Missing Recent Chat History

I mostly use Skype for its text chat aspects, rather than the calling. Right now, Skype is not displaying my recent chat history. As you can see with the image I have uploaded, it claims I Have no recent chats from today, even though, as you can see, I have been talking to my boyfriend. I really need help with this, as soon as possible. It makes it impossible to keep track of conversations, because as soon as I click out of the convo, it disappears.

Some of my conversations were wiped out too, but I think I know what happened to mine already. Did you recieve a messages about a video on skype with a link? I got one from a friend and clicked on it, left the password field blank when it already showed my skype name in the username field and closed it out afterwards. I got messaged by another friend that I sent the same message as I was sent, but my chat log with them and a few others went missing. Hoping yours is a different issue, but you're best bet is changing your password. As for recovering the past conversations, looking for that too.

  • Whatsapp losing chat history

    Hi,
    I have been chatting in a whatsapp group chat for several months now. But recently, in the past week, I keep on losing part of the chat history from the group but the single one-on-one chat remains intact. So here's an example: Chat from 13:00 till 17:00, when I go into the group at 15:00, the messages between 13:00 to 15:00 went missing.
    What's causing this problem and how to fix it? Any idea?
    thanks!
    Dennis

    Since you're using a 3rd party app to message, I would suggest contacting the app developer and see if they can resolve your issue.
    I would also check the reviews/ratings to see if other users are having the same issue and look and see if there is a fix.

  • IChat - Synching Chatting History from multiple devices on same account

    I currently have the iChat server up and running on a MacMini running OS X 10.6.4. I see in the iChat client on my MacBook Pro where it will load past messages when I open a chat with a buddy. I am also running a jabber client on my iPhone (IM+ is the iPhone app). What I am curious about is if there is a way to load chat history for the account, not just from the device.
    For instance, when using Skype the following will occur. I can chat on my iPhone, and then when I login to my Laptop, the history of chats sent from my iPhone will be added to the history on my Laptop. I am trying to prevent having to look back at every device I use my jabber account on to find that one IM message that has the information I need.
    Is there a way to sync the account on all clients (or at least just my MacBook Pro) so I can view chats there sent from all my devices and not just from my Laptop?

    Tim,
    I have turned on the logging feature inside of the iChat server, and I have seen all IMs being sent are saved.
    So do you think this is more of a client side problem of not being able to sync from the Message Archive on the OS X Snow Leopard 10.64 iChat server? Meaning that if the IMs are being saved, then all that really needs to be done is to create a client that will access the server log and do a compare of its local saved history with the server saved history and then takes any missing IMs and adds to its local history log?
    Am I far off base on this, or does this seem feasable?

  • How to make previous chat history visible in new window

    Hi people,
    Recent Windows convert here. I am a loyal user of Trillian, and one of the things I love about Trillian is that when a new chat window comes up, the log from the previous conversation is visible within it.
    So, to illustrate, it's a bit frustrating to have a conversation like this:
    Me: Hey Mike, do you know how Sally is doing?
    Mike: I am away from my computer
    I log off or go away. Then a few hours later,
    Mike: She hurt her foot
    Me: Who hurt her foot?
    You get my drift - if new windows had a little history in them, that'd be great. Now, I know how to save chat history, and where it is saved. What I'm wishing for is that it were right there inside the new window with some kind of divider to set the time/context (even a button to view it would be a step in the right direction). I'm guessing there may be an add-on for this, but my Apple Discussion and Google searches have been fruitless.
    Any ideas? Thanks all.
    Macbook Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    HI ZigZagLens,
    Welcome To The Apple Discussion Pages.
    I only know of a partial solution to this.
    If I have a Chat open and the other end person goes offline when they come back my end uses the same window if I still have it open.
    There is no way to reopen a close chat window AND add fresh text chat to it.
    If you wanted this it would be a feature request.
    I could see that it could be done two ways.
    1) The Recents item in iChat itself could list the last few saved chats
    2) An iChat Recents item could be added to the Blue Apple Recents item.
    At present iChat open saved chats are added to the Documents list if they are reopened, so it will probably need both.
    It is around this area that you might find a utility.

