Latest Update has major ISSUES!!!!

Is it just me or does the latest update of Skype comes with lots of major issues???
1. It is ridiculously SLOW compared to all previous versions!
2. Sending "pasted" (CTRL+V) screenshots simply DOESN'T work!
3. Sending attached files simply DOESN'T work!
There are other issues, but those are the main ones I have experienced for the past few weeks!
My whole Skype experience has never been worse!
Anyone else having these issues too...?

@cdgo - I can't answer your question about the cloud, but I think I can offer some idea about the need for IE.
IE is not just a browser - it includes a number of additional thing, one of which is an ActiveX control to display web pages inside other applications. It will be this that Skype uses to display the home page, and to manage internet file transfers. 
The capabilities of this control reflect the capabilities and settings of the currently-installed IE browser, so if you have websites blocked in IE, or an outdated version, then this will affect the instance of this control that is running within Skype.
This is a fairly standard way of dealing with HTML rendering, and is not unique to Skype.

  • I have the iPhone 5 and have with 6.0.1 software version.  Although I had them when I moved from iPhone 4 to the 5, the latest update has most of my songs on the phone listed in grey (over 95% of them) and I can't play them.  They are still listed though.

    I have the iPhone 5 and have with 6.0.1 software version.  Although I had them when I moved from iPhone 4 to the 5 (could play them), the latest update has most of my songs on the phone listed in grey (over 95% of them) and I can't play them.  They are still listed in the iTunes library.  When I look in the Summary for the iPhone, it shows Audio as only .16 GB - I have over 5 GB of songs, so what gives?
    P.S. When I look at my Playlists most of the songs are greyed out.  However, at the bottom of the list there is a cloud icon with a downward facing arrow.  When I click on it each song starts to "load" and after a few minutes I have the songs back on in the list.  I have to do this to all my playlists (I had over 100) in order to get access to all my songs.  Then I did a sync and it happened again!
    I use iCloud for documents and some other things (calendar, contact, etc.) but am not aware that I have anything music-wise in the cloud.  Any thougnts?

    You may have to try deleting all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete), then sync it all back on with iTunes in order to fix this.

  • Latest Update has effected my Microsoft Office?!

    I have recently installed the latest updates for Lion and since then my Microsoft Office Home & Business 2011 no longer loads?!?!? Has anyone else had this issue?
    I have tried reinstalling and still no joy.... What do I do as I need my files for work?
    HELP

    Mine works fine. In the Finder menu, select Go>, Go to Folder, and paste this:
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.microsoft.office.plist
    Quit Microsoft applications.
    Move the com.microsoft.office.plist to the trash. Try opening and see if it works.

  • The latest update has resulted in a runtime error (R6034) and I keep being told Microsoft Visual C   Runtime Library is being accessed incorrectly.  Anyone know how to overcome the problem?  I am using a Dell Inspiron  9400 running Vista.

    The latest update to itunes has resulted in a whole series of runtime errors (R6034).  Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library states it is being accessed incorrectly.  I am also told that Apple Mobile Device Failed to Start.  Additional messages suggest the error is in itunes.exe and ituneshelper.exe.  I also get Error 7 (Windows error 1114).  Anyone got any ideas how to overcome this (these) problems?

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

  • Yosemite latest update has broken yahoo email from mail.app. Emails won't collect or send. Tried deleting the yahoo account, now I can't re-add it - "an unknown error has occurred"

    Did the latest update to Yosemite last night. All day my mail has played up. Either it won't collect email from IMAP for long periods, or sent emails would just sit in outbox then send them periodically.
    I've now tried deleting and re adding the account. But it won't re add correctly - I either get "an unknown error has occurred" when I try and add it as a "Yahoo" account, and if I try adding it as "other email account" it syncs up around 300 email messages and then won't work.
    Please help, email is a vital cog in my day to day Mac use.
    Thanks

    This worked for me for my Yahoo.

  • Gnucash latest update has gconf problems

    Hi,
    The latest update of gnucash, 2.2.9-3, when started has a 'default values cannot be found' error for gconf.
    I have updated the home .gconf.path file and installed into home directory as directed by the wizard that runs when I try to start gnucash.
    The command update-gnucash-gconf stops with an error to do with schemas, which appear to be in another directory, not in the dir the script expects.
    Anyone know how to fix this?
    Thanks for any help.

    it works. thanks

  • Galaxy S4 KitKat Update Causing Major Issues With Data Speed and Text Messaging

    Dear All,
    My company has over 40 phone users and since the KitKat update has pushed out we are experiencing two major isssues:
    Many of our phones are only getting 3G in places that historically before they had blazing fast 4G.  Most message boards say to power off, remove the SIM card and replace.  This gives only temporary relief.  We get 4G for 10 minutes, and then it reverts to 3G, and it is slow 3G at that.  I have seen where some have gone and gotten a replacement SIM, but they indicate this is not a long term solution.  I have also seen that a hard reset/factory reset is being proposed.  However, this seems ridiculous to do to over 40 devises where the obvious cause is the update.  Has anyone found the answer to this one?
    Many users, including myself are now having outbound text messages fail.  We have to resend them over and over to get them to go through.  This problem is pretty widespread through the device pool.  I am unsure what could be causing this.  The messages fail regardless of if the phone is connected to wireless or not.

