It is a setting feature. Some people choose not to have it. They must have it set for that to be visable. If they dont have it as a setting to use then you cant do anything about it.

There is a seeting that you would need to select in order for this to happen. But from what I understand of your situation, such is the case because some people choose to select this option ( Found under the Peferences, IM Tab) If the user you are chatting with doesn't have this selected then you will noty be able to see when they are typing a message. People can see you are typing so long as you have this feauture active. Also, when you directly connect with a buddy, you can automatically (even if noone's boxes are checked) see who is typing when. Make sure you have it checked. I believe you go to My AIM, Peferences, Instant Message... try that! :)
