eilegz Share Posted December 14, 2005 well i downloaded the beta ok im wondering if i can have msn 7,5 and wlm installed both because i would test wlm but other people that use this pc need to access their msn messenger so it wlm replace it they cant use msn anymore. that would be a big problem Link to post Share on other sites
webeagle12 Share Posted December 14, 2005 is there any way to close the tab window yup Options >Security and Check "This is Shared Computer" :D Link to post Share on other sites
lardiop Veteran Share Posted December 14, 2005 Same for me, so i guess we all speak French here, according to Microsoft. I have gotten the invitation but i have yet to receive any download information at all, anyone else in this boat? lmao, exact same deal here guys. My Live portal after login is entirely in French. I've tried the .365 build with my passport and I receive the 'not authorized' error message. My guess would be a wider release mid-tomorrow morning Seattle time. Looks like that button you get in the email authorizes your passport to use the v.13 protocol and login with .365 Link to post Share on other sites
jwjw1 Share Posted December 14, 2005 well i downloaded the beta ok im wondering if i can have msn 7,5 and wlm installed both because i would test wlm but other people that use this pc need to access their msn messenger so it wlm replace it they cant use msn anymore. that would be a big problem Then its gonna be a big problem...because beta 8.0.0365 will overwrite 7.5...however if the others logon with a different username and password....they should be alright....but its your call.

Looks like that button you get in the email authorizes your passport to use the v.13 protocol and login with .365 I am also from Canada. Here is an announcement from microsoft.beta.messenger.announcements: Canadian beta testers! We have a bug in ideas.live.com that will make it so all you will see is French text when you go to the site. We are fixing the bug right now and hope to have ready sometime tomorrow. In the meantime we are going to hold off sending you the download/authorization link. I know this will disapoint all of you who are following the newsgroups and wouldn't mind wading your way through the French text. But there are hundreds of you who are not on the newsgroups yet who will be suprised by this poor experience. Thanks for your patience! Link to post Share on other sites
John Veteran Share Posted December 14, 2005 I don't know why you guys are having so many problems... :p Does anyone else find this new version UGLY??? :wacko: I'm sorry; I ususally like the new versions of MSN Messenger.
