Ok, this is going to be quite longwinded but please bear with me...
Short Version:
There's a plugin for iPhoto called Keyword Assistant that makes adding keywords to pictures a lot easier. It really is an awesome plugin. Unfortunately, I think it causes a bug when trying to initiate a file transfer with an MSN contact by dragging and dropping from iPhoto.
Long Version:
I'm using AdiumX 0.88, iPhoto 6.0 and Keyword Assistant 1.9 on OS 10.4.4.
When attempting to initiate a file transfer with a contact on MSN, I drag and drop a photo from within iPhoto into the message area in the Adium chat window. The preview of the photo appears but when i press return the file transfer window doesn't appear and the contact isn't notified that there is a transfer for them to accept.
If I open up the file transfer window manually, the file is listed there but it's status is initiating the transfer. Cancelling this transfer doesn't work and Adium has to be restarted for the listing to disappear.
After getting several other people to try and start transfers in the same way and them not having any problems, I realised that the major difference to our systems was the presence of Keyword Assistant on mine.
After uninstalling KA, the drag and drop initiated file transfer from within iPhoto works as expected, with the file transfer window appearing and the contact being prompted to accept the file.
Summary:
Am I completely wrong in assuming KA is the culprit?
Does anyone else have iPhoto, KA and Adium running without this problem?
What can I do to provide the developer of KA with as much information as possible so as to make this bug easier to fix?
