A skype account lost - how do I regain it?

Hello, all
I used to have a skype account that I quit using a long time ago (about a year). Now, I tried to revive it but it turned out that I sadly haven't saved neither the password nor the e-mail tied to it.
Could anyone tell me please what to do in such a situation?
Thanks in advance!

I thought I solved it by turning on "Create Acrobat Layers" in InDesign
when exporting the pdf.
And yes I was able to go in Layers panel and give the property "never
print" to my button.
But it still prints - what am I missing.
I have 100 pages - I only created it on the first page in InDesign.
In Acrobat I give the button in the layer the property not to print,
then i duplicate the button to all the other pages.
But only the first page doesn't print the button.
Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?
Do I need to apply the property on each page?
Kind regards Nina

I forgot my password and deleted my email account. How do I regain it so I can see what purchases I have made in the past?

I forgot my old password under a deleted email address. Is there a way to get access to that account so that I can see what purchases I have made in the past? This was at least 5 years ago that I did this? Thank you.

How can I link 2 skype accounts

I have 2 skype accounts. How can I link it and have only 1 skype account?

You are right. Linking two different Skype accounts is not possible.

Unfair blocking of my Skype Account

Yesterday morning I received a fair usage policy violation warning from Skype. Firstly there is no explanation of why was there a policy violation. My usage of skype has been the same across the last 3 years. I have an unlimited subscription for calling India. Having read the policy for fair usage, I don't see any usage violation I have made. Today morning at 1 AM I receive a 2nd message from Skype saying there is a policy usage violation blocking. Whoa, I don't understand this. Between yesterday and today I made 5 calls, none of those are different to any of the calls made in the past. What is the reason for the violation then? I haven't shared my skype details with anyone and yesterday when I saw the warning message, I thought someone could have hacked in, and therefore changed my password as well.Suddenly today I get the fair usage policy violation blocking email and I am completely taken by surprise. I would like to state the following:Fair usage policy warning and blocking messages should not be one way traffic. It should involve interaction with the customer.There should be some way that it should allow the customer to interact with the skype staff to understand the root cause for the problem.Fair usage blocking can't be just immediately done. It's unfair on the customer. For all you know the customer hasn't even understood the reasons for why these messages came up and what behaviour needs to change.There should be some time between the fair usage warning, education session for the customer and the blocking. It allows the customer to display a change in behaviour. This is especially important because the customer might not know areas they are making errors.These are all in line with expected customer relationship management requirements. Skype has just taken all my subscription money for a year and now sitting on it saying we are blocking your account! There is no explanation of which part of the policy is violated either. When you fill a form to put the complaint through, some absurd questions are asked. What is the whole point of asking the customer the year of creation of skype account? How will a customer remember stuff like that? I would like for skype to action this immediately and resolve this problem. You can't incovenience the customer just like that. I have read the community blogs and understand that in the last few months this practice from skype has signficantly increased.

Same thing happened to me today. For the same India unlimited calling. I believe shoe is unfairly trying to push people out of this legacy plan which is no longer available for purchase.
Today I also had a chat with the Skype customer care representative and registered a complain. But to my surprise I also did not get any complain number so that I can follow up on the complaint.
True corporate bullying on part of Microsoft and Skype.
Did you get any resolution to your problem.

Skype account being hacked

I received a email from skype stated that i had change my password and correspondence address. In actual i never change anything for my skype account. How can i get back my account?

Hi, Olyaz, and welcome to the Community,
Neither have I concluded how the perpetrator could have accessed your grandmother's contacts by using your account. Instead, I suspect that your grandmother's account was also compromised (hacked).
Ensure your account passwords are robust (good information is in the articles referenced in my signature block, below). I would also run an anti-virus/malware/spyware scan on your and your grandmother's computers, using the most recent virus signature files available. For avoidance of doubt, ensure all updates and patches are also installed, and that things such as Adobe and Java are updated.
Regards,
Elaine

How Do I Close My Skype Account?

