Skype always online at phone

My skype on desktop is always invisible. Whenever I check skype on my phone its online/visible.
when I do it invisible and close skype and come back It shows me visible..
I dont want to appear online but I want to see all messages sent to me on my phone.
I also noticed if I open skype on my pc and phone at the sametime my skype on desktop appears online aswell. I have to turn it invisible again.

Try the /showplaces and /remotelogout chat commands.

Solution for SKYPE ALWAYS ONLINE

incognitoSkype wrote:
It's a bug like everything that is part of Microsoft.
The solution is: Unlink your Skype account and your Microsoft account
My problem came when I logged from Skype for Windows 8. I was asked do I want to link my accounts without knowing the consequences. After I saw that terrible thing called Skype for Windows 8 I searched the Net for desktop version. But what I found is that I appear always online. After chat with the Skype support I got nothing. So I found in Skype Community that unlinking the Skype and Microsoft accounts worked. I tried it and it worked for me too. Unless Microsoft fix that problem unlinking is the only way.
How do I unlink my Skype and Microsoft or Facebook accounts?

This is the right answer. The problem started happening yesterday when I linked the two accounts and now it is resolved after unlinking them again. Shame on you Microsoft!
For you guys who are not managing to get a result from this solution it probably is because you did not go to your config page (see above in the quoted message) to find out if your accounts were linked or not!

@architgrover, the way that it should work is when you run /remotelogout on your PC (or Mac, AFAIK), all other clients will be logged out of MS's cloud, which is what shows people as fake-online.
Are you sure that doing that and then running /showplaces still shows the Android client as live? It really shouldn't. Likewise, using the formal Logoff menu (lower left in the Skype Android client) should have the same effect. Simply turning off your phone or going into Airplane Mode does not, which is a major design flaw but something we'll have to continue to live with.

Correct - third party Apps cannot be on in the background. It can be always on - just leave it as the only thing running.
I can't believe apple didn't think about that.
They did and its clearly spelled out in the literature that it is not a multitasking device.

Nope - not at all. No multitasking. One application at a time only.

There is no problem, its just that you didnt read before buying. The iPhone does not multitask and thats all there is to say.

Always ´online´

Recently my skype contacts have noticed that i am always online eventhough i close my session after using Skype. I thought perhaps i left my session open after using on a different device so i changed my passwrod but the problem persists. Today a contact sent me an email asking why i didnt pick up as she was calling me all day despite the fact that i didnt log on all day! I have checked setting but cant seem to find the solution! Any help appreciated

I've checked different posts related to the same issue and see how your response is always the same. While the solution works well for some, it doesn't work for others and I would highly appreciate it if you took the efforts to look into those cases as well. I've done the steps you provided but am still facing the same issue. Would you please actually investigate this rather than copy-paste the same "solution" always???

When I try to sync my music on my iPhone 4 I have a tab at the top that says 'on this iPhone' The music in that tab is always on my phone but does not show in my itunes library. How can I get it into my library?

When I try to sync my music on my iPhone 4 I have a tab at the top that says 'on this iPhone'. This is at the end of all the other tabs like info, ringtones, music etc. The music in that tab is always on my phone but does not show in my itunes library. How can I get it into my library? It doesn't sync either.

The new iTunes has a somewhat different look from the previous version. You can get the old look back if you prefer it by doing View > Show Sidebar in iTunes. Or you can adapt to the new look.

If the iPhone has been taken offline by power-off, disabling 3G/4G and WiFi or erasing data & settings, It can no longer be located by you.

Calling skype to a mobile phone outside the origin...

I have a portuguese phone and I am abroad - in Andorra.
If someone calls me from skype, which rate will be applied? From Portugal to Andorra, or From Portugal to Portugal?
And what about my Mobile Phone, will I have to support roaming costs?
Thank you.

Calling skype to a mobile phone outside the original country

your partner's mobile is registered in the UK
calls forwarded from Skype to that UK number are covered (as you know)
as is, forwarded calls would still be going to the UK number, and he would pay roaming charges from his mobile carrier for the priviledge of answering these calls while abroad (iow, has nothing to do with Skype)
if he got a local SIM for his mobile phone while abroad, then Skype could be forwarded to that number for free if he added a Skype subscription that covers SkypeOut calls to the number associated with that local SIM (in your example this would be Unlimited US/Canada sub)

Skype for Business - Windows Phone app released

The Skype team arepleased to announce the availability of the Skype for Business app for Windows Phone.
Skype for Business - Windows Phone appWhat’s new—intuitive interface, more emoticons, improved server communicationsIf you are familiar with the Lync app for Windows Phone, you’ll notice a number of enhancements in the new app. The most noticeable differences right off the bat are the Skype for Business brand and UI, which is intuitive and familiar if you happen to use Skype in your personal communications. We’ve also revamped emoticons, which now offers over 100 emoticons to land your message visually.
We have improved how the app and the server handle conversation notifications. Once you’re notified of a new conversation on your phone, the other clients you have logged in won’t be able to grab the conversation and prevent you from...

I need to access and use Skype from overseas, and am considering buying a a Chinese phone called the X10. It's an unlocked quad-band GSM phone - which is fine - supports GPRS & WiFi, but is not 3G. It supports Java but is not Android. Can anyone tell me what I should be looking for in features that will allow Skype use, and what I should avoid? Many thanks. Steve
You probably want an Android or iPhone for use with the Skype mobile apps. Phones with the Symbian operating system - mostly Nokia phones - can also use a Skype app, but lacks some of the features available in the Android or iPhone versions. If you are able to confine your use to Skype to WiFi, not having 3G or 4G/LTE on your mobile phone is probably not an issue.
I have a Nokia N8 mobile phone, which uses the Symbian operating system. Nice phone, compatible with GSM/UMTS networks around the world. The Skype app for it is not great, but works on WiFi or 3G data networks. What I ended up doing was also purchasing an iPod Touch, which is compatible with apps for the iPhone, and a WiFI hotspot app for my N8. Then I use Skype on the iPod, connecting to the Internet through the N8's hotspot app via WiFi. It takes two devices in this case to use Skype, but I'm making use of the better Skype app on the iPod over the N8. Or I can just use the iPod if I have access to WiFi wherever I happen to be.
Hope that helps!

Why is my iphone 4 deleting contacts automatically? They sometimes re-appear later but not always. My phone lost 1000 or so contacts today alone!

Any suggestions?

Robert, to clarify, I have the contacts section of icloud switched off. This was done some weeks ago in an attempt to stop this phenomenon. Didn't work. At one stage yesterday I had 1400 contacts but now it has swelled to 4500. Strange!

Skype WiFi for Windows Phone

How do I download Skype WiFi on my Windows phone, when I tap download Skype Wifi from my Windows phone it goes to https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/skype-wifi/id444529922?mt=8

2014-08-04. Yesterday i was in great need of Skype WIFI on Heathrow. But no! Microsoft/Skype still don't have Skype wifi for Windows Phone but has it for all competing mobile platforms! How does that make sense? If MS won't support Windows Phone, who will??
Maybe it is as it should be? I had this discussion with a gentleman that was sincerely convinced, there has been a major policy change at Microsoft HQ regarding Skype. He belived the buy of Skype insyead really was a kind of a hostile buy, in order to close Skype as it it is shaped today, instead in a future introduce a new type of coomunication programme similar to Skype, but totally different and more profitable and when launched a closure/abandoment of Skype will be done.
I don't know, but it was a really well suited gentleman...
