Finding new friends if you are new to skype

So if the friendship posts have been blocked to beginners, what are the newbies supposed to do to find new friends on skype???
It makes no sense blocking everyone and giving access to the people who most probably have many contacts already. Skype used to be a place to make new friends as well as keep in touch with old ones.
Guess what I am asking is how do I go about making new friends on skype?

Again: Skype is a tool for bringing people closer, but not for meeting new people. I recommend browsing sites and discussions forums with people sharing your interests. You will eventually find other participants there that want to continue the conversation on Skype. That's when you exchange your Skype contact details.

  • I want to remove what Skype identifies as "Tell you friends what you are feeling . . . ."  One person on the Skype community said I could rename a file, but he thought I was on a PC.  I am using OS10.7.4, and Skype is functioning OK.

    One person on the Skype community suggested: 
    Re: disable mood history
    17-09-2011   02:04                 
    Actually it is possible to delete your own mood message updates but it requires an unsupported ”fix”.
    You need to delete the keyval.db database file. In order to be on the safe side, it’s best just to rename this file, so you can always get it back if something went wrong.
    You can find this file by entering %appdata%\skype in the Start Run/Search box. This will open the Skype User folder. Locate there the folder with your Skype Account name and the keyval.db file will be there. You must stop Skype from running on your computer before deleting/renaming this file. Next time you start Skype a new version of this file will be recreated and all mood message updates will be removed from the home page.
    However, this guy didn't know I was on a Mac.  I phoned Apple to see if they could show me how to get into the Skype file apparently on my computer, and they couldn't find it. 
    Anyone out there have any ideas?  It doesn't seem as if I have any Skype files on my computer.  If I need to make file changes via "the terminal," can someone tell me how to do this?

    Hello,
    I had the same problem with finding this file.
    There's no such file in Mac OS X version of Skype. But there's a directory for your Skype user account in /Users/%current_user_name%/Library/Application Support/Skype/
    try:
    quitting Skype
    renaming old folder

  • Turn off "find my ipod" when you are locked out.

    How do I turn off "find my ipod" when I am locked out of my ipod and I want to reset and then backup?

    There is no way to backup the iPod
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    To restore from backup see:

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

    Hello. I have a fifth generation iPod Touch and I just downloaded and installed Find My Friends. I have used this program before and I know that I have to tap Me and scroll down to sign out. However, I did that and I do not see a Sign Out option. Has Apple removed the ability to sign out with this program now? Or am I not looking in the right spot?

  • Find My Friends - Old email address still in "Send As" Invitations...

    In Find My Friends App, Under Me (The Account Holder), Invitations, in the Send as tab, I have old email address in that menu which I can't delete, its says under it in orange, "This address will be used to identify you when sending requests using Find My Friends. You can add more addresses at appleid.apple.com
    I have logged into appleid.apple.com and there is no additional or alias addresses under that id, I have also checked my icloud email for aliases and to no avail.
    Anyone have any ideas to get rid of the old email addresses under Invitations?
    Thanks

    Only temporary solution I Have found is:
    1) Delete all the alias email´s you want removed from iCloud.com account
    2) Go to your apple Id account ( Web)
    3) ad all the email address´s or alias email´s you want removed
    4) wait 30 minutes or so
    5) now delete the alias email´s you want removed.
    make sure Find my Friends is installed before you do the above
    check back later after 30 minutes or more in your find my friends app to see if they are gone.
    try logging out also.
    this worked for me but is only temporary on the client side as if you decide to later delete
    the find my friends APP on your iPhone 4+ or iPad 2 + and later install the APP Again,
    all the alias email´s will have returned to your find my friends APP Under send as
    have tried the new Find my friends app and nothing has changed. so this solution is only
    temporary.

  • HP 110-243wb w/Windows8.1 - where do I find my web camera and are my speakers my microphone?

    Dear Experts: I gave up my Dell that I got in 1998 and got this HP for Christmas. I want to try Skype and have downloaded the program. My question is this: Where do I find my webcam and microphone? Thank you for any help.
    This question was solved.

