Getting an error when attempting to connect Skype

Hello.  I am using Windows Vista 32 bit
I am attempting to connect to Skype through my microsoft account, and I am getting the following message.
"Sometimes the internet gets a bit sleepy and takes a nap. Make sure it’s up and running then we’ll give it another go."
I have checked my Internet Explorer LAN settings and have not been able to determine an issue.  My IE is version 9.0.8112.16421
If there is a clue, Yahoo Messenger has also recently stopped working.
Please help!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I just fixed this myself.  I went into Internet Explorer, the went to Internet Options - Advanced - enabled 'Use TLS 1.0'

    Hi,
    Try installing Windows 2012 Live Essentials here.
    You will have to set up your Pop 3 or IMAP email account after installing the updated version per above.
    Are you using an Internet Service Provider Email  account or a cloud based (IMAP) Email account?
    Pop 3 accounts will require incoming and outgoing server addresses and any additional security settings required by your ISP. If you don't have the required settings for Pop 3 you will have to contact your ISP for those.

  • Get 'Generic Error' when attempting to import .mov files with transparency?

    I get the 'Generic Error' when attempting to import .mov files with transparency? I'm trying to use mattes with an alpha channel but I cannot import them. I have had this same issue since cs6, now I have it with cc 2014? Any clues would be most appreciated.
    I have uninstalled the DVCPro Codec, but it didn't help.
    I have tried converting the .mov file (which is now automatic in Yosemite) and this creates a ProRes4444 Codec, Again no luck with import.
    I've seen this issue on the web, but never a solution? Anyone?

    Hi Terence,
    I tried iPhoto Library Manager but it could not solve my problem. Opening the iPhoto library I can see that the reference to the pictures are pointing to my old location not to the new one. I considered running a script that would change all pointers since this is basically what is needed (in my case from /Volumes/RAID1/Fotos/XXX to /Volumes/Fotos/XXX). Instead I inserted a soft unix link to make to connection but that did not work. It is referring to the airport disk by the airport name rather than the mounted disk name. Very strange indeed. The problem is maybe not in iPhoto but in OSX? Anyway, maybe the only way out is to take some hours and manually run through all linked photos... cumbersome and annoying!

  • Network-related or Instance-specfic error when attempting remote connection from SSMS

    Thanks

    Hi MrDAndersen,
    According to your description, you come across the errors of pre-login handshake and wait operation timing out. Please help to post the full error log for further analysis.
    Based on my research, this issue could occur when .NET Framework 4.5 and non-IFS BSP/LSP are installed on the machine, and non-IFS BSP/LSP interferes with the call to Winsock.
    To work around the issue, you could use one of the two methods below.
    1. Determine whether a non-IFS BSP or LSP is installed. You could use the "netsh WinSock Show Catalog" command and examine every Winsock Catalog Provider Entry item that is returned. If the 0x20000 bit is clear (not set), it is a non-IFS BSP or
    LSP and remove the installed non-IFS Winsock LSPs. For more information about the process, please refer to the article:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2568167
    2. Download and apply .NET Framework 4.5.2:

  • I am getting an error when attempting to save or export a PDF to Word

    When attempting to save as OR export a PDF document to Word, I am getting the following error:   Bad PDF, error in processing fonts. <cannot find CMap resource file>.  Does anyone know how to fix this?  I also attached an image of the error pop up.

    There are some preflight scripts to fix errors in a PDF. You might try those, particularly for fonts. An alternative is to refry the PDF by printing to a new PDF and then trying to save that to WORD.

    Hi Ian
    Thank you for your response, greatly appreciated. If i go to the path you suggest below I do not have the JCO lobaries there.
    Mine is under C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One Server\DI API\JCO\LIB because they have changed the file tructure slightly in SAP 2007.
    I agree that this should be added but it is still not working.
    Any other ideas???
    Thanks in advance

  • I get an error when trying to connect to Itunes Connect

    I recently submitted my payment for my Apple developer account and it was approved and the $99 paid.
    However when I try to connect to Itunes Connect, I get the error message:

    Is there something that I am missing? Thanks in advance for the help.

    You can start with this troubleshooting article.

