Windows Live doesn't work anymore? by MDevil on 07-18-2006 at 05:11 AM

Hello,

Since 2 day's i've got some trouble's with windows live messenger, I keep getting this error after logging in:
Because of connection problems changes made will not be added if you login on an other computer.
(try'd to translate it from dutch to english^)

See screenshot too!!(it's in dutch but you can see what i mean)


Sometimes Windows live says I've only got 7 people in my list! Sometimes even 0!!

When i un-install windows live messenger and install msn messenger 7.5 everything seems to work again...

Who knows the solution for this VERY strange problem?

Tnx!

Does it work without Messenger Plus! Live?

This has been noted by other forum members, there seems to be problems with the messenger servers for some reason.  It also seems to be making slow signins and when you delete your contact list off your computer it sometimes doesn't download it all.  Just give it some time, I'm sure the messenger people are already on the job.

it's definitely not a Messenger Plus problem as my brother and sister can both sign in to the latest WLM with the latest Plus Live with no problems

i think it's to do with people who opted into the yahoo beta......cos i tried signing in on the family computer and it kept saying i needed to upgrade WLM to continue, yet when my brother and sister signed in it didn't say that.

if i sign in on Windows Messenger (the really old style one) then all my contacts, etc are still there......if you're worried about losing them then sign in on that and save your contact list (which is what i've done)

i'm sure that microsoft will sort the problem out eventually

like yours it doesn't show any contacts when i sign in and it takes ages..

if anyone have the solution plz email not.copied [@] hotmail.com

cheers and will appreciate any help i get

What you could do, is in MSN Messenger 7.5, go to Contacts > Save Instant Messaging Contacts. Save the file somewhere. Then install Windows Live Messenger, go to Contacts > Import Instant Messaging Contacts, select the file you saved before. This file has all your contacts saved to it, so they should all be added. Hopefully that will work, your cotnacts might have to accept an invite if they get one.

You should contact Windows Live Messenger Feedback if you havn't done so already. Tell them your problem.

If I was you, I would just wait, they will be added soon enough. Or just export your contacts incase anything happens.

PS: Please search the forums before posting.

PPS: l0l0l, don't post your e-mail address, spambots will pick-up your e-mail and send you lots of spam!

MSNP14 is only enabled in build 792, hence why it shouldn't have been set loose when it was.

Spambots the world over will take that offer up willingly.

If your contacts are there in another client, then they're there in WLM: it's just WLM fails to cache them properly.

We can't fix it, can we? If you want it fixed, you have to tell them about it.

Are you completely blind? Have you not noticed Windows Live Messenger Feedback has been posted now three times?


RE: Windows Live doesn't work anymore? by MDevil on 07-18-2006 at 07:35 PM

WOW srry dude... i dind't want to make you mad because I have problems...

Edit:

Dude a FEEDBACK is something else then asking msoft for help!!!
A feedback is something so i can say that messenger live sucks... what use is that for me????????

so this isnt the (right) way to contact msoft about it!

A quote from a thread about this same thing... the quote has other threads (not including the one I quoted from) that are about the same thing.

BY now MS knows about the problem... the Feedback or the Help and Support will both work in contacting Microsoft about the problem you are experiencing... You're better off not trying to contact them about it since they are probably busy trying to fix it already.
