Skype Automatically Removing Recently Added Conact...

Operating System: Windows 10 & Windows 7
Skype Version: 7.0.0.102 & 6.?
(Maybe helpful?) Note: I have Over 5,500 Contacts, but this issue just started recently.
Anytime I get a new contact request and add a user, soon after chatting with them, Skype automatically removes them from my list and a (?) icon is left neer their name.
Case 1:
New pending contacts which which to add add me are removed seconds after I add them.
I click the "Accept" button, and within seconds they are automatically removed from my contact list.
Case 2:
Existing contacts are sometimes removed, and I'm left with an "Add to Contacts" button for contacts which I haven't even removed.
After clicking "Add to Contacts" for this case, the request is sent, but soon after they accept or we chat a bit, they are removed again.
I have this same issue on two machines, Windows 7 and Windows 10, latest Skype and also some older version, around 6.2 or so. Let me know any other information you need to assist or questions.
I use skype for business and am slowly making the switch to livechat after being unable to resolve this issue.

Hi,
There is a limitation of the Skype contact list around 8000 contacts and it seems you've reached this limit. As a result whenever you add a new contact you'll either have the contact staying in pending and not getting added even after it was accepted or you'll lose contact authentication with another one. I would suggest you do a clean up of your contacts list or create a second new Skype account. Take a look here at how you can stay signed in on multiple Skype accounts on Skype for Windows desktop: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA829/how-can-i-run-multiple-skype-accounts-on-windows-desktop

Remove recently added play list?

I need to try and claw back some space on my 160 classic. Is it possible to remove the recently played list? I never use it, nor do i really use the recently added list either. The only ones i use are top 25 and top rated. Would removing either of this lists give me back any space?

Removing playlists won't free up storage space on your iPod. Playlists don't contain actual songs, just links to songs.
If you want to free up space, you need to delete the song files themselves.

IPhoto (OSX) Publish to Recently Added (iOS)

I'm using iPhoto on Mavericks and Photo on iOS 8. All my photos from my iOS devices are syncing to Recently Added across iOS devices. None of my photos from iPhoto on Mavericks (OSX) are being added automatically to Recently Added on iOS (unless they were taken on an iOS device).
In other words, the photos taken with my Nikon DSLR that I imported through iPhoto do not automatically show up on my devices.
I want them to.
Thoughts?

Do you have Automatic upload ticked in iPhoto prefs > iCloud?
Thoughts?
Tick the box above and/or wait until Yosemite & the new Photos app comes out in a few weeks.

Has the playlist 'recently added' been removed?

The playlist 'recently added' has disappeared. I was just wondering if this was part of new iTunes or not?
It used to be really handy - especially on iPod/ipad

The link to the service has been removed from the knowledge base. The chat is no longer available due to scaling back.
I am sorry for the inconvenience and I if you have any other questions we will do our best to help.

How to get a "Recently Added" playlist that automatically adds new songs you buy to that folder?

I accidently synced my iPhone with my iPad and now my "Recently Added" folder is missing.

Go to Controls menu.
Select Shuffle and set to Songs.

Why are my videos showing up in "Recently Added" but not in TV Shows or Movies?

I didn't have a problem adding videos to iTunes for several months, but now videos are not appearing in the right places. For some reason, they appear in the Recently Added playlist, but they are not showing up in the Movies section (which is where they had all gone before). The video plays fine if I play the file from Recently Added.
The files are mp4 format converted with Handbrake, which I have used for a long time without issue.
2011 iMac OSX 10.7.3 & iTunes 10.6.1 (7)
My research into the issue has found that some users experience metadata info missing from files. I ran some of the recommended programs that automatically add metadata to videos, but still had no luck adding. The issue is with every single mp4 file I add, and it just suddenly started.
If I click "Get Info" on a file, they are listed as being sorted as a Movie. If I change it to TV Show or Music Video then click OK, no changes are saved and file goes no where.
I get no Error Message when adding to iTunes.
I hope I have provided enough information. I'm eager to hear your answers!

Update:
Still having issues getting new videos to show in the "Movies" or "TV Shows" categories of iTunes. However, last night I discovered that Home Sharing on my iPad lists the newly imported videos in the Movies category (iPad & Video app). So, the files aren't corrupt or anything like that. It just seems like I need to 'refresh' the Movies page. Is that possible?
Since I can see the files on the iPad now, I want to remove the extra copies of movies I imported. But, since I can only find them in Playlists, how can I delete them?

I cannot access the recently added folder in Instagram on my iPad. Any ideas why?

when trying to access photos on my iPad in Instagram I can access my shared photo streams but not the recently added folder and the photos taken on my iPhone. Any ideas?

