Skype disappeared after update

Hi,
I am on Windows 8.1. I am using the desktop version of Skype. So yesterday, when I opened Skype, it was automatically updating...then an error message popped up "C:\Program Files (x86)\Skype\Phone is not accessable. You do not have the right privileges to access this". And then Skype disappeared completely from my computer. So I contacted your support and chatted with a representative. They remotely accessed my computer and we tried everything. The person suggested that we should do "System Restore", and we were able to do that until 8 hours or so before the update occured. Everything was fixed. I opened Skype and signed in yesterday. It was all okay. Today, I opened my computer and while I was logging into Skype...it started updating. And the same thing happened! What should I do now?

I disagree.
My antivirus log does not show such entry, nor system restore was did.
I think that Skype update uninstalls the old version, and does not install the new one.
I have several computers running Windows 8.1 Pro, and until this time I've experienced this behaviour (folder does not exist in C:\Program Files (x86)) on two of them.

Try this Skype removal tool.

Here comes the/my solution:
Remove Sophos Antivirus
Thanks to boojum's remarks in https://discussions.apple.com/message/15480849#15480849 !
Don't forget to use Sophos' deinstall package: /Macintosh HD/Library/Sophos Anti-Virus/Remove Sophos Anti-Virus.pkg
Nevertheless, some settings have been re-initialized (no complete list!):
- Dock
- Language has been reset to English only
- Expose & Spaces
(- probably all personal settings?)

The playlists I created have disappeared after updating to iOS 7.1. I have not backed up this phone to a computer - only backing up with iCloud. Is there a way to recover my playlists?

Dictation in text message = Does not work
Speaking with Siri via activated with Home button = Does not work
Speaking with Siri with "Raise to Speak' = WORKS
Voice Memos = WORKS
Speaker phone on call = WORKS
Voice control instead of Siri = WORKS
I've tried hard reset, settings reset, wiping and reloading backup...nothing. Was hoping 7.1 might offer some respite, but no dice....
I was hoping 7.1 would somehow solve it.

Apps don't disappear after updating

My updated apps don't disappear after updating concludes on my iPad. I noticed that this only started happening after installation of iOS7.

Hi Aleagle,
Just so you know, the reason this was changed for iOS 7 was in conjunction with the Automatic Update feature that was also introduced with iOS 7. If updates to apps are being done automatically, then you would have no way to know what apps were updated or when. This new list in the Updates tab was added to provide the update history information.
Cheers,

HT1937 MY CONTACTACTS DISAPPEARED AFTER UPDATING

my iphone contact disappeared after updating...what should i do

I'm not sure why you thought you could get an intelligent answer with your question that provides absolutely no details.
With what program are you synching your contacts?
Have you restored from backup?
Are your contacts on your computer?

Text in purchased book disappeared after update

I just updated my iPad to 5.1.1 and iBooks to 2.1.1. After updating and synching to my iMac, I opened a book that I had purchased one month ago and had been reading. All the text had disappeared. I had nothing but blank pages except for the title page and the table of contents. I went to purchased to try to download it again but the "purchased" tab was grayed out. I couldn't find a way to activate it. I tried resetting by holding in the sleep and on/off buttons for 10 - 15 seconds but it didn't change anything. I tried re-synching with my iMac -- my books are backed up on it -- but that didn't restore the text either. Can anyone help?

Did you delete the book before you tried to download it again?
In bookshelf view - tap the edit button - tap on the book and then tap delete. In list view - swipe across the book and the red dlete button will opo up.
Perhaps quitting iBooks completely and restarting the iPad would help as well.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

Purchased ringtones disappeared after update to IOS 8.1.1 on iPhone 5c

Hello,
could someone help me? I purchased some ringtones from store a week ago, but after update to IOS 8.1.1 all bought songs disappeared from my iPhone 5c.
The songs I bought before I visit in store and I can bought and pay it again. Where is the problem?
Thank you.

I have same issue. I have done the checklist from iMore website -- all techniques do not work. I followed the steps, but the "remove and sync" does not appear. I also did "restore from backup"; still did not work. The ringtones were NOT restored on my iPhone 6 (iOS 8.1.1).
Apple will have to do another update to fix this issue and refund the purchase.

All my camera photos was disappear after update Album app

After updated Album app version 5.4.A.0.20 from update center, all photos which took by Xperia Z1 was disappear! only left photo which transfer from old phone and edited photo. i had restart my Z1 and still the same. by the way, my camera is directly save into SD card. anybody know how to recover it?

You could try going to Settings - Apps then swipe to All and look for the Album app then open it and tap on Clear cache and reboot your phone - Do not tap on Clear data - or you could try deleting the .Thumbnail folder which may be hidden but using an app like a file explorer and choosing show hidden files will show the folder then it's a case of deleting and again rebooting your phone

Covers of buyed music disappears after update software

A lot of covers of my buyed songs disappears after I updated iphone software to iSO 8 and I can recover it.
Can anybody help me?

I've had the same problem and i posted about it a few hours ago. What i did was just restore my iPhone which was pretty a pain in the ***. if that doesn't work, then try deleting purchases from your iPhone and download it again through you iPhone on the purchased section of iTunes.

Check the Mac's startup disk just in case. Launch Disk Utility (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left then select the First Aid tab.
Click: Verify Disk (not Verify Disk Permissions). If the startup disk needs repairing, follow the instructions for Using Disk Utility to Verify or Repair Disks

IPhone 4 apps disappear after updating to iOS 5

Two people, one of them my sister, has reported that after updating to iOS 5 some of her apps have disappeared from the phone. I had not such thing other than iOS 5 loading all of the ones in my iTunes. Just wondering if this is happening to others too.

I too spoke to Apple in their store. They also told me it was a unique problem. They said that if it was encrypted and I didn't have the password I would have to start again "/ I have been able to get my contacts, music and apps back but the messages and pictures/videos appear to have gone forever. The advisor told me that the pictures shouldn't even be encrypted and should appear in 'iPod Photo Cache' but that folder hasn't been updated since March! I'm just relieved to have gotten my phone out of configuration mode lol!
Thanks for the update! :)

Contacts disappear after updating to IOS 7

Hello,
iam using iphone 4s and after i updated to ios 7 all the contacts has disappear, even if i restore them from the back up or wrote them again the same thing happen always after i period of time.
i had read some topics about the same problem that happened after updating to IOS 5 and 6 but all the solutions didn't worked with my iphone, please i need your help !

I am having same problem and if you loose 450 contacts its maddening enough to consider changing to another platform.
In my case iPhone 4S - problems started after iOS7 update - on the computer all contacts appear under header iCloud (there is no longer an option of "On my Mac" that I seem to remember from earlier times).
My phone cannot access the numbers, do not seem to maintain them on the phone solidly...
Any suggestions?
