Screenshot of accounts

MSN and Yahoo account do not show my contacts. Gmail account does show contacts and it works.
However, all the account show inactive symbol after account name (red circle with a line through it) so that they cannot be deleted.

Could you retry with Empathy 2.29.x please? You can get it from the Telepathy PPA:

Installed empathy 2.29.93 today.

It has resolved one of the main issue I had reported. Now I am able to add or remove Google, MSN and Yahoo accounts. (Add/Remove buttons are not grayed anymore.)

One interesting observation. All accounts were showing as Offline status after creating them, even though I had entered the login details correctly.

I selected Google account, Then I unchecked "enabled" checkbox and checked it back again; then suddenly the status was green (Available). Same thing happened for MSN and Yahoo also. This "could be" an initialization issue, please check.

However, I still do not see my contacts. View => Offline contacts also did not work. I will continue testing and let you know if I find something.

Thanks.

You don't see *any* contact in the contact list when your accounts are connected?
Comment 5 organio 2010-03-25 13:28:25 UTC
Now I do see the contacts from gmail and yahoo accounts. Did not have a chance to check MSN accounts. I guess the problem is resolved now.

Please close the case for Bug 610763.

Thanks,

Uday
