Recently experiencing problems with getting photos to display properly in Messenger. When I get an IM and I click on “photos” to add one, it displays on the main window but shows that the person at the other end cannot see it. Until recent it worked fine and ok, it’s only just started doing this. Anyone know whats wrong and how to fix?
I’m using YM version 8 but have un-installed it and installed 9 and also tried 11 but neither were any better…..in fact 11 is useless with less user rooms. Now put version 8 back in as a complete re-install but occasionally still getting the same problem.

I’m staggered!:confused:
January 6, 2012 at 11:29 pm #177489Jeff HesterKeymasterBulletguy, can you fill in a few details?
For example, what operating system are you running? Did it work previously and recently stop working? What changed on your system since then?
You mention that you “…still have the problem occasionally…” Do you have the same problem with everyone, or is it only with a specific user (might be on their end)?
January 14, 2012 at 6:25 am #177490DermotParticipantI suppose you’re using XP?
Sounds like a IE control issues and i know XP only supports up to ie 8?
Yahoo messenger uses the IE control for it’s chat and IM screens.
Did you do a full uninstall of each version before putting on another?

Running XP Pro using Google Chrome as main browser.
YM photoshare worked perfectly fine up till late December 2011. Since then i’ve noticed a number of times when i’ve put a couple of photos on, the third won’t display at their end. Sometimes none will display. But if I add the person…..all of a sudden they can view. I don’t like adding people just for the sake of showing a photograph.

Yes…..XP is brilliant. Says a lot for it when Vista came out, Dell could only shift pc’s to the USA with XP as the OS….they flatly refused to accept Vista…..and Dell duly obliged. As for 7, my mate spent weeks faffing around with that till he got used to it! Each to their own as the saying goes, but having seen 7 I can’t see it’s light years improvement over XP.
Anyway, to answer your question, yes I fully uninstalled before each reinstall of a different version of YM (of which btw I found 11 is total rubbish).
