New skype version with msn account

I cannot sign in using my microsoft account anymore i try Live: id but it doesnt work. I even try signing in as my email still doesnt work it doesnt have the options to sign in as msn account anymore

What version of Skype are you on (help > about Skype). Signing into skype with your Microsoft account should be possible (has been for years) even in the latest version, as I'm guessing that will be the only sign in option soon there is no reason for Skype to remove the feature (sign in using another account MS account). http://www.skype.com/go/getskype Your MSN account IS your Microsoft account. (email/password, not live:X thats just how Skype treats MS account names) Make Sure your OS and Internet Explorer is up to date aswell as drivers and make sure no securety software blocks Skype from operating normally. If the issue persist, please state your OS, Skype version and the exact nature of the problem (be sure to try to use the login with a differnt account option at the login screen). For good meassure please restart your computer, and your router if possible.

  • Merger with MSN account?

    The merger with my MSN account does not seem to work ..
    When I log in with MSN, I can not see anything from my usual SKYPE. What am I doing wrong .. Is it so that my Skype-name must be the same, and if so, how do I change it? Can not actually click on the Skype-name in Profile settings? I have the desire to use the MSN account, but also want to Keep my SKYPE account with the corresponding number and history? ...

    It's not working properly that's what I can say.
    Here's what happens, you have a MSN and Skype account right?
    When you login in Skype with MSN account you'll be creating a NEW account in Skype and then when you merge to your Skype account it will create a relationship between both accounts. After this do never use windows live again.
    Now two things will happen.
    - When you login in Skype with your MSN account it will show all your skype accounts and then it will load your MSN accounts.
    You'll have all your contacts together.
    - but if you login with your original Skype account, only the Skype accounts are loaded.
    Thats my perception on how it realy works.
    I merged both accounts but i will never login with msn. It's an old email entry that i dont want my contacts to have it because i dont use it for email, but still used it for messaging until today.

  • Why does new Skype work with one user, and not another?

    Running 19.4.5, I installed the latest version of Skype. (I do not activate it on login) This opens, but crshes/unexspectedly quits on "sign in". I tried the same with a "new user", and the app opened fine. I compared the two users to make sure that Skype was correctly featured in my usual user. No difference. Still crashes.
    Does anyone have an idea what could be conflicting with Skype?

    Right, problem solved! . Am posting this as it may help in future. I use a useful little app called Window Dragon,(a haxie) which helps resize windows with the mouse. This was causing the conflict, but had not with earlier versions of Skype. All I had to do was exclude Window Dragon from working with the new updated version of Skype and everything back to normal.
    Solutions to apps that "quit unexpectedly" or crash often mention that haxies can often come into conflict with apps. So best to start with any haxies one has installed, disable, test etc..

  • Desktop API functionality in newer Skype version (...

    I work for a company that uses Desktop API to enable our devices to use call controls in Skype Desktop.  All seems to be working up to Skype version 6.20.0.104.  Newer version of Skype still have support, but returns values are now unexpected, and has broken our solution.
    Consider the code below snippet for holding a call.  I check if the active call has clsInProgress status.  With newer version of Skype, the status is always clsRinging.
    ICallCollectionPtr calls = m_pSkype_->ActiveCalls;
    int numCalls = calls->Count;
    for(int index=1;index<=numCalls;index++)
        ICallPtr call = calls->Item[index];
        TCallStatus status = call->GetStatus();
        if (status == clsInProgress)
            //[HandleCallRequest] - CallRequestHold
            hr = call->Hold();
            break;
    I would normally post to developer community, but this site no longer exists. Can someone who knows please respond, or suggest an alternate action?
    I appreciate the response.

  • Ichat with msn account

    I have heard that ichat can be used with my msn account. Is this true? And if it is, what do I have to make it work.

    At the moment no. If yu want to use the isight with msn use amsn.sourceforge.net
    Bear in mind though that amsn doesn't support audio. For a full featured isight usage without going through ichat you need the skype video preview (http://www.skype.com/download/skype/macosx/videopreview.html). But it's not msn!

  • How to open newer Mediathek Version with Aperture?

    I want to open my iPhoto Mediathek with Aperture but Aperture says that it isn't possible because the iPhoto Mediathek was created by a newer version of iPhoto which isn´t supportet by this version of Aperture. I don't know what to do?