Dear Readers,
This question is asked a lot here in the Community, particularly on this message board. Perhaps this topic added here will be helpful.   This FAQ article explains the process of how to remove your Skype account (the blue type is actually a "link" to the FAQ article): https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA142/how-do-i-close-my-skype-account
First, remember to cancel all active subscriptions. If you think you might be entitled to a refund, please see this FAQ to determine this: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA12147/when-can-i-get-a-refund?
Second, remove any saved payment methods from your account dashboard.
Third, remember to change the account status or presence setting to "offline." For your convenience, an abridged version of the FAQ article's text - specific only to removing a Skype account - is copied and pasted below:
How do I close my Skype account?
If you want to close your Skype account, you’ll need to contact us so we can close it for you.
First, make sure you’ve cancelled any subscriptions or recurring payments, and used up any Skype Credit you have. Everything associated with your Skype account – including contacts, purchases and history – will be lost when your account is closed.
Next, contact Skype Customer Service and tell us you’d like to close your account.
It might take up to 30 days for your name to disappear from the directory, but after that, no one will be able to find you in Skype. Your name will still appear in your friends’ contact lists unless they remove it, but they won’t be able to contact you.
In the meantime, you can remove your personal information from your profile to prevent people from finding you based on those details.
Remove your profile information
This will make it more difficult for people to find you in the Skype directory. You can remove or edit all of your details except for your Skype Name.
To remove your profile information:
Change your profile picture and mood message.
If you have a profile picture that identifies you, you might want to change it. In Skype, click Skype > Profile > Change Your Picture… (on a Mac, click your profile picture and then Change Picture) and browse for a different picture.
You can leave a status message saying you’re no longer active on Skype, or giving your new Skype Name if you’re using a different account. Go to Skype > Profile > Edit Your Profile… and then click Enter mood message. (On a Mac, click your name or profile picture and then click Add Mood Message.)
Sign out of Skype.
It’s a good idea to set your status to offline or invisible, and then sign out of Skype on all your devices. Type the chat command /remotelogout into the chat window to sign yourself out of Skype on any other devices you might be using, then sign out on the one you’re using now.
Go to your account.
Sign in to your account on skype.com
Can’t sign in? Find out what to do if you’ve forgotten your username or password.
Go to your profile.
Scroll to the bottom of the page and, under Settings and preferences, click Edit profile.
Edit your profile details.
In the Personal Information section, click Edit.
Remove your information from the Personal Information and Contact Details sections. Some fields are mandatory - replace the info in these with random characters, because you won’t be able to save it if the fields are empty. Click Save.
Please remember this is a one-time request which cannot be reversed.
One more point to keep in mind: removing your account from the Search Directory will not "pull," "remove," "delete," or "retract" instant messages or file transfers that you have previously sent to your contacts. Your account name will still appear on their contact lists, although they will no longer be able to contact you using the account name you have requested be removed.
The last step of the process is to file your request to remove your account with Skype Customer Service.   This final and required step in the process is often overlooked, and we here in the Community are not authorized to process service requests. Here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service
Skype is aware of sporadic website issues. Temporarily enabling scripts, disabling browser add-ins that might disable pop-up dialog boxes, and temporarily enabling pop-up dialog boxes may help get you through to Skype Customer Service. If you still experience difficulty reaching Skype Customer Service or find yourself redirected back to the Community, please try again using a different web browser.
Look to approve a pop-up dialogue box which would connect you to start an instant message chat with a customer service agent. If you have pop-ups blocked in your browser settings, this will also block reaching an agent.
Last and not least, when you reach the last step of the process, remember to click on the "Start Chat" link when you are provided the choice of visiting the Community or starting an instant message chat with a customer service agent.
Best regards,
Elaine

My skype account was hacked!! how can I get my mon...

