X509 Anchors with Mac MSN Messenger

i've been having difficulty with getting msn mac running, getting an error message about certificates when i try to log in..
I think i may have deleted the X509 anchors keychain when trying to access my university's wireless network by accident, which MSN will check for authorisation when trying to log in (hard coded in to the software)
Is it possible to get a new X509 anchors keychain so i can just incorporate the certificates into this in keychain access? fairly sure this would solve my problems but just havent been able to find it anywhere online..
I can use adium or something but kind of would rather use mac messenger.. any thoughts?
thank you!

anyone?

During downloading, another message pop up saying that the Messenger.bin is neither compressed .... and I could not go any further,and as such could not use MSN Messenger. What's the problem here?

How can I chat with my MSN Messenger friends using Messages in Lion (not iChat)?

I use MSN Messenger daily to talk with friends but I would like to use Messages to chat with them. Is there a way to do this? I looked in the preferences but it only lists AIM, Google, Yahoo and Jabber. I don't use any of those ones. I only use MSN. Anybody know how, or if it's even possible?

HI,
The Messages Beta has run out.
The End Date was the 14th December 2012.
However iChat and Messages in Mountain lion can be enabled to Add MSN Buddies to a Jabber List using Transports.
These Instructions detail how you can use a third Party app (in this case Psi) to enable a Transport on a Server that uses Transports and then Add MSN Buddies to your Jabber Buddy list.
The Instructions were written some while ago and include many pictures.
The current version of Psi is newer than the pics but you can still work out what to do.
The process will only enable Text Chatting

Mac msn messenger closing down

Ok, the past two day my msn has been going crazy it loads up fine and works great but as soon as I close a conversation using either Apple + w or closing via red "x" it freezes for about 2 seconds then the whole program closes and brings up an error message and giving me the option to send an error report to apple, I have tried closing the whole program and re-loading it, but the same problem occurs. I have also tried un-installing the program and re-installing it, but that does not work either. Anyone else having the same problem?

Wild guess: you have Safari 3 Beta installed? If so, uninstall it and your Mac:Messenger will work fine again.
This problem has been confirmed in some other thread on the forums. I've learned to live with it , even though it's still freaking annoying.
Good luck,
Billy.

Logging in with MSN Messenger - please help!

Hello!
I really hope somebody can help, I've been trying to get iChat to work with my MSN Messenger contacts for about 2 weeks now and have trawled through the advice on this forum but nothing has worked properly.
I've tried Ralph Jones (I think)' helpful advice, been through the top three links and registered with Jabber about 5 times but no success. If you are reading please help Ralph!
The first time I tried it, it did work and I spoke with somebody for a few minutes, however then it came up with an error that said 'Not available' when I tried to send a message. Since then all my contacts have showed as 'Waiting for Authorization' but this status never changes. I think I've tried everything - I've tried different servers on the third link, I've tried the UK one (I'm in the UK) but nothing seems to work.
Please help! This is the final step as every other application I've got working fully!
Thanks,
Andrew

Hi,
I used Psi to set up my Jabber name and transport on Jabber.org.uk
Then I added that Jabber screen name as an Jabber account in the iChat Preferences > Accounts
Like you I find that sometimes they seem to stay at Not Authorised.
Check with the Psi app that the Transport is active.
Also contact Gil Taylor in table 2
http://www.ralphjohnsuk.dsl.pipex.com/ContactTesters.html as he seems to know more about this.
Use his AIM name first and text him.

MSN messenger is still active in development, It has just been crippled - no Nudges, no msn games, no drawing, no a/v support etc..You can still do the basics; Talk to your friend, custom smileys/multiple convos.
Note you can't sort contacts by e-mail (a feature I missed from Windows). Adium does attempt to solve a few problems but the group convo feature with MSN doesn't work very well - I still prefer Messenger for Mac because it holds the general 'look and feel' of MSN messenger for windows. (Kind of :P).

How can I do video chat with my PC friends on MSN messenger?