  • Older chat history dissapeared

    Could somebody help me to solve my problems please ? In recently January, I had enabled my blackberry messenger chat history. Then I had noticed that after a long conversation with the same person, the older messages disappeared. Is there any way to get them back or view them again ?
    I had checked through my PC, but I can't view it.
    And the older messages saved as .OLD format.
    Please help me. Thanks.

    Have you try pressing the menu button while in a convo and going to view history? Or menu>view>view history if your using OS6.

  • How do I view messages chat history?

    I have been using my Ipad to message with friends.  I wanted to look at the history of a recent chat, but don't want to click at the top of the chat to load more.  Is there a way I can see all my history?

    skype histories are saved locally, or in the computer where the chat conversations happened.  If you no longer have access to your old machine, there is no way to restore your chat history.

  • Skype 7.0.59.102 chat history only 30 days

    With all previous versions of Skype I was allowed to access chat history for each contact or group all the way from the start of the conversation. Now, with Skype 7.0.59.102, it only goes back a month. This is terrible!!
    Please, is there a way it can be accessed, I'm just missing it. And if not, please bring it back!
    tnx!

    Hi and welcome to the Skype Community,
    This is not depending on the Skype version to use, but whether you've kept your local Skype chat history database. This is the only way to store chat history beyond 30 days.
    If you have installed Skype on a brand new Windows installation only the last 30 days of history will be synchronized from the cloud.

  • BBM - No option to save chat history on Bold 9900

    I have the Bold 9900 and upgraded the software to 7.0.0.579 as well. I have the latest version of BBM but I don't have the option of saving chat history. This option is just missing from the list. I have asked my friends who own this same BB but they have this option on BBM. Help this is very annoying.

    Here are my privacy settings again. My formatting in the original question did not hold:
    Use custom settings for history
    Always use private browsing mode - unchecked
    Remember my browsing and download history - checked
    Remember search and form history - checked
    Accept cookies from sites - checked
    Accept third-party cookies - unchecked
    Keep until: I close Firefox
    Clear history when Firefox closes - checked
    The 'Exceptions' submenu has several domains set to "Allow" - these are the cookies I would like Firefox to keep on exit.
    Settings for clearing History - In this submenu, 'Cookies' is unchecked. While this is unchecked, Firefox will not delete any cookies on exit, even though I have the 'Keep until I close Firefox" option enabled. But if I check this box, Firefox deletes all cookies on exit and ignores my Allowed Exceptions. This seeems to make no sense to me.

  • Viber Desktop for MAC - Exporting chat history

    For some reason when I upgraded to the new Viber earlier this month on my iPhone, all of my call and chat history vanished from my phone and I didn't have a chance to export it.
    The chat history that got deleted on my iPhone is still visible on my MacBook Air.
    My question is, does anyone know how to export chat history from a MAC? I know how to do it from an iPhone, but seeing as the history isn't on the phone I can't export it. I need to do it from the laptop, if possible

    <blockquote>
    Using firefox desktop for mac. Recently it stopped saving my history. Forward and back buttons still work, typing something in the address window will make it pull up places I've visited in the past, but only ones I visited two or three weeks ago. Nothing recent. "Show all history" brings up the window, but there is nothing in it."
    Private browsing is not enabled. I have enabled "remember my browsing and download history."
    Another answer suggested I might have an anti virus or something that is disabling history. I looked, but I don't have anything doing that. Safari and Chrome are both saving their histories normally.
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

  • After reinstalling OS my Skype Chat History show u...

