Won't let me sign in from any computer on AIM.


Question Posted Friday August 26 2011, 10:15 am

I cannot sign in on my aim from any computer. These are the error
messages i am getting:

Downloaded on to pc AIM: Connection error. Please try signing on
again. Try Auto Configure or change your setting manualy

AIM express: You have attempted to sign on too many times. Please try
again in a few minutes.

Mail(When you go to check you r mail, it gives you the option to sighn
onto aim): Your connection to the AIM system has been lost. Please try
signing in again.
Target rate limit reached. statusDetailCode 5


If this means anything, someone was messaging me about seeing her on
'cam' I refused numerous times. Got really mad and called her a slut
and a whore. She kept messaging me like nothing happened. But then all
of a sudden it quit. Could i be possibly banned or something? I am
able to log onto my other account on aim,

From what you've written above it sounds like you could be experiencing a connection problem, If you are wireless make sure the wireless connection is properly connected. Generally there should be a little computer icon on the right bottom hand of your computer if it has an "x" symbol you are not connected to the internet. By fixing this problem you can click on the icon and reconnect it to the wireless.


You've also said that AIM had given you the message that you've attempted to sign in multiple times. After to many attempts of trying to log in your account will go on hold for 12 hours for security reasons. To many failed log in attempts can be mistaken for hacking.

If you are not wireless, Make sure the USB plug is properly inserted into the back of your computer. If you cannot still log onto AIM then I would suggest you trying to log on from Meebo.com if you cannot sign on to your user name then likely your account is on hold due to multiple log in attempts or yes, You've been banned.
