Can I make Skype quit automatically when I close i...

I'm sick of having to close it on the task bar and then confirm I don't want it running any more.
I've already confirmed I wanted to log out and close the program, why is it still running?
I cannot find an option to quit from the menu whilst running, but I imaging it's buried somewhere.
Could somebldy tell me how to either 'quit' automatically when I close the program, or if there is an option to close and quit while it's open?
Failing that could I find out why it's do ******* important that it stays running in the backlground after I close it the first time?

This screenshot (http://community.skype.com/t5/Windows-desktop-client/Can-I-make-Skype-quit-automatically-when-I-clos... is from the currently latest Skype 6.7.0.102 version, but exactly the same window is shown with any previous version too.
If you sign out of Skype before quitting, then the “Do not ask me again” option will not be shown. You don’t need to sign out before quitting!!!!

    Yeah, so there's definitely a problem here. It's FAR from intuitive. So like someone said, what you currently have to do is NOT sign out (which seems like the first thing anyone is likely to do when they're ready to quit), click on the task bar icon instead (!) and select an option from there that ISN'T AVAILABLE IN THE IN-PROGRAM MENU which is pretty unusual in itself, then remember to check the box for it not to DOUBLE-PROMPT FOR SOMETHING YOU HAD TO JUMP HOOPS in order to find in the first place. I can even say I get why they did it like that: it's supposed to have a personal setting for each user on the same computer but why couldn't I then personalize my skype to fully close when I click on the big red x that is USUALLY USED TO CLOSE THE PROGRAM THAT OPENED THE WINDOW. I kinda get why "sign out" is not the same as closing. I just now realized the minimize button and the close button do exactly the same thing... If this isn't taken seriously (I'm expecting the most convincing arguments here) I will just look for an alternative as soon as I can. It's hard because you guys have some sort of monopoly here and all my friends are on Skype too. I'll bet your managers know this extremely well.

  • How do I make labview quit completely when I close a project?

    So in the latest verson of Labview that I have (2012) Labview doesn't quit when you close a project or standalone VI.  Instead it opens up a Labview browser that shows recent projects, has links to find drivers, forums, etc.
    I want labview to quit when I close a project with the red X.  Is there a setting to do that, or do I have to close my project, wait for the Labview browser to finish reloading itself, then quit that?

    try this...as you press the "red X" , panel closes down with "quit LV" completly shutdown of application only if it is a "stand alone/run time engine" executable
    A better way here would be to use the Discard? input.  In the RUN_TIME_ENGINE == TRUE case, put in a FALSE constant and a TRUE in the default.  If there are no front panels open and there is no code running, the Run Time Engine will shut down.  It is a lot cleaner than the Quit LabVIEW function since you can close things down properly.
    But from the Dev Environment, CTRL+Q will quit LabVIEW.  Otherwise, just close the getting started window when it comes back up.  As was said, just because you close your project does not mean you are ready to close LabVIEW.

    Hi
    How much free space is there on Your Mac main Start-Up hard disk ? for
    • SD-video - I never go under 25Gb
    • HD-material used - I guess that x5 more would do.
    Even as DVD is as standard SD-Video it needs space to scale down HD and Mac OS needs lot's for it's temp. files.
    I do not "Finalize" or use "Share to iDVD" - but I do "Share to Media Browser" and as Large (not HD or other resolution as this will degrade the final result)

  • Can you make core center automatically close after being called on startup?

    Can you make core center automatically close after being called on startup so it can set cpu fan speed to a slower fixed speed then exit?
    If core center really cant do such a simple task then can speedfan or another program?

    Quote from: bassmadrigal on 13-July-05, 07:42:36
    Why don't you want them running. Speedfan has a very small footprint.
    Just seems unnecesary seeming as it does its task as soon as it runs and its changes then stay applied. Speed fan is probably better but core center takes 10mb.
    Quote from: syar2003 on 13-July-05, 07:57:02
    You dont have to have it running to set a user specified fan rpm .
    Once it's set it is stored in the corecell/cmos chip on the motherboard .(until a cmos reset) .
    So to answer your question .
    There is no need to have it autostarted at each boot ...
    Thats how i have used it .
    Only reason to have it running is with MSI's "CnQ" control of the fan , varies with the load of the processor
    Thats strange for me the speed resets to default as soon as I restart my pc (about when the bios engages which is however tangibly after the graphics card fan revves up to its full speed). Depending on the temperature of the proccessor it goes to 3300rpm (less than 42c) or 4500rpm (too loud for ~45c IMO and MSIs "cool&quiet" option seems to agree, it doesn't even set it as high as 3300rpm)

    My form has a list of yes or no questions.  I want to use either cheboxes or radio buttons.  Unfortunatly I can't make it work.  When I check yes for one question, it marks all yes answers for all other questions.  If I mark some radio buttons to answer, it unmarks later.  Need immediate help!!!

