Google Talk Help · DIGIT-ARC

whenever i use google talk and click on sign in i get a message

"could not authenticate to server" now ahts this

how to solve it

Check ur username and password again. Maybe u entered it incorrectly! Also see if ur firewall allows googletalk.exe access.

Are yaar!
Thats the problem I'l also facing.
So many times I mentioned this problem in Google Talk thread, but no1 replied!

I have same problem. I tried above instructions. nothing happens, just a message of "could not authenticate server" pop-ups.

I think it hv something to do with windows updates.
I mean may be some windows critical update r causing this ERROR.

i ahve done all the above mentioned thingies but no vail i am gonnac unistall it

its like hell :evil:

thnaks all of u for ur replies

R

yeah me too, I hv three ids in gmail. There is no problem with two of them but the third always gives the message as stated above. plz help someone..

Seems there is no solution for this problem...

I hv check on nother comp, which doesnt hv firewall installed, but no benefit.
I hv checked with other GMail IDs (in which one is newly created), but no benefit.
I hv checked by disabling POP service, but no benefit.

Hope some1 will find out the solution or Google will release nother new version or fix for this problem!!!

Google is having probs.

In orkut also, many a times server problem.

In google talk, again the same.

Try after few days, i think it should work fine.

HURRAH!!!!!!!!
I found the solution...

Guys!
I was doing r&d with my browser's settings to make it work.
And VOILLA I got the solution.

Simply disable the SSL option in ur browser's settings.

In Firefox:

goto: Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Security
& uncheck both checkboxes Use SSL 2.0, Use SSL 3.0.

In Internet Explorer

goto: Tools -> Internet Options -> Advanced -> Security
& uncheck both checkboxes Use SSL 2.0, Use SSL 3.0.

It worked for me.
Pls guys tell here if it works for u too or not?

hi

no pal it didn't work for me

maybe coz the thing is new...it will take some more time to figure out what the problem is or good if google releases a fixed update.

R

how can ssl options be connected to a this program?? no mate... your soln. didn't work

Come on..

This is a Jabber and is in NO WAY connected to ur browser!!!

how google talk is connected to a browser ?

Google Talk is not connected to a browser.

already done that

any other upaaye

Did u try askin them ur question ?

i have psoted the qery two days ago ...no reply till now

Don't know guys!
But that trick working for me.
When I again check SSL options, I can't login to Google Talk, and after deselecting the SSL options I can login to Google Talk.
It means its the SSL options that r causing the problem.

Did u guys uncheck both SSL options (2.0 and 3.0) in both Internet Explorer and Firefox (if u r using both) and as well as in Opera too (if u r using it too).

Pls check it again.

Google TALK problem: Not connecting!!

Hello everyone,
After I downlaoded Google TALK, I started it and logged on and invited a lot of frnds 2 use Google TALK.
The next day, when I started Google TALK, I filled in my username and password, but it did not log on and it said that COULD NOT CONNECT TO SERVER.
Then till today, the same problem exists. I even mailed the GOogle People but their hints too did not work. I don't understand that when I did not change any setting why did it stop logging in ?? GMail is working fine with me!!!
P.S: I am not behind any proxy and use 56K dial-up

C

no problems wid ur settings
just a problem wid server and happens at most of the places simultaneously.
same prob here.

L

i wonder, it will get over!! i mean the prbs with teh server... out of my more than 100 attempts, i hav connected once! :d

/legolas

Threads merged

wat the hell is going on
5 days passed and the same problem here

anyone has any other idea how to solve this ?

C

haha! regional problems i guess.

i m in pune, send 30 mails a day, login orkut 15 times and stay there for more than 6 hrs a day and i m workin' on 95% + efficiency/success rate whatever u call.

is it so, google supports fast connections / ISPs and gives it more preference over the slower ones. well i dont' know but thats pretty much possible.

or take it as a two word. <just kiddin'>

/

Well, whatever the case, atleast it should login once. The return mail of Google people did not say anything regarding server probs..! And if GMail and Orkut are running splendidly why should we think that GOogle is having server probs??
Any solution till now??
As for firewalls, well, I don't have any firewall installed.. Only the WIN XP SP2 firewall works in the background. Google Talk worked the first time after installation so what's the prob. now?? :?:

i have no firewall . disabled the antivirus

disabled everything

but no way hozay

Eben now the problem is not solved...For those whose ggofle talk is owrking did u d/l it form the google's site itself or any other source??

/

Ofcourse, from Google TALK's website. Do you suspect hacking everywhere?? I wonder if TALK from any other source would be a modified one.. BUt if it was working once installed what's wrong now? ?TO disable SSL and TLS??
Tried what you said.. BUT DID NOT WORK....
