Setting up Notifications
Bria uses OS notifications. Make sure that the notifications are set up for Bria in system preferences.
From the menu, click Apple logo > System Preferences > Notifications. In the notification center, choose Bria
4. Choose Banner or Alerts for the alert style. For details on incoming call notifications, see page 13.
2.2 Configuring Bria
Read this section if your system administrator advises you that you must either configure Bria or complete the
configuration.
(If your administrator advises you that configuration is already done, go to “Setting up a Contact List” on
page 5.)
Setting up Accounts
1. From the menu bar, choose Bria 4 > Preferences > Accounts. The Account list appears with a Mac Address
Book account already set up.
2. If you want to pull in the contacts from your Mac Address Book, enable this account. See page 35 for more
information.
Set up the SIP Account
3. Click the + button and choose New SIP Account. The SIP Account window opens.
4. Set up the first SIP account as instructed by your system administrator.
5. When done, click OK; the account is enabled and registered; check the account list to make sure the
account registers successfully.
Set up the Corporate XMPP Account
6. If your administrator has instructed you to set up an XMPP account, click the + symbol at the bottom of the
window and choose New XMPP Account. The XMPP Account window opens.
7. Complete the fields with the information provided by your system administrator.
8. Click OK.
Set up a Personal XMPP Account
If you already have an XMPP account independent of Bria (for example, a Gmail™ webmail service account),
you can create an account in Bria and pull your contacts into the Bria contact list. You can then IM these
contacts directly from Bria.
9. Click the + symbol at the bottom of the window again and choose New XMPP Account. A blank XMPP
Account window opens.
10. Complete the window with the information obtained from the XMPP service provider. Typically you only
have to complete the User Details. For more information, see page 53.
11. Click OK. In a few seconds you will see all the existing contacts from your XMPP account appear in the
Bria contact list, in a new group.
Make sure the Status is green for both accounts.
