Skype 7.4 still not 100%

Dear Skype
I installed 6.22 last October and immediately reverted to 6.21. I downloaded 7.4 today (offline installer which by the way you should make MUCH more accessible). It seems to me that the desktop UI is now better, and you have corrected many problems. However, it needs further improvement:
I can only see 17 contacts compared to 21 on 6.21, while I would like to see 25 or even 30. While I have a touch 14" computer I mainly use a mouse and icon spacing is not important.
The lefthand pane is FAR wider than necessary - it should be easy for you to give us control over its width. I note MS also limits column width in File Explorer to 80 pixels - another total pain.
The top part of the lefthand pane also takes far more space than needed.
I would be REALLY grateful if you could address these issues in a future release. I plan to try 7.4 for a couple of weeks before deciding whether to revert to 6.21, or take some other posters' suggestion and try Google Talk. So far (after an hour), I am hopeful I will be able to stick with it.

DFSR- Initial sync shows completed(eventID 4104), but still not 100%

We are running a 2008R2 domain, but the DFSR members for this replication group are both 2003 R2 and 2008 R2. I have 4 different servers that all had similar(not 100% exact) contents in the folder before DFS. I setup DFS
in a Multi-purpose and full-mesh model and chose one of them to be the primary server. I noticed that the other members receive an eventID 4104(Initial Replication complete), but still do not have some files that exist on the primary server. Actually,
all 3 member servers have the 4104, but 2 do not have some old files and 2(including primary) do have the older files. These are not special files at all and I do not think those files were coped recently. Does anyone have any ideas of how a server
can throw a 4104, but still not be 100% in sync with the primary? The local System account does have full permissions on the old files that are outstanding on some of the members.
Dan Heim

Hi Dan Heim,
Please create a diagnostic report for DFS Replication, it will give you an overview about all files on all DFSR member servers.
In additional, check your staging size is set high enough on the replicated folder. If the staging folder not being big enough, DFS will be constantly trying to reduce the staging folder to be within the limits.
You could refer to the articles below to know more about staging size:

My Skype number is still not working please check

Wajid.zareen2

One possible reason why Skype Number does not work is "it already expired". Skype always send email notification on the primary email address of the account about the order confirmation, status of your account/subscription.
I would suggest that you do the following to see the status of your Skype Number:
1. Check the inbox of your primary email address on the account. Skype may have sent you an email notification about the status of your Skype Number.
2. Log in to your account and see if the order for your Skype Number renewal has been delivered. When youlog in to your account in the website, go to Billing and Payments then click on Purchase History. You will see the status of your Online Number renewal, if you dont see the order as Delivered, that means the payment for your Skype Number was not successful.
If you have any other concerns and questions about your Skype Number, I would suggest that you contact Skype Live Support for real time assistance:
Skype Live Support Link:
https://support.skype.com/support_selection
Here's how to get to Skype Live Support:
1. Sign in to your account using that link.
2. Choose Calling in Choose a help topic, then Online Numbers(SkypeIn) in Choose a related problem. The click on Next.
3. Click on Text Chat Support
4. Finally, click on Start
After following the steps, you should be connected to a Live Chat Support Specialist in no time.

My iPad recharges in 4 hours 97%, I want him to replace an iPad Air (my iPad is an iPad Retina Display) but I have my iPad not even a year! Helpp!! {I'm 10}

Unplug the charger and then replug. Will probably charge to 100%.

i havnt changed my passcose and using the same passcode which i have been using since ages , its still not working, and i am 100 percent sure i am using the correct passcode ?.,

Either way the result is the same... if you forgot (or don't know) your passcode, restore the device from backup on the last computer it was synced with when the passcode was turned on... this will remove the passcode. If you do not have access to the last computer it was synced with, you will have to force it into recovery mode & restore as a new device.

Skype number still not working

I am have been subscribing to a Skype number, but when I call it an automated female voice answers the number despite that I have been trying to reset it by switching Skype privacy settings. When I call from Skype to my phone a caller id number that I don't know shows on my phone.

