    - no pictures? I have bought a notebook with Windows Vista on it. Also Messenger Live, I can log in with my usual name / password from MSN Messenger 7 which I always used on PC. I can see all the usual contacts in my list, but they all appear without a picture. How is this? I have assigned a picture for myself, which appears on top in the Messenger window, but not in the list. Can't find settings to adjust this... -- regards, |\ /| | \/ |@rk \../ \/os Tag: "Not win32 application" message when trying to install messenger.. Tag: 92221

    - gosh this is stupid... I haven't had time to play around with my messenger profile for about 3 years, but I was trying to update my profile this evening. I suppose they have changed and added a lot behind my back, but I think the interface has become real chaotic. Also, it seems that I'm still 51 years old (wish that were true). Is it really that stupid not to add one year each year??? So I tried to correct this, but this ALSO doesn't seem to work. When I try to edit my birth date I can enter a day, a month, but when I try to enter the year it says 2008. And NO other options in the dropdown list! Maybe I'll have another go at this when I have a LOT of spare time... -- regards, |\ /| | \/ |@rk \../ \/os Tag: "Not win32 application" message when trying to install messenger.. Tag: 92205

    - Ping: Jonathan Kay Hi Jonathan, When i purchased my computer it had Windows Messenger 4.7 and getting Verizon with MSN premium got a second Messenger. Now not ever using Windows Messenger 4.7 A while back i went from MSN Messenger 7.5 to Windows Live Messenger 8.1 so when i look in all programs i have two - Windows Live 8.1 and Windows Messenger 4.7 programs. BUT in add/remove there is MSN Messenger 7.5 and Windows Live Messenger 8.1 with Windows Messenger 4.7 not listed at all. Does version 7.5 need to stay in add/remove being a part of Live 8.1 or can it be removed? Also with Windows Messenger 4.7 NOT being in add/remove and never being used do i need to keep it or is it removable, and how would it be removed? So if it's possible i would like to only end up with WLM 8.1. Thanks, Ron Tag: "Not win32 application" message when trying to install messenger.. Tag: 92192

    - Very BZARRE Problem With Windows Live Messenger 8.5 Hello there, I recently had a really, REALLY strange thing happen to me with Windows Live Messenger 8.5. I've been spending hours upon end trying to solve it and have still not come up with anything. Here's the story: I've been using Windows Live Messenger 8.5 for probably about 3 months now with no errors whatsoever. A few days ago, I signed out and went to bed. I woke up the next day, double-clicked to open up Windows Live Messenger 8.5 and nothing happened. I checked the computer's processes, and it said that the messenger process was running, but I could not use it. Naturally, I decided to uninstall it and re-install it. After re-installing the messenger, I tried to open it up and yet again, the process started but nothing happened. At this point I figured something must have gone wrong and corrupted in the registry. So I uninstalled it again, cleared out any files (visible and hidden) that had to do with Windows Live Messneger, and then opened up my Registry Crawler. From there, I deleted any entry that was related to Windows Live Messenger. I repeated this multiple times, as well as the fact that I used CCleaner to fix any registry issues afterwards. I then restarted the computer, and proceeded to install Windows Live Messenger 8.5 again. Here's the weird part. Every time I booted up the installer, it told me that I already had it installed and I was good to go. Huh? I did a registry search and not one key was connected to Windows Live Messenger, yet the installer told me I was ready to start chatting. So I restarted again, and then ran a Disk Cleanup and Defragmented my hard drive. I then restarted again once the processes were finished, and tried to install the messenger once more. Same problem. For some reason the computer was telling the installer that everything is installed and working. I even tried to install older versions of Messenger (8.1, 7.5 and 7.0) however each installer said that I already have the latest version installed, and that if I wish to continue I should go to Add/Remove Programs and uninstall it...but it isn't there...because it isn't on my computer anywhere. I truly do not understand is going on here. How is it possible that the installers think that I have Windows Live Messenger 8.5 perfectly installed when there is no trace of it at all on the computer (not in the registry nor any visible or hidden folders)? I came here to the Microsoft newsgroups, because hopefully you can help me out here, as you obviously know more about this stuff than me. Thanks for your time, spider-fan P.S. I'm not sure if System Restore is an option at this moment, because there is a chance that this fiasco may have started after my earliest restore point.

    - I uninstalled MSN Messenger, but I keep getting messages anyways I (think) I uninstalled Messenger and all its little bits of junk about a month ago, but just recently, I suddenly started getting instant messages from my friends, though the main MSN Messenger window can't be found anywhere on my computer, and a search through all files came up with no results. Apparently I am online and active, and I am able to chat back, but I don't know how this is happening. Any idea why this might be happening? I'm not too fond of MSN ghosts :) Thanks. -- I hate Microsoft, but I need it. Welcome to the world of ironic technology. Tag: "Not win32 application" message when trying to install messenger..