    Aperture 3.4.5, iPhoto 9.4.7
    Then you are in bad fix. With that combination you are no longer able to open the library in Aperture.
    You will have to wait for a new Aperture update, that will be compatible with your current Beta-version of iPhoto.  Hopefully that will come with the release of the new MacOS version this autumn.
    There is no supported way to downgrade your library back from that version to make it compatible with the current Aperture 3.4.5.  Restore your Aperture library from your backup, and let iPhoto 9.4.7 not touch it again. The safest way would be to revert iPhoto back to 9.4.3 as well.
    Anyway, we are not allowed to discuss pre-release software here in the public forums.

  • Will be released a new Skype version for Symbian?

    A new version of Skype for Windows/Mac was released this week that adds Microsoft account compatibility and others resources about Windows Live Messenger. Aditionally, the current Symbian version don't support video calling or conference (it's terrible, I can't invite anyone to conference, I can only enter on a created conference by others).
    I want to know when a new version will be available since I really need these features, and Skype is now of Microsoft and Microsoft is allied to Nokia, so... Is ironic don't release a new version!
    Thank you so much and I can really apreciate if someone reply to this.
    Best regards.

    No update to share on Skype for Symbian.
    I think it's not worth waiting for a new version in the near future given that the Symbian Operating System is losing popularity each day.

  • URGENT Skype issue with hacking accounts

    Hello,
    I'm Dan, and just about an hour ago, I managed to recover my account after a 30 minute live chat. I run an online business and a lot of my work involves Skype. In other words, Skype is key to my business. All of my partners work through Skype, so without Skype, I'd be in a bit of trouble.
    At 7am this morning, I checked my emails and found I had an email sent to my primary Skype email address stating that my "Registered email successfully changed". Immediately I knew what had happened.
    I contacted Skype support (after having to buy a premium account for £6), they were very helpful but I was not happy about paying £6 due to an issue on Skype's behalf. After my live chat was closed I was told to be sure that I don't get phished or install any kind of virus which may discover my Skype password, I knew that these would not be benefitial due to the circumstance.
    So how does it work?
    Before I begin explaining, I am referring to the person who changed the email as a "hacker".
    So, firstly, the hacker contacts Skype support, I don't know whether it was live or not but they had to contact support. The hacker claims they are me, stating that they forgot their password and you can't access your email either, so your primary email would have to be changed. Ofcourse, there is some verification. The person at the other end of the support chat will ask for some recent activity on your account.
    In my case, the hacker had used multiple VPN's to add me, had added me on several accounts, this was completely oblivious to me, that they were all the hacker. I had accepted these accounts as the contact requests seemed like they were legitimate. So, all the hacker had to say was 1. I added "Micheal Potter" today. 2. I added "Randy Parker" today and so on.
    They may have been asked to verify an address, this wasn't struggle for the hacker. For me, the hacker had to do a simple WHOIS lookup on my domain. The majority of people have their address openly available somewhere, I know for sure that my address is on many forums, websites etc. So just stating your address, is definetely not enough information.
    Shortly after, my email address must have been changed and it is surprising that Skype have not done something about this common flaw in their security.
    How can this be resolved?
    Not allow the changing of emails on accounts - if you have an issue accessing your email. you should have your email provider deal with it.
    Add further verification e.g. phone numbers, secondary emails that they must verfiy, proof of address sent over (you'd never see another company changing information without ID sent from that email address or further verification other than just confirming some account activity.
    Atleast check the IP address the support request was sent from!
    I hope you look into this problem and resolve it immediately.

    I watched as this happened, and many other around the same time. There are guides being sold on how to exploit your support team and steal accounts. I no longer feel safe using skype, and I am really scared right now. I share a lot of very personal things on skype  xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    Shame on you,

  • New flash version with chrome

    Hi,
    I have Chrome and was playing facebook games perfectly until the other day.  All of a sudden, I would have to click 1/4" lower than the actual buttons I wanted to click in order for it to work.  I tried the same games in IE and they worked fine.  I then thought that the problem was Chrome, so I uninstalled it and reinstalled it.  Hey, everything was great, well for a couple days anyway.  This morning, I go to play my games and it says I need a new version of Flash, as it's intergrated with Chrome...I went to about:plugins and enabled the one of the 2 that I was supposed to and then proceeded to my games.  SAME THING AGAIN!! I have to click 1/4" lower.  This is very annoying and I cannot play some of the games because of this..  I now realize that the problem is not with Chrome but it'swith Adobe Flash...how can I fix this?
    Please help,  thank you!

