Looks like this bug affects both existing accounts and the creation of new ones. After upgrading from 12.10 to 13.04, the only client working for me was Google. My other existing accounts for AIM, Yahoo and ICQ did not appear to be working. I decided to remove my AIM account and re-add it. Like the others above, the login details screen is blank.
Wish I hadn't upgraded my work computer now. I use IM extensively to keep in touch with co-workers and clients. I've been in the dark since upgrading. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1159411 Title: Some online accounts cannot be added Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: ******************** HOW TO REPRODUCE ******************** 1.
