Friends Profile Pictures never update since instal...

Hi Guys, 
I have Skype on my Mac and my friends' profile pictures have NEVER, and I mean NEVER, updated since I installed it 2 years ago. In fact, if a friend asks me what I think of his/her new photo, I have to login to outlook.com, go to People, find the friend from my contact list and then finally see the latest pic. 
Is there a way to fix this? If not, is this a known issue - can I expect it to be resolved in an update?
Thanks!
P.S.: I have tried reinstalling the application several times but no dice!

Do you see profile pictures for any of your contacts at all? Or is it that you only see it for selected ones?
All those that don't show a profile picture to you (but you've confirmed with them that they have one) can you check that right-clicking on their contact the menu doesn't show a "Resend contact request" option?

  • Profile picture not updating on bbm

    Hi nagelc
    Welcome to BlackBerry Support Forums
    Which version of BBM you have Installed on your device , you can try reinstalling to see if it reflects any changes. If you have BBM7 then your contacts are stored with BlackBerry ID but if you any previous version then first do a backup of your BBM contacts locally 
    KB20554 How to back up and restore the BlackBerry Messenger contact list
    Once you done with it , Uninstall BlackBerry Messenger from Options > Device > Application Management > Delete BlackBerry Messenger from there . Perform a battery pull restart by removing the battery while your device is Powered On wait a min. then re-insert it back.
    After reboot from your BlackBerry browser browse to or click here www.blackberry.com/bbm to download the recent available for your device . After installing see if that helps in resolving your issue.

  • I can't view my friends' profile pictures on Facebook newsfeed-- fb okay on IE

    I used to be able to see my friends profile pictures when they posted on my news feed and now no longer can. I also cannot see a profile picture for myself. Fb works fine on Internet explorer so my privacy settings with fb are still the same. I believe that these are somehow being blocked on Firefox.

    With Facebook on display, click on the [[site identity button]] and then on More Information. This will open up the page info dialog.
    First select the Permissions panel, make sure that "Load Images" is set to allow (selecting Use Default should also work)
    Next select the Media panel, then click on the first item in the list. Use the down arrow key to scroll through the list. If any item has the option "Block images from (domain name)" selected, de-select the option.
    This should hopefully resolve your issue, but also see [[Images or animations do not show]].
    Some add-ons can also block images, for example if you have AdBlock Plus installed, make sure that you have not accidentally created a filter to block the images.

  • Replace friends profile pictures with those in my contacts

    Hi, anybody here know how to replace friend's bbm profile pictures with those in contact phone book like those before BB10?
    On my 9700 & 9780, I can link a BBM contact with my phonebook contact, and I'd an option to use phonebook contact picture foe the BBM contact.
    Anyone got it working or it's just another function discarded by BB10?

  • When playing Cityville on Facebook through Zynga games when I pick to send friends giffts or request, the window opens up but no friends are there and only since installing Firefox yesterday.

    When you play Cityville (Zynga Games) from Facebook and want to send presents or ask for request, a box comes up with the request and usually all of your friends show up. Every since loading Firefox yesterday the box comes up but my friends names do not load. Everything else is OK.

    In Firefox 4 and later [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode Safe mode] disables extensions and disables hardware acceleration.
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    If disabling hardware acceleration works then check if there is an update available for your graphics display driver.

  • I can't log into itunes store, app store or software update since installing mavericks....help please?

    Ever since downloading and installing Mavericks, I have been unable to use my apple id  on my Imac. I can't get into Itunes store, the App store or software update and it's driving me mad. Any ideas?
    When I try and do software update, it gives error -1712. It's an Imac with 3.1GHz i5 and 4GB Ram

    Hi Carolyn,
    tried that and it's the right ID, but when I go to Itunes and click on the store, it won't even access the store. If I try to sign in, it brings up the window, I put in my ID and hit enter.....it doesn't even change to my ID, just stays as 'sign in'
    When I try and open the app store or software update, nothing appears in the app store window. It's like those particular apps aren't connecting to the internet. Don't use Safari, so don't know if that's affected, but Chrome and Firefox are fine.

Keep getting the message "iTunes could not contact the iPod software update server because you are not connected to the Internet". Well, we ARE connected.

  • My firefox is not displaying profile pictures of my friends in facebook

    my firefox browser is not displaying my profile picture and my friends profile picture in facebook

    See [[Images or animations do not show]]
    *A way to see which images are blocked is to click the favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
    *A click on the "More Information" button will open the Security tab of the "Page Info" window (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
    *Go to the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
    *Select the first image link and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow key.
    *If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
    It is possible that you clicked "Block Images" in the right click context menu while trying to save an image.

  • How do I update from iOS 6.0.1 to iOS 7.1? As I've never updated my phone since buying from a friend and my phone won't allow me to update to iOS 8??

    How do i update my iOS 6.0.1 to iOS 7.1? As I've never updated my phone since buying from a friend and my phone won't allow me to update to iOS 8??

    An iPhone 4S can only be updated directly to iOS 8.1.2. You need to resolve the issue which prevents you from updating to it instead of attempting to install an intermediate version.
