Notification Problems by RadioRedHead on 05-16-2005 at 08:51 PM

I hope someone can help.  I have searched the forums but can't find my answer. 

When my status is online, my notifications and sounds work fine.  When my status is "busy" I get a sound, but no pop-up notifications.

I have the "display notifications even when status is set to busy" option enabled, so I am stumped. 

Can anyone help? :S

Make sure the box above it is ticked too.

Enable Messenger Plus! notification windows :)


In the main MSN options go to Personal and see if the box 'Show me as Busy and block my alerts...' is that ticked?

I will try that.. the first suggestion was already enabled and it still didn't work.
well that didn't work either - forgot to mention I do get notifications when users go offline, just no sign-in pop-up.

*baffled*

Do you have anything else running with MSN Messenger? Other patches/plug ins?

Other than msg plus, I have another plug-in that is currently disabled, I will try to remove it and see if that helps.

Thanks for your suggestions... hopefully at some point we'll figure it out.

Can i ask which Plug in it is?


RE: Notification Problems by RadioRedHead on 05-16-2005 at 09:14 PM

it's called moody - I don't like it so I wanted it removed anyway.



Still didn't work...  very strange.

I can try that - will I lose all of my installed winks????
RE: Notification Problems by mwe99 on 05-16-2005 at 09:35 PM

Nope you won't lose the winks as their stored with your passport information on you computer

No, don't worry about them. They are stored in a separate folder in application data.

Thanks guys -  I will re-install later on and let you know!

Well no luck - same behaviour - when I am busy, the only notification I get is when someone goes offline (sound and pop-up fine) - now I don't even get sound when someone signs in... is this a bug  - does it work for you?

All sound / notification options are on... [Image: sad.gif]

Are you using the boss protection mode busy, a personalized status busy, or just a regular busy?

I have used both personalized and regular busy.  Now I have installed mess patch (and the same thing occurs.... ) sign-out notification still ok.
