Is MSN 7.0 still a beta version? If it is then Microsoft will still be tweaking it and the final version will be out soon.

Uh no you can only download version 7.0

Treacle

I hate the way 6 works but then they make you get rid of it. I wanted to keep 6 too. I only use it for chatting to people so I don't need any "extras".

Thanks for that will try it later

Treacle
13-06-2005, 15:13
I'm surprised you don't have it already. It's standard nowadays.

Luna
13-06-2005, 15:18
I tried downloading pack one but it wouldn't let me

Treacle
13-06-2005, 15:26
Try using "Windows Update" :)

Luna

13-06-2005, 16:16
Arrghh, my msn not been working for about a week now, it just says. "sorry, we are unable to sign you into messenger at this time, please try again later" I've clicked on help and made sure that every things set ok. Even interenet explorer settings are fine....i can't think whats wrong!!!

Treacle
13-06-2005, 16:30
Maybe it's your firewall?

Behemoth
13-06-2005, 16:31
well I dont know what version of IE i've got cause i'm not at home!! Click on 'Help' at the top and then on 'About Internet Explorer'

.:Kitz:.
13-06-2005, 16:32
Maybe it's your firewall?Maybe, but it worked before when i still had firewall :searchme:

Treacle
13-06-2005, 16:36
Maybe you changed a firewall setting accidentally or it changed one itself?

There was an option on the website to download 5.0 but when you try to sign into that it tells you it's too old and you need to update... :angry:

Jade
13-06-2005, 21:31
well the new e-mail address thing didnt work

Not sure if its got anything to do with the anti-spy wear my boyf made me download??

Luna
13-06-2005, 21:32
Which one was it?

I'm wondering if it's because i have firefox that it's not recognising my IE

Jade
13-06-2005, 21:34
Microsoft anti spy wear

Luna
13-06-2005, 21:38
that shouldn't do anything.

Well i've got it working i finally got to download IE6 service pack one that let me download v7 msn but it wont let me sign in with my old address only the new one i just set up. I think it could have been the firefox blocking it

Treacle
13-06-2005, 22:42
Just use "Windows Messenger" :)

Jade
13-06-2005, 22:43
Windows messengeris dull!!

Treacle
13-06-2005, 22:53
Oh who cares about extras?

Jade
13-06-2005, 22:55
It keeps bombing me out after about 10mins as well, not very good for the computer when I start smashing it up!!

Treacle
14-06-2005, 00:00

MSN is always co operative with me. Always works no problems whatsoever. We were meant to be :P

Treacle
14-06-2005, 12:39
Me too, the only time I have any problems is when the whole network is down.

Luna
14-06-2005, 17:37
Well mines working fine now - did your get yours working jude?

Jade
14-06-2005, 21:50
Nope its still not and my computers started going at snails pace, really dont know what the matter is!!

Treacle
15-06-2005, 02:20
Just stick to Windows Messenger, it must be booting you off for a reason. Try sending an e-mail to their "customer support" :)

My MSN works - but I can't view my contacts message history, the page appears to be blank. And when I try to download an earlier version it makes me install the more up to date one. Which is daft because they're still available to download. :wall:

Treacle
19-06-2005, 00:35
It saves all my convos. I have to delete them. Even with the option turned off it still does it.

It must be your computer or firewall settings.

Treacle

have you tried setting up a new hotmail account and then downloading msn7?

Tamzi
01-07-2005, 08:59
I've tried that. When i try making a new account it wont let me and comes up with an error page. Also I have tried re downloading messenger and no joy. i also cant use the web one. I cant submit a help thing as well to MSN as the error page comes up!

Got me stumped.

The first time i had trouble with it i got Firefox and that sorted it but the next time i had to take firefox off and then create a whole new account. I've had that for a while now but it still wont let me into my old one.
