Display Name not updating!! (WLM) by Nagamasa on 06-13-2006 at 02:36 AM

I update my display name, yet it updates in after a long time or sometimes never if I get logged out. Does anyone know what's wrong? Anyone got any fixes?

Googolplex thanks from Nagamasa.

Its just lag with the servers your area connects to. It should resolve itself.

How can it be lag when it doesnt update in an hour?

Also, it appears that when this happens, I also get error code 80004005 too if I logged out...

Quick guess: there's a little bar saying 'Due to connection problems, changes you make may not appear on other computers'?

Nope, but there is a bar about the Customer Improvement Program or whatever it is....

Googolplex HELP!! from Nagamasa.

A trick I've found (because my display pic sometimes reverts to the previous one) is once you've changed your name/pic, log out immediately, then log back in again.  This should solve your problem. Unfortuantely it's not ideal.

Unfortuantly, that didn't work too....

Lets hope this is fixed in the final version that is supposedly coming out in 3 days, along with my 80004005 error.
