe it.
Right click on the task bar and unlock the taskbar, then lock it again.
Close down Outlook and re-start it.
Problem solved! Just dont know how or why.

Why am I getting the message "Your app isn't identified as a universal app in the Store." when I have already associated my Windows Phone app to my Windows Store app?

I associated two Windows Phone apps to their respective Windows Store apps yet one of them is giving me this message on the pricing tab...
"Your app isn’t identified as a universal app in the Store. Publish a Windows app with the same name, and you’ll enable the universal app icon, with all the associated benefits. If you’ve already published a related Windows app, this icon may not
be appearing because of restrictions you’ve set on your app.
Learn more about these restrictions."
I have checked under "Learn more" and I am meeting all the requirements for the icon to show. Please help as I really think having this icon on the Phone store will help downloads and I want my users to know there is a Windows partner app.

I downloaded the new OS X Yosemite.
Not sure what you mean by new, since Yosemite was released about 9 months ago.
When i try to open it i get this message, The version of iPhoto installed on this Mac is not compatible with OS X Yosemite.
iPhoto version 9.6.1 is the latest version of iPhoto that is compatible with Yosemite. If you're just now updating to Yosemite from an older version of OS X, then you may have missed your window of opportunity to upgrade iPhoto to the latest version.
So i go to the Mac App Store i get this message, "The item you've requested is not currently available in the U.S. store."
With the release of the 3rd Yosemite update,10.10.3, which includes Photos, iPhoto is no longer available for purchase.
I would recommend that you use Photos.

Mountain Lion Messages behind a proxy

How can I configure messages to work behind my proxy. Usually there is a proxy to put the proxy information in via the application but I am unable to find this field in messages on mountain lion.

There have been quite a few requests on here concerning the very same problem but with the Messages beta -- I was hoping that the "official" release of Messages would somehow solve the problem but I guess it didn't…!?
Let's hope that either Apple fixes this known problem with an update or that someone comes up with a decent workaround…!

Integrated Messaging App for Windows

Does anyone in the community know if Verizon is working on bringing an integrated messaging app to Windows Phone, or Windows 8? I think the service is wonderful, and have been waiting years to have a product like this. So many times I want to send a URL from my computer to a friend's phone.

I don't know about Integrated Messaging being available on Windows 8... but from your computer (or even any phone) you can use these to send an email and it will arrive as a text message on the recipient's phone.

Windows Mail app in LAN-Network "e-mail address not available"

Hello,
I have a Problem with the Windows Mail app at Windows 8.1. Everything works normally at home, but when I try to update mails at university I get the message "e-mail address not available", but Hotmail works fine. I have four more addresses synced,
none of these is updated while I am logged in at university.
So when I start my computer, I have to log in in the University network via IE, there is also a timeout after an hour or so.
I have to go access my mails in the browser, but that is quite bothersome with four e-mail addresses.
Anyone who has an idea how to solve this?
UPDATE: OneDrive does also not sync. It says all Files are up to date, but there are not. If I try to download files via Onedrive App, I get the error message "Currently, the file can't be opened. An Error ocurred with OneDrive."

Hi,
How about your problem now? Is your Mail APP still works properly in your home? According to your description, it's should your School network problem. Is your IE enabled any network Proxy when you using it at school?

Using UIScrollView in a window-based app - IS IT POSSIBLE?

sorry for noob question but i am very new and only 12 years old so i am very new. I am making an app that involves scrollviews but i want to use window based app so i can use the window setHidden piece of code instead of messing around with view controllers.
My Question:
How can I implement a scroll view into the app delegate .m since there is obviously no ViewDidLoad feature. Do I just make the IBOutlet in the .H file but what to do in the .M file to get the "scrollview ScrollEnable:YES" and the CGSize parameters in without causing a massive error?

Hi Tom, and welcome to the Dev Forums!

I don't know why you'd want to hide your main window, but in any case, a view controller wouldn't prevent you from doing that. View controllers do all kinds of good things behind the scenes and catch lots of useful messages, which is why they're almost always recommended for any full-screen view--even in the simplest possible project (see [Overview|http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/UIKit/Reference /UIViewControllerClass/Reference/Reference.html%23//appleref/occ/cl/UIViewController] in the UIViewController Class Reference). That said, making iOS apps without any view controllers will be an excellent way for you to learn what they do for you, so onward and upward!

Yes, assuming a UIScrollView object has been added to MainWindow.xib, make an IBOutlet ivar and @property for your scroll view in the @interface (MyAppDelegate.h) of your app delegate, and connect that outlet to the scroll view in IB. Then add the scroll view to the window and set its properties in the [applicationDidFinishLaunching:|http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documen tation/UIKit/Reference/UIApplicationDelegateProtocol/Reference/Reference.html%23//appleref/doc/uid/TP40006786] method of the @implementation (MyAppDelegate.m). Don't forget to set the [contentSize|http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/UIKit/Refere nce/UIScrollViewClass/Reference/UIScrollView.html%23//appleref/doc/uid/TP40006922] property of the scroll view to the size of the view it will scroll. The view won't scroll unless contentSize is higher and/or wider than the scroll view frame.
... there is obviously no ViewDidLoad feature. ...
There's no reason your app delegate class needs to be a direct subclass of NSObject. It can just as easily be a subclass of UIViewController. In that case you could override viewDidLoad, or any of the other useful view controller methods in the app delegate @implementation. Just change the superclass from NSObject to UIViewController in the first line of the @interface, and connect the 'view' outlet of the app delegate to the scroll view object in IB.

