Skype for Windows Phone 8.1 crashes every time

Hello, i'm having problems with skype on my wp. Whenever someone calls me, or sends me a message it crashes and I can't re-open it until I restart my wp. Also I don't receive calls, just sometimes and the tasks are so slow that I can't do anything when I click for example to slide to the chat tab during a call, it simply bugs and I can't use it more until it fixes itself ( Wich takes a lot of time ).
How did this pass your tests? Also it's not the latest version only, it's since last year.
Thanks in advance.

Did you tried hard reset?

  • I just downloaded the latest version of itunes for Windows and now itunes crashes every time i launch it

    I just downloaded the latest version of iTunes for Windows and now iTunes crashes everytime I launch it.  I have tried re-downloading and selecting Repair with no luck.  Any suggestions?
    thanks

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
    If you've already tried a complete uninstall and reinstall try opening iTunes in safe mode (hold down CTRL+SHIFT as you start iTunes) then going to Edit > Preferences > Store and turning off Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases. You may find iTunes will now start normally.

  • Skype for Windows Phone idea: Make it work

    [Topic title updated by moderator to be more descriptive. Original topic title was: "Re: Submit: Great Skype for Windows Phone ideas"]
    Oh, here's a brilliant idea - make it work. Simple enough?
    Fix resuming the app. Make it fast enough so I can actually pick up a call.
    Decrease battery drain. Currently when using skype my battery usage sometimes reaches 65% per hour. It's not even ridiculous anymore.
    I'm not asking much, I don't need calling skype-skype a pleasant experience. Just make it work without requiring 1Gb/s bandwidth and quad-core processor with 8GB RAM.
    Last but not least - make SkypeOut not a theoretical feature to lure people into paying subscription but something that actually works at least half the time.
    I'm really not asking anything fancy like deleting some old messages or other things people mention. Just the basics of a communication app.
    The funny thing is that we all know you don't give a s* about what we are putting here. Nobody's gonna read it anyway.
    It's sad. I used to like skype, before the mobile revolution. Now... Just keep it going the way it's going and in two, three years you'll be a history like Blackberry or AOL

    As for those "smaller improvements" I think everyone will agree with me that they are way too small, and they take much too long. I mean, seriously, 65% per hour battery drain! I am yet to find an app, ANY app that would be even remotely close to your "achievements". With improvements that small and slow I guess in 5 years skype will be using only 30% battery every hour. If I'm not expecting to be next to a power outlet within an hour or two I'm not even trying to use skype anymore. Exactly the same applies to resuming the app. I understand that there are some improvements but honestly improving by 50 ms is not an improvement that any user would appreciate. Again, in this matter skype is probably the worst or one of the worst among all communication apps in WP store. And it's not like it's a new app. Those "improvements" (exactly the same) have been announced from the very beginning and yet they are virtually unnoticable for an average user. Like I said before, sometimes it's impossible to answer a call because it takes too long to resume skype. And any improvement that doesn't make it possible is not really an improvement, from a user's point of view.
    I really hope this changes and next fixes will be dramatic.
    Now, SkypeOut problem. I cannot agree that it has anything to do with a carrier I'm trying to call. Here's why:
    1. I'm calling the same people from desktop app, from metro app on my tablets and from my phone. Desktop - no problems whatsoever, Metro - pretty much good as well, Windows Phone - unusable most times.
    2. When I try to call people from phone - it doesn't work at all, I tether a laptop/tablet to the phone, thus virtually using the same connection (ATT) - magically it starts working perfectly fine.
    3. I'm calling landlines and all cellular carriers in Poland. Problems are with ALL of them using Windows Phone, and there are no problems using any other platform while calling exactly the same phone numbers. So, unless you have a problem with Poland in general, it wouldn't make any sense to blame the carriers.
    4. For some reason, sometimes it actually works on the phone. But only sometimes.
    Also, I noticed this behavior on Windows Phone:
    1. SkypeOut works bad no matter what internet connection I'm using, whether it's 2Mb/s or 100Mb/s it's just a disaster (most of the times), and whether it's wifi or cellular.
    2. Video calls quality is very poor also on both - wifi and cellular.
    3. Voice calls are actually not that bad. Assuming that I can start the app before they hang up
    I'm using Lumia 920 so I hope this phone is not too weak for your app. If it is - you're killing yourself limiting only to owners of the very newest phones packed with the best hardware available.

