RE: Contacts problem
The .pls script still does not help me....I cannot edit my contact list by any means...I am sure, however, that it is not my computer's problem as it happens from anywhere I log in. I think that someone from MSN should give some answers on when this problem will be solved...or give solutions THAT WORKS!

RE: Contacts problem
Yeah, I've tried that several times and found out that, although I have MSN Live version 8.0, I do not have the Policies key in my registry. I, however, have the Shared Key under HKCU\Software\Microsoft\WindowsLive\CommunicationsClient. Deleting that having closed the messenger and then restarting it does not make any difference :(

Fix

Delete you handshaking policy cache:

   1. Exit Messenger completely (this means right clicking the Messenger tray icon and choosing Exit).

   2. Open your registry editor (Start > Run > regedit.exe) and navigate to:
         for Messenger 8.0: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\MSNMessenger
         for Messenger 8.1: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\WindowsLive\CommunicationsClient

   3. Once there, you must remove the following subkeys:
         for Messenger 8.0: Policies
         for Messenger 8.1: Shared

   4. Close your registry editor and restart Messenger.


IT WORKS!!! THANKS THANKS THANKS :o)

Wow for a mac I'd have no idea.

Maybe join the Dark Side and use Windows and throw the Mac thru a window? :D

RE: Contacts problem
does this work if my contacts dont update?
Just because you love someone doesn't mean you have to be involved with them. Love is not a bandage to cover wounds.

RE: Contacts problem

To Find out what this issue is:

LOG IN using www.webmessenger.msn.com/

There Add a contact. In the YELLOW Bar when it saying "adding contact" (after you add a contact) it'll either Successfully install your contact or say "ADDRESS FULL"

If it says Address Full, Start pruning your contact. Needs less then 1,000 entries.

Then it'll let you add new contacts.

If it says its successful, use the REG file to update your registery and your DONE!!

GOOD LUCK.