    You may want to restart the iPad and restart your computer as well. You can always download the updates in iTunes on your computer and sync them that way - but that does not solve the problem - it just gets you the updates.

  • I get this error when attempting to check plugin status: "Plugin Finding Service Error"

    When I attempt to check the plugin status of the plugins installed in firefox i get this error :Plugin Finding Service Error

    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    *Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
    Extensions that do not have a Remove button in the Extensions Manager are installed by other software and need to be disabled or updated via that software.
    You can uninstall and remove Java Console extensions, you do not need them to run Java applets.

  • Getting Access Error when playing Spotify Connect on Yamaha AV receiver

    I having problems when playing Spotify Connect on my Yamaha AV receiver (RX-A1030).
    It starts playing (from iPad and iPhone) as supposed. But after about 30-60 seconds it stops playing and the message "Access Error" shows in the receivers display. Then I must pause and start play again. Then it will play for about 5 seconds. I have had this problem since the first day the new firmware was released.
    I have tried every solution with no luck. I have been in contact with the Yamaha store and they advised me to get in contact with the Spotify helpdesk.
    I can however play music from Spotify by using Airplay without any problem. But the real reason I bought this receiver was to achieve the Connect function.
    Appreciate  all help to solve this problem.
    Thanks.

    The exact same thing happend to me yesterday.
    I have a new RX-V475 which worked fine from 2014-07-04 until 2014-07-06.
    When i came back to my flat on 2014-07-13 it wasn't working anymore.
    The reciever is coming on and off in the spotify device list. It's not playing anything from spotify though webradio is working fine.
    Therefore the network connection should be fine.
    The reciever is shortly showing the message "access error"
    A reboot of the router and a firmware update of the reciever did not help at all.
    I also disconnected the recievers power supply, to force a reboot of it.
    I have the newest spotify version installed on an android tablet. (I remember, there was an update to spotify sometime between 2014-07-05 and 2014-07-13) and an older version on my smartphone. Both are not working.
    Was there any change on the spotify side server-wise?
    The next step for me is to reset the reciever to factory settings.
    Do you think, this might help?
    Any suggestions?
    EDIT:
    The reset to factory settings did not help.
    EDIT2:
    NEither did deleting all data and reinstalling the app.

  • Iphone 4 has a black screen which will display the apple logo for approx 10 seconds, then goes blank for 10 seconds and so on.  I have tried a hard reset with power button and home button but no change.  Get no response when attempting to connect to itune

    iphone 4 has a black scrren which will display the apple logo and appears to be at start up but then blacks out for approx 10 seconds and then displays apple logo again.  Same action over and over.
    I have attempted hard reset but cannot complete.  Also attempted to connect with itunes and it does not recongize device.
    Device is frozen in this display loop.  Have an appointment with genius bar tomorrow but it's a 2.5 hour round trip so suggestion appreciated.

    Your device may need to be restored as new in iTunes (instead of restored from a back up as it seems that there is a software issue on your phone).
    If your phone is not able to connect in iTunes try forcing recovery mode (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808)
    * power off your phone.
    * Hold the home button while connecting your phone to iTunes.  You should see the connect to iTunes window and your computer should give you the recover mode alert.
    *Restore your device as new. Being sure not to restore from a previous back up.
    You will then want to sync your information back to your device from Outlook, iCloud, Google or wherever your information is stored.

  • I keep getting an error when attempting to start Match.  It looks like it uploaded all my music, but it won't complete the task without an error.

    Is anyone else having problems getting started with Match?  I keep getting an error message and
    then it requests I close down iTunes.

    Hi,
    Try holding shift key whilst signing out of match then close iTunes. Reboot computer then launch iTunes. Now sign back into iTunes Store and activate iTunes Match. You will be asked to add this computer, do so.
    You should add iCloud status to song view. Go to menu > view > view options and tick box. This will tell you what has been matched, uploaded, purchased, duplicate, inelligible or waiting. If match process is failing to complete, you should delete "waiting" tracks but do not move to trash. Those tracks may include some that match does not like and is preventing process from completing.
    Once process has complete, try adding those tracks again, a small number at a time.
