"Not Authorized" generally means "wrong password". You'll either need to
update your password in pidgin, create an app password, or switch to the
Hangouts plugin which uses oauth.

There is no such thing as a Pidgin account.  You will have an instant 
messaging account with some service provider, and you need to make sure 
that you are providing the right credentials for that account.

You should contact that service provider regarding the credentials.

We will need to know who they are, or see the contents of your debug 
window, even to suggest typical problems associated with that provider.

You need to set up an account in Pidgin using XMPP. In the account tab
of the Account properties you enter your username as shown in your from
address to this list, and the domain as gmail.com, then you can enter
your password and a Resource string describing what you want (I use
'Home' for instance, but anything will do).

On the advanced tab I have connect port as 5222 and connect server as
talk.google.com which I believe is all that is necessary.

Try that and ask again if it doesn't work for you.

Programmer In Training spake unto us the following wisdom:
 Go into your modify account tab and deselect SSL Login for all
 affected accounts.

The accepted soluton is to uncheck clientLogin, not SSL Login.  Please
pay attention to all of the other emails on the topic when forming
your reply.

It's not clear that either solution is more correct than the other,
but at least if we give everyone the same advice we can give them the
same advice to fix it later when this is resolved.

I was just going by the solution that I came to on my own. While the
accepted solution by the majority might be to uncheck clientLogin, I
don't feel proper in suggesting something that I didn't try.

 It's not clear that either solution is more correct than the other,
 but at least if we give everyone the same advice we can give them the

Agreed. I was unaware that a consensus had been reached, though. I've
not been able to reply (or even check) my email for almost two weeks
before about two days ago. When I downloaded all the mail that had
collected in my account, I just marked all as read and jumped in at the
next question that I had a solution for. My apologies for not being on
board with the rest of the group.

 Hi, please help me out. I want to know if I want to change my font color and

 and i want to have a multi color text like we have in yahoo, combination of
 different colors. Please help me in getting the same on pidgin. Also, please
 guide me as to how shall I join a chatroom?  if the link is:


 http://www.meebo.com/room/dhammalmastichatroom/

 how shall I join it? what url should I type and where?

Hi,

Meebo rooms run on (mostly) standard Jabber conference servers.  The
room name is of course dhammalmastichatroom  The server name isn't
really advertised anywhere, but you can see it in a few places in the
Meebo UI if you poke around.  In this case this room is on
conference.gc1.meebo.org.  You can join the room in Pidgin by signing
into an XMPP account (you can use your Meebo username as the username
and meebo.org as the server), then Buddies-Join a Chat and enter
that room name and server.

I don't think you understand. Pidgin support is done via a mailing

combination of the developers and users who help out.

If you want help with your original problem then that's what happens,

We don't have any control over your accounts, Pidgin is just a client.
 You will have to follow the instructions on the website of the
relevant account's protocol (e.g. AIM,MSN, etc.) to make changes like
this to your account.

 Victoria, it's no secret that IM contacts are kept on the server, so
 just grab Pidgin from their page http://www.pidgin.im/download/ then
 install it, use your login and password and you should be good to go.
   
That's what I suggested. But as the OP hasn't responded, we may never know.
