How to Open Multiple Gtalk Instances

Published on April 20, 2007   By Ram  17 Comments  

Some of us have multiple gmail ids for whatever reasons, but we can not open all the ids at a time with gtalk in a single computer. One solution for this is to use gtalk, gmail in IE and gmail in Firefox simultaneously, this way you can login to different Ids. The other solution is to use meebo.

With a single line command code you can open multiple instances of gtalk in a single computer and login with all the ids you have. So far i have logged in with 4 different Ids at a time and they are working perfectly.

How to open multiple gtalk

Click start button and hit run, type command in the run window, now go to the directory where google talk is installed, here enter googletalk/nomutex, now you will see gtalk will open, enter the same command to open multiple instances of gtalk.

Start –>Run–>command
C:\Program Files\Google\Google Talk>googletalk/nomutex

  4. im unable to open gmail as well as gtalk

  5. Gmail problem is not becoz of the multiple instances of gtalk. Lot of people have this problem when using Firefox 2.0.0.7, to avoid this uninstall Adblock extension and restart firefox, if it doesn’t help clear all cache and restart firefox agian. This will surely works.
