"Can't connect to Skype." message using iPhone 3G,...

Howdy, y'all,
I don't use my iPhone 3G as a phone, but occasionally for web browsing and Skype calls. Since I installed Skype several months ago using iFunBox, it's worked adequately for voice calls via Wi-Fi. Today when I started Skype, configured for automatic sign-in, it signed in correctly and showed my contacts. Then the app quit.
Now I can't sign in even when providing my user ID and password for each attempt to run Skype. Skype on my laptop works as expected using my credentials.
Is the Skype server no longer accepting connection requests from iOS client 3.7.4?
Thanks much.
Solved!

After searching the Support pages, I discovered that Skype for iOS 4 or earlier is no longer supported:
https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA34493/is-skype-for-ios-being-discontinued-on-ios-4-and-below
If you a using Skype 3.x on iOS 4 or earlier, you'll have to upgrade iOS (if you have an iPhone 3GS or later) or, if you're using an iPhone 3G, you'll hafta find some kind of hack to install a version of iOS later than 4.x.

    Thanks for replying. The plan you have it would be an additional charge to add the hotspot feature. It's not free with the Nationwide plan. You would need to add the feature online at www.verizonwireless.com/myverizon

  • I can´t connect to iMessage in my iPhone

    I can´t connect to iMessage in my iPhone.
    When I try to connect via Settings/Messages/iMessage, it informs "An error ocurred during activation. Try again"
    If I try to connect using my Apple ID after some seconds displays a message that says "iMessage Activation. Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again." while i´m connected to WIFI at that moment.
    My current status Settings/Messages/iMessage when I activate i Message is "Waiting for activation...".
    Anybody knows how to solve this.
    Thanks in advance!

    Anthony I tried this, to connect using my Apple ID and after some seconds displays a message that says "iMessage Activation. Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again." while i´m connected to WIFI at that moment.

  • Can't connect to skype "unable to connect to ser...

    I can't connect to skype from my MacBook:   "unable to conect to server"
    help!

    Not quite sure why I have to go through a community registration process just to post a comment to help another Skype user but there it is.
    In my experience this message is very poor user feedback from Skype, becuase what it actually means is "your version of Skype is out of date, and you can't connect until you update to the latest version." So try updating.
    This is painful when you use it to stay in touch with family on the other side of the world because you waste your wondow to communicate doing IT support for your relatives just to get it to work - updates are way too frequent. It seems like a severe product failure to me to not even allow login, and not tell us why.

    I've not tried it, but it should work - Personal hotspot wifi should use WPA2 Personal encryption and g or n speeds.

    Not sure if iPhone would work as a router to connect several devices eg computer via wifi to allow itunes content on computer to stream to appletv.
    I've used a mifi 3G device to accomplish this kind of thing in the past.

    Hey there arunvdi,
    It sounds like you are unable to connect to the Wi-Fi created by your Personal Hotspot. I recommend these troubleshooting steps from the article named:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Personal Hotspot
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2756
    Try disabling and reenabling Personal Hotspot from Settings > Personal Hotspot or Settings > General > Cellular > Personal Hotspot.
    Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Wi-Fi troubleshooting
    If you encounter an issue using Personal Hotspot with other Wi-Fi devices, try the following:
    Turn Personal Hotspot off.
    Verify Wi-Fi is on in Settings > Wi-Fi.
    Turn Personal Hotspot back on.
    If another device is unable to join your Wi-Fi network, ensure that the user enters the Wi-Fi password correctly. If the device cannot see your Wi-Fi network, verify your device name.
    Note: Windows may not properly display a device name that uses non-ASCII characters.
    Verify how many devices are currently using your Personal Hotspot. Depending on your wireless carrier and, the maximum number of Wi-Fi connections may be limited to three at one time.
    If the other device still cannot connect, try turning Wi-Fi off and on again on the device. Verify that your device can see other Wi-Fi networks.
    Note: If you see an "Unable to Join" or timeout error when trying to connect a device using Wi-Fi, ensure that you remain on the Personal Hotspot screen until the first device connects. After a device has connected, you can leave the Personal Hotspot screen and use your phone normally. Your device will automatically stop broadcasting using Wi-Fi if you put your device to sleep or after 90 seconds elapse with no devices connected using Wi-Fi. You can start broadcasting your Wi-Fi network again by tapping Settings > Personal Hotspot.
    If none of the previous steps resolves your issue, restore the iPhone.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Regards,
    Sterling

  • My X61 can't connect wireless when i use battery!!!