    I have had the same problem with my phone. Called tech support and after they contacted Samsung the solution is a factory reset to fix the problem and they are supposedly working on a fix for it. After doing the reset Friday, I have to restart my phone multiple times during the day to get messages to send. I also notice only 3G where we always had 4G. Called tech support again and was given the option to send phone in to have it repaired or get a refurb under warranty. Not sure what I am going to do yet but I can see it is definitely not just my phone. Of course the techs say they have not heard of this before.

  • Latest update network connectivity issues

    I updated the Apple TV with the latest update. Now every time it comes out of sleep mode it requires a restart to connect to iTunes.
    It's wired direct to an AirPort Extreme
    Any help or thoughts

    Well without prompting the printer/scanner is now working OK.
    Bizarre but happy now

  • Latest update has stopped iTunes toolbar working

    After the latest update, the iTunes toolbar's buttons do nothing. It always starts like this:
    Even though music is audible. Buttons change nothing. Not even the maximise one.
    Also, when mousing over the iTunes icon when it's running and shows the 3 buttons, those do nothing either:
    The mini player itself seems to be fine but I would love these to work as I do not always use it.

    Hi there  - I've spoken with Apple and here is their response (worked for me). You need to uninstall not only iTunes, but also (in this order):
    1) iTunes
    2) Apple Software Update
    3) Apple Mobile Device Support
    4) Bonjour
    5) Apple Application Support
    Then you restart your computer.
    Then you install the latest version of iTunes (which will reinstall all those things you uninstalled).
    Then you restart your computer again.
    Mine is working perfectly again now.
    I hope it works for you,
    Carmen.

  • Latest update has been a nightmare

    Ever since the latest update 11.4.1 or whatever it is my iTunes hasn't worked aT ALL!  I have done everthing under the sun and thensome to get it to work but alas failure upon failure.  Please supply a fix since I have spent thousands on apple products and services.

    Doublechecking. What error message are you getting when you try to launch iTunes? (Precise text, please.)

  • TS1630 Latest update has caused multiple problems

    Since doing the latest update my phone does the following
    loses signal constantly
    Cuts calls off
    I can call people and they can't hear me then on the next call its fine
    It won't connect to the Internet at times
    The battery dies within a few hours then other times its fine
    Any ideas ??

    I can't offer any help I'm afraid but I'm also having problems. Now using 8.1.1.10 and I've found that iTunes will not burn CDs (it cancels the operation) and playback now jumps like a damaged record.

  • Latest update has now produced issue with Car Stereo

    I eventually got round to updating my iPhone 3g with latest software 4.2.1 this week and apart from the already reported issue of apps now lagging badly everything else seemed fine.
    That was until i connected my iPhone to my Alpine iDA-X305 head unit which it has never had a problem with, now phone connects head unit will see phone and allows me to scroll through my play-lists or albums but no the songs although show on HU display the songs no longer actually play & you cannot fast forward or rewind either.
    I saw the update notes did mention that it included optimisations for HU USB connectivity but i wouldn't call this an optimisation!!
    My friends HTC droid phone still works and my old Iphone Nano still works so i know HU is still functioning ok.
    Has anyone else experienced this?
    It seems to me that now newer models are out the older generation phones either by mistake or deliberate move have more & more problems with each new update.

    Issue resolved, sold iPhone and now using Android smartphone.
    Works perfectly with all my audio devices and so much faster than iPhone should have done this much earlier

  • Apple has Major Issue with Podcast Updating

    I have been getting reports from a large number of the folks we represent at RawVoice indicating they are having the same issue with the podcast listings updating in iTunes.
    We are going to poll our 6000 podcasters and have them start watching this more closely. Everything has been working perfectly for such a long time most of us never check iTunes anymore.
    It could be some update that iTunes is doing but it is negatively effecting many podcasters because the listeners do not know enough to hit Refresh on the subscription listing.
    I know my download numbers are way down over the past week because it looks like I have not updated my show. Please check your podcast listings. If you see that they are not updating within a couple of hours of posting start submitting trouble tickets.
    Something is broke and I don't think Apple is aware of it. I am getting standard boiler plate responses back from tech support. But if they have enough submissions then they will know something is jacked up.
    Here is the info to submit a ticket, you will have to be persistent or you will not get a response.
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/ - click on 'Other iTunes Store Features' in the list and then on 'Podcasts'.

    try taking down the power to the ATV since the last update. Then power back on.
