Do they hate Canadians or something?

I can't submit any bugs (And I found like 3... Other people probably submitted them already :( ) because the "beta" didn't start yet.

The weird part is that I got an email with the download, and two invitations already! (I ALREADY USED THEM)

:|

Same problem. I sent them an email and they just responded that they sent it on some other department...

If anyone still has an invite to spare I promise to send someone a Windows Live Mail Beta invite as soon as they become available to me. I can't wait to test Live Messenger, I got a little taste about a month ago and I loved it. Anyway, I would really appreciate an invite, and as I said I will send you a Mail Beta invite when they are available for me.

Oh jeesh, MS emailed me telling me that i was accepted to Mail beta but unfortunately I used gmail and now I have to ask for the invite using a hotmail account...I'm not sure how they'll be able to know that I'm me....

And this is very good marketing strategy that MS learnt from google lol. This is very much like the Gmail craze, cept theres more products being thrown around.

I have to agree with you there :yes: MS made a very good move with the whole "live" thing. I don't know how the average user will like it but it's definitely creating a stir in the geek community :p

And I've never realised how many people have been invited untill just now when I've actually looked through the topics here on Neowin...I suppose it's because this is a geek community but it's still amazing that MS is actually allowing so many people access...

i think theres still a way to get the code for the activation link...ive heard its in the header of the email, thats if you break down the email in to all text and look at the links just try and find a link that has acception or accept i cant remember =S

You will have to try signing up with your hotmail account. Although it does beg the question, why did you try signing up for mail beta with your gmail account.... Mail beta is the next iteration of hotmail, so it would never let you use your gmail...

Well... I signed up with my gmail accout because I use my gmail for my .NET PASSPORT on Messenger. But I forwarded it to my hotmail and it worked so it won't let me use my gmail for the messenger on BETA and I don't want to reinstall the other version cause I like WLM so I will have to stick with my hotmail until it's final I guess :(.

No, it doesn't. It means you can send a message to an offline contact and they will receive it when they sign on.

Serious? I was under the impression from all of the marketing on the blog that it only was for sending messages to contacts while you were offline... so what do they call that? If they call both of them offline messaging... so help me god... :rofl:

ok i've found this on Live Messenger help page..

The Windows Live Messenger beta was released on December 14, 2005 to a limited group of beta users in the US, UK, Japan, Australia, Canada, China, France, Germany, Brazil, Korea, Netherlands, and Spain markets. Access to this version is limited and is controlled through invitations that are sent to a limited number of users. Participants in the beta will also be able to send a limited number of invitations to join the beta to friends and family members. People that accept an invitation will be able to install Messenger beta and try out the same features as the person that sent them the invitation

to guys who keyed in the invitation code on MS Connect with country code other than those countries

will have to wait longer, or perhaps might only have a chance when it's only been finalised :unsure:

..

and to those who have applied using of the countries' code but not being chosen yet..

sorry to say, u have no luck this time.. have to continue waiting or just wait for the final .. :cool:

uh, what MS connect?

its a super secret, uber classified temple where nerds gather to worship microsoft.

actually no, its "the new product development collaboration site at Microsoft."

In other words, its the place where testers get to beta test new products, and leave feedback, and stuff like that.

    • expected when they force you by having to use TPM and secure boot for anti cheat crap, and lazy developers only test on windows 11.
    • The fact I need to use "Show more" like 99% of the time is so annoying. Or why I have 7-zip under 3 submenus when it could be in top. And Microslop keeps saying how they'll improve Start and I've not seen ANY improvement yet. In MONTHS. WTF?! I'll believe any of it when they actually deliver anything.
    • LosslessCut 3.69 by Razvan Serea LosslessCut aims to be the ultimate cross platform FFmpeg GUI for extremely fast and lossless operations on video, audio, subtitle and other related media files. The main feature is lossless trimming and cutting of video and audio files, which is great for saving space by rough-cutting your large video files taken from a video camera, GoPro, drone, etc. It lets you quickly extract the good parts from your videos and discard many gigabytes of data without doing a slow re-encode and thereby losing quality. Or you can add a music or subtitle track to your video without needing to encode. Everything is extremely fast because it does an almost direct data copy, fueled by the awesome FFmpeg which does all the grunt work. Features Lossless cutting of most video and audio formats Losslessly cut out parts of video/audio (for cutting away commercials etc.) Losslessly rearrange the order of video/audio segments Lossless merge/concatenation of arbitrary files (with identical codecs parameters, e.g. from the same camera) Lossless stream editing: Combine arbitrary tracks from multiple files (ex. add music or subtitle track to a video file) Losslessly extract all tracks from a file (extract video, audio, subtitle, attachments and other tracks from one file into separate files) Batch view for fast multi-file workflow Remux into any compatible output format Take full-resolution snapshots from videos in JPEG/PNG format Manual input of cutpoint times Apply a per-file timecode offset (and auto load timecode from file) Change rotation/orientation metadata in videos View technical data about all streams Timeline zoom and frame/keyframe jumping for accurate cutting around keyframes Saves per project cut segments to project file View FFmpeg last command log so you can modify and re-run recent commands on the command line Undo/redo Give labels to cut segments View segment details, export/import cut segments as CSV Import segments from: MP4/MKV chapters, Text file, YouTube, CSV, CUE, XML (DaVinci, Final Cut Pro) Video thumbnails and audio waveform Edit file metadata and per-stream metadata Edit per-stream disposition Cut with chapter marks Annotate segments with tags View subtitles Example lossless use cases Cut out commercials from a recorded TV show (and re-format from TS to MP4) Remove audio tracks from a file Extract music track from a video and cut it to your needs Add music to a video (or replace existing audio track) Combine audio and video tracks from separate recordings Include an external subtitle into a video Quickly change a H264/H265 MKV video to MOV or MP4 for playback on iPhone Import a list of cut times from other tool as a EDL (edit decision list, CSV) and run these cuts with LosslessCut Export a list of cut times as a CSV EDL and process these in another tool Quickly cut a file by its MP4/MKV chapters Quickly cut a YouTube video by its chapters (or music times from a comment) Change the language of a file's audio/subtitle tracks Attach cover art to videos Change author, title, GPS position, recording time of a video Fix rotation of a video that has the wrong orientation flag set Great for rotating phone videos that come out the wrong way without actually re-encoding the video.
