I am finding that sometimes I type a message to a contact, it doesn’t “bounce” but she just doesn’t see it at her end. Is this a known problem and is there anything I can do about it?
Thanks

I’m not able to help you on this one, but am sure one of our techie guys will have an opinion. And also wanted to say, welcome back – and hope we can get this thing solved for you. That’s got to be so frustrating! 😡 Keep checking back . . . and if you find something that works for you in the meantime, please let us know. That’s one of the best ways to learn!

It just went away before, I hope it is not going to recur. There is no chance of getting any help from msn. If I try, all I get is irrelevant suggestions from what appears to be a bot.

If it’s just happening with one of your contacts, I doubt very much that it’s a problem at your end. More likely a hiccup with the WLM servers relaying stuff between you and your friend in Canada. Have a look at the post here.
Nothing much you can do at your end, I’m afraid. Keeping my fingers crossed for you…:) Have a good day.

AlanI had that happen to me before try to sign out and back on or reinstall it
March 29, 2007 at 4:17 am #159490Doris KenneyParticipantI read on the WLM discussion pages that if UPNP is not enabled on BOTH yours and your friends machine – the program can be “unreliable”. I had issues with disappearing text for a while. I made sure UPNP was enabled and also all pop-up blockers (including all toolbars like Google or Yahoo) were disabled. That seemed to fix my problem. That said – if your friend does not have it enabled as well the problem could indeed be stemming from her end. Good luck!
