Adium CONFIG help

adium prefs

sas,

i used to have the same problems. in the office, i could connect via ym but not adium.

so i asked our i.t. to check our firewall and proxy settings. turned out that was the problem. binigyan ako ng access so now i use either.

anyway, if it's any help, i don't use proxies in adium and the messenger login server is scs.msg.yahoo.com port 5050.

hth.

 

Try doing SSH and use port 25

 

Try configuring Adium to connect using port 80 instead of the YM port (5050?).

Strange. Wait - you're behind a proxy? Then you'll have to configure the proxy settings for that account as well (I can't help you with a screenshot on this one since I don't use a proxy [but we do have a firewall that restricts port 5050]).

 

do you think i can use port 80? im also restricted to access port 5050....

but i can use skype... does ym and skype use the same prefs...
:uh-oh:

 

Our other officemates are behind the firewall and all they do is set YM to use port 80 and it works. Why don't you give it a try?

 

Had the same prob before with YM connecting via proxy... it was solved by logging in invisible mode.. try it. Just make sure all proxy settings are correct.

Never tried Adium via proxy though.. Good Luck!! :angel:

 

try ichat in yahoo. works great!

 

yup.... now im having the same problem. showing as "gain error" bla...bla...bla... i dont normal use adium on my mac when i chat (normally use my pc for that) but when i tried opening adium my other accts like msn, icq where able to connect but my yahoo acct didnt. i didnt change anything on the yahoo acct (last time i used it 2 weeks ago it was still working?).

tried all the suggestions here but to no avail. my set up at home is using APE. again i didnt change anything but now its not working. tried using my yahoo messenger and it works to but not if i use it through adium. any other solutions you can suggest?
