I've lost my skype presence

Dear Skype
It appears that my niece has been 'playing' on my MacBook. When I open skype it automatically opens on her skype page and there seems to be no way to delete hers or to get to mine. I have tried moving everything to do with skype to trash, then downloading skype anew but I always get back to my neice's skype page! I found a way to sign in to skype using my skype name and email address and password but that only gets me to my account, not my skype home page (the one that allows me to do a skype call).
I have not yet tried setting up a new skype account with a different version of my email address - which I assume would at least get me able to skype again? But this would be a last resort as I don't want to lose all my contacts' skype names.
How can I solve this?
Wendy

with the other account loaded, click menu Skype >> Sign Out (or File >> Sign Out in mac). The login window will appear where you can enter the username and password of the account you want to use.

  • Digital Signatures getting lost when page presence set to hidden

    HI All,
    My project uses a multi page PDF which has signature fields in different pages. Because of performance issues i am showing only one page at a time and using navigation buttons to browse through pages. So when the PDF loads it displays Page1 and i sign the Digital Signature field and Click the next button which has event like
    Page2.presence="visible";
    Page1.presensce ="hidden";
    Now page2 is visible and if i move back to the Page1, the digital signatures are lost.
    But if i dont click the button , and save the PDF, the signature field is retained.
    I am not sure how can i retain the signature in this scenario
    Any help on this greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    What viewer are you using for showing the PDF?

  • Lost my Skype with 7500 contacts (suspended for no...

    Today I got kicked out of my Skype and said my password has been changed. I contacted support and they said that I have broken rules 6.3 (c) and my account will remain suspended.
    I have been using my Skype for years and never had this problem nor broken any rules. I use this Skype for online gaming business and I have over 7500 contacts on it. While losing it I have lost a big part of my job and income. I dont know why this happened. I really need help with this. It might been that competitors has reported me to eliminate me from the market. I'm really worried and I feel like my life has been ruined along with my Skype being suspended.
    I have so much unfinished transactions on that Skype. Over 200 people contact me daily. Please help me get my Skype back.
    One thing I noticed is that ever since I installed the new version of Skype, It kept crashing every 30 mins, "Skype has stopped working". Maybe it has something to do with the suspension? I had to relog my Skype everyday atleast 40 times.
    Please help me. I will pay if I have to, this Skype means everything to me. I would never do anything to break any rules.

    Hi, Suspended1,
    We here in the Community do not have access to Skype account records, so there is nothing we can do.  Please contact customer service again to appeal the decision.

  • Lost laptop skype is being used by another what ca...

    Please advised, someone is using my skype , how can I find this out

    Most likely, you're getting a network address from your router. The address assignment ("lease") expires, and has to be renewed, after a certain amount of time, which might be one hour or one day. The lease expired without being renewed because the device was offline at the time. Meanwhile, the address was leased to another device on the network. When the first device comes back online, it still has the address that's now also leased to the second device. Depending on what kind of router you have, the conflict may resolve itself automatically. If not, then from the menu bar, select
               ▹ System Preferences ▹ Network
    If the preference pane is locked, click the lock icon in the lower left corner and enter your password to unlock it. Then click the Advanced button and select the TCP/IP tab. Now look at the menu labeled Configure IPv4. If the selection in that menu is Using DHCP, click the button labeled Renew DHCP Lease. Test.
    Less likely, you have a network address that you assigned yourself, and another device is assigning itself the same address. In that case, the selection in the Configure IPv4 menu will be either Manually or Using DHCP with manual address. This kind of conflict won't be resolved automatically. You have the following options to resolve it:
    Change the menu selection to Using DHCP.
    Change the manually-assigned address to one that isn't being used by another device.
    Change the address of the other device.
    Which of these options you should choose depends on the details of why you're using a static IP address. Any change you make to the network settings must be applied before it takes effect. To do that, click OK and then Apply.

  • I lost my skype email

    I forgot the sign-up email for my skype of over four years I stopped using two years ago. After changing multiple skype accounts, I ended up wanting to return to normal, thus reusing this skype. My question is, how can I get the sign-up email back? I'm going to change the pass myself if I can afterwards. The skype in question is hinata_99. Thank you.

    Can you login using the Skype name as it is now?
    I can not. I don't remember my password, and the last time I changed it I just randomly hit some keys in order not to be able to login it. Now I regret it.

  • Lost skype tool bar buttons

    i have the exact opposite problem this person had: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/805438
    i seam to have LOST the skype tool bar buttons, i have fresh installed firefox and skype and still cant get them to show up.
    the thing that bugs me is when i removed the buttons by removing the addon, it let this annoying ugly dead space in the top right corner of my screen where the 2 buttons once were. i would take a snipit but i dont see where i can upload the picture....

    hah! never mind, i just found a way to fix it!

  • Locked out of my skype account!!!

