Internet gets a bit sleepy...

As it stands, we have never had Skype work. We have installed and uninstalled atleast 5 times both ways. We have tried reverting back to previous versions of skype but to no avail. 
We have Microsoft security essentials, superanti spyware, CC cleaner, and windows firewall which never pops up. 
 It simply tries to boot up, goes to a Internet explorer webpage, then comes back to "Internet gets a bit sleepy..." with a couple clickable links to skype log in or microsoft log in. 
 IE 10
Chrome 43.0.2357.124

Try to reset all Internet Explorer settings:

Next reset LAN settings:
Open Internet Explorer. Go to Tools -> Internet Options -> Connections -> LAN settings. Make sure that the only option selected is “Automatically detect settings”.
Next clear all Temporary Internet Files:
Open Internet Explorer -> Tools -> Internet Options -> General. In the section “Browsing history” press the “Settings” button and in the next window the “View files” button. Delete all files from the Temporary Internet Files folder.

    What is the version of Internet Explorer installed on your computer?
    In Internet Explorer go to Help -> About Internet Explorer.
    P.S. Please, don’t say that you are not using Internet Explorer. This is irrelevant. Skype depends on Internet Explorer.

  • "Sometimes the internet gets a bit sleepy and takes a nap..."

    I am using the latest version of skype, and have adequete internent connectivity, however I keep getting the following message when I try to log in to skype via my Facebook log in: "Sometimes the internet gets a bit sleepy and takes a nap.  Make sure its up and running then we'll give it another go."I had no issues signing in to skype yesterday--this just started today.  I use Win7 Home Premium OS.Any advice?

    Yep, just found out the solution--thank you to the skype support chat folks.  They told me to download the older version at this link: http://www.skype.com/go/getskype-sseit worked like a charm.Hope this helps!

  • OS X Yosemite - the Internet gets a bit sleepy

    Congratulations on the most irritating status message ever!
    I'm travelling in the US and on multiple networks Skype Version 7.7 (335) shows this amazingly useless information message. As a software engineer who's written routing software I have no clue what this message is supposed to mean. All other internet services here work just fine.
    Took logs with Skype First Aid, but no useful information in the ascii log and don't know how to grok the binary one.
    If you have a better solution than proposed (leaving Skype), please speak up.
    Thanks

    The internet remains a bit sleepy on every network the machine connects to on this trip (Bay Area, USA, probably the best connected place on the planet ).
    No issues with hangouts but Skype has credits for phone calls that I can't use. Giving up on Skype as a bad lot.

    This is the message I get everytime I try to sign in. I sign in with my Microsoft account. I've installed the latest version. I've even uninstalled it, then re-installed it. I've checked my firewall settings, and Skype is good to go. My operating system is Windows 7 Premium. Any suggestions?

  • 32 bit is installed on my 64 bit Win 7 system - how to get 64 bit installed?

    It appears that my Win 7 64 bit system has the 32 bit version of iTunes running even though I've been using the 64 bit installer. It's possible it's had the 32 bit version previously and I didn't realize it; I only started looking deeper because it's running terribly.   I looked at the Task manager and all the Apple processes are 32 bit. 
    How do I get 64 bit installed instead?  Do I need to completely deinstall iTunes first? If so, how can I not lose all of the apps and music I've previously downloaded? Would the library have to get recreated from scratch too?  I have two iPhone 4's and will soon add a 4s to the collection.

    Because Windows comes with a 32 bit AND a 64 bit Internet Exploder. Adobe can't change that.
    The ActiveX installer puts both plug-ins on your system per Microsoft requirements.
    C/Windows/System32/Macromed/Flash and C/Windows/SysWOW64/Macromed/Flash
    Or, perhaps you're referring to the "Flash Player (32-bit)" in the control Panel.
    THAT'S the Global Settings Manager, which IS a 32 bit application ,and again, per Microsoft requirements, it MUST be listed as a 32 bit app in the Control Panel.

