I Can't Change My Profile Picture... Please help!

So for the past 3 weeks I havent been able to change my profile picture on Skype. :/ I mean I can still take a picture and use it but I want to use a picture that I already had. 
But then when I go to the change profile picture option and click on the "Browse..." option it wont open at all!! And when I went to Tools > Options the options tab wouldnt open either and it would just make that noise if an error message would come on but an error message didnt come on at all! And when I try to close Skype by going down to the user bar at the bottom and right clicking > quit it would make that noise too! So now I have to manually close it by going down the File tab. I dont know whats going on with my Skype. Please help. :/

Do you by chance have Logitech QuickCam webcam connected to your computer?
You can also try to reset all Skype settings.
Quit Skype or use Windows Task Manager to kill any Skype.exe process. Go to Windows Start and in the Search/Run box type %appdata% and then press Enter or click the OK button. The Windows File Explorer will pop up. There locate a folder named “Skype”. Rename this folder to something different, e.g. Skype_old. Restart Skype.
N.B. If needed, you will still be able to re-establish your call and chat history. All data is still saved in the Skype_old folder.

  • How can I change my profile picture

    Dear All, The Modern Skype with touch-screen features looks completely different from the old Skype that we used with Win 7 and earlier versions. For example, in the old Skype, we could go to the Skype button and easily scroll to "Change your profile picture". In the new Skype, there is no functionality to do this. (That is, as far as I know). If you click on "My account", it takes you to the Skype website. In that, you can go to "My Profile", and then "Edit", but the edit does not have any button next to your picture to enable you to change it. In short, I don't know what to do. Please help. Thank you so much in advance for your attention. Dr. Taher

    I hope everyone will forgive my ignorance, because it seems everyone but me can get this done.  Upon viewing the instructions, I do not appear to have the same structure to my home page as others do.  When I click on "my profile", I do see an "edit" button, but I can edit everything except my profile picture.  I'm on a PC using the latest version of windows.  Any help is most gratefully received.  You are not alone.  When I log on there is no picture in the top right corner.  There is one on the left margin so I clicked on the and it took me to the Personal Information page.  There is not any options to change the picture.  To make matters worse; Skype have not updated their knowledgebase help page and are still showing the old drop down menus (Which were much better than what we have now).  Why does a company like Skype roll out completely different user interfaces and leave their hlp pages with out of date information.  Infuriation to the maximum. 

  • How can I change my profile picture to a photo from iPhoto?

    I want to change my profile picture on my Macbook Pro, but the only pictures that are letting me choose from, are the default pictures, I can't even see my photos from iPhoto as an option. Please help!

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    In OS X Lion and Mountain Lion, the option to change the profile picture changed, making difficult the process to select a iPhoto library photo as the account picture.
    First, open System Preferences > Users & Groups, and press the user picture. Then, open iPhoto and drag the photo you want to use as your account picture to the box with the user picture in System Preferences. Now, set up the photo as you want and accept it, so you will be using this photo as your account picture

  • I CAN'T CHANGE MY PROFILE PICTURE ON THE PLAYSTATION APP

    I know! Its so frustrating. I just wanna put a picture of big boss smoking his infamous cigar but every time I try it just doesn't work. On my phone I go through the whole process of selecting the picture and clicking okay but nothing changes. And it doesn't even say "change profile picture" it says "add profile picture" and so I though maybe I have to go on my ps4 for the rest but I go to change my profile picture and it gives me the 3 options to load one from facebook, PlayStation app, or use the avatar and I figured maybe I added the picture and now I have to select it on the ps4 but il click X on the playstation app option and the little circle dot doesn't change to the playstation app. It just stays on the avatar option.

    Do you by chance have Logitech QuickCam webcam connected to your computer?

  • ~~Can't Change Profile Picture-Please Help!!~~

    Alright, so I've had the same profile picture on Skype for a while now, and I'd like to change. First I tried to change it through the Skype desktop client. I went to Home, then clicked Profile. Under my picture, I clicked on Change picture. Then a window opens giving me the choice to either take a picture using my webcam or to browse for a picture on my computer. When I click Browse and select a picture, the little pop-up window closes and nothing changes. I've tried multiple pictures of multiple file formats and nothing works. So then I tried to change my avatar through the Skype website. I log in then go to my profile, and it shows information about me (name, state, email, etc). Well I click the Edit button next to Personal Information, and it gives me the choice to edit everything as I please... except for my profile picture! I'm not sure if the fact that I merged my Live account with my Skype account has anything to do with it; all I know is that I can't change my avatar and it's really starting to get on my nerves. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,Nathan

    We had the same problem. In the end when I tried a smaller picture (reduced pixel quality under 1 meg) it worked. To get a lower density picture I just went into picasa and emailed the 7 meg picture to myself and used the diminished jpg file. Hope it works for you. Nathan_4129 wrote:

    Howdy Malcolm,
    It sounds as if you need to sign out with the incorrect Apple ID and sign back in with the correct one. You can do that by following the steps in this article -
    Sign in with a different Apple ID on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Go to the section titled iCloud.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • When I try to update my apps the Email that pops out in the box is not mine. How can I change it, delete it please help?