Well I posted this in the iChat area, but theres almost no traffic there, hoping for a better response here
I just got my iMac today and was hoping to do some video chats with family members. I can't figure out how to video chat with them since MSN messenger is not Mac compatable. Does anyone know of a program I can use on my Mac to video chat with MSN messenger users?
*I was able to use aMSN for video, but there was NO sound so that basically defeated the purpose...

Hi
Have just replied to your iChat post:
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=4577049#4577049 where I've posted a link to Mercury Messenger, that might work.

Mac OS X Update (Power PC) 10.4.6 caused MSN Messenger, Internet Problems

Hey Guys, Heres my problem. A couple days ago my software update came up and i downloaded the new OS X update 10.4.6 (power PC). that was fine and when it was done I restarted my computer, and when i went to go on the internet it worked fine but once i opened MSN messenger and tried to sign in , it would let me sign in but once i get signed in there would be no one online and shortly after i would lose my internet connection. So in short form when i sign into msn it causes me to lose my internet connection. I have treid to download msn again but no difference and i have also tried AMSN and it does the same thing. I am not sure if it has anything to do with the new OS X update or not
If anyone could help me out with this, that would be great.
Thanks.
Mike

Hi, Mike.
You might want to search or post on the "Microsoft Messenger for Mac" group you can find on the Microsoft Mac Support - Newsgroups page. These are Google Groups with active participation from MS Microsoft Messenger for Mac users, including a variety of expert users.
I don't mean to send you somewhere else, but I've found numerous answers there for folks with questions related to MS products. Accordingly, it has often proved to be the first, best place to look for answers to questions such as you are asking.
Good luck!

Why I cant use the MSN messenger in my mac?

I just downloaded the newest version about MSN messenger 5.0. But I cant sign in my msn messenger. I try many times,but it always popup one window says:"Sign in to Microsoft Messenger failed because the service is not available or you ma not be connected to he internet."My internet connection is no problem i think, because I use one windows system, the MSN messenger works. How to solve this problem, I need you help. cheers.

I take it you mean the latest Microsoft Messenger, which is version 5 and a step up from the previous MSN Messenger 4.
Are you signing in with a Hotmail.com address, or do you have an alternate company address (ie: Mac.com, etc)? If so, you need to register this address with the Microsoft Net Passport system to allow your "third party" email address to access the MSN system. Hotmail addresses are allowed access by default.

Logitech 4000 work with Yahoo/MSN IM on a Mac?

Ok...I've taken a look at a few previous posts about having the Logitech 4000 in use my Mac. It's working with iChat, but I can't seem to get it to work with any other program like Yahoo IM and MSN Messenger. I have downloaded all the updated software for the Logitech cam as well as downloading and buying macam. I am a fairly new Mac user, so I need a little help. I have tried to copy macam.component to /library/quicktime, but I can't find /library/quicktime anywhere on my Mac when I do a spotlight search. Does anyone have any advice for me? Thanks!

Hi
Double click on your harddrive on the desktop then double click on library and then you should find the quicktime folder.

Safari 3.0.2 issue with MSN Messenger 6.0.2

Hi all, I wanted to post an issue Im having ever since I updated to Safari 3.0 and 3.0.2 now.
I am running MSN Messenger 6.0.2 and every time I hit the red X button to close a conversation box, Messenger crashes. Every single time.
I wrote to Microsoft's support about this issue and they suggested that it might be something wrong between their soft and Safari 3.0 since before the update, I had no problems at all.
I have tried downgrading to Safari 2.0 but I cannot install it since it asks for OS X 10.4.2 and Im running 10.4.9 !!!
I would need some help please. I do not know how to solve this issue and it keeps happening again and again.
Any thoughts??
Thank you,
Ramiro

Mac and msn messenger

I am a new maccer wondering how to video chat with my friends who are on msn messenger. Is it poss? i notice the newest mac messenger version does not support it. Is this right? Do i need to run Windows?

Cipha, unfortunately, MS hadn't seen fit to make MSM compatible with iChat, nor have then made the Mac version of MSM capable of video. Also unfortunately, the iSight isn't going to work under Windows. However, there are ways to have video chats with people on Windows (iChat and AIM 5.9 or Trillian -- but not Triton -- as well as others). You will be able to get more information and help if you go to the iChat forum at this link. HTH.