    TYPE NO.:  7673-AN6
    i confused why it can not connect wireless when i use battery?!
    the problem drive me crazy nearly, it means i must take adapter every time
    i help every one can help me!
    cheers,

    Most of the functionality and problems are in the drivers. The hardware tends to be discrete testable functions though these days there is a fair bit of functionality in the hardware. The hardware tends to be implementing better defined protocols where as the to and fro of the higher level protocols tend to be what varies from Access Point to Access Point. The 4965AGN is a fairly recent chip set and the drivers are far from smoothly running.
    The problems can vary from AP to AP so may work at home but not at work etc. Some have reported here that the 4965AGN setup doesn't work with the Cisco 1200 Access Point and I have yet to be able to get it to work under Vista with the equipment at any New York Starbucks. T-mobile do use Cisco equipment but I don't know which models.
    Anything you can do to simplify the situation helps. Maximum power. No security. Disable IPv6 on the connection etc. Just to give a rough idea of the kind of thing that might be wrong here are some of the things listed as known issues or fixed according to the readme of the driver (Originating from Intel) that was released for the 4965AGN on 4/11/08.
    There are several authentication issues with EAP, PEAP and LEAP which will cause it not to authenticate. There are also Vista EAP issues and some things which may resolve with SP1 which was pushed out on update last week. So there are many comnbinations of situations which may not work and it is important to test with different access points. Authentication and security has more issues. Also at the higher speeds such as 54Mb some of the security mechanisms will not be able to keep up. AES is the only mechanism which Intel expects to work at 54Mb.
    http://downloadmirror.intel.com/15806/ENG/relnotes.htm
    There have also been past issues where the cards are silenced for twenty minutes after a failure to authenticate and in many cases the card will not be in a valid state after hibernation. It is noticable that when you phone T-mobile the first thing the tech has you do is completely shut the machine down - not hibernate - and begin afresh.
    Once you have uninstalled and re-installed the drivers and connection manager a few times it is also possible to be having problems with junk left in the registry.
    I don't recommend adding the 4965 drivers directly from the Intel site. I would wait for the one that has come through the Lenovo testing cycle.
    In reality for those who don't want to make maintaining their laptop a serious hobby (Hopefully all of us - Far too much time is wasted on wireless) it is really a matter of rebooting your machine at a given access point. Trying your luck and then shutting it down and going somewhere else if it doesn't work. Use wires when you can. At home if your access point doesn't work check your configuratiions, temporarily remove all security, restore factory settings on the AP, reinstall from scratch and if it still doesn't work replace it with a different brand of Access Point.
    Of course it is intended to just work and for 95+% of situations Wi-Fi does. The 4965AGN is newer so it has its fair share of early life issues to get resolved. Vista also still has issues. If the problem you are seeing is only when you are on batteries you are lucky and LANOgre's instructions may well solve it.

  • How to connect to desktop mac using iPhone. File sharing, ScreenSharing???

    If by it you mean Mocha VNC, that is how it works. You can connect when you are not on your network but you will have to enable forwarding on you router if you have one.
    What is it tha you want to do remotly?
    This world of remote management is that of the IT tech. Mocha is for techs and people that get the technology they are using or are interested in getting it. It is not plug and play stuff. You have to be willing to learn a bit and then with that comes a lot of power.
    If you just want to turn it on and have it work anywhere you won't find that. The reason ports are blocked form the internet is to protect your computers from someone else doing exactly what you are trying.
    So if you want you can enable port forwarding for port 5900 on your router. The IP address VNC Mocha will need is now the IP address of your router. Create a second connection on the list in Mocha for this connection as it is different than the one that will work on your network. Your router will forward anything on that port to you computer. I have successfully done this. It isn't very fast i will say. The screen refresh is very slow. You need patience to get anything done. I needed a file from a PC i had at home. It took about 15 minutes to get that file moved on to my iDisk through running Firefox on the PC from several towns away using Mocha. I might have been on a slow internet connection too.
