One email - two Skype names

I have one email address registered but two Skype names... This means that I have a balance of skype money in two different areas.  Is there a way to merge my accounts?

not sure if Skype can comply with all your requests, you may need to contact customer service to find out.here's how;

  • I want to "merge" two Skype Names that refer to a ...

    I have two Skype names.  I can currently login using the second one, but not the first because I have forgotten the password (I'm not proud of it, but there it is.) 
    I would prefer to use the first, but cannot - when the Forgot PW process sends the token to reset, if ALWAYS refers to the second S. name. 
    How can I use the first S. name (and abandon the second)?
    Thanks for your assistance.

    Try changing the second accounts'(the one you CAN access) E-mail.
    That will make the first account the only one using your E-mail, and you'll be able to recover your password.
    I hope it helps. 

  • Two Skype names one email address

    When I am in Skype I can see my profile in the upper right. But in my contacts I see what appears to be an old version of my account. My profile has my email address in it, and this other contact also has my email address in it. The other contact has a profile picture I recall setting up way back when I used skype a long time ago, and before I had setup a microsoft account.
    Is there a way to get rid of that old contact/account and keep the current microsoft account connected one? I don't want anyone to be confused with the two versions or for me to potentially lose messages that might get sent to the wrong, unused, contact.

    HI,
    There should be no problem
    Hope this helps

  • One email two computers

    Hi Gang,
    I just became a proud owner of MackBook Air. The purpose of this machine is basically a travel computer working with an external HD for storage.
    Now, I use a Gmail account and so far used Mail set as POP on my proper computer. I prefer POP - it just feels more like email, rather than a front-end for a web based mail which is how IMAP feels for me.
    I need (as is: would really like) to setup the Air so that I receive emails on both computers. I want to avoid a situation where emails are read on one OR the other computer.
    Is IMAP on both the only solution? (tell me it's NOT please!)
    Are there any third-party solutions?
    I did some searching before posting here, but did not find an answer.
    TIA

    The way to do this with POP accounts is as follows. When you set up your account in Mail on your MacBook Air, do the following:
    +Mail > Preferences > Accounts > (select your gmail account) > Advanced+
    UNcheck the item called "Remove copy from server after retrieving message"
    Then, when you retrieve email using your MacBook Air, it will copy incoming messages to your MacBook Air but will leave them in place on the server. Your other computer can still retrieve the same messages.
    Limitations:
    If you do this on your MacBook Air but not on your other computer, you will have to be conscious of which computer you are using to retrieve mail; one will delete mail from the server inbox upon retrieval, the other will not.
    If you set this up on both computers, all incoming mail will remain in your gmail server inbox, and you will have to manually manage your gmail inbox separately.
    Keep in mind that POP is only for receiving email and the inbox is the only server folder that messages can be retrieved from.
    +Sent mail+ will be saved only on the computer you send it from - it won't automatically be transferred to your other compouter, and it also will not be saved to your sent mail folder on the gmail server. You could cc: or bcc: yourself, in which case a copy will be sent to your gmail inbox; and from there can be propagated to your other computer via the inbox.

  • Pass retrieval - two accounts only one email addre...

    Hi everyone,
    Somehow I seem to have two Skype names registered to the one email address. Let's call them "One" and "Two". I'm trying to access account One, but there seems to be a password issue. When I go through password recovery, I get sent an email from Skype regarding resetting my password for account Two. I'm not interested in account Two, only account One.
    What's the deal with this! How can I retrieve my password?!
    Thanks.

    Hi, Shawnspider, and welcome to the Community,
    First thing: change your e-mail account's password.
    Secondly, assume control of the other account which you did not create by changing that account's password.
    Then, you can 'delete (remove) the Skype account' which you did not create by clicking on that link, which will take you to Skype Customer Service to complete the process.
    If you experience difficulty reaching Skype Customer Service, try again using a different web browser and choosing a different path through the various drop-down menu options presented. Also, look to approve a pop-up dialogue box which would connect you to start an instant message chat with a customer service agent. If you have pop-ups blocked in your browser settings, this will also impede reaching an agent.

