Pidgin problems.
Hello, Every time I go to start Pidgin, I immediately get a Pidgin has stopped working alert. I've rebooted a few times and still no luck. Last night I downloaded the latest version of Pidgin, hoping it would correct it... no help. I've used Pidgin on this computer for nearly a year without any problems and haven't made any major changes lately that would cause a conflict. How can I fix this without uninstalling and redownloading Pidgin again? I don't want to lose my settings, chat logs, etc. Thanks, I appreciate your help. PS: I can't find where on my computer the chat logs are stored. Since I can't load/run Pidgin, I can't locate them through it. Where are they stored on the computer? Thanks again. _ Hotmail: Trusted email with powerful SPAM protection. http://clk.atdmt.com/GBL/go/210850553/direct/01/___ Support@pidgin.im mailing list Want to unsubscribe?

Preconfigured Install
Has anyone automated the install so that it is already configured to your jabber server? The user only needs to open up the Pidgin icon and login. This way I don't have to visit each and every user. I already have an install script ready to go, but would love to get a way to preconfigure as well.

Re: Preconfigured Install
How are these people knowing to go to the Pidgin website and download and run the installer? Make a script to copy over accounts.xml from a location on the server to the users .purple directory would be my guess unless someone knows another way.

Lack of notification when a contact signs off
I find it incredibly frustrating that when I have been talking to someone over AIM in pidgin, and that person signs off (expectedly or otherwise), I receive no notification whatsoever. Nothing appears in the person's chat window, and worse, I can still send IMs freely just as if the person were still online. Why on earth is this what pidgin does? I have used other chat clients and all of them have provided me with notifications about changes to contacts' status. ___ Support@pidgin.im mailing list Want to unsubscribe?

Re: Lack of notification when a contact signs off
Tools, Plugins, enable the Buddy State Notification, and perhaps uncheck Offline Message Emulation (this should then tell you the user is offline if you try to send a message anyway).

RE: Pidgin problems.
Pidgin has stopped working. Windows is searching for a solution to the problem... I attached the screen caps of what it tells me. Also, I don't have a Documents and Settings folder, just Documents and they're not in there. Thanks...

You may need to configure it to enable (on|off)line notifications; I don't remember what its default is. and perhaps uncheck Offline Message Emulation (this should then tell you the user is offline if you try to send a message anyway). That won't have an effect for AIM, for which Pidgin has supported offline messages since 2.4.0 (two years ago). That your chat partner cannot see them speaks to either a server issue or a bug in the remote client (retrieval was broken in Pidgin 2.6.3, but fixed in 2.6.4, for instance).

RE: Pidgin problems.
Thanks for trying to help. I even uninstalled/downloaded it again and it still wouldn't work... until I restored the system to the 9th: before updates were installed for both Windows and AVS.
