Skype call share screen not working on Windows 7

To see the Skype version, in Skype open Help -> About Skype.

Hello Skype community! I have a little bit of a problem with my share screen function. This is on Windows 7, and it used to be fine before. My friend's screen, (We'll call her Flower for now), can show up just fine on my screen. But Flower cannot see my screen on her skype call. Screenshot Flower's Laptop is also running Windows 7. I've tried quitting Skype, and even re-downloading it. Sadly, I'm not so sure what version of Skype Flower's running, or mine. Any help is appreciated!

Hi
Strange but I can see the computer I need to share screen with in my shared devices and I can "CONNECT AS" and see all my shared files but I CAN NOT share screen. It is properly enabled and share screen works with all my other networked computer.
Any ideas what gives here???!!! Thanks for any suggestions!

Same problem here, cannot login into a MacPro (10.6.4) from another MacPro (10.6.4), or from a MacBook (10.6.4), or from a MacBook Pro (10.6.4), all of them located in the same network (intranet).
As the original post, I can mount discs remotely, even ssh into the destination machine, but screen sharing (or even the simple vnc) just does not work.

Hi Cat32,
I understand you are not able to print using shortcut keys.
I was just wondering if you installed the printer on your new Windows 8 Pro.
I would like to help but I do need to know the printer that you are using.

"Share Screen" not working from MacBook to iMac

Hello friends.
I have an iMac (OS 10.6.6, 3.06 GHz core 2 Duo) and a MacBook Pro (OS 10.6.6, 2,53 GHz core 2 Duo)
It's been a while since I had this problem, and I could not solve it.
When I try to connect from iMac to MacBook (from Finder, in shared computers). I click into Share Screen and the login panel appears. After I type the user/password, the program "Share Screen" crashes and never get connected.
It doesn't happen in the other way. I have tried to replace the program from one computer to other and still happening. I have the crash report in case it is needed.
I hope that you could help me fixing this problem, as I am desesperated.
Thanks in advance,
David

Usually when a program crashes in this way, it's a problem with the program itself rather than a configuration error.
Have you tried the "Repair Permissions, Zap PRAM, Repair Disc" sequence?
Good luck,
Archie

Share screen not working

I have OS 10.5.1. So does my colleague. I have an iMac with a camera. He has an iMac without a camera. He has DSL (1.5 mbps), while I have cable modem (16 mbps).
From everything I have read about iChat, he should still be able to share his screen with me.
We can easily get an audio session going, but, whenever we try to initiate a sharing session to share his screen, we get messages saying it is starting up, but then nothing ever appears. Is the DSL line too slow? Are we being impatient to expect the sharing to start within a minute? Is his color setting too high? (We have tried to reduce it to Thousands with no success.)
What is wrong? What else should we try?

Hi,
Apple have posted the ports iChat 3 uses.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93208
They have also published the Leopard ones (Without saying the Bonjour, Jabber and Login one are still needed)
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306688
The Later article also says nothing about which ports the Screen sharing is done on.
Reading other pieces of information you learn that the Screen Sharing is based on Apple Remote Desktop.
In fact if in System Preferences > Sharing this is turned on you can not Screen Share from the Finder.
This table lists ports for that
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106439
Namely port 5900 and 5988.
However I run Little Snitch, an app/utility that will tell me the ports iChat is using at any one stage and to what IP.
In iChat Screen sharing I have seen ports all over the place and not restricted to the one I have pointed as being listed.
I use UPnP in my routing modem and this seems to cope with this.
The Settings for Displays and the Speeds in this case are immaterial.
Audio chats normally use about 20k or so on my Mac
Screen sharing is about 48k (Probably just above what a dial-up modem might throughput) so both your speeds are good enough.
I have not seen excessive speed be a problem here as it can be with certain Video chats as there is less data to buffer.

