Questions from Beginners MQL5 MT5 MetaTrader 5 - page 151

 
trora:

I can't get it to work... I downloaded mt4 from metaquotes - I don't have a button to add a new server.

How do you call up this window?

I have a terminal from Alpari. I downloaded from MK their 509 build(https://www.metaquotes.net/) and on it I already entered the demo server address for testing. There I also upgraded to the testing version.

In MetaTrader4 you need to know the server IP of the broker.

You do so: at the bottom right hand side with the left button:

1

then fill in:

2

Yeah, that's easier. Do you need an IP or is the name of the server enough?

IP is better.

this is not the most important part.

the first thing to do is look at the build number. then the rest.

cancel the account and look in the "help/about" menu

you need build 509, in all likelihood that's it, because 536 has such a button.

the new server will need to be added differently.

go to menu "Tools/Settings/Server". there type (copy) the server address directly into the Server line:

delete login and password and press OK.

after this, when you open a new account, the second server should appear, as well as in the "login" window

How do you invoke this window?

I have a terminal from Alpari. For normal beta testing of the new terminal, I downloaded from MK their 509 build(https://www.metaquotes.net/) and in it I already entered the demo server address for testing. There I also upgraded to the testing version.

he doesn't need the 536 build. read the previous posts.
 
MetaDriver:
he does not need 536. read his previous posts.

I wrote how I did everything for myself specifically to test the 536th build so as not to delete the working 509th build from Alpari, but I downloaded the 509th build.

My post, too, read carefully. I am reading it carefully.

Read my post carefully too, how much of this stuff can I do? I am reading it carefully.

Got the 509 build. can't connect anywhere yet - it's the weekend. I'll try tomorrow
 

Today the terminal crashed for the first time after a couple of minutes with this message.

Can you tell me if it's critical or just a glitch?
