Odd Skype Message...Clicked on it....Yikes?

I received a "mood message" from a friend on Skype about a friend on Skype...a link to http://imo.im....
The site seemed suspect. Did I just click on something I shouldn't have? Fuggin' hope not.

Skype's Click-to-call crashing & clashing with web...

Hi,
I'm working on implementing a WYSIWYG editor to one of my sites. Sadly, Skype's Click-to-call plugin wreaks havoc with it (tested on Chrome).
Steps to reproduce:
1. Load Chrome with Click-to-call installed.
2. Go to http://jsfiddle.net/gabito/jnSPf/6/
3. Starting typing some text in the right window and observe how the browser crashes and the height of the textarea is completely wrong (since node.offsetHeight and node.clientHeight are both being returned as 0).
4. Disable Click-to-call, reload the same page and watch how it all works nicely.
The code that's causing the crash with Skype is adding an element to the DOM, measuring it for resize and removing it again. Whilst this isn't the most efficient code, it shouldn't cause the browser to crash like this, and it doesn't unless Skype Click-to-Call is installed. Since Skype is a popular plugin that many users will have installed, this presents a problem for us.

Hi Claudius,
Firstly, thanks for the reply. I too am using Chrome 24 and Skype Click to Call 6.6.
The crashing doesn't seem to occur every time but happens often enough to be worrying. Basically, try refreshing the page and typing some text into the box on the bottom right window (where the image is placed).
The other issue which I mentioned - the size of the text box being measured wrong - occurs every time without fail.
Without Skype: (i.e. how it should look)
With Skype (height calculated incorrectly):
This is the message when it crashes:
To clarify: there are no other extensions enabled when reproducing this error, other than Click-to-Call.

N95 - odd error message

I have an N95 with Ver 20.0.015, and in the last day or so I have been getting an odd error message on start up - can someone suggest what is going on?
Very soon after turning on, the system says Installing... and then a message come up saying 'Untrusted software found on memory. To install, go to Application Manager'
I have looked at Appl Mgr, and there is an entry 'e14a45b8.sis' that says Not Installed, which is, I suspect, the guilty party.
Is this likely to be the problem, and does anyone know why I should not Remove this?

Hi jcaswell
v20.0.015 seems more intolerant of older applications than previous versions. In my case there was an eight numeral .sis on my memory card which was "Not installed" and produced this message at every start-up. Fortunately 'Googling" established that this was early Nokia "Podcasting" application which as it is now part of the firmware, could safely be deleted; now I no longer get this message on start-up. In Application Manager if you click on this application > options, you should be able to get more information about it's identity.

Ipod not recognized, getting odd error message

I've seen this posted a few times, but without any hints as to how to fix the problem.
I have a 4G 20GB iPod, just over a year old (meaning, no warranty), that has worked fine until this morning. I turned it on, and all of a sudden, it kept skipping through all of my songs, and wouldn't respond to the pause, play, etc. buttons.
I attached it to my computer via FireWire, and I keep getting this odd error message: "You have inserted a device that has no volumes that OSX can recognize" It asks me if I want to ignore, initialize, or eject the disc. I've been having it ignore it, or eject it (staying far away from initialization). After I ejected it, I noticed that all the songs on my iPod are now missing.
I reset the iPod, which didn't do much, and now I can't restore it, because neither the computer or iTunes recognizes my iPod. It shows up in Disk Utility, but I'm not entirely sure how to proceed.
What happened to my iPod? I can't seem to find anything in the Apple support pages that seems similar to my situation. Any suggestions on how to get the thing to work again?
Edit: I am using iTunes version 4.9; I have not updated to 5.0

This is the most frustrating tech trouble!
The same thing has happened to my iPod. It worked fine, then one day I plug it in and it says "Disc inserted is unreadable by this computer". As far as I remember, I didnt' update anything, make any changes, or adjust any settings to any of my hardware. SO WHAT HAPPENED?? And now I can't restore or doctor the iPod hardware bc my computer won't recognize it as actual hardware...
pleeeeease help, if anyone has a way to fix this.
The weirdest part, is that when I look at the information of the "unreadable hardware" it describes it with all the information, like how many gigs are available, how much space is used up, latest updates etc. So it can transfer information, but it pretends its unreadable? i dont understand.

