Can't connect to Skype

Was on skype for 2 years and then dropped. Can't get on now. Error message is that Safari can't connect to the server login.skype.com
I would prefer using Explorer but have Safari on my unit and Safari works with other sites. I have deleted and reinstalled the software. I am interested in video conferencing.
Thank you for any assistance you can provide.

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this message is very poor user feedback from Skype, becuase what it actually means is "your version of Skype is out of date, and you can't connect until you update to the latest version."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.

Can't Connect To Skype Server

Currently trying to connect to skype and I get stuck on signing in, and it attempts this for a while until it eventually will tell me skype can't connect. I have upgraded to the latest version of skype and I don't have an active firewall, can anyone help?

Try the following: Reset Skype policies/proxieshttp://www.pcdust.com/Downloads/PolicyFix/PolicyFix.exe To reset your Skype local configuration (doesn't affect history) check "add shared.xml" and click "Clear Skype names". Make sure Skype is not running when you do this.http://www.pcdust.com/Downloads/ListFix/ListFix.zip

Try this:
Go to Windows Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Right click on Command Prompt, select 'Run as administrator'.
The Command Prompt window should show:
C:\Windows\System32>
If this is not the case, then in the Command Prompt type: cd c:\windows\system32 and press Enter.
Type this and then press Enter:
regsvr32 jscript.dll
Next type this and press Enter:
regsvr32 jscript9.dll
After each Enter you should receive a message saying that DllRegisterServer in XXX.dll succeeded.
Reboot your computer.
Make now the test showing if your Internet Explorer can execute JavaScript.
Open in your Internet Explorer this page and watch the response:

IPad can't connect to Skype

"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!
Go to Solution.

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.

My account is suspended.
I followed skype's instructions, and tried Chat, and nothing happened.
I filled out the form on Online Resolution Center and sent it.
The answer received: "please contact us by live chat to help you resolve this issue"
Well, we are going in circles here. Can I get phone support or unlock chat feature?

Make sure you are using the latest version of Skype. Old versions might have connection issues.

Skype can't connect - most likely router problem, ...

Lately I can't connect to Skype at home. I've tried a lot of different solutions but none of them work.
The problem started a few months ago when I just couldn't sign into Skype (can't connect). At that time I had no change in any network settings on my computer nor my router. Interestingly enough, I could connect to Skype on Ubuntu (I have dualboot). Though even Ubuntu eventually failed to connect back then (just can't sign in) - still no changes in my network. I couldn't be bothered at the time with the problem so I just didn't use Skype.
However after some time (some weeks or a month or two), when I tried to connect to Skype again, it worked (on Win 7 as well as Ubuntu). Again, no changes to my network have been done in the mean time (Skype might of been updated, but I doubt it was on both platforms at the same time).
So Skype worked for a while until about a month ago, when the problem reoccurred. This time I said I'm going to get to the bottom of this so here is the situation:
I can connect to Skype at work no problem (on my desktop as well as my Android phone)
I can't connect to Skype at home (just won't sign in) on my desktop nor my phone
I have tried:
Reinstalling Skype with cleaning everything that Skype might have left behind
Installing an (a bit) older version 6.9 (because even the latest 6.11 didn't work). Though these two attempts I've come to see are in vain once I figured out that I can't connect to Skype on my phone as well.
Resetted my router a couple of times.
Reset my router settings to default.
Opened/forwarded Skype ports to my (local) IP. I even enabled DMZ to redirected all traffic to my desktop computer (although I'm not 100% sure that that worked as I imagine it should work).
Tried some proxy settings in Skype (Connection options) I found on your forum.
None of the above worked in any way...
My router is a TP-Link TL-WR1043ND with (I think the latest) firmware version 3.13.13 Build 130428 Rel.58290n (hardware is v1).
TLDR:
I can't sign in to Skype at home. It works when I'm at work. I can connect to Skype on my phone if I'm at work (over WiFi) or if I'm on 3G, but not if I'm on my home WiFi. That said, no software firewall can be the problem here, but my router. However I have no more ideas as to what else I can try. This forum is my last hope for finding a solution.
Please help.

