Am I blind? by bdiddy on 11-20-2006 at 03:32 PM

Just curious. I just installed Messenger Plus! and it was working more than fine and then I left for work with the event viewer open. I came back and my brother had closed out the window but said he did not touch anything else. I cannot however figure out for the life of me where the settings menu/button is supposed to be for Messenger Plus! and I have no idea how to get the even viewer back open. Thanks for your help!

In your Contact List Plus! > Display Event Viewer. :D

Go to your contact list and click the plus logo and select open event viewer.

What if you turned that button off in the preferences? (the way i turned it off was event viewer->options->preferences->messenger->Main->Plus! Shortcut and I unchecked that)

Thanks again!

Contactlist Plus! menu (in the menu bar)>Preferences>Messenger>Main>turn it back on ;)

Or

(as posted by -!Felu!-)
Contactlist Plus! menu (again in the menu bar)>Display Event Viewer

looks like you're blind indeed, you should have read the first reply (Felu's) ;)

Hang on a minute...lets get one thing straight, how could you use the event viewer if you couldn't see a Plus! icon or the Plus! on the menu bar?

If you were able to use it and now you can't restart messenger, if that doesn't work let us know and I'll provide you a link that should hopefully correct it.

I uninstalled plus! and sweetIM. I forgot I had that loaded onto my machine. I installed plus! and it worked fun, then i loaded sweetIM, and it disappeared. So I am assuming its a conflict with SweetIM, correct?


RE: Am I blind? by MattyRid on 11-22-2006 at 05:12 AM

Indeed. SweetIM and Messenger Plus! are known to have conflicts with each other

So much so that the latest beta of plus even disables SweetIM when it's installing, so I assume there are horrible incompatibilites.  So, you should probably only use one of them.  May I suggest plus? :P

Won't always work...if you can't see a plus! menu icon or the plus! menu in the menu bar of Windows Live Messenger, then doing what you are sayingwill not always work either to which 9 times out of 10 is the case.
