iChat question

hal515 · Nov 13, 2007

is there a way you can enable tab chatting because I always have so many windows open for it. Like just Only for text chatting

open the iChat prefs, under the messages tab, check off the box "Collect chats into a single open window"

Thank you I will apply this at home

I looked there but I didn't see that preference

This feature is only available in the version of iChat which comes with Leopard. If you don't have Leopard, you can switch to another messaging application...or upgrade.

Oh, if you aren't on leopard, then download Chax, that will give you tabs in iChat.

This may sound like a stupid question, but I accidently pressed the red X on my contact list and I went into view and it, nothing says like show contact list. Sorry for a very stupid question but I really would like to know.
