My brother, sister, and I all use the same trillian program for our message needs. We are having problems though. Our contact lists are all being added together. How do we keep it from combining our lists and keep them seperate?
Since it’s already happened, there isn’t much you can do about it now unless you get each contact to remove each of the “wrong” people from their lists and you do the same.
The reason that this happened is because Trillian doesn’t have the ability (yet) to keep accounts seperate. For example, contacts for MSN account ScreenName1 and contacts for MSN account ScreenName2 would be merged in Trillian because Trillian doesn’t see them as individual.
When a second account is added, a popup box warns the user that the contact lists will be merged because Trillian doesn’t recognize per-account contact lists.
The way to avoid this is to use Trillian profiles. Set one up for each user or each account. Make none of them autologon and point them to different folders on the hard drive for profile storage. If it’s multiple accounts for one person, make multiple profiles and run multiple instances of Trillian, each logged in to a different profile.
khawkins, that was copied directly from this Trillian forum post. Unless you got permission from Cerulean Studios (which I doubt), you shouldn’t do that. Ok??
Besides, this topic was already discussed, and answered by one of the Trillian developers very recently in our own forums.