Messages.app can't connect to AIM/GChat/FB Jabber, AIM.app works

Since updating to 10.8 on my 2011 MBP, I've had a ton of trouble with Messages.app . It seems to work consistently from home on a Frontier DSL behind a 2003-era Airport Extreme. However on my business network (Comcast, behind Sonicwall TZ170 & Windows 2003 SBS server), connection is inconsistent at best. This morning, I'd left my MBP logged in & sleeping from home, and plugged in at work. Messages remained logged in to AIM, GChat & Facebook via Jabber. However, after a restart, those services will not reconnect.
Messages lost the connection to the AIM account “xxxx”. A network error occurred.
Messages lost the connection to the Google Talk account “xxxxx”. A network error occurred.
Following other tips on here, I've dumped a variety of .plist files, removed my accounts & added again, set preferences to use separate Buddy lists, and checked/unchecked/checked again the use SSL options. This started to feel like a DNS issue. But, I'm running XPsp3 via VirtualBox, and that computer's AIM & Yahoo connections on Trillian work just fine. Then I downloaded & installed the official AIM.app, and it also connected without issue. I can ping each of those hosts from the command line.
Before upgrading, I had been using iChat on 10.4/10.5/10.6/10.7 with those account without problem. Strangely, Bonjour rarely connected under those configurations but does now every time. iMessages work properly.

Hi,
The default GoogleTalk login is on port 5223 as it is a Jabber SSL login.
However it can be made to work on port 443 (with SSL Left On)
Log out of the GoogleTalk account in the Messages > Preferences > Accounts > Google option > Account info tab
In the Server Setting Tab you can now change the port to 443
This is likely to help where the Connection to the Internet only allows default ports.
The AIM login in Messages is now on port 443 (regular posters have been saying use this since iChat 3)
It also changed the server name from iChat 6 to api.oscar.aol.com
Adium still uses the older login.oscar.aol.com In earlier versions of iChat this gained a leading "s" when using SSL
By default most domestic routers will have ports up to 1024 open (allows Web Browsing Secures logins and Mail plus FTP) - there are 65355 ports in all and some of the ports used for Logins in Messages and Video or Audio chatting are above this 1024 threshold.
I am a little surprised that the computer stayed logged in as you changed networks.
If not using SSL it is likely the AIM one was dropped and Automatically reconnected.
If the app is supposed to start when the computer does then there could be issues if the network is not established by the time Messages has finished Launching.
The fact the Bonjour Account is connecting means it is not the DNS issue.
Bonjour relies on mDSN (multicast DNS) and this in turn need DNS to be working.

Messages App says address is unverified?

I just updated to Mavericks, and I was pretty pumped to get it because of the messages app. (I was on OSX Lion earlier) I tried signing in with my normal Apple iD and it says it's unverified. I've been using this Apple iD for my iPhone and anything Apple for awhile now... what's up with that?
I've tried resetting my Apple iD password, but to no avail. Any ideas on what I could do? All of the dropdown menus at the top (Messages, File, Edit ect) are grey. (Unavailable)

Hey URXP2NE,
I found an article that helps with troubleshooting Messages sign-in issues, and while it doesn't list the exact issue you're encountering as a symptom I think the steps could still apply. Give them a shot here:
Try the following:
Ensure that you have an active Internet connection.
Verify that you are using a valid Apple ID at appleid.apple.com. You can also create an Apple ID or reset your password from this website. Other things you should confirm while logged into appleid.apple.com:
Confirm that the email addresse(s) for your Apple ID has been verified.
Check for miss-types of the email address
Check the spelling of the email address
Check that all letters are lower case
Make sure that special characters are correct, e.g. no commas (,) where there is supposed to be full stops (.), etc.
Note You may experience issues if your email address is associated with more than one Apple ID. If you have multiple Apple IDs, log in to appleid.apple.com with each Apple ID and confirm that each email address you wish to use for FaceTime or Messages is associated with only a single Apple ID.
Make sure the date, time, and time zone are set correctly in Data & Time preferences, in System Preferences.Tip: Enable "Set date and time automatically" in Date & Time preferences to automatically keep this information accurate.
If third-party firewall or port filtering software is installed, it needs to be configured to allow connections toapple.com, verisign.com and verisign.net. A list of ports required for using FaceTime and Messages is in Using FaceTime and iMessage behind a firewall. Please consult this article for further help configuring firewalls and Internet security software.
If your /private/etc/hosts file has been modified, make sure that it is not interfering with communications toapple.com, verisign.com or verisign.net servers. Note: Some third-party software installers may modify the /private/etc/hosts file without alerting you. Instructions about how to check and resolve issues with a /private/etc/hosts file are in the "Blocked by configuration: (Mac OS X/Windows)" section of iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting.
