TICKET ARCHIVE -> messenger id for adium not signing in

sk824 - Mar 25, 2008 - 9:33 pm

Hi,

I've got adium because apparently it's much better and can combine my talk and msn messenger which would be great, but it doesn't sign in my msn id.
Currently, the options settings are as follows:
login server: messenger.hotmail.com
port: 1863
connect via http (checked)
check for new mail (checked)

I just don't get what the problem is. I connect by airport to my house internet.

And is there any way to convert wma files to itunes? It used to work on my PC

Thanks.

Spencer

What if you don't connect via HTTP? Your username is @messengeruser.com or something else?

WMA conversion is built into iTunes for Windows because WMA support is built into Windows. EasyWMA is the cheapest of very few WMA converters I've been able to find on the Mac.

My username is @hotmail.com
If I uncheck connect by HTTP it doesn't connect. It says reading error at one point and keeps trying.

How else can I connect?

Not sure. Let's see who else might know. Thanks for elaboration.