    Hello @Coloradolady1,
    I understand that you are trying to Skype on your new HP 110-243w Desktop PC. According to the HP 110-243w Desktop PC Product Specifications page your computer does not have a Webcam and Mic built in so you would have had to purchase them separately. What webcam and mic did you purchase? If you could post the model numbers for them or how they are connected I can attempt to help you.
    Please re-post with the requested information. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • Change an email address to a name in find my friends app

    I have 7 entries on find my friends. All are the first names of my friends except for one. That one is an email address. I haven't been able to figure out how to change the entry to a name. Is there a way to do it? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Are you referring to iMessage?
    If so - it is probably because that friend has enabled sending messages / starting conversations from their email
    You can toggle that off or on from
    Settings - Messages - Send and Receive

  • Find my friends app not working

    I am unable to add or receive followers. It has been working fine for ages then one of my contacts said they couldn't see me anymore. They have sentence numerous requests but it hasn't come through to me (nor has it the other way round) and now another contact can't see me. Anyone else have this issue and resolved it?

    Hey kw05,
    Thanks for the question. The following resource may provide a solution:

    Issues with location requests
    You are not receiving requests from others to follow your location
    If you're certain someone has sent you a location request using Find My Friends, and you do not receive the notification:
    - Make sure that you're signed in to the Find My Friends iOS app with the Apple ID your friend is trying to follow. If that was not the case, check the inbox of the email address your friend used, and see if there is any location request email from your friend. If so, tap View Request in that message to accept or decline their request in Find My Friends.
    - Make sure that the option to Allow Friend Requests is turned on:
              - Find My Friends 3.0 or later:
              - On an iPhone or iPod touch, tap Me, then check Allow Friend Requests under Invitations
              - On an iPad, tap the List button, tap Me, tap Info, then check Allow Friend Requests.
              - Find My Friends 2.1.1 or earlier: Tap the Me tab, tap Account, then check Allow Friend Requests under Notifications.
    - Make sure that you're within the limits to accept follow requests. If you have reached a limit, you may not be able to accept more friends until you remove one.
    Your requests to follow others are not received
    - Make sure that you're sending your request to the Apple ID your friend is using to sign in to the Find My Friends iOS app.
    - Make sure that you're within the limits to send follow requests to others. If you have reached a limit, you may not be able to send a location request to more friends until you remove one.
    Note: If you accept a request from a friend that you’re not following, a follow request is sent to your friend automatically (Find My Friends 3.0 or later).
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • How can you found out what computers you are home sharing so you can delete some, How can you found out what computers you are home sharing so you can delete some

    How can you find out what computers you are sharing with so you can delete some

    Oh, have you brought up so many good points. Not to take us off-topic, but I could rant all day about Eloqua consulting firms who let low-level employees (Eloqua skill-wise) loose on clients projects. Just not fair for either the employee or client. There was one company that did this to me a few years ago, and since then dozens of people have asked me about them for a reference.  Needless to say, they never get a good one from me, and have likely lost hundreds of thousands of dollars in projects because of this. Not worth it in the long-run to cut corners.
    Back to the topic at hand....
    You really hit the nail on the head in so many ways. It really all does come down to one thing: hard work. There are no shortcuts. Always keep learning. Embrace every Eloqua challenge you can, and never say never.  Never be fearful of being wrong by asking something 'silly', or 'looking stupid'. I remember several times that I've submitted Eloqua support tickets, or tickets to other related vendors about things that I was convinced were bugs/major issues. Turned out to be my mistake. But that's ok. You brush off, stand back up, and learn from them.
    And finally, be modest.  You will never know everything about Eloqua. Be willing to learn from others, and know that there actually may be a better way to do something than you may have spent days or weeks working on.

  • Why do you block my domain & Blogg? There is nothing there that is dangerous for anyone. Besides, you are the only internett browser that is blocking it.

    I wonder why you block my domain and my homepage/blogg. This site don't contain anything dangerous at all. It is only about me, my family and friends. You are THE ONLY BROWSER that block it. And I wonder why you do it.