Native Process calling TabTip.exe not working on Windows 8

Hey,
I'm desperately trying to get the nice Touch Keyboard to display on Windows 8 for my AIR App.
Looking at this article http://sukantadas.wordpress.com/2012/10/16/executing-exe-file-from-desktop-through-adobe-a ir/ it seems possible, and it works nicely on my windows 7 machine, beit that TabTip.exe is a slightly different keyboard on Win7.
Over to windows 8, I can't get it to work for love nor money. ('m testing on this http://www.samsung.com/us/business/computing/tablet-pcs/XE700T1C-A03US).
It works fine if I wrapp the SWF with MDM.ZINC - Mdm.System.exec("C:\\Program Files\\Common Files\\microsoft shared\\ink\\TabTip.exe"); but then I'm out of the AIR SDK and stuck with MDM Zinc; which doesn't even recognise MouseDown events on Windows 8 (touching the screen).. but that's another story - http://www.mdmforum.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=29963
Please can someone help me as I've been pulling my hair out..

I lost my password to respond.
Thanks for helping me out. I found out how to do it in ASP.net though. I use the app for native process because I was having some huge issues with AIR.
Thanks again

Touch Screen not working in Windows 8.1 HP Pavilion 23 TouchSmart

I've checked the device manager and the device seems to be working properly and have the latest driver installed.
However, in the Pen and Touch section, the Touch action is not able to be altered. It is set to Equivalent mouse action, but it is not doing that either. I can alter the Double-tap and the Press and hold.
I believe it stopped working after the last two updates.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

I answered my own question. I did a complete shut down instead of a restart. When I started it up again after about 10 minutes, the touchscreen was back to working.

Hello
You purchased a Montenegro 60 mins Subscription on July 21st 2014 and used your full allocation of 60 minutes. You then purchased a further 60 minutes on July 30th 2014. As this is a monthly plan your newly purchased minutes will be added at or about midnight UTC/GMT on August 21st 2014. If you wish to add additional minutes before the monthly anniversary of your plan you have to purchase a different # of minutes (if that option exists).

the call ring a few times then jump to no answer. however, my friend told that he have not receive any calls or have any missed calls during the time i made the call.
it makes i paid the subscription fee but cannot get the service being offered. my money is just wasted at all.

Exporting Crystal Report to HTML is not working in Windows 7

Hi Sir,

It looks like inheritance is broken in the component hierarchy for JFrame in Windows 7 JDK 1.6.0_23-b05. The only thing remotely related to inheritance in your code snippet is the WindowListener, which does little. See camickr's advice about built-in exit management.
EDIT - using the post title as a clue, I realize you may be talking about the component hierarchy, and whether the contentPane's background is visible through the upper layers. Instead of guessing, I'd prefer you describe your "issue" accurately (observed vs expected behavior).

Share calculation Not working in the report

Iam surprised not to ge the simple share calculation not working at my report.
I have a dimension and corresponding values ( measures) .I made a Total at the end of the report. and I want to calcualte share of Total to each corresponding value.
how to do this, any thougts,...
I have used calculated memebers for this, But I wan to make the percentage of the total ( which is calculated inside Tool itself)
Please help....

Prassad,
Not totally sure what you are trying to achieve but there a couple of possible solutions:
1) Total = total of all dimension members. Assuming you only have three dimension members then you should have a fourth member called ALL_DIMS or something similar. In the Share calculation template you need to specify the Total level as the basis for your share calc. This will generate the following result:
                         Revenue % Share
- All Members     600         100%
     A                  100           17%
     B                  200           33%
     C                  300           50%2) The total you are referring to is in fact a sub total and is the result of adding together only the results for A + B + C, i.e. you have hundreds of dimension members but you specifically want to see a total for just these three members. To do this create a new custom aggregate call "My Total" and add together the dimension members A + B + C - Custom Aggs are a new feature to Discoverer OLAP (Checkout Mark Rittman's excellent blog article for more information on this feature: http://www.rittmanmead.com/2006/11/13/checking-out-the-new-discoverer-101220-features/)
Then in the Share calculation wizard set the basis for your index using the last option in the list "Specific Dimension Member" and select your new custom aggregate member.
Hope this helps

