I’m using pidgin 2.9.0 and winxp pro
I logged into wlm on one account and added the account i’m using on pidgin. request showed up and i accepted the request.. but the user never showed online through pidgin. through WLM I could see the pidgin user online. I was able to send messages through to the pidgin user but I didn’t receive them until i logged out and back in. I tried closing out both pidgin/wlm, signing off, back online with both. never showed myself online on the pidgin messenger.
I also had another person add me and I accepted. but they never saw me online.. and they actually disappeared from my list under the “offline users”
anyone else experience this with pidgin?
I’m not sure if this is the same thing exactly, but I’ve had users show up as offline on Pidgin AND YIM, but still be online on MSN, and no they aren’t invising me in this case because I’ve tried it with my own account. I’ll appear as signed off on YIM or Pidgin, when I’m still online on MSN, but I’ve had no troubles talking to the “offline” person on MSN. It’s really weird.
