Big problems with Skype on Windows 8

Skype and Windows 8 suck. I have to sign in on one microsoft account, then when I go to download skype it comes up another email address, when trying to change it sends me in the same circle. I will not be using skype on windows 8 if I can help it. It used to be so simple and now they make it so complicated. I have wasted hours on this.
Post and reply transferred to Windows 8 message board to create new discussion topic.
Subject/title amended accordingly.

I am in a similar situation. I have a new laptop which came with Win8 - ditto W8 sux - I went to apps and there were 23 apps waiting to download and install - things that I never asked for are there - Bing, Kindle, shopping, several weather apps, etc. I click download and nothing completes downloading. The error says I cannot download apps because Win firewall is not running. my ISP (Comcast) provides Norton to customers. I stopped Norton and I was unable to start Win FW. I deleted Norton completely and still get the same message and still unable to start Win FW. Like the other user, I have also spent many hours trying to resolve this. I had Lenovo tech support try to help but they were also unable to fix the problem I called Lenovo Tech Support last Sunday and this time I was told software support is not included in the warranty! I checked the warranty and he was right - software is excluded. And we all know how hard it is to get support from Microsoft. So I had to go back to my backup laptop to run skype because I need Skype for business but that's an unacceptble solution... If I could download Skype without using the apps feature (i.e., download in a browser) I could probably get it to work but I keep being brought back to the app download section of Win 8.... i have a new computer only partly functional. I let the 90 day time frame for "Return for any reason" during 90 days followng the purchase run out so I get no help from Microsoft, Lenovo or Costco! Is there anything else I should try? Or do I just give up downloading additional software??
Subject/title amended to match new conversation subject/title.

Need Help FAST||! Big Problem with Oracle on Windows.

I have Oracle 9.2.0.6 on Windows 2003 Enterprise Edition SP2. My oracle SID in XRTY01PD. The OracleServiceXRTY01PD Startup Type is Automatic.
The Service starts but the database does not open. When I go to a command prompt and log into SQLPlus and connect using "/ as sysdba" I get connected to a idle instance. I tell it to Startup and it starts and opens no problem. No errors in the alter log or the event viewer.
I found a note: 1022458.6 dated 2007, that Oracle on NT has to have a 4 character SID. I can not believe that is this day and age I can only have 4 characters in the SID? Is this the case with Windows 2003? Does anyone know a work around for this?

Problem with Skype in Windows 10

I upgraded my Windows 8.1 laptop to Windows 10. Initially I had a problem logging into my Skype account but I seem to have overcome that. Now when I open Skype I get the messdage "Skype home is unavailable..." and I can't make a call. Does anyone know of a fix or workaround?

Many thanks Ruwin, you were right on the money. My face is very red on this one.

at least that the operator has confirmed to me that he called me. I also have problems with either the start of the mac with the power off. I can not understand if it crashes or is just very very slow.
Finally, I have a problem with the external hard disck. I often said to have been ejected incorrectly (not true) and I start to restore the startup recovery disk because disk utility is ineffective from the normal operating system .. is a shocking thing, but how you reduced. in four years it had never happened. seem to have windows or worse. Wake up.
I am an Italian, alas, and then I would like an answer to my language because my € are the same as German French or English.

You are on Windows 2000, you do not have a "Firefox" button, and should consider yourself to be fortunate in that you still have menus and don't have to do anything to get the menus back instead of the "Firefox" button. (The same applies to Windows XP users).
Use the "File" menu to get to Import. You are not on Windows 7 or Vista, and don't have to put up with the nonsense added for Aero.
If you want the "Firefox" button you can get it with View -> toolbars -> (uncheck) Menu Bar. The menu bar and the "Firefox" button were supposed to be mutually exclusive (which is impossible in some cases without being incompatible).
Once you are using the "Firefox" button ...
Use the "Alt" key to view the menu bar (temporarily) containing File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, and Help. On Windows 7 and Vista, the menu bar was hidden by default in Firefox 4 and above. These menu items are more or less available under the "Firefox" button which has the most used of the built-in Firefox menu items available in a different format.
To get back to having menus again. "Firefox" button -> Options (second column) -> (check) Menu Bar
You can make '''Firefox 7.0.1''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 8.0, look like 3.6)].

As a suggestion I'd put the Text_io segments into their own begin - exception - end sub-blocks within the main code. This way if Text_io does raise an exception you can catch it earlier as it may be able to recover - That is if it is a text_io exception.
Other than that you;ll have to step through in Debug.

