Blank Contact Cards by Nikib on 10-12-2005 at 03:03 PM
When i click on a contact's 'star' or click on thier display pictures, nothing shows up on thier contact card. 
this happens even when i know my contact has an msn space.
anyone help resolve my problem?

Even not the picture? else, you just have to wait, msn will download them...
RE: Blank Contact Cards by Nikib on 10-12-2005 at 03:18 PM
i can see the picture and the display name.
but i cant see anything from thier msn spaces.

Sign out of MSN, and then back on... should work after that... I think this is a known bug that MSN has yet to fix.

Well, it should work all the time... MSN should really get aruond to fixing that.

RE: Blank Contact Cards by Nikib on 10-12-2005 at 09:24 PM
guess not 
RE: Blank Contact Cards by albert on 10-12-2005 at 09:31 PM
Could it just be certain ppl's spaces not having anything on them?

no becasuse usually they tell me to have a look on thier msn space and i cant, and when i had msn 7.0 it worked.
its only since i installed msn 7.5 that its stopped
RE: Blank Contact Cards by absorbation on 10-13-2005 at 02:44 PM
did you patch msn to remove all buttons from contact card and contact card ingation?
RE: Blank Contact Cards by Nikib on 10-13-2005 at 02:45 PM
dont know what that is 
so proberly no
RE: Blank Contact Cards by absorbation on 10-13-2005 at 02:47 PM
uninstall and reinstall msn if it does not work then the service maybe going under an update and all you can do then is wait 
RE: Blank Contact Cards by Nikib on 10-13-2005 at 02:49 PM
should i download it again from www.msn.com ?
RE: Blank Contact Cards by hexel on 10-13-2005 at 03:03 PM
If you don't have the installer in your computer (anymore), then yes.
RE: Blank Contact Cards by Nikib on 11-12-2005 at 11:07 PM

So have you tried the uninstall/reinstall suggestion? If not, go to Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs and then select MSN. Click repair and see if that works.
If you have already done this, then I'm not sure what the problem is. Have you thoroughly searched the forums for similar problems?
RE: Blank Contact Cards by Nikib on 11-14-2005 at 12:15 PM
yeah ive checked.
but i still have msn 7.0 on my programs list for some reason
do u think i should uninstall them both then instal msn 7.5 again?
also i had a friend screen shot his messenger 7.5 and his has a tab at the top labeled "my msn space" and one labeled "msn today" i dont have these
any ideas?
RE: Blank Contact Cards by Nikib on 11-15-2005 at 03:05 PM
in fact i dont have any tabs at all along the side of my contacts or above
RE: Blank Contact Cards by haydos on 11-15-2005 at 04:07 PM
Have you got tabs disabled?
I was also experiencing the same problem but I restored the contact list tabs and all contact cards started to work again.
You can check by going to
Tools> Options> Security> There is a checkbox saying "this is a shared computer so dont display my tabs"
Make sure the box is not checked and try again
RE: Blank Contact Cards by Nikib on 11-16-2005 at 09:38 PM
nope lol still no clue
a think the problem is that i only have the messenger tab no others
how do i get them all?
cheers