Hello wintergreenchip,
The troubleshooting steps detailed below can help get your Photo Stream working correctly.
Your device will keep up to 1000 photos, even if they're older than 30 days. Photos older than 30 days are removed from the iCloud server, so your devices might not have the same photos, depending on when you enabled My Photo Stream. Due to storage limitations, your Apple TV might display only your most recent photos.
If you want to have the most current photos in My Photo Stream on each of your devices and delete the older photos:
If there are any photos in My Photo Stream that you want to keep, save them to your Camera Roll, then back up your Camera Roll and other data using iCloud or iTunes.
Turn My Photo Stream off in Settings > iCloud > Photos (or Photo Stream in iOS 6).
Confirm that you wish to Delete Photos.
Turn My Photo Stream back on. iCloud will automatically push your stored photos to your device.
Repeat these steps for each device.

Disable Skype Automatic Answering!!

Skype automatically answers my incoming calls, even though I have unchecked "Answer Incoming Calls Automatically" under "Call Settings."
Even stranger is that this happens for every other call. Sometimes, voicemail will pick up, and sometimes, Skype will just automatically answer.
This is a maddening scenario.
I have my voicemail set up so that "Send unanswered calls to voicemail" is checked, and that calls are supposed to be sent to voicemail after 20 seconds, if I :reject a call" or am "already on a call."
I have one app that I use, and that is PrettyMay Call Recorder.
I had a subscription and an online phone number for a year, and never had this problem, even with the PrettyMay app. When my subscription and phone number ran out, I waited a few days before renewing. I don't know if that has anything to do with it, but this is driving me insane.
I've tried to update Skype twice within the past few days, and the updates failed. I am still running 5.5.0.124
How do I stop having Skype automatically answer my calls?

I do. I have MP3 Skyupe Recorder 3.1 and btplayerctrl.exe (bluetooth).
I rarely have the skype recorder on and have had it long before this began happenig.
I have in the more recent past started using AfterShock Bluetooth. Bluetooth selection at times will reset itself to regular speakers and microphone. I find that I have to connect the bluetooth, open skype, make sure the microphone and speaker are set to bluetooth. Then shut down skype and bring it back up. Then the selection will stick with bluetooth. I find that windows loads the bluetooth drivers every instance a bluetooth is reconnected. I am now on instance 68. It is clear that bluetooth has not been perfectly addapted in windows 7 as it has been for my galaxy s3 and ipad.
I thought it may be google voice as I had been routing calls in but after removing google voice it is clearly not it as I am still getting automatic answering.
I have not removed skype recorder from my computer.

Delete songs from iTunes library from "recently added" playlist

can you please add a function that removes songs from both the entire library and the recently added playlist by simply right clicking a song while in the "Recently Added" playlist that has the "Delete" function. this is very simple and would make iTunes that much more user friendly.
thanks!
i have no idea where else to submit suggestions like this, apple people aren't user-friendly enough.

We are only other users, such as yourself.
You can send suggestions to Apple here -> http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html
Press *Shift Delete* to delete songs from a playlist and also from the library.
(from your signature block)
pc, duh
Not really "duh". I have a pc and it is a Macintosh.
The idea is to put correct info in your signature to help with problems you may be having As an example, if you had problems with your iTunes library disappearing and your signature showed "Sony Vaio", immediately we would know the Sony media software is the problem.
why do you care
So we don't have to ask when you post a question.

How do I get my ipod to play a playlist from reverse order? (Start with recently added song instead of first added)

How do I get my ipod to play a playlist from reverse order? (Start with recently added song instead of first added)
So I'm adding new songs to a very old playlist? Is there anyway that when I add them, they automatically go to top of playlist? How about getting one song to the top of a playlist. That drag to arrange function is very annoying because it is slow and the playlist does not scroll up very well on a PC.

Make a new playlist by pressing the little plus button at the very lower left corner of iTunes. An new playlist will appear in the Source pane called "untitled playlist". While the name is highlighted, you can change it to whatever you want. Drag all of the tracks from all the albums that comprise a single book to that playlist. Sync that playlist to your iPod.

I used to drag and drop newly loaded CD's from Recently Added to one of my iPod Classic playlists. I have no idea how to do this with the new version of iTunes. I thought perhaps checking Sync might give me a clue but it warned me Syncing would wipe conte

I used to drag and drop music loaded from CD's from the Recently Added folder to a Playlist on my iPods Classic. Can't see how to do this with new iTunes version. Probably need to sync somehow but when I checked on Sync it warned me it would wipe out my iPod contents. Don 't know why Apple makes something that used to be simple so difficult. Can't even figure out how to display both my library and iPod contents on same screen.

