so ? u gonna help me or what ? did u know what im talking about ?

RE: The new msg live plus and old preferences by Reload2 on 06-23-2006 at 01:48 AM

Well yes, I think the settings are stored somewhere and the function of 3.xx that have been keeped in 4.0 will use the old settings

Edit: The renamed contacts settings won't be keeped as it's now a function of Windows Live Messenger itself

RE: The new msg live plus and old preferences by Jalh on 06-23-2006 at 01:50 AM

Well as I said, Messenger Plus 3.xx will be fully compatible with Messenger Plus! Live so as the settings probably 8-) I don't see why you have to loose all your settings . Of course, you will be keeping only the settings that the functions are remained in 4.00 (like Jalh asked about the renaming feature who will be removed in 4.00)

what did you say?

, im not trying to accumulate post, im trying to help the people

here is the full answer
Your saved preferences with wizard couldnt be compatibles, but in a future version it could

Your not saved preferences like emotion sounds, or any that Reload2 said, has been saved automaticaly and updated to the new plus!(it could too, i cant tried Plus! Live yet).

RE: The new msg live plus and old preferences by Reload2 on 06-23-2006 at 03:34 AM

Well there's something in your post MX-G, that doesn't make sense: You say that the saved preferences with wizard couldn't be compatibles but in a future version. But the future version is 4.00. I don't see why in 4.00 you won't be able to import settings but in 4.10 or after you could import your settings. It's kinda silly

RE: The new msg live plus and old preferences by MX-G on 06-23-2006 at 03:36 AM

Future version im referring another plus live version, and im saying could and couldnt

RE: The new msg live plus and old preferences by absorbation on 06-23-2006 at 08:28 AM

In the final build, some settings can be imported. However, not everything, it is as simple as that ok ?

RE: The new msg live plus and old preferences by Sunshine on 06-23-2006 at 10:34 AM

Woah i can't believe how many posts this thread has...why do people post when they don't know? Please stop that!

Ofcourse things that aren't in Plus!Live (or were replaced by a WLM function) that were in plus!3 can't be imported.

All those posts before absorbation's are were totally unnessecairy, wrong, inaccurate, etc...

please read the whole freaking post before you reply.

STOP POSTING JUST TO GET YOUR POST COUNT UP.

Let's be sensible for a bit:

It is harder for a KNOWLEDGEABLE helper to fix the problems you have caused by giving INACCURATE information than if they helped them out first. Some of the fixes that you can give, that are ENTIRELY WRONG can be VERY HARD to undo.

Read this, and read it well. I gave up helping on here for a bit because it is so hard to tell between spam and help. Please guys, post only if you know the answer...

If you do not know the answer, or if you did not tested something out in the proper way, DO NOT POST.

-------------------------------------------

To elaborate more on absorbation's correct statement:

- When you install Messenger Plus! Live, it will automatically port most settings of Messenger Plus! 3. Not all settings will be imported of course as some settings are redundant and others now have much more suboptions.

- Exported preference files (.PLD files) made in Messenger Plus! 3 can NOT be imported back into Messengr Plus! Live; Exported preference files are version specific; Messenger Plus! Live preference files are not compatible with Messenger Plus! 3 and vice versa.

- Custom names of your contacts will not be ported to Messenger Plus! Live, as that feature isn't available anymore in Messenger Plus! Live since Windows Messenger Live already has a nickname feature.

- In Messenger Plus! Live, a general configuration wizard will be available too, but this will list only the general options. Since Messenger Plus! Live has more and new options, it is very adviseable to browse every configuration panel and review each option the first time you use Messenger Plus! Live anyways.
