New skype no longer shows call icons as "incoming"...

In the contact chat history for a single contact, he old Skype client would show an incoming call icon as a "phone receiver with an inward pointing arrow", and show an outgoing call as a "phone receiver with an outward pointing arrow".  This was vital information, to know if that call was one you made vs one you answered.  The new client shows only a "phone receiver".  Why on earth?  PLEASE can you restore the ability to see via the icon whether the call was incoming or outgoing?

All the old computers I own branded or unbranded have been fully compatible with XP SP3.  If for some reason you couldn't get your computer functional in XP SP3, you could always utilize the workaround I posted here to modify XP SP2 just enough to make Skype functional.  I have a triple XP OS boot computer (XP 64-bit SP2, XP 32-bit SP2 [with workaround], XP 32-bit SP3) and they all operate just fine with the latest release of Skype (7.1).

  • Screenshots no longer showing image icon

    HI
    I recently upgraded my mac mini to the new 2010 version. My Screenshots are no longer showing image icon (thumbnail) as they did on my old 2008 mini?

    Quite so; they now show a generic PNG icon. The change came with SL. You'll also note that the naming convention for them has changed.

    When you select one of your contacts, an option for a video call should appear with the call and chat options.

  • My brand new iPhone 6 Plus showing call time 2 hrs 41 mins when I did not even use the phone yet! Did I just purchased a used phone?

    Hi,
    Can anyone advise why my brand new iPhone 6 Plus showing Lifetime 2 hrs 41 mins under Settings/Call Time? I did not even use the phone to make call yet!
    Thank you.
    Regards,
    SC.

    Hi
    I meant when they test a percentage of devices as part of quality control - to make sure that a particular batch of phones is defect free and market ready
    The Call time is apparently the total time one spends talking on the phone between total resets and wipes

  • I downloaded the new Skype but now my Calls cannot...

    Any call placed to me will not go through, nor will any I send out. My messaging works fine, as do my update but I have even uninstalled it and reinstalled it, as well as restarted my computer multiple times. Nothing seems to work! 

    Try changing your online status to some other, e.g. "away", wait a few minutes and then change it back to "Online".
    Also do you see the status of some of your contacts as online or do they all show as offline?

  • New Message Doesn't Show on Icon in Dock

    I've created a new Mailbox folder for a client and have a Rule for all messages that come from him to automatically go into that folder. This works just fine but when a message comes from him and is sent to that Mailbox the red circle that usually shows up on the Mail icon in dock when new unread mail is received doesn't appear. So I don't know I have mail from him until I unhide Mail.
    Is this just a feature that Mail doesn't have?
    Thanks.

    There's a program called DockStar that lets you put badges on the dock icon for different folders. It's shareware and available here: http://www.ecamm.com/mac/dockstar/
    I've got a smart mailbox named "Unread messages" that just collects ... all my unread messages (I do a lot of automagic sorting) and then have DockStar show how many messages are in that smart folder.

  • Attachments no longer show as icons in emails

    10.6.4 iMac, MacMail
    When I selected an attachment it used to always appear as an icon at wherever my cursor was in the email. Now it suddenly appears at the end of the message (which is nice) but is displayed all over the email so I have to right-click and select "display as an icon" every time. At first the first attachment would be an icon but if there was a second it was displayed there - now ANY attachment shows up all over the email. How to stop it?

    Okay, well, as I said, for me, anything that can be rendered in one page, is, and if it is multi-page, isn't. Multiple single-pages all render. Toss in one or more multi-page, in any order, into the mix, and all the singles render in-line, in the order that they occurred in the group of attachments, and all the multi-pages show up as file icons, in the order that they occurred in the group of attachments. At least that's how it is on multiple machines to which I have access.
    Bad news for you, I bet Apple regards this as a "feature," not a bug. Because they already know what you want and need.
    Perhaps some smart person could weigh in here and advise as to whether there is some obscure setting that could be changed by modifying com.apple.mail.plist or by using some hidden features revealer program like an Onyx.
    My only suggested work-around would be to zip it (them) before you attach (one or more files highlighted/selected > right-click > compress).
    And if you are talking about sending, there is no guarantee as to how the receiver's email program will treat the attachments, anyways. Even though rendered in-line on your end (or not), the receiver may only get a pile of file icons (or may render in-line) (of course, MacMail users will render in-line just like you).

  • New skype doesn't show group convo's topic picture

    Please stop updating skype if bugs like this are going to effect stuff, in fact I think the basic skype was perfect but ti seems that each version its being upgraded with is over weighting the pros with cons. 
    Anyways I can't see group convo pictures at all and I have no idea why, before I could with any group convo I was in now its only a select few and I can't even set a topic picture no longer. Please help.

    With the latest Skype version, only avatar pictures of new Cloud-based group chats can be displayed. Pictures of old P2P group chats are not displayed. This is a bug that is expected to be fixed in one of the next Skype versions.

  • InDesign CS4 no longer shows triangle icon for modified images in Links

    My InDesign crashed the other day, and now it no longer gives me the yellow triangular icon in the Links panel to indicate that and image has been modified and needs to be updated. I typically do not connect the image to the original via Indesign, but work in Photoshop independently. This has never been a problem. After I update the image in PS, the triangle instantly appears in ID so I can click on it and update the image.
    I can still click on the refresh button to update the image, but I would like those indicators back since it helps me with older documents - so I can know which images actually need the update and which do not.
    I have restarted the panel and launched and closed bridge as suggested in other older discussions, and it didn't make a difference. I also noticed that the if I do try to open the original image via ID with Open With, the icon for PS, for example, does not take me to PS (it opens the image in Windowd Paint). This makes me wonder is the whole connection between ID and PS is messed up. How do I fix that connection?

    I will also add that the Edit With paths are completely messed up, but only within ID. If I choose to open in PS, it may open it in Firefox, IE, Paint or Windows preview. And then next time, choose a different app. Eventually Photoshop won't even be an option anymore. If I choose Other and choose PS, then it works. If I go in bridge or anywhere else in Windows and choose PS from Open With, then it works fine. This is just an ID problem.

  • My new events no longer show up in Events, since I upgraded to iPhoto 11 at the end of March. The number of events goes up, but they no longer show. The photos are in my photo place all right, but everything is getting every messy and confusing. Help!

    I upgraded to iPhoto 11 from iPhoto 08 at the end of March, 2012. Since then, although all my photos appear in the library,and the number of events tally goes up, no new events show up in Events. My iPhoto is getting very mess and confusing. I have checked preferences, and they are the same as what I always had (one event/day)

    Go into the Event mode and set the View ➙ Sort menu option to By Date, either ascending or descending, and look for the new events at the top or bottom of the list.
    You can view the last import in the Last Import section and then Control (right) click on one of the photos and select Show Event.  That will take you to the event where you can rename it at the top and then check to see where in the list it is placed.

  • New bookmarks no longer show up on the bookmarks drop down list. How do I fix?

    click" bookmarks " on menu bar.
    click" bookmark this page".
    edit this bookmark drop down, click "done".
    The new bookmark always appeared at the end of the list. Not any more. How do I fix?

    That should work the same way. However, you might want to check "Unsorted Bookmarks" to see whether they are in there. This can be found at the bottom of the Bookmarks Sidebar (Ctrl+b to open).

    folders that where made with right click crate new folder no longer show in that particular menu. they appear under book marks at the top of the page but no longer appear when I right click a web page and wish to save to a folder specifically created for this type of subject, they are no appearing there anymore. I havent added and toolbars or extensions the folders are just not there. I am using win7 home premium and ff 3.6.17

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
