| 275 | === Why do I keep getting a "Buddy List Synchronization" error? === |
| 276 | Sometimes, for a particular buddy, you may keep getting a "Buddy List Synchronization" error every time you sign in, even if you accept adding the buddy. This is because the buddy is on your address book, and not marked for use with messenger. Pidgin does not currently handle this case. |

| 278 | In order to fix this, you need to login to your account on the web, go to your address book, edit the contact that matches, and check the box for "Use this address with Windows Live Messenger". |

275 | 280 | === What does "Error reading from switchboard server" mean? === |
