Messenger plus live for mac by dndooon on 08-05-2010 at 06:08 PM

Hi,
I used to be a PC user,
And over the many generation of MPL i can't imagine install WLM without MPL
it becomes part of the deal for the cool stuff it can do.
But nowadays I've become a Mac user and as Microsoft intended to release WLM 8.0 on Mac OSX this fall,
I think it would be a wonderful if there were a MPL for that version to complete it.

Thank you.

A MAC version won't be released. This has been stated plenty of times in the past.

Perhaps if you supply a Mac for Yuna to develop on they might consider it.

I already have one, but I wouldn't mind a second one anyway ;) Jokes aside, you could perhaps inquire to Natalie (she's the Yuna representative) to see if they considered this, seeing as Macs are more and more popular nowadays, and Yuna has more developers working on Plus!

I doubt it would ever happen as the Mac Messenger has no API and the userbase is a lot smaller, so unlikely to ever happen I would imagine!

The Microsoft Messenger for Mac is atricious too, I tend to avoid Messenger on Mac altogether, I tried aMSN for a bit but didn't get on too well with it


RE: Messenger plus live for mac by Dempsey on 08-06-2010 at 04:35 PM

I only use Adium now, not used the official client for years!

Well i don't know if u all tried the WLM 8.0 beta for Mac.
It'll be released this fall and it looks promising.

Please try and refrain from double posting it is against the rules. Instead please use the [Image: edit.gif] button.

As for contacting Yuna this is very simple. Nathalie is our community liason for Yuna Software. Any questions you can direct them to her.

Simple as pie.

Also Macs do not have the API support that Windows does which would make the port very difficult. Just because a newer version is being released doesn't mean it will make it any easier. It is the way Macs are designed.

I didn't know the rules, Sorry.

And thanks for clearing it.