    I tried this and it didn't work. I didn't have this issue until I "upgraded" to the latest and greatest version of Firefox. Is there any way I can go back to a prior version without the problem? I really don't want to use IE.

  • Syncing with MSN account and Outlook

    I am new to having a Blackberry and could use some help.  I have an MSN email address which is linked to my Blackberry.  Emails come directly to my Blackberry and also my MSN email which I access thru Outlook.  When i go thru my emails on Outlook and delete them and then sync by Blackberry the syncing process is not removing the emails i have deleted off my desktop.  It is making me delete on my desktop and then delete the same emails off my Blackberry.  There must be a way i can do this once and have the sync process take care of it.  Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Matt

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    Technically, your BB is reconciling (via BIS) to the MSN server. Likewise, your Outlook client is reconciling to the MSN server. The BB and Outlook do not typically reconcile to each other. With BB's integrated to email services via BIS, there are various reconciliation features that are available...see this KB:
    KB05133 Email reconciliation features for the BlackBerry Internet Service
    As you can see, wireless reconciliation of deleted items from the server to the BB is not supported. So, it is working as designed.
    Sorry that doesn't give you what you desire, but hopefully it at least explains how it is supposed to work. What you could do is, inside of your BB config, set it to retain messages on the BB for some duration of time (something other than "forever")...then, they would auto-delete from the BB.
    Cheers!

  • Maintain Fiancial Statement Version with alternative account

    Hello,
    We have a global chart of account, for a certain company code, each of
    the accounts from the global chart of account has its own alternative
    account from an alternative Chart of Account.
    We have defined the Financial Statement under the principal Chart of
    Account but have assigned the alternative accounts.
    When we execute the S_ALR_87012284 transaction to display the
    balance sheet, we are not able to see the node text of our Financial
    Statement structure.
    What is the procedure to correctly display Balance Sheet Structure,
    maintaining the nodes and node text?
    Thank you
    Daniel

    Hi,
    When you execute the T.code S_ALR_87012284,select special evaluations tab,select alternative account number check box:
    Pls go thru below:
    Issue Alternative Account Number
    If this parameter is set, the G/L account number is replaced by the alternative account number (from the company code-specific G/L account master record).
    Requirements
    These account numbers are only substituted if country charts of accounts are maintained in the global data of the company codes selected, and these charts of accounts differ from those belonging to the company code. The alternative account numbers in the G/L account master records must be contained in the respective country chart of accounts. The alternative account number is only shown on the financial statement if you have explicitly assigned it to the appropriate items of the financial statement version. You must therefore maintain your financial statement version so as to contain the alternative accounts.
    Thanks

  • Using SyncDoc to sync Accounts full version with the Accounts Lite Version

    Hello,
    I tried the AccountsLite application version for a few weeks and I just purchased the full Accounts version. My phone is telling me I can sync the applications using SyncDocs. My interpretation of this is that I can tranfser the information I have input into the lite version into the full version. Is this the case? If so, what is SyncDocs and how do I sync these two together?
    Thanks,

    If you want an unlocked version, you need to buy it from Apple and pay full price.  AT&T can only sell you an iPhone locked to their network.
    The nano Sim card of the 5S will work well on the iPhone 6 Plus.

  • Just what is the newest Skype version for mac?...

    I keep getting messages about a new skype version, or my skype keeps wanting to update but wont... The version I've got currently is version 6.19 (422). Is this the most latest one? Because it never actually tells you what skype version you are downloading/updating to on the website...
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Just ignore the updating, Skype is maintained now according to MS standard.
    See my post about "NO to upgrades". The problem is that there are different versions for every platform, and they have no release policy, so the moment a new version is made for MS Windows, they try to do the same on all the other platforms.
    Sorry Skype, but learn quickly never to touch anything that works. So upgrading is something you should never do, that may render you Skype useless. If it works, do not touch it. If it fails, go look for an old version that works. The novelty they have introduced is more bugs and slower systems, integration with Microsoft accounts (which I do not have) and they are probably working hard to replace servers out in the net, with their servers which is doomed to be a disaster.
    Never change software that works!