Problem with the Finder window in Chrome

Hello,
I have a problem with my finder window in Chrome.
Since the window isn't a separate window anymore, but stuck to the top of the webpage, my finder window is too big. I can't read the "Cancel" or "Send" (I have no idea what's supposed to be there in English but I assume it's something like "send" and "cancel") buttons. I have provided some images of the problem, even if I make the Chrome window as small as possible, the finder window still is too big for my screen. I can resize the finder window from lest to right, but not up or down, which is extremely irritating for me.
If anyone can help me how I can solve this problem.
Thanks!

I found the solution on another thread...Here it is.
"I was having the same problem. I found a way to make it smaller. First, I opened chrome and clicked the green button on the window to make chrome go into full screen. Then I tried to save a file to make the finder window open in chrome. When it opened in full screen I could see the bottom of the window so I resized it to make it a little smaller. Once I did this it remembered the size so now I can access the bottom buttons when I take it out of full screen mode. Hope this helps."
Worked like a charm!

Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Triple-click the following line on this page to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select

Big problems with slideshows

Hi, I've a big problem with iPhoto (and Aperture too, but I'll say later).
Two days ago I was creating a small slideshow (18 pictures) and everything was fine. Suddenly, while I was looking for a theme, switching between 3 of them, iPhoto stopped to work. No ESC, no key, I had to restart my iMac, turning it off.
From this moment every slideshow I select, iPhoto stop to work and need a force quit. So I restored a library, from Time machine, but nothing changed.
So I bought Aperture, but nothing changed, using iPhoto Library.
Now I've created an Aperture Library, importing in it my old iPhoto Library. Is there any way to "clean" iPhoto, reinstalling it from new? Do I need such a action?
Thank you and best regards.

That means that there is something in your account that's the culprit. First try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
or with Lion and Mt. Lion from the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE 1: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
NOTE 2: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
If that fails it might be another preference file that's causing the problem. Here's how to test for that:
Trouble Shooting Preferences
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
1 - close all applications.
2 - open your Home/Library folder and Option-drag (copy) the Preferences folder to the Desktop.
3 - select the contents of your Home/Library/Preferences folder and drag them into the Trash bin in the Dock. You will be asked to provide your Admin password.
4 - reboot.
5 - run the application again and determine if the problems is fixed
6 - If the problem is fixed:
A - open the working Home/Library/Preferences folder.
B - Open the Preferences folder on the Desktop, select all of the contents and drag them into the working Home/Library/Preferences folder.
C - When the Copy window pops up check the "Apply to All" check box and then click on the Don't Replace or Skip button.
D - reboot.
7 - If the problem is NOT fixed, drag the contents of the Preference folder on the Desktop into the Home/Library/Preference folder and replace the entire contents that were created by clicking on Replace.
8 - reboot.

Having big problems with Creative Zen Micro Photo!! I need much urgent help!

Hi. I am having a big problem with my MP3 Creative Zen Micro Photo device at the computer.Here is the thing:Before I bought this I had the regular Zen Micro & having fun with it. I had no problems with that when I used the Media Explorer to transfer songs. So I bought the Zen Micro Photo & installed it my computer. As normal I used the Media Explorer to transfer songs & pictures.So I reinstalled Windows XP at my computer, and when I installed the CD that followed to transfer new songs, the Windows said that it's an unknown thing I have connected in the USB.So I installed Service Pack & 2. I have tried to install drivers from the cd but it seems that there are no drivers on the cd! The big problem is that when I connect the MP3 to the computer, it doesn't read it's a Zen Micro, it's just unknown! So the Zen Micro Photo Media Explorer program doesn't work & I can't transfer songs or picture on it! And it just happened after I re-installed Windows on my computer. The same thing happened on my brother's computer after he re-installed windows. And when I connect the MP3 to the USB, it says that it's not a USB 2.0, but .! And I am sure it is 2.0 because it has always been like that before I re-installed windows. Also the MP3 does not re-charge when I put it my computer! The battery is just the same, it tries to do it but it doesn't. So I am using my sisters computer to charge the MP3 & transfer songs. I have tried everything but I can't seem to understand what the problem is? I have never experienced something like this before, and I really hope you can help me with this! To be honest I think what I am missing is the driver. So can someone PLEASE provide me the link for the driver? I have downloaded all those 3 on www.creative.com, but they are none of them! Also that playforsure firmawre thingy does not work because it sais that I have to connect my MP3, and it is connected already!Please reply as quick as possible! Thanks a lot for you kind help!
I have also sent this mail to creative support! But please help me I have had this problem for almost 2 months now! =(Message Edited by anakwalajinn on 05-0-2006 08:47 PM

