Facebook Find Friends and Skype

My skype account has somehow gotten linked to my facebook, so that when people who have me added on skype and then do a find friends through skype on facebook, my facebook profile shows up.
I do not want this.
I checked the apps in facebook and there was no skype app installed. Any idea how to remove this?

I only have Iphone can I use my PC with windows 7 to find friend and family ?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
No, you can't use the computer, you'll have to use the iPhone.

Find Friends app keeps saying "location not available" on iOS7?

After I updated my 4S to iOS 7, Find Friends will not actually find the person, it just pops up with "location not availble" everytime. I have tried restoring the phone, logging out then back in, and deleting the app then redownloading it and nothing has helped. The person I am trying to find says everything is working well on their end. Help!

My family has 5 iphone 5s's. Two of my kids and myself just upgraded from iOS6 to iOS7. Now, on my Find Friends app, their locations only say Location Not Available. However my wife and and my other child, still on iOS6, their locations immediately appear.
In talking with my two kids that are on iOS7, I have 100% confirmed that THE FIND FRIENDS APP MUST BE OPEN in order for their location to be found. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. Furthermore, my kids will not leave the Find Friends app open because it drains their batteries at an extremely fast rate. This is a new issue for iOS7.
By confirm I mean this. On a hunch I called them when their location said not available, and confirmed that their Find Friends app was closed. I asked them to launch their Find Friends app on their phones. I then checked my Find Friends, and suddenly their locations were visible. I then had them close their Find Friend app, and sure enough, my Find Friends immediately showed their location as Not Available.
THIS BEHAVIOR WAS NEVER PRESENT IN iOS6. NEVER!. I have also 100% confirmed that my wife's phone, beside me as as I type this, has all apps closed, including Find Friends. However her location immediately appears in my Find Friends list.
I certainly hope that Apple will fix this immediately. I bought the five iPhone 5s's over a year ago, almost exclusively because of the Find Friends app, so I could keep track of my kids. Never once did we have trouble with Find Friends. And the app did not consume much battery, even when it was open.

Location not available Find Friend error

Find Friend gives an error: "location not available" despite all efforts t fix it.
I deleated Find Friend and reloaded it.
I reset the iphone 5 and set it up as a new phone.
Both iphones 5 work for other FF entries.
What is wrong????
Any help would be appreciated.

Who's location is not available? If you are opening FF and it is showing a friend's location is not available, it would not be a problem for you?

Find Friends Notification - How are you notified?

Both my partner and I have I phone 4 and have downloaded i os 6. We have both got Find Friends and have accepted each other. He would like to know what time he is leaving work, so I don't phone until after he has left. I have set up notification and I am able to see when he leaves from the location, but do not appear to get the notificaiton. Should it appear as an email. or a note on my screen.
Have read a few comments re passcodes and was not sure what this meant.
Thanks

Try going to notifications., then scroll down to the find my friends app--make sure you haven't set that to off. Put the notifications to on and then see if it works.

Facebook and skype notifications

I have a lumia 920 and can't get fb and skype notifications work.
The worked just after the installation of the apps, but then they stopped working.
The apps are fine, I just don't see toast nor tile notifications.
Any ideas? This isn't a borderline issue for a smartphone..

I'm not talking about FB chat. That is ok on my phone.
I'm referring to facebook notifications instead (comments, likes and so on):
Me tile has too much limited functionalities (for instance no groups notifications..), thus I installed FB Microsoft app.
In the app notifications are sometimes working. But most of the time I couldn't get them, even after a long time after their publishing.
It seems to be a facebook app issue in this case, but is it possible on a smartphone to lack social functionalities like this? I'm not talking about minor socials web sites, but Facebook.
The forum is plenty of topics describing exactly this issue, but no solutions yet.
Does someone have any news?

I created a slide show in imovie for my daughters 21st with voice overs from friends and family which was all working fine but now the voice recordings are not playing at all. Obviously some setting has changed but I can't find which one.

HT5622 My ipad hangs up after showing a message that says it "Cannot Access Find My Friends" and that I need to open the app and review my signin info to continue sharing. I can't go there because it is hung up. I also can't power off.

If your iPhone can't be updated to a higher iOS version then the only way to get them is if you downloaded versions of them which were compatible with iOS 4.2.1 and you still have copies of those versions somewhere e.g. on your computer or on a backup - only the current version of each app is available in the store, and as apps (and other content) are tied to the account that downloads them, you will need to have older copies that are linked to your id

Suddenly 2 of my apps (Facebook and Skype) will not function on my ipod. They just close down when I touch the ikon.

If that does not work try resetting your iPod:

Facebook and Skype accounts in WP messaging app

Hello,
I recently got a Lumia 925 where I have problem seeing my fb and skype contacts in the messaging app.
The problem is only with my phone as when i log into outlook.com, I can see my skype and connected fb account contacts.
When on my phone, only old messenger contacts appear as available to chat with. (No FB, skype)
Is there something I could try that may fix the problem?
Thanks

Hi ManosR,
Anything happen prior to this concern? What are the troubleshooting that you tried to perform on your phone? How did you link these applications to your phone? For the Skype contacts, you will only see them if you are in the main Skype application. It will not be shown under the messaging thread. As per the Facebook contacts, make sure that your Facebook account is setup on the phone. You can check this by going to Setting > Email + Account > Check if your Facebook account is there. If not, you need to set it up from there.

Facebook and Skype on 3G how do I install it?

Facebook and Skype on 3G how do I install it?
Can anyone help?

"VintApps" has tons of available apps for all those earlier ios devices. And you can download them right to your ios device. Many are free. But once the vendor updates them past your maximum iOS, they can not be downloaded again. Therefore, be sure to backup your iTunes app library every so often.
Vintapps: https://www.facebook.com/VintApps313
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/vintapps-3.1.3/id639274910?mt=8&uo=4
Although I wrote this 99 cent app store app specifically to help solve this problem, I need to add that "I may receive some form of compensation, financial or otherwise, from my recommendation or link."
I hope you like.

HT5919 they say Open the App Store (with iOS 4.3.3 or later), but i need for 6.1.6, about install facebook and skype in ipod touch 4

need help to instal in a ipod touch 4 facebook, facebook messenger and skype
i read this article App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
but is not for 6.1.6.

That page applies to iOS 6. Download the current versions of those apps on your computer's iTunes so that they are in your account's purchase history, then go to the Purchased tab in the App Store app on your iPod and see if you can download a previous compatible version of them - you won't be able to download them if the developers of those apps don't support previous versions.

I'm trying to video chat on Facebook and Skype they can hear me but not see me how do I fix that?

trying to video chat on Facebook and Skype but they both don't work with the camera people can just hear me

There is a certain minimum data rate your Internet service must support to do Video.
The little pilot light next to the camera will come on when the camera comes on. You can test out the camera with Photo Booth.
