Issues

Not Authorized

When I try to connect my pidgin to my gtalk account I get the following error:

   Not Authorized

Log into http://accounts.google.com/ Then under the "Signing In" section I chose "Access for Less Secure Apps". It was disabled, and once I enabled that option, Pidgin was instantly able to connect. [1]
