How to solve the Pidgin GTalk client not working on Windows 7 problem

google-talkpidgin

When I try to connect my pidgin to my gtalk account it doesn't work anymore.
What should I do? The error is

Not Authorized

I used

  1. Protocol XMPP
  2. Username without @gmail.com
  3. Domain gmail.com (default)
  4. Checked Require SSL/TLS (default)
  5. Connect port 5222 (default)
  6. File transfer proxies proxy.eu.jabber.org (default)

All other options are unchecked or empty

The instructions at Google Talk Support or Google Talk Support Forums didn't work for me

Best Answer

Make sure the connect server is talk.google.com

Check the password (Duh?)

Try unchecking the security, just to see it it will connect without it.

update pidgin?