    - Account won't stay logged in I recently bought a brand new Sony Vaio laptop and the first software I installed was MSN Messenger. I have two different MSN accounts. One of them I can login and use with no problems, while the other will (what appears) to disconnect and then try to connect again once the try again countdown finishes. I have tried to log into that account at another computer and no problems, connects as it should, but then if I try to connect again on my computer it does the same problem. Any ideas?

    - Live Messenger Crashes I am currenlty running Vista, Office Enterprise 2007 and MSN Live Messenger 8.5 and has been crashing for over 6 months. I also have Groove installed, and now that I think of it, it seem to have started after installing Groove. There are two scenarios I see when it crashes 1) If someone IM's me, it will crash. 2) When one of my contacts logins in, it crashes. I can start it back up and send an IM, and at times, get one or two from my contact and then it will crash. -- Michael Wharton, MBA, PMP, MCSD, MCSE+I, MCDBA Wharton Computer Consulting, Inc "Managing Efficiency thru Technology" Tag: "Not win32 application" message when trying to install messenger..

    - I want to block IM, but not Hotmail I want to block select, previously approved, people from seeing me in IM; but I still want them to be able to send me email in HotMail. When I block someone in MSN IM, it seems they can no longer send me email to my hotmail account. Some customers just wont leave me alone in IM. They ping me 24x7 for every little thing. I want to block them in IM. However, I still want them to be able to send me email to the same Hotmail account. This gives them 2 minutes to figure out their own issue before they cry for help. There has to be a setting I am missing that will allow them to send me email, but block them in IM. Thanks for the assistance! -- Jim.

    - Web Cam freezes with Live Messenger Can anyone advise how to deal with a cam freezing up with Live Messenger ? I have searched on google and there seems to be a lot of discussion on this topic - but no solutions that I can see. Both cams in a link are Logitech - but the freezing only affects one person not both. The freeze is worse if you do a video call - as then it just stops altogether. However if you only do cam and no sound then it does freeze - but will unfreeze after a while - and then freeze again.

    - MSN messenger for Win 2000 hangs on sign in Hi! Any idea why msn messenger 7 downloaded from Microsoft website (for Win 2000) hangs after installation while attempting to sign in. I had it installed for quite a while and was working properly until a couple of weeks ago. I installed Microsoft.net/Frames 2.0 that came with camera software, not sure if that had anything to do with it. Uninstalled it, did Microsoft update , reinstalled msn messenger 7, no avail. Also weird, sometimes when I installed it then signed in, I would get a message saying I needed to upgrade, I agreed, then from what I can tell it downloaded the same version again.

    - Live photo gallery Not sure where to post this but since it's downloaded with messenger thought I might ask here... I've just installed windows live photo gallery as part of the upgrade to messenger that popped up today, I've added my main pictures directy to the program. When I view the pictures via the directory listing (at the top of the left panel) everything displays correctly, in directory order. When I select the date ordered listing (again from the left panel), the pictures are displayed but some are duplicated (one was even triplicated). I've checked that my pictures directory wasn't included in the original install and I've 're-added' it (which wouldn't account for the selective duplicates though), I've removed the directory and re-added to completely and I get the same problem. The duplicate pictures are the exact same picture listed twice, there are no duplicates on my hard drive. When I view the pictures via the slideshow (clicking forward or back manually) it still show the picture twice and thus requires two clicks to advance to the next picture. Any ideas what's wrong (or where I should post this question?)

    - Live Messenger hangs when browsing for new display picture I've got Live Messenger v8.1 (maybe it's the most recent version...I dunno, cause get.live.com doesn't actually say what the latest version is) . Recently, I tried changing my display picture (which I've done many times before with no problems), but now, as soon as I click the Browse button, Messenger hangs to the point of needing a process kill (clicking anywhere in the Messenger windows leads to a Win chime, it's completely unresponsive even to the point of not giving a menu on the Taskbar when right-clicked). Anyone experience this error, and if so, is there a way to make it go away short of going back to Windows Messenger? Messenger's the only Live app I'll install (the toolbar was so unstable, I just don't trust software from that division any more, and this issue isn't helping), but consistant app hangs are something I can't tolerate.

an hour yesterday. We managed to get dnload the install file to his HD but
when he ran the exe file he got an error "not win32 application"...
Can anyone help me and him out???