I had to install Dell Wireless 1702 WiFi +
Bluetooth Driver
The wireless adapter was defined by this driver, however, the Bluetooth still has an exclamation mark in front of it, and when the Dell WLAN and Bluetooth client installation finished, a pop up message said that Windows couldn't install the device
well, although there was a folder added in documents folder named 'Bluetooth Folder'
Yes, the Bluetooth was named with 'Generic Bluetooth adapter' before installing 'Driver above'. However, after installing the driver above, the Bluetooth adapter named with ' Dell wireless 1702 Bluetooth v3.0". But as you see it's
still not working will.
The sceen shot shows the device manger before installing Dell
Wireless 1702 WiFi + Bluetooth Driver
These screen shots shows the device manger after installing Dell
Wireless 1702 WiFi + Bluetooth Driver
I've lit windows detect the operating program for this device on the internet, it said "Windows has detected that the operating program of this device is up to date. As this screenshot shows.
What should I do because nothing lift to try? If you have a look at the ninth drivers in my previous message, you will see that no other drivers for Bluetooth lift.
Also, I have tried to install Intel
Centrino Wireless-N 1030 WiFi Driver
But I have been told that "the installation is blocked', This package of installation cannot be installed on your system' I don't know what this
means, is it because Dell Wireless 1702 WiFi +
Bluetooth Driver is being installed
Could you please take some of your preciout time out to read carefully my points below to finish this problem?
first:
Yes, if you had a look at my first post, you would have seen that I really have downloaded and installed the drivers suitable for bluetooth, which was only Dell
Wireless 1702 WiFi + Bluetooth Driver, which made the bluetooth recognized by Windows 7(64Bit). However, the bluetooth in the device manager still has an exclamation mark as it is shown in the device manager.
I don't have any other drviers which can do more than the what Dell
Wireless 1702 WiFi + Bluetooth Driver did because I have tried all the drivers listed under 'Network', exept the what are for Etherent.
Yes, when I have tried adding the bluetooth between two laptops(Mohammad and Nasreen). the bluetooth was added for both laptops as you see in these screenshots below:
The Bluetooth devices of Nasreen's laptop whose bluetooth is having some problems in Device mangage.
The Bluetooth devices of Mohammad's laptop whosse Bluetooh is defined well in device manager.
But there is still problem in the device managre as shown in the screenshot listed before.
Second: (Important) That when I want to send files or recieving between two bluetooth added in either laptop, I could send them. Also, when I open the Mohammad's bluetooth added in Nansreen's laptop( screenshot
below), I can show what is inside it.
However, when I open the the Nasreen's bluetooth addd in Mohammad's laptop, I noticed no reponse at all because as you see that disconnected is written in fornt "Nasreen-Pc" as this screenshot:
Although sometimes Nasreen-Pc gets connected as screenshot below, but I am still not able to open the Bluetooth folder of Nasreen-pc from Mohammad-pc. When trying to do that, no response is there.
In other times, Nasreen-pc gets connected for a while, but it comes back disconnected.
Third:: I noticed that the name of Laptop whose Bluetooth was added listed in 'My computer' for the laptop whose Bluetooth is having some problems in the device manager.(First Screen shot below) However,
the name of the laptop whose Bluetooth is having problems wasn't listed on other laptop's "my computer"(Second Screen shot below)
Finally: : when I clicked "right-click" on "Nasreen-PC" and then clicking on "detecting and troublshooting issues", I found that windows informed me that :
But which driver should I reinstall because I have already installed the Dell
Wireless 1702 WiFi + Bluetooth Driver almost twice?
A man should convert his anger and sadness into strength to continue living in this life.

