Pidgin with OTR Probs

Submitted by yogi on March 30, 2009 - 9:16am

I installed pidgin and followed step by step this:
https://portableapps.com/support/pidgin_portable#otr
so I made the entry in the editor but the otr option does not appear in the tool-area of pidgin.
How can I do that?
I installed Pidgin with OTR on the pc, no problems, but the portapps-version fpr the stick does not work. Thx for helping, friends.

Miranda: "ICQ Warning" " ...version is getting old."

Submitted by werenomads on March 18, 2009 - 12:19pm

Within the last 2 weeks, I started receiving an error message when launching Miranda Portable 0.7.17.

ICQ Warning - The server sent a warning, this version is getting old. Try to look for a new one.

It seems to be an ICQ issue, not a Miranda issue. Is there an update to the ICQ protocol, or if none is necessary, can some internal date be changed so as to stop ICQ from giving this seemingly unnecessary warning?

Thanks

Pidgin: Not all emotes showing

Submitted by anagram on March 18, 2009 - 8:12am

Hello,

I've noticed that I can't use all the emotes set in Pidgin.
I use the latest version (2.5.5) with several accounts (msn, yahoo, gmail).

In conversations, I have the emotes window which contains 10 icons, then the rest of the small window is empty.

In the theme file, I have the list of all the emotes, which are present in the folder, but when I type the shortcut, they don't show.

Any idea why?

Copying local Pidgin settings to Pidgin Portable?

In the instructions for copying local Pidgin settings to Pidgin Portable it says:

"Your local Pidgin settings are usually installed in C:\Documents and Settings\[user]\Application Data\.Purple\. Just copy that .Purple directory to the PidginPortable\Data\settings directory and you're all set."

However, there is no such directory in Pidgin Portable. The Data folder is empty. There is a file called settings in App\DefaultData\settings, though. How do I proceed?
