How do I set up Google Talk/Hangout in Pidgin?

people

my setting work perfect (on windows) I recommend NOT ENABLE settings for less secure apps

the trick ----> first enable 2-Step Verification in gmail settings, then add pidgin, then copy the password generate

my settings

Protocol: XMPP Username: myUsername (without @mydomain.com) Domain: gmail.com Resource: Home Password: myPassword (paste the password) Checked Remember password

check new email not.

Connection security: Require encryption Connect port: 5222 (default) Connect server: leave blank (default) File transfer proxies: proxy.eu.jabber.org (default)

enjoy

This configuration is what worked for me:

NOTE

You need a Connect Server: talk.google.com in the Advanced tab.

Hope this helps. Good Luck.