Flash 10.2 not working in Windows 7 IE8 despite 'successful' installation

Hi there,
I downloaded flash player to attempt to view flash media on sites such as bbc website and youtube.
Despite the installation claiming to be successful, I still cannot view video on any sites I have tried.
(bbc website says I don't have the correct version, youtube says I need to upgrade)
My system details are as follows:
Windows 7 Home Premium, 32-bit operating system
Internet Explorer 8.0.7600.16385IC (it makes no mention of being 64-bit)
Flash Player 10.2.152.26
I have tried following the troubleshooting guides on the adobe website, particularly 'Flash player does not work in Windows 7'
but I have not managed to fix the problem.
I've also gone through several threads on this forum, relating to similar problems, but I'm sorry I haven't been able to fix it.
So far, the stuff I have tried is listed below, but since it has not worked, I assume I have done something incorrectly, missed something,
or I have not yet found the right solution.
The Flash Player does not appear on my programs list, but it does show up in the control panel/list of installed programs.
I don't know how to get flash player to run on its own, so I can't access settings etc. for the hardware acceleration.
The folder located at C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash contains 5 files:
Flash10m.ocx; FlashInstall.log ; FlashUtil10m_ActiveX.dll; FlashUtil10m_ActiveX.exe; install.log
When I visit the adobe page for testing flash player, it does not show me any animation; there is a blank white rectangle with a tiny red 'X' in its top left corner, which I assume should be a box containing the version information if the player had been recognized.
I have looked at the IE8 'tools/Manage Add-Ons - 'show' All Add Ons, and there is no listing of 'Shockwave Flash Object'
although there is a listing of   'shockwave activeX control' which is enabled.
I've set my IE8 security settings to medium for the categories of 'Trusted Sites' and 'Internet' and I've made sure to set:
'Download Signed ActiveX Controls' to 'Prompt' and 'Run ActiveX Controls And Plug-ins' to 'Enable'
I've tried unintalling the flash player using the specified tool, removing the adobe download tool, and manual re-installation.
Finally, I tried (with much hesitation) to modify the registry key referred to in the Flash-Killer or 'kill-bit' guidlines.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility\{D27CDB6E-AE6D-11CF-96B8-444553540000}
The key existed, with a Name: compatibility flags ; Type: REG_DWORD ; Data: 0x0000400 (1024)
So I changed the value from 400 to 000 as suggested.
This is not worked either, despite uninstalling flash player, re-booting and re-installing.
Finally, I updated the graphics driver for my ATI RADEON HD 5670 card, but aside from scaring me by drastically altering the screen resolution and not allowing me to roll back the driver, it has unfortunately not solved the flash player problem.
I appreciate that the people with expertise have given loads of help on this problem, I hope I haven't missed something important when following the advice, but I'm pretty stuck, so if anyone can help, I thank you very much.
thanks,
pad

Hi eidnolb,
unfortunately, the installation of FP 9.0.280 based on running flashplayer9r280_winax.exe has not worked:
I cannot see the animation / spinning, there is no animation and no box showing the version.
(I have included a partial screenshot in this message, file name flashplayer_test_screenshot.jpg)
Therefore, I did not continue with the instructions.
The control panel list of programs does show 'Adobe Flash Player ActiveX' as being installed, version 9.0.280.0
There were no messenger utilites listed in the system tray.
As you advised, the first thing I did was to modify the {D27CDB6E-AE6D-11CF-96B8-444553540000} registry key value from 400 to 000.
After modifying the value by making it Zero, I re-started the computer.
Regarding Administrator Account, I looked on ther 'User Accounts' information, and there is only one user, my dad, and he is listed as Administrator.
Sorry, but I will need to ask for your further advice. In case it is useful, I tried to get a list of all processes that were running on the computer
(in case some of them inhibit the installation. most of them don't mean anything to me, even when they are given a description by the windows 7 Task Manager Processes List - I have pasted the text file below in this post, since I couldnt see how to attach files.)
thank you for your help,
