| 1288457 | 2012-07-14 10:22:00 | Hi Guys, been a while since i have posted here. 12 days a go I joined the ranks of mac users, loving it but... I use msn messenger heaps and for some reason i am really struggling to get it running on the mac. I have the latest version of iMac, have installed and reinstalled v8.0.1 man messenger etc etc. contacts i have are only showing as offline when i know they are online, i don't show as online to them. my friends are all windows users but surely they should still be showing online. I have googled the crap out of the problem and can't find a solution that works. I have tried all sorts, anyone out there who has had the same problems? thanks in advance |

| 1288462 | 2012-07-19 09:29:00 | Can't you use iChat to log into MSN? | Cato (6936) | ||
