Can't find my chat history

Hi all, I've looked it up and found numerous threads on this issue but still can't figure out my personal problem..
I'm looking to transfer skype chat history; videos, chat, etc, from my grandparents in India, to a drive for safekeeping. My parents use my skype to talk to them a lot and they want me to keep all of their messages and/or videos in a drive.  In order to do this, I need to find the chat history..
I've looked through the "C:\Users\<windows_8_username>\AppData\Local\Packages
\Microsoft.SkypeApp\Localstate\<skype_name>"  thing I found online.  But for my computer, it stops at \appdata\local  or even \appdata\roaming.  There is no further directory inside those two files (Local/Roaming).
Why is that?  I use skype all the time; for family and friends.  Why can't I find the file log (main.db). 
Thank you
Version is 6.14.0.104
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Go to Windows Start and in the Search/Run box type %appdata%\skype and press Enter or the OK button. This will open a window with a Skype folder. Within this folder locate a subfolder with name corresponding to your Skype name. The main.db file is located in this folder.

    I downloaded the latest Facebook app ugrade to my iPad 2, and nowhere can i find the chat option. I also downloaded it to my iPhone4 and the chat option is there. Can somebody help me?

    The first thing that has to be done with a new iPad is to activate it via iTunes. What version of iTunes, and what spec computer, have you got ? The iPad's minimum requirements are (from http://www.apple.com/ipad/specs/)  :
    Mac :
    Mac computer with USB 2.0 port
    Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later
    iTunes 10.2 or later recommended
    (free download from www.itunes.com/download)
    iTunes Store account
    Internet access
    PC :
    PC with USB 2.0 port
    Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later
    iTunes 10.2 or later recommended
    (free download from www.itunes.com/download)
    iTunes Store account
    Internet access

  • HT1414 Can what's app chat history be backed up, and then restored in another iPhone?  How?

    Can what's app chat history be transferred from iPhone 4 to iPhone 5?  How?

    Was the iPad originally set up on a different computer, and hasn't been synced to the one that you are now trying to use ? There are some instructions on this page for syncing to a new computer : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141
    (Before trying that you could copy any important files/documents off the iPad so that you have you own backup copy of them e.g. depending upon what the apps support then email them to yourself, use Dropbox, copy them to your computer via your wifi-network.)
    You should be able to copy iTunes purchases off the iPad and over to that computer's iTunes via File > Devices  Transfer Purchases, but if you have music from other sources (e.g. copied from CDs) which aren't in that computer's iTunes (and you haven't got a backup to copy them onto it from) then there are some programs listed half-way down this page which should be able to copy them back : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    For recovery mode, that will result in your iPad being put back to factory defaults i.e. all of your content will be removed from it

  • 1.can't find live chat 2. Firefox recommends updating, but I can't find entrance to the sequence to do this

    I have scrolled thru all the Firefox pages I can fine...nowhere can I find where to access live chat.
    Also have a message my Firefox version is outdated...but I can't find where to install a newer version

    There is no live chat anymore, it was stopped for now to increase emphasis on the forums.
    To update Firefox, you will simply need to click on Help on the menu bar on the top of your screen (Where it says File, Edit, View, etc), then go to "About Firefox". Then click "Apply Update" after it finishes downloading. Your Firefox will restart, and you'll be up to date :)
    read [[Updating Firefox]] for more information.

  • I am having difficulties importing files into Thunderbird. Where can I find live chat supprt?

    Before one of my email accounts closed, I saved all of the material from that email account to a sub-folder I created under Local Folders, and saved all of the information as .msf files to my computer. Now when I open Thunderbird, all of the material from the former email account that I saved to the folder is no longer there.
    More importantly, this is a complicated problem that requires more than one answer. Does Mozilla offer Live Chat support, and where can I find it?

    christ1 -The reason I didn't provide more info is because I saved these files to Thunderbird over a year ago, and this problem just came up recently, so quite frankly, I don't remember all the steps I took to save the files at the time. Also, this one-question-at-a-time type of post-and-respond takes hours, and doesn't allow me to check things as I go along in real time.
    Secondly, the main other reason I posted here was to see if Live Chat or any other form of actual '''in person''' support was available. This problem is complicated since we're talking about two different computers, and I've done about all I can on my own. It seems that Live Chat has been cancelled, as James mentioned, so I'm totally stuck without any way to get the files that are missing. Again, I am totally flabbergasted that a company as big as Mozilla seems to be completely unreachable and unaccountable to its users, truly unbelievable.

  • Where can I find android version history on desktop version?

    Hi!
    Thank you for your great effort to bring the Firefox Sync.
    On my Firefox for Desktop (v30.0), I cannot find the browsing history of my Android device, which is running the Firefox for Android (v30.0).
    On the other hand, I can find the browsing history of Firefox for Desktop on my Firefox for Android.
    Please kindly show me where I can find the Android history on Desktop.
    Or you can implement this feature.
    Thanks a lot.

  • Upgrade to 3.6.8 deleted my History on close. Have undeleted yesterdays files, can i find and restore history to profile folder?

    Apparently the "clear recent history on close" option was enabled on the 3.6.8 upgrade. Didn't see that coming.
    I've undeleted yesterday's deleted files and saved them to a separate drive.
    Can I copy or restore the "recovered" history file back into my profile folder?
    If so, can you tell me the ''file name(s)'' that contains browsing history?

    If you updated from Firefox 2.0.0.20 then you need history.dat.<br />
    That file was used in Firefox 2. to store the history, Firefox 3 uses places.sqlite.<br />
    If you have used Firefox 3 versions in the past then may already have had a file places.sqlite in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and in that case you need to delete places.sqlite to make Firefox import the history from history.dat and the bookmarks from bookmarks.html.
