I just sent my first message via MEEBO!

Typed it in and pressed go and it works!!!!!!

[marksman]

Thanks! It works now. There is a go button in the entry window that sends the message. Now if they can make a smaller interface.

[jstennis1591]

I can't get it to work......:(

Are you guys using some alternate URL? Mine won't let me click on anything, it just highlights it in grey

You are probably not quite hitting it right.

In the contact menu, I had to go a little below to get the blue line to come on there and it to open up the chat box.

how can i set this up?

[daveschroeder]

how can i set this up?

Go to meebo.com and log in. That's it.

[ichii]

when I sign on and click on the person's name I want to message it would crash to back to home :confused:

[iomar]

Go to meebo.com and log in. That's it.

So far it has not worked for me.. I was not able to log on to my Yahoo IM that is what I wanted to use. I was able to log on the MSN but my buddies were way on the right side of the screen could not see them. Unfortunately I didn't have any buddy to chat with so I am not sure how it might work.

[Nagooya]

How long does it take to log in? I'm trying to sign into my AIM account and it's taking a while!

[copland007]

sort of works for me, the meebo account creation is just sitting there saying 'please wait...' don't think that is iphone ready yet, but i can log into my aim and send msgs, thanx for the heads up!

[obeyz]

is anyone having a problem with logging in?
all i am getting on my iphone when i log in for AIM is this: signing in, please wait and it looks like it is logging in but nothing happens. what can it be?

thanks,

[alfonsog]

aim worked for me using meebo, but I hope Apple releases iChat...

[bdj21ya]

Well, I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, but so far I can't get my .mac AIM address to log in. Does it have to be an AOL address for meebo to accept it, or does any AIM account work?

[Moonlight]

Works great, makes me wonder why this is not a built in feature on the iPhone ????

[dangleheart]

When you are IMing over Edge, can someone check if you can receive voice calls?

[gamergod]

I was able to use this last night by hitting the "go" button on the iphones keyboard. It did have quite a lag logging in though.

Stupid question but does ichat support MSN like Meebo and Adium and such?

[AtariAge]

I've had Safari crash on me twice so far while logging in on my iPhone. Haven't even been able to send a single message with it yet. Looks promising, though. Would be nice if they made an iPhone specific version tailored to the iPhone's screen size. And also would be nice if Apple made Safari a bit more stable (I've had it crash numerous times on me in the two days since my phone was (finally) activated)..

Hey all - this is Seth from meebo. Fortunately, we were able to get our hands on an iPhone Friday evening and one of our folks spent the weekend working to get meebo functional on there. meebo now works, but the experience isn't where we'd like it to be. We're hoping for additional developer documentation to create a really great meebo experience on there. Thanks much! Seth

[obeyz]

i keep getting this message when trying to use meebo when logging into AIM.

"reconnect" Oops! Meebo detected a network interruption.

please check your network connection.

signing on, please wait

this is all i keep getting! maybe i'm doing something wrong, i've tried since last night and NOTHING works. how are you guys doing it so it works on your iphones?

thanks a lot!

[dkliman]

Works great, makes me wonder why this is not a built in feature on the iPhone ????

that's easy... at&t wants to charge $10 for 137K of file transfer (that's the $10 a month sms option)

seems the iphone was really designed by apple for the benefit of at&t, not users.

luckily sites like meebo exist.

and... it works on mine! :-D

hopefully the next update won't have something to disable meebo... you can see those greedy at&t execs now getting all steamed that they won't get their extra money for a few extra bytes of text transfer....

Whenever I try to click something, it all just highlights everything in gray. What do I do?

[Yankees 4 Life]

Go to meebo.com and log in. That's it.

hey thanks man, got it all set up

[Yankees 4 Life]

oh i forgot; i hope they add ichat to make this much easier and better on the battery life

[junebug1]

it works for me which is great cause i can finally have some sort of instant messenging but it does suck on battery life. please apple please give us ichat.

[uNext]

safari crashes when i try

[itsallinurhead]

Not working too well for me.

[Furgster]

this seems to hit or miss basically, so people are getting it and some are not which sucks

[gstylez]

I just log into AIM on Meebo.com with my .Mac account. Works Great!!! Didn't check on my battery life but I'm guessing it drains it.

[dr427]

So you log onto Meebo.com from your iphone? Then use the interface on their homepage?

[Furgster]

i was able to get this program to work on my server, havent tested on iPhone yet, but will shortly

[Briellz]

YES! Its working fine for me! :D

let us know if that works! thanks.

[psychofreak]

Hopefully there will be a lot of cool things like this when the iPhone hits the UK...

I think that when iPhoneLinux comes out, with S/NES emulation, games, VoIP and IM (all speculation), the iPhone will be awesome!

[Furgster]

let us know if that works! thanks.

i am having some problems with it displaying improperly, it doesnt scale it down at all so it is kind of hard to use. i didnt make this program, just modified it a little bit but if anyone else is able to fix it that would be great

[.vin.]

I can't even log into AIM. I get a round spinny thing that says logging in, but it never does. Anyone else having this same problem?

[iWizzard]

Ho does it work when you want to swith to another webpage?

can you have multiple wepages upp at the same time?

IM client seem to be a program I want installed on the device.

[kevinwiz]

wow it worked. i had a little trouble signing out but it worked after a while. also, how do you click someone on your friend list? it highlights the whole thing

[gaina]

Just released, you have to be using your iPhone to see it

Wow - why was this old news bumped?

[stevin]

Wow - why was this old news bumped?

I was thinking the exact same thing... thought I was going to see something about a native meebo app (which almost wouldn't make sense since they don't make a native app for anything)

Instead I had to relive the frustration of the first week after launch till beejive came out with their web based aim app

[onlycopunk]

Just go to the meebo web page. I've been doing this for a while now. Or use Fring, which is actually a standalone app that has skype and sip (VOIP ftw) support that doesn't close if you hit the home button.

I'm waiting for a Digsby version for iPhone though.