    Is it that you are using a PDF-based form? Did you copy and paste the Yes/No fields all the way down your form? If so, then all of the yes/no boxes are copies of each other and have the same name and properties in the PDF.
    For example, if you had:
         Question 1 and Question 1 Yes/No checkboxes
         Question 2 and Question 1 Yes/No checkboxes
         Question 3 and Question 1 Yes/No checkboxes
         Question 4 and Question 1 Yes/No checkboxes
    Then whatever answer you selected in Question 1 would populate down through the rest of the form.
    Changing the Yes/No field properties in questions two through four would eliminate the problem.
    I hope that helps,

  • In windows 7, how to make firefox start automatically when I turn on the computer

    In Windows 7, how to make Firefox start automatically when I turn on the computer. Note, I am asking how to do this with Windows 7, not xp, not vista.

    You need to place a shortcut to open Firefox in the Start > Programs > Startup folder.<br />
    That is basically the same in all Windows versions.

  • When I am connected to my home wifi, it says I am connected but the 4G icon doesn't go away.  How can I make that go away when I am connected?

    When I am connected to my home wifi, it says I am connected but the 4G icon doesn't go away.  How can I make that go away when I am connected?

    When I'm at my home, and on my Wifi, my 4G icon on my LG G2 is still present. No big deal. If the bits can flow via WiFi, that's what they'll do.
    You might try (if you really MUST shut off the cellular radio):
    Settings, Network Connections and More networks. Select Mobile Networks and uncheck Mobile data and data roaming.
    Not sure if that will work - but give it a try.

  • How can I make a survey automatically identify the user in the results?

    How can I make a survey automatically identify the user in the results (so that it won't be anonymous)?

    I am not sure what information to provide.  Here is what I am trying to do.  I am trying to create an HR questionnaire with multiple choice questions and several multiline textboxes to capture comments.  I want to send it out by email address and/or embed the questionnaire somewhere on the company's intranet website.  But we don't want the questionnaire to be anonymous. If someone makes a particular comment, we want to be able to communicate with the person who made that particular comment.  How would we be able to trace the person? By email address, or by user ID?

    In windows 7, how do I make firefox start automatically when I turn on the pc

    That worked, thanks. When I turn on the pc, I almost always go to the internet before anything else, so this eliminates one step. It doesn't seem to save any time, however, but it is easy. If anyone else wants to try this, it looks like it's very easy to undo if you change your mind.

  • My phone can't  make or receive calls when 3G is enabled

    Hello everyone, I just joined this forum because yesterday I started having a problem on my 2 months-old Iphone 4S.
    I can't make any calls, and when I try it beeps three times and I get a "Call Failed" message. People that try calling me get the same problem, but my Wi-Fi/3G was working fine.
    After doing a quick research on the internet and trying a bunch of things, (like: Turning Airplane Mode on and off, turning my phone on and off, resetting the Network Settings, loading the "Show My Caller ID" on Settings>Phone>Show my caller ID) I found a guy who was having a similar problem and "solved" it by disabling 3G on Settings>General>Network
    I tried it and it surprisingly worked, now I can only call or receive calls if my 3G is off (I found out I can still keep Wi-Fi on, though.)
    Does anyone know how to fix this problem? Does it seem like it's the carrier's or apple's fault?
    Thanks in advance,
    Rafael

    " I found a guy who was having a similar problem and "solved" it by disabling 3G on Settings>General>Network"
    there is no such thing in the iphone settings... i went to settings, general and theres nothing about "network" or 3G
    complete bullocks and still have the problem

    Hi,
    I gues you are using AS2.0, then use setInterval, in AS3.0 user Timer Class.
    AS2.0
    var interval:Number = setInterval(doThis,10000);//in milliseconds
    function doThis():Void{
    //do something;
    AS3.0
    var timer:Timer = new Timer(10000, 1);
    timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER_COMPLETE, onTimerCompleteHandler, false, 0, true )
    function onTimerCompleteHandler(event:TimerEvent):void{
    //do something;

    It's not clear why Apple made this change; speculation (which is not really allowed in these forums) is that it was done to protect the privacy of the caller.
