How to add Google Talk and Facebook Chat to iChat

February 16, 2011 · 0 comments

If you’re like me, when a chat window starts beeping at you, it’s always impossible to figure out which browser tab it’s coming from. That’s why I like to keep all of my chat options in iChat.

To add your Google and Facebook accounts to iChat, start in the iChat > Preferences menu.

Click the + in the lower left hand corner.

Google and Facebook accounts can both be added to iChat using the Jabber protocol.

For your Google account use your username@gmail.com and password and everything else should be set up automatically.

For your Facebook account use your username@chat.facebook.com and password and everything else will be set up automatically. (Your Facebook username is what shows up after www.facebook.com/ in the address bar to your profile page. If you still haven’t selected one go to Account > Account Settings.)
