How to change my Skype name?

I want to change my Skype name, since it includes my first name in it, which can threaten my privacy. Are there methods to change my Skype name in my Skype account?

Hi, dor123,
Skype does not permit account names to be changed once they are created.  This way, no recycling of account names can occur.  You can, however, change the name displayed.  Here is how to do this:

  • How to change the Skype name to private

    There are two names on skype, one is the on the profile which we can change. Another one is called skype name which is also the one we sign in with, it's unable to change, but publich can view the name. Is there a way to keep that name (skype name) to private? Thanks.

    both Skype display name and Skype username are fixed to be visible to public.  There is no option yet to hide them or make them visible to certain users only.

  • How to change data source name and context root during deployment

    Hi,
    Env:
    WLS 10.1.3
    JDev 11.1.1.6
    Hudson
    I need to deploy two instances of my ADF application on the same development enviroment. We are using Hudson to deploy. My question is how to change data source name and application context root before second deployment.
    Kuba

    I don't believe there is an inbuilt facility to do this.
    Previously how I've done this is when checking files out using Hudson jovs, before the build I then use an Ant extension called XmlTask (http://www.oopsconsultancy.com/software/xmltask/) to modify the required XML files.
    Can I ask why you're doing this in the first place please? Multi-tenancy? 2 versions of the same app?

  • How to change ASE server name in windows

    how to change the server name in Adaptive server enterprise running on windows

    Windows is going to require a few more steps if ASE is running as a service.
    Update all registry entries containing <servername> with <newservername>:
    HKLM\SOFTWARE\SYBASE\Server
    HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SYBSQL_<servername>[ _BS | _XP ]
    NOTE: Doing a registry search on <servername> will bring up a ton of other locations, eg, legacy entries, ControlSet00X, etc ... not sure if all of these have to be changed, too ...
    NOTE: Haven't installed any of the latest ASE packages in windows so don't know if SAP's gone an changed the HKLM\SOFTWARE sub-branch name from SYBASE to SAP
    =========================
    In addition to Ryan's notes:
    - any other sysservers entries that refer to the old servername (eg, loopback)
    - any remote servers would need to update their external/remote logins, remote servers and/or proxy definitions ... as appropriate
    - if the ASE is involved in replication then you're looking at whole 'nother can of worms ... off the top of my head ... rs_databases, rs_idnames, rs_repdbs ... and of course any repdefs/subs that include the ASE name ?
    - obviously (?) any monitoring/maintenance/operational jobs ... documentation ...

  • How to Change Journal Header name to Custom Header Name while GL Importing?

    Hello Experts,
    I am in situation where customer wanted to keep their own journal header naming conventions to imported journals in Oracle GL for custom Journal sources.
    As I know while importing journals, Oracle Creates the Journal Name based on the below mentioned logic.
    "Journal Import creates a default journal entry name using the following format:
    (Optional User-Entered REFERENCE4)(Category Name)(Currency)
    (Currency Conversion Type, if applicable)
    (Currency Conversion Rate, if applicable)
    (Currency Conversion Date, if applicable) (Encumbrance Type ID, if applicable)
    (Budget VersionID, if applicable). If you enter a journal entry name,
    Journal Import prepends the first 25 characters of your journal entry name to
    the above format"
    But then How it is possible to only allow journal header Name to be used present in REFERENCE4 excluding all other string provided by Oracle? Instead of using omitted string custmoer wanted to keep their own parameters. Example - REFERENCE4.A.B.C etc.
    Is it possible to solve this using seeded setup or modifying some hook packages or anything else?
    As far as I know there can be one workaround to be use of updating journal header name after journal import being completed successfully for custom journal source. But only fear is Oracle doesnt allow updating the base table without API. Am I rght?
    So it would be really great if anyone of you can suggest the best solution or best possible workaround.
    Thanks

    How to change the Bluetooth name for my N70.
    I can change it in my N70, but the first installed name still pops up on my computer. Can't find it anywhere so i can have the same name in my phone as on the computer. Is there some kind of registry that keeps the first name maybe??

    I am not sure about how to change SERVICE_NAME in PL/SQL Developer (if at all it can be done in that ), but you will have to change the SERVICE_NAME in the TNSNAMES.ORA file.
    1. Locate the entry for PLSExtProc in the file tnsnames.ora at:
    $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/tnsnames.ora
    2. Change the SERVICE_NAME = ORCL
    3. Save and reconnect