  • 2 skype names with 1 email

    HI!have two skype names registered to 1 email.when click to forgotten passwpr i received an email for only one skype name.but when i open the add contact there appears my second skype name registered to the same email,but when i click forgotten password it doesn't appear in the drop down box.if i delete my first skype name from the email,can i chage the password to the second?thank u

    Hi, Ahmad_h26, and welcome to the Community,
    As bizarre as it sounds, sometimes people do create Skype accounts using other people's e-mail addresses.  Why they would do so, I have no idea -- an account's registered e-mail address is the only way Skype communicates with accountholders.  I can only surmise it is an attempt at identity theft and seeking financial information.
    You may either change the password of the account, thereby assuming control of it, or contact Skype Customer Service to request your e-mail address be dis-associated with the account you did not create/set up.  I would also recommend changing that e-mail address account's password.
    If you choose to take control of the account, you can next request Skype Customer Service remove the account as explained here: 'Can I delete my Skype account?'
    Regards,
    Elaine

  • How to change the Skype name to private

    There are two names on skype, one is the on the profile which we can change. Another one is called skype name which is also the one we sign in with, it's unable to change, but publich can view the name. Is there a way to keep that name (skype name) to private? Thanks.

  • Two accounts on one email address?

    On September 14, I started getting emails from Skype in Hungarian. I translate the message, it says
    Welcome (someones username),
    You have a new voice message!
    All the links in the the email look legit, they all go to the skype.com root domain or subdomain of skype.com. The message also says to log into skype to listen to the message.
    The username in the email is not mine. If I search for the username, it looks like it is a real account.
    How is it possible for someone to sign up to skype with an email address already being used for skype, or how is it possible for someone to change their email address without confirming it is their email address?
    This is a security problem... I could probably reset this users password right now.
    How do I fix this?

    You don't need two accounts. Just use the same one.
    If you need two accounts then get one of the free one available, hotmail, yahoo, gmail, and so forth.

  • My avast! antivirus software is identifying two Trojan viruses on my MacBookPro (Max OSX 10.7.5) that seem to be related to my Outlook for Mac.   An example of one of the file names is:  /.MobileBackups/Computer/2014-06-22-151618/Volume/Us

    My avast! antivirus software is identifying two Trojan viruses on my MacBookPro (Max OSX 10.7.5) that seem to be related to my Outlook for Mac.
    An example of one of the file names is:  /.MobileBackups/Computer/2014-06-22-151618/Volume/Users/stevekreitner/Documents /Microsoft User Data/Office 2011 Identities/Main Identity [Backed up 2014-06-22 12.48.35]/Data Records/Message Attachments/0T/0B/0M/9K/x26_9605.olk14MsgAttach
    Any suggestions on how to locate and remove these virsues?

    Actually, you can delete the entire Main Identity folder for Outlook that has a backup date in brackets [xxx] as part of its name since that was created when you used the Microsoft Database Utility to rebuild your email database. The folder that is only named Main Identity is the one in use. The other is now nothing.
    That should be true but sometimes users are in the wrong Identity. Outlook 'forgets' what is supposed to be the main default Identity and opens in the wrong one. You need to check the database file in the Identity to see date modified to know for sure.
    Typically, after rebuilding you delete the rebuild after a bit when you are satisfied with the rebuild. There should only be one Identity in the Identities folder. However, most users don't understand what to do with the copy that is made and never deletes anything.

  • Skype names under associated with an email account...

    Hello, I am wondering how can I check how many Skype names I have under my email address. The only way I have found is clicking on forgot password request a password change and upon clocking the verification email see the Skype names registered. Is there an easiest way?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Insert this email address into the contacts search box. You should see now all the accounts registered with this email address, apart from the one you are currently on.