  • Submit: Great Skype for Windows Phone ideas

    We have just launched a new Windows Phone idea board to let you all share and exchange your ideas on how to improve and develop Skype for Windows Phone.
    Before you start sharing your ideas, here are some guidelines to help you get started:
    Idea Submission Guidelines
    Search before posting. Do a quick search and make sure you are not submitting a duplicate. If the idea already exists show your support by giving kudos to the original idea rather than watering down the potential impact across multiple submissions.
    Draft your idea. Be as clear as possible, tell us what your idea is, how it would benefit users and why you think we should consider it. That will not only help us to better understand what you want, but we may even be able to solve your problem more quickly another way. Please avoid text speak and keep the idea short and to the point. Ideas are available within a limited number of topic sections of the community as they are not discussion threads.
    Currently you can choose one of the following topic labels for your ideas:
    Video Messaging
    We‘ve just launched Video Messaging on Windows Phone so you can now send video messages to family and friends, even when they’re not online. Let us know what you think of Video Messaging on Windows Phone and any ideas you have for how we can make it better. 
    Phone Integration
    Tell us how you would like Skype to be integrated with Windows Phone. Would things be easier if Skype was better integrated with the People Hub? Integrated into the messaging app? Or in the dial pad? 
    Contacts
    How can we make it easier for you to find friends and family on Skype and add them as a contact? What are your thoughts on how contacts are managed on Skype for Windows Phone? Do you have any recommended improvements?
    Calling
    Tell us how you would like Skype to be integrated with Windows Phone. Would things be easier if Skype was better integrated with the People Hub? Integrated into the messaging app? Or in the dial pad? 
    Instant Messaging
    Video calling is one of Skype’s most popular features. What do/don’t you like about Video calling on Skype for Windows Phone and do you have any ideas for how we can make video calling even better? 
    Some things to include:
    Start with a clear title
    add appropriate label(s)
    list features and benefits
    Review the ideas of others. Look at other ideas to see what your fellow community members are requesting and feel free to exchange on them in the comments section. While we take into account the numbers of kudos an idea receives, we also consider the amount and quality of member feedback when making our decisions.
    Add value. Vote for those items that you like and agree with by giving the idea a kudos. It's really a significant way to recognize someone's effort. We are using votes as a barometer to find out more about what our contributor community thinks is important, so we can factor this into our prioritization process.
    Submit a new idea. Adding an idea is just like posting a message on a board. To create an idea, click on the “New Idea” button, located on the left side of the page content tab, and in the left column under the actions heading click “create an idea”. Be sure to enter a clear title and description of your idea so others can decide how they would like to vote. Remember, the more complete your thought, the more likely it is to get noticed! You can use simple HTML, format the text, or add links or images. You can also preview your idea and check your spelling before you post the idea.
    Do not be discouraged. Sometimes what seems simple may not be so simple to build. Some ideas take longer than others, and some ideas will not be possible within the scope of what we want to accomplish in the next year or so.
    Be respectful. Comply with the Community Guidelines and Skype etiquette.

    If I am not comfortable submitting my idea over the Internet, is there another way I can do so?
    No.

    I would really appreciate if you guys work on the feature “ custom backgrounds for chat notifications”.If users will be able to choose any image of their liking in the custom background feature if would add value. Currently some of the chat messengers provide this facility to the users which makes interesting to the users while improving user friendliness and satisfaction. Options that would include areTake a photoChoose from albumsSearch from webDeleteThat appears to be a reasonably robust selection. In search, a user can use a built in engine to pull up images based on search and then select it as it their choice. Once you chose an image, it will be asked to confirm and ‘set’ as the universal chat window for all contacts. 

  • New Skype Emoji not appearing on Skype for Windows Phone

    Posted here because I couldn't select "Skype for mobile" in the Windows 10 Edge browser... I've noticed that emoji like (Windows10) do not appear in Skype on Windows Phone.  Instead, I see an empty white box.  I also don't see the text of the emoji. Seems like an issue with Skype for Windows Phone where the app understands that (Windows10) is an emoji, but can't find the image to display.   

    Please,  run the DirectX diagnostics tool (32-bit option only).
    Go to Windows Start and in the Run box type dxdiag.exe and press the OK button. This will start the DirectX diagnostics program. Run this diagnostics and save the results to a file. Please, attach this file to your post.

    Is it ok to reply to this topic? There isn't a warning against it...
    But I wanted to complain about all the stupid questions in the survey. You keep repeating the same "is this too polite?" stuff. I don't care about any of this. What I care about is how terribly laggy and unresponsive this app is on my Lumia.
    Oh, and the fact that it is constantly online even when I'm not using it is also terrible.
    Seriously, I'm using a WINDOWS PHONE, MICROSOFT'S OS! Why is Skype so bad on it?!

