Change skype name without new account

HI  I want to change my skype name to make it the same as my internet link but when I read information it says you need a new account.  But my account is a paid international subscription.  Since it is a paid one, can I change my skype name.

Hi, Healthclan,
To clarify, a Skype account name cannot be changed once it is created.  This has always been Skype's policy.
Regards,
Elaine

  • Is it possible to change the name on an account?

    Hi,
    I live in a shared house and one of my housemates has just moved out. He was in charge of the Internet bill. This was with Virgin and they would not let him transfer the account over to somebody else. We are now looking for a new provider but we need this option. Many of us don't know how long we will be staying.
    So, is it possible to take out a BT contract with the option to change the account holder?
    Thanks.

    Hi tdm,
    Thats not possible if you take out a contract and someone else wants to takeover that line or be named as the account holder the service would have to be ceased in you name and the person wanting to be named/incharge would have to apply as a new customer,the only way to change a name on the account is bereavement this has to be immediate family.

    iTunes is updated and works fine and I am able to log onto my account. When I go to purchase a song, I get the error message "Your Apple ID has been disabled". I've tried different methods: changing passwords, making a new account with another email address, and emailing itunes tech support. I am curious as to how many others have been experiencing the same issue. When I googled the error, it seemed like it was happening extremely often with many people.
    We all love their products, but they always come with a lot of issues and horrible customer support.
    My apple Id is [email protected]

    My Iphone 4 is telling me the same thing and I believe I figured out what the problem is.  I had some fraudulent charges on my itunes account, so I call my bank and disputed the charges.  Right after I did that, I started getting the message "Your apple ID has been disabled."  I just realized today that the charges are not fraudulent, they are "in app purchases."  One of my daughters downloaded the game Top Girl which is FREE, but in the game Top Girl you use money in the game to purchase things.  It just so happens that the money you use to purchase things is real money MY Money!!!.  My daughter thought she was using play money in the game and had no idea she was using real money.  She spent $106.00 buying stuff.  Now I have to call the bank and tell them to release the hold and pay Itunes.  I'm hoping this solves the problem.  Here is the link to learn how to disable "in app purchase" on your iphone or ipad.

  • Changing Last Name on Mail accounts

    Recently remarried, and trying to change last name on Mail accounts.  I have changed them in Contacts, however seem to have problems in sending mail.
    Anyone have an idea of where I need to make all the changes?

    Mail apparently can do this, but doesn’t provide support for it in the user interface:
    Add unique names to .Mac email aliases
    Add unique names to .Mac aliases via AppleScript
    I believe the AppleScript in the second article is for .Mac accounts only. The first article was initially also meant for .Mac accounts only, but I believe that a similar procedure can be used with other account types as well — read the comments for additional info on this.
    What I’d probably do is leave the Full Name field blank and the email address alone, though...

  • Change administrator name without starting over.

    Hope someone can tell me how to change the administrator name and or delete the one that's in there that was cemented in the system when I got the computer and replace it with my name, without re-formating the drive and starting over. It's a G4 tower with 10.4.11. I have tried everything I can think of....
    Thanks! you Mac guru guys. I know someone knows how to do this...
    Bud

    I found a way to do this but it might be scary for a newbie. Open the accounts in system preferences and create a sub account with the name you want to use as the new administrator. Next check the new user to allow to administer the account and remove the check mark in the original administrator. Now open the library folder on the hard drive and find the preferences folder. Trash the com.apple.preferences.accounts.plist and reboot. The new name you created and authorized will now be the administrator. The original administrator will be deleted.
    The kicker is you will not be able to ever change the account settings. The accounts button will disappear in the system preferences. Also you may loose contact with some software as the system partially reverts back to default. DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK and don't do it without backing up important files first externally and also be sure you have the install disks for your software if you need to reinstall something. It worked for me but so far I have only done it once. I did loose Safari bookmarks and some other minor things, had to re-do mail preferences but it kept Adobe stuff ect. Lost MS Office. Had to re-install that. The original items are still on the computer somewhere but.....

  • Is it possible to change the name in my account?

    currently my dad is listed but i want to have my name in it.
    Cant find a option to change it anywhere
    greets

    Sorry, I'm not sure what "account" you're referring to. If you mean the Apple ID you're using, it would be better to set up a new one rather than trying to change the name on your father's Apple ID. If you really need to, though, go here:
    https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
    If that's not the account you're referring to, please clarify what it is you wish to change.

  • Changing short name- misplaced original account information

    I was attempting to change the short name on my user account with two methods- the terminal command (didn't prompt me for my password after changing the name) and the root account option. When I try to log back into my old user account it takes it back to the bare start up-when you start a new account I assume because I didn't reset the home folder. I seem to have misplaced the file that kept all the orgininal account information. I can search in the root account to access all the files, but I don't know how I can set up my original user account. In essence I want to compile all of the searchable data that I have in the root account back into one file that will allow me to set up my original account, but with a new user name.

  • Change Skype Name

    Hello,
    I just setup a skype account and it asked me to setup with a Microsoft account. So I created one with my email ([Removed for privacy]) and I was assigned a random skype name ([Removed for privacy]).
    I'd like to change it to my name. How do I do that?
    Thanks!

    You can't. When creating Skype account using the Microsoft account option you get automatically assigned a Skype name live:emailname (in your case live:contact) and this can't be changed. If you want to create another Skype account with a Skype name of your own choice, then you can do this using this signup form:

  • Changing Xraid name without unmounting the drives

    Hello all,
    I just took possession of a mac cluter with 3 - count 'em - three raids, all cleverly named "Xserve-raid". In order to make my life easier I would like to name them something distinguishable, if not distinguished. Is there a way to do this on the fly, without unmounting the disks (kicking off all of the users)? I can do it the bruteforce way, of course, but if RaidAdmin or someother app has a slicker way to do it, please make me privvy to it. Thank you!
    g5   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    No. There is no way you can change the name of the Xserve RAID within RAID admin without resetting the coprocessor and controller. Controller reset would cause LUNS to disappear and reappear to the host. There is a good chance the host would see data disruption.
    Your best bet would be to schedule a maintenance window.
    -Bruce
    ps* Even if someone tell you that you can do it with no disruption, would you change it during production hours? Probably not a good idea. Keep it simple, and safe.

  • CHGRDBDIRE change rdb name for new installation.

    In the installation guide, SAP advices us to change the *LOCAL relational database name to match the hostname.
    However, currently my system already has an  *LOCAL rdb name entry which follows the default machine/serial number name . The command using CHGRDBDIRE advised by SAP doesnt allow changing the name for *LOCAL entry.
    The only method to change the name is to delete the default *LOCAL rdb name and recreate a new *LOCAL entry. Is it safe do to so ? IT contains the objects the QGPL and QTEMP schema now.