    Ok, I have been using the same login info for years now and by accident instead of just quitting skype I logged out.  On my next session I was confronted with a login screen and used the same info that I have always used to login...but it didn't work.
    I have the info written down so there is no chance I have made a mistake.
    Why has Microsoft made this stupid mistake?  What exactly has Microsoft changed to cause this error?   I am sure I am not the only one experiencing this problem.
    To make this issue even more frustrating there is a option to change my password which I did and it still will not allow access.  It's a good thing I have a Microsoft @live email which allowed me to login to my account otherwise all of my contacts would have been lost.
    Skype can't afford to make mistakes of this magnitude.

    6.20.0.104 click on check for updates and it tells me I already have the latest version of skype?
    This is a login issue regardless of version.  I was running the latest version when this happened.
    Updated:  The new password has been accpeted but why was my old password rejected?  Very scary.

  • How to restore my Skype onto my new hard drive

    My new computer had to have a new hard drive installed.  I lost my Skype logo to get onto Skype.  I am having trouble getting it re-installed onto my computer.  What do I do to get it back operational?

    Hello Jayrajjpatel,
    It sounds like you have a Time Machine backup on an external drive that you would like to use to restore your computer. The following article will help you get that done, named:
    OS X Mavericks: Recover your entire system
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14185
    If you’re restoring your system because of a problem with your startup disk, repair or replace the disk before following these instructions.
    Make sure your Time Machine backup disk is connected and turned on. If your disk is on a network, make sure your Mac is on the same network.
    Choose Apple menu > Restart. Once your Mac restarts (and the gray screen appears), hold down the Command (⌘) and R keys.
    Select “Restore from a Time Machine Backup,” then click Continue.
    Do one of the following:
    External backup disk: Select it, then click Continue.
    Time Capsule: Choose your network from the AirPort menu on the right side of the menu bar, and then select your Time Capsule and click “Connect to Remote Disk.”
    Network backup disk: Select it, then click “Connect to Remote Disk.”
    If necessary, enter the name and password you use to connect to your backup disk, then click Connect.
    Select the date and time of the backup you want to restore, then follow the onscreen instructions.
    After you restore your system, Time Machine may perform a full backup at the next scheduled backup time. This is normal. Time Machine resumes incremental backups after the full backup is completed.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • Lync 2013 - Presence not showing in SharePoint 2010

    Hello,
    Presence was showing while on Lync 2010 and Office 2010 but at some point we lost the jellybean presence.
    We recently upgraded to Lync 2013 and O365. Yet our SharePoint 2010 libraries are no longer showing the presence next to Modifiied By or Created By.
    I've checked CA and presence is enabled. AcriveX add-in ia as well.
    Thank you,
    Andrea

    Hi,
    Did the Lync Server 2013 install On-Premises or online?
    If it is On-Premises deployment, Presence is displayed by using an ActiveX® control and Lync APIs.
    Please check if the Office to be the Latest version, if not, update it and test again.
    If it is Lync online, you can also post a question on Office365 forum for assistance. Thank you for your understanding.

  • Skype name and contact list

    Dear All,
    I had to change my password.  Unfortunately my skype name was changed, too.So,  I  lost my skype contact list. How can I get back the contact list and my previous skype name?
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi, DaisyrieDumali, and welcome to the Community,
    Your report reads to me like your account was compromised (hacked).  If you still have control of it, sign on to the account dashboard and change your account's registered e-mail address to something else, and then change the password. 
    Also, as a proactive measure, ensure your computer's software and patches are updated, and run your preferred anti-virus/malware/spyware program using the most recent virus signature files available.
    If you have lost access to your account, you may need to create a new account to use so you can contact Skype Customer Service in order to recover the first account.  Here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service
    Skype is aware of lingering problems with the website when contacting their customer service agents. If you experience difficulty reaching Skype Customer Service or find yourself redirected back to the Community, please try again using a different web browser and choosing a different path through the various drop-down menu options presented. Also, look to approve a pop-up dialogue box which would connect you to start an instant message chat with a customer service agent. If you have pop-ups blocked in your browser settings, this will also block reaching an agent.

    Elaine

  • Some thing is wrong with my skype premium.

    I just bought skype premium and the promotion promised unlimited calls to the US and Canada, but when I try to make a call it says connecting and then disconects and tries to sell me skype credit. Other than the calls to the US there was no reason to upgrade to Premium for me. Also does skype seriously not have actual tech support.

  • Lost So

    Dell Inspiron 720 laptop - Windows Vista Home Premium Edition

    I had no problem using Skype with the above laptop. (Skype audio settings ?Windows default device? for microphone, speakers and ringing, with selected ?Let Skype adjust my audio settings?)
    After correct installation of an ExpressCard Sound Blaster X-Fi? Xtreme Audio Notebook Sound Card in my Dell, I lost the Skype sound, in spite many attempts to change the Skype audio settings. (I also unchecked "Let Skype adjust my audio settings")
