I am having a connection error with my instant messaging accounts. What should I do?
If you're having an error message with your Instant Messaging accounts you've added to Tokbox, and you haven't changed your password or user name for them IM account(s), the following information would be helpful:
1. The error message you're getting.
2. The IM service Tokbox can't connect to (AOL AIM, Yahoo Messenger, MSN Messenger, GTalk).
3. The user name/ screen name of the IM service that you sign in with.
4. If you're working from a home or work computer. Corporate firewalls, for example, may be limiting your ability to access those contacts while at work.

Inappropriate?Hi Jamie,
I'm sorry you are having trouble connecting your IM accounts! I will pass this information along to one of our engineers to see what might be the cause.
I assume you are still seeing this issue? Have you attempted to remove each account, then re-add them?
Thanks,
Lauren -
Inappropriate?i keep getting
Unable to connect. Please try later. You might be behind a firewall.
when i try to sign in on msn but yahoo can sign in.

Inappropriate?I'm having the same problem

Inappropriate?Issa, Marylin & Erika,
Just to verify, none of you are working behind a firewall correct? Have you attempted to remove your MSN account and re-add it?
We'll have to do a bit of digging to see if MSN is having issues.
Best,
Lauren -
Inappropriate?yes i turn off my firewall to see if it was and it did the same thing.
it is not behind firewall. -
Inappropriate?i'm having the same problem. Does it matter if the msn account is a non-standard one? For instance not @msn.com or @live.com??
THanks

Inappropriate?no live, msn, and hotmail are all the same.
