Cannot view Contact Cards by MikeTheThug on 06-18-2005 at 06:23 PM

Hello,

I recently haven't been able to view people's contact cards. The problem just occoured, I didn't download any add-ons or whatever. When I click the button to view there contact card, nothing appears.

Does anyone have a solution to this?

Thanks in advance

-Mike (The Thug)

I don't think that a contact card not appearing would be anything to do with server maintenance. If he could see the contact card, but nothing appeared on it, then maybe, but as the contact card won't appear, it's probably something wrong with the actual program.

Try uninstalling through control panel, add/remove programs, MSN Messenger, Remove.

Then download and install from messenger.msn.com.

Also, is anything else not working properly, or is it only the contact cards.

It does that to me sometimes, some people's cards will load and some won't. Usually, if I go to that contact's space straight in the browser, it says, "This space is temporarely unavailable". So probably that's why MSN can't download anything to put on the card.

Are you talking about Spaces loading on the contact card or the contact card not appearing at all?

I think MikeTheThug was saying that nothing appears at all when he clicks the button. Well, that's what i got from it.

ahh, if it's just the spaces info not loading then, well server problem, but if a dp and name etc doesn't show, then what monster.rat said earlier on in this thread...

I tried that and it still doesn't work. Its just the contact card thats not working.

And to clear up what the others were saying, the contact card does not show at all. I can still get to MSN Spaces via the MSN Spaces button at the top (beside MSN Today). Its just the contact card that isn't showing up. Thats my only problem.
