You can try disabling emoticons and image previews in your IM appearance settings in your Skype options to see if that changes anything. Some people running Windows XP have had odd graphical and resource issues with versions of Skype above 7.5. The alternative solution would be to downgrade to Skype 7.5 for the time being. You can find links to 7.5 in the thread below. http://community.skype.com/t5/Windows-desktop-client/Skype-7-6-crashes-on-startup/m-p/4031560/highlight/true#M353247

My time capsule just stopped and the power light is off. i checked and there is power going to it.
I noticed that I could not get on to the internet as it said there was no internet connection. A look at my time capsule showed no green or yellow light. I do have a good internet connection and there is good power to the unit. It just died. it is about 1.5 years old. Thoughts?
It is now dead.. thanks to Apple's poor heat venting design.
Leave it disconnected for a few hours to cool off and it may restart.. in which case be ready to drag any data off it you need.
Otherwise you need to get it repaired. apple won't do this.. but I have a bunch of repairers who do.

Why is the power light blinking?
I've had some issues connecting to the internet. I just replaced the cable modem and have it all set up. I still don't have connectivity through the router. I'm able to connet the computer directly to the modem and it works just fine. But, I noticed that the router power light keeps blinking. What might this be telling me? Is the router trashed?
Hello salin, the reason why you can't get online on your router because the router is not in good condition. The power light of your router should be solid at all times. There could be a problem with your router's firmware because the power is blinking. It can still be solve but you need to diagnose it first if you can still fix it because maybe it went bad already. To help you diagnose the router then try to follow the steps.
> connect PC to Modem and download your router's firmware here.
> disconnect PC from Modem and connect PC directly to the Router in port 1 (don't connect the Modem yet)
> press and hold the reset button of the router firmly for 60sec while router is turn on and just release it after
> unplug the power cord of the router and wait for another 60sec before plugging it back in
> check the lights on the router to see if the power turn solid
-if power light stops blinking then start updating your router's firmware and reconfigure your router
-if power light is still blinking then continue the steps below
> check if you can get an IP from the router.
-if you can get an IP from the router (the default gateway should be 192.168.1.1) then start updating your router's firmware and reconfigure your router
-if you can't get an IP then assign static ip to your PC. Use Static IP:192.168.1.10, Subnet Mask:255.255.255.0, Default Gateway:192.168.1.1 and just leave the Prefered and Alternate DNS empty.
> ping the default gateway number. Click start and click RUN. In the RUN box, type CMD and click OK button. There's a black window that will open. Beside the blinking cursor, just type ping 192.168.1.1 and hit enter on the keyboard.
-if you got this on the black window ping statistics- got 4 replies, 0% loss then start updating your router's firmware and reconfigure your router
-if you got this on the black window ping statistics- got 4 replies, 100% loss or media state, media disconnected then that means your router is no longer responding and thus you need to replace it.
How to update your router's firmware?
> access the web page of the router and go to Administration tab and just below that click the Firmware Upgrade sub-tab.
> browse for the firmware you saved in your PC and open it.
> click the Upgrade button.
> if Successful then just close the web page and reset the router for 20sec and just release it after. Turn off the router and wait for another 20sec before plugging it back in.
> check the lights on the router. It should turn solid.

Do you have Apple Care? Is there an Apple Store near you?
Sounds like a hardware fault... -
I recently bought a Macbook Pro, this is my first Mac. I restarted it, but when it started back there was a plain white screen and then it prompted me to insert the reboot disk. Has anyone else had this problem and is there a way to do this manually like with PC's?
The new Mac's came with OS X Lion 10.7 and there are no boot disks.
Since it's so new, take it back to the Apple Store and let them deal with it.
If not you can hold Command and r (as in rotten) keys down and boot the computer.
You'll be presented with a several options, including one to reinstall OS X Lion provided you have a Apple ID, which means you have to use Safari in there to set one up. To do that you need to set up a email account with Google or Yahoo. Once you get the ID, then you can download Lion and reinstall it.
It's so stupid not having a copy of the OS on hand to perform your own repairs.
Of course Apple will be happy to sell you a $69 Lion USB stick.
Like I said, take it back to the store, and try to get your money back, that will force them to think about just giving you a replacement machine that works.
Lion doesn't work really but it can be acceptable until the patches get released. -

the Configuration summary dialog box displaying following error's : 1. Failed to Configure TFS Team Project Collection, 2. Could not complete operation as the time out expired. ''
I have checked the "visual Studio Test controller " in the
Services --> Administrative. Its automatically stopped the service. When i started the manually its showing message like as 'The visual Studio Test controller
service on local computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs'
Please guide me how to resolve this problem.
Thanks in Advance...Hi Divakar,
What’s the version of your TFS?
How do you configure the test control?
Please make sure you are specify the team collection instead of team project.
On the other hand, you may enable test controller logs. (You could share the log file on the OneDrive)