  • Skype for Windows Phone Sign-In Process Changes

    Today we’re releasing an update for Skype for Windows Phone with some changes to the way you sign in. To help you get started, we’ve put together this short guide.
    What’s changing and why?
    Instead of having to remember a Microsoft account for your Windows Phone and a separate Skype Name and password, all users will now only need their Microsoft Account to sign in to Skype for Windows Phone. You’ll also benefit from added security, privacy and improved password recovery.
    Learn more about what’s changing in today’s update.
    What does the change mean for me?
    When you sign in for the first time after the update, we’ll prompt you to sign in with your Microsoft account.
    If this is the first time you’ve signed in with your Microsoft account, we’ll ask you to link it to an existing Skype account.
    If you’re already using your Microsoft Account to sign in to any version of Skype, then you won’t need to link your accounts again.
    How does this work with multiple accounts?
    This is a link between one Microsoft account and one Skype account. We recommend you link the Microsoft account you use on your Windows Phone with the Skype account you want to use on that device.
    What happens if I linked the wrong accounts?
    Not to worry, you can unlink your Microsoft account from your Skype account at any time. You’ll then be asked to link your Microsoft account again the next time you sign in on your Windows Phone.
    Learn more about unlinking your Microsoft and Skype accounts.
    What if I don’t remember my Microsoft account details?
    You can find the Microsoft account that you use on your Windows Phone by going to the Start screen, swiping from the right and selecting Settings > email+accounts.
    Once you have your Microsoft account email address, you can then recover your password if you don’t remember it.
    Where can I go with questions or feedback?
    You’re already in the right place on the Skype Community. Please ask your question or leave your feedback on today’s update in the comments.

    Does the above quote  mean you can only use one skype account on your windows phone if I link my skype account that was set up with yahoo mail to my windows phone Microsoft account which is the same for logging in to my laptop that has windows 8.1 installed on it.
    What i would like to do is to be able to sign in with either which I could do before the app update. The Microsoft one Is for personal use and the yahoo one is for work. I would like to keep them separate and does it mean nobody else can sign into their skype accounts  on my phone if its not linked to my Microsoft account.
    Hope this makes sense. 
    You can still use several Skype accounts on your phone, but you can link one Skype account to one Microsoft account.
    If the Microsoft account you have for personal use is already linked to a personal Skype account, then you can simply use the Microsoft accont to log into the phone.
    I understand your work Skype account is not yet linked to a Microsoft account? If you do not have a second Microsoft account to link to this work Skype account, then you can create a new Microsoft account and link to your work Skype account to be able to log into the phone with this account.
    You can sign into Skype with any Microsoft account, does not have to be the one that is used to set up the phone.

  • I have an iPad 1 and after I got the latest update for keynote and Now  it crashes every time I try to open it

    I have an iPad 1 and after I got the latest update for keynote and Now  it crashes every time I try to open it

    Do you have iOS 5.1.1 on your original iPad? If not update the iOS.
    You might also try quitting the app and then reset the pad.
    Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
    Still no joy? Delete the Keynote app, reset the iPad and then reinstall Keynote. You will not have to pay for downloading it again.

  • Skype for Windows Phone 7

    I use a lumia 710 purchased two years back. Within 3 months of buying it, Windows 8 came to market. I believed in Windows Phone because of good battery back up and durability. Windows 7 is no longer considered by any application developers. I can't even install uber app. Most apps are developed for Windows 8. While other developers ignore Windows 7 users, how can MICROSOFT DEVELOPERS ignore us ? I cannot install SKYPE in Lumia 710. Why is the app not available for us? The app was available earlier in Windows Market Place, but no longer for Windows 7. Is that a way of forcing Windows 7 users to change to 8 ? Then why not give the option of upgrading OS. I asked the Nokia care centre and I am told, it cannot be done. Why force us to change phones just because apps are not available? Why not continue atleast Microscoft service related apps for Windows 7 ? I read in another post in the forum, that skype is not supported in Lumia 510 due to hardware issues. If it is so, then how was the app available earlier ???

    Very very disappointed. Sorry about windows phone. I have argued quit a lot with friends. Trying to convince them that WP are extremely good and nice to work with. Unfortunately they keep telling me about the poor apps of WP. Unfortunately I can now start seeing the problem. Guess what, I wasconsidering of buying my father a WP. Guess what. I will probably stick to android. Badly played about that. Farewell. Disappointed 7.8 WP customer from Athens Greece.

