Yahoo contacts on Windows Mac Messenger

Hi all
I have couple of yahoo contacts in my windows mac messenger. I am not sure but I am guessing after installing snow leopard, I do not receive any messages from the yahoo contacts when I try to chat wit them.
Earlier I was able to chat wit them. Now I can see at the bottom of the chat window "X is writing a message"...but i nevr get the message. Later on wen i sign into messenger from Windows XP i get those msgs as offlines msgs
Anyone has a fix for this?

Please post questions regarding Messenger on Microsoft's own forums for their Mac software, as Apple discussions only provide support for Apple products:

  • 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.

  • How to get rid of yahoo contacts syncing?

    Reposting from another board, because I wasn't getting any replies there.
    I had to set up an iPod touch for my boss's son a while a go and I used Yahoo address book syncing at that time. Now, few months later, I got a 3GS for myself and whenever I sync it with my iTunes at work(Vista machine), Yahoo contacts sync window comes up, warning me that it's about to erase all of my contacts. I get a choice of canceling it, but it's still really annoying, especially since I have contact syncing turned off for my phone. Please help!

    Choose Preferences from the Safari menu, open the General pane if needed, and change it. If that doesn't work, open the Extensions tab and turn off everything you don't recognize.

  • All my windows live messenger contact have disappeared of windows messenger and appeared in my phone contact list on my curve 9360, Why, and how can I get them back where they should be?

    I went onto windows live messenger today and all my contacts have disappeared from it, but I also noticed that they had somehow now appeared in my curve 9360 phone contacts. How did this happen, and how can I get them back into windows live messenger and out of my phone contacts on my phone? This is driving me crazy, can anybody help please?
    My phone is the curve 9360, OS is 7.0.0 bundle 2259 And it was purchased Easter Monday
    Thanks.

    Thanks, but I checked iCloud and it has none of them.
    If it backed up to my laptop, that died and I just got the new computer. The one that's crashed won't even boot, so there's no way to even tell if it was syncing the contacts along with all the phone photos. Literally happened at the same time - it was because I had the new computer that I was finally able to pull the photos off the phone and make room for the upgrade. It had refused to upgrade for lack of space for some time.
    I had thought it was set to sync to iCloud but it vanished from BOTH my phone and the cloud. That's why I'm so angry about it.

  • E72 Windows Live Messenger Contact List

    Hello,
    I am trying to set my Windows Live Messenger as default contact list. But it doesnt seem possible. Does anyone knows how to?
    I have 3 contact lists in my phone.
    1 Telephone contacts
    2 Ovi contacts
    3 Live Contacts
    I also have an issue when selecting the Live Contacts. All three lists are there and selectable, but the Live contact list is blank. That means it doesnt show that it is the Windos Live Contact list.
    Reinstalling didnt help!
    Who can help?
    Pleas read my E72 Windows Live messenger Contact list post!

  • Moving Contacts from Windows XP Outlook to Mac Leopard Entourage

    Is this possible? Can you provide directions? I have Bootcamp if it helps. Thanks.
    Louis

    Latan:
    There is a way of importing contacts from Windows XP Outlook to Mac Leopard Entourage and that is by saving a file in a Text - comma separated values and then importing into Entourage.
    Here is how:
    1. Open Outlook in Windows
    2. Click on File and then *Import and Export*
    3. Choose *Export to a file* and hit Next
    4. Choose *Comma Separated Values (Windows)* and hit Next
    5. Then highlight Contacts and hit Next
    6. Choose a filename and a place to save the exported file and hit Next
    7. Confirm with a check mark next to *Export "Contacts" from folder: Contacts* and hit Finish
    The above will have generated a file with the exported contacts from Outlook. Remember its name and location on the HD.
    1. Open Entourage in Leopard
    2. Go to File and choose Import
    3. Place a check mark on *Contacts or Messages from a text file* and click the *Right Arrow* at the bottom right of the window.
    4. Place a check mark on *Import contacts from a tab- or comma-delimited text file* and click on the *Right Arrow* at the bottom right of the window.
    5. Locate the file that you created above and highlight it in the next window. Once done then hit Import
    That should bring in all the contacts into Entourage.
    The above instructions are for importing outlook contacts into Entourage (Office 2008 for Mac). If you have any other version then it should still work however the menu choices may be slightly different.

  • Is there a way to set an auto sync feature to icloud and windows contacts without using outlook or Windows live messenger just straight to windows contacts?

    Need to sync icloud contacts to windows contacts without using outlook or windows live messenger on my pc, i have itunes and icloud fully set up on my pc and i have an ipad2. itunes setting for syncing to windows contacts is not working, nor will it sync to my gmail. I tried to get icloud to sync to my gmail, and thought that i could then sync my gmail to windows contacts, but icloud isn't syncing to gmail either. I configured it correctly, (or at least tried). I was able to copy the csv and all that, and do it manualy, but would like it to sync automatically. Please help.
    using itunes new version (9/30/2012), on my windows 7 pc. My ipad2 is running ios 6.

    No, you need Outlook.

  • Why is Yahoo contact showing as "unknown" ?

    I didn't notice any problems initially, but after using Lion for nearly 2 months now, I suddenly have Yahoo contacts in iChat who are not displaying a status when they're online. I've confirmed that their status is set to available and it shows up normally in Adium. But in iChat, their status just shows as "unknown".
    What's the deal?
    I tried removing all iChat preferences from the ~/Library/Preferences folder. No change.
    Any ideas?

    Hi,
    I have a possible.
    Taking an AIM login as an example.
    This has two statuses you can set. Green/Available and Red/Away.
    If you don't touch your Keyboard or Mouse for 10 Minutes your Buddy List indicator will go Amber/Idle.
    The AIM app itself on PC also Displays Away and Idle but iChat does not (You can mouse over your Buddy to find out though)
    AIM Accounts can also be set to Invisible in iChat 4 and above, in a sort of Over and above sort of way giving you effectively 8 states.
    I know the Yahoo app (For Mac (beta 3) ) can log you in as Invisible and be set to Invisible once launched.
    I have not played with it enough to know all the Buddy Status settings/colours
    I would guess it is one of these states that iChat cannot display.
    Which one of the 8 potentials will take some finding out.  (And that is not excluding Multiple Logins caused by the Web Version of Yahoo Messenger or Adium or ProteusX or the Yahoo app itself being logged in as well).

  • Using integrated camera with Windows Live Messenger

    Hello everyone
    I've just got a MacBook Pro and wondered if anyone could tell me how to use the camera facility with MSN please?
    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.

  • Help with syncing yahoo contacts

    currently sync my contacts with outlook but am soon to change it to sync with yahoo!
    When I sync them for the 1st time will all the info on the iphone be transferred to yahoo or the other away around??
    I know this sounds daft but my contact list on yahoo isn't upto date and don't particularly want to loose my up to date data.
    All advice greatfully received!

    yes it is, but once you have it set up it will sync with your Address Book at the click of a button! I have only discovered this in the past couple of weeks and for the first time ever I can sync my contacts at home with Yahoo and also sync all my contacts on my windows work pc with Yahoo. In effect Yahoo Contacts is now the database for all of my contacts and will sync effortlessly with my PC, my Mac, and consequently my iPhone!!
    See the Help section on the Yahoo Mail webpage for more info.
