Hey there...

I'm using OSX and I have iChat and MSN Messenger. I can't send files (picture files) through MSN and I can only send the files through iChat occassionally.

Anyone know what I need to do?

I have the Sharing Allow clicked on both MSN and AOL, but it still isn't working.

What do I do???

thanks

Welcome to MacNN.

YOu may get some more help in the OS X Software Forum, but I can try to help you here.

Are you on a cable modem behind a Linksys or any other kind of router or firewall? That usually causes lots of problems with AIM and MSN file sharing.
