Cannot change group chat image

Version: 6.16.0.105
When I start a group chat, I can no longer change the picture for that chat. On hover, there is no "change: option. However, when I navigate to older group chats, I can still update the photo.
Ideas for what is happening?

Group chat pictures are not displayed and cannot be changed in Skype 6.21.64.104 or 6.21.85.104 (preview) Windows version:
http://community.skype.com/t5/Windows-desktop-client/Feedback-on-Skype-6-21-85-104-preview-for-Windo...
You can uninstall the special 6.21.64.104 version (with new user interface) and install the regular 6.21.0.104 version where the profile pictures are displayed:

In the case of new (cloud-based) group chats, the group picture cannot be changed in any current Skype Windows version.

Cannot change Desktop Background image

When I go to change my Desktop Background, it will try and load up the pictures in my Pictures folder (but no subfolders). I can switch my background to one of these images, even though the "Loading" progress bar is still visible.
Here is the odd thing, however. If I click on any of the other types of images (Apple Images, nature, Plants, Black & White, Abstract, and Solid Colors), nothing appears. I jumped over to another user on the same computer, and those images populated properly. Any ideas on what is going wrong? Why can't I change my background image? I've had this problem with both Mac OS 10.5.0 and 10.5.1.

I managed to fix this problem.
I did verify and repair permissions just for kicks. Not sure if that helped or not, but I did it anyway.
Then I went back into the System Pref pane, and clicked on Apple Images, then clicked on the Change Picture checkbox. While none of the images appear in the white box, my background did change to one of the Apple Images (such as the black and purple Leopard-only background). I then closed System Preferences, opened it back up, and the images loaded up properly this time!

Cannot change colors in Image

Hi All,
I really don't know any further in that problem, it can only be a small thing, but I don't come behind:
I'm creating a JPanel component with its own paingComponent method so that I can draw some things within that component:
JPanel p = new JPanel() {
               Image baseIm;
               public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
                    super.paintComponent(g);
                                Image im = createImage(getWidth()-10,getHeight()-10);
                                im.getGraphics().setColor(new Color(255,0,0));
                                im.getGraphics().drawLine(0,0,100,100); // as an example
                    g.drawImage(im,5,5,this);
          };This always produces me a line, but in black color instead of red!
I tried it also with setColor(Color.RED), and with fillRect, but it is everytime the same: Every color I set to the Image's Graphics component is interpreted as black.
Setting the color directly on the JPanel's Graphics class is working fine, but this is not that what I want.
Has anyone an idea?
thanks in advance
alex,

the "getGraphics" method creates a new graphics object and disposes of the old one. So when you call "getGraphics" make sure to retain the Graphics object returned and use it until you're finished.
On another note, you should probably not create a new image within the paintComponent method every time, just once, like this:JPanel p = new JPanel() {
               Image baseIm;
               public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
                    super.paintComponent(g);
                    if (baseIm == null)
                         baseIm = createImage(getWidth()-10,getHeight()-10);
                    Graphics gImage = baseIm.getGraphics();
                                gImage.setColor(new Color(255,0,0));
                                gImage.drawLine(0,0,100,100); // as an example
                    g.drawImage(im,5,5,this);
          };

Can't see group chat picture on Version 6.22.0.10...

Changing group chat picture in version 6.22.0.107 of Skype, participants are not able to see the picture.
Has anyone experience this?

Cannot Call Groups or Message?

There is no calling sounds and my group messages are unable to be read. This is a big issue because I cannot communicate with my contacts :/

What version of Skype are you using? Goto help >about Skype.
I'f you are using version 2.21 or below, uppgrade to the newest, if you are using 6.22 or above, downgrade to 6.21 found here:
http://download.skype.com/msi/SkypeSetup_6.21.0.104.msi
This is an attempt on a short answer, based on that Skype changed group chats in v 6.22 to cloudbased chats (eg type /get name in the groupchat, if it starts with 19: it's a new cloud chat, if it starts with #skypename it's an old p2p. (And new versions may have issues.)

Changing size of image in ACR mode

Have just bought Elements 12. When editing image in raw mode I cannot change size of image using ALT in combination with the mouse scroll button like I could in Elements 8. Clicking plus and minus signs is clumsy and slower

I believe that was removed in acr starting with the late 6.x or 7.x series and not sure why.
One way to zoom quicker with the zoom in (plus) is to drag a box on the image, although that doesn't work for zooming out (minus).
You can also right click on the image to get a menu with different zoom values (viewing percents).

OSX Mountain Lion - Cannot change desktop image

I used an image I'd downloaded as desktop wallpaper. I have tried to change it to the default image, other images, sold colours, but the same image always returns after I reboot (warm and cold boots). Note that I can change the desktop image, but it always reverts back to the old image. The changes do not stick. I cannot locate the image in Finder. Any ideas?

I have the same situation as Marc; however, I do not have access to images. The multicolor circle keeps turning.
This application (Desktop & Screen Saver) is not working anymore.
Thank you.

Downloaded a trial version of the "Living Earth Desktop" screensaver and cannot get rid of it. I deleted the download and cannot find it anywhere else on my mac. I will change the desktop image and the living earth image will pop back up minutes later.

Downloaded a trial version of the "Living Earth Desktop" screensaver and cannot get rid of it. I deleted the download and cannot find it anywhere else on my mac. I will change the desktop image and the living earth image will pop back up minutes later. Does anyone know how I can make this image stop taking over my desktop? Thanks!