    Hello,
    I wanted to know if anybody could help me with this... There is a yellow number two "2" looking symbol between the battery icon and the time, and ever since it's been there, I can't make any calls, not even to my mailbox.
    Whenever I dial a number and press the call button, the only thing that appears is a sign that says "Error in Connection".
    I would really appreciate any advices on how to get rid of the symbol and be able to make calls again!

  • I have two Skype accounts on the same email; why c...

    I have two Skype accounts, and both are connected to the same Microsoft account. One is for my online life, and the other is for those who I care about in my offline life; why can I only access the (original) account for my online 'friends'? If I try and log in using my Skype Name and password, it won't let me. I've tried resetting the password, but it sends it to my gmail, not to my outlook.
    Does anyone know how I can log onto my other account through my microsoft account?
    EDIT: I've also just noticed that my profile thing for Skype Community is what my Skype should be showing, but it's not...

    You can have content from two iTunes Store accounts in one library, and multiple libraries on a computer.

    please help me. 
    i have a skype account which tied to one email address.
    but i receive another email from skype that another person is using my email adress with another skype name.
    how do i resolve this?
    when i click forget my skype name and put down my email instead, skype sent me an email to my email adress with a skype name token but not my skype name.
    but when i log in using my original skype name, i can see clearly see my email is correct.

    using your email address, send an email to [email protected] and request them to unlink the unknown account from your email address.

  • One account and two user names??? HOW??

    Hi,
    First of all, I own 5 Macs in my company, from iMac 24" to Macmini, the entire line. Use Macs since Classic model, so I'm not totally dumb... or may be I am
    It started with a problem syncing iCal and Contacts. The database files became corrupted. Checked the logs and it seemed an permissions problem. try to fixed but the problem returned.
    Of course I deleted iCal and contact files at Library, create new one and imported from backup - the same problem happened.
    Then I started to dig the problema and when I looked at my keychains I found that I have two user names "sharing" the same user account...how?? one is marcio and other is Marcio Esteves.
    I can't find any reference to this second user name apart from keychain. Tryied to delete the keychain and create a new one but the same... When trying to fix the keychain it show me this:
    Verification started
    Checking keychain configuration for marcio (user ID=502)
    Home directory is /Users/marcio
    Checked login keychain
    Checked default keychain
    Checked contents of ~/Library/Keychains/login.keychain
    No problems found
    Verification completed
    Verification started
    Checking keychain configuration for Marcio Esteves (user ID=502)
    Home directory is /Users/marcio
    Checked login keychain
    Checked default keychain
    Checked contents of ~/Library/Keychains/login.keychain
    No problems found
    Verification completed
    Of course I can format the HD and re-install from the scratch but I'm curious because, as far as I know, user names and accounts can not be duplicated.
    The only thing that occurs to me is when I bought this machine - MB pro 2.4 - I imported the account from my previous MB pro AFTER change user name from "marcio" to "Marcio Esteves", keeping the same home directory name as "marcio" (as still today).
    So, how can I fix it without formatting and installing everything again??

    Every account on a Mac has two names. These names are called different things depending on the version of the OS and whether you are looking at the System Preferences|Accounts panel or the Workgroup Manager on a server. The "Name" or "Full Name" and the "Short Name" or "Account Name". The short name is the typical unix username. and the full name is just that, your full name. The Mac allows you to use either of these in any of the GUI dialog boxes that ask for your user name and password. At the command line I think you can only use your short name. I see that in OS X 10.6, once you create an account, you cannot see the short name in the System Preferences|Accounts panel any longer.
    At a command line (in the Terminal application for example) you can type id or whoami to see your short name.
    I think it is probably normal for entries in your keychain to refer to both or either of these names.
    As for creating new accounts and copying files I think you should be able to do most of that when logged in as an admin user (which you don't normally do, right?).
    Does that help?
