Receiving messages by Sjjb07 on 12-08-2008 at 09:35 PM
Ive had Msn/WLM for a few years now with no problems. About a month ago i had to reinstall my laptop so i had to download MSN/WLM again.
Since then i havent been able to receive messages people are sending me sometimes and its really frustrating.
I have tried all differeny types for example 7.0 8.0 and now the newst one and still no difference.
Can anyone help please?

Hey, "i had to reinstall my laptop" You mean WLM?
Also, Have you tryed WLM 9.0?
And Maybe its your internet connection..?
RE: Receiving messages by Sjjb07 on 12-09-2008 at 04:47 PM
No i had to reboot it. Like start like it was new. But i saved my files and i have all my files. But i had to download WLM again and thats where the problems have started.
My internet connection is the same as it was before i rebooted my laptop.
I currently have 9.0 installed now and still have the same problems.

Maybe it is not your fault, It could be your friends internet or something similar.
Try pinging them by using /ping and see what the delay is, Like i said most probably not your fault.
Thx

Ping = How long it takes for your friend to get the message you sent.
Try going back to WLM 8.5.

Get Version 8.5 I Think that is 7. :\
I guessed by How It Says Get Version 8.1 Now.
RE: Receiving messages by Sjjb07 on 12-09-2008 at 05:30 PM
No whatever version i have it comes up with that.
With 8.5 it might not but i still have the same problem of them not receiving my messages.

I can tell from the pixels and from having seen the massive "Windows Live Messenger 8.1" in the tittle bar.
quote:No, it only comes up with that because you have 8.1beta, which is very old. 8.5 is the latest stable version. If you completely remove any messenger you have installed now, download and install Windows Live Messenger 8.5 and see if the problem persists, if it does, it is most likely a server issue and as such you'll just have to wait it out. How long have you had this problem?

If you have a second account you can try signing in with that and see if you still get the issue, this'll determine if it is the servers or something on your end. (Different emails connect to different servers)

Whats a proxy?
Well who else can i ask your the only one willing to help and its much appreciated.

Their client should respond with "Pong! [response] 2 sec." or something like that, telling you the time it took to send and receive a message.
RE: Receiving messages by Sjjb07 on 12-09-2008 at 06:47 PM
Yeah it came up with 02 seconds.
Im really out off ideas on how to fix my problem?
RE: Receiving messages by Sjjb07 on 12-10-2008 at 12:10 PM

if you got a response of 2 seconds, it indicates that messages are being received and that you can talk fine to that particular contact. If you had no response it would indicate that either your messages aren't getting through or that your contact does not have Plus!
RE: Receiving messages by Sjjb07 on 12-10-2008 at 05:24 PM
I had no response and that person has windows live messenger but they dont now what type.
