I'm disconnected from Windows Live Messanger

Question of Neil Clark

I selected the option Connect automatically in Windows Live Messenger when I turn my computer. Whenever I have shut down my computer, I am disconnected from Windows Live Messanger and must manually connect at the beginning of my next session.

Hi Neil,

This error occurs usually when a record has been changed when an update has been performed on your computer. To resolve this issue, follow these steps:


Important:
before you edit the registry, make sure to save, to understand how to restore the registry if a problem occurs.

Warning: If you use the correct registry editor, you may cause serious problems may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft does not guarantee that you can solve problems that result from the use of the Publisher of the registry incorrectly. Use the registry edit at your own risk.


BACKUP REGISTRY KEYS:

1. click on Start, click on run

2. type regedit and click Ok

3. in the registry editor window, click desktop on the left side to make sure that you backup all the registry keys.

4. click on file and click on export

5. save the file on your desktop or in your desired location. It will have the default extension (* .reg) to back up the registry.

6. If you want to restore a file to the registry, in the Registry Editor window, click file and click Import

7. navigate to the location and find the name of the file with the .reg extension and click Open.

Note: you will be prompted that importation has been properly registered in the register.


TROUBLESHOOTING STEPS:

1. open the registry editor by clicking on Start, then run. Type regedit and then click OK.

2 open the user Shell Folders folder. To do this, click on the + sign of each of the products listed below.

a. click on the [] sign + next to HKEY_CURRENT_USER

4. the value data, type the following entry, and then click OK: %USERPROFILE%\Application Data

5. close the Windows Registry Editor and restart your computer.

Thank you

Response from Neil Clark

Hi K - Ann,

Thank you for the above information.

I followed you instruction to back up the registry keys, but when I followed step number 7. Navigate to the location and look for the name of the file with the .reg extension and click Open, the message of answers that I received from the registry editor has been as follows: -.

Impossible to import C:\Documents and Settings\Compaq_Owner\My Documents\My Backup\Backup260910.reg of register: not all data was successfully written to the registry.  Some keys are open by the system or my other processes.

So I closed my computer and restarted. I then followed your instructions again (this time save the backup of the registry to a member in the same library, called "Backup260910bkup"

Yet once, when I followed the number of the step 7. Navigate to the location and look for the name of the file with the .reg extension and click Open, the message of answers that I received from the registry editor has been as follows: -.

Impossible to import C:\Documents and Settings\Compaq_Owner\My Documents\My Backup\Backup260910bkup.reg of register: not all data was successfully written to the registry.  Some keys are open by the system or my other processes.

Can you tell me what I need to do to work around this problem of backup of the registry?

I look forward to receiving your response.

Thank you

Neil Clark.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones UK - mail and Windows Live Messanger

    Hello

    My first post here, but I got my BB a while, just never got roud to juggle with it and try to get the apps I want. First and foremost I want to mail and Windows Live Messanger for IMs, addressing Phones4U where I got my contract, they said I need to buy their email Plan to access Emails 'push' (at the moment I don't have an option for setting up my own email addresses). Just to confirm that this is true, if yes it would probably be more easy for me to buy just the increased data plan and access e-mail through hotmail.com (I don't sent them that much).

    However, I use MSN a lot. I tried to download AppsStore, I tried going to www.blackberry.com/messenger, and I tried to download from my PC via my USB wire into the phone. Every time that he told me that I meet the system requirements. When I go to 'About' on my BB it says I have a BB 8900 smartphone v4.6.1.76 (Platform 4.2.0.62) and my status says I have 112 mb of available storage.

    Y at - it something I am doing wrong? Should I be on a payment plan to access the app store? In addition, with MSN it charges you? I have unlimited SMS with my payment plan, but I should also use internet data extended as well?

    See you soon,.

    Alex

    Well, I know not what you mean by 'web n 'walk', but if you have no data plan and browse internet strictly via WiFi, so I think that you actually fail condition 4. If I am correctly Recalling, AppWorld must flow through a data plan as well as the income of everyone in the data stream (developer, Distributor, carrier, RIM, etc) can all be properly credited for sale (Yes, I know that some are free - but it's a sale nonetheless).

  • BlackBerry Smartphones downloads on my BB and Windows live messanger

    When I download free articles from the BB App World is that all fall under my free internet usage unlimited for BB browser?

    When I use Windows Live Messanger etc on the BB made also this fall under my use of unlimited free internet for BB brower?

    Download anything from BlackBerry App World will consume BlackBerry data plan and is therefore using windows live messenger. Phone smart BlackBerry uses blackberry.net APN.

  • How to export my contacts from Windows Live Mail on XP

    I searched for this answer for the last 2 hours.  All the answers are for Vista & Windows 7.   How to export my Windows Live Mail addresses so that I can use in Thunderbird?  I'm moving to Thunderbird because quick view is off & on display unread messages.  They watch for a few days, then stop broadcasting.  Then repeat for a few days, then stop again.  This is happening for more than a month because there was an update of the first part of the last month.
    But back to my original question.  How to export my contacts from Windows Live Mail.  When I click on the file to export and then export, there is nothing highlighted.   So, how can I get my contacts?  Or is there another way to do otherwise than through WLM >

    Thank you

    This is happening for more than a month because there was an update of the first part of the last month.

    There has been no update for WLMail 2009 since April 2010. Update do you think has affected your quick view?

    How to export my contacts from Windows Live Mail.

    Open the contacts window by clicking the address book at the foot of the folders pane. On the file menu, click export , and then select comma separated (CSV) values. If you don't see the menu bar, press ALT.

    Note that the last statement on the help page (Export contacts) is wrong: by dragging the window contacts contacts on the desktop doesn't create any kind of file. In version 12 and 15, this produces a vCard (.vcf) file for each contact, but not in the version 14 (WLMail) 2009.

    Windows Live Mail has its own support at the Windows Live Solution Centerforums. Please address any other question you may have on one of the forums on the right side of this page. You are probably asked to give your version of WLMail and Windows so that the answer may be more accurate. In WLMail to find your version of the software, a press on ALT - H. If it doesn't show you the version and the build number, press on escape to two times, and then Alt - F B.
