SPECIALIST125 Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 I setup my yahoo, msn, google talk and aol account in Kopete. When I put my password in it keeps tellling me that my password is wrong, but it is not and they all say the same thing so nothing will connect. I am using Mandriva-move and the Kopete version is 0.8.0 (Using KDE 3.2 BRANCH >= 20040204). How can I fix this I have only been using linux for about 2 days now so I'm learning my way around please provide as much details as possible.

scarecrow Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 Is it a laptop computer? Are you sure you use the correct keyboard layout, and caps lock/ num lock isn't activated when you type your password? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverSurfer60 Posted January 29, 2006 Report Share Posted January 29, 2006 Hello there, you need to upgrade kopete to a more recent version. I am running 0.10.3. Prior versions do not have the correct protocol or something as these providers keep changing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPECIALIST125 Posted January 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 No it is not a lab top but I had to turn that acpi off (It has a hibernation button) . Yes I am sure that I typed the password and screen names corretly. I will try to upgrade to a updated verison and see if that works. Will I have to uninstall the current verison or will it overwrite?

SilverSurfer60 Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 Will I have to uninstall the current verison or will it overwrite? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No need to uninstall, but you can if you want. It will work either way. I'm pretty sure an upgrade will cure the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
