New version of skype not showing online contact in...

I had my skype working greatly with some older versions but with some latest versions skype doesnt work with me. I was happy having the old version which was working without any problem. But today skype forced me to install the latest version and the problem came back.
When i log into skype, the only contact displayed as online is the skype test. However, i know that friends are online as they are showing up on my computer. I tried with different mobiles (xperia s, xperia z and galaxy s4) but same problem.please either solve this problem or let me use the old version that was working.

Same here using a Nexus 7 tablet, running skype version 5.0.0.52727. Not impressed!

  • I'v noticed with firefox 4 , when entering secured sites ,for example Banking ,it used show a Padlock indicating its a secure site with this new version it does not show if im entering a secured site , please explain

    Secured sites are not showing that little padlock on the bottom right corner,like the old version of firefox did, indicating its a safe site, example banking,emails etc etc.not sure weather im safe or not please explain.

    The padlock has been removed in Firefox 4 and replaced with the [[Site Identity button]]

  • Lumia 800 facebook chat not showing online contact...

    hi, facebook chat is integrated with my messaging, i have checked everything to make sure i am logged in correctly, however even though i know friends are online, its says no one is online. this started about a day ago.

    Posting the same thing in 2 threads an hour apart will not get an answer any quicker.
    Even though people are online it doesn't mean that they will be shown as online. Everyone has individual privacy settings. There are different settings for 3rd party devices which is what wp7 comes under. Just because they appear online in the Facebook page doesn't mean it will be the same on wp7 messaging.
    You could ask them to adjust their privacy settings if it bothers you that much.

  • My Macbook pro 10.5.8 will not download the new version of skype

    I am abroad at the moment - suddenly Skype cut out, informing me that the version was outdated.  I need skype to operate for my work -  the new version of skype won't download...  do I need to upgrade my Macbookpro 10.5.8 now?

    MissDizzy,
    not necessarily. You can try running Skype 2.8, which Mac OS X 10.5.8 should be able to use if you add the following line to your /etc/hosts file:
    127.0.0.1       ui.skype.com
    (The whitespace between the “1” and the “ui” should be a single tab character.)
    If you’d rather not use an older version of Skype and edit one of your system files, you could instead purchase the white retail Snow Leopard DVD and install Snow Leopard onto your MacBook Pro, run Software Update to get it updated to Mac OS X 10.6.8, and then see if you can download and run the latest version of Skype.
    If the latest version of Skype doesn’t run under Mac OS X 10.6.8, you could then download either Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks from the Mac App Store (which will be available to you once you have Mac OS X 10.6.8 installed), install the newer OS, and run Software Update again to get up to date. (Note that if you have an Early 2006 MacBook Pro, you’ll only be able to upgrade to Snow Leopard; if you have a Late 2006 model, you can only upgrade up to Lion. Lion and Mountain Lion are not gratis; Mavericks is gratis. If you upgrade past Snow Leopard, then you might need more RAM to run well.)

  • ITunes on new Mac Mini does not show shared libraries on network or songs on NAS drive

    iTunes on new Mac Mini does not show shared libraries on network or songs on NAS drive
    The latest version of iTunes on a 3-month old Mac Mini (8 gig RAM, OS 10.10.2) does not see any of the shared iTunes libraries on a  MacBookPro (MBP) (OS 10.9.5) and a 14-month old Mac Mini (OS 10.9.5). And a network shared drive/media server does not appear as well. I have a Gigabite Ethernet G4 and on it, the MPB and the "old" mini I can see the various shared music libraries and NAS, but not on the new Mini.
    The little house with a music note inside it that I see on the upper left corner of the iTunes 12.1 window on my MBP does not appear on iTunes 12.1 on the new Mac Mini. I have gone through all the iTunes preferences and can not find where I can turn on this feature. The new Mac Mini is on the local network and I can reach the internet successfully.
    I have been using iTunes since its beginning (still have a PowerTower Pro with a working copy of SoundJam), so I am not a newbie, but this has me baffled.

    May I add, that I gave full rights to the user at the Mac Mini to access and change data on the server drive for ITunes Media.

  • Cannot open my library. iPhoto says I opened it before with a newer version which is not true.

    Cannot open my library. iPhoto says I opened it before with a newer version which is not true. I am using Snow Leopard and iPhoto 7.1.5 which seems to be the latest update. How can I reach my photos? I don't particually care for iPhoto anymore since I am using Lightroom now, but I would very much like to reach my picture files, HELP

    Try these in order - from best option on down...
    1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
    2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. 
    3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
    To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* library:
    Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
    In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
    Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
    Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
    Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
    When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
    In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

    Hello and welcome to the Skype Community.
    Which platform are you using e.g. Windows, Mac, other and which software version.
    Please advise the nature of the problem e.g. error message so we can investigate.

  • I have used Firefox on my computer for several years. Today, after upgrading to the new version, I was not able to open Firefox. I have tried several times uninstalling and re-downloading Firefox. It still will not open! What is wrong?

    I have used Firefox on my computer for several years. Today, after upgrading to the new version, I was not able to open Firefox. I have tried several times uninstalling and re-downloading Firefox. It still will not open! Is the new version not compatible with Windows Vista?

    I hope that link points to mozilla.com or mozilla.org
    You will have to close firefox.exe with the Windows Task Manager from the "Processes" tab of the WTM since you don't have a widow to close.
    The best way to close Firefox is through File > Exit, for those who stuck with the "Firefox" button click on the Firefox button then Exit. It is not perfect but it is a lot better than just closing the window with the "X" in the upper right corner

  • Fax and scan not showing network contacts

    Was bumped from the office Q/A forum

    Just going to jump right to it, let me get the picture painted
    windows 7 x32 office 2010 (also tested on office 2013
    shared contact book from a networked pc
    I open the fax and scan click to and/or contact buttons the shared contacts show up just fine
    setup and activate an email account Imap/POP
    repeat the process and only the outlook contacts show up
    remove the email profile and the contact are back
    all pc are domained 
    i have 5 other pc that don't have this issues
    4 win7 x64 offices 2013
    1 win7 x32 office 2013 (hosting the address contacts)
    From what I can find most are having the opposite outcome that the outlook contacts are not showing up.

    Hi Sean,
    As per the description, I understand that a shared contact book cannot show in Windows Fax and Scan. There is not so much we can do on Office side, I'd suggest you check on Windows client side.
    This is the forum to discuss questions and feedback for Microsoft Office client. I would suggest you to post in the forum of
    Windows 7 as Windows Fax and Scan is a Windows feature:
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/home?category=w7itpro
    The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us. Thank you for your understanding.
    Regards,

    It's recommended to download and install
    Configuration Analyzer Tool (OffCAT), which is developed by Microsoft Support teams. Once the tool is installed, you can run it at any time to scan for hundreds of known issues in Office
    programs.

    I have bought a new iPad mini. its not showing me Facetime Installed. How should I start a Facetime ?

    Where did you buy it? facetime is barred from devices sold in some countries, due to the countries insisting upon it. UAE and other middle eastern countries are examples.
    If you bought your iPad in a country that banns its use then you'll never have facetime on that device. It's locked out at the most basic level.

    When you have kernel panics, the pertinent information is in the panic report.
    These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    In the Console window, select
              DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ System Diagnostic Reports
    (not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of reports. A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic". Select the most recent one. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
    If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a panic, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report.
    I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.

    Why does the new version 5 of firefox show up all the graphics on my web sites with a huge wide black border? They should be narrow and yellow!! I use iWeb for my web sites on an AppleMac iMac 22" wide screen.
