This is extremely frustrating. Can someone please assist me with this issue.

I imagine 3d stereoscopic being enabled or playing Nvidia gamewoks-based games probably use that as a dependency. You can always run msconfig from the run box and uncheck things that load at startup. Since that file is not in use all the time something is loading it in memory then the crash occurs because it probably get unexpectedly unloaded. Many times this can be due to your sleep settings in Window or your BIOS (or BIOS issues), and other times mix/match driver issues. You might consider doing a clean install of the Nvidia drivers (checking the box for clean install) and installing only the basic components (none of the add-ons like shadowplay) and see if that helps.I have already clean installed my nvidia drivers, I used DDU to wipe them. I also only ever install the driver itself, and uncheck all other options.I have my power options set to Never sleep, and 20minutes to turn off the display.I'm not exactly sure what startup options I should be looking for in msconfig, I think I've already unchecked everything I don't need.It's just strange how this only just recently started happening, I didn't have an issue before. I also don't recall updating anything recently unless it was done through Windows Updates.

Skype crashing when starting a call

This is my first post ever. I've done everything I can to see and fix why my Skype client keep crashing when trying to start or accept a call. I've update my drivers, uninstalled and reinstalled and such, but still nothing. I want to fix this as soon as I can, since I use skype almost everyday.
I've attched a DxDiag file so see if anyone one can help.
Solved!

IPhone 6 seems to crash when making phone call from Mac

When using my iPhone 6 Plus to make phone calls from the Macintosh, (initiating call from Mac Contacts app in Yosemite) the iPhone continually brings up the Apple logo and does a quick restart over and over again. The phone call, however seems to work, but it's just that the iPhone looks as if it's going crazy showing the Apple logo and then the home screen over and over again. This had worked initially, but not anymore. Both iPhone 6 and MacBookPro up to date with updates.

If you never find an app that will do it then you could have a go at making one yourself-I don't think you need to pay Apple as long as you don't want to sell it.

Hi there
I upgraded to the latest Skype v7.6.64.105 - ever since my Skype crashes when I make a call - oddly I get "not responding" but the call continues - I cannot press any Skype buttons during this time - when the call ends - the other person needs to hang up - then my Skype crashes and needs to restart.
I've uninstalled, restarted, reinstalled.
Cleared the %appdata% Skype folder - renamed this folder - had Skype recreate this folder.
I've done a system restore - same issue - then uninstalled/reinstalled.
Windows was upto date prior to system restore - then performed updates again.
My video drivers are up to date. Checked dell for updates - updated bios.
Reading on other boards - people are advised to run DxDiag - which I did and have attached. Skype seems to continue to work as expected when only using 'chat' - not audio.My audio devices drivers are up to date too?
I am at a loss now - please can you help? Faulting application name: Skype.exe, version: 7.6.64.105, time stamp: 0x55916aec

Skype is crashing on Intel graphics driver. The error message indicates that the issue is with "Switching Graphics" (NVIDIA <-> Intel). There are no driver updates available for Windows 8.1 for your laptop on the Dell site. However, you can try to update the NVIDIA NVS 4200M driver directly from the NVIDIA site. http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/86814/en-us

Skype crashing when receiving calls or making calls (update 7.2)

Skype Crashes when using video connection

Skype crashes when I attempt to use video.
I can establish a voice connection with my contact, and all works fine if we are not using video. The moment I enable video in the session, Skype crashes. This is repeatable. The other end does not need to use video, just when I enable it at my end.
I have gone into settings and the video seems to be working fine with my iSight built in camera.
I am using OS X Yosemite latest version, and also the latest version of Skype. I downloaded a fresh copy of Skype, and the problem is the same. The camera is the built in iSight camera on my mid-2007 iMac.

The same happens to me. Voice-only calls work just fine, but the moment I try to enable video - Skype 7.0. (653) crashes.
I use iMac7,1 (Mid2007) with Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite. Any help would be appreciated (logs attached). Jacek

On IPhone 5S, when making cell calls, it connects to FaceTime.

On IPhone 5S, IOS 7.1.2, when making cell calls, it connects to FaceTime.

Hey there siteshop,
It sounds like you are still hearing the phone line ringing even after the person you call answers the line. I would try the troubleshooting outlined in this article:
iPhone: Troubleshooting issues making or receiving calls
https://support.apple.com/kb/TS3406
Toggle airplane mode: Tap Settings > Enable Airplane Mode, wait five seconds, then turn off airplane mode.
Ensure that your software is up to date:
Check for a carrier settings update.
Check for an iOS software update.
Note: Some updates may require a Wi-Fi connection.
If the iPhone has a SIM card, reseat the SIM card.
If the iPhone 4 or iPhone 4s is on the Verizon network, dial *228 from the iPhone and select option 2 to update the Preferred Roaming List (PRL). The PRL determines the cellular towers the phone uses for cellular service, selecting those with the best signal strength.
Reset the network settings: Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Try to make or receive calls in another location.
Attempt to isolate to one network band:
If you're having the issue on LTE, disable LTE, if possible, and try again.
If you're having the issue on 3G/4G, disable 3G/4G, if possible, and try again.
Contact the carrier to check the following:
Your account is properly configured to use the specific iPhone that has the issue.
There are no localized service outages.
Your account doesn't have a billing-related block.
Your calls don't have errors on the carrier system.
Restore the phone as new.
If the above steps don't resolve the issue, go to an Apple Retail Store, carrier, Apple Authorized Reseller, or contact AppleCare to send the phone in for service.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

HI I have an Iphone 3GS and the microphone jack works when I play music but not when making phone calls. please help as I use it for conference calls

Hi I use my phone for conference calls and use the microphone jack to connect to speakers. It doesnt work when making phone calls but when i play music on the phone the jack works with the external speaker.

Happy to have been of help. Hope all goes smoothly.
BTW, for the sake of others who may help you here, it's usually most polite if you mark the post that answered your question as being the one that "solves" it, not your own post. That's how people get points here, if a questioner marks their post as either "helpful" or "solving". It's not an issue for me, but for those just starting out in the forums it may be important to them. See:

TS4079 Siri used to work fine when making mobile calls in Ecuador until yesterday, when the administration of Ecuador added an aditional number in all mobile numbers existing in Ecuador. Since then Siri is unable to make any mobile calls with any new numb

Siri used to work fine when making mobile calls in Ecuador until yesterday, when the administration of Ecuador added an aditional number in all mobile numbers existing in Ecuador. Since then Siri is unable to make any mobile calls with any new number.Help
I`ve tried restarting, rebooting, nothing works.
The interesting thing is that SIRI can call to previous mobile numbers (without the new digit) obviously not connecting , and, can call to any other numbers as an office or home number. So the problem is the new digit in the mobile number

Ecuador has added an extra digit to mobile phone numbers but apple wont accept 10 digit phone numbers so we cant use facetime or apple IM or verify our new phone numbers. ( and Siri won't work either!) I have contacted apple support online but can't request a call back as the apple system says our new phone numbers are invalid. I am going to phone them tomorrow and you should complain too at http://www.apple.com/support/contact/. . The more people that bring this to their attention the faster it will get fixed