This is the website.

IF you know the exact file name of the download, you can search for it in the spotlight.
(This icon) in the upper right corner.
If you don't know the exact file name, you may have to redownload it so you can see it.
I would also try doing a reboot after you change your desktop background to what you want.

Cannot change BBM group details/setting, on BES

Hi All,
I'm newbie forgive if I wrongly put this question in this thread..
After updating to latest asia firmware (666), suddenly I cannot change BBM group detail on my torch (9800). Therefore, now I always get unwanted notification/update from new group that I recently join.
I am on BES, using a provider in Indonesia.
Any solution for this? I just want to turn off group notification..
Many thanks

Hmm... still no answer? Is it too specific?

Lync Response Group Manager - cannot change opening hours

Hi all
I've run into an odd problem with Lync Response Groups with Lync 2013 Server. Just wondering if anyone has seen this before or knows of a solution. I've searched around but can't find any reference to this particular problem.
Response supervisors who are defined in the workflow and are a member of the AD group CSResponseGroupManager cannot change working hours for their response group from a custom schedule to a preset in the web interface.
If the workflow is already set to preset they can switch between existing presets, and they can switch from preset to custom. But once it has been set to custom they cannot change it back to preset.
They can select to do so but when they click Save they receive an error on the page saying "The term 'Remove-CsRgsHoursOfBusiness' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name,
or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again."
I don't believe this is by design, why would you want a workflow manager to be able to switch between presets or to custom but not back again?
If they are a member of CSResponseGroupAdministrator this works, however this is not really a solution as members of this group can edit all workflows and we don't want the managers of a workflow for one department able to access the workflows of another.
Any information greatly appreciated.

Hi
I had to abondon working on this for a while as we only had 1 Response Group in place, it wasn't too much hassle for me to do these changes myself.
However we now have about 6 Response Groups. All are managed and have a user listed as manager in the workflow, that user is also in the CSResponseGroupManager AD user group.
As previously described they can change the opening hours from between existing presets, and from preset to custom, but attempting to change back to preset from custom causes the error given previously.
This does not occur if the user is a member of CSResponseGroupAdministrator, however putting our Response Group managers in this group is not appropriate as it gives them access to all Response Groups not just their own.
Is it possible the error is due to the fact that the CSResponseGroupManager group is not giving them permission to the Remove-CSRGSHoursofBusiness cmdlet, I think PowerShell tells you a cmdlet doesn't exist if you don't have permissions to use it?

Logic error: "Image size error [...] too large" when setting a group chat picture *UNDER* 512px

Skype version: 4.3.0.37 on Arch LinuxI'm able to set a group chat's image to this image (513x513px, 60240bytes), but as soon as I crop it to something smaller, like this image (512x512px, 59544bytes), it gives me the following error message:even though the image is actually smaller than before. So the error message shows up for images that are of size less than or equal to 512px, giving a misleading information saying that the image is too big while the actual code is restricting it to a minimum of 513px. Edit: Also, there's a bug with the community. In making this post, I used my website to host the images, but then the forums automatically replaced every instance of my Skype username with "[Removed for privacy]", including in the link tags. So the links were mutated into "http://[Removed for privacy].me/misc/skypebug/513x513.jpg" etc.

Yes this is a real pain. I'm using v 4.3.0.37 with Fedora having the same issue. This seems not due to te image dimensions.If anyone found a workround?

Cannot change desktop image

Yeah. I changed it before by going under the apple (top, left), clicking system prefs, and then going clicking 'desktop images and screen saver.' But now I can't change my desktop image because when I attempt that process of clicking the apple and clicking system prefs and then clicking-what should be there but isn't-the desktop and screen savor icon, which is plaining missing. Its on my girlfriend's mac. I don't know what went wrong.
Anyone know what happened to that sweet, sweet icon? I'll really appreciate anyone, who could help fix the problem for me. Thanks!

Use Pacifist to extract a new copy of the DesktopScreenEffectsPref.prefPane from your Mac OS X 10.3 installation disks, and then run the combo updater for your version of Mac OS X.

Creator cannot edit or remove posts in group chat ...

I am the creator of a very active group chat on Skype. When I upgraded to 6.3.0.582, I lost my ability to edit or remove other users' posts. The options are simply gone.
When I rolled back to an earlier version of Skype for Mac (6.0.0.2946), the edit and remove options return. I am also still able to edit and remove posts in Windows (6.1.0.129), so this seems to be a bug unique to Skype 6.3.0.582 for Mac, and not a problem with the group settings.

I was specifically looking for a way to chat with a group of people AND eliminate the possibility of bad posts and pirates etc. I wanted 1. to be able to remove a person from the chat, and 2. to be able to delete or remove a post if needed from the chat.
In my opinion, these two functions are necessary to run a group smoothly. Otherwise, it is too risky! So now where do we go? FB....we closed down our chat for this very reason. To have more control over the chat. We came to Skype. But alas, they are not any more helpful. Maybe it is because the government wants to spy on us. So we can't go back and destroy evidence! That is the ONLY reason that would make this decison by Skype make sense. Otherwise it makes absolutely NO SENSE at all, especially if they once had both of these features and not took them away!!!
But that leaves us without the functions we need. : (
