ever since i got this new imac, my ichat won't stay connected for more than 10 minutes.
i've googled to my heart's content and no one seems to have an answer.
anyone else experience this? any solutions?
i've tried changing the port...changing my router settings... fucking annoying.

maybe you have your account opened on two computers at the same time, which can knock the other account offline.
- i don't though... and it always warns you when you do.doesnotexist
- you might not have "allow multiple logins for this account" enabledomg
- it prompts you for thatdoesnotexist

o to ~/Library/Preferences and move these files to the Trash.
com.apple.iChat.plist
com.apple.iChat.Jabber.plist
Restart your Mac and see if that helps.

i have a solution for you.
replace you ichat with >> http://adium.im/
you can even incl. your gmail account. it's like 2 in 1.

may have worked...
good idea, akrok. i was trying to avoid that for some reason, but i think this is better than ichat.