    Hello,
    Normally I backup skype text before moving to a new pc or set up my OS. But last time I forget to do it. I have some important chat history. When I log in to my skype in new OS. It automatically shows my important chat msg. But after 30 sec it was gone then I reinstall skype again and it's happen same. Every time I reinstall skype I got my chat history automatically back but after 30 sec to 1 min it was gone.
    By the way, in my android mobile I have a skype too. I can access all my chat history from here. But normally I want it to my desktop. Is there any solution?
    Thanks in advanced

    Have you tried making a backup of your main.db file then try viewing it with Skype log viewer or Sqlite database viewer?
    http://nirsoft.net/utils/skype_log_view.html
    http://sqlitebrowser.org/
    https://suurjaak.github.io/Skyperious/
    If the data is there you should be able to read it.  If there is some corruption in the database file you can try using Skyperious to see if it can repair it or join it with another empty database file (cleared history).  In any case you may want to backup your %appdata%/Skype folder before attempting such things. 
    If you have root access to your phone you could also try backing up that main.db file or possibly transplanting that information over to your desktop if the data is missing by replacing the current file or using Skyperious to merge the old data.  Remember when you perform clean installs of your OS your Skype history does not go with you.  It would be best to retrieve that main.db file from before you reloaded the OS via a planned backup.  What could be happening is the data could be attempting to sync from your phone but eventually only pulls/limits the information from the cloud (up to 30 days).

  • Blackberry Messenger - Chat history request question

    Hi
    I am a first timer on here, so please be gentle.
    My daughter uses BBM quite a bit, but has recently been acussed of being involved in something silly.  I have checked the chat history settings, but they are turned off.  So I have now turned them back on to save to the device.  However, I want to know how I can go about requesting a history of conversations.  Can I do this through Blackberry or through the phone network provider?
    I would be really grateful if someone could assist please.
    Many thanks

    Found a solution in another forum!!
    * For Whatsapp: 
    in Whatsapp's Settings, disable saving the chat history.
    Connect your phone to your PC as USB unit. From the PC go to the SD Card and in the "databases" folder delete the Whatsapp folder. 
    Then eject and unplug your phone, go to whatsapp and enable chat history again. It should work!!
    * For BBM and Windows Live:
    in BBM and Windows Live Settings, disable saving the chat history.
    Connect your phone to your PC as USB unit. From the PC go to the SD Card and in Blackberry/im delete the "history" folder in both BBM and Windows Live. 
    Then eject and unplug your phone, enable chat history again. It should work!!
    If BBM doesn't work, connect your phone again and create yourself the folder "history". I'm sure Windows Live creates it again but not too sure about BBM. 
    Hope it solves your problem as it solved mine!!

  • Please help bbm chat history

    Hi,
    I'm new to this forum and I'm hoping you can help me. I have been having a conversation with one of my messenger contacts and wanted to check something that was mentioned earlier in the day but was unable to do so. I have history turned on and set to save to my device. I checked the chat history and one part of my conversation seems to be missing whilst the rest is there...this is only the case for this contact as I have full histories for all other contacts. Please can somebody help me with this!
    Thanks in advance....

    With regard to saving BBM chat history on the Z10:
    1. Can saved BBM chat history be searched (other than by manually scrolling through vast amounts of text)?
    2. Can saved BBM chat history be transferred, let's say, as a text file, for archiving and searching by some other means / on some other platform?
    2.a. I understand that one can "email a BBM chat", but only a handful of the latest lines of a chat are incorporated into an email - not useful if one is looking to copy older excerpts?
    2.b. Where is BBM chat history saved? Device? SD card? Is there a directory path that we can follow to access the history?
    3. What is the purpose of saving all of this history if it cannot be efficiently accessed / searched / archived / used?
    Thanks for any insight.

  • BBM Chat History

  • Delete Chat History on iOS

    I just updated my Skype for my iPhone and iPad.  Suddenly, I figure out that I cannot delete chat history as previous version?  Why?  How can I delete chat history in Skype iOS new version?

    To delete the local (!) chat history in a conversation do the following:
    Open the "Recent" tab (iPhone & iPod) / sidebar (iPad).
    Tap the "Edit" button
    You will see a red remove icon next to each conversation. Tap it to remove.
    Note: This will only delete the local chat history. If you log in to Skype from a different device the chat content will be synced there. This is how Skype chat sync is designed currently (Latest Version only).
    Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.
