ichat aim won't let me login, ever
I have tried since I got this computer to set up an ichat aim account that will work, however, no matter what I try it says that I have entered the wrong password. I have deleted the account and removed the password from the keychain numerous times and it still says I have the wrong password. It shows a twelve digit password in the Accounts screen in ichat. I have never had a password that long. Can someone please help me fix this annoyance. I need to get this set up for work purposes.

Thanks

Try Adium, it's better than iChat. You can use more protocols like msn, yim, myspaceim, googletalk, icq, etc.

Adium does not play well with others, i. e. it does not work well with ichat. I need to work with ichat no matter how anyone likes or dislikes it as that is what the company I vend to uses.

well what features are you looking to use? I've had chats with people using iChat while I was using Adium before. But they were just basic chats.

I never tried it with webcam or voice or any of those "extra" features before, so I can't say for sure weather or not they work.
