Yeah that just happened to me. I can't even get that pidgin thing to load. They must be getting hammered.

**DateDoc** · 07-01-2008, 09:45 AM

i'm downloading 10.5.4 now and use adium - i'll know in a few mins.

**DateDoc** · 07-01-2008, 09:47 AM

I wish Adium 2.0 would come out soon as it is supposed to have video chat capabilities.

**Adam-NeonDollars** · 07-01-2008, 09:48 AM

Yep, same here.

**StuartD** · 07-01-2008, 09:49 AM

**B O B** · 07-01-2008, 10:26 AM

**fuhkinglou** · 07-01-2008, 10:32 AM

Has anyone sent a msg to adium. I bet they are getting slammed with "Oh noesz!" emails

**brandonstills** · 07-01-2008, 10:33 AM

I'm having the same problem. Didn't upgrade the OS. If anybody knows the solution please post.

**brandonstills** · 07-01-2008, 10:41 AM

Tried the latest 1.3b5 and no joy. That pidgin site is not loading for me, anyone got a mirror?

**peedy** · 07-01-2008, 10:46 AM

here is what is going on

This is on the adium blog.

Many of you are reporting an error message that started appearing today:

The client version you are using is too old.
Please upgrade at http://pidgin.im/

First, about that website address: Adium uses libpurple, which is the core library from Pidgin. That’s why Pidgin’s address is in the message. We need to swap out that address for Adium’s address.

As for the rest of the error: It appears that, starting today, AOL’s servers now require ICQ 6 or later. Libpurple, in every recent version of Adium, promises to behave like ICQ 5. So, now, AOL’s server responds with “ICQ 5, you say? You’re too old!” Libpurple receives this and passes it on to Adium, which displays it to you.

Once the Pidgin team (they maintain libpurple, remember) fixes this problem, we’ll bring the fix into Adium, and we’ll get it out to you in a new release as soon as we can.

Thanks for your patience.

so apparently even pidgin will not work.

**DomP_nl** · 07-01-2008, 10:50 AM

Good news, gonna update myself now

**Ryan St. Germain** · 07-01-2008, 12:26 PM

I refrained from the update last night, because I was doing uploads and didn't want to have to restart. I'm having the same problem too, so it's not the update to OSX that caused it.

**DateDoc** · 07-01-2008, 10:40 PM

I just updated mine - it is fixed!

**Thurbs** · 07-02-2008, 01:08 AM

1.2.6 adium fixes that

**BiggleJones** · 07-02-2008, 01:43 AM

Nothing to do with the upgrade. ICQ is the problem

Yeah, new version 1.2.6 off Adium's web site fixes the problem now. They did a good job getting that up fast.

**Tuga** · 07-02-2008, 02:09 AM

Great, it's fixed now.

**Manowar** · 07-02-2008, 02:10 AM

**Sid70** · 07-02-2008, 03:26 AM

**Ryan St. Germain** · 07-02-2008, 03:28 AM