I do not know the makeup of Skype's internal security policies when it comes to this as they are not too open about this. Most companies are not. These are the only reasons I believe a block would occur based off any company's security policy.
1. A proactive measure - A blacklist of IPs is constantly obtained/updated to include anonymizer services that might harm the network.
2. An active/counteractive measure -
I. Someone uses an anonymizer to SPAM people on the Skype network:
a. Users complain using the abuse option. Users get the IP Auto-banned.
b. The company (Skype) receives the complaints or notices a trend and Manual/Auto bans the IP.
II. Too many people (connections) sign on with the same IP (due to an exit relay/proxy). Due to this being very suspicious, (maybe even DDos-like behavior) the IP is Auto-banned.
I tend to lean more towards the counteractive measure since I don't believe many proactive measures are needed to limit abuse. There is always at least one rotten apple that engages in illegal activity using anonymizers, proxies, etc. that ruin it for everybody. In reality I believe it is a combination/balance of the two. Not to be prejudice against anonymizers, just blacklists to protect the network from known attacks. For whatever reason once the threshold is met, the IP is banned. If I had to guess how long it would be in intervals of 30 days (30, 60, 90, 120, etc.). The whole Internet is not going to banned so the security policies in effect can't be too strict. It's goal is probably just to limit the majority of bad behavior that causes problems for their customers.
Skype is not the only service that reacts this way. Even ISPs will receive notices and in turn will send notices to their customer that since illegal activity (RIAA notices, etc.) is occurring due to a Tor exit relay or some other anonymizer, the ISP will terminate services with that customer if they don't cease (due to breach of contract).
I don't know whether you can limit an exit relay so it can't be used to access Skype. It may be a lost cause. If I made the choice to run a similar service it would be with a whitelist of people I knew who wouldn't use it to perform illegal activity, just remain anonymous when online.
You shouldn't have any issues running a non exit relay since in doing so your IP is not being broadcast all over the Internet like a calling card which an exit relay does. Changing your modem's MAC address is something you need to call your ISP for. However changing your router's MAC address generally does not require that. All that is required is a reboot of the modem, router, and possibly computer if you run into issues. You will probably continue to run into the same problem as long as you attempt to run an exit relay.
Be aware that for every IP that get's banned on your ISP is another IP a person could get issued for 24 hours to a week + after it gets released. Some people then visit this community and complain how they can't connect when it worked not too long ago and how Skype "sucks". So sometimes things like this create a ripple effect for other customers.

Can't 'Connect As' when trying to remotely log in via Shared

Hi all,
I've got a bit of an odd question. I have a suite of 10x iMacs networked together. All the machines can see each other on the Finder 'Shared' sidebar, yet if I click one (so as to copy files etc from one machine to another) I just get the coloured pin wheel. I assume that the machine is trying to auto log in, but for some reason it won't. Clicking the 'Connect As' button to try and force a manual log in will not work. Because of this I can't share my files properly.
Anyone have any ideas? I'm sure this used to work and nothing has changed to the machines/network other than basic OSX updates.
Cheers!

Make sure:
1. Firewall/AntiVirus/Security software isn't blocking Skype from connecting.
2. No proxy settings exist in Skype's connection settings. This can reset that:
http://www.pcdust.com/Downloads/ListFix/ListFix.exe
3. No Windows policies exist with proxy settings. This can reset that: http://www.pcdust.com/Downloads/PolicyFix/PolicyFix.exe
4. Router isn't somehow blocking Skype.
5. Using an unsupported version of Skype. Currently any version below 6.14 can loose connectivity to Skype requiring an update to a newer version though this may change.

I can't connect to skype anymore. I read about the same problem others were having last December, but no one seemed to have any answers at that time
Does anyone else have the same problem or any solutions?

Thank you so much for your reply. Just want to let you know I received it and am trying to figure out what my firewall is. I looked at it yesterday and it seemed my option was to remove it and be left without the protection it provides, but I'm not sure. so I will re-check and get back to you...also might need to add the new version of Skype but I've read that some people lose Skype competely when the do that, so I'm confused. Seems it should be easier. Thanks, Suzannegg
