can you also set me up? I already have my user name and password from my msn
messenger account.

I can set something up for you in 2 minutes. Would that be fast

Hey all, Josh, thanks very much for your reply yesterday. I certainly
understand about being busy on the holidays. So no worries. That was
exactly why I wrote the list, I'm really needing to have something up
and running ASAP as I'm leaving in less than a week and will be gone
until Christmas.
Am juggling crazy scheduling with shoots / family / friends so need a
quick way to be in touch all the time, as I'll have my lil Mac with me
everywhere I go. <smile> :) My web access will be varied / sporadic
so I'll need to set something up in the next couple of days if I can.
So here are my questions. First off, can someone else give me a very
simple quick lil run down on what is happening to allow msn access
with IChat? How I understand it is that IChat is connecting to a
jabber account, and then from there, somehow the jabber account is
connecting to an msn server?...
If this is the case, all I'll need is a very brief list of steps or
software and I'll take care of the rest. As far as access, I'm not
concerned with that right now. I'll have sighted assistance for the
next couple of days so that won't be an issue. I just need to get
something up and running where I can access msn on the road, as I need
to do some crazy scheduling on the fly, and the quickest way will be
with msn. I'd rather not need to do the windows thing to make up for
the lack of access, and would much rather see about having this work
on the Mac side of things if I can...
I'd rather not install a Jabber server on my Macbook unless that is
the only way that this can work. I'd rather do the simplest thing I
can right now and just get it going, if that's possible.
The simpler the better right now, however, I'll do what I need to.
And, am not opposed to doing the server thing later in any case...
god what a horrible sentence! lol! Sorry for the haphazard nature of
this note! lol!
Anyway, thanks to all for reading, and for any help / suggestions.
You all rock! and I wish you a lovely holiday season!!!...
Smiles,
Cara :)