  • HT4259 I have been trying for hours to extend my Extreme Gen 5 network with an Express Gen 2.  But no matter what I do or try, it doesn't work.  What does happen is my internet gets block somehow when the Express looks like it's set up and 'green' - no in

    I have been trying for hours to extend my Extreme Gen 5 network with an Express Gen 2.  But no matter what I do or try, it doesn't work.  What does happen is my internet gets blocked somehow when the Express is online and looks like it's set up perfect and 'green' - but no internet connection for anything even though the Extreme is green and the modem is good.  Once I disconnect the Express, everything is good again.
    I've tried LAN, WAN, though a switch, direct connect, Extreme set to Extend the network, the Express set to be an extension.  Most of the time I get an error trying to update the Express.  But when it seems to be set up perfect, the entire house can't get to the internet.  Just when it looks right, it is so wrong.
    If anyone can give me exact steps (e.g., "...from the Base Station menu, select the Restore Default Setting option" vice "...just restore the defaults..."), I would greatly appreciate it.  I'm left to the conclusion that the Express is faulty.  I've been using Airport Utility 6.2 from Mountain Lion on one computer and Airport Utility 5.6.1 from Snow Leopard on another computer (the latter give more control while the former just want you to 'forget' the Express).

    I finally got it working.  I was trying to set it up ethernet.  My biggest mistake was when the new Express came on, I did not select 'Continue' - I went straight to manual thinking that I would get the most setup options in manual mode.  So everything I initially tried always resulted in 'wireless'.  Even when I would update or restore default settings, the Express would not completely restart. Or sometimes I would get an error. So most of the time I had to unplug it.  So when it came back up, none of my changes were retained. But there were a lot of times when everything was green and appeared to be fine. But anytime the ethernet cable was plugged in, no more internet.
    So here's the weird part.  When I finally tried 'continue' (vice manual), I would get 4 options.  One would be 'ethernet' extended.  So I would select it, it gave me green lights, all looked good, and still the same problem.  This is when I got frustrated.  I thought I had exhausted all possible combinations.
    But somehow when trying continue again after another restore, I only got 3 options.  One was the same ethernet extended option (can't remember what the missing 4th one was).  And this time it worked - it gave me the big green circle with the checkmark saying it was successful.  I don't know what I did different, but I know now that it won't work if 4 options come up to choose from.  It will work if only 3 options come up.  And success if only verified by the big checkmark.  Had anyone anywhere said the checkmark declaring success is validation, then maybe I wouldn't have gone down so many rabbit holes thinking it should have been successful.
    As for which Airport Utility I prefer, 6.2 looks nice, but it would just ignore the Express and would want me to 'forget' it and would not let me edit it.  Airport Utility 5.6.1 was the one that I ended up using the most and finally had success with.  It still strikes me as odd that there is no manually way to pick ethernet, it can only be choosen following a 'restore defaults', and only from the 3-option list (the 4-option list had the same ethernet choice, but it no worky).
    Thanks for the response.  I really do appreciate it.
    Aiport Extreme Gen5 - internet access and router
    Airport Express Gen2 - connected via ethernet, extending my wireless
    - configured while connect directly to the Extreme, but now on a switch (16-port hub)
    Using Airport 5.6.1
    1) Restore Defaults from Base Station menu
    2) Following restart, Select Continue
    3) Of the 3 option presented, select 'ethernet.... extend network...'
      - if 4 options are present, may not work
    4) Wait for the green circle with the big white checkmark.
    5) Connected Express to the switch where a cable went to other end of house - works.
    Dead-zone went from 2mbps to 24mbps.
    I probably spent 4 hours chasing my tail in anger.  The correct way took about 5 minutes total.
    Thanks again.

  • Any hope of getting 64 bit twain plug in for Windows 64 bit Photoshop

    Just what the title sez: any hope of getting 64 bit twain plug in for Windows 64 bit Photoshop? Frustrating to upgrade and have to do a work around to use your scanner. Will Adobe release this?

    Chris,
    I have a CanoScan 8800F plus CS5, both 32-bit and 64-bit versions installed. When I scan four slides in a holder, the 32-bit TWAIN driver/plugin gives me four images of one slide each. The 64-bit WIA driver/plugin gives me one image of the slide holder, with the four slides in it. Is this a limitation of the WIA technique in general or the particular WIA driver for my CanoScan?
    Best regards,
    Antero

    In order to fix Cognos, I changed my ORACLE_HOME and path to point to the 32-bit client (i.e. from D:\oracle\app\dock\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1 toOn Windows platform, ORACLE_HOME should not be set by user (it is already set by installer, in the Registry).

    Multiple homes on Windows is often a source of problems, since extra consideration and setup is needed more than just installing the software.
    If "Cognos" relies on system PATH, then one way to go might be:
    - put path to 32-bit Client bin folder first in PATH
    - set up a shortcut to command window with only 64-bit in PATH, for times when you need to administer the database via command line.