Odd error message - Can't save new Pages docs

I use Pages a lot and know it pretty well. But today I got an odd error message I have never seen. It is stopping me from using Pages.
Today, when I attempted to create a new Pages document and save it to a folder in my Documents folder (or to my Desktop), I get an instant error message saying, "The file ‘FileName.pages' doesn’t exist." (see below). In effect, Pages will not allow me to save a new file. I can open older Pages files, edit them and save them. I just cannot create a new file and save it. I have restarted Pages and my computer multiple times with no effect on this message.
Anyone dealt with this before?

There you are, Pages 5 can be relied on to not be relied on.
Not much comfort for your previous file though.

Odd error message when attempting installation of iTunes 8

When I try to install the iTunes 8 (the most recent version), I get an odd error message and am unable to successfully complete the installation. This is the message:
Could not access network location
%USERPROFILE%\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\
This message is then followed by Retry or Cancel; Retry has not worked at all with the same error message popping up. There is no error number that I can see. After I finally hit cancel out of frustration, this message shows up:
The installation of QuickTime did not complete successfully. iTunes requires QuickTime.
I think that the first message occurs during the program's attempt to do QuickTime before the iTunes. I tried downloading and upgrading QuickTime separately, but that was also unsuccessful. I do now have an earlier version of QuickTime on my computer, but that is only because I recently added some software (Rosetta Stone to be exact) that requires the 5.0 version and downloads it automatically. I also have tried the troubleshooting tips on the Apple site.
My computer is a Dell, with Windows XP Home Edition. I do have the second Service Pack from Microsoft, and should have all of the latest updates. Please help! I'm getting really frustrated with my computer and have no idea on what to do next.

When you get a message about not being able to access a network location you usually need the Microsoft installer cleanup utility.
Here is a method:
Download a fresh copy of iTunes and the stand alone version of Quicktime (the one without iTunes)
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install Microsoft Installer cleanup utility, there are instructions on the page as well as the download. Note that what you download is the installer not the program – you have to run it to install the program. The installer doesn't give any message to confirm the installation.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
(To run the program – All Programs>>Windows Install)
Now use the following method to remove iTunes and its components:
XP
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
Vista
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
*If you hit a problem with one of the uninstalls don't worry*, carry on with the deleting of files and folders as directed in the method.
When you get to deleting Quicktime files in the system32 folder as advised in the method, you can delete any file or folder with Quicktime in the name.
Restart your PC.
Run the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility. (Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up)
Remove any references you find to the programs you removed - strictly speaking you only need to worry about those programs where the uninstall failed.
If you don’t see an entry for one of the programs that did not uninstall, look out for blank entries or numeric entries that look like version numbers e.g. 7.x for Quicktime or 1.x for Bonjour.
restart your PC
Install the stand alone Quicktime and check that it works.
If it does, install iTunes.

Odd error message

I am getting an odd error message with iTunes:
+The iTunes library file cannot be saved. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation.+
Any ideas why I am getting this message. My iPod never had problems before, and I am the only one who uses the computer.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I too have seen this error message now and again. (Right now as a matter of fact).
Doesn't appear to have any adverse affects on my music library but with over 8,000 songs I may never notice the problems.
Concerned...

TS5376 I did as this article described. The download was going smoothly until I got this error message "Click OK or enter alternate path to folder in installation package containing the file itunes.msi" Where can I get "itunes.msi" ??

I did as this article described. The download was going smoothly until I got this error message "Click OK or enter alternate path to folder in installation package containing the file itunes.msi" Where can I get "itunes.msi" ??

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

Recieving an odd error message...

For the past few days, i have been running into an odd error message whenever i try to update my iPod through iTunes.
The message is "Attempting to copy to disk "Harout's(my name) IP failed. The disk could not be read from or written too."
This always happens during the update for my iPod. It gets to about 10% updated then pulls this message out. I've tried uninstalling iTunes and reinstalling it, with the newest version, got the newest iPod updater, and even restored my iPod and tried it again and nothing has helped.
Do you guys have any idea on what i can do?

May I know whats the issue? I cant see any relevant settings regarding the same on skype. Can anyone help on this ?
Immediate response in highly appreciated.
Thanks,