My Skype account was hacked few hours ago, an online number was bought, plus a lot of credit was used.
How can I get my money back ?
I don't see contact support anywhere..please help

Same thing happened to me. Skype is a TERRIBLE company to deal with. I only lost 80 pence < 1USD so I don't really care, but I will never load credit onto my account again. Skype just lost a customer. Apart from any free services they have.
I don't see how my account was hacked, I use it very rarley. It just autologs in. I run it on a networked business PC and the IT guys can't find any viruses/trojons on it.
Skype don't care about their customers from my experiences with them

Suggestions on how to handle "Hacked Skype Account...

I. User Can Still Access Account
Run a full anti-virus scan (and other security scans available in your computer). This may help to detect and remove any elements that the hacker may have used in gaining access to your account.
2. Immediately Change Your Password, preferably with something that is difficult to guess, and not related or totally different from the passwords you previously used.
3. If the hacker also changed your registered email address, changed it back to your own email address. Here is the link on how to change your registered email address;

II. User Can Not Access Account (Password Has Been Changed) – Registered Email Address Not Changed.
Run a full anti-virus scan (and other security scans available in your computer). This may help to detect and remove any elements that the hacker may have used in gaining access to your account.

3. Contact Skype to report the incident. They may be able to provide you with further explanation, clarification and helpful advice. They will most likely ask you to provide some details in order for them to verify that you are the real account owner. Select subject/topic Security & Privacy >> Identity theft / Account takeover.

4. You can also contact your bank to inform or alert them of the incident if there is a payment method registered in your Skype account.   They may also be able to provide you with additional suggestions, advice, or options.
5. If your account has no recent purchase, it may no longer be possible to retrieve your account.   Still you can try to contact Skype to know if you have other possible options.

Skype is useless for this.
They will claim that you the user are responsible, and that they don't need to do anyhing.
So....
Do not allow Skype to autorefill your account when it runs low on balance, and do not store a creditcard, or other payment info with them.
Each user is liable for whatever the hackers can steal.
As this is from recent personal experience, I recommend you to never keep payment information on file with Skype.

How can I regain access to a MAC account? -- Macbook Pro?

Situation: My wife has a 13" Mac Book Pro, that we received in May 2011.
OS: Mac OS X Snow Leopard (not sure which version it came with -- 10.6?)
My wife's computer had two administrative accounts. She uses one regularly, and the other is the 'primary' account for downloading updates and such.
She was unable to figure out how to use Time Machine or any of the other backup software and the like.
Yesterday, she updated to OS X Lion, and found that a number of the programs that she enjoys using no longer function.
She wanted to roll-back to Snow Leopard. After transferring the majority of the 'must-save' files, she put in the install disk again for snow leopard. This allowed her to start fresh, however, she wants to regain access to those old accounts. She tried, but, none of the passwords work anymore. We know what the passwords are; but, they are not working.
Our ATTEMPTED solution: She found a site "http://en.kioskea.net/forum/affich-7339… This site told her to do something in the boot terminal that allowed her to add a new administrative account.
She tried going into that new admin account and changing the passwords to the other accounts; no joy. She changes them, but, they are not retained when she logs off or restarts.
How can she regain access to her old files?

Open itunes. Sign into your account.

I have two numbers on one skype account - how do I...

My skype account has two numbers and I want to add one more, how do I allow answering of them separately?

Hi, DHPE.Staff, and welcome to the Community,
Unfortunately, Skype does not provide a facility to do this. While a Skype account's incoming calls, whether to the Skype account itself or a Skype Number, can be forwarded to multiple mobile or land line numbers, each Skype Number purchased for an account is considered affiliated with that account and cannot be forwarded separately.
The work-around people use is to create a new account for each Skype Number needed; that way call forwarding and caller ID can be differentiated between the numbers.
The thing to be mindful of in doing this, however, is to use different payment methods, otherwise the payment methods and accounts may be trapped inadvertently by Skype's anti-fraud filters. More details about this here:
