This is a very good tutorial, thank you very much for this help. Will share it with all my friends :-)
Only one thing, I didn't find any transports on the adres you give for MSN, so I used jabber.hot-chilli.net for this.
But works well- thks again.

Hi

i had the same waiting for authorization problem and it was because i was trying to add msn contacts through ichat. when i tried adding the same contacts through psi it worked.

i went to General - Add contact
under service at the top i chose my msn transport
i typed in the hotmail of my contact and chose get jabber ID and it automatically transformed the address into the weird jabber one.
finally i just hit add and it worked

hope this helps

Hi Becky...
I got the same as "anonymous" regarding 'waiting for authorisation'...
what is strange is that everyone on my list (gmail) is offline, but signing into msn at the same time i see at least 5 contacts online...
is there a step to ratify this? and how does one authorise?
with thanks

Hey Becky

I've followed your advice up until step 3 where I had to type jabber.freenet.de - a lst of transports appeared but MSN, Yahooo and AIM were not among them.
Have I done something wrong?
Were do I go or what do I do next?

Thanks

Hi Becky,

I don't know if anyone else has this problem, or if it's something that's supposed to be really simple and I'm completely missing it but after following all the steps, others see me signed in from my hotmail account when I'm really signed in from my gmail account. Is this because I transported all my msn contacts? Is there any way to look like I'm signed in from my gmail account?

Hi, Becky.

My happinesse turned into frustration. Some of my MSN contacts are "Waiting for Authorization", and I can't fix it. :-(

Could you help me with that?

Clarissa.

2008-03-01T20:34:00.000Z

any idea about how secure this is? i just tried jabber.freenet.de from here in the U.S. and the only transport is IRC. although, foxybanana.com advertises all of them.

i was about to Register when it dawned on me ... i have no idea who is operating this Tranport and whether or not my account information is secured!

NEVER MIND! i don't need iChat integration *that* badly, thank you very much!

you can try to follow this other method, a lot simpler too. http://blog.toonetown.com/2007/12/10-steps-to-multi-protocol-ichat.html it uses a different program to PSI.

2007-12-04T06:56:00.000Z

i couldn't find a jabber server that has yahoo transport working. I have tried the one listed in the above article, which is jabber.freenet.de , but even that says not able to connect. Any suggestions. I was able to add the MSN account though, is it possible that it might get disconnected later and i will have to choose MSN transport from some other jabber server. Please help. Thank you.

Becky,

Thank you for this! I have been trying to get all of my IM clients in one place and this was the answer!

2007-11-25T11:08:00.000Z

It sounds to me that you're checking for services on gmail, which doesn't provide the services directly. Are you following step 3, which says to type "jabber.freenet.de" In the address field of the service discovery box?

2007-11-25T11:01:00.000Z

I'm trying to use the service discovery function of Psi, but it just tells me that "There was an error getting agents for gmail.com.
Reason: Feature not implemented.
The feature requested is not implemented by the recipient or server and therefore cannot be processed." So what's the problem here? Thanks for help.

Yes, but can you just press one button and the thing goes? That's my beef with most gadgets and gizmos that have emerged in recent years. Sure, they have applications and functions coming out of their arses but just to get the damn things to go in the first place is a headache.

2007-11-20T00:13:00.000Z

But seriously, YIM and MSN already interconnect for chat although file transfer doesn't work between them. There have been various programs around that offer more interconnectivity but I have yet to find someone I need to chat with who doesn't have one of those two.
As for using the phone well I have one other problem in addition to the ones Stephanie listed - I just don't sound like a Nicky! Im IM chat I can be as girly as I like without it causing cognitive dissonance (whooh two big words)
Funnily enough when I am out as Nicky I don't find myself conscious of it but I do only go to TV friendly places.

It's funny, too, that they cut out the functional o and u but retain the unpronounced l! And spell out telephone in full!!

Chat vs telephone? I use IM mostly to chat for an hour every day with someone in San Francisco. How much would that cost me on the telephone? I dread to think. How much does it cost me on IM? Nothing.

And that's not to mention on and off chats - and privacy - and swapping photos and other files. Oh yes, the telephone is much better.