Certain driver packages contain drivers from some of the essential services only and for additional services, separate drivers must be installed. Additionally, the service is installed only if a compatible device is installed (or paired).
Therefore, you are seeing the error.
If you are using the Bluetooth L2CAP Interface and Bluetooth Remote Control services and not able to install the services, you can try unpairing the device, restart the PC, pair the device and then check. If that too fails, you need to install a suitable
driver, sometimes even other OEM drivers solve the issue. You can Bing/Google about this. You can also contact Dell Support for more information.
Balaji Kundalam
Thanks a lot,
I really didn't understand what you mean with in your first part the service is installed only if a compatible device is installed (or paired).
The Bluetooth is integrated with
the laptop, then where other services will come from, all service are related to Bluetooth.
If there are some additional services not related to Bluetooth,
then how can I either let them functioning well or disable them in order to get rid of the yellow exclamation mark
on the name of my laptop in the Device and printers.
Also, I really have installed a
BCBT7(Broadcom Bluetooth) for HP which really defined the same Bluetooth issue,
Device manager after installing the entire setup of driver BCBT7(Broadcom Bluetooth) on HP laptop
but when trying to install the same
BCBT7(Broadcom Bluetooth) on Dell, I faced the error below, although there is an icon for Bluetooth in
the system tray. Also, the Bluetooth is integrated as
you have seen in the device manager.
You didn't answer me: Third:: I noticed that the name of Laptop whose Bluetooth was added listed in 'My computer' for the laptop whose
Bluetooth is having some problems in the device manager.(First Screen shot below) However, the name of the laptop whose Bluetooth is having problems wasn't listed on other laptop's "my computer"(Second Screen shot below)

Iphone dropping wifi then reconnects while on skype or viber but not netflix

while on call in skype or viber at home, my iphone 4 would drop the VOIP call, wifi icon immediately switches back to 3G then after 2 seconds switches back to wifi again(I never have to go connect again manually, it always comes back by itself). All happens without any intervention, and once the wifi icon comes back i can dial skype call again. This could happen 3 or 4 times on a 30 mins skype/viber call.
I have a 1st gen 3G iPad as well and I use it to watch movies on netflix, it has never dropped the wifi like that even after watching movies for more than an hour. Its just very strange. I've search around the internet and people who have iphone wifi drop problems always have to go reconnect to wifi manually or restart the phone to connect, which is not my case. I've also tried resetting the network settings on the iphone, didn't help.
I have 2 PCs, a Macbook pro, and a PS3, all using the same wifi connection, and like the ipad none of them have any problems with the wifi at all (not all connected a the same time, i usually have the MBP and the 2 iOS devices connected at all times). And for the iPhone, the wifi drop seems to isolate to Skype and Viber calls only. Anyone have any idea how to fix this? by the way, i have never tried VOIP call on other wifi networks other than my house, so I don't know if this is because something is wrong with my equipment at home. VOIP call on 3G network when wifi is not available doesn't have any problem.
I have a AT&T iphone4 on 4.3.2, wifi is through a Linksys router (g i think), I'm also using an AT&T microcell that 70% of the time doesn't even show up on my iphone. Thanks!

I have the same issue with my Iphone4, never had this with my Iphone 3gs. I have tried a different router (I have a d-link and a netgear) and no difference. I read on another forum that bluetooth might interfere. Yesterday I ran a test and after I turn bluetooth off I did not have any dropped Skype calls. before this my Skype call would drop or I would have a really bad connection about 8min or so into the call. I think this is because the iphone will start up bluetooth and it interferes with wifi. I am not 100% sure this cures the problem but it might.
Marcel.

Skype Problem - Latest version not working, Please...

So, I cannot install the latest version of Skype. It's really frustrating as every time I try to install it, an error comes up saying ''Failed to get proc address for GetLogicalProcessorInformation (KERNEL32.dll)''
- I tried opening Skype after installation by clicking on the icon, but the same thing happens.
- I have also tried uninstalling and installing Skype several times, but nothing works.
- I downloaded the Service Pack 3, as I have read about this problem and some websites recommended doing this, but again nothing worked, same error appeared.
- I also cannot download older versions of Skype, because whenever I install them, it takes me to the login page and so I put my login details but it doesn't let me through, and it says that they have signed me out because I have an outdated version of Skype.
Please help, as I don't know what to do, I tried everything and there is no solution.
Help will be much appreciated!
Solved!

Scroll-bar STILL not working right in 10.6.1 update

The scroll-bar is STILL NOT working right in the 10.6.1 update. I am not able to click anywhere on the scroll-bar and have the navigation go there. I have to drag the blamed thing where ever I want it to go. This problem only exist with the recent iTunes 10.6.x updates.

I have the new MacBook Pro 2010, Dell 3007WFP. No mirroring problemsat that or higher res. I was chagrined, however, to find out that while my 2007 15" MacBook Pro had no problems driving the Dell 30", the 2010 17" requires the Dual Link cable for $100 extra. ;>(
But it works fine.
