[QUOTE="Beemer, post: 266294, member: 15942"] [b]MSN 6.1 for Mac connection problems[/b] So I downloaded and installed the new universal MSN 6.1 for Mac ([url]http://www.microsoft.com/mac/downloads.aspx?pid=download&location=/mac/download/misc/messenger60_download.xml[/url]) and when I go to sign in I get a connection error saying I need to connect to the internet. I got this error randomly probably about a month or two ago using Mercury Mesesnger and it wouldn't connect anymore so i had to use Adium and connect using HTTP. But I raelly want to use the new MSN for Mac. My firewall is on, with MSN port 1863 enabled...I have a router so I just changed some ports and allowed 1863, 1691-1690, and 6901 (which I needed according to portfowarding.com) I am just lost. Its frusterating. Can anyone help me out? [/QUOTE]