    When I try to update the apps the email address is not correct n it's not my apple I.D I don't know how it got there in the first place. I want to delete it and have mine on there hoe can I solve this problem?

    It's because the app was purchased under a different Apple ID and is being updated using a different ID. Try using the same Apple ID which was used to download the app and retry. If not, delete the app completely and re-download using YOUR Apple ID.

    Thanks

    In your case, you may need to run a full anti-virus scan to remove any elements that the hacker may have used in accessing your account, and immediately change your password.  I'm not sure if Skype can provide you with the information you wanted, but you may also need to contact them as well as they may have additional instructions or advice;

  • I'd like to know how to change my profile picture that appears on mail threads on my mac.  please help.

    I'd like to know how to change my profile picture that appears on mail threads on my mac.  please help.

    There may be other methods, but below is how I change my email photo.
    Here is how to change your Mac Mail email photo in Mountain Lion:
    Open the App called "Contacts". Type your name in the search field. Your contact info and photo should appear. Click on your photo. You now have some photo options. I use the "Recents" tab, and simply drag photo files from Finder into that window in Contacts. Drag and drop.
    If you have trouble finding yourself in "Contacts" you can also get there by doing this:
    Open one of your sent messages. Double click your photo in that message. This opens another window with your photo in it. Double-click that photo. This should open your contact information in the Contacts App.
    Hope this helps.

  • Facebook for webOS - Changing your profile picture

    Hello Facebook for webOS developers! Can you advise if the ability to change one's own profile picture will soon become available in upcoming updates to the Facebook app please? Also, the ability to send a direct message as well? I know this can be accomplished via the web version, however it would be much more convenient if it were integrated in the app version as well. Thank you and keep up the awesome work! CujoQ37
    Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

    Open "Messages", from the MenuBar click on the "Messages", in that drop-down menu you'll find "Change My Picture..."
    I couldn't change the profile picture from the "Contacts".

  • How do you stop Activesync users changing their profile picture?

    We are in the process of migrating from Exchange 2007 to 2013. In 2007 nobody had the ability to change their profile picture (seen in Outlook and in our online phonebook). However, it would appear that users already migrated to 2013 who have a iOS
    device connected via ActiveSync can now use the OWA for iPhone mail client on their mobile to change their profile picture.
    We do not want users to have this ability, we have already seen some inappropriate images appear and need to stop this. How can I restrict it?

    Hi GADavies,

  • How can I change my Profile photo or edit the thumbnail?

    QuestionHow can I change my Profile photo or edit the thumbnail?
    AnswerThere are a couple of different ways to change your profile photo or thumbnail image on Tagged.
    Here's a quick How-to video that shows you how to change your profile photo
    If you wish to change your profile photo, follow the instructions listed below:
    Hover your mouse over 'More' in the top Nav bar and select Photos.
    To use one of your previously uploaded photos as your profile photo, place the cursor over the photo you wish to use, and click the small green “#1” box when it appears
    If you wish to use a new image as your profile photo, upload the image to your photo gallery, and then click the small green “#1” box on the photo
    If you are viewing one of your photos individually, you can also set it as your profile photo by hovering over it and clicking the same green "#1" button.  You may also edit the caption and comment on your photo in this view
    You can also change your profile photo by doing the following:
    On the Navigation bar click Profile and select the Edit Profile link to the left of your Profile picture.
    To upload a photo locally from your computer, click the “Browse” button, select the image you wish you use, and then click “Upload”.
    To upload a photo using an image URL address, click the “Add from image URL” link, paste the URL address into the field, and click “Add Photo”.
    To use a photo from your gallery, click the “Use one of my photos” link to open a thumbnail gallery of your uploaded images.  Click on a thumbnail to set that image as your profile photo.
    After selecting a photo, you can alter its thumbnail by the marquee box by dragging the “anchor” points of the box.  When you are finished, click "Save Thumbnail"

    HELP! I was fooling around with my profile pic and selected and saved a cropped thumbnail. I hate it, and I haven't been able to figure out how to return my thumbnail to just a mini-version of my full profile pic. I've even re-up-loaded a copy of the original photo, with a different file name, but Tagged automatically crops it to the same thumbnail.  Is there any way to return my thumbnail to just a mini-version of my whole pic?  Thanks for your help :~)

  • How do I change my profile picture?

    I'm a long term subscriber, The 4 songs out of the first 5 I saved to my spotify account became my profile picture. Two of the 4 pictures are the same band. I like these songs but dont feel they represent my true musical taste or favorites. How can I customize my profile picture?
    Edit - My apologies, I think I posted this in the wrong forum, I'm using the downloadable Spotify app for PC. Mods please move if need be.

    Hi,
    Also, just to add:
    There is an idea for being able to edit your profile picture without connecting to facebook here. It has been marked as Not right now as they have other priorities right now but that doesn't mean they won't come back to it in the future.
    There is also an idea for customising playlist pictures and info here.
    Feel free to add Kudos and comment on them to show your support!
