Mac Forum / Applications / Other MS Products / November 2004MSN disconecting every 2 mins - CAN ANYONE HELP, PLEASE!
I have recently converted to mac and have brought a Powerbook G4. Since using it I can't get MSN Messenger to stay logged in and it is driving me MAD. It appears that i am on-line at my end but when I go to MSN someone I am logged out. It seems to be happening after a couple of minutes. Can anyone help or advise? I have contacted MSN support 3 times and been fobbed off with a standard message telling me to re-install, which hasn't solved the problem. Any help would be much appreciated - before my Mac goes through the window and I dig out my old laptop and windows!! Thanks Sarah B I have a similar problem with my iBook. Are you on a wireless network by any chance? I've noticed I can just be sitting and waiting on a friend while i do something else and Messenger logs me off... sometimes without even changing the display... so i even think i'm still online. The other odd thing is a buddy will sign-off and i'll get bumped off line. And, like you, there will be nothing wrong with my other network connections, or any other computer in the house. I've tried messing with my time-out settings and my power management settings without success. And yet, same operating system, same MSN at work and it never has this problem. And my husband's powerbook with the same MSN version has had the problem once or twice, but not as often as mine. Go figure. I don't have an answer, just the same problem. Eileen Hi Eileen Snap! I am using an Airport. I tried changing a setting on my router, as suggested in a previous posting, but that didn't cure it either. It is sooooo annoying as no-one seems to be able to giev me an answer and I used to use MSN alot but can only use it when I am near a PC now. Defeats the point of having a mac really if you have to use a PC as well!! Sarah > I have a similar problem with my iBook. Are you on a wireless network > by any chance?