  • Skype for Windows Phone

    I signed into Skype on my desktop using my Windows Live Id. This works. Next, I'm trying to sign into Skype on my Windows 7.5 Mobile Phone. Entering my Skypename (= part of email address part before the @hotmail.com - I can see that on my desktop) and Live password fails time after time. Also after trying again after a few days. Today I tried to reset my Skype account password. That failed too. The token that was emailed to me by Skype was unrecognised by Skype, probably be a cause it relates to the passwrod reset of an "original" Skype account, I guess I have some kind of "slave" account on Skype which is derived from my Windows Live account. Bottom line : logon to Skype with a Windows Live account on a Nokia Lumia 800 - Windows 7.5 phone does not seem to work. Replies welocome at [email protected]

    Same problem here.  Apparently accounts converted from Microsoft Live ID's don't have a Skype Name, otherwise I wouldn't be getting this error when I try to recover my Skype Name:  "Sorry that password token is not recognized, please try entering it again or get another password token."  And obviously without a Skype Name I can't log into Skype on my Windows Phone 7.5.  Nice oversight, Microsoft.

  • ITunes on Windows Vista...Crashes Every Time

    Hi.
    I just purchased an ipod nano and installed itunes on my PC (windows vista).  It worked the first time but would crash 1/4 of the way through syncing my library to my ipod. 
    Now itunes just crashes/freezes/is completely unresponsive as soon as I open it either my clicking the icon or by plugging in the ipod.
    Completely unimpressed...I have owned 10+ phones/mp3 players in the past and have never had an issue (hadn't been using itunes) with transferring files, etc.
    How do I fix itunes?
    I updated Quicktime and iTunes...Quicktime is working fine on its own.

  • Skype (for Windows 8)

    Skype (for Windows  Setup/Signup
    As with every modern Windows 8 app, you acquire and install Skype from the Windows Store. This means updates are handled by the Store, but it also means you can’t install it from a disc or USB stick if you have no internet connection. After the quick installation, you click its large familiar-logoed tile on the Start screen to get going. On first run, the app asked permission to use my webcam and microphone, and then to let it run in the background.Then of course, I had to sign in to my Skype account. If you don’t have a Skype account yet, you can use the Microsoft Account you used to sign into the Windows 8 PC, and if you do, you can merge the two accounts, which I did. This adds the large number of Windows Messenger users into the fold of potential conversation partners. One limitation in this version of Skype is that it doesn’t let someone else easily sign into Skype for a quick call on your machine. The friend could create and sign into a separate Microsoft account on the Windows 8 PC, but that’s far less simple than the guest sign-in available in most other Skype clients. Interface and Using
    Skype for Windows 8 sports the full-screen, touch-appropriate interface conventions you find in all good new-style Windows 8 apps. You’ll start out in the Skype Home screen, which is divided into three main zones—recent, favorites, and people. The first two are pretty obvious, displaying overviews of your recent conversations and large tiles for your favorite contacts. Touching or clicking the People section head opens a grid of small tiles for all your contacts. Unfortunately, you have to scroll through to find a particular one: at this stage, Skype for Windows 8 doesn’t support the Search charm, which for most apps lets you search whatever is searchable in the running app. Further, you can’t sort contacts into groups such as “saved phone numbers” or create custom groups of contacts. But it is easy enough to see who’s online and who’s a Favorite.    Skype does go further than many others with its Windows 8 integration by inserting itself into the People app, meaning you can start conversations—either IM, voice, or video—from within this main contacts hub of the OS. As with other well-behaved Windows 8 app, swiping up from the bottom of the screen or right clicking the mouse brings up and app bar of choices across the bottom of the screen. In Skype’s case, you get buttons for adding a contact and adding a phone number. When you’re on a contact’s profile page, the app bar lets you favorite her or him, view the profile in People, or delete them. Skype for Window 8 also lets you make calls to landlines and cell phones if you have some Skype credit in your account. Rates are very reasonable. To start making a phone call, you click the telephone receiver button next to the Skype logo on the home page, which presents a large dial keypad, along with a summary of your account balance and recent calls. The call quality at this point is very nearly landline quality, and in most cases better than cell service.  

    Not sure where you're getting your data, Entegy, but I have found Skype to work quite well, especially considering the cost.  It's less buggy than a lot of expensive software.
    I've been collaborating using Skype for some 7 or 8 years now, often in tandem with screen-sharing software, and sometimes on calls that last all day with folks on Macs and PCs alike, even iPads.  I've transferred files with it from bytes to gigabytes
    without error. 
    Skype is not without a few little glitches but I count it amongst the top productivity applications I've ever used.  It has always "just worked" for me.  Perhaps it has to do with how tightly you run your ship when it comes to keeping
    your computer well-maintained.
    Why would anyone consider installing Skype for Windows 8 while the Windows desktop
    version is still available.  What could a person possibly hope to gain by trying to use the Metro/Modern side of Windows?
    I just installed the Skype Windows desktop version 6.3.59.105 on my Windows 8 test system and it works just fine.