My iPod shuffle only worked for a short time. It will not charge and the power light does not come on. Bought it in 2009. Put it back in the box and in my desk. Recently tried to get it to work again but no luck. Anyone else have this problem? Very disappointed with the product although my wifes work perfectly.
Can't say I haven't done the same kind of thing...keep finding things I had every intention of...
If you have the chance stop by an Apple Retail store and talk to them about it...they often work deals for replacement of out of warranty non-working items for prices around half price. Won't hurt to stop by and see what they will do for you. -
The OracleXETNSListener service on Local Computer started and then stopped.
Hi,
I practiced with APEX till yesterday.
Today I'm not able to start OracleXETNSListener, thus not able to open APEX workspace.
Whenever I tried to start the listener I got the message below:
"The OracleXETNSListener service on Local Computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they have no work to do, for example, the Performance Logs and Alerts service."
FYS, I have very limited knowledge about database.
I read about the solutions posted in this forum but couldn't understand.

GUYHi,
Thank you for your advice.
-) the name of your machine is GYEON? YES
-) have you started a firewall? Don't know but I have Norton Anti virus program running.
-) have you changed your IP-address? Time to time it gets changed automatically.
Followed your steps and got the messages below.
Would appreciate your further help.

My macbook shut off and wont turn back on. Im pretty sure it is charging. The LED light is on but only when the laptop is closed. Im in grad school and have lots saved. Please Help!
ronicr76,
First it would be helpful if you post the exact model, year and OS version you have.
> The LED light is on but only when the laptop is closed<
So that light is the sleep indicator and tells us that the laptop is going to sleep when you close the lid. That would be normal behavior so the machine is still working. Possibly you're experiencing a backlight failure. With the machine supposedly "on" use a flashlight to carefully examine the screen. Do you see the desktop? Yes? machine is still running and something is wrong with the backlight.
You should immediately backup your computer or at the very least pull vital files off. With the computer hooked to another Mac (The way this is done depends on the exact MacBook, E.g.FireWire 800 to FireWire 800.) Then you restart the computer and hold the "t" key down. This puts your MacBook into "target mode":
How to use and troubleshoot FireWire target disk mode
Once your files are off try an SMC reset:
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
Are you able to get the backlight back on by opening and closing the display? Yes? Broken backlight cable refer to qualified service place. Even if it doesn't come on and you can still see the desktop with a flashlight it is still probably the backlight. Could be the a backlight problem also. -
My macbook pro has been shutting off on its own. The power cord "shuts off" (does not work) simultaneously. Does anyone know what is wrong? or what could be the problem?

My Mac Mini won't start. The Power light blinks continusly (not pulses)
My New Mac Mini won't start up. I bought it online from J&R a week ago. My monitor says "no input detected" and the power light blinks. I recently fed it the gray mac os x install disk one, which it won't give back. Holding the mouse button when it turns on doesn't have any effect. So now i can't put a disk in or start it up.
Welcome to the Apple discussions.
No video with the power light blinking once per second means either bad or no memory. See this Apple note: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303083 . Specifically, below is from that note:
If the computer detects no SDRAM (Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory, also referred to as RAM) or the RAM installed does not meet the appropriate specifications, the screen will remain black but the power LED on the front of the computer will blink once per second to signal the error. This error condition may be due to physically damaged RAM, installing the incorrect type of RAM, or not having RAM installed.
Has it ever worked since you got it? If not, you should call J&R and tell them they sent a dead on arrival system, and ask for a replacement (ask them to send a will call tag or prepaid label to send the non-working machine back). -
I have a power mac G5. It boots up fine and then a screen comes down and in a bunch of different languages tells me the machine needs to be restarted. At this point everything is frozen. I have started the machine up a number of times and I get the same thing. Anyone have any ideas?
Does it boot from the Install Disc OK?
Does it boot into any of these modes?

Holding SHIFT key at bootup.

Does it boot to Single User Mode, CMD+s keys at bootup, if so try...

Repeat until it shows no errors fixed.

Try to backup and restore you device in itunes...restoring the device is like removing the iOS software off the device and re-add in a newer software, after you have restore you device, MAKE SURE YOU SET UP YOUR DEVICE LIKE A NEW DEVICE, DONT NOT RESTORE FROM BACKUP!!... give the device a chance to use the newer software and see if the issue still persisting, if the issue still on going then its would be a hardware issue.
Call Apple Care and see if your device is still under warranty to get it replace
