Changing Your Online Status
Your online status tells other people if you are available for online chats and instant meetings. Each online status is indicated by a unique icon and a customizable online status message. You can change your online status at any time.
Follow these steps to change your online status:
- Choose an online status in any of the following three ways:
- Choose an online status from the Options menu.
- Choose an online status from the drop-down menu at the bottom of the Sametime Connect window.
- In Sametime Connect for the desktop, right-click the Sametime Connect tray icon
at the bottom of your screen and choose an online status from the shortcut menu.
- If you have chosen to edit your online status message every time your online status changes, the Edit Message window appears. You can:
- Click OK to leave the default message.
- Enter a new message or select a different message from the drop-down list, and click OK.
- Clear the "Edit message every time..." check box.
Note Sametime Connect for the desktop can automatically change your online status to Active or Away based on your computer mouse and keyboard usage.
