Skype cant connect on Mac

Hi,
I am currently using the newest version of skype on my mac book air and after the update I could log in just fine, although just today I tried uninstalling and even changing my password on my phone to login to my skype but the message "skype cant connect" keeps poping up!!! help!!!

What exactly is the version of your currently installed Skype? In Skype go to Help -> About Skype.
Also, what do you see when you open this link in your Internet Explorer?

P.S. Please, don’t say that you are not using Internet Explorer. This is irrelevant. Skype depends on Internet Explorer.

Hi Ruwim
Thanks a lot for your support. If IE is compulsory then that explains why my skype doesnt work.
I guess including this in the system requirements will spare you guys a lot of the same questions
I will find an alternative.
Have a lovely day and once again thanks for the help

Try this Lessmsi method:

Be aware that if you want to install the currently latest 7.0.0.102 version, then you should use SkypeSetup_7.0.0.102.msi file in order to extract Skype.exe and Login.cab files.
SkypeSetup_7.0.0.102.msi file can be downloaded using this link:
http://download.skype.com/msi/SkypeSetup_7.0.0.102.msi
Note that should not run the SkypeSetup_7.0.0.102.msi but save this file to a folder on your computer.
Using Lessmsi application you should extract Skype.exe and Login.cab files from this saved msi-file and then paste these 2 files to Skype installation folder.

Hi there, using Skype 7.4.0.102, Win 8.1 and IE 11. Skype worked fine when I installed it, even used it a day or two. Now when I start it, it comes up with the splash screen and the circle keeps going around. Never connects. I'm using Webroot Antivirus software.
As the busy doctor says "Small fevers greatly appreciated"!

ERROR MESSAGE -`SKYPE CANT CONNECT`` - GET HELP H...

URGENT HELP PLEASE! I CANNOT ACCESS SKYPE
Since yesterday 22 April 2014 - I am getting the same error message.
the skype help connection wizard gives 2 options:
1. contact network administration;
2. restart skype wait 2 minutes for it to reconnect automatically.
This I have done dozens of times and it doesnt happen. I am still without skype connection and have money invested in their account.
My question: is there anyone I can contact by mail, phone, at SKYPE ADMINISTRATION to solve this problem soon? I need to contact my handicapped son everyday through Skype we live in different countries, he needs my help daily.
I don´t know what else to do or who to ask for help.
Thanks a million for any hints.
Tessa

Go to your "screen settings". then chose "find screen" then you vill find the prosjector.
this will probably fix your problem.
if this dont works can it be something wrong with your adapter.

Cant connect my ios devices to my mac book air

I cant connect my IOS devices (iphone 4s + ipad 2) to my macbook air mid/2013 by usb or bluetooth.
when connecting by usb the devices dose not charge or sync with itunes. it charges for split a second and disconnect anther time and it go forever in the his loop.
I tried using two cables.
The devices are working on my windows pc.
my macbook works with usb sticks and other android phones.
note:
-both devices are on ios 8.1
-my macbook is on Yosemite
-my ipad 2 worked well before updating my mac to yosemite

iPods that have the Window format should continue to work on a Mac, because Macs can read/write the Windows format used on iPods. (The opposite is not true - Windows cannot read the Mac format.)
You can change the formatting, by doing a Restore on the iPod, but that is done in iTunes, so iTunes needs to see the iPod when you connect it. The Restore will also erase the iPod.
Since it continues to work on your friends Windows PC, your iPod itself is probably OK, so you may want to first look at the connection to the Mac.
Did you use the same USB docking cable when you connected it to your friend's PC? If so, you can rule out the USB cable as the cause. If not, it's possible that your USB cable is faulty.
If you are connecting the iPod to a USB hub, try a direct connection to the Mac's USB port. If other USB devices are connected at the same time, try disconnecting the other devices (except for standard keyboard and mouse if normally used). You may also want to shut down (power off) the Mac, if you have not done so in a while. Also, do this to Reset the iPod

Start up the Mac, run iTunes, and connect the iPod by itself to a direct USB port.

You do not need the Setup Assistant; in fact, you do not need any software on an external hard drive. I have two LaCie's; I erased the drive as soon as I plugged it in. You will need to format it anyway because most hard drives come Windows formatted. So, if you only want to use it with the Mac, highlight it in Disk Utility and choose Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as the format and the GUID Partition scheme under Options. While doing that, it will erase the drive (and get rid of the LaCie software) - once finished, your drive is ready to use for Time Machine or any other backup plans you have for it.

Call Apple anyway. If the device was ever registered with then they will have the serial # on file and can look you up by other info such as your name or phone number.
To re-enable an iPad any computer with iTunes should work. However, if your data was not backed up to iCloud you will not be able to access it until you get back to your home computer.

Is it a new drive or do you already have data on it ? If it is a new one, you might just want to format it with the Disk Utility else try to check the partition with the disk utility, your partition could be damaged.
