Computer crashes when receiving or initiating a voice call - Windows 7, Skype version 7.6
Whenever I either initiate a voice call or click to answer one, the system freezes and does not respond to anything short of a hard reset. I've tried the following steps without solving the problem:Reinstalling Skype (was 7.5, now 7.6)Updating video and sound driversDeleting Skype data files in the AppData foldersNone of these have helped. Running EventViewer does not yield an event corresponding to the crash at all - the first event after the time of the crash is a startup report that the system was not shut down correctly. If you can shed any light on this, I would be extremely grateful. I would happily attached the zipped DXDiag report but whenever I try I get the message "The attachment's DxDiag-Chera-2015-06-28.zip content type (unknown/unknown) does not match its file extension and has been removed."
Someone else in the Community had a similar issue. The problem was actually resolved by downgrading the drivers. There may be a bug, tweak or added Catalyst configuraiton that's causing the card to lockup. http://community.skype.com/t5/Windows-desktop-client/Skype-freezes-up-my-computer-when-I-hit-call-I-ve-tried-every/m-p/3195692/highlight/true#M266621 With the current drivers you can see if the issue is realted to AMD Overdrive: Under Catalyst Control Center, Performance, AMD OverDrive. If this option exists, try to disable it. If it's disabled you can try to enable it and lower or increase the settings to see if anything changes. If nothing changes you can try older releases below Catalyst 14.2 but not below Catalyst 12.3.

I recently got an iphone5. Ever since I have downloaded my iphone pictures to my photo gallery on my PC, my computer crashes when i'm in photo gallery. Any suggestions? I also downloaded itunes as well as icloud when I got my iphone5.
No, your iPhone and your iPad should not appear in the finder.
I'm not sure what you mean about downloading photos with iPhoto being double handling, but you can download direct to a folder with Image Capture. Image Capture can also be used to delete photos from the Camera Roll on the iPhone or iPad (preferrably after they are downloaded).
You can remove the photos you synced from your phone with iTunes by syncing again with an empty folder, That will delete all the photos that were previously synced that way, replacing them with the contents of the empty folder (that is, nothing). This will not effect photos takes with the camera on your iPhone. -
My computer crashes when I try to export from iMovie. What is the problem.
Why does my computer crash when I try to export it?
Does it happen with different iMovie projects or does it keep doing it with the same one? Might be a corrupt movie file.
Do you have iLife 11 on disc? If so you might try reinstalling iMovie and try it again, first without updating anything, and if that works then try updating and see if the problem comes back. It could also just be that iMovie is corrupt. -

While using the "Guided" edit for "Perfect Portait" every other tool works just fine, but when I go to do the "Spot Healing" it crashes. Weather I am in the "Guided" edit or to use it on it's own.

Go to Solution.Please, run the DirectX diagnostics tool (32-bit version).
Go to Windows Start and in the Run box type dxdiag.exe and press the OK button. This will start the DirectX diagnostics program. Run this diagnostics and save the results to a file. Please, attach this file to your post.

Initial video/voice call always fails
Hi,
Every time I intiate either video or voice call, I keep getting "calling" signal with no response. During that time I can't disconnect and forced to wait for applicaiton to disconnect call. Other party can't answer it. It also applies when I call landlines too...Running on Windows 8, Skype version 6.21.0.104. Tried to reinstall it and get the same problem. I don't have this problem when I run skype on my iphone. Please help! Thanks!shippo_uk,
I am having the same trouble but only when at home. After Apple changed my phone and the problem continued I looked in to other things and found that when WiFi is switched on in Settings I always have to redial, when Wifi is off it calls first time no problem.
Even though this only started since the 4.1 update, Apple are blaming my Sky Router which doesn't help.
Might this be the same problem for you? Did you get yours sorted? -
My computer crashed, when I try to re-sync my iPod I am having problems
Salutations! I am hoping that somebody can assist me in re-syncronizing my iPod library to the same computer after re-building it. My computer crashed due to a problem with the wireless adapter, I had to re-image the hard drive and when I try to load my iPod library back onto the computer, I receive a message stating that it is already synched to another computer (same computer - new image). Even though the dialogue box indicates that I should be able to transfer my library from my iPod to my computer, it doesn't allow me to transfer the entire contents of my library. The only other choice I have is to erase my iPod and restore it. I don't view this option as a viable solution, can anybody offer a workaround?
Welcome to Apple Discussions
Not sure how you found your way to the Safari forum, which is for Internet content and browsing, but you're best bet is to repost in the IPod for Windows forum. On this linked page, select the sub-forum specific to the type of iPod you are using. -

Computer crashes when trying to burn a cd in itunes
I have read many threads on this error 4280 but mine seems a little different. Every time I try and burn a cd from songs in my library something bad happens. I have had my computer crash several times. One time it crashed and then went into a scandisc mode. Once it crashed and then when my computer restarted everything that was supposed to load at startup had errors and wouldn't load. Yesterday, I tried to burn a cd again. This time I used only music that I had ripped from my own cd's through itunes. I have authorized my computer yet it said it wouldn't burn any of them because none of the songs were authorized? They are my songs, from my cd's! A few weeks ago I tried the same thing and it wouldn't burn the tracks because it said 2 of the tracks weren't authorized. Again, they were all ripped from my cd collection, not downloaded. I decided to restart my computer and try again. Same problem but this time it selected 2 different songs as the ones that weren't authorized. I am having serious issues with itunes crashing my computer. Anyone else have problems like this? I am using itunes 7.6?
Thanks,

Mail app crashes when receiving email from a particular sender
HI All,
Here is a problem I'm facing, Mail App crashes while receiving email from a particular sender. I'm testing our new Email Hosting solution "Rackspace" and it works fine with all other Email clients or on deveices (Android, Windows Phone & Blackbarry) but on Iphone 4s (IOS 6.1.4, i guess) it crashes the Mail App.
The email I'm using is sending over to an email at ttv-asia.com domain. The user of ttv-asia.com is based in China and just to see if the problem is with the Iphone, I've tested the Iphone's Mail App in Hong Kong and it works normal.
So now... Im confused and have no Idea on how ro fix this.

<Email Edited By Host>Sorted, it seems that livemail configured for exchange and having Google premier for exchange, results in the mail app on the iPhone crashing, when selecting an email in the Google exchange mail box, then calling up the folders , it crashes. switched off livemail mail, worked fine.
Weird.