Big problem with Airport Extreme and Vivax Provider in Brazil

Hello guys.
I live in Brazil and I bought my Airport Extreme in a recent trip to USA.
For some years I was a client of Telefonica and had an ADSL link, I had a D'Link G604T to do both the modem and router operation in the same box. I was happy with my connection of 1Mbps.
In a recent promotion of Vivax I switched to a cable connection to have both TV and Internet at the same operator, my link now has 3Mbps.
With this pack I also received free one RCA cable modem model DCM425B, it was installed fine in one computer only. Everything was fine my connection was faster the old one.
So I went to install the Airport Extreme to make things even better.
After I installed I went to see the web status of my modem, all parts were looking fine, but the modem could not see the computer. Bad sign.
I talked to Vivax support people and apparently it was a problem with their network setup and they manage to make it right. My model now sees my computer.
After that problem was solved I could not make AE to work with the modem, it had the green light and the setup looked fine, but I could not open any site. I tried to turn off my modem and AE, waited some minutes and turned on first my modem and after it was up I turned on AE. All lights looked fine but again no connection to any site.
I called again the Vivax support center and they tried to help me but the don't know AE and they could not help me with all the details but said there was 2 10.x.x.x coming from my side. So I tried to use in bridge mode. I also selected the 192.x.x.x range instead of 10.x.x.x as default.
After many setups and turn off and on again my connection is working but I have a big problem with wireless. If I turn it on I loose my connection, it seems that AE sends 2 equal ethernet address to Vivax and their network don't like it cutting me off.
So my connection setup is like this:
RCA Cable modem model DCM425B at 3Mbps using a 200.x.x.x ip
Airport Extreme connected to a Mac and a Windows PC by wire using the 192.x.x.x range ip
Wireless is off
Bridge mode is on
This the only way I could make it work.

After a firmware update it worked fine.

Big problem with a select using remote database

Hi Guy.
I have a big problem with a simple query, but this is a scenario.
Actuallly I'm in Alexandria - Egypt with a server with Oracle 10.2.0.4 database 32 bit on linux Red Hat as 4.8. the server can connect to another database oracle but 9.2.0.6 installed on Red Hat As 4.5 placed in Milano Italy . Ttwo networks are connected via two adsl cisco router with firewall and Vpn functions. In Egypt there isn't a very good adsl.
In Alexandria, I'm trying to connect to database in Italy with sqlplus. The sqlplus connected I write.. select * from addetti and all work fine.
My problem is that when I try to make the same select on a table with many columns oracle database kill me a session.
My table (ic_lav) is long 174 colums 1924 byte for row. Well when I write a query with select * from ic_lav all oracle close my session.
So I began to change my query I start to
select field1 from ic_lav... and work
select field1,field2,field3,..........field50 from ic_lav and work
select field1,field2,field3,..........field70 from ic_lav and doesn't work
the select work with 68 columns
problem: the query with more then 1064 byte for row doesn't work.
I've tryed with anoter big table with the same problem, but the select fwork with 65 columns...
Iit is obvious that there is any problem with the limit of the query.
The same query (select * from ic_lav) in localMilano)l work fine.
The same query (select * from ic_lav) in vpn with a better adsl line and openvpn software (NO CISCO firewall) WORK FINE.
The same query connectetd in Milano with a vpn make with analogic modem and remote access by windows work fine.
the query (make on my laptop connectet with vpn by cisco doesn't work.
In cisco firewall we haven't any error (cisco man tell me so)
on database 9 I found :
*** 2009-06-12 09:49:45.509
*** SESSION ID:(66.44406) 2009-06-12 09:49:45.497
FATAL ERROR IN TWO-TASK SERVER: error = 12152
*** 2009-06-12 09:49:45.509
ksedmp: internal or fatal error
Current SQL statement for this session:
select * from ic_lis where ditta
----- Call Stack Trace -----
but I don't understand why the lost connection problem (bug 3816595 A processstate dump is produced for a lost connection (12152) ) is caused by len of row
Anybody have some idea ?
Thank you

My table (ic_lav) is long 174 colums 1924 byte for row. Well when I write a query with select * from ic_lav all oracle close my session.Do you get any error?
If the query length is a problem, you could create a view and query the view instead to see if this problem is resolved.

Hi
I've a big problem with adobe acrobat reader XI pro and I hope you can help me.
The problem is; when I past copied text from some pdf books (not all of them) it past symbols only! wherever I past it! and even if I coped that text from another pdf reader (adobe pdf reader, internet browsers, ...etc.).
This problem started to happen since yesterday when I installed adobe acrobat reader XI pro to try it before I buy it, and before that when I was using the free adobe pdf reader I was totally able to copy any text from any pdf and past it anywhere with nothing wrong.
What can I do?
thank you a lot.

There is no product called Adobe Acrobat Reader Pro. There is
- Adobe Acrobat Pro ($$)
- Adobe Reader (free)
Which do you have? And are you a programmer?
