    - can't sign in to MSN This only started last weekend and I've tried everything I can think of. When I try to sign in to Messenger a dialogue box appears saying my firewal may be blocking my access however when I go in to Zone Alarm setup Messenger has been allowed! I have done a 'repair' and I get all ticks down the side. Not sure what else to do. My Zone Alarm is on a MEd setting and I haven't changed it at all in the last 2 weeks! Any ideas?

    - Webcam driver for Canon PowerShot A85? Is anyone aware of a webcam driver for the Canon PowerShot A85? The camera is not advertised as a webcam, but it is technically possible (works under Linux) to use the viewfinder image as the webcam image. The viewfinder image can be seen by launching Canons ZommBrowserEx and start the remote capture tool. As one can see, the image is not of excellent quality, but it should be sufficient for simple webcam use. Tag: msn beta invitation Tag: 84669

    - Double sign in ... not true I am on a home network working through a Linksys router but am not able to sign into Messenger using two different accounts on two different PCs. When I sign in with one account (mywife@ratcliffefamily.co.uk) it signs out my other account (me@ratcliffefamily.co.uk) on the other PC. I receive the popup saying that I am signed in on another computer when this happens even though it is not true. Does anybody have any ideas or know any workarounds?

    - MSN Messenger to Windows Live Messenger when it goes final? I'm curious whether users of MSN Messenger 7.5 will be forced up to Windows Live Messenger 8.0 when it is released, or if you can stick with 7.5 without it complaining to upgrade. -- Kristan M.

    - Delay sign in? When I first log onto Windows XP Pro, my a/v software (NIS 2005) loads. WHile NIS is trying to load, MSN Messenger 7.5 tries to connect to my profile and is unable to. If I then wait a few seconds (long enough for NIS to finish), I can then successfully log onto MSN Messenger. Is there a way to postpone the automatic sign in or to allow it to sign in during NIS? I get tired of receiving the error message (very generic, basically says MSN cannot connect at this time) and having to sign in manually. Tag: msn beta invitation Tag: 84646

    - How to delete own account? Hi there, I've got a friend who's been using MSN Messenger for some time. It seems like she didn't get the confirmation email when she signed up, and now can't goto the option to change her displayed name, which is currently displaying her email address. Is there a way to delete her own account and re-register as a new user, or is her only choice to sign up using a different email? Thanks! Tag: msn beta invitation Tag: 84639

    - Can't transmit files between work & home I have MSN Messenger 7.5 running on my home pc and on my work pc, different accounts. I want to send files between my work/home pc's using messenger, but when I try, it gets as far as 'Waiting for (user) to accept', and just sits there, the other pc never gets a message about an incoming file. It will either sit there, or eventually get 'The invitation could not be sent'. This happens not matter which pc I try to send from. Any idea what's causing this? FYI, I did verify MSN Messenger is an exception in my home firewall, I also have a home router, but I've not read anything about ports needing opened up. I have no access/control of the firewall at work. Thanks, Dave Tag: msn beta invitation Tag: 84637

    - Question on invitations, plus error message question I tried to invite someone into a group conversation yesterday, and it immediately bounced, with a message saying that the "Invitation could not be delivered" Others in the group have had the same problem with this particular account. I checked with her today, and she has not blocked any of us (and I believe her). And we did have a one on one chat today. Any idea what might have produced this kind of invitation decline, without any knowledge on her part, on multiple occasions? We work as a design team from different cities, bringing someone into a chat is often important, and we'd like to figure this out. And while I'm here, is there a reason why the Messenger Help Search can't seem to find particular error messages? On more than one occasion, I've had trouble connecting, and when I've gone through the troubleshooting guide, it doesn't seem to recognize the error message number it is giving me. (For example, today, I had Error 81000377 Contact list could not be accessed -- I couldn't find a thing on this. I tried flushing the DNS cache, and eventually, I got in, but really -- why isn't there more info online?) Thanks for the insight! Tag: msn beta invitation Tag: 84633

    - Appear offline to others but online to myself I have been experiencing this problem for a few days now, I see everyone online and I can talk to them but they say I appear offline. There are also irregular timeouts when other people try to talk to me. This problem, stating that this is a server-side problem, is one major problem and if I search enough to find other people experiencing the same problem, it seems there is no proper solution to this problem? I tried several other PC's, other networks to connect to MSN but they all seem to have the same problem. It is not a constant problem because sometimes I appear online for some time but that's it...

    - Limiting other users Contact List Hi, I have a client. They want to install MSN messenger on all PC'S. But they should have only people of that company on their list. I can't limit them by policies etc. because they are in various cities and some of them have servers and others are working on workgroups. Is it possible to create a group and limiting the users contact list of that group with that list? :) Thanks in advance, Cakin Akcor Tag: msn beta invitation Tag: 84618

    - Customize Live Messenger BETA I want to show the display picture beside the contacts in the main Live Messenger BETA window, so i chose details. However, i want to make the size of these pictures small; can any one tell me how to do it? Also, by choosing details, the contact's address appears under the login name of each contact, is there a way to remove it? Another thing, in the IM window, when i choose a picture for the background, the area where the texts appears becomes transparent. This makes it hard to read the text; can this be changed? I still want to choose the background. Also, can i change the background of Live Messenger BETA main window too? thank you Tag: msn beta invitation Tag: 84565

    - Away status flashing for VMWare User Here's a wacky one that a cursory Google search couldn't solve. My network has a user who uses Ubuntu on a daily basis. He runs VMWare in Ubuntu and connects to the domain with a Windows XP virtual machine for his office apps. We use Windows Messenger internally for IM purposes. When he is logged in, his entry in the Online listing within Windows Messenger rapidly changes to add (Away) every other second. For example, let's say his name is 'Bob Thomas'. Here's what it says in second 1. Bob Thomas Here's second two: Bob Thomas (Away) Here's second three: Bob Thomas Needless to say, this is aggravating. Anybody have any ideas so that the flashing stops? Tag: msn beta invitation Tag: 84538

    - editing My Space and still having the *local* ads Hi, I want the language, "they" let me edit "My Space" in to be *english*, as I don't want my computer to talk to me in my native language, which would be german. Actually I work abroad within Europe, and I don't want to confront people with german, so english is THE choice. So I set in Account Services (accountservices.msn.com) my "Home location" to "United Kingdom", this is at least within Europe, but that has some consequences, like when talking about money and costs, "they" show me the amounts in British Pound, not in Euro. And I also get UK ads shown. Actually I don't want to see any ads at all, but any "local" ads would be preferred over non-local ads, if you know what I mean. Windows itself has regional options, and I can compose a set, that is convient to me, but Account Services and MSN work different. Looks like a Gordian knot to me ... ;-( Any advise appreciated.

    - Upgraded Messenger Live on May 10 - Computer is crawling It took HOURS for my PC to finally get fully loaded, and it literally feels like I am using a 10 mhz machine. I choose the option to integerate passport login with explorer or something like that. The pc runs fine in safe mode, but the windows installer is not accessible to remove the program. I tried to system restore to the point before install, it executed ok, but did not fix the problem. The problem starts the moment the login screen comes up in normal mode. the green light for my hard drive goes solid, but I dont hear much reading from disk. It takes more than 20 minutes to get past the "loading your personal settings..." screen. Any ideas? Tag: msn beta invitation Tag: 84525

    - My friends see me as offline, even if my status is set to online!! Hello, For the past week, iv'e been having trouble with msn messenger. When I message my friends, they see me as offline, even though a tab comes on their toolbar. I have set my status to online/away/busy. And nothing seems to have worked. Occasionaly my friends will be able to see me as online, but then after about 30 minutes my status is back as offline. When my friends see me offline, ive continuously checked to see if my own status has changed, which it hasn't. I have never had this problem before, and am getting very frustrated by what is going on now. Amazingly this problem also occurs when I attempt to use MSN web Messenger, windows messenger, and even a program called Trillian. I actually noticed this problem when I had installed the beta version of Internet Explorer 7. When I started msn messenger after installing IE7, it would work, and then after about 15 secs, an error would pop up and the program would hang, resulting in me having to manually having to end the program through the task manager. I decided to uninstall IE7, and once I did, the Msn Messenger stopped stalling. I thought everything was back to normal, apparently it isn't. Like I said above, on various occasion people will see me as offline. It used to happen occasionaly, but now it happens all the time. The only way for me to start a conversation with a perosn is for me to message them, and try to grab their attention useing the nudge button. If they were to attempt to message me from their contacts list, I would have appeared offline, even though Im actually online. Im am so aggravated at the moment, and will do anything to find a solution to this problem. ALL advice is welcome. Please help, ASAP!!!! This is urgent Tag: msn beta invitation Tag: 84515
