Chat

[bugman]

I seem to be having no luck getting into the faol chat room. I can click chat on the home page or the bb and it acts like its gonna work then a box pops up saying connection failed. I click ok then it does it again & again. It does not let me in at all. Am i doing something wrong here ? Does anyone else have the same problem ?

Nope. I was on the Chat site last night, no prtoblems getting logged in. I suspect if you were not logged in to the main FAOL site there would be a problem if the Chat site thought you were a guest.

Had that problem Saturday nite, and I thank Rainbowchaser for sticking with me ... for almost3 hours ... to work out why I couldn't get in. Check your security settings, and if you have pop ups blocked, un block them, then try again to enter through the bottom of the chat listing on the BB page. It worked for me, it may work for you ... worth a try!

Still aint working, i get the same popup Connection failed. Popup blocker is disabled.

Is your flash player up to date? Also check the settings on your flash player. At one time I had the privacy and security settings on mine so high that it was rendered useless.

[bugman]

how do you change flash settings ?

[rainbowchaser]

If you have windows, go to your control panel and click on flash player. If you are using a Mac, I have no idea.

[bugman]

using windows... click flash player and then ?

[rainbowchaser]

That is not the problem. I just messed my settings up and I can still get into chat. I'm out of ideas. I'll post if anything else occurs to me.
