I've been trying to create a Skype account, but I can never establish a secure connection to website

No matter which browser I use (Safari, Firefox or Chrome), I can't get to the page to create a new account / sign into an account because the browser can't establish a secure connection. For example, Safari gives me this message: Safari can't open the page "https://secure.skype.com/portal/overview" because Safari can't establish a secure connection to the server "secure.skype.com". Firefox and Chrome give me similar messages. I downloaded the application to my MacBook Pro without any issue, so I really don't understand why this seemingly simple step is giving me trouble.

We are currently experiencing issues with several Skype services including account registration. Our engineers are investigating the issue and hope to resolve soon. We apologize for the inconvenience. Follow further updates here: http://heartbeat.skype.com/2015/07/skype_web-service_disruption.html

    Are you checking on the website? Make sure your billing info matches exactly with the billing address on your credit card. One tiny mistake can cause problems.

  • Does anybody know how I can run multiple skype accounts on my macbook air?  I found workarounds on youtube, followed the steps to set-up a second skype account but I can't login using the second account.

    How do I run multiple skype accounts on my macbook air.  I'm using MAC OS X 10.6.8.  I followed the workaround steps on youtube to set up a skype b account (application and folder) but when I open the skype b account I can't login. I get an error message saying "please check your network settings and try again".  My 1 skype account works but I need to run 2 skype accounts at the same time, 1 for a client and my own personal account.
    Thanks

  • HT5621 Trying to create an apple id, but confirmation email never comes. What do I do?

    I'm trying to set up an apple id, but the confirmation email never comes. What do I do?

    Hello Ryan,
    Creating an Apple ID is very simple. Now one of the following may have happened:
    Email may have sent to your spambox
    Email may have sent to A different mailbox
    If none of these happened then try it with A different email address.

  • TS3988 I have tried to create an icloud account but I get this message "apple id valid not a valid icould id"

    I have tried to set up an icloud account however I repeatedly get a message telling me my apple id is valid but not a vaild icould id. Is there a fix for this or do I need to make a new apple id?

    Your Apple ID must be an email address to use it for and iClouid account.  If it isn't in the form of an email address you can change it so is by following this guide: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE40.  The ID must also have an active email address associated with it.  If it doesn't, first go to appleid.apple.com and add one before trying to use the ID for iCloud.

    The internet is the internet. if its not working then its something to do with your not allowing cookies from apple's site or they are having issues.

  • How can I quit the photos app? It has been trying to create a library for hours but nothing happens. when I try to quit, it won't let me.

    How can I quit the photos app? It has been trying to create a library for hours but nothing happens. when I try to quit, it won't let me. Have just upgraded from iPhotos so don't want to lose any content.

    How can I quit the photos app? It has been trying to create a library for hours but nothing happens. when I try to quit, it won't let me. Have just upgraded from iPhotos so don't want to lose any content.
    Force-quit Photos as recommended by Arsenal1607.
    Make backup of your iPhoto Library and run the iPhoto Library First Aid tools to repair the permissions on your library and rebuild the iPhoto Library.
    To launch the First Aid Tools hold down the  alt/option and the command key simultaneously while double clicking the iPhoto Library to launch the iPhoto Library First aid tools. You'd to hold down both keys firmly and long enough, until the First Aid panel will appear.
    Try both the options "Repair Permissions" and "Rebuild library".  Then try again to migrate the iPhoto Library to Photos by dragging it onto the Photos icon in the Dock.
    Make sure, you have plenty of free storage. Don't try the migration, if you are running out of storage.

  • HT5105 I have been trying to create a multicam clip from two camera's. They sync properly when using the sync feature but not when I use the multicam feature does anyone know what I may be doing wrong?

    I have been trying to create a multicam clip from two camera's. They sync properly when using the sync feature but not when I use the multicam feature does anyone know what I may be doing wrong?

    Probably best if you could post screen shots of the Inspecror window in extended view with a couple of the clips you using for the 2 angles.
    If you have audio from both cameras and have identified them separately, the sync is usually pretty reliable.

  • Credit Card Charged By 1.00 USD while trying to create free trial account

    Hi,
    I don't have any Microsoft Subscription & I was trying to create free trial account, on that registration form they asked for Credit Card information for verification information only also they are saying they will not charge anything for this trial
    account. After providing all valid card details once I submitted the form it is saying below error message:
    "Sorry! We could not complete the transaction using this payment method. Please contact support."
    And at the same time I got the SMS from my Bank saying that 
    "1.00
    USD was spent on your Credit Card XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX on 24-JUL-14 at MSFT   *ONLINE.Final FX rates and charges are applicable."
    This is very strange specially from Microsoft.
    Please anyone can do the needful to resolve this issue. Also please do not suggest to call to support.

    Hi Malviya,
    Sorry for any inconvenience.
    Based on my understanding, you have been failed in creating azure account, but 1.00 USD was spent, as far as I know, this 1.00 USD is used to valid the credit card, if you could receive this message, it proved your credit card is useful, about this situation,
    the best choice is contact with support, as this is technical forum, this issue is out of our range.
    Best Regards,