Hey joshuafromisr,
If you resintall iTunes, it should fix the issue. The following document will go over how to remove iTunes fully and then reinstall. Depending on what version of Windows you're running you'll either follow the directions here:

Majority of recently added tracks won't sync (error -50); previously added tracks sync fine

Argh. I have a 5th Gen iPod Classic (80GB) and, until very recently, it's been functioning quite well. Now I am getting error "'iTunes could not copy {song name} to the iPod {iPod name} because an unknown error occured (-50)." when trying to sync songs I have recently added to iTunes from several sources. However, a few recently added tracks successfully synced.
In particular, there are numerous albums and songs recently purchased from Amazon that do not sync, although they play fine in iTunes. In addition, a free song downloaded from Last.FM does not sync. I also tried ripping a CD to AAC, and the majority of the songs do not sync. (The first time I tried to sync the songs ripped from CD, only one track synced. The second time, a second track synced as well. 36 additional tracks have failed to sync).
Note that there is nothing different about the format (codec, bitrate) of these newly added tracks. Tracks added a month or so ago with identical specs and from the same sources were able to sync without a problem.
A free song downladed today from the iTunes store did sync, however.
I am on XP SP3 (up to date) and have tried all of the following:
* Updating iTunes to latest version (10.6.3.25)
* Uninstalling then reinstalling iTunes
* Updating firmware on my iPod (was 1.2, upgraded to 1.3)
* Performing "Restore" on iPod and freshly re-syncing all tracks
* Enabling the "Enable disk use" option on the iPod
* Updating the Windows registry as directed in this tech bulletin: <http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1539>
* Error checked the iPod using the Windows "Error-checking" utility (under Properties-->Tools) - no errors reported.
Further reference:
* "Convert higher bit rate songs to (rate) AAC" is not enabled on the iPod.
* There is still about 32GB free on the iPod after syncing all of my library except the new tracks
* Only antivirus software installed is Microsoft Security Essentials, which is up to date and reports no infections
What is going on?? Approximately 9600+ tracks that were added to iTunes before my recent difficulties (including tracks from many different sources) synced flawlessly when I performed the Restore. The only tracks creating the problem are tracks added very recently to iTunes.
Is it possible that my iTunes library is corrupt? Can I rebuild or repair it without losing anything? Should I follow the steps in this tech bulletin <http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1451>?

Okay, I have a partial understanding of the problem, and more importantly a workaround.
I think the Amazon MP3 Downloader was indeed the culprit. It is configured to automatically add your downloaded tracks to the iTunes library. I think the most recent version of this application has some kind of bug and did not add the tracks to the library properly.
It is kind of a subtle bug, because the tracks were added well enough to see them and play them in iTunes. However, I think the filepath that was added to the iTunes library was . . . messed up somehow? In iTunes, the paths for the offending tracks looked something like this:
F:/Music/AMAZON~1/BEEGEE~1/NUMBER~1/01-MAS~1.MP3
It is still strange to me is that rebuilding the library did not fix the problem, but regardless, I found a way to get sync working:
(1) Made sure "Keep iTunes Media folder organized" was enabled under Edit --> Preferences --> Advanced Preferences
(2) Used File --> Add Folder To Library . . . to add the folder where the Amazon MP3 Downloader put my downloads
This reorganized my Music file into the standard Artist/Album structure. However, the old, nonworking tracks were still in the library.
(3) Used File --> Display Duplicates, then sorted by "Album by Artist"
(4) Manually deleted all the nonworking duplicate entries. (You can tell which one is the problem--when you click on a problematic entry, an exclamation point in a grey circle will appear next to the track name)
After this, everything synced perfectly, including the remaining tracks I ripped from the CD. My file paths for the recent Amazon downloads now look like this:
F:\Music\Bee Gees\Number Ones\01 Massachusetts.mp3
Hope this helps someone else, and I hope the problem is fixed in a future software release from Amazon.

Camera Roll vs Recently Added

Since 'camera roll' has been replaced with 'recently added' on my iPhone, I can no longer distinguish between pictures I've taken on my iPhone and pictures that are being displayed from my iMac's iPhoto. I don't want my new iPhoto pictures automatically streamed to my iPhone. Can I turn this feature off?

Disable "Automatic Upload" in the Preferences in iPhoto on your Mac.
Preferences > iCloud > My Photo Stream : Uncheck "Automatic Upload"
