How to use Messenger live! plus? by SaraMathilde on 05-31-2008 at 03:28 PM

I have installed the newest version of messenger live! plus on my computer, together with Windows Live Messenger 8 (I have Windows XP).
I downloaded it from the homepage, and followed the instructions to install it, and I did install it. Now don't know how to satrt the program, and I can't find on my list of programs. :S

Can you please help me?  :$

Messenger plus! Live starts when you start messenger. You do not need to run it seperatly at all. After you have signed into messenger you should see the plus icon in the menu bar:

hold on, does plus 4.60 support WLM 8.0?#

try upgrading to WLM 8.5 to be on the safe side

Sorry, I have the newest version of WLM.. :)

@john-t: I've trķed to follow these steps, yet still the icons doesn't show up?

my WLM (which I now made sure is the most recent) looks like this:

Click the menu icon of msn, then select plus then Preferences. Then go to the tab Messenger and The select contact list. The first option must have a tick in order for the buttons to show.

@Basilis ... Ehm, when I go to the menu in MSN/WLM, it doesn't say anything about "plus"? :S

My menu looks like this:

(Files, contacts, action (send an onlinemessage, make a videocall etc.), function (perferences/adjustments, and help)

My WLM is in Danish... It might be easier for me to follow the instructions, if it was in English but I don't know how to change the language :S

Then you haven't installed Plus! Did you saw the configuration Wizard after you installed it?


RE: How to use Messenger live! plus? by SaraMathilde on 06-01-2008 at 11:26 AM

@Basilis: No, I didn't.. It just said: "Installation going on.." and it was through with that, there was no further informaiton on the screen, it just quit...


RE: How to use Messenger live! plus? by Basilis on 06-01-2008 at 11:37 AM

Then, try re-installing it. And then, when Messenger signs in, you should see the Configuration Wizard


RE: How to use Messenger live! plus? by SaraMathilde on 06-01-2008 at 01:05 PM

I've now tried to re-install it.. yet still no configuration wizard shows up, when I sign into WLM.


RE: How to use Messenger live! plus? by Basilis on 06-01-2008 at 01:13 PM

I can only suggest that you uninstall both WLM and Messenger Plus! and then install the latest version of WLM (8.5) and then re-install again Messenger Plus!


RE: How to use Messenger live! plus? by SaraMathilde on 06-01-2008 at 02:30 PM

It still doesn't work :S


RE: How to use Messenger live! plus? by Basilis on 06-01-2008 at 02:39 PM

Can you please check if Plus! is listed in the list of programs installed in your computer?


RE: How to use Messenger live! plus? by SaraMathilde on 06-01-2008 at 03:06 PM

It is :D


RE: How to use Messenger live! plus? by Basilis on 06-01-2008 at 03:20 PM

Then run the Repair wizard from the Uninstaller.


RE: How to use Messenger live! plus? by SaraMathilde on 06-01-2008 at 04:47 PM

I'll try that thanks :)

EDIT:
after useing the repair function, it still doesn't work :S

What anti-virus or sypware programs do you have running? Any add blockers or registry guards etc?


RE: How to use Messenger live! plus? by SaraMathilde on 06-02-2008 at 05:27 PM

My anti-virus program is Avast! home edition..
My anti-spyware program is Ad-Aware 2007
I have Google Toolbar installed in Internet Explorer..
I don't think I have any add blockers or registry guards on my computer.. Just Windows Firewall :)
