Here's how to configure iChat to connect to Google Talk:
From the iChat menu, select Preferences...
Click Accounts along the top of the dialogue box.
Click the + button along the bottom to add a new account.
Select Jabber Account from the Account Type drop-down menu.
Enter the following information in the appropriate fields:
@gmail.com
to the end of your username. For example, iloveyoko
will become iloveyoko@gmail.com
gordon@example.com
).Your password
.talk.google.com
Click Add.
Enter the following information in the appropriate fields:
talk.google.com
Port: 5223
Check the boxes next to Connect using SSL and Allow self-signed certificates. You don't need to check the box next to Warn before password is sent insecurely -- your password is always secure with Google Talk.
Enter iChat in the Location field. If this field is left blank, you won't be able to sign in.
