OS is Operating System, but that hasnt got anything to do with the problem ur having

RE: Help! I can't rename one of my contacts! by Supersonicdarky on 04-10-2005 at 12:31 AM

i'm just asking the general questions *-)

maybe it's 6.2 and plus!? i don't know if 3.50 is completely compatible with 6.2... I suggest upgrade to 7, i'm 75% sure that the bug will be gone

RE: Help! I can't rename one of my contacts! by tropicalpetal on 04-10-2005 at 12:31 AM

oh! the operating system is windows 98

RE: Help! I can't rename one of my contacts! by Hank on 04-10-2005 at 12:34 AM

nope i dont, when you installed 3.50, did you remove the previous MsgPlus or install the 3.50 over the op of an older version?

what happens when you try to rename the contact?

RE: Help! I can't rename one of my contacts! by tropicalpetal on 04-10-2005 at 12:37 AM

when i try to rename the contact, nothing happens. it just stays the same way as it was.

RE: Help! I can't rename one of my contacts! by Supersonicdarky on 04-10-2005 at 12:38 AM

did you try restarting msn? it migyht be slow or something

RE: Help! I can't rename one of my contacts! by tropicalpetal on 04-10-2005 at 12:40 AM

hm...i didn't try restarting it. you know what i'll do? I will get rid of msn and the plus feature and re-download them both. if the problem continues, i will come back.

RE: Help! I can't rename one of my contacts! by Supersonicdarky on 04-10-2005 at 12:42 AM

I don't think it's a problem with msn, so no need to reinstall msn

(being slow is not a problem)

When you try to change the contact what error message do you recieve?

Which way are you trying to rename the contact? By Right Clicking and selecting Messenger Plus! Extras then Rename Contact or are you trying to do it through the Preferences. If you have only tried it one of these ways please try the other way mentions.

Also but posting more then once in a row is against the forum rules. These rules can be found here. Please take a look at the forum rules because it clearly states to not double post. Instead use the [Image: edit.gif] button to the bottom right of the specific post to add more or change what you have put.

I dont think this has an error message, because this happened to me once. I right clicked on a person and plus features and then renamed him. But his name didnt change. So then i just restarted MSN MESSENGER and it all worked fine.
