Hi All
Is anyone here running OS 10.4.9 on a newer Mac with the Intel core processor?
I had heard that some older programs might have trouble running with Intel.
I can't get AIM to run on this new iMac.
It will let me send one or two messages then it just quits. It quits even quicker if I try to surf and IM at the same time.
Any Advice appreciated.
Thanks

No help with AIM but try using Adium instead.
It supports AIM, MSN, Jabber (plus lots of others) etc and seems pretty stable.

Plus it has a nice duck icon :)

Thanks Foamcow
I have Adium, and had it with my older iMac before it crashed, it is a good program, now I am having trouble getting back to MSN and Yahoo etc (since I lost all my passwords and setup info). but can use it with my AIM buddies with no problem.
